"Remey, duck!" Gil shouted in warning for Remey to lower her head. They had managed to bump in to a wild boar while on their trip. Remey had managed to keep it in check but it was stubborn and refused to run off.
The arrow let free by Gil was nothing special. It was a basic arrow that he carried for when it would be needed. Although his aim was precise as usual. The arrow went straight to the eye of the wolf boar and it fell like a ton of bricks to the ground.
"That small communication can be the difference between hitting your ally and hitting the enemy. Remember that the small time used for that will save and protect lives." The two archers that Gil had with him were the quiet boy that had watched the others to fight and a very lucky elf who had managed to show off enough skill to warrant some extra teaching.
"As Gil said, listen to those that bring you out to gather and find herbs. If you ignore them they will not be responsible for the results that follow." Remey had found an herbalist and a young alchemist to come with her as well.
The herbalist she had found was true to the phrase, a diamond in the rough. The girl had once been a forgotten demon thought to be nothing. Even when she was with Lust in the water elf castle she was left in the dungeons ignored. Within the short time of being in Genesis, she had somehow managed to increase growth in a single field of fire affinity herbs by nearly double.
The alchemist with Remey was an elf from the forest elf city. He was slightly arrogant but had every right to be. He had taught himself alchemy and created his own formulas to better the basic healing potion. The potion took longer but had better results. The outside the box thinking was foreshadowing to a brilliant future within the alchemy guild.
"So, what herbs did you say might grow around here? We have dinner and then some now so we might want to make this our last stop." Since Walker, Su, and Midnight had left, Gil and Remey had been out with their four students. They had managed to spend an entire day just going over safe traveling practices which would help the four greatly.
"They are just some porcupine mushrooms. They are spiny but great for the elderly and their brittle bones. Exactly what should be added for soup." Remey and her two underlings had large bags on their backs for collecting these herbs. They were nearly packed full.
"I understand why we would need a guard when we go out. How would we escape if we were alone?" The demon girl carefully pulled up the spiny mushrooms while asking the question.
"Run. Or trick them. Both work." Remey wasn't particular. Survival was about whatever worked and if running or tricking a monster worked then it was fine to do so.
"So we could avoid the monster if we are weaker, right?" The quiet archer spoke up and looked at Gil carefully for the answer.

"You can run and avoid, yes. But if you leave behind your client then don't go back to the guild. It's unacceptable. You should move them to safety. If they insist against your advice then notify them that you will end your quest there and return. That's the best way to get them to listen." This was a common tactic used for dangerous situations. Many adventurers had needed to do so to avoid potential death.
"Understood. Putting themselves at risk and putting all of us at risk are very different things." The quiet boy fell back in to his normal silence but was clearly thinking this through. All four had heard what Gil said. It made the herbalist and the alchemist think very hard since they had not considered that they would be stopped from pursuing important herbs due to dangers, even with guards.
"Now, don't base things on me. I have the ability to fight and perform alchemy. If you are just a plain old alchemist your chances of winning a battle are lower. But not zero. Some alchemists and herbalists learn to use their knowledge to defend themselves. Just like this." Remey pulled a very small vial from her waist and tossed it in to an open space just outside the trees of the forest.
When the small vial shattered on the ground a small explosion occurred causing a puff of black smoke. "That potion is called a stunning [potion. It makes a flash of fire then smoke to cause coughing and blinding effects. That can allow someone to escape. For an herbalist, you can use poisonous herbs to your benefit. Some gives off fragrances that confuse and require antidotes. Just because you are not a combat system does not mean you can not fight." Thai lesson seemed to make their eyes open wide. Gil and Remey had not gone in to such lesson just yet. This would give the herbalist and alchemist a head start when it came to others of their age.
"Does that mean we could use our skills in tandem? We could fire potion like that attached to arrow if we work with herbalists and alchemists." The two archers under Gil had the same question at the same time.
"That is exactly the lesson I wanted you to learn. Just because you are protecting someone doesn't mean that they will be unable to help in the travels. I won't say to force them but having them act is better than standing and doing nothing." This would go a long way for the two archers in protection and escort quests. Overall the two could say that they had guided their students well. "Alright, let's aim ourselves back home. We will stop and make a meal halfway back."
