Several days have passed since Vicente and Layla fought the ogres.
In those days, they continued their journey west, encountering and even fighting some powerful beasts. But they hadn't encountered any other kind of monster since the short fight against the ogres.
They had stopped in a city in the Seidel Kingdom, but after leaving that place, they were very close to leaving that state for good.
After the next city where they stopped to rest, their next stop would be the Chutha Dynasty, in the far east of that great state in the west of the Seidel Kingdom.

Vicente and Layla were finishing collecting a valuable medicinal plant they had found on their way earlier.
Such chance encounters were quite common in Polaris Realm. The continent was huge, and mana was found irregularly in nature. In addition, just like on Earth, living beings could spread all kinds of plants as they traveled, leaving behind food scraps and so on.
