Lila's skin problems started a few days ago. Grove and his new group of friends didn't prioritize chasing Lucian anymore; they were more interested in the new strength they got from the mana around them and couldn't stop using magic.
They ignored the spirit beast after noticing that the beast wasn't interested in fighting, and any attack they threw at the beast didn't work. Just by ignoring the beast, regardless of their fear, the beast stopped approaching them.
Lila had tried using healing magic to make the disturbing itch in her arms go away, but it didn't work. She had thought that the healer was talentless and only made her itching worse.
Like every other night since her abnormal itching started, she scratched her arms and went to sleep, only to scream loudly in fear the next morning when she woke up.
"The hell?" Grove said in a tired voice. He pushed the players who had left their sleeping space and rolled over to his during the night.
