Ryan wasn't by any means, someone clumsy. Some dexterity was required to handle a bow, after all. Still, he was a man that lost a good part of his main arm. So, the hope that he would carry a baby steadily and use a crossbow with a single hand was a bit too much.
"Oh, well…" Ryan sighed. "At least it is easier to aim with magic."
Flame arrow reached a point where Ryan could easily kill velociraptors with a single shot, as long as he hit their head. Even in the darkness of the night, he exterminated the creatures. However, Arthur's cry didn't stop.

It didn't take long for new monsters to appear. If anything, Arthur had an excellent skill to lure the monsters. Although that was convenient for Ryan in some ways, he didn't want to let him cry for long. He was probably scared, after all. If that was the case, Ryan might be able to calm him down, but if he was hungry…
"Don't cry, Arthur. Don't cry," Ryan tried to whisper in his ears to calm him down while he was moving around, trying to emulate a baby crib. "Be good, be good, and I will give you some tasty mana potions… I wonder if potions can substitute milk…"
Now that Ryan thought about it, he didn't feel hungry or thirsty after drinking the mana potions. He was getting hungry as well, but considering that he didn't eat anything since noon, it was highly probable that potions could work as a meal… at least for a while. However, even if that was enough for him, the same logic doesn't apply to a newborn baby.
Suddenly, Ryan had another idea. He recalled the feeling that he had when recovery healed his body and recovered his energy. Since recovery had increased, the feeling had grown weaker, but now had become more constant. In any case, feeling his energy been restored was quite relaxed. Arthur wasn't wounded, but he probably would feel relaxed if Ryan uses Heal on him.
"Let's give it a shot," Ryan said.
Although Ryan had to conserve his mana as much as possible since he couldn't use his crossbow, he didn't hesitate in doing that. Surprisingly enough, Arthur's cry decreased in volume quite fast, and after just five seconds, he was sleeping again.
"This should be enough for the time being," Ryan sighed. "… I will come later and give you a proper burial."
Ryan couldn't help but wonder he could dig a grave with a single hand, but that was a problem for later. Before other monsters could come or worse, before Arthur wakes up, he had to find this camp on the North. The dungeon of the velociraptors was in that direction, so he won't lose anything by following that path.
