Flossie Wright continued along the route she had chosen.
By her calculations, it was a two-hour journey.
But the path ahead was relatively easy, free from too many obstacles, and Flossie Wright managed to reach the marked location in just an hour and a half.
In light of what Willie Ash had revealed through his words, Flossie Wright had made a point of looking around the area.
Not a single person in sight.
It was getting late, and Flossie Wright also abandoned the idea of continuing on.
She decided to stay overnight nearby.
Of course—
The condition was, to have a good meal first.
It had been over twelve hours since she ate breakfast, and during that time she and Perry Reed had not eaten anything.
By now, she was ravenous.
After scouting around, Flossie Wright first picked out a tree to spend the night in, then set about planning her evening meal.
However, just as she had gathered a pile of firewood, she heard faint footsteps.
"Who’s there?"
Putting the firewood down, Flossie Wright tilted her head and looked in the direction of the noise.
The sky was covered with dense clouds, the moon obscured, and even without rain, the jungle’s branches and leaves made everything pitch black.
If her eyes hadn’t adapted to the dark, she figured she would hardly be able to move in such a place.
The response to her question was not a human voice, but the call of a golden eagle.
Flossie Wright instantly realized something.
Subconsciously, she bent down slightly, feeling the overhead rush of the divine presence, and amidst the sudden cool breeze, Flossie Wright successfully caught the enthusiastic greeting.
"Perry Reed?"
Staring at the previous direction, Flossie Wright squinted and unexpectedly called out.
Meanwhile, the divine presence that missed her flew around the forest and then settled firmly on Flossie Wright’s shoulder.
This time Flossie Wright didn’t dodge it.
Before long, the footsteps became clearer, and within Flossie Wright’s field of vision, she made out Perry Reed approaching.
"It’s me."
Coming closer, Perry Reed stopped and coolly replied.
"What are you doing?" Flossie Wright raised an eyebrow.
"Bringing food."
Perry Reed casually responded.
Flossie Wright immediately fell silent.
Right now, food was what she needed the most.
Even though it was dark, she could use a rifle to get some food, but it certainly would take time.
She silently accepted Perry Reed’s presence.
Bending down again, Flossie Wright took out a match and successfully lit the campfire.
The moment the flame ignited, it immediately illuminated the surroundings.
Without haste, Flossie Wright added more wood to the fire.
Perry Reed leaned against a tree, his eyelids drooping slightly, his gaze shifting to rest casually on Flossie Wright.
His expression was somewhat hazy.
This was a woman very different from the one in his memory.
Willing to wear a military uniform, giving up freedom, just to stay here.
Her features lacked some of the usual cold indifference, showing more tenderness and tolerance. She was gradually being changed by the so-called Forces, becoming more distant from the Erina Taylor he remembered.
Perry Reed had never faced this issue head-on.
The Flossie Wright in front of him—
Was she really Erina Taylor?
The same Erina Taylor who once turned his Mercenary Corps upside down?
"Hey," Flossie Wright suddenly spoke up, then turned her head to look at him, "The fire’s good now."
The implication was that it was his turn to roast the rabbit.
