There were a few seconds of silence in the underground room.

The rank 4 worm was in the middle of the room, warily watching the four humans in front of it.

Noah had his eyes on the beast, he was doing his best to recover from the previous injuries, expending the liquid "Breath" in his body to do so.

Daniel, Milo, and Troy alternated their gazes between the worm and the weapons on the ground, they seemed to be struggling internally about what to do next.

"What are you doing here?"

Daniel broke the silence to ask Noah a question.

"I am a hunter, I hunt. What about you all?"

"I have a mission from the academy. Why is it not attacking?"

"It's probably waiting for the whole pack to converge here instead of fighting when outnumbered. This beast is quite smart."

Noah didn't mind revealing some partial pieces of information.

'The less they think about it, the more they will consider it as a smart beast rather than one with a Bloodline inheritance.'
