Chapter 174 - L'appel Du Vide

"How far are we going in?" Merlin asked

"As far as we need to," Thovan responded, "But the scouts reported that the undead were a small distance in the valley, so it shouldn't be that far"

Merlin nodded in response and the group continued travelling through the valley

After a little while, the group decided to take a break and regain their strength before the anticipated fight

Thovan decided to scout the surroundings first, while the rest of the group sat down and started recuperating

Everybody see, but Merlin's attention was particularly focused on the twins

Lyonette see to wipe off a vibrant purple stain froer brother's face The cause of the stain seerew in the area that Leonid had feasted upon, as evidenced by the stains on his fingers and clothes too

Ca his eyes, but Merlin could feel a very faint trace offrom his body It was likely some kind of area detection ability or alarently struht

While Bibar see to Hecate

Merlin approached Bibar, who stopped with his prayer as he noticed Merlin approach

"Hey, Bibar" Merlin said, announcing his presence to the man

"hello Merlin, can I help you?" Bibar responded

"I actually wanted to get your advice on so as it relates to your Goddess," Merlin said

Merlin seerabbed Bibar's attention, and after a nod of understanding, Merlin continued

Merlin explained the events that led up to hi to Hecate the first ti to the uidance, it felt like she was asking me for assistance But I don't knohat she means or what to do to help"

"Have you had any similar interactions with the Goddess lately?" Merlin asked

"No, I can't say that I have, unfortunately," Bibar responded, "I wish to do everything in est outside of purifying undead"

"I see Well, thank you for the help" Merlin thanked the

Thovan returned a few e fruits, some of which even Merlin was unfa out in about ten e bu into it like it was an apple

Others started picking froh to also reach into the pile He picked out a long fruit that looked almost exactly like a banana on the outside, outside of the reddish hue and blue spots on the skin

Peeling the fruit's skin back, he bit into the soft fruit and much to his surprise, it was exceptionally flavourful

But then the flavour really started kicking in only ht to himself as the heat rushed to his head

After their break, the group continued their travel through the valley, until they had finally run into the targets of their roup of zo around the valley It see around without any real intent of invading the village and just ended up this far into the valley by chance

This was further proved by the sight of several zo around the local wildlife, even when there was a suess their undead behaviour causes theroup of life So they're draards the valley that is flourishi+ng' Merlin thought to himself 'It's a surprise the entire Necropolis hasn't invaded, but I guess there are towns closer than this village that serve as juicer bait'
