We walked for a few more hours; nothing unusual happened during this time period. Right now, we're resting around some bushes.
"Elsa, how much longer do you think until we reach the beast's zone?"
Elsa took out her map and observed it for a few minutes.
"If I'm not mistaken, we should arrive in a few more hours of walking. We need to find a reference point, which is the small ruined house, and go from there."
Thinking for a moment, I reply: "Alright then, let's rest a bit more."
"Oh, by the way, we need a plan. As you know, we're facing an intelligent beast of maximum-silver rank. It's a step above me, but it shouldn't be a problem. According to the guild mission, there are 3 beasts of the same species as its minions."
"I can handle all 4, but I need to completely cover myself in aura, and at the same time, I need to stay focused. For that, I need you to stay out of this fight."
