"Where are we headed?" Tim could see how Mila was trying to find any connection or source that would lead her to her next beast. They had been watching and observing their young lady who became easier to read once they continued to travel with her.

"Hold on." Mila wanted to test or try something if it would help her in any way to find any connection. They had all made it to the town of Pearlrest in Asiradda Kingdom which was the best town to start since they had entered a very foreign kingdom. Mila was trying to see if she could get any sort of contact in their current location. They were currently at the source of where water had flowed constantly. Putting her hand in, Mila could feel something as if it were mana that was flowing into her. Almost like it was trying to heal her in some way, like she had been injured and needed healing with the mana healing her from within.

[Who are you?] Hearing the voices reach her from the water, she smiled to know that there were beasts who were more willing to speak to her this time.

[There hasn't been someone like you in ages.] Another voice said out, allowing Mila to know that the last one was obviously the only one who had a gift like hers.

[Why have you come here?] They asked at the same time wanting a clear answer from her since there was no reason for her to just travel here.

Each and every voice that spoke to her were out of pure curiosity due to how rare it was to meet a person like her. "I'm Mila. I'm looking for one of my comrades here. Do you all perhaps know someone by the name Kate?" Mila spoke looking down to the water flowing down to the town with no beast that took form with the water.

[Kate?] One water beast did not know what she was talking about while the other started questioning.

[Is she talking about those ice beasts that's always hanging around here?] The other than mentioned since they rarely knew about any ice beast that remained in the Asirrada kingdom after so many years.

"Yes, I am." Mila spoke up, hoping to be able to help and find Kate sooner than she did with Skye. "Do you know where she is?" Mila felt happy inside that she did not want to waste any time, finding Kate was now her top priority that she sought the most.

[Hm, she's usually everywhere. We just don't know her main location.] The beast replied since they really did not know what went through the ice beast's mind.

Mila found herself once again upset and disappointed, but she couldn't blame them for not knowing since her beasts were hidden for a good reason. "Thank you. It's good enough that I know she is here. Thanks for the help." Mila then felt the flow of mana stop as she got up to think again about Kate's whereabouts.

Coughing just a little, blood was in her palm which Tim rushed over to see that the mana from the water source had gathered into her. "You cannot use too much mana or have too much. It's good that it's not as bad as before. If it was, then you would not be alive for now since the mana here is much stronger." Easing her mana source, he sighed seeing how Mila had been able to get into contact with the beasts this way, but she still needed more beasts to use up her large amount of mana that builds up quicker than most individuals. Even her family symbol was not enough to maintain her mana since she was born between a maid and a noble man. Tim had never seen such a case before, but he was not going to let it stop him from healing his young lady.

"We can only wait and try to find a beast. I don't know where we can start, but we can only wait." Mila rubbed her head and knew that they needed to wait for Kate's appearance or contact.

Walking down the streets, they were looking around for any materials that they may need when they leave Asirrada kingdom. Mila stood in the middle of them all since they still wanted to keep her safe and away from harm's way. "Mila, are you sure you're not feeling sick?" Sara was concerned since Mila had been spitting little ounces of blood out here and there for the past two years due to her unstable mana within her little body. "All of these years, your young body has never been able to handle the mana that flows within you. We are all worried about you." Sara looked at her young lady who she had raised since infant.
