The group spent a full day and night resting before they finally began to move. Although the temperature dropped a bit, it still was pretty hot at night…
During most of the night and day, Sigma kept an eye around the area to make sure that the enemies wouldn't find them by sending scouts, but he didn't see a single soul moving around.
Once the group left the forest, they took a look around and didn't see any signs of human activities. Heilia still was ten kilometers away, but it looked like the inhabitants didn't feel the need to scout the area, not even once a week.
Thanks to his sharp senses, Sigma was walking ahead to make sure that he would hear or feel if there were any enemies waiting ahead, and the others walked one hundred meters behind.
