"No… I shouldn't have stopped and rested last night. I should've just swung through the thunderstorm so I could return and protect all of them…." Yang Zhang blamed himself for what happened here.
"Squeak!"
"Vii!"
Yang Zhang raised his head upon hearing Chestnut and Little Ivy's voices. He saw them waving their hands at Yang Zhang from the ruin of his hut.
Yang Zhang bit his lip. He had to be strong, enduring the pain in case his beloved pets died because of the attack.
Yang Zhang got up and walked toward them, "What did you guys find?"
"Vii!" Little Ivy pointed at a hut made out of vine at the edge of the back garden.
The backyard was still fully intact, and the flowers were ravishing just like usual.
This gave hope to Yang Zhang. He knew that the flowers in the gardens were alive thanks to Roselia's power. Because all the roses were unnaturally grown by Roselia's power and had many living traps. Thus, Yang Zhang guessed that Roselia was still alive somewhere.
