Waiting

At the high point, Ban and the others looked down at the area where they camped earlier. 

Ban led them here as he wanted to observe the shaking sand from above. 

"What is it this time?" Delo asked with a frown. 

"They're probably Drought Worms, an X-Mortal Rank Beasts. They are scavenger-type Beasts and they suck up the fluids of their target until they become dry, hence the reason why they're called Drought Worms." Ban explained calmly. 

"Are they strong?" Belle asked. 

"No, but they could not be underestimated either. They are easy to kill but they also multiply a lot easier. When Adventurers encounter them, they usually just leave them alone as they don't proactively attack humans anyway." 

"I see, that's good!" Belle was relieved. 

"Then why do we still need to move here if they won't even attack us?" Delo asked, annoyed.
