Each night, he would come back to the wonderous forest realm, exhausted but determined to continue the next day.
Eve watched him with adoration and a hint of worry. She knew how important this task was to him, but she also saw how it was taking a toll on his mind. She tried to encourage him, reminding him of the progress he had made so far and how he was getting closer to his goal every day.
Twenty-seven days passed...
A figure appeared on the couch of the Empress Villa, he looked around but the bedroom was quiet, and there was no sign of Lia or anyone else.
The boy remembered what had Lia told him earlier that the three sisters would be going out today. They were probably out shopping for the upcoming banquet, which was only a day away.
Rio wasn't entirely sure when they would be back, but he didn't mind. He was content to relax after spending the day searching for black-stage beasts in the laughing alligator forest.
