At that moment, Caleb approached with a smile. “Ms. Garcia, you’re awake. Your timing is perfect. Let’s
all have breakfast together.”
After he finished speaking, he didn’t wait for her reaction. He immediately waved at Shane and the
others, beckoning them to come over.
And so, the two families sat together.
On Neera’s left was Shane, while Darcel was on her right.
For some reason, she felt somewhat awkward.
However, Darcel seemed unbothered. He even served her a bowl of soup.
Neera took it with a word of thanks, sipping slowly, but she didn’t have much of an appetite.
Looking at the variety of food in front of her, she couldn’t help but tease, “Mr. Medicina, you’ve prepared
quite a lot. It seems like you’re here for a vacation.”
Caleb smiled faintly. “Indeed, no matter where we are, we should never shortchange ourselves.”
Neera found it somewhat amusing. After spending the past two days together, she realized that Caleb
was quite different from the impression she had of him at their first meeting.
When they first met at the pharmacy, he gave off an impression of dominance, nobility, and gentle
sophistication.
In contrast to then, no matter how she looked at him now, she couldn’t help but see him as a goofball.
Hmm, he quite an interesting guy.
After breakfast, the group took a short break before continuing on their journey.
After Neera had walked a distance, she didn’t look well.
Shane was worried about her, “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Your complexion is a little pale.”
Wiping the cold sweat from her forehead, Neera said, “It’s nothing serious. It’s just the wound I suffered
from the recent attack. It split open a little last night, causing some pain.”
Shane furrowed his brows. “Why don’t we take a break so that you catch your breath?”
Neera declined, “No need. It’s okay. Let’s not hold everyone back. I’ll just bear with it for a while, and it
will pass.”
Moreover, the Médicina family was also traveling with them. If she were to stop, Caleb would surely
take care of her and stop as well. She didn’t want to cause trouble for others.
Shane sighed. “You’ve had it tough too. You should have been resting at home, but instead, you were
dragged into this struggle. Running around all day yesterday might have worsened your wound. Since
you don’t want to stop, why don’t we slow down a little? It won’t make much of a difference.”
Neera chuckled lightly, insisting, “It’s okay, let’s keep up this pace. I can handle it. Don’t worry.”
With that, Shane didn’t say anything more.

Rather than focusing on the pain in his shoulder, Neera chose to distract herself by shifting her gaze
elsewhere. She looked around, taking in the scenery.
At that moment, she realized that someone was missing from the Medicina family’s group.
Luna, who had carried her through the marsh before, was nowhere to be found.
After a moment of hesitation, she walked over and asked with concern, “Where is Luna? Why is she
not here? Did something happen?”
Caleb pointed ahead. “She’s fine. I sent her ahead to scout the path in front.”
Upon hearing this, Neera felt reassured and put her worries aside.
Shane also believed it to be true, and even took the initiative to suggest, “Next time, if there’s a need
for scouting, you can call on us to join. It’s better than acting alone.”
Caleb smiled faintly, politely saying, “Of course, of course.”
After a while, the dull pain in Neera’s shoulder became unbearable. She simply couldn’t go on any
longer, so he finally stopped to rest.
Seeing her discomfort, the Medicina family indeed stopped and stayed with her.
Neera felt a little embarrassed. “Mr. Medicina, don’t worry about me. You guys should go ahead. I don’t
want to hold you back.”
Caleb casually plucked a leaf from a tree, held it to his lips, and blew gently. With a relaxed air, he said,
“No worries. We’re tired from walking anyway. Let’s take a break together.”
Given what he said, Neera naturally insisted.
Thereafter, her wounds began to act up more frequently, forcing her to stop and rest two more times.
Caleb’s men stayed together with her throughout, moving and resting as one group.
In fact, their demeanor was so relaxed that Neera even wondered if they were there on vacation.
At that moment, Caleb said, “Actually, there’s no need to rush up the mountain. Hurrying might not
necessarily be a good thing.”
Neera understood his point. “Did something happen up there?”
“Mm-hmm.” Caleb nodded. “It’s quite lively up there right now.”
Lively? Could it be that a fight has broken out?
Before long, they continued on their journey, confirming her speculation.
Sure enough, two groups of people were engaged in an intense battle.
Every attack unleashed would cause blood to splatter all around. Clean blades would be drenched in
blood every time they were thrust forward.
Neera was visibly in discomfort. The stench of blood was so strong that it made her feel slightly
nauseous.
At that moment, Darcel suddenly appeared, blocking her path.
“If it’s making you uncomfortable, you should stop watching.”
While speaking, he handed her a bottle of water and gave her two pills.
“I heard your wound is hurting. Eating this can help soothe it. We’ll find a place at noon to set up a tent,
so you can clean the wound.”
Neera, whose attention was inadvertently diverted, thanked him softly.
After Darcel left, Finnley came over with a suspicious look, muttering under his breath, “Why does
everyone in this group treat you so well?”
Shane seemed to appear out of nowhere, responding, “It’s probably because Neera is quite attractive,
which naturally inspires others to be protective of her.”
