Exploration begin

Allen peeked outside, ensuring there was nothing around them before everyone stepped out of the Golden Land.

"It doesn't seem like anything is watching," Allen said as he emerged from the thick foliage, followed closely by Clementia, Lucilia, and Percival.

"If anything did see us, it would only be low-level monsters," Percival remarked.

"I thought only high-level monsters lived here?" Lucilia asked.

"Where there is life, there is an ecosystem. If the strong exist, so do the weak—though most of them are naturally weeded out. The weaker the monster, the less intelligence it has," Percival explained.

"But isn't it a bit of a miracle that no demon lord knows about the Golden Land?" Allen questioned.

"They either can't find it or simply aren't interested," Percival replied. "I don't know the exact reasoning, but Eliphas designed this place based on dungeon rest chambers. Plus monsters instinctively avoid areas that lack demonic mana."
