Chapter 90: Eyes

“Good… heavens…” we panted when we finally entered the forest.

“Why haven’t I realized it?” Rio said, frowning. “I still have my forest.” she said and we looked outside the forest where the shadows were gathering. Rio stuck her tongue out towards them. “Geez.” she said and frowned.

“Still… we’re… saved…” Emil said, panting.

“What do we do now?” Michele asked, catching his breath. “We can’t go outside to look for the great sage.” he said.

“L – L … let me catch my breath first – “ the Sage said.

Chris immediately healed him. We forgot that the Sage had collapsed yesterday.

“Thanks.” Phillix told Chris when his breathing finally stabilized. “For now… can we just rest?” he asked.

We all grimaced and looked outside.

“That’s the best plan for now.” I said.

Phillix sighed. “Anyways, we all don’t expect them.” he said and pointed to the shadows outside the forest. “Nor that.” he added and pointed upwards.
