"What's wrong?" Clovis furrowed his eyebrows. When he took a peek at the thing behind the tree, he was quite surprised to see a beast's corpse lying on the ground. "Huh?!"
Jay remained silent, but he also felt something was wrong. Melody hurriedly kneeled down and inspected the wound. "This doesn't seem to be from the beasts."

"This is quite troubling," Clovis muttered.
"Should we continue? It's not like that we'll have to fight if we meet another person, right?" Kanaria shrugged.
Clovis thought about it, but he couldn't dismiss the possibility that someone was targeting them.
