    <span style="font-weight:400">"Wind de!" "me spear!" Alfia and Scarlet fired off their magic at the bulls, hitting them dead! Burned and shredded to a crisp.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Excellent work, everyone," Keithmented, his voice filled with relief. Before he could utter another word, a sudden warning cut through the air, "Arlo, watch out!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Eh?" A dark shadow zipped out of the grasses, prepared to strike at Arlo! However, someone else caught it.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"What the?! There''s another bull!" Jack quickly moved in front of Arlo, blocking the blow. He was surprised. They were so focused on the two in front that they couldn''t hear someing from the side.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Hah!" Melor raised his hammer, smacking the bull away from the wings. But that was when more came out!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"!" Herrick''s ears twitched, "Keith, there''s a lot more here!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Why is there so many?!" The entire group was surrounded by a group of bulls! Keith shook his head, "Herrick, Melor, go protect the south and east. Gabriel, Faelyn, you deal with the north while I cover the west. The rest behind us!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Understood!" The formation quickly changed as they started to fight. This was a simple circle formation. Keith and the others protect the rest while Alfia and the supports fire their magic.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"They probably got drawn in by the sound of our fighting." From how loud they fought the two, it attracted a herd.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Indeed." As a bull was about to get close to Keith, ck chains wrapped around them, holding them there. It tried to move, but it only made the chains tighter.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Hmpf!" Keith sliced the monster down. The fighting continued for some time before the monsters were down.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Herrick, Leona, do you hear any monsters around us?" The two had sharp ears.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"No, there shouldn''t be any monsters around us." Herrick shook his head. He didn''t hear anything around.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Good job, everyone." Keith sighed deeply, "Let''s collect the corpses and get out of here." Who knows when they woulde again. Herrick and the others were on it as they collected the corpses. As they continued onward,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Scarlet, you need to aim your magic more alongside Melor''s nk." Keith had been watching how Scarlet and Leona operated.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Understood." Scarlet nodded.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"You don''t need to be anxious. You would get used to it when you fight with the group some more." Stuff like that would be fixed once they fight in a group. The two only recently joined.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Also, that was dark magic, right?" Scarlet was the one who cast those ck chains.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm." One of the elements Scarlet was great at using was dark magic. Dark and light magic users were quite rare.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm. I figured I should use it instead of fire magic." When she fired her fire magic, she noticed how the grass burned. Fire magic in such a ce was a death trap.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"However, I''m not as adept as I am with my fire magic. I could only use it to bind them." Her primary element was still fire.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"That''s good enough. We need someone who could bind monsters to the ground." This was good. Scarlet had enough magic power to rival Carolyn''s firepower. But with dark magic, she provided more utility.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Keith. These are cookable, right?!" Herrick and Melor''s eyes glimmered excitedly as they held the bulls up.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Yep. I think the bull meat is simr to the rush bull. We can cook itter to try." Keith smiled.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Woohoo! Collect all of them!" Herrick and Melor went double time with collecting them.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"..." These two. How are they not tired? The two did the most against the others.


    <span style="font-weight:400">This group is doing good. Keith was satisfied with everyone''s teamwork. Despite not working together as an entire group, things were running smoothly. Especially so with the wings. Two unexpected incidents happened to them. Yet, it was smooth. Leona was surprisingly a great nk protector. Despite her forward nature, she used a bow. Her calm and precise arrows took out the bull''s eyes.


    <span style="font-weight:400">And she also had a good grasp of what Herrick wanted to do. Her coordination made it easier for the beastman to move freely. Is this the power of love? The thought made it interesting.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Also, are you sure you don''t want to wear a robe?" Keith turned to Scarlet. Alfia and Sarah wore some robes, but Scarlet didn''t. Those robes apparently increase their magic power. Yet, she wore some light clothing and armor.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I prefer something like that. Also, I''m a close-range mage. I''m able to fight monsters closer." A robe would only get in her way.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I see." When Keith heard that, he knew he would need to change the formation quite a bit to make it work.


    <span style="font-weight:400">


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Alright, let''s keep going." Keith pped his hands together. It was time for them to head in there and get more things done.
