章 76: A Night With a Visitor.

Arad walked back into the woods, searching for more prey. {You got enough. Let's get back to the village.}

^Are you sure, Mom?^ Arad replied, ^The day is still long,^

{You can always hunt another day. Not straining yourself or the ecosystem is a skill that every dragon must learn at some point.}

^I see. Killing all those bison will get the predator on edge, scaring the other monsters. I will end up eating them to extinction if I keep hunting,^

{That's the point. Hunt as much as you can without causing trouble,} Mom smiled inside, {A good way to kill monsters without worrying about the ecosystem is through the guild's quest. They will think for us,}

Arad returned to the village, stretching his arms as he approached the tavern. Right outside, he found Jack sitting there. "Arad, want lunch? Or are you full?"

"Full, but I still eat more," The two walked in to eat.

Aella and Merida sat together, chatting in the back. Arad stared at them, confused, "What are they talking about?"
