Six candidates simultaneously rush toward Zich. In an instant, the fog within the Blackwater Swamp seems to have been pushed open a bit by some kind of invisible force.
The originally gray white mist layer resting on the water's surface rolls back toward the surroundings, causing the position where Zich, the supply box, Iron, and Slimy were located to briefly be exposed in everyone's line of sight.
Someone rushed from the left shallow water area, while another circled around from behind a half fallen dead tree. The Velhari candidate then pressed forward from the front, the bone blade in his hand drawing a cold light.
It was clear they planned to take advantage of Zich having just finished the field monster battle. His condition was noticeably poor, and they intended to force him away from beside the supply box in one decisive move.
The corners of Zich's lips curved upward ever so slightly.
