Shang nodded. "Thanks."

"Just wait for a bit. My replacement should be here pretty soon. Aaaaaand, he's here!" the scout said with a smirk. "Punctual as always."

Shang looked around, but he couldn't see the other guy.

The scout saw Shang's confused expression and chuckled a bit. Then, he showed his wrist to Shang. Shang could see a small device attached to the scout's wrist. It looked almost like a wristwatch.

"It's this thing. It's been created by Mages, and it keeps us all informed. I just got informed that my shift ended. Let's go," the scout said as he gestured to the front.

Shang nodded.

Then, the guard shot forward, and Shang followed him. They weren't sprinting or running, but jogging comfortably, which was still very fast compared to normal humans.

While jogging, Shang kept looking at the Farm Line. "What are these dogs?" he asked.

"The Farm Dogs?" the scout asked. "They are there to deal with rogue beasts and Pest Cats. If they see any beast that isn't accompanied by a human, they will kill that beast."

Shang nodded. That made sense.

"Do these dogs have affinities?" he asked. After all, Shang had seen plenty of beasts with Elemental Affinities.

"Most of them are Wind or Earth," the scout answered. "The ones with Wind Affinities deal with Pest Cats and weaker beasts. If a powerful beast arrives, the dogs work together to bring it down. Basically any beast that comes here will be killed as long as it's below the Commander Stage."

Shang nodded. The Commander Stage was the Third Realm, which was the Realm the hedgehog had been in. If the hedgehog came here, it could probably kill every dog with one needle each.

As the two of them kept running, one of the dogs suddenly barreled towards them at a much faster speed.

Shang looked over nervously, but the scout only smiled at the dog.

The dog ran circles around them while they were still running with incredible speed, and the scout extended his hand.

The dog quickly stopped and let the scout scratch it behind the ear. Usually, a human wouldn't even reach such a high place, but the dog was lowering its head with happiness.

Shang only smiled. 'Well, some things don't change, even if we are in different worlds.'

After a bit, the dog ran away again to get back to its place of work.

"Don't try to do the same thing," the scout said. "The dogs know me, but they don't know you. They are used to killing, and it's dangerous to interact with them without supervision."

Shang nodded.
