"Let's retrieve it quickly before the body cools too much. The core will be easier to extract while the energy is still fresh."
Seraphina crossed her arms and leaned slightly on her staff.
"Honestly," she said in a slightly mocking tone, "I can't believe we even needed to fight this thing. It's just a feral-rank beast. The villagers were terrified of this?" She gave a soft, incredulous laugh.
"They couldn't even handle a creature this weak? Pathetic."
Alina shot her a look. "Seraphina, not everyone trains at an academy like Arcadia," she said.
"Ordinary villagers don't have weapons or mana skills. Even a low-ranked beast can wipe out an unarmed village."
Jin nodded in agreement.
"Exactly. You saw how fast it moved before we took it down. If we weren't careful, even we could've been injured."
Seraphina gave a small shrug, unconcerned.
