A week had passed since Ratatoskr joined Thirteen's group.
He had been getting stronger and stronger through constant battles against the Goblins and by devouring their Beast Cores.
Thirteen had prevented Sherry from absorbing any cores for the time being and simply told her that he would look for a Rank 5 Core for her to absorb.
The young lady had once been told by her parents that she should prioritize quality instead of quantity when absorbing the Beast Cores of Monsters in her First Wandering.
It was an open secret that the higher the Rank of the Beast Core a Wanderer absorbed before they broke through the next Rank, the stronger they would become.
Of course, the Wanderers who were sent to Solterra for the first time didn't have the luxury to choose which kind of Beast Core they would absorb at the early stages of their journey.
