26 Return (1/2)

-Outside the Forest Dungeon-

All of us tried our best to hide because we all know that there's no way we can defeat that monster. Those 500 people were crushed, burned or eaten to death, I'm pretty sure! We didn't make a single move. The monster who just came out from inside the dungeon decided to fly and leave the area.

Thank goodness. Maybe it's full and doesn't want to eat us anymore. We're just happy that we are safe, too bad for those greedy people who went inside first. After it had left the area, we regrouped and planned what to do next.

”That monster is a Chimera! It's one of the legendary monsters that no one has beaten yet. I heard that when the game just got released, they had already seen the Chimera but they said it was just a rumor. Today, I have the evidence that the chimera is really real!” A not really important guard is talking to himself.

”So, what's the plan?” The brat must know what to do next because we came here and we only lost a lot of people and gain nothing... Well, I gain some few.

”Nothing, we just need to go back to the city and make a report. Don't worry you will be rewarded for your troubles,” She answered like she's out of energy. I can say that she's not really happy with what happened.

Well, we didn't get anything but just information about some legendary monster we were not aware of.

”Get ready to move out guys. We will leave as soon as you're ready,” She ordered.

My party looked really exhausted after all that happened to us. We were packing the loot from earlier and it will be harder to travel with all of it. We will get rich after selling the armors and weapons we got from those members of the Ravens Guild. More money!

From 723, now we're just less than 200 are left now. We traveled again back to the city. The path was peaceful again. Even with just 200 people, monsters are still afraid to get near us. The adventure was fun. At least we didn't end up like those who died from that monster and got killed like the Ravens.

”Hey Scy, it was fun! We're alive too. That monster was really scary, though. I thought I was going to die there you know. Haha,” Elou started to talk to me. I know traveling back to the city will be boring and we need to at least talk to lessen the lifelessness.

”Yeah, that was really unexpected. Thanks to Lili we were alive. ” I smiled.

”It was... really embarrassing,” Wow she replied. She's really shy, and now she's blushing.

”Well, that was cool. My Sis protected us, which is supposed to be my work for being the older sister. I'm happy you were so dependable when we fought with the Ravens. Come here and hug your big Sis,” Akko's showing her affection towards her sister, they're so close and cute.

”And I thought we would be eating different kinds of animal heads tonight. Haha,” Elou just made a joke about the Chimera.

”EEEEEEEEEEW!” The girls showed their disgusted face and laughed.

We chit-chatted for hours. It was really fun. Getting scared, laughing and traveling with your friends are the best.

-Order of Light North Road-

We didn't realize it but we're almost near the city. Time really flies fast when you're having fun. Also, it's almost getting dark. We traveled for four hours. Earlier we were faster because most of us were excited but now, we were very disappointed in what happened. Many people died but we gained nothing, technically ”they” is the best word to use because at least my party got some loot from the Ravens.

We arrived in the city and it sure is lively as usual.

”Fellow Adventurers! Your rewards will be given later. Get back here around eight pm,” The brat announced with a face of tiredness.

They already switch the lights on, as usual, it is magnificent. Looking at some places relieves our stress. As soon as we entered, our first destination is the Tavern! A fresh beverage and good food are the best to clear our frustrations.
