The flowing river is lush, its murky waters becoming crystal clear as the Denos Pass approaches, a place full of trees and waterfalls that flow into the narrowing river as it gets closer, 7 days have passed since the guild exo left the city of Rio and finally spot where the next journey through this fantastic virtual world began ...

Browser: -Mr, we're coming into the magic forest. - triggering the boat whistle.

Captain: Get ready let's dock soon! - Tell your crew.

Hytori: - Until that end! - stretching.

Aysa: -It wasn't about time.

Kamero: -You spent most of your time sleeping. - Tell Aysa.

Aysa: -Sure, beauty sleep is always welcome.

Kamero: -You get too attached to superfluous things. - expires in disapproval.

Hytori: -Kamero should change the name to "walking dictionary". -

Sarina: -kkk - Laughing sitting on the edge of the boat.

Kamero: And you for amnesia.

Sarina: -that boring ... - pouting.

Hytori: It got heavy on.

Kamero: Don't underestimate me, get your things ready. - see Yashina leaning against the edge of the boat away from them. -Hmm.

Aysa: She spent the trip like that. - noticing that Kamero was looking at Yashina.

Kamero: I hope things change now that we go to dry land.

Aysa: It is.

After a few minutes they arrive at the port that belongs to the village that names the passage, the village Denos.

Kamero: Thank you very much capital Sawatori for bringing us here. - bowing in respect.

Captain Sawatori: -You don't need this, you are my friends, it was a p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e spending these days in your company. Reaching out to Kamero.

Kamero: -share of it. - shaking the captain's hand.

Sawatori Hishida aka Captain 7 is a 63-year-old gentleman in sailor clothes. On his uniform were several medals and decorations for his service to the kingdom, his blue eyes and a long white beard and some marks on his face said a lot about how much. he was experienced and why he was tasked with leading them through.

Captain Sawatori: -Oh, Hytori don't forget that you owe 5000 coins of the shogi bet (Japanese chess) - smiling.

Hytori: You don't need to remind me. It's sulky.

Sarina: How did you lose so much to an old man?

Hytori: -He's good ...

Captain Sawatori: -Then that's it, good luck to everyone on your journey.

Sarina: -Good trip back, Captain.

Captain Sawatori: -Thank you, my dear.

After saying goodbye and seeing the boat disappear on the horizon as they sail back across the river, they head to the village to buy supplements.

Yashina: -Buy only the necessary. - sharing tasks for everyone.

Hytori: -You heard right Aysa.

Aysa: -I? Because I?

Kamero: -The spender is you.

Aysa: -Wow, my person is not such.

Hytori: -It seems so.

Sarina: Let's go, Hytori. - pulling him.

Hytori: Calm down. - being pulled.

The two go out to buy food from the city's merchants.

Aysa: -They are so close, right.

Kamero: Indeed.

Yashina: -I'll buy to see if I find a map. - going in the opposite direction.

Aysa: -What weather in.

Kamero: After that collapse things are going awkward, Yashina and Hytori have had sequels due to the impact, I hope this doesn't affect our guild's performance.

Aysa: -Oh, let's go.

Hytori and Sarina start looking for fruits and stuff for the trip.

Sarina: -This place has little food supply. - Looking at the stalls.

Hytori: -The reality outside the walls and mansions is another right. - selecting what appears to be tomatoes.

Sarina: In my city we have so much and here so little. - seeing some dirty and ragged kids selling with their parents. "I'd like to do something for them." - handing a gr.a.p.efruit to a girl who was sad on the cold floor.

Hytori: Who knows you can't change their reality one day. - Seeing the girl smiles while eating the fruit that Sarina gave her.

Sarina: That's it, I'll use my wind saint skills to help people.

Hytori: -What do you mean?

Sarina: -The saints are very influential people in the world, everyone respects and hails them, so I never really liked introducing myself to others. - looking at the girl. -but now I have a reason. - rubbing the girl's head with a hug and then runs to her family with more fruits.

Hytori: -I understand. - smiling as he approached Sarina kissing him.

Sarina: Well, we could have ours, right. - after kissing Hytori.

Hytori: -What what? - holding your waist.

Sarina: -daughter. - smiling.

Hytori: - Just kidding, right? We are too young for that. - speaking fast.

Sarina laugh at him.

Hytori: -What are you laughing at? - looking at her.

Sarina: The way it was when I spoke of children. - rubbing his face. -little fool.

Hytori: - Funny.

Sarina: Come here, my little one. - kissing him again.

On the other side of the village, Yashina finds an antique shop and checks for maps, Kamero and Aysa buy magical materials like potions, and everyone gathers at the entrance to the forest shortly after lunch.

Yashina: Unfortunately I didn't find a map.

Kamero: That's a problem, we can get lost in there.

Aysa: -What are we going to do?

Sarina: Try our luck, we can't wait any longer, we have to run so we don't lose track of Madoka.

Hytori: -Sarina is right.

Yashina: -Kamero you decide.

Kamero: -We have no other choice, let's go.

They enter the forest by a path that soon comes to an end in front of a giant tree.

Hytori: -Wh ...

Kamero: -From here we are without north.

Yashina: Be prepared for everything.

Aysa: Is it possible that in such a beautiful place there are dangerous things?

Hytori: No, there's only dangerous stuff in an ugly place like you.

Aysa: Take it back if you don't want to die, Hytori.

Hytori: -I don't.

Kamero: Stop the noise you two. - hearing something moving through the trees.

Yashina: Did you hear anything?

Kamero: -Yes ...

Sarina: -what can it be?

The forest had grown thicker after walking a little after the road they were following.

Hytori: -This silence is killing me.

Kamero: -It won't be the only thing that will kill you if you don't shut up.

A strong wind blows the leaves of the trees and shakes the bushes and branches there.

Aysa: -What was that? Feeling a chill go up her spine.

Sarina: It was just the wind.

Yashina: Wait, there's something moving there. - Pointing to a bush.

Kamero: -Aysa ...

Aysa; Okay, paralyzing knives!

Throwing several paralyzing knives toward the bush but before they could reach their target something leaps out of them jumping over them.

Hytori: -Oh my dad is a monster. - scared to see that.

Kamero: It's just a squirrel.

Hytori: -Hhan? - Watching the squirrel run away. -what a big squirrel in.

Sarina: -You get scared easy.

Hytori; -does not fill.

Aysa: -But that scared, scared. - holding a knife.

Yashina: At least we know we're not just here, let's hurry up, we have to get out of this forest before nightfall.

Near the entrance to a cave, the squirrel climbs the arm of someone covered by the remains of the bamboo that covered the area, the squirrel approaches his ear and begins to make sounds.

???: -This is interesting, very good my little friend. - petting the squirrel.

The guild exo after a little shuffle, walk again and time goes by, goes by, goes by ...

Hytori: -this forest has no end? - panting.

Aysa: My beautiful feet are already swollen from walking. - leaning against a rock.

Sarina: -of two, or this forest is bigger than we thought or we are lost.

Kamero: -I believe it's the second option.

Yashina: If we keep this up we'll be out of daylight fast.

???: -It looks like they're needing help. - in the middle of the trees.

Hytori: Huh?

Sarina: - Someone is approaching.

Kamero: -Who's there, show up.

???: -Certainly. - hands up.

Emerging from the tree line, a youthful-looking man with long black hair, wearing a kind of green-white kimono, showing part of his c.h.e.s.t, which had a red circle-shaped mark, on his waist he carried a piece of bamboo and in his mouth a piece of green straw.

Aysa: -Look. - biting the lips.

Yashina: Who are you?

???: -I'm Nizo Jushitsu, at your service. - With a serene look.

Kamero: What are you doing here? - suspicious of his appearance.

Nizo: -I love here in this magical forest so I know the place well. - crossing his arms.

Hytori: - Magic forest ...? - not quite understanding what that means.

Nizo: -Yes, this place has vast mana, which attracts many magical creatures, most are docile but always those who like to sneak. - Turns to Yashina. "I suggest they only cross it if they have a guide." - staring at her.

Yashina: -A guide?

Nizo: -I'm lucky for you, I'm one of them. - approaching Yashina.

Yashina: -... - flushed.

Hytori: -So you're a guide, damn that convenient right. - Seeing him look at her like that.

Aysa: -What I find, that is very lucky, a guide in the middle of the forest. - Smiling looking at him.

Kamero: Don't be too excited.

Hytori: We can't trust him.

Sarina: -Hytori ... - Watching him get annoyed by that.

Kamero: And how much would that cost us, guide?

Nizo: -I'm glad you asked. - Looking away from Yashina to Kamero. -To start something to eat, I'm days without eating anything, I'm running out of strength.

Hytori: -What? Are you really going to fall for someone who doesn't even know who it is? - outraged.

Sarina: -Hytori is right, we don't even know if we can trust him.

Aysa: - Nothing, a man like that is all good. - approaching him.

Nizo: -I appreciate the compliment, I think.

Kamero: -Yashina, the last word is yours.

Yashina: I'm sorry Nizo, but unfortunately this is all very strange. - taking something from your things. -take it. - handing you some fruits they had bought.

Nizo: -what? - Watching her hand him the fruits. - I can not accept, I will not do the service.

Yashina: You're hungry, aren't you, so welcome it.

Nizo: -a ... ok. -Receiving the fruits. Let me at least point you in the right direction. He points to the side they should take.

Yashina: -Thank you.

Kamero: We were going before it got dark.

They continue the crossing leaving Nizo behind, after walking a bit they come to a fireplace in the floret that shows that the day was coming to an end.

Sarina: -This evening.

Aysa: If we had accepted that guide's help we could already be out of this forest, it's all your fault Hytori.

Hytori: -What? - riled up.

Kamero: We did what we had to do.

Yashina: We'll camp here, tomorrow we'll continue.

Night falls, a gentle breeze runs through the woods, crickets and frogs orc.h.e.s.trate in that place.

Kamero: I will make the first watch.

Yashina: -I'm the second.

Aysa: -I'm the last one.

Hytori: That's helpful.

Sarina: -kkk.

The hours pass, the night gets darker and darker, the moonlight is being obscured by the trees, so it is Hytori's turn to watch as the others rest.

Hytori: -oh sleep ... - yawning. "I'm not used to this life yet."

He walks over to some round-shaped stones surrounded by pointed ones that were there near crimson roses, which for the sign erma very beautiful even in the pitch of night.

Hytori: -What strange roses, they seem to shine. - bending down to get one of them.

When he pulls one from the ground he feels something move the ground under his feet that start shaking.

Hytori: What was that? - the tremor shakes the place again.

Hytori feels dizzy, her head starts to hurt, it was bringing trauma and several confusing memory lapses from the last day of the tournament affect her mind leaving her in pain with her hand on her head.

Yashina: -han ... what is this? ... - you realize something. -Hey ... Hytori!

Huge fangs emerge from the ground wrapped around Hytori who is stunned on the ground without quite seeing what is happening, the fangs close towards him to devour him as the creature's body rises to the surface.
