After filling his makeshift wooden jug with water, avoiding Fangeds on his return and spending all the mana he had available to use the Manifest Illusion spell, Sebastian reached the spot where he had hunted the Silent Howler.
He checked the ground where he buried the beast; everything looked just as he left it.
Yet, as the sun set, the need to find or create a shelter weighed on him.
With limited resources and no tools for cutting wood in a timely manner, he found himself in a very tough situation.
Sebastian dug into the earth. It wasn't safe to do that where he buried the Silent Howler, but he couldn't simply leave the creature there. It would have been a waste.
Besides, he planned on dismantling the body soon, so he wasn't that worried.
The task was grueling, hours slipping by as he carved out a space for himself with his bare hands.
