Recollection

The woman began to speak, her voice gentle and melodious, like the sound of heavenly music.

"They have arrived, should we intervene?" the figure asked, bowing to the woman.

"Has he found it?" Upon hearing this, the woman's expression changed slightly, her eyes sparkling with an unusual light, a hint of anticipation flashing deep within them.

"Yes," the figure nodded.

"No need to intervene; let's just wait for him here," the woman said slowly.

"Yes," the figure nodded again and then withdrew.

The woman then took out a jade pendant, her eyes flashing with madness.

"Today will be the day to capture you all," she murmured softly.

Meanwhile, Alex was frantically running, dragging Avril along.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong?" Avril, sensing something was amiss, couldn't help but ask.

"It's nothing," Alex replied calmly, his face set with determination. He knew he needed to heal and leave this place as soon as possible.
