The dead trees were now full of leaves.

Mark called out the digital map.
"According to the map, that's probably..."
"The entry to Sloth?"
"Yeah. Should be it."
"Mmm..." Elisa nervously scratched her elbow. "A Demon Lord's Territory... Entering it now-"
"It's the Monster Realm. Just because the one standing above is a Demon Lord doesn't mean we're... Trespassing or anything. I think."
"True. Still, entering it when it's still dark out would be... Stressful."
"What? You're scared?"
Elisa rolled her eyes at his words.
"It's not the same. Who knows what kind of Monsters we'll find in there? Or rather, what kind of Monsters will find us."
Mark's eyes narrowed for a bit.
