As they said, never talk to strangers. What more to receive something that they would give...
"Drink it….drink it, princess."
Asteria's eyes widened, finding it instantly strange how he knows her existence.
Just then, the man transformed into an ugly formation, and the men around yelled, "Goblin!"
Everyone was in panic and Ares pushed her back, "It's a goblin. Go, I'll fight it."
"What? No! I won't let you fight alone. I'll grab the head while you slice the heart." Asteria planned and ran to the beast bravely.
"No, you need to come with me, princess."
The goblin howled and instead of being killed, the goblin released a strange green smoke, making her faint he grabbed her waist and put her up as it ran.
All she could see at last was the confused look on Ares's face and him chasing her before her heavy eyelids drooped.
