Nolun's medicine worked exceptionally well. Before long, Phini woke up.
She opened her eyes groggily, her gaze filled with confusion.
Especially when she saw the pink-haired girl standing before her, her mind seemed to crash.
Who was this adorable child? Did they know each other?
These questions filled Phini's mind. Nolun made almost no effort to hide the disdain on her face. "Though I expected it beforehand, you're even more disappointing than I thought, my foolish sister..."
Phini blinked. She did not seem bothered by the hostility in the other girl's words and pointed at herself in confusion. "Sister?"
"Miss Phini, this is Lady Nolun Ossivius, a descendant of your mother's younger sister. She is also your younger sister."
After Shefiliya's explanation, Phini finally showed a look of understanding and remembered what had just happened.
"Did you save us? Thank you!"
She stepped forward, grabbed Nolun's hand, and gave it a shake.
Nolun visibly froze before shaking off her hand. She crossed her arms and turned her head away. "Hmph... I only did it for Aunt Bexila's sake. You couldn't even handle something this minor. Honestly..."
Phini did not argue back or say anything. She simply stood there quietly, blinking with a slightly wronged expression on her face.
For some reason, Nolun could not continue speaking.
"Forget it."
She turned around, then looked toward Shefiliya. "So what exactly happened in this forest? Why are there so many undead creatures... And where did that man go? Where did he run off to?"
There was obvious, intense dissatisfaction in her voice.
Her sister and the others were in danger. Where the hell had that Lin Mo gone at a time like this? He really was completely unreliable!
"This should have been a trap prepared in advance by the necromancer..."
Shefiliya answered neither
