Day 4,708

We received a mission request from the Hunter’s Guild today.

Our target this time is a common enemy for us Slayers: a Muulwark. It has been many months since I last hunted one of its kind—a juvenile—and I welcome the challenge of slaying another one. This particular Muulwark was said to be an adult, so it is safe to assume that it is enormous.

Because of this, those not on caretaking duties would participate, even Ranaul. We know this is no ordinary mission; additional information mentioned that the Muulwark has eluded every hunting group for the past two months, so the guild decided to bring in more people. Our team would join up with another force, and we would flush out this creature from the forest ten miles east of the city.

Doing this mission with a large group would reduce the payment we should receive, but the guild is paying ten times the usual amount, so we have nothing to worry about. Still, the fact that they are willing to spend that much indicates just how dangerous this monster is.

Our mission begins in five days, so we stocked up on supplies today—potions, food, and other things we Slayers needed. We have a kill-on-sight directive this time, and we plan to follow it to the letter.
