Now aware of Millicia's circumstances, Caim and his companions head toward the capital of the Garnet Empire. Or at least, that was their objective-until they find their way blocked by a landslide and are forced to stay in the post town of Jarro. After picking up work as adventurers, they eventually make the drastic decision to head into the monster-infested forest of the lycaons, enlisting the help of a black rabbit beastfolk girl to guide them. At first, everything goes smoothly-so smoothly, in fact, that Caim is able to enjoy some nighttime fun. However, when they reach the inner part of the forest, they encounter an unexpectedly powerful foe!
