บท 67: Pursuit

Hounds.

A special team that is rumored to be specialized in hunting those who escaped from the army or their duties.

It was said that they were all soldiers who were proficient in controlling the specially trained "Earth Hounds."

A special type of mana beast that has been tamed and is now used. Depending on its strength, a single earth hound can track a person from 10 kilometers away.

'As expected. They are already here.'

I didn't waste any time. I pushed myself to my feet. My body had recovered to a certain extent as well, and my mana reserves were almost fully recovered.

I would have fully recovered unless not for the fact that I spent some mana mindlessly trying to learn a new thing, but that wouldn't change much.

But I couldn't afford to stay here any longer. The hounds were specialists in tracking; their senses were heightened, and they could easily pick up my trail if I stayed in one place for too long.
