Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose) novel Chapter 1465

Maya placed her basket at the entrance of the cave as usual, but at this moment, she suddenly heard a heavy kick coming from inside.

Maya took a closer look and found a young girl in a white dress lying at the cave entrance. The girl's clothes were covered with bloodstains, and there were many scratches on her face.

"Little girl." Maya shook the girl's arm gently.

The little girl had apparently fainted. The kind-hearted Maya hurriedly carried her into the basket and went back with her.

"Mama," Maya shouted as soon as she entered the house.

Maya's mother walked out and was shocked to see the little girl in the basket.

Maya explained, "I picked up this girl from the cave near our family’s herb garden. Can you heal her, Mama?"

Mama looked uneasy and replied, "The Corvettes were here earlier to inform us not to take in anyone we don't know."

Maya smiled charmingly. "Look at her, Mama. She's so young and delicate. How can she be a bad person? The

gods told us to do more good deeds and help out the weak and helpless. I think the gods are testing us now. If we don't save her, the gods might get angry."

Mama was afraid of offending the gods, so she quickly put her hands together and said piously, "Praise the gods."

Then, she said to Maya, "Come and carry her into the house."

Maya carried the little girl onto a heatable brick bed. Mama took off her clothes to check her injuries. Then, she concluded, "She was injured in a fall. You’re right, Maya. If she was a bad person, she would’ve known some martial arts and wouldn't have sustained such injuries."

Her injuries were too severe and Mama was slightly at a loss. "Maya, I don't have any bright red tree resin and pine rosin in my house. You have to borrow some from Judy."

Maya nodded. "Okay."
