Just as she was about to retreat, she saw a boy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A boy with black hair and deep, watchful eyes, scanning his surroundings like a cornered animal searching for a weapon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That boy was Silas.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was ten years old at the time. Ivy, who had never celebrated her birthday, remained seven, leaving a three-year gap between them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Silas noticed her, surprise flickered across his face, but he quickly masked it and subtly formed an SOS signal with his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By then, Ivy had learned enough to understand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She followed his gaze to the men nearby and immediately knew she could not defeat them. So she hid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An entire day passed. Ivy did not dare move, her body pressed against the cold earth, her breath shallow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite her size, she remained vigilant, moving without sound, a skill ingrained into her by the Ravencroft family’s ruthless training.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy had always known how to survive on the edge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, the men continuously contacted Silas’s family, demanding ransom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silas, having gone without food for a day, felt his strength fading. He knew that if he did nothing, he would die before ever seeing his father again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked toward Ivy repeatedly, blinking in desperation, unsure whether she was too frightened or simply unwilling to help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As hours passed and she remained silent, his hope began to crumble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another day went by. Silas was beaten every five hours, his body bruised and broken until he could barely stand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By nightfall, even his voice had vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’So this is it,’ he thought faintly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, as the guards finally fell asleep, the forest sinking into uneasy silence, Ivy saw her chance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She rose slowly from her hiding place and walked toward Silas, her small steps soundless against the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silas, on the other hand, froze in disbelief the moment he saw Ivy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The last thing he remembered was being beaten until darkness swallowed his vision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that fading moment, he had truly believed that Ivy had left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’She ran away... just like everyone else,’ he had thought back then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who could have imagined that she had stayed hidden all this time?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who could have believed that a child so small had endured the same terror, silently watching, waiting, surviving?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Ivy appeared beside him, her movements were swift yet careful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her tiny fingers trembled as they worked on the restraints binding him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each second felt unbearably loud, his heart pounding so hard he feared it would wake the sleeping men nearby.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s okay,\" she whispered, her voice barely louder than the wind brushing through the leaves. \"Don’t make a sound.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The restraints finally fell away. Before Silas could even process what was happening, Ivy slipped an arm around him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With her small legs planted firmly into the damp earth, she lifted him with everything she had.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her body shook under his weight, her breath coming out in short, controlled bursts, but she did not stop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She began walking out of the forest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silas drifted in and out of consciousness, his vision blurred, but even in that haze, he could see her clearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her pink hair caught faint moonlight, glowing softly against the darkness, and her pink eyes shone with unwavering determination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if he could not see her face completely, he knew it was her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And there was the small mole on her right shoulder, visible when her sleeve slipped down as she adjusted her grip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That single detail etched itself into his mind forever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’So it was you,’ his fading consciousness whispered. ’You stayed.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That day, her image was engraved deeply into his mind, carved there as clearly as the bruises on his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back then, Silas could not call it love. It was not love. It was curiosity... sharp, restless, impossible to ignore. ’Who was that girl?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eventually, exhaustion dragged him into unconsciousness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he woke up, the sharp smell of disinfectant filled his nose, and white light stung his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A girl stood in front of him, arms crossed, chin lifted confidently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m the one who saved you,\" she declared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stared at her, confusion flickering through his still-hazy mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had straight black hair, neatly combed, and her name, as he later learned, was Isla.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew of her reputation well enough. She was famous throughout the military compound, known for flirting with many of the boys.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even at just seven years old, she already claimed three boyfriends.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This kind of behavior was something Silas’s family would never tolerate. Because of that, they had warned him repeatedly, ’Stay away from Isla.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he studied her face, something felt off. His brows knit together instinctively. \"You’re not the one,\" he said flatly. \"You didn’t save me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isla’s eyes widened for just a moment before she smoothed her expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a calm, almost rehearsed tone, she replied, \"If you doubt it, you can verify it. I can retell everything.\" Her confidence was unwavering, as though she had prepared herself for this confrontation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The investigation did not take long. The result was clear. It was not Isla. It was Ivy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After that, more girls appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One by one, they came to him, cheeks flushed, voices trembling, each claiming, \"It was me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each hoping to steal credit, to claim a connection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silas never fell for a single lie. He exposed them mercilessly every time they tried to deceive him, his cold gaze making them retreat in shame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time passed. The investigation continued quietly in the background until, at last, the truth surfaced completely. The girl who had saved him was Ivy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he learned that Ivy was Isla’s sister, everything finally made sense. That was why Isla knew so many details about the rescue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Curiosity gnawed at him. Wanting to see her reaction, he approached Ivy quietly one day when no one else was around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment Ivy saw Silas, she blinked in surprise. \"How are you?\" she asked simply.\u003C\u002Fp>",1018,"2026-06-05T15:12:36.808Z",1,"novelbin.me","19bcb89fe7205b9ee28d020c05287463d7c7974b0bfb16a6745f182668bbe543","zombie-apocalypse-i-have-safe-zone-superpower-chapter-476","zombie-apocalypse-i-have-safe-zone-superpower-chapter-474",706,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fzombie-apocalypse-i-have-safe-zone-superpower-cover.jpg"]
