The monsters' identity
The magic people, Rain knew, weren't particularly adept at handling unforeseen circumstances or adapting swiftly. However, their array of techniques and tricks made them formidable opponents, even in situations where they struggled to improvise.
With these considerations in mind, Rain resumed his departure from the camp, his thoughts in a whirl. He embarked on his journey at a brisk pace, the events of the morning lingering in his mind. He had regained some mana through the night. However, he refrained from frequently using Impulse due to the proximity of the nearby village.
As Rain traversed the path, his thoughts turned to the captain's summons. He speculated that the captain's directive might have stemmed from the limited manpower available, especially given the circumstances. There was also the lingering notion that the enemies could potentially be observing the camp, prompting the decision to send Rain on the mission.
