After a few days of traveling, the group finally made it to the area where they would meet William Minerva.
"SO BIIIG!!!"
"I can't believe these trees!" Gilda said as she and the rest of the children examined the area in awe.
"It's a forest!" Yvette said.
"But way bigger than the other ones we've seen!" Don added.
"Is the hideout in there?" Oliver asked.
"Yes! We've almost arrived." Jin responded.
'It's true that this area is far away from the demon villages...But I bet this forest must be brimming with wild demons. And they settled hundreds of people in such a place...?' Ray thought.
"The trees all look the same, I can't tell where we're going!"
"I'll go ahead first to tell the Boss about you folks!" Hayato said. "Jin, Zazie, show the way to our friends and keep 'em safe!"
"Roger!" Jin replied.
Hayato took off very fast, shocking the other children.
'He's fast!!'
'Hayato is actually fast!!'
'What was that? No...Come to think of it, at that time this guy had...He's...No...They are-' Ray thought.
"Here it is." Jin said, cutting his thoughts off. Jin pointed to the entrance, leading in between the overgrown roots. "This is our hideout."
The children looked at the place in bewilderment.
"WOW! WOW! WOW! WHAT IS THIS PLACE?!" Both Thoma and Lannion exclaimed.
"Our hideout." Jin repeated.
"Yes, we know that..." Gillian sweatdropped.
'An entire town...Inside a tree?' Emma thought as the group looked around. 'Amazing...It's a town, really. They got everything. And what's more...All these kids have a smile on their faces.'
Many of the children started greeting the newcomers.
"Welcome!"
"Wow! The fugitives are here, dude!"
"Nice to meet you!"
"Welcome!"
'This is the paradise that Minerva built...'
"You must be tired. Here's some tea. We have sweets too." A kid said as he and some other children passed out refreshments and snacks.
"S-S-Sweets?!"
"Enjoy!"
"Thanks!"
Ray only looked around as he accepted a drink. Y/n grinned as he spotted high areas. Then, when he was about to go up there, he felt someone grab his arm and he turned to see Ray deadpanning.
"Hehehe..." The boy sweatdropped.
"Emma!" Hayato called out. "The Boss wants to meet the leader!"
Emma turned to Oliver and he nodded with a smile.
"I'll be back soon!" Emma waved as she followed Hayato and Zazie.
'Finally...Finally, I'll meet him.' Emma thought as she remembered the beginning.
'It was thanks to you...that we could escape. Thanks to you...We could have these two years of happiness.'
They then arrived at a door and Hayato knocked.
