Chương 79: Hunted Prey

The sun was about to set in the Land of the Heavenly, its golden ray of light that illuminated the evening like a reminder that nighttime would soon arrive. Birds were flying back to their nests as the temperature began to drop and the warm air slowly turned cooler.

Darkness eventually fell over the whole forest. The crescent moon emitted its faint glow while the stars shone brightly in the dark sky. Nocturnal animals and beasts came out to hunt as the wolves howled so loud their voices could be heard from kilometers away. As one wolf howled, another one followed suit, creating a continuous sound that seemed to never end.

Arias sat calmly on a big branch of a tree. Though it was a bit cold up here, it was still better than staying on the ground where dangers awaited. He never knew what kind of beast would be coming this way when he went to sleep. While making a campfire would help keep the wild animals away from the area, it would not do the same to beasts.
