As the small party left the main road, the sounds of some distant animals were heard. Slivia frowned slightly. "Jack, are you sure about this?"
"Of course, don't worry about it. Nothing's strong enough to threaten us around here," replied Jack. "Now, both me and Bowzer are lv. 18 and can protect you from anything."
"Okay," agreed Slivia. She held Jack's hand a little tighter as they went further into the forest.
On the way, they passed a few animals and even fought a few grey wolves, if you could call Bowzer one-shotting the wolves and trying to eat them alive. It took some bribing, but Jack was able to convince Bowzer to leave the corpses until they finished with the hidden tomb since they were nearly there.
It was already late afternoon with the sun beginning to set when Bowzer slowed and came to halt. 'Here.'
