章 888: Do You Think Ella Will Scold Us

[Nala & Halime's POV]

While covering her head with a scarf, leaving her yellow snake eyes on show, she spoke in a breathless voice as they ran through the forest: "I know, Nala. Slow down; you're walking too fast."

The lioness turned to her with glowing blue eyes, ''Sorry. I'm excited to go wild in a city, especially the Novgorodians who have attacked us many times. It feels good getting some revenge.''

Halime nodded as they left the forest behind and saw rolling grasslands covered in fields that were being tended to by the farmers. The duo walked toward the road and saw a group of adventurers passing by.

Three men and two women that looked to be a few years older than them. Nala looked at Halime. ''They will invite us to join them. Should we use them as cover to get into the city?''
