That's a high-level boss! Look at that health compared to mine!? What is it doing here? Did I just run straight to the boss monster and collapse? It feels like I surrendered my new life and offered myself on a silver platter!

A mission? No. A quest.

His heart was still pounding from the jaws of death earlier, as the existence of the translucent screen in front of him somewhat alleviated the tension.

Does this mean I can gain quests depending on my encounters? Neat! That would mean it would be easy for me to level up soon once I get the hang of how to use this body. Maybe I'll become a guardian wolf of the forest one day!

As Ash had temporarily forgotten about his near-death experience and thought about the future possibilities, Lucy, who was carrying him, darted her eyes around and stopped on a stone lying on a patch of soil just a few meters away from them.

While taking note of its location, she redirected her gaze at the beast, making sure she wouldn't be exposing her back. With each slow and gentle step, she was getting closer and closer while not prompting the beast to attack.

Ash sensed her movement and remembered the predicament they were in.

He snapped out of his reverie and exclaimed inwardly, Uhm, what are you doing!? We only need to get away to complete the quest. We can just outrun it by purposely swerving around the trees!

Ash knew that she couldn't understand him, but he hoped that she would at least follow the easiest way out since that's what the quest asked.

When he turned his head around, however, he saw Lucy's headstrong gaze, and with the steady rhythm of her heart, she was staring intently in front of her.

Ash followed her gaze, which led straight to the horrifying beast, missing the translucent screen before him.

She... She can not see it?

He quickly read the bottom portion of the quest window and finally understood something.

I will have a hard time if she dies. Does this mean that not only this quest was meant for me, but she also doesn't seem to have one of her own, or at least I can't see it from my perspective like she can't see mine? She doesn't have an interface.

If she does, then maybe her quest was to kill it.

Ash reined in his thoughts as he tried to close the quest window. Since he didn't want to prompt the beast to attack them by doing any extra movements other than what Lucy was currently doing, he didn't raise his paw but only used his thoughts.

After the translucent window disappeared, he could see an exclamation notification on the bottom right of his point of view. It wasn't too big or small. When he bobbed up and down from breathing, it was still stuck in that position of his perspective.
