Vile Evil Hides Under The Veil
chapter-1325

Rat-a-tat! Bom! Bom! Bom!

The celebration soared to new heights as the night deepened, with the Amazonians unleashing an even greater fervor. Their determination to revel until the break of dawn was evident, fueled by an unquenchable energy that seemed to know no bounds.

Above, the midnight sky sparkled with countless stars, their brilliance amplified by the gentle embrace of the silvery moonlight. Its ethereal glow bathed the Dark Daniera Forest, suffusing the atmosphere with a mystical aura.

Eren, Marla, and Almera, finding solace in each other's company, ventured deeper into the depths of the forest. As they distanced themselves from the lively celebration, the nocturnal sounds of the forest creatures mingled with the distant echoes of Amazonian songs, serving as a reminder of the spirited revelry that continued in their absence.

Eren, now adorned in the traditional attire of an Amazonian man, epitomized their vibrant culture. Around his waist, a pleated knee-length kilt in fiery red, crafted from twill-woven worsted wool, swayed with each step.

The distinctive tartan pattern hinted at the rich heritage of the Amazonian culture. His bare torso bore the markings of approval, vibrant red and blue ink forming intricate patterns, bestowed upon him by the Amazonians during the celebration. Adorning his neck were necklaces adorned with the talons and teeth of various beasts.

On his wrists, Eren wore bracelets crafted from strange mana stones, pulsating with the power of the elemental powers. The waist-length cascade of his ebony hair framed his face, cascading down his back, making him look like a typical Amazonian warrior.

The hide belts that enveloped his toes served as his traditional footwear, a nod to the customs of the Amazonian men. Every aspect of Eren's appearance gave off the feeling of being one with the wild, allowing him to seamlessly blend into the vibrant tapestry of the Amazonian community.

Eren's effortless participation in the folk dance left an indelible impression on Marla and Almera. While rare instances of Rankers visiting the Amazonian zones had occurred, those encounters often felt fraught with a sense of awkwardness and detachment.

However, Eren's presence defied these expectations, his ability to immerse himself in their customs far surpassing that of any previous Ranker. He bridged the gap between their worlds, embodying the spirit of a lost ambassador who returned to his roots.

It could be said that Eren stood as a trailblazer, the first Ranker to forge such a profound connection with the Amazonians since the great Calamity War. His seamless presence among the Amazonians was a testament to his uncanny ability to change his persona from the ground up to suit the situation.

Marla and Almera walked alongside Eren, engrossed in a conversation about their future plans. The two women shared their decision to stay in an Amazonian settlement for several months.

Having received the Great Mother's blessing, known as Mother's Embrace, they needed time and support to master its effective use. Being Rankers themselves, Marla and Almera faced the challenge of finding a harmonious balance between their identities as Rankers and Amazonian priestesses. They needed to make a few changes to their ranking path in order to accommodate the newfound Abilities bestowed upon them by the goddess.

One of the plus points of a Ranker's path was the fact that it was as malleable as one wanted it to be, provided one put in the necessary efforts. Eren fully supported Marla and Almera's choice to remain in Valeria's settlement.

The butcher understood the importance of their growth, especially with the impending escalation of the conflict between Edinburgh and Layos. The White Raven Guild faced the challenge of fulfilling numerous contracts with Edinburgh, which meant a potential shortage of Rankers within their folds. The quality took precedence over quantity, and Eren believed that Marla and Almera's training in the Amazonian settlement would strengthen them greatly in the future. This was a long game Eren was willing to play.

As they reminisce about their past in LA, Eren, Marla, and Almera shared laughter and engaging conversations. Eren's eloquence and storytelling prowess effortlessly overshadowed any lingering inferiority complex Marla might have subconsciously developed.

Though Eren found himself occasionally stealing glances at Marla's alluring figure, he admired her beauty beyond mere physical attributes.

Marla was in a typical Amazonian look. She had adorned herself with a necklace passed down through generations, each intricate bead carrying stories of triumph and struggle, while the feathers woven within danced gracefully, symbolizing the spirit of liberation.

Marla donned a fitted blouse made from the sturdy hide of a powerful beast, accentuating her natural curves. As she walked, her ample breasts swayed, drawing Eren's attention briefly, illuminated by the moonlight that embraced her form.

Her attire continued with form-fitting Capri pants crafted from Amazonian cloth, adorned with enigmatic markings. The garments accentuated her shapely waist, well-defined posterior, and graceful legs, revealing an alluring figure.

Completing her ensemble, Marla wore moccasins made from the supple hide of a D-Ranked deer, providing both comfort and flexibility as she moved in harmony with the earth. Delicate beadwork adorned the moccasins, inspired by the wonders of nature, exemplifying the interconnectedness between all living beings and their surroundings.

With every step, Marla embodied a timeless grace, reflecting the resilience and unwavering spirit of her people. She personified the captivating beauty and strength of the Amazonian culture, leaving all who witnessed her presence in awe.

Marla was not the only person Eren was paying attention to. Almera, who walked to his left, was equally worthy of his glances.

Almera's lustrous brown hair cascaded down her shoulders, reflecting the calming hues of the moonlight. Her captivating black eyes shimmered with a hint of mystery, drawing Eren into their depths. Her soft, rosy skin looked even more delicate under the stars, emanating a natural radiance that spoke of vitality and health.

It was clear that Mother's Embrace had also done a little something to make her look even more attractive than she already was. Her peach-colored lips, adorned with a natural glow, added a touch of sweetness to her already captivating features.
