Separation

Things worked very, very well for over half of the path as an entire month went by. With Sharky at the front, the other aquatic demon beasts didn't try anything against the twins' group. As for those at the Transition Realm, only two other ones appeared, but Sharky easily convinced them that everything was under control. 

Of course, the reason they found so few demon beasts at the Transition Realm or above was because of the route Carion's father gave them. That truly helped a lot.

Rean and Sharky thought that it was because that was supposed to be the place with the highest concentration of aquatic demon beasts. On the other hand, Roan didn't believe that was the reason.
