Not long after, Valeria almost finished all the food that was cooked by Rocky.
"Whew! I'm so full!" The food was so good that her appetite alone made her eat a lot even though originally, she was not even that hungry.
"Good. Now, you can take a nice rest. We'll set out at dawn, so go into the tree hole first. I just have to do something," Rocky said and eventually stood up.
"Wait! Where are you going?" Valeria could not help but ask.
"I'm just going to set up an enchanted barrier. We don't know when those ghostly demons might suddenly appear."
"Oh, okay." Afterward, Valeria also stood up and went into the tree hole. Upon sitting on the ground, she got herself comfortable and closed her eyes to recover her strength.
Rocky then proceeded to set up the enchanted barrier around the area. A bit later, he sat beside the fire and summoned Kohen.

Another two days had passed, and they were still walking inside the valley.
Ever since they entered the ominous valley, Rocky and Valeria saw all kinds of inconceivable scenes and things. Also, from time to time, they were faced with dangerous encounters.
Fortunately, Rocky had a countless stash of divine treasures from the palace. At any moment, he could use something to protect them.
However, what bothered Rocky was that they had not seen any trace of the members of the Shura Race yet. He knew that they were going in the right direction, but it was so eerie that they had not spotted any other living being aside from themselves.
Finally, on their fourth day of venturing inside the valley, they saw three warriors from the Shura Race. However, they were already dead.
"It looks like they are dead for about two days..." As Rocky inspected the corpses in front of them, he estimated their time of death. Moreover, judging from their injuries, he guessed that the ghostly demons were the ones who got them.
Since these three warriors were not from Layla's team, they could only assume that either Zain's team or Enoch's team had already passed through this area two days ago. It also meant that they were way ahead of Rocky and Valeria now.
