Wilderness

It was still early in the morning when Kyle and Selene left the town.

Dirk was apparently on leave today, but that worked in favor of Selene.

Selene was unsure how long she could keep a poker face in front of everyone else if she were to see guard Dirk once again.

Kyle was not as bothered as Selene was, but even he felt glad about Dirk's absence.

Once they were outside the town, they searched for small groups of beasts at the Initial Fortification stage.

They were the only type of beasts Kyle, Selene, and the Emerald fox could hunt on their own.

In the end, they had only walked for a few minutes before Selene spotted a large group of Killer ants.

She quickly pointed at them for Kyle to see.

They were still far away and seemed to be gathering around something large.

The Killer ants were possibly feasting over a corpse making loud clicking noises as they tore the flesh apart.
