Mious's embrace was very steady, but when he stopped suddenly, Wen Shu still felt a bit dizzy and lightheaded.
There was a low bird and beast call overhead. She rubbed her temples just as she heard Nan's worried reproach, "Mious, the female is still not well. How could you..."
Feeling uncomfortable, she lifted the beast skin, and Nan's voice abruptly cut off.
A pale-faced male rushed forward in just a few steps, cupped her face, and spoke in a gentle voice tinged with a hint of hoarseness and a sobbing tone, "Ashu, let me see you."
Looking into his misty eyes, a warmth surged through Wen Shu's heart, but this was not the time for sentiment.
She raised a faint smile and wrapped her hand around his warm backhand, speaking lightly, "Nan, I'm okay. Let's enter Beast City first."
After saying this, she left Mious's embrace and walked towards the Beastmen's ranks.
"Boom—"
A massive sound of iron grinding against rock came from overhead, shaking the ground.
