Chapter 72

Pov: Ash

Location: Forest Empire

Gina led us out of the forest in less than thirty minutes, she knows her way around very well. I was holding her hand and Bash was walking beside us to my left.

Gina was cautious of him, the mayhem he showed her is still lingering in her memories. The green blood that splattered onto her has not dried up, letting her sleep soak in fluids in the middle of a forest was not a good idea.

"Look over there it's the Orphanage," Gina boomed, her hands tugging at my black dress.

I lowered my head, and my witch's hat narrowly avoided a tree branch. "The tall building over there." I pointed in the same direction as Gina.

"What's a building doing on the outskirts of a village," Bash chimed in. His eyes looked down the hill to a structure made of stones and wood, the architecture perfectly merging with the natural environment.

In five minutes, we descended the hill, the orphanage resting only a few meters from us.
