"So, a herder named herder?" Remey was on edge about the lack of name the man had given them. She thought that there had to be something suspicious if he was just going by his jobs title.

"He probably just gets a lot of farmers that call him that instead of bothering to learn his name. It's the same with carpenters who build the fences or adventurers that come to exterminate pests." Gil had already gotten used to that. He had been called hunter along with his father when they had shared meet with neighbors.

"So it is a common greeting then? Interesting. Herder said that there was a sheep Shepard over there. Do you think it is the pone that you knew?" Su was curious if Gil had gotten lucky to bump in to a familiar face.

"Nope, he herds black sheep. He found an injured herd of six black sheep one day and that is how he got his system. No one knew where the sheep came from so he was allowed to keep them. Pretty weird day now that I think about it." The others agreed. It was strange that the man had been lucky to find an injured herd of sheep as a child and manage to unlock his shepherd system.

"That sounds extremely lucky. But it is a good thing he managed to find and resume the sheep. If he hadn't I am sure monsters or the elements would have defeated them." Walker was more concerned about the sheeps' lives.

"So do you think we should look for this shepherd and meet him? Or wait until we stop?" Remey wanted to make sure that she was headed in the right direction now that she was following the path of the herd of cows and sheep.

"We can wait until we stop. It would be better for everyone. I think they will want to keep an eye out for any dangers instead of talking to us." Walker had noticed the herder was moving around the edges of the herd to keep the cattle in line but also looking out at the plains around them. If he saw even a small bird fly by he head his head u and hand on a whip.

"Then walking we go. If we see anything we should deal with it though. That might help us a little later." Remey had the feeling that the party should take the lead with monsters. She knew that these kinds of actions could go a long way with people always on alert.

"I agree, if they are willing to share their company we should be nice enough to help them with protecting their livelihood." Su tapped her shields together slightly as she readied them. "So we should deal with that horned rabbit over there."

Su had seen the hod poking out from the grass as the rabbit hit. The horned rabbits had been hunted a lot in the recent months and were down to a low number again. This made them more apt to hide instead of rush out and attack someone. But that did not mean they would not attack when something passed.

"Who wants it?" Walker asked this because he knew it would not take all of them to defeat a single horned rabbit, especially now that they had leveled up so much.

"Leader, I actually want to show you the new skill I have learned. It is similar to shield bash, but it can use both of the shields I have along with the pints bottoms." Su surprised them all by volunteering.

"We will wait here, if you need help just let us know." Walker was unsure if the horned rabbit was one with paralyzing poison in its' horn or not. Just that fact made him still worry for Sus' safety.

"Watch me," Su said this and moved toward the horned rabbit in the grass. She walked like she was just going around patrolling the herd.

Herder was nearby and also saw the danger. But he had noticed the party pointing things our and then Su walk as if she was patrolling. He had already picked up on her plan and was watching intently. He was uncertain as to why the party had taken action but was glad to not need to use his own skills since he was sure they would encounter a few more monsters when night came.

The horned rabbit sprung from the grass as soon as Su had become near t it. She was prepared and used one shield to deflect it and the horn it pointed at her. She used her shield bash skill to stun and slam it to the ground.

She parted her two shields and raised them over her head. It was a strange stance but the stunned horned rabbit couldn't go anything about it. With a loud shout, she used all he forced and drove the pointed ends of the shields downwards.

There was a slight fluctuation of mana that Walker could feel came from Su. Walker knew she was using a skill and the shields were the focus. The pointed ends split right through the horned rabbit and it released a slight squeal and fell still. The horned rabbit had not stood a chance at all but Su had perfectly demonstrated the new skill she had been wanting to test.

"Leader, that was called shield claw. It uses my defensive power as attack power and as long as I have a sharp point or spike on a shield I can use it to attack." Su was standing tall explaining her skill as Walker stored away the horned rabbit.

"I have to say that the skill held a lot of force. Your defense is very high and having it act as attack is a little scary." Walker was very impressed that the skill had been powerful enough to completely split through the horned rabbit. He had a feeling that it could hurt a much stronger opponent as well.
