"So a pack of Great Wolfdogs has appeared in the territory?"
After hearing the patrol knight's account of the attack, Aiven frowned and fell into thought.
According to Sutter, there were no packs of Great Wolfdogs in the Black Forest, so these Great Wolfdogs must have come from Mt. Coronet.
But under normal circumstances, Great Wolfdogs stopped migrating once they reached the Black Forest from Mt. Coronet.
The resources deep in the Black Forest were far more plentiful than those near its edge, while human territory was barren by comparison.
The Great Wolfdogs were strong enough to claim territory deep in the Black Forest. Once winter passed, they could return to resource-rich Mt. Coronet.

"Those Great Wolfdogs have already entered City of Ambition's territory. Everyone living in this region is in danger!"
"Especially you, Orange Fruit Village. You're very close to the Black Forest, and you're the only place along this route with abundant resources."
"Those Great Wolfdogs are sure to find their way here. We have to cover the villagers' retreat and get them to City of Ambition."

"Then we should try anyway. Maybe the Great Wolfdogs are only interested in the Berries in Orange Fruit Village," Sutter urged.
This time, Aiven stayed silent. He
