Summary

 * With family matters now settled, the Crimson Vow is now looking for a new request at the Hunters' Guild when Mile finds an interesting one to hunt a Wyvern for 30 gold. Laylia tries to dissuade the Crimson Vow but they accept the "red-mark" request anyways.
 * Five days later, the Crimson Vow arrive in the regional capital of Helmont and decide to stop by the local Hunters' Guild to gather more information. The guildmaster provided the Crimson Vow with additional information about the request before the Crimson Vow decide to head to an inn to create a plan. The next day they left the inn and headed for a certain village to enact their plan.
 * Once at the village, the Crimson Vow stopped by the village's eatery to gather more information. The following morning a single cow as taken away from the village and tied to a tree to lure the wyvern. When the wyvern arrived, it was carrying a log in order to distract the Crimson Vow while it took the cow. In order to get into a spell's range, Mile decides to throw the others so that can attack the wyvern in the air.
 * The wyvern is taken out when an unconscious Pauline crashes into the wyvern and knocks it out. Mile ties up the wyvern with carbon nanotube threads to prevent the wyvern and as she calls out to a youth that was nearby to ask for help transporting the wyvern, a mysterious man shows up. The man, later called Byrnclift, explains how the wyvern he calls Lobreth is his friend that he wants to save. Byrnclift distracts the Crimson Vow long enough to set Lobreth free however both of them are quickly captured.
 * The Crimson Vow then returned to the village with their prisoners in tow. A messenger was sent out and the evening of the following day a transport team of Hunters arrived to escort the prisoners. The truth about how Byrnclift was a court magician who was attempting to train a wyvern, Lobreth, to not attack people. With Lobreth handed over to the transport team, the request has been completed and the Crimson Vow leave towards Helmont before the transport team does.
