�The Forest of Darkness is a regular forest, just like any other.�

Cale saw that Witira had quickly approached him and was walking at the same pace as him and continued.

�But the thing inside of it is different.�

Nobody knew the reason why, but the Forest of Darkness often had mutated plants and monsters. It was easy to tell the mutated monsters apart because they looked different, but it was more difficult for the plants. Although they might look similar, a mutated version of an herb used for healing could end up being poisonous.

�And there are also monsters that are generally found in the Eastern Continent as well.�

That was why it was one of the Forbidden Regions. It was the one place on this continent that they could find traces of the Eastern Continent.

�Young master-nim!�

Cale nodded toward Vice Captain Hilsman, who had called out to him, before turning back to speak to Witira.

�Please take care of the children.�

�Of course. There are quite a lot of young Beast people.�

Witira quietly watched Cale who sighed with an annoyed expression at her statement. Cale then turned around and headed toward Hilsman.

�Let�s go.�

�Yes sir.�

Cale only had Hilsman with him as they headed to a certain location.

�Here it is.�

Many graves were located here. This was where Choi Han had buried all of the villagers of the Harris Village.

Hilsman moved away from Cale and went to stand with the soldiers before looking toward Cale. The fact that Cale Henituse came to this village was surprising, but the fact that he looked for the graves as soon as he got off the carriage was even more surprising.

The Vice Captain had moved away to give Cale some alone time. Of course, Cale didn�t even realize or care about the Vice Captain�s action and just started to talk to himself.

��The fact that he didn�t go crazy is amazing.�

The fact that Choi Han remained sane after this incident was amazing.

Choi Han seemed to have put a lot of effort into these graves, but they were mostly just made with dirt. In addition, they did not have any gravestones, instead they just had their names written on flat pieces of rock. Cale counted the number of graves.

Choi Han had personally buried all of the bodies underneath the graves.

Cale had an interesting thought every so often. The reason behind the death of the Harris Village villagers that had remained a mystery in the novel. The novel made it sound like it was done for the main character to develop. But was that really it?
