Bab 251: Saving the Queen 17

After finishing our meal, Elena and I emerged from the shelter of the cave, ready to continue our journey towards the heart of the northern lands. Despite our determination, our progress had been hindered by a myriad of challenges, causing significant delays along the way.

Traversing the rugged mountainous terrain and navigating through treacherous snowstorms had tested our resolve, while our encounters with monsters and demonic entities further impeded our advance. Though the frequency of demon attacks had diminished since our journey began, their continued presence remained a persistent annoyance.

Despite my initial reluctance, I found myself shouldering much of the responsibility for Elena's well-being. While her divine heritage bestowed upon her extraordinary abilities, even she was not immune to the harsh realities of our environment.
