Although the entire riverbank didn't seem to have many traces of human activity, in reality, this place was not as wild as it appeared. Leonard Ethan and Nevein only walked a few hundred meters before they saw a country road.
This road should be the one that the captain mentioned earlier, leading to the village. Since the area was not that large, it was unlikely that there would be two villages.
"What should we do next?" Nevein asked Leonard, looking at the road. "Shall we go to the village first and ask around, or directly head to our destination?"
"Let's go straight to our destination. There are still several hours before darkness falls, so we can use this time to get an idea of the situation there." Leonard said after some thought.
So they quickly crossed the road and went deep into the mountain forest. Fortunately, although it was a mountain road, it was not too rugged. They arrived at their destination around 5 PM.
