Two years later.
At the heart of the Never-Ending Forest, inside the magnificent palace, the three strongest beasts sat on their thrones with pride and arrogance.
"The humans have stopped their meaningless attempt to escape this forsaken continent," the Tiger King said with a disdainful voice.
"What do you expect?" the Eagle Queen snorted. "Without us even attacking, could those pathetic humans survive in this forest?"
"How many of them have lost their pathetic lives?" She clicked her tongue. "Who would think that when I need to increase my slaves, they would stop?"
"You're right," the Tiger King nodded. "I can't just wait for our mission to be over and return home."
The Ape King looked at his two comrades with a blank expression.
It was impossible to guess his thoughts just by looking at his face.
Why were the two lost in their arrogance? He knitted his brow slightly.
He sensed something amiss.
