"Midnight! Onyx!...Alice!?" Walker was the first to spot the three that had just crushed the jungle dogs. They were still prepared for another fight but had clearly lost track of time while they had explored the forested area near the mouth of the river. "We heard the commotion and came running. Why are all three of you here without the rest of your squad? Did you split up too? Are you all right?"

The amount of worry Walker had was a little high since he knew that they had gone out, but he had not known that Alice had gone out as well. But even more, he saw how many jungle dogs there were and knew that they had fought the monsters at the same time. It was dangerous regardless of their situation.

"Brother, we are safe. We were just handling some annoying monsters that decided we were an easy target. They did not expect us to be as powerful as we are as a trio." Onyx's pride here was backed up by Alice who put her hands on her hips. The two of them knew that they could easily beat this many monsters over and over again if they needed to.

"Weak. not even worth snacks." Midnight huffed a little before going over to Alice and making Alice take out the sand jack to shop Walker.

"Is this what you hunted before we came here to see you?" Gil was examining the monster with great interest. He had never seen it but could already tell that it was similar to the horned rabbits. "I bet they are faster than the hired rabbits. They don't seem to have poison either, I wonder if a snare would be better than an arrow. I want to try it."

There was a great temptation for Gil to start hunting the sand jacks. Unfortunately, he could tell that he had to leave for the ship with the others. They had to be there when the other ships arrived. If he were to miss Alma's arrival then he would be in a world of trouble for some time. Not that he didn't want to see her. He was looking forward to it more than anything at the moment.

"Please everyone remain focused. There are only seven jungle dogs here. If I am correct, there should be a few more somewhere else." Su had a feeling that a pack like this would be larger. She could see that these monsters were a bit weaker than others but had clearly spent a lot of time together. She was also the first to notice that there were many footprints around them.

It wasn't that Su was an expert when it came to the footprints and trac king. That was Gil's expertise. Yet, when she looked at the ground to examine the monsters that the trio had defeated, she saw footprints that could not have been made during a single fight. Almost as if many more monsters were here and ran off away from their location. 𝗳𝗿𝐞ℯ𝙬𝗲𝗯n𝗼νel.𝒄𝑜𝘮

The addition of yipping and distance growling made it clear that su had caught on to this in the perfect amount of time. There was another group of jungle dogs returning from their hunting. They were coming back to the rest of the pack that had waited behind for them. But even more, they had heard the scuffle as well and ran back even faster.

Without any hesitation, Alice had started the same song before. Her song of shields and swords created the three light condensed blades that attacked and the two light shields that defended. She was the first one to send a shield out to block one of the jungle dogs leaping at Remey.

In turn, Remey took the opportunity and slammed downward on to the head of the jungle dog with her fist. It was a single hit kill for her but also a perfect collaboration with Alice. "Good song, keep it up." The brutal grin on Remey's face was somewhat matched by Alice's tone. The swords and the shields seemed to become denser with the encouragement showing just how much mana Alice added to her words. Just how much the emotions she felt could affect her songs.

Midnight was able to get near Walker. The two didn't need to speak to communicate what they would be doing. In a single breath, Midnight breathed out her golden dragon flames. Walker perfectly manipulated them using his grand elemental manipulation to keep them from burning the grasses and nearby trees. But he did not stop them from hitting three jungle dogs that were charging at them through the grass.

From the side, four more jungle dogs had tried to flank the group. They were too in the open at the moment and from any monster's perspective, they were an easy target. That was a poor train of thought to keep though, Because Gil and the dragonkin warrior had their bows drawn and released arrow after arrow. The four jungle dogs couldn't even growl again to scare anyone or anything before their defeat.

It would have been simple to let things go there and to run off. The jungle dogs had already more than lost. They could see their fallen pack members everywhere around them. But their alpha was still standing. Yet, their alpha was nothing standing in front of Su.

The single shield charge it took to slam the jungle dog alpha in to a tree was enough to shatter bones. The following tail slam from Onyx was enough to crush the remaining two pack members of the jungle dogs. They had no chance to run away because they hesitated after seeing their pack's defeat. If they had followed their instincts to run, they might have had a chance to rebuild another pack and terrorize the village that would have been built here in the future.

"That's it!" Remey jumped up feeling better than ever. She knew they were technically just ambushed by monsters but they had easily worked together to beat them. It took only a few minutes and a great danger for the average person was beaten. Now all Remey could do was stretch a little while Walker took on the job of storing away the bodies of the jungle dogs.

"I doubt they will be used for much. They are fairly weak. But brother will not allow anything to be wasted. His respect for nature in all forms is inspirational." Alice just nodded softly. That was something she also liked about Walker. He didn't leave behind the monsters defeated to be fed on by other monsters. It was always better to gather them and make the most with even a little something.

"The harpoon arrows were too much for monsters like this. We should save them for a time when they are needed for something dangerous. Maybe we should make needle arrows. They are basically just metal spikes with a backing so they can be fired from a bow." Gil had seen needle arrows before they were very inaccurate but if used by the right person and the right bow, they were still a very dangerous force to be reckoned with.

"I understand, please allow me to learn to make them and to use them." The dragonkin was very interested in a new arrow to use already. It had been a single small patrolling journey but he had been fully taken by the desire to learn more about the bow and arrow. To be able to live up to the full skills that he had. Sitting in the shadows and using daggers his entire life had become dull in comparison to the bow. He was basically a child in a candy shop with the promise that he could buy whatever he wanted.

"Let's wrap this up!" Walker got everyone's attention back on the task at hand. He was quick in gathering the defeated jungle dogs. He couldn't hear anymore around and he was certain that it was nearly time for them all to return. He was even more certain that the trio of his family he had just found had ignored their own group and gone off alone. The evidence of this was in the fact that they were still out even though they had technically left earlier than them.

"The ship is waiting for us and we have to be there when the other ships get back to the first one. If we miss it then we will miss the link up." The ship would be stopping near each other to anchor. This would be when they set up bridges between them to meet on one ship and begin the final plan for the journey across the ocean or even more, to ensure that everyone has decent supplies on their ship.
