A few days after the Queen's birthday feast, the envoys of various countries began to depart for their homeland. The whole palace slowly fell silent.

Windona was worried at first that Sanar would come to her again for her life events.

But to her surprise, the courtyard was quiet these days, and nothing happened.

It's just that this kind of ease is only temporary, and what should come is always coming back, such as ......

"Princess Doer, I'm here, are you ready for me to play?"

"Hoo ......"

Just after a while, the demon king came running again. Windona put down the book in her hand and walked out the door. Sure enough, Liz was lying on the stone table happily eating pastries.

"Why did the county lord come early in the morning?"

"Hmm...... Hmmm......"

"Eat slowly," Windona said as he received a glass of water, "don't choke." ”

"No, no," Liz looked at her with an excited look as she drank it all, "this pastry is delicious, where did you get it?" ”

"This is a friend from Kyoto, the county is the main one who likes to eat, so take it, I have some here."

"Uh-huh, this stuff is delicious!" Liz ate a plate of lotus cake without any image.

After eating and drinking, she wiped her mouth contentedly, "What's fun today?" I'm tired of staying in the palace every day! ”

"What does the county lord want to play?" Wen Dona sat next to her helplessly with her chin propped up, looking at his posture, don't think about spending a quiet day today.

"Hmm...... I want to think about ......"

Liz's big eyes were spinning, and in a moment, her eyes glowed with a strange light.

"Let's go to the back mountain to play, my father used to take me there to hunt!"

"Back Mountain?"

Windona knew the place, but there was usually no one there. It's been deserted for a long time.

"County Lord, let's play something else, there are almost no people there, what if there is danger."

"Joke, what's the danger to you, let's go, let's go."

Liz said and pulled her outside.

"The county lord...... Wait a minute......"

The back mountain is the most remote place in the northeast corner of the whole palace, which used to be used by the princes to train riding and archery, but gradually it was abandoned, so now this place is extremely desolate, and the whole mountain forest is densely vegetated, and it is easy to lose your way if you are not familiar with this place.

Liz had come all the way here, and for her, this was just the territory she was about to conquer, after all, she had been fighting on the battlefield since she was a child, and this forest was nothing to her.

But it was different for the princess, who had never been out of the boudoir since she was a child, looking at the dark woods, and from time to time shouting a few fierce crows flying out, Windona clutched her hand tightly, and this scene reminded her of the monster she had met that night.

"Leeds...... Let's go back...... It's eerie here......"

"I said, why are you so daring!"

Liz looked disdainful, "The place I entered is much, much more terrifying than this!" ”

Although she looked down on the squeamishness of the princess Wen Dona, she still held her hand tightly, "Follow me, I can't save you if a wild wolf and boar run out!" ”

"Uh-huh......"

Windona nodded vigorously.

The two of them walked slowly forward, and Liz enjoyed this sense of conquest of the unknown, and the more unfathomable it was, the more it piqued her curiosity. But the deeper she went, the deeper her brow wrinkled, something was wrong, something was wrong with this forest.

"I said, does anyone usually come to this forest?"

"I didn't ...... Who would come so eerie...... Let's not go inside, let's go back now...... Good no good? ”

Windona was almost stupefied because he felt that the further he went inside, the darker it became, and even the wind was not quite right, and he always had a feeling of wanting to vomit.

"Shh......h

Liz motioned to her to keep quiet, she seemed to hear something.

"Ahh uh..."

A roar of pain faintly came from the depths of the dense forest, and Windona couldn't help but shudder.

"Isn't it...... There is a sound......"

"No, you heard me wrong."

Liz walked forward calmly, something was wrong, it was too strange here, along the way she could faintly see fragments of broken armor in the grass, and the terrible scream just now, there must be something wrong here, and more importantly, the further you went inside, the stronger the smell of blood became!

"Leeds...... It stinks so much here! Windona covered her nose in disgust,

"Of course, the impermeable forest doesn't stink! It must have been the carcass of the beast that emanated. Liz said jokingly.

All the strange things that happened here made Liz inexplicably start to get excited, everything here was full of strong attraction to her, and she must go to explore the secrets here.

I don't know how long I walked inside, but the fog began to fill the entire forest, and Windona was a little difficult to discern the direction.

"Liz, are we going to move forward, I can't see anything clearly."

"Don't worry, I've marked all the way, and we'll be able to find it back after a while."

Liz pulled her to sit on the big rock next to her.

"Don't you feel very excited, such a large forest is about to be conquered by you! This sense of belonging is very satisfying for me! ”

"I.... I don't understand any sense of belonging, I just feel more and more eerie. Windona looked around, "It's dark around ...... everything."

"Be careful!" Leeds heard something unusual about the wind, and she jerked her head up just in time to see a long arrow about to shoot from a nearby branch.

"There's a hidden weapon!"

Liz pushed Windona aside at once, and she took a solid shot herself.

"Leeds! ....”

All this happened so fast that Windona didn't have time to react.

When she got up from the ground, she found that Liz was injured, and a long arrow had been pierced into her calf, and Liz was pinching her calf tightly with her hand, but the wound had begun to leak blood.

"You're hurt! What to do.... Leeds, are you okay! Windona was horrified, "Help! Is there anyone there! ”

"Stop shouting. What can I do if I summon the beast? It's not a small injury......."

Liz tore off a corner of her skirt and tied her calves with strips of cloth, "Help me pull out the arrow, hurry!" ”

"Are you crazy!" Windona dragged her legs, "You're going to die!" ”

"Don't talk nonsense," Liz glared at her impatiently, "do you want me to die of infection!" Hurry up! ”

"I..."

Wen Dona can't help it, this arrow is indeed rusty, and if the rust is really infected, it will be troublesome, "Then bear with it, I'll be gentle..."

"Hmmm! …”

Liz's forehead was already covered with fine beads of sweat, her eyes closed, and her hands were clenched into fists.

"I... I'm going to pull it out..."

Windona's trembling hands gradually approached the long arrow, it was the first time she had done such a dangerous thing, she needed to keep herself calm!

"Stop!"
