Eventually, the group settled on spending one more day and night at the Black Church before starting to move towards the Werebeast Village.
Levia and Amon were seated on a church bench in the main hall, while Rita, Akane, and Syl were outside.
"What?" Levia sighed. "Are you still shook up because you got hugged?"
"Hm? Oh, well, I guess I didn't expect it."
"I didn't know a hug was the way to your heart."
"Now you know." Amon smirked.
Obviously, it wasn't really about the hug.
Akane had been taken from her village, held prisoner, put in a cage, and given to Goblins.
Yet despite all of that, she was still willing to part with the group, willing to go back to being alone, for the sake of helping those in her village.
