Three days passed slowly since the large group entered the desert. Ruri and Loeus were the only ones training in the sandstorms. After the days passed, Langrum and Almin noticed that the whale was intentionally taking longer routes and avoiding creating a too large camp, setting up a small tent at night as if holding back.
During the night, the whale finally spoke after the thirty deadweights were sleeping safely. "It seems they've finally decided to act. Almin, let's go. Ruri and Langrum, stay and protect everyone," he said, turning and leaving the small structure.
Almin followed the whale, thinking deeply. When they were at a safe distance from the others, the whale spoke. "There are five scouts with exactly the same cultivation level as yours."
