"Again!! It's happening again!!!" Clara was about to exit the office when a slew of notifications showed up, this was the third time.

Ibis and Clara had taken to sitting in wait for developments. The second time twenty three zombies and seven skeletons were defeated. This was still too many all at once for a party of their tier.

Even more shocking was two hours later it was now happening again. "Thirty three zombies and twenty seven skeletons. What are they doing putting them all in a hole and blowing it up?" Clara felt defeated. She couldn't think of any logical reason or practice that would cause these sudden jumps.

"I'm glad we started writing this down, we are witnessing a record." Ibis had seen much in his life but this was the most monsters he had ever seen defeated by a party of this tier. If this was a gold tier entering the area for two months it would make sense.

"It's been almost ten full hours and these five have done something no one would have expected. I'm not sure even a seer would have seen this." Clara had let loose so many sighs during the past few hours since this had all started. " we'll need to prepare to receive whatever they bring back. I assume we will have to process a large amount." Clara looked at ibis knowing that their work hadn't even started yet.

"Spatial magic" these two words brought a whole other round of shock to the guild master. The party would most likely sell or have the guild sell the items and monster parts they acquired. This meant that they would need plenty of manpower to do it efficiently. This basically meant they needed to be prepared the same as when a raid party of over a hundred would return. Ibis shook his head and started pulling out paperwork.

...

Their potion was almost up but between their weak muscles and sweaty clothing, the party was done. They couldn't possibly muster any more energy to try and hunt last minute undead. The square was left full of ashes. If an unknowing person happened upon this sight they would believe that a massive bonfire had taken place.

During their first break, Walker had decided to leave the egg in the sun on the roof with Gil who could easily guard it while firing. This decision had proved to be the right one as Walker could feel additional warmth in the egg. Walker had decided to carry it on their walk back to bond a bit more and allow it the last of the day's light.

"I want to sssllleeeepppp" Remey groaned as she forced herself to stand yet again. She had pushed herself to collect as much as fast as possible this last round so she could rest longer.

"I second that, I would also like to eat and bathe." Su had begun struggling to hold her shield after the last round. She was not used to running around holding her shield and wearing her armor for hours while the others lured over the undead.

"Yup let's go back, if I have to draw my bow again my arm may fly with the arrow." Gil had realized just how important it was to train both arms to properly fire his bow. In the final round, he had begun using his non dominant hand to fire and realized his aim suffered. This was an important realization for him.

"Honestly I'm very happy we didn't see another of those undead golems. I can't believe I messed that up so bad. I'll be much more careful as we go the rest of this journey." Walker had wanted to apologize to everyone for a while but didn't want to throw off their momentum.

" don't beat yourself up, if I'd noticed a closed door I'd want to check it out too. We're literally exploring ruins it's part of the deal." Gil didn't hold any ill will. Not that any of them had the energy.

Once they had returned to their camping spot they'd made a warm fire. The night passed quickly however waking each other up for the night watch was definitely a challenge. Strangely the distant clattering of bones or zombie moans were rare after their hunting.

Upon morning walker noticed this to be the first time Remey slept in. She must have run herself a bit too hard yesterday. She was luring more than any of us and as the attacker moves much more. Walker was thinking an agility based item may help Remey with this problem in the future.

"I know we are supposed to rest but I think I'll practice firing my bow with my left hand today. I really wasn't happy with it yesterday." The thought of missing his target had haunted Gils dreams.

"That's a good idea, i think I'll follow your lead and work on some endurance wearing my armor and moving some rocks." Su also had some things she didn't feel like while they battled the largest being the fact that in the end holding her shield was hard. This was not acceptable to a defender whose shield could save a life.

Walker was thinking of what he should work on today " I should probably look in to all the items we picked up yesterday. We need to start planning on what to keep and what to try to sell." This was his job as party leader and could not slack off since the others were determined to improve.

Walker pulled up his inventory in his system and felt the pressure. "We really did pick up everything huh?" He looked to Gil and Su showed that they had many additional items for him to inspect. " I might as well jump in to it" with that walker had begun.

The current list held many things, some important and others were completely useless. Knowing that some things may have hidden uses walker would have to use his all around appraisal skill often.
