The next day, Group E finally entered the moor in the afternoon, their arrival marked by the fading storm and muddy terrain. Ayumu, the commanding officer for the mission, gave precise orders.
"Spread out across the moor," Ayumu called out to the group. "Check for any dangerous Venpators in the area before Groups F, G, and H enter through the mountains. I want constant reports on any unusual activity."
With that, the team dispersed across the vast, swampy landscape, their boots sinking into the soft, wet ground as they ventured into distant parts of the moor. Jack and Shinobu had been assigned to work together, moving in synchronization as they scoured the area for any signs of the predatory creatures that lurked in the shadows.
As the hours passed, they encountered and eliminated several Venpators-large, fearsome beasts with razor-sharp claws and scales that gleamed under the afternoon sun. The battles were fierce and exhausting, leaving both men tired and covered in dirt and sweat.

They eventually found a large rock where they could rest. Jack wiped the sweat from his forehead, his breathing heavy, while Shinobu leaned against the rock, his sword resting on his lap.
"Hell of a day," Shinobu muttered, exhaling deeply.
Jack nodded, looking out across the field, but something suddenly caught his eye-movement in the distance. His gaze sharpened as he saw Mayumi nearby, focused on her surroundings. She had been assigned to patrol a different part of the moor, but now she was closer to their position, moving with the same grace and determination she always did.
Just as Jack was about to relax, a large Venpator, bigger than the others they had faced, came barreling out of the shadows. Its eyes locked on Mayumi, and it charged toward her with frightening speed, its fangs bared and ready to strike.
Shinobu tensed, ready to jump to her aid, but before he could move, Jack grabbed his arm, pulling him back.
"Wait," Jack said, his voice calm but firm. "She's a brave girl. She'll fight it herself. If she can't handle it, we'll help. But we can't make her weak by stepping in too early."
Shinobu hesitated, glancing from Jack to Mayumi, clearly torn between his instincts and Jack's words. After a moment, he nodded. "Alright," he agreed, though his hand still hovered near his sword's hilt, just in case.
They watched closely as the Venpator lunged toward Mayumi, its claws slashing through the air. For a moment, it seemed like the beast would overpower her, but Mayumi moved with the swiftness of a trained warrior. She dodged its attack gracefully, her movements precise and calculated.
With a quick turn, she drew her weapon and struck, her blade cutting through the Venpator's tough scales. The creature roared in pain, thrashing wildly, but Mayumi didn't falter. She pressed the attack, delivering blow after blow until the beast finally collapsed, defeated.
