"Oh great. There's more! Look's like I'm going to have to teach all of ya a lesson!"

The hunter with a fire aptitude that I saw earlier in the mercenary guild is out here in the desert, most likely looking to get his hands on another Firestone to sell.

I walk closer to see him turn to me with a snide grin.

His slicked-back dark hair glimmers in the sunlight and muscles budge from his tight black shirt. He's taller than me by a few centimeters.

This hunter may look strong, but all 4 of us out-level him by a large amount... He has no idea what he's getting himself into.

The man scoffs, rudely pushing Abby to the side and puffing out his chest to walk over, making steady eye contact and beginning to ignite his right hand on fire.

"Aghh it's you, from the guild! I remember you. Ya know what? I'll beat all of you so bad you'll never show your faces in town again, how would ya like-"

Before he can finish his sentence, the fire user stops in place and bites his bottom lip.

"H-Hey, what the-"

The rocky sand around his ankles begins to twist and mold up his legs, making him unable to step any closer to me.

I grin, as I see the angry Earth Magic wielder with bright green hair standing behind him. She has a stern expression across her face.

The rock she's controlling slides up the man's legs and starts to cover his torso as well. His expression turns grim and sweat falls from his forehead as he bursts into flames while trying to escape.

Abby walks over to the wide-eyed hunter, standing in front of the now half-petrified body of rock.

The man yells out again, with a shakier, but still confident tone.

"What is all this? You're an element wielder? You-"

He pauses, gulps, then rolls his eyes while the corner of his lips begin to curl upwards.

"You all must be from the Association, that's it. Right? Oh, you're in for it now!"

He squirms, trying to break free, but the stone keeps rising up his body. It's now covering half of his torso.

Abby now stands in front of the man, looking him straight in the face.

"I don't like being pushed around. What was that you said earlier? You were... going to teach us a lesson?"

She smirks, stopping the rising stone just before his neckline.

He lets out an audible sigh of relief but also looks pale in the face.

Abby steps forward.

"Come on, at least start with your name. Who are you? What are you doing farming these dungeons without even trying to clear the breaks? The villages around here are clearly suffering from your actions."

He gulps.

"Hey... It's Issac. This... is just how it is around here. I didn't start the breaks, I'm just taking advantage of an opportunity given to me. N- No harm done."

He stutters at the last line, looking up in the air as Abby summons a thin spear of rock in her right hand.

"Also, what was that you said about the Association? How'd you know we were from outside the walls?"

He smirks, then makes a facial expression like he's about to spit.

Abby doesn't flinch for a second and kicks his left leg at the knee.
