Veron nodded as she agreed with Bowen. Suddenly, a thought popped into her mind. "I agree this place looks beautiful, and it can relax a person's mind. But I don't see anything fun."
"The fun part is in the inner part of the ranch," Bowen answered with a smile. The way he looked at Veron was gentle and soft.
After spending two days together, Bowen had fallen in love with Veron, but he had not found the right time to confess.
'The inner part of the ranch?' Veron paused. After a while, she urged him, "Then let's go there now."
She tried to pull Bowen.
"Shh!" Suddenly, Bowen made a quiet gesture with his finger and dragged Veron to crouch in the bushes beside them.
Later, he looked around with vigilance.
Veron did not understand him. "Why are you so nervous?"
Just as Veron finished talking, a group of rider army passed by them. The rider armies wore unison black armor with long sabers in their hands. They looked terrifying.
Bowen did not answer immediately. He waited for the group of rider army to leave and replied, "Because the ranch is a forbidden area. No one is allowed to enter without the token. So we must be careful to avoid being discovered by those riders."
Veron nodded. Then she thought of something. "Isn't your father the Queen's trusted right-hand man? Don't you have the authority to enter here?"
Bowen smiled bitterly. "It's fine if you want to come in for a visit. But the person in charge of the ranch is my father's enemy. Those riders are his subordinates. So I don't want to be discovered to avoid causing any trouble."
Bowen did not lie. Even though his father, Kokun, was the Queen's right-hand man and had a high reputation among the tribe, he was not alone. A general called Tyson Eden had many war achievements and had the same authority as Kokun.
Veron did not answer him. She was stunned to see the view in front of her. Over at the other side of the hill was a bizarre-looking forest. The trees in the forest were bent like the shape of a crawling snake. In the middle of the forest was a black stone stele about several ten meters high.
That was not all. The entire grassy area was in fuchsia color. It gave Veron a perception that she had entered a different world.
"This…" After being shocked for several seconds, Veron regained her senses and asked, "What place is this?"
Trees that bent and fuchsia-colored grass. It was so bizarre.
Bowen smiled and said, "I don't know how to explain it to you too. When we decided to reside in this land, this place was just like what you see now. I was surprised when I saw it for the first time several years ago."
He looked around to ensure there was no black armored rider army around them. Then he said, "As far as I know, the Queen had sent people to investigate the reason behind it. But there was no result. There is definitely something weird about that place, so the Queen decided to list this place as a forbidden area."
