Chapter 305: Visitors from my Hometown? (1/2)

“Is that so?” I solemnly nodded my head and flashed Sinmosa a smile: “That’s great then!”

“It should us thanking you instead.”

With the Hellhound family settled, all that was left was Nola. I turned to the salamander in question and asked, fully intending to strike while the iron was hot: “Do you have any other plans, Nola?”

“I’m only here in order to help you reach your destination. Since you’ve done so, it’s time for me to leave as well.” She firmly stated as such, her mind clearly made up long ago. “I can roughly sense the presence of a lava lake nearby, approximately 300 Li away. I’ll enter the lake and rejoin my clan there. If you all plan to set up residence here, feel free to visit that lake for sustenance.”

“So there’s a lake 300 Li away, huh. That’s perfect. With a lava lake nearby, our food problem is basically solved.”

While 300 Li might have sounded like an awfully long walk, it wasn’t so for No.3, Big 4 or the Hellhounds. Given their speed, they could probably make a round trip in two to three hours which honestly wasn’t all that long.

“Nola, are you really leaving us?”

Sinmosa seemed eager to have her remain yet Nola paid no attention to that at all and merely shook her head: “That’s right. I can’t stand being too far away from a lava lake. For us salamanders, there’s nothing worse than being denied a nice soak in a lava lake.”

Since she’ve made it so clear, we really couldn’t say much anymore. In light of that, we merely made the offer to see her off and procure some food at the same time.

As stated before, Big 4 would be left behind to guard Mother Black Ant as she set up her hive. Before leaving, I handed over one of the Black Stones of Authority to him so as to facilitate his management of the golems, just in case someone wanted to invade the palace while we were gone.

Naturally, I wasn’t saying that someone would even try to do so, but it never hurt to be safe on a basic level.

“Master, please hurry back.” As he stood there at the northern city gate, the expression he had on was one of an abandoned kitty. “Big 4 will be here waiting for your return…”

“Don’t worry, with me around, the Master will be perfectly fine.” No.3 proudly smacked his chest and even raised his head slightly like a victor would. “Big 4, you just stay here and be a good bodyguard for Mother Black Ant. Hopefully we can see the first few ants being born once we return.”

“…” Big 4’s teeth gnashing was practically audible from a mile away as he glared at No.3. The Devil in question however, paid no attention to that at all. He was still drunk in the delight of having received his master’s favor.

With regards to this little rivalry between the two of them, I had zero intention of interfering at all.
