Chapter 51: (1)
Phooh
Outside, its outside! Look, its Panielun!
Uncle Jeff, who was leading the way and trudging through the bushes, shouted loudly.
As he looked ahead, he saw that Panielun, the collapsed Great Canyon, was indeed visible, just as Uncle Jeff had said.
It took longer than I thought to get out.
He thought two days would be enough, but it took a whopping four days to get there.
Well, We wouldnt have gotten lost if we had followed the same path.
The problem was that they decided to find a new path instead of sticking to the one they came through.
Moving along the original path would have taken at least three days. However, thinking that a straight path would take only two days, they recklessly set off and ended up going in the wrong direction, forcing them to backtrack.
But at least I managed to save the uncles and bring them out.
Ha If only we hadnt lost our way.
The response from Uncle Max, who realized that he was alive, was quite amusing. In contrast, Uncle Jeff had a somewhat indifferent reaction.
Uncle Jeff, arent you happy that we made it outside?
Why wouldnt I be? Its just that I dont feel it properly. That we survived and came out of the monster habitat.
Well
They went further than just the entrance and managed to come out alive.
In the monster habitat, they lost numerous comrades to monsters and were even chased by thousands of Harpies at times.
Eeek!
Ah, Elf-orc.
Just as he was lost in thought, the Elf-orc, hanging on his back like a burden, let out a cry.
Uncle Jeff looked at the creature with a meaningful gaze.
Technically, we should have killed it
Eek? Eeek!
Perhaps because they had been together for four days, the Elf-orc reacted as if it understood Uncle Jeffs words, screaming in terror.
Its not a monster that attacks others, and it hasnt caused any harm to us either
Eek?
What do you think about letting it go? Kaiyan.
Letting it go. Its a statement that deviates slightly from his goal of exterminating all monsters.
Can we really consider the Elf-orc a monster just because it looks like an Orc?
Kaiyan asked himself a question.
Thanks to the Elf-orc, they managed to escape from the monster habitat easily. Moreover, they were peculiar monsters that didnt engage in carnivorous behavior. They werent monsters that attacked others, as Uncle Jeff had said.
But still, should he categorize the Elf-orc as a monster?
There are more humans who are closer to monsters than the Elf-orc.
After saving them, there were the soldiers who became greedy and demanded more, Tarien who was blinded by ambition and constantly sought greater specialization, and the senior knight who was willing to sacrifice others without hesitation to save Tarien.
Set it free. It has helped us get this far.
Eeek! Crk-crk!
In response to his words, the Elf-orc showed an intense reaction, releasing a hesitant laughter.
Its almost as if it understands the common language.
He drew his sword and cut the vines that were binding its body.
Eeek!
Go back to where you lived. Never come out here again.
Eek? Cheek!
Whether it was expressing gratitude or not, the Elf-orc slightly tilted its head like a human before leaving. It could be his imagination, though.
Lets go back to Gam-an. But first, lets stop by Panielun.
Ugh! We have to go through this tiresome journey again.
Back at Panielun Fortress, or rather the collapsed fortress, the reconstruction work was in full swing.
Apart from the green stains, which were probably remnants of burning the monster corpses, there was no trace of the monsters. The soldiers of the Allied Forces were busy clearing the debris of the collapsed fortress.
Clearing this up will take considerable time, not just the reconstruction.
While the Great Canyon itself hadnt collapsed, the part of the fortress that had crumbled meant that clearing it was a task equivalent to moving a small mountain.
Thats something Panielun Force will take care of. We just need to head back to Gami-an with the support unit.
Uncle Max casually mentioned that the collapse of the fortress wasnt a big deal.
Indeed, there was no need to worry about the Panielun Allied Forces, who hadnt even offered a small help in rescuing Tarien.
If they had helped a little, more soldiers could have come out alive.
But its too late to think about that now.
It would be more effective to pray that the escaped soldiers wouldnt be caught by pursuers.
While lost in thought, Kaiyan and Uncle Max approached a soldier who was clearing rocks.
Excuse me.
Yes? What can I do for you?
Is the Panielun battle over?
Yes? Of course, it ended a few days ago Who are you?
The soldier looked suspiciously at Uncle Max, with a puzzled expression.
Dont look at me like that. Im part of the support unit from Gami-an, but I have some personal matters.
The support unit? Ah, from Gami-an The war ended after the Harpy Queen died.
Is that really true? So, the war ended earlier than the scheduled time?
Yes. Its quite unusual, and Im still quite surprised.
The war ended earlier than the planned date. Its truly remarkable since the monster waves have never ended within the designated period.
Hmm So, do you happen to know where the support unit from Gami-an is now?
Yes? Im not sure why youre asking me that But I heard they returned to Gami-an this morning. Im not sure about the exact details.
Oh no Anyway, thank you.
After thanking the soldier, Kaiyan moved to a secluded place with Uncle Max.
In that case, well have to walk all the way to Gami-an, right?
Yes, that seems to be the case. I didnt expect this.
Both Uncle Max and Uncle Jeffs faces darkened at the thought of having to go back to Gami-an.
If we walk, it will take at least 10 days What should we do?
It was impossible to catch up with the support unit traveling by carriage at this point, and walking would consume more than 10 days.
Is there no other way Kaiyan, cant you think of anything?
Uncle Jeff suddenly looked at Kaiyan with a burdened gaze.
Im not a strategist. How am I supposed to come up with a good solution just because he asks?
