Woof!

...Find something, Repede?

Woof woof!

Agh...

Those guys are Hunting Blades...

What the hell happened?

We were done in by a huge monster...
Agh... If only the Chief were here...

Nan's all alone...
Please...

Nan!!

H-hey, whaddaya doin' chargin' in by yerself...

I-I'll go too...!

It's finally Karol's time to
shine. Don't you think so?

His time to shine...?

*Pant* *pant*

Gheeeee!

Agh!

Keeeeshaaah!

Take this!
Dragon Upper!

Nan, are you okay?

Karol!
Why are you...?

Eh? What? What
happened here?

Nan, explain this.

Ah...yes sir. When you and the others
went in to hunt the monsters, a huge
monster suddenly appeared...

And that monster beat everyone?

...Yes. But Karol...
Karol defeated the monster.

Uh, but I didn't do it alone...

Karol, you did this...?

...

Ah...uhh...

You helped us out.
You have my thanks.

Uh... Eh...?

It's not every day that the Chief thanks someone.
Anyway, you have my thanks as well.

Uh, no... I mean, you don't have to...

...This is for you.

Huh...?
What's this?

It's a piece of clothing I made from the fangs
and tusks of a monster that I slew recently.

It had the most amazing
golden tusks.

Its tusks were
made of gold?

I thought it wouldn't look right on
anyone who wasn't strong enough,
but I think it'll suit you just fine.

Huh...?
You mean...

Well, I'm going now...
The next time I see you...

...I'm going to be
stronger, too!

O-okay...!

Looks like she dropped something.

Then I'll get stronger, too...
