They Hated Me in My First Life, But Now I Have the Love System

Chapter 103

Chapter 103: The Trader Chapter 103: The Trader Stepping forward, she continued, trying to ignore the unsettling silence.

She moved steadily for a while, but the monotony of the journey began to wear on her.

Without thinking, she began to hum a song softly to herself.

It was a comforting tune, something she remembered from her childhood.

She kept her voice low, just in case anyone could hear her.

Little Sweetie had told her there was no one else who knew about this tunnel.

But as Nnenna hummed, she couldn’t shake the feeling that she was being watched, whether by someone in the castle or something else entirely.

Still, she pushed the thought aside and pressed on, focusing on her mission.

Finally, Nnenna reached what seemed to be a dead end.

The tunnel stretched in front of her, and she couldn’t help but feel a twinge of confusion.

This didn’t match what Little Sweetie had described.

She had been told there would be a way out, but this didn’t make sense.

“Am I supposed to push something?” she wondered aloud, a bit frustrated.

She placed her hands on the wall in front of her, feeling around for any hidden mechanisms.

There had to be something.

She pressed harder, moving her fingers across the surface, when suddenly, the ground shifted.

With a loud groan, the earth gave way, row by row, as steps appeared beneath her feet, leading her upward.

Surprised but relieved, Nnenna climbed the steps, stepping carefully as the cool air filled her lungs.

As she reached the top, she gasped.

The scene before her took her breath away.

The field stretched out in all directions, so peaceful and still, despite its abandonment.

The grasses, though slightly overgrown, weren’t too high, and wildflowers dotted the landscape, giving the entire area a serene, untouched beauty.

For a moment, Nnenna stood there, taking it all in.
