Getting caught up in the net

 "Yes, I understand all of this very well. Now we need to get down a little and move forward. Am I right Xenia?"

 Hahaha.

Xenia laughed.

 "Hmm, you're right. We'll have to push forward with difficulty to avoid these deadly arrows. So follow me now without delay."

 With that, Xenia stepped up to move forward.

 Ryan also followed behind him.

 Thus they reached a great distance with great difficulty.  There was no danger on the way. So they easily travelled far without fear.

 After a long journey, they got into trouble.  Before the end of the road, there was a new turn. Two tunnels were seen.  Now they were worried about which way to go. And why are there two ways to come this far?

 "Xenia, we are in danger again. There are two roads here. Which road should we take to the front road? Is there any danger if we go on the wrong road?"

 "Umm, let me think."

 That's why Xenia began to take a good look at the two tunnels from their point of origin.  Also check carefully if there are any signs on the wall at the beginning of the path. But like inside the hole, no new signs were found here.

 Xenia fell into thought.  She looked at the tunnel and thought quietly.

 Suddenly her face brightened.

 "Hahaha, I got the way."

 Ryan's face also brightened.

 "What way?"

 "Did you notice something?"

 "No. What are you talking about?"

 "This is that the road leading to the left side is a bit brighter and the right side is very dark. It means that the outside light has come in through this left side road. That makes this road seem illuminated. It means that we are going forward through this left side.  We have to move forward. Only then can we get out of this way."

 "Hmm, but Xenia, you said that this path will not go outside our palace. But now I see that this path has gone outside. So what's the point of us coming through this path?"

 "I don't know what's the point. But we have to go to the end of this path. Because we need to know the secret of a secret cave in a place like this."

 Ryan never goes against Xenia's word.  Because he knows Xenia is an intelligent girl.  So he quietly listened to him attentively.

 Without further delay, Xenia stepped forward to take the path to their left.

 Ryan also followed behind Xenia.

 "Xenia, did you notice something?"

 "What matters?"

 "There is quite a difference between the road we left behind and the road ahead. The road ahead seems to get steeper and narrower the farther we go from the former road."

 Xenia listened to Ryan and took a good look at the road.

 "Yes, you are right. That means we are on the right path. Coming this way will soon end our secret path."

 They continued on again.

 After some distance, Xenia realized that their road would end after a little more.  Because a lot of light entered the cave from outside. As a result, the secret path is clearly visible.

 Finally they reached their destination at the end of the secret passage of this cave.

 There is a hole right above their head.  The hole is not far. As a result, it can be easily climbed from inside.

 "Ryan, you stand here. I'll go ahead and check the outside position. You wait here for me."

 Ryan nodded in agreement.

 Xenia climbed out of the cave through that hole.

 There are many small hills around where the cave path starts.

 Xenia looked at the mountains.  But nothing suspicious caught her eye.  There was no fear of danger in this direction.

 Xenia wanted to go a little further and try to see the situation there.  But in hindsight she felt that there should be no danger in such a place.

 So she went back to the cave to bring Ryan up.

 "Xenia, what do you see? Is there any danger above?"

 "No, there's no danger up there. We can go up there. There's only hills and hills. No other mystery or anything dangerous in sight."

 "Then we can go up. But Xenia, I doubt it. Are we going in the right direction? We came to protect my parents and my palace from the Demon Lord."

 "Don't worry."

  So Xenia went up through the hole again from there.  Ryan also followed behind him.

 Xenia's description of Ryan here is correct.  There are only hills and hills.

 "Xenia here are mountains and hills. What are we going to do here? There is nothing that will benefit us. We just came here."

 Xenia continued walking forward without saying anything.

 Ryan also went.

 Hills and mountains on both sides of the road.

 After a while, a net suddenly fell on them.  They both fell to the ground.

 Huhaha.

 "We have captured you. We will not release you. We will kill you, as you killed our companions."

 As he spoke, many people jumped out from behind the hills, from the bushes and from the small hills and came towards them.

 Xenia's mind was filled with regret.  If she had not come this way, she would not have faced such great danger.

 What else to do?  When she came and was imprisoned, then she must be freed from this captivity.

 Xenia wanted to do magic to break free from their grip.  But her hands and feet are so entangled with the net that she can no longer move her hands and do magic.
