Eve accepted it with a smile and carefully placed it in the small pouch on her thigh.
Suddenly, Sylphy burst through the cabin door, rushing inside.
"You two! We have to leave, NOW!" Eve and Kaizoku were confused, seeing Sylphy in a panic and looking very serious.
Sylphy quickly grabbed Kaizoku and Eve's hands without answering their questions. "Void Walk!" Sylphy used the Void Walk spell for the second time.
They instantly disappeared from the cabin, and Sylphy ran quickly, leading them out of Witches' Woods at great speed.
Sylphy stopped at a cave near a snowy mountain, releasing Eve and Kaizoku. Kaizoku and Eve vomited after coming out of Sylphy's Void Walk.
Sylphy kept watch outside the cave, cautiously looking around.
Weakly, Kaizoku spoke. "Wh-What was that for..." then both Kaizoku and Eve collapsed and fell asleep.
Sylphy replied as she returned to the cave. "I caught the scent of someone from Ebonlight. I'm not sure who it was."
Eve quickly woke up from her sleep, though still weak, and tried to speak. "Ebonlight? Why would someone from Ebonlight be in Witches' Woods... Something's not right."
Sylphy sat down near them. "I don't know for sure, but that person had a very strong aura... It hurt my nose just to smell them. Whatever happens, don't let your guard down."

Elsewhere, a nun with a wide smile dressed entirely in white, holding a chainsaw in her right hand, approached Eve's cabin.
The nun, known as Reverend Taki, was infamous for her cruelty, willing to do anything for her god and superiors.
Taki gently knocked on the cabin door. "Reverend Taki from Ebonlight, is anyone there?"
Taki asked with a wide smile as she waited for a response.
Taki knocked again, waiting for a few minutes. "Please open the door, or I'll have to come in by force. Don't make me wait outside."
After a few more minutes, Taki lost patience. She revved her saw and immediately sliced the wooden door in half.
Taki looked around the cabin. "Where are you... I don't bite, you know." Taki said, looking at the cauldron filled with liquid.
After searching for a while, Taki gave up. She walked behind the cabin and noticed muddy footprints leading to the snowy mountains. "Running away, huh..." Taki muttered and began following the tracks.

"ARGHHH! This is getting worse! Give me some ideas, you guys! Don't just sit there!" Sylphy scolded Kaizoku and Eve, who were still dizzy from the Void Walk.
Eve and Kaizoku remained silent, staring blankly.
Eve tried to focus. "Wh-What if we disguise ourselves? I-I can use my magic to make us look different and get as far away as we can."
Sylphy felt a bit of relief seeing Eve still able to speak.
"That won't work for Kaizoku! We can't change his clothes!" Kaizoku slowly got up and patted Sylphy's arm.
"You two should go. Find another place or someone who can help us out of this danger," Kaizoku said weakly.
Sylphy was worried hearing this. "B-But!" she began, but Kaizoku interrupted her. "Just do it!"
After a moment of silence, Sylphy lowered her head. "Alright... Please, take care of yourself."
Eve cast a disguise spell on herself and Sylphy, changing their clothes.
Sylphy wore a farmer's hat to hide her wolf ears and tucked her tail inside her disguise.
Just like Sylphy, Eve's clothes and hat changed to become a farmer clothes.
