The silver moon shone brightly, accompanied by the whistling of the forest wind.
In Lantern Firefly's hand was an owl-like Demon Beast, one of Char's captures for the night. Of course, the other harvest was the Praying Power gained from slaying the Undead.
The owl had first been injured and then knocked unconscious.
Knocking it out was necessary; the Demon Beast's destructive power was too strong. If it were not knocked unconscious, it could become aggressive at any moment, making it hard to control.
Even though it was knocked out, Char did not let his guard down and chose the always reliable Lantern Firefly to hold onto it. Whenever there were signs of the owl Demon Beast waking up, they would hit it again.
This owl-form Demon Beast, known as the Night Helmeted Owl, was a level 2 challenge Demon Beast, larger than the Clover Mantis with feathers as black as night, glistening with a metallic sheen. It flew almost silently at night, like a silent assassin.
