Chapter 19 Tricked

The village's terrain is too complex, and we're short of manpower. It's getting late now, so how about we spend the night in the car and make plans tomorrow morning?"

It's important to save Little Master, but if we're all ambushed and trapped here, we'll lose more than we gain. And besides, I don't think anything will happen to Little Master tonight."
- Vania furrowed her brow. How could she not understand what Henry and Leo meant? She had been waiting for such a long time; why would she mind waiting a night longer? At this very moment, however, she had a sense that her child was no longer here. This wasn't the first time such a thing had happened, so she was already able to accept it with equanimity. Still, unwilling to resign herself to the outcome, she said, "Let's open the door and take a look. Don't go in, though. Be careful."
