"So, we are meeting them here." Anna looked around. They were in the middle of a grass field. She had a hard time looking around because the grass was tall.

Though, they were surrounded by a small hill. It wouldn't be hard for Damian to find them if he ever reached this place. They had even set up a tent and a campfire to give the signal.

"Yeah. We have to prepare as well. Because of the danger that awaits us, we can't bring any horses, so we have to go on foot. It will increase the travel time drastically."

"Since we only have less than six months, we are going to take one and a half months for the trip alone and use the rest to discuss everything with the hermit. Is that alright?" Noel asked, confirming their schedule.

"Yes." Anna nodded without hesitation. Dimitri remained by their side openly. Considering this was a mission in which Dimitri would be directly involved, he didn't hide himself when it wasn't needed.

"Still, we've been waiting for one day. I wonder if they are going to come…" Anna sighed. 'They' in her mouth were Damian and her father's disciple. She added, "Who would come first?"

Anna's doubts were answered a few hours later.

When they had just finished their lunch, they felt a presence coming toward them. It moved fast to the point where the trio were being alerted.

However, Anna soon smiled and said, "To think you would arrive first!"

"Oh! I rushed to this place as soon as I saw your message. What are you thinking, making me cover a trip that was supposed to last for two weeks in just one week? I had to use my power to reach this place." A female's voice echoed from behind the grass.
