Chapter 243: Alithe’s ability
The evening was settling over Yogisho Village, the golden hue of the setting sun casting long shadows across the landscape of the village.
The sky was a blaze of a few colors, the sun sinking below the horizon in a burst of red and orange.
The trees were swaying gently in the warm evening breeze, the leaves rustling softly as they were nudged by the wind, the air was tinged with the scent of burning wood and cooking food, the smells wafting lazily in the air above the houses of the village.
The streets of the village were almost deserted, the villagers having retreated into their homes to prepare dinner and await the night.
The sound of their voices echoed down the street, from a few households with open windows, a soft hum of hushed yet cheerful conversation mingling with the occasional laughter.
Like what the guards were told earlier in the afternoon, everyone was gathered outside the village gates.
Coco stood beside Alithe, a polite smile on her face as she observed the men surrounding them, her posture straight and composed.
Her dark hair framed her face, a few tendrils pulled back into a ponytail, as he stood with a casual grace, her body relaxed and her hands casually resting by her sides.
She was surrounded by the guards from the main city, the men a ring of black and steel around her and Alithe.
