qJust when Francesca wanted to climb back up the tree, she suddenly heard a sound from afar.

Holding her breath, she pricked her ears to listen to the footsteps in the distance.

As the main troop was getting close, she could tell from the sound they made that there were a lot of them.

Hence, Danrique jumped down from the tree and ran in a different direction with Francesca in tow.

Meanwhile, Danrique ran so fast that he looked like a cheetah darting through the forest.

Even though Francesca was inherently agile, she felt she was a weakling when compared to him.

Soon, she just couldn't run anymore. Flinging his hand aside, she bent down and panted heavily to catch her breath.

“We have to go!” Danrique urged with a frown.

“I can't run anymore. I just can't,” Francesca replied breathlessly.

“You're such a pain.”

When Danrique saw the approaching troops, he carried Francesca on his shoulders and continued running.
