A: Magic Forest

(19)

Lila immediately closed her mouth in disbelief. It happened suddenly and very quickly like the wind.

As Cia and Aliga turned to respond to Lila, a huge magic net was thrown from behind one of the goblin huts. The net was so large that the two witches could not escape and save themselves.

Unfortunately, the net can also ward off all magic power both from within and from outside. That group of magicians from Magus Village could do nothing.

Cia and Aliga try to rebel, but fail miserably. Their struggle will only add to their fatigue. Before long, a group of burly goblins came and carried their bodies towards the center of the village.

"Miss Peony, they got Cia and Aliga!" Lila went back inside the hut and approached Miss Peony in a hurry. This situation is very precarious for their side.

Miss Peony got up from her seat and wiped her tears. "Who?" her tananya softly while rubbing her eyes. "Who caught them?" continued again.

Instead of answering, Lila instead invited Miss Peony to immediately see what the situation was like outside. The blonde haired girl pulled Miss Peony's hand and led her towards the front door.

From behind the door leaf, they crouched down and peeked carefully. The two witches could see a herd of goblins hauling Aliga and Cia with hungry gazes. The drooling creature's saliva had even dripped from earlier.

Miss Peony swallowed her saliva roughly. From various literatures he had read, goblins loved human flesh. And now, he knew exactly which way this was going to happen.

"So, what are we going to do Miss Peony?" ask Lila worriedly. He noticed the quiet state of the streets after the procession began to drift away.

Miss Peony nibbled her temples riled. He did not expect that everything would become a mess like this. He was only paid five barrels of beer and red wine but it was still not worth the very dangerous experience.

"Peony will catch up with them. Lila just wait here. Too dangerous!" Miss Peony moved up and started to step out. His right hand was clenched and his left hand held the magic wand steadily.

Miss Peony turned around and smiled widely. He tucked his little one behind his ear, set his magician's hat, and said, "Ah, no. This is Peony's duty as your companion."

"I want to come!"

Miss Peony shook her head. "No, Peony will go alone! It's too dangerous there. You can eat them later, you know!"

Lila snorted and walked over to Miss Peony. He tiptoed and then pinned Miss Peony's head slowly. "And from that I want to come. It's also my job as Cia and Aliga's partner to save them ...."

"... So, let's go there together! As Miss said, being together is better than being alone."

Miss Peony was immediately moved to hear that. He jumped up and immediately gave Lila a dramatic hug. "Peony is happy to have a junior witch like you, huaa," he said later.

Lila let go of that hug after somewhat loosening up. He looked back at the quiet streets as before and immediately took the opportunity from him.

He immediately ran in the same direction as the goblin's motorcade while taking Miss Peony. "Come, Miss! We mustn't waste this opportunity!"

Miss Peony nodded then smiled faintly. He saw a young Peony in Lila's attitude. A very energetic girl. But the difference, the woman with wavy hair did not have one thing from Lila. A positive thought.

"Good, Peony's coming!"
