Looking at the monster's strange appearance, Stein felt trepidation in his heart.
At first glance, the creature looked like a horse, but upon closer inspection, one could see that its mane was made up entirely of slender, tubular worms.
Therefore, even though the monster seemed non-threatening, Stein didn't dare to mount it, and even a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes as he thought about summoning the Tings Hound to drain the creature dry.
But just then, the Mist Box moved on its own, nudging Stein forward, as if signaling him to ride the creature.
With this action from the Mist Box, Stein didn't dare to act rashly, realizing that the monster was summoned by the Mist Box, so he extinguished the murderous intent in his heart and, after much hesitation, finally mounted it.
What he didn't know was that, in fact, the Mist Box had just saved his life.
