After almost an entire day, Mira and Maria made their way back to their cave, and surprisingly, Maria was only slightly bloody with a few scratches and gashes but nothing too bad.
However, Maria looked dead tired like she used every ounce of energy contained within her body. Yet, none of these things could contain the large smile plastered on her face.
Celaine noticed this and her respect towards Maria started to drop as she thought that Mira might've knocked a few screws loose with how often she gets beaten up. Anyone who can come back smiling after getting beat must be a little insane.
Nevertheless, she pushed these thoughts away and decided to greet them.
"Did something good happen, Maria? It looks like you just got beat up like usual." Celaine commented.
