Everyone from the Team ARES logged back into the game and immediately did their 'Daily Routine', while Pedro informed the NPCs about the said arrangements. Fortunately, the NPCs did not have any problem with Pedro's plan. Thus, after they did their daily routine, they immediately left for the Tarala Kingdom.

”Are you sure that you don't need my help on handling the monsters, human?” Faunia chuckled Aldo, Loren, and Roval were barely even able to catch their breath as they advance to the Tarala Kingdom. Faunia added, saying, ”We're not even halfway to our destination and these three are even barely able to run anymore.”

Pedro simply smirked in response and said, ”Why don't you carry them instead and leave the monsters to us? Everyone else is enjoying the hunt. Wouldn't it be nice to let them loose some steam from time to time?”

At this moment, before Faunia could say another word, Roval glanced to Faunia and said, ”I… am good! I… just need to slow… down a little! I… can manage!”

”So… do… I!” Aldo added before he exhaled heavily, gripped his sword tightly, and charged towards his next target.

Faunia could only glance towards Loren in response with one of her brows up as if she was asking Loren, 'What about you, human?'.

Loren simply shook her head in response, saying no, whilst panting heavily as if she was about to reach her limit. That said, seeing that Aldo and Roval were doing their best to catch up, she could only bite her lips and took a deep breath before she followed everyone—full of determination.

Fortunately, thanks to Aldo and Roval, she only encountered a handful of monsters since the start. It was just her stamina that was low compared to everyone else. So, Loren had difficulty traveling with all of her armors equipped.

Well… Pedro was leading the three of them, together with Faunia, by taking a straight path to the Tarala Kingdom but at a slower pace. Thus, most of the monsters were actually taken care of by Pedro, while Aldo and Roval simply cleaned the monsters that went past through Pedro's range.

As for Sabrina, Arvedar, Mathew, Talia, and Lony… They took their own 'longer' paths to increase the difficulty of their 'training' while being able to familiarize themselves with battles involving a huge number of enemies with a huge variation of unpredictable attacks.

Truth be told, Pedro assumed that Lony would be amongst Aldo, Roval, and Loren when he was on his human form. But for some reason, the players with the transformation forms tend to have an abnormal amount of stamina compared to those who did not have transformation forms.

Pedro did not know the exact explanation for this fact but, he knew that it was the 'factor' that was certainly at play—regarding the difference of stamina amongst the players.

Knowing that fact, Pedro was even tempted to give Aldo, Roval, and Loren their own transformation skills. However, he opted not to do so because he wanted them—specifically Loren and Aldo, to be used to mental fatigues and such negative effects due to exhaustion. After all, the war that they won in the east was proof that long-drawn battles or wars are inevitable to happen in the game.

It was best to prepare them at this moment so that they would gain a lot more experience—and, consequently, solutions to resist or ease the negative effects caused by exhaustion. Besides… If they kept getting exhausted like that, they would eventually become used to such situations to the point that their bodies even adapted on their own.

Soon, they all arrived at the ever-busy Adventurer's Guild Branch on the Tarala Kingdom. Pedro and everyone else were mostly covered with monsters' blood, thus, they naturally caught the attention of a lot of players.

Add up their eye-catching full armor set… The players could only gaze at them both in amazement and out of fear as they walked past by everyone else.

They could not help but whisper amongst each other, discussing the identity of the fully armored men. In fact, most of the other players even assumed that they were NPCs related to the Adventurer's Guild. Well... It does not matter to Pedro and everyone else, whether they would be mistaken for an NPC or not.

”Hey, Hey, Elder Bro! How many monsters did you kill along the way?” Talia asked Mathew whilst barely being able to hide the smirk on her face.

Mathew simply shook his head in response and said, ”I didn't count them! I was focused on trying several attack combos, so, counting my kills did not enter my mind.”

”Booo!” Talia said whilst giving her elder bro a thumbs down. ”You're no fun, elder bro!”
