Chapter 306: The Deep Woods Witch [III]

The witch remains on guard with Elaina while Elaina is also on guard but a bit loose, enough to make the witch understand her intentions. And to keep her guard down a lot more, Elaina decided to show the forage she collected on the way before she arrived in the deep woods. But the mont Elaina pulled out the bag and poured its contents onto the ground for the witch to see, the witch didn’t look at the contents of the bag that were landing on the grass, instead, her eyes remained fixated on the bag itself to the point she even calls it a magic tool.

It wasn’t exactly a sort of a new thing and even hermits who should be living in the mountains have gotten one or two during their explorations as this thing has been scattered all over the world and one can get lucky if they found one in dungeons, or if they ca across a dead person carrying one.

So, for soone who doesn’t even know this bag is sothing that only people who are too sheltered to the point that they don’t even know the recent happenings around the world.

Before Elaina can get confused further, one of the gods answers her query and it is the Goddess of dicine.
