Cale had heard that the poison in the snowstorm made people grow weaker while going blind and losing their sense of direction.

Cale thought about this fact and started to think.

�This is actually a cruel world if you think about it.�

The Desert of Death spewed out dead mana while the Lake of Despair had a poisonous snowstorm.

This world also had many scary existences outside of turmoil between people for power. There were many strong and cruel beings throughout this world, such as Beast people or races with the darkness affinity.

�But that is why the monsters can�t do anything.�

They all prevented the monsters from running wild. This led to the regions with monsters being very small. Of course, Cale did not care as he had no plans to meet with monsters.

The owner�s grandson cautiously warned them as if he was worried about their first guests in a while.

�Anyway, please carefully think about it if you plan to go there. It is a very scary place.�

�Sully.�

The grandson stopped talking after hearing his grandmother, who had not said anything until now, call out his name. The inn owner looked toward the fire and started to speak.

�There is something I�ve felt as I watched people head to the Lake of Despair.�

The old woman�s shadow seemed to fill up the walls that looked to be as old as her.

She had lived here since she was young. She ended up marrying a man who was an adventurer and the two of them had built this inn together.

They then had a daughter and watched her get married and give birth to her grandson.

The old woman turned her head.

She made eye contact with Cale.

�None of them listen.�

None of the people heading to the lake ever listened.

�My daughter and son-in-law were the same way.�

Her husband who had died a few years ago had told her that he would go see their daughter and son-in-law who left before them and told her to take her time before joining them. He had told her to stay until their grandson grew up and got married.

The old woman had told him that she would do that.

The old woman who had been observing Cale�s eyes turned her head.

��It looks like you are listening, but still plan to go anyway.� JrNovels.com
