Chapter 15 Finally Reincarnated! 2 (1/2)

After being proud of her achievement, Inna decided to walk around the forest.

After minutes of walking aimlessly, she saw a lake at a far distance. She walked towards it and decided to wash off the blood from the beasts. She checked her body to see if she has any water containers but it seems that she only carried weapons on her.

Desperate and thirsty, she scooped the water with her hands and drank it. After a few mouthfuls, she noticed her reflection from the water illuminated by the moonlight.

She really did get reincarnated.

Her face was definitely different. Although the face she had was quite pretty and tanned, like a model with bronzer and highlight, it still couldn't compare to her previous face. Her face now kind of looked like a younger Lara Croft, with her dirt filled face and her brown hair tied in a ponytail. Her eyes were still green but it had bags beneath it, like the owner never had a proper day's rest.

She leaned down to wash the dirt and blood on her face. Just as she was about to finish, she stopped because she heard a noise across her.

”Neat! A lake! We should build camp here, Rod!” Inna heard a giddy youthful voice along with a rustling of leaves.

”Ugh, I can finally have a bath.” A sharp womanly voice followed next. ”And I'm saying this ahead of time, but you guys better not peek! Especially you, George!”

”Hey, we still need to discuss our plan, Ren...quest... para... difficult... the role... do it?” The third voice lowered his voice halfway, making Inna miss what he said. The woman, 'Ren', spoke in a lowered voice as well as she replied .

So to hear better, Inna drew closer, her feet submerged in the water. She squinted her eyes to see them but she still can't make out what they look like with just the moonlight as the only source of illumination.

She silently went deeper into the waters, her waist now fully submerged and halfway through the lake. But before she can look at them one more time, her foot landed on a slippery rock and slipped.

Splash!

”Who's there?!”

She heard multiple swords being unsheathed and an arrow buzzed past her, missing her cheek by a close margin.

”Wait, wait, wait!” She steadied herself as she exclaimed. She placed her arms in the air and spoke slowly, ”I'm lost.”

”Yea, well, hello Lost. Mind telling us what you were doing creeping up on us?” The woman, Ren, said seriously as she pointed her arrow at Inna.

”Uhm...” Inna was wracking her brains for an excuse. She can't think of anything so she decided to just blurt out something. ”I was bathing.”

”Bathing? Do you bathe with full armor?” The youth looked at her strangely and muttered, ”Weirdo.”
