Dear diary, my name is Elizabeth Guuman. I work at Mr. and Mrs. Fluers Shop. They buy and sell monster parts. This entry is about a strange man who came into the store a few days ago.

  He came in looking awfully nervous, which must have been why he was so quiet I suppose. He set down his bag and asked if we sold any rare or unique monster parts in exchange for a large amount of common monsters.

  I told him that we could do that but he would need to show what he was offering, from somewhere, I don't even know where or how but, he pulled out dozens of monster carcasses. I was shocked but due to the nature of the store, it wasn't the first time I'd seen such a strange thing.

  He gave us dozens of Horned rabbits and Elemental boars and requested, quite strangely mind you, A variety of organs from elemental beasts.

  He decided that he would exchange it for the Salamanders lungs.

  I stored the lungs inside a special container so as to not taint them with environmental mana.

  I asked if he would like to buy a monster encyclopedia for this area, he quickly and threw me a gold coin and! The books value was only a single silver at best!

  He left the store quickly and wandered off into the town, not knowing I had just made quite the profit for the store.

  The strange thing is later that week, I heard stories from the hunters of the town about how they heard of a man, breathing fire and eating animal bodies. He was targeting monster nests , leaving nothing behind but carnage.

  I am wondering to myself if that man was the same as the one who came into the store earlier this week as people who .
