Als der frisch gebackene Monster Hunter Raiga von seinen Kameraden erfährt, dass ihre Hunter-Gang sich auflöst, versucht er sich zunächst auf eigene Faust als Jäger und widmet sich tagein, tagaus dem Training, um sein Heimatdorf zu beschützen, dessen Monster Hunter langsam in die Jahre kommen. Allerdings gerät er schon sehr bald in arge Bedrängnis...
Loved Kirin showing up in this volume (since it's the first elder dragon in the series) but Keres isn't in this volume AT ALL and he's my favourite character, so points off for that :(
There are a lot of groups in this volume that the action switches back and forth with but the main story has Keres missing and all the guild members out on patrol looking for him. Meanwhile, Raiga and Torche are behind with the wounded and Torche suggests they go to Raiga's village for a breather. Once there they take on a major quest to hunt a legendary monster. A bit all over the place but thoroughly enjoy.
