Light Novel Volume 01
Marca seeking to ease her mother's burden placed a request via the Mercenary Guild to find someone who would escort her into the forest to collect herbs. Arc seeing the notice in Luvierte had accepted it and chaperoned the girl into the forest. While picking through the foliage, Arc and Marca came across a Giant Basilisk. The knight though saved her from being eaten and killed it. Marca having been injured during the commotion was then healed by Arc much to her awe. Later Arc asked Marca to keep the monster to herself as it would have caused her mother and the village unnecessary worry. On the way back they encountered the Fanged Boar which was skulking near the borders of the village. Arc slayed it as he was told by Marca it fur and meat were valuable.

Sometime later, Marca would go to Luvierte to sell the kobumi but would bot get a fair price from the Merchant's Guild. It was where she met Lahki who offered to buy the herbs at a generous price. Though suspicious of the offer, the young girl accepted it.
