As Fiona gestured in a specific direction with his hand, Maria didn’t bother to glance at it. Instead, she swiftly adjusted the helicopter’s joystick, guiding it precisely towards the destination indicated by Fiona’s finger.

Meanwhile, Zeba, concealed within the gaps between boulders, remained unaware that she had become the target of their pursuit. Her sole objective was to stay as still as possible, refraining from making even the slightest sound. Once the individuals aboard the helicopter completed their inspection rounds, she believed she could depart from this place unnoticed. She possessed absolute certainty that she wouldn’t be discovered.

The helicopter circled the valley multiple times, yet its occupants never descended to search the area. The massive boulder obstructing Zeba’s view was thick enough to defy any attempt at detection, even with advanced equipment like thermal imaging. No one could see beyond it to discover her whereabouts.

However, unease began to creep into Zeba’s heart when the helicopter suddenly veered towards her. As it grew closer, her heart raced with anxiety.

Eventually, the helicopter arrived at the summit of the boulder, situated at the foot of the mountain.

Fiona suddenly announced, “This is it! I can already sense her presence. She is gravely injured!”

With those words, he swung open the helicopter door, preparing to jump straight down from the aircraft.

In a reflexive moment, Maria instinctively clutched the hem of his clothes and blurted out, “My Lord, since Zeba is in such a dire state, why don’t you wait for me to join you? I wish to meet her alongside you for a brief moment.”

Observing her plea, Fiona relented. Instead of jumping down, he decided they should land the helicopter in an area affected by the explosion. From there, they could proceed on foot together. Maria nodded in agreement, deftly manipulating the controls to spin the helicopter around on the spot.

Underneath the boulder, Zeba couldn’t help but exhale a long sigh of relief as she witnessed the helicopter turn around and depart, its presence no longer looming above her head. Little did she know, Maria had already positioned the helicopter at the edge of the blast zone.
