After Orion finished recounting the details of his story, silence filled the place for only a few seconds.
After that, Oliver stepped toward him.
"Did you say you passed through an area with trees that had black leaves and black fog?"
Orion lifted his head toward him.
"Yes, that is exactly what happened."
It was the same area he and his companions had crossed before arriving here.
Upon hearing that, he kept his expression calm.
Unlike him, the reaction was clearly visible on Lemur's face, although he still did not move.
Aria's eyes also widened slightly and a real interest appeared on her face.
Oliver approached her.
"Have you passed through such an area too?"
"It seems you have passed through it as well."
He ignored her direct comment and moved on to the next point.
"Is there a way to communicate with the mythical creature Orion made a deal with?"
"I do not think it would enjoy communicating with its food during digestion."
"What exactly do you mean?"
