Shin who had dashed off earlier to find Aella, had traveled quite a lot of distance and was far away from his clan.
Yes, he didn't hesitate to use his full speed and with no time had already arrived near the place where the witch used to live. Since he had the function which enabled him to ward off the monsters and beasts, he didn't have much to worry about.
Though, there were a few factors that he had to think about.
'Man, I am unable to smell her scent...'
'Just what is happening?'
'Why is this happening?'
While it is true that animals, especially dogs, and related species and types, have an extraordinary sense of smell, it doesn't work always.
There are times when they too get some sort of disease just because their body is pushed to a limit and at the moment a similar thing was happening to Shin.
Though, more than a disease, it would be appropriate to say that it was some sort of drawback for overexerting himself.
