The leaves of the trees rustled as a green ant swiftly hops over the trees like a ninja silently chasing its victim.
The two still can't see the beast, but they know where it is going because the Blitzeaf is following it.
"I want that beast, brother!" Arie urged while running in the direction where the leaves are rustling.
"Here, wear this!" Urie threw the green gloves towards his little brother.
"What should I do with this?" Arie asked.
"Wear that until you capture that beast! Remember, you need to return that to me!" Urie reminded him while taking out two cards.
Angin and Hagin emerged as they flew towards where Blitzeaf is while supporting each other.
Angin and Hagin blew some Paralytic Dust to where the invisible beast is.
The beast emerged as it fell to the ground.
Arie looked closer and saw the beast's information.

"Woah! An invisibility beast!" Arie exclaimed as he looked at the blue with a pink pattern frog.
"Do you think it can help us with our current situation?" Urie asked his brother.
"I don't know, I hope it can understand us. Hey little buddy, do you know any information about the Guellin?" Arie asked as soon as he summoned it out of the card.
The Phansy only looked at him with confusion, as if it can't understand anything.
"I guess we can continue to guess our way out of here!" Arie sighed helplessly and looked at his brother.
"Let me try." Urie suggested as he approached the frog beast.
"Hey there, can you understand me?" Urie asked and the frog only leaned its head as if trying to understand what Urie was saying.
An interface suddenly appeared, but this interface differs from the others. Besides it keeping the semi-transparent blue color, the other features are glitchy except for the words it showed.
[Attempting to learn a new skill!]
[Progress: 2 of 100%]
"Skill learning interface? I think I haven't read this one from the guidebook?" Urie curiously looked at the interface as he thought.
"I told you, it will be difficult to talk to these beasts! It's nearly impossible!" Arie irritatingly tried to urge his brother to stop even though from the looks of his brother, it won't budge no matter what happened.
"Wait! I think I can do this. Let me try again!" Urie insisted as he looked again at the frog.
"Do you know a beast named Guellin? It lived around here somewhere." Urie asked again, and the frog nodded in response.
[Progress: 35 of 100%]
"What? It jumped that high when it responded to my question!" Urie exclaimed from his thoughts when he saw the bar from the interface jumped a huge chunk further from the half mark.
"Come on, brother! No matter what we do, it won't respond to us!" Arie urged, but when he saw the creepy smile on his brother's face, he knew that something good happened to him.
"Don't tell me you can communicate with it?" Arie curiously asked, trying to get the clarification from his brother, but Urie only ignored him.
"Can you point to me where you last saw Guellin?" Urie asked.
"Follow!" Phansy voiced in a cute toddler voice and started jumping in a direction.
[Progress: 89 of 100%]
"Is this for real? I can understand beasts once I have completed the progress?" Urie excitedly thought.
"Do you know anything about Guellin?" Urie asked, trying to know and also to see if he can complete the progress bar.
"Guellin… Misty… Mother." Phansy replied in a cute toddler voice when a ring echoed at Urie's ears.

Anura Language Acquired!]
The two interfaces that appeared in front of him surprised him and, at the same time, disappointed him greatly.
"I can actually talk to beasts, but I need to communicate to different kinds of beasts just to know their language! What a lot of work to do!" Urie shook his head and sighed.
"Can I take your attention now? You've been ignoring me for a while!" Arie annoyingly said as he walked behind Urie, who was following Phansy.
"Oh, sorry brother! This new skill that I gained fascinated me, but it also gives me headaches!" Urie shook his head.
"Why? Does it have something to do with you communicating with my Phansy?" Arie asked.
"Sort of, well, you see, I gained a skill that can help me understand what the beasts are saying, but I need to do that several times for different kinds of beasts, if I want to fully talk to them, I need to try to communicate with a lot of beasts!" Urie ranted to his brother.
"Well, I think that's how the system balances the skill, communicating with beasts is an overpowered skill and needed to be given some limitations!" Arie shrugged his shoulders at his brother's rants.
"Fine! I guess I really don't have the right to rant about an excellent skill like this!" Urie shook away the negativities and kept the thing about the glitchy interface to his brother.
They followed Phansy until they appeared at a wide crystal clear lake where different Water Attributed beasts are either leaping from the side, swimming on the lake, or drinking from it.
Phansy stopped at a muddy area of the lake where a print of hooves can be seen going to a certain location.
"Is this the place where you last saw Guellin?" Urie tried to ask for clarification to Phansy.
Phansy nodded in response as it changed back to its card form on its own.

Urie looked at his Quest Interface and saw that the counter for the clues increased.
"I guess we are on the right track!" Urie sneered while looking in the direction where the muddy trails lead.
They followed the trail and saw some bushes with some of its leaves having bite marks and the berries littered around.
They kept on following the trail until they reached a wide area where a large stump was and a beast was standing atop of it.
"I guess we are going to finish this quest!" Urie grinned while looking from far away.
"Who's there?" A voice rang around as an interface appeared in front of Luis.
[Artiodactyla Language Learned!]
"What the? How?"
