Villain Ch 1369. Near-death Experience
The Cursed Mythic Forest, a nightmare in broad daylight. Towering trees loomed overhead, their gnarled branches twisting unnaturally. The air was thick with the scent of damp earth and decay.
Gil adjusted his hood, scanning the area. "This place gives me the creeps. I swear these damn trees are whispering shit."
"That's just your paranoia," Elio muttered, tightening his grip on his sword. "Or maybe it's your sins catching up to you, Gil."
"Real funny," Gil scoffed. His daggers gleamed under the dappled light filtering through the canopy. "Remind me why we're even here?"
"We need more high-tier materials to upgrade our gear, and the Mythic Forest is the best place to get them," the priest replied, adjusting his robes. He was already prepping a few buffs in advance.
