Ulric

"Well, since the superiors said that we will have some days off, what do you guys think about having some fun?" Anton proposed to the rest of the team. 

He seemed to be as carefree as ever. There was a sympathetic smile on his face. 

Anyone who looked at him would feel, even for a moment, that things were ok. It really looked like they were walking into a playground instead of a place they would need to defend with their lives, in a slightly cruel test to see whether they were apt to withstand the pressure of being a Beast Hunter. 

Because of this quirk of his, which may or may not be intentional, most of the newcomers were quite relaxed. Some of them were searching around the village for a place where they could leave their belongings and sleep later, even though the superiors clearly said for them to be always prepared for the worst.
