That Isabel feels threatened when she sees Nova is quite reasonable considering the girl's power. She is equivalent to a Third Stage Junior Knight while Isabel is an Apprentice Magus in the Basic Stage.

Considering their basic strength, they could be considered equal.

Arthur didn't tell Isabel about it, he walked towards Nova.

The latter was calm enough, more often looking at Isabel with curiosity.

As a woman of Vera City, she admired her too.

On the other hand, the wolves looked at Arthur warily.

"What are you doing here?" Arthur asked her.

The young woman pursed her lips slightly before answering, "hunting!"

"Oh..." Arthur glanced at the wolves briefly and asked again, "do you come to this forest often enough?"

"Yes!" Nova nodded.

"Then what do you think is the really dangerous place?"

If it were just ordinary bears, even his aunt might not feel pressured at all. Given that she wanted to use her powers to the fullest, Arthur needed to take her to a truly frightening place. That's why he asked about it.

Nova seemed to be thinking after hearing his question.

Then, she looked at a tributary that was almost invisible because the surrounding trees were too dense, almost covering it.

"I heard there's a large cave at the end of that tributary, I haven't been there, but it's said that there are many dangerous wild animals there," she said.

Hearing that, Arthur looked at Isabel. "How about we go there, aunt?" he asked.

Isabel looked at the tributary. Briefly, she felt nervous.

Of course, that was reasonable. Not to mention the fact that it was now night and the sky was quite dark, even during the day, a group of people would think twice about going to that tributary.

However, when she remembered her own strength, Isabel forced down her nervousness.

"Sure, I also want to know what's there," she replied.

Meanwhile, Arthur began to think about how they would move. Walking beside the tributary might be quite difficult because of the dense trees. It would slow down their movements.

After a while, he looked at a tree that wasn't too big but had a wide trunk, right next to the main river. Arthur knew that it was the kind that would float well on water.

"Please wait a minute," he said to his aunt before walking towards the tree.

As soon as he arrived near the tree, he waved his hand.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Several wind blades shot out from his hand, heading towards the tree branches.

Easily, they cut through each branch until they fell to the ground.

In an instant, there were no more branches left, so the tree looked like a pillar.

Seeing Arthur's strength, Nova breathed in, thinking that this man was indeed very dangerous. If she fought against him, the result would only be death.

After that, Arthur cut the trunk of the tree.

BANG!

It then fell into the main river.

"Are we going to use this tree?" Isabel asked as she approached Arthur.

The latter nodded and answered, "let's jump!"

After saying that, he jumped onto the tree trunk, landing on it stably.

Isabel was a bit hesitant. Although she was used to jumping, she thought this was still a bit difficult.

But, as usual, she forced herself.

Whoosh!

She jumped onto the tree trunk and managed to land on it.

It's just that she seemed to have used too much strength. The tree trunk swayed because of the pressure from her landing, something that almost caused her to fall.

Fortunately, Arthur quickly grabbed her waist, lifting her body slightly before stabilizing the tree trunk with his feet.

Phew!

The woman sighed after Arthur lowered her body. With a smile, she said, "Thank you!"

Arthur only responded with a thin smile. Then, he knelt on the trunk of the tree.

Of course, he didn't need anything like an oar. With his magical power, he could control the tree trunk as if it were a ship.

However, before he did so, Nova suddenly approached, stopping at the spot where Arthur and Isabel had jumped off.

The woman showed a hesitant expression, but Arthur and Isabel could easily guess her thoughts. She wanted to join them.

Arthur thought it was fine if she came along because she was skilled in fighting. In other words, she shouldn't be a burden. It was just that she had been soundly defeated by Arthur, making her appear weak.

Before she said anything, Arthur said, "Jump if you want to come with us!"

"Is it okay if I join?" She suddenly asked, as if she was still unsure. Perhaps her hesitation was because of Isabel's presence. The young woman kept glancing at her repeatedly.

Isabel, aware that she was the cause of her hesitation, chuckled softly. "What are you worried about, miss wolf? " She said jokingly.

"I became a magus just because my nephew taught me. Outside of that, I'm still the same woman you often see on TV."

Hearing that, Nova rolled her eyes.

At the same time, Arthur added, "as long as you don't bring your wolves or they will sink this tree!"

Since both of them had confirmed that it was okay, Nova finally had no more doubts.

She signaled her wolves to go to the forest by themselves.

After that, she jumped onto the tree trunk.

Unlike Isabel, she landed perfectly, not even making a sound.

Isabel looked at her feet for a moment before looking at her face. "How long have you been practicing?" she asked.

Perhaps chatting with Isabel made the young woman happy, she hastily replied, "I've been practicing since I was little, but my power has only recently increased. That's a normal case for us werewolves."

Isabel was curious about werewolves, so she began asking Nova question after question.

On the other hand, Arthur began to use his magic to control the tree trunk.

It moved like a motorized ship, fast enough but stable.

In a short time, it arrived at the dark tributary.

Whether it was Arthur, Isabel, or Nova, even though they had spiritual power, their line of sight was still very limited.

The moon was indeed shining brightly in the sky, but its light was blocked by branches and leaves from the trees that covered the tributary.
