บท 242: Beast Tide

In the eastern part of the Southern Federation, lay a small human settlement bordering the Murky Mountains. This location barely had any magical beasts in their vicinity, close to none.

All the magical beasts had already been taken care of by Magi in the past. This allowed the human settlement of Pivet to take root and flourish. It started as a village, but over the years, it gradually evolved into a town.

The sun was about to set and the sky was dyed a shade of orange. Pivet started to come alive as gas lamps were lit up one by one. The streets of this peaceful town were bustling with action.

Townspeople could be seen going about their evening routines. The sound of laughter and conversations filled the air.
