Bab 526: Let's Keep Going

[Nefertiti & Hecate's POV]

The two girls pressed on through the forest, surrounded by the ominous roars of unseen beasts. Nefertiti took the lead, and after a while, she spotted a clearing in the distance. She turned to Hecate and suggested, "There's a clearing nearby. Let's check it out."

The moon elf nodded in agreement and trailed after the succubus. Upon entering the clearing, they found it devoid of life. As they cautiously explored the clearing, a sudden rustle of leaves and a gentle breeze announced the arrival of an unexpected visitor.

Before they could react, a mysterious woman appeared from the forest, causing the two girls to jump. The lady regarded them calmly and said, "Fear not, travelers. I mean you no harm."

Despite the initial scare, Nefertiti and Hecate sensed no immediate danger. The woman continued, "I've been watching, and it's unsafe here. Monsters lurk in these woods. Follow me, and I'll guide you to safety."
