Laura cocked her head curiously at Asura's reply, wondering could there really be someone so optimistic in the world? All this time, she never really saw much purpose to Huntsmanship other than an endless war against grimm until one eventually succumbed to them and died. They were nothing more than glorified pest contol, actually.

But Asura's words made her think. She said she found motivation to keep fighting in the people she saved. Could it be that simple? All she needed was a different perspective, to start enjoying the job and take satisfaction from it, instead of thinking of it as a chore.

It certainly seemed to work for Asura, maybe she could give it a try? Laura downed her glass of mild whiskey and ordered two more. One for herself, and the other as thanks to Asura for her impromptu pep talk.

Seeing Browning and Tanner approach, one villager, presumably the sentry ran to alert the others. There was a brief moment of chaos as the "villagers" on the trailers ran away to hide, some of them carrying bundles of stolen items and others wielding heavy tools.

The mayor walked briskly to intercept the two men and stop them from approaching the trailers, he was flanked on either side by a pair of burly male villagers. "Ah... fine evening lads. I was just sending some local mechanics to inspect your caravan and do some maintainance." he lied. "Everything's fine, run along, enjoy yourselves!" the man was visibly nervous and sweating profusely as he talked.
