Chapitre 465: Quarrel Among Sisters

As soon as the Village Chief stepped into the hut, his gaze was immediately drawn to the bustling activity within. 

He recognized several faces among the figures busy grinding herbs, shouting at each other, or tidying the surroundings. The air was thick with tension, and an eerie silence hung among the gathered tree nymphs, who appeared to be protecting someone. He immediately figured that someone was Overseer Anara.

The Village Chief reached out and stopped a man who hurried past him, demanding, "What's happening here?"

Initially annoyed by the interruption, the man's demeanour shifted to one of fear when he saw that it was the Village Chief who had accosted him. He stammered in response, "Overseer Anara... She's... She's about to give birth."

A gust of wind seemed to slap the Village Chief's ears as he stood in stunned silence. His grip on the man involuntarily slackened, and he watched as the man scurried away, looking back in terror.
