Gray took Anna and me to a room nearby in Vikram's base. There were no female people with us so I personally changed Anna's clothes. After a while, the night fell and we woke up the next morning. No one came into our room except for dinner.

“My lady! May I come in?” It was Gray. “Yes. You can.” I replied. Then he came in. Unlike before he was in normal clothing. “My lady! Are you well rested now?”

“Yes. Thanks for your help Sir Gray.” “It's not much, my lady but I need you to answer me a few questions so I can send a report to Duke Helstein.” Even though Gray sent it, he didn't look enthusiastic about it. “Sure you can.” I replied.

“My lady! Can you explain how you got here in the Woods first?”

“The wheel got off and then Ace ran away. I chased after him and also got lost. Then these guys captured me and locked me in some dark rooms. That's where I found this girl. She was awake at the moment and she used her blessings to make way for us to escape.This slumber was her blessing's results.She told me to take her to her hometown. Please let me take her with me.”

“My lady!” He thinks for a while before answering “Alright my lady. We will be leaving for The Marquis estate today. A three man squad will follow you till your journey ends. We will be staying in the town of IB-anna for a while. An unorthodox event occurred there but not much damage was done. We will recharge there and then move.”

Nothing much happened after all that and we went our own way on our own.

~Evening, Duke Helstein’s Office .

“So Richard ran off didn't he?” The duke said.

“Yes my lord.” Gray replied. “Even my men who were following the carriage were stopped by Vikram's Thugs. I'm ashamed that they weren't even able to finish off those thugs.” He added.

“Hmmm…. Lady Aaria was in good health? How can that be? She was in Forest for three nights and two days and she was right. No injuries, bruises or anything.” The duke is also shocked by such appearance.

“Maybe it's the Girl Anna blessings?” Gray suggested. “Yeah it could be” the duke also agreed.

“But I hope it's that. Cause we know that The forest of the lost stories are not just stories.” Gray said. “Hmm… For now keep this incident a secret from Hunter. Make sure it doesn't reach his ears.” The duke ordered.

“Yes my lord.”

He leaves the room.

But out of nowhere Sky appears in the room.

“Do you want to personally investigate this incident?" the Duke asked Sky.

“No. I will find out after four months. Make sure I have a free schedule for the capital City.” Sky left after saying her piece.

Aaria's pov.

We were entering the Town of IB-anna when suddenly the same old man crashes into our carriage and at the same moment Anna woke up and The first thing

she said was

“Father!”.
