"Something's coming..."
Reika's P.O.V.
We had finally arrived at the 'Forest of nightmares'. We had not expected, no mishaps happening at all, but that had allowed us to cut the time of travel by more than half...
We were now 10 feet away from the entrance of the forest...
But as we were about to leisurely enter the gloomy and foggy darkness of the forest...
Scarlet signaled us to stop abruptly...
Both Myria and I remained confused by her actions... Until Scarlet finally broke the silence making us fear slightly...
"Wait... Someone is in there〜..."
Both, Myria and I froze in place... If there was someone in there... we might go through some trouble... And after all we have endured... none of us were in any mood fight... But as we continued to think, Scarlet revealed more information to us...
"...There are about 5... no, 10 people in there〜... And according to what I am sensing... they seem no pushover〜..."
Hearing Scarlet's words, I just nodded in comprehension as I asked:
"Scarlet, can we avoid them?"
"Yes, it seems so. They are gathered on the main path so if we cut through the thick woods we should be fine... However〜, since the thicker woods actually have miasma in them〜... I propose we all run at our top speeds to cross it without the miasma affecting any of us too badly〜"
Hearing, Scarlet's proposal, I sunk in deep thought as I began thinking of the possibilities...
"Myria, what do you think, can you run too?"
"Yeah, I think I've recovered enough for that"
Immediately after hearing her response I turned to Scarlet once more, who was looking at me a little anxiously, as I nodded in approval:
"Ok Scarlet, let's go with that... Guide us through"
"It's my pleasure, Reika-Cha〜n"
I became a little embarrassed by Scarlet's sudden honorific choice, making me blush almost instantly... Both Myria and Scarlet smirked seeing me blush, but luckily neither pushed the teasing any further.
"Ok the〜n Are we ready〜?"
As both, Myria and I became ready to begin running, we both nodded...
