She so wanted to punch the arrogance out of him, so badly. Not that was an option, like at all, she had a feeling it was either her own fault... or maybe a certain gruff man whom they recently met, the audacity. The point is, she was the one who walked in and so the blame had to go to herself, it was only fair that way, at least that's what she thought. Even then Rena couldn't pass up the bath, despite the water being used, the thought of Noboyuki's... uh uncovered body once touching the exact same water was not comforting. She thanked her luck that it was an isolated incidence, not even in her worse nightmares could Rena imagine what sort of rumors would've been born from all this.

The bath was anything but relaxing as she wanted, still she attempted to ignore the images floating in her mind, they're both adults meaning they were more than capable of moving on, Rena just couldn't ignore the initial shock that remained. Soon enough she was done and dressed, when she returned to their room it seemed that Noboyuki already gathered his equipment, plus he clearly ate the beef stew was probably cooled off by the time he gotten around to eating it. Rena donned her cloak, grabbed small a book that held all her field notes, and the map she prepared for the mission. In the dark it'll be harder to read any of it, with luck the moon would provide enough light anyway.

They couldn't waste anymore time, if they were unable to find and slay the beast that very night they wouldn't be able to try again for a full day, a day that she felt couldn't be spared. Noboyuki was ready to move out it looked like as he waited in the main hall, Rena had already placed the bath event towards the very back regions of her memory, they had a job to do they had to remain on task. She marched up to the man, bringing forth the level of authority that came naturally to her.

"If you're about done loitering about, we have to start the hunt right now. I don't need to tell how much of pain it'll be if the beast is not dead by dawn, we do not have to time to try again." Rena rolled out the map on a nearby table, pointing to it. "This is the nearby woods where the creature is commonly reported, hope I don't need to tell you that much. I tried to make it simple for you, these circles here are the search zones, we spend the appropriate amount of time before continuing onto the the next area, and so forth." 

Rena let out an exasperated sigh, "We're burning too much time, don't fall behind." With that the nightly hunt was on.
