164: The girl of the forest - part 2

"Let's go inside now. The forest is dangerous once the sun goes down. Sister once told me that there are various kinds of beasts in the forest that only come out at night. I don't want to become food for them" for someone saying those words, Yura did not look scared.

If anything, Maria would have categorized the expression on her face as eager and opportunistic. She had a feeling that the girl was actually excited to see those beasts that lived in the forest. How peculiar of her and also weird.

"Let's go in then" Maria agreed. She wanted to stop back and observe the child a little bit more. There was something disturbing about this place and it may have been because of the lost node. Generally, losing a node had a big impact but the world seemed to be holding up.

The child gave Maria a confused look when she looked back. Yura had not moved from her position for even a second and it made Maria stop and turn back to the child. She had to ask the question.
