New Power

"Do you believe you can save him?" When Jaena noticed the creature wasn't acting threateningly, she inquired.

She wasn't certain as to why she had initially said this. She just wanted to save her brother since the creature seemed trustworthy and strong.

Maya nodded and placed Jaebin down on the ground, carefully. She then grabbed a hair strand and wrapped Jaebin's neck in a knot.

Her entire body started to radiate brightly at that point, and the hair on his neck also started to shine.

Jaebin's glow expanded from the base of his neck to the rest of his body, making him shine like Maya, before gradually returning to normal. Anyone who saw this gasped and was instantly stunned.

All the buddies stepped out from behind the tree instead of remaining hidden and gathered around Jaena.

"What does she do exactly," wondered Daehyun with wide-open eyes.

Due to her being so astonished, Jeana responded, "I don't know," and completely forgot to blink and breathe.

"What really happened?" Jaena stepped closer to view her brother and said, "Is my brother all right?" to Maya.

Everyone that followed Jaena could see that Jaebin had recovered from his wounds and was no longer in pain; instead, he was merely covered in blood.

But again, Maya hastily snatched him back into her arms, subconsciously. When she realized what she had done, she was shocked.

"Why am I holding him right now?" "My job is already over; maybe I should go now," Maya thought, shocked by her own sudden act.

Jaebin finally opened his eyes properly for the first time since Maya had been here.

As she was taking a look at his beautiful features, she could see his deep hazel-brown eyes were trying to open them up.

She panicked, abruptly dropped him, and stood up when she noticed he was now looking at her calmly.

Because it was only a short distance and he was already healthy, there was no great concern for her about dropping him like that on the ground.

He was joyfully yelled at by his sister and friends, "Jaebin!" "Brother!" and "Bro!" before everyone rushed to him and made him sit.

He was just covered in blood and had no further injuries; he could even stand up. Everything was now perfect and normal.

They all examined his scars and his cracked-open skull to see if there were any remaining wounds on his body.

Maya was standing there awkwardly and about to leave when they all moved their attention toward her again.

She was frustrated that she couldn't even steal anything from them since they were all there. Even worse, she spotted her favorite snack nearby, which the wolf had flung out of the bag during the attack.

She finally found these snacks after so many months of fewer hikers visiting this forest, however, it appeared that this time she would have to miss her snacks.

Maya was about to go when Minho shouted at her, "White Witch! Are you the White Witch?"

She was perplexed after hearing him speak since she hadn't realized until just now that she could comprehend what he had just said.

She had never encountered this language in her life as a human, but still, she seemed to comprehend every word.

"She pondered, "How is this possible? ", before mocking herself and saying, "Maya, just believe it! Do your appearance, your ability, and all of that make sense?" " Is everything this possible?"

She was always surprised when she discovered her powers, and this thing was just on her list of "Abnormalities of Myself."

She ran into a lot of people here, but she was never able to hear them well because they were usually yelling when they spotted her.

"Does she has the capacity to comprehend our language? Because she seems confused." Seola asked while observing Maya.

"Maybe they are interested in me?" Maya pondered as she moved her face in their direction, worried that they may hurt her, but she still had many questions, and it warmed her heart to observe that they were no longer afraid of her.

She made a nod in negative to Minho's question. She believed herself to not be the "White Witch."

"Oh...! Are you…, certain?" Minho enquired suspiciously. Daehyun smacked his forehead out of concern that she would find his query annoying.

As a result, there was still some residual fear between the two sides.

Seola was now aware and sure that the creature was not malicious, thus she was not in the least bit frightened instead this creature tremendously aided and saved her friend.

She observed that Maya still had the arrow in her left shoulder. Seola expressed her guilt for harming the poor creature and felt awful feelings.

She wanted to apologize for hurting Maya with her arrow and wanted to take it out immediately, she even made an attempt to do so, but Maya retreated in defense.

Minho understood why Seola was approaching the creature and irritably remarked, "She never ever said sorry to me," feeling the tension at the moment.

Jaena nervously whispered in his ear, "Would you please stop talking?" Seola said kindly, "Can I take this out? It must be hurting you.”

Since Maya had not felt these feelings of hearing kind words in such a long time and was all by herself, without anyone to talk to or comfort her, she became overwhelmed by her emotions, but not showed.

She claimed to be in excellent condition as she made a gesture and removed the arrow on her own; it hurt a lot, but she had not shown any signs of suffering.

Afterward, her hair quickly coiled around her injured shoulder and began to heal it. Despite having just seen this power moments earlier, everyone gasped again when they saw it.

After this Maya wanted to leave, but something stopped her since she had grown fond of this group of people.

Jaena reacted happily since her brother was now fine and said, "Please sit here with us," as she was now feeling positive and assured, gestured for Maya to sit next to her on the rock.

The creature they were looking for was discovered. They were in no situation to leave at this moment.

At first, they believed Maya didn't understand them, but as she nodded in agreement and sat down on a nearby rock, everyone gathered around her and sat down.

While some people were frightened to see her up close, others were delighted.

Jaebin remained still and simply gazed at her mysteriously. Maya made eye contact with him when she realized that only he had not come this near to her; when he saw her eye contact, he glanced away, awkwardly.

"Then, you're not the White Witch," Daehyun questioned apprehensively.

Maya shifted her glance to him in response to his question. She had the first time seen him properly since they were all here.

All of a sudden, she stood up and examined something.

She acted suddenly, so everyone was startled because they thought he had provoked her and she was about to attack them.

But to their surprise, she turned her back and began to leave. They were all stunned by it.

"Why did she leave? As she was observing Daehyun, why did she get up?" everyone thought but didn't dare to stop her.

Seeing her walk away like that someone felt sadness in his heart in silence but didn't show it.
