“All right, I understand.” Jared began trekking at the foot of the mountain.
Without warning, a black figure leaped straight toward Jared from the bushes.
Just as he was going to strike, Zain shot a dagger toward the black figure, pinning it to a nearby tree.
It was then Jared realized that the black figure was a wolfdog-sized mole.
“I hate these moles the most, Mr. Chance. The entire Demon Beast Mountain is crawling with these creatures. Even though they aren't strong, they love to ambush people. Additionally, the beast cores these moles have are practically worthless, so very few people will ever want them. I hope we don't encounter a group of them because they're disgusting.” Zain's disdain and repulsion for those moles were apparent.
Jared smiled. It seems like rat-like creatures are hated no matter where they are.
The trio continued their journey. Suddenly, they heard the sounds of a battle nearby. Swiftly, they headed to the source of the noises.
Moments later, they discovered a few people were attacking a flaming wolf. The wolf was enveloped in scarlet flames and kept shooting fireballs.
The flaming wolf roughed up the attackers pretty badly, but they still managed to kill the creature and extract its beast core.
When Jared took a better look at the person extracting the beast's core, he was slightly taken aback because he recognized that guy. It was Kayden.
After Kayden put the beast core away, his expression shifted. “Who are you? Why are you hiding there? Come out!”
Clearly, he noticed the trio already.
Upon seeing that, the trio revealed themselves.
