Novel Full Chapter 1066: Resting In The Druid Guild
—–
(Elayne’s POV)
It was a very long day, but it was finally coming to an end.
After our rapid escapade from the Wizard Tower after slaying a dozen Demonic Wizards, uncovering the truth, and bringing as much evidence as we possibly could, we teleported into the Druid Guild and rested for half an hour, just trying to calm down and process everything that happened while drinking herbal tea and eating cookies I already had pre-made.
Granny Austucia was there for us, helping us get better from all the… Well, the shock we felt. Even after everything we’ve lived, we always need a bit of time to process when stuff this crazy just happens. Maybe in the moment, the adrenaline or whatnot triggers and we can act quickly.
But once we cool down, it just a rush of emotions, most of them are guilt for the things I did, killing so many people, even if monsters, it felt bad… I needed some time to process that, to calm down.
“So that’s how it was, huh? You were sent by that damned King and the Queen to do such a dangerous thing! Why did you even agree to this?” sighed Granny Austucia. “Well, I am both relieved and terrified that everything we suspected was true and that the cultists and the wizard guild were indeed one and the same, but…”
“I know how you might feel, granny, don’t worry,” I smiled. “We did this because we wanted to find out too. This is not for the Kingdom’s safety; we did this because the cultists are an enemy of the world. If we can’t stop them before it’s too late, not only would the Kingdom be threatened, but the entire world too.
This also would include the continent and Lady Verdant, so I believe this also concerns you Druids.”
“Hah…” Austucia sighed. “You’re not wrong there, young lady. I suppose… I suppose this is also a responsibility, to take down those foes, that threaten everything we’ve grown to love and appreciate… So now that you’ve finally found who was behind the mask, what’s next?”
“We’ll go report this to the King and the Queen. It’s already night right now, but we called David and he’s already coming here with a carriage to pick us up,” I said. “Thank you for helping us get a bit better, granny Austucia, it’s really appreciated.”
“Oh my, it’s alright, dear,” she sighed, as I hugged her tightly again, I liked that she smelled like wet dirt and plants. “Have safe travels. Also, you know where to come if you need to talk, alright? The other druids also would like to know you better. Have you considered visiting the Realm again?”
“I have! I think I might go once I got more free time, I’m sorry…” I said. “But right now, we’re pretty busy.”
“Oh it’s alright, don’t you worry about it,” Granny Austucia said. “More importantly, drink the rest of your tea and be on your merry way, I am sure the King and the Queen are worried about you two, right?”
“I suppose they might be a bit worried, yeah,” I nodded. “But I am more worried about what those wizards might do now… Is everyone doing alright?”
“Yeah, we’re fine,” Mark nodded. “Just still a bit tired, but alright.”
“The kid’s still sleeping,” Rita pointed at Tomas, who was sleeping like nothing had ever happened to him before.
“What will happen to him now, Elayne?” wondered Lily.
“I think the safest option until he wakes up is to leave him inside a ceiling, they will probably seal his Mana using special restraining items,” I explained. “His demon powers are already well sealed by now.”
“That’s good I suppose, he was still a member, even if blackmailed,” Rita nodded. “Anyways, is David here yet or what?”
“Yes, he should be here by now… Ah, there he is,” I was looking at the world map, the icon of a golden carriage slowly appeared close to us. “Let’s go then!”
After saying our last goodbyes to Granny, we walked inside the carriage and made our way to the castle. In the way, David explained us that my daughter and Angelina’s combined party had already come back with interesting news.
The two groups had combined together to go investigate the walls, and they came back with good results, finding three cultists that had infiltrated the guards there, however, they failed to capture any of them alive, but this confirmed they had infiltrated in the guards themselves.
“So that’s what happened…” I nodded. “Well, our little adventure on the wizard tower wasn’t easy either, we’ll explain it once we get there…”
“I’m just glad you were able to come back safely, everyone,” said David. “I was honestly quite worried about your safety. But it seems the wizards weren’t the cultists at the end, as you’ve come back alright.”
“Err, well, you’ll learn once we tell the King and the Queen…” I sighed.
The quest had yet to be completed, which means I had to report this to the ruling authorities to complete the quest. However, there were still a few system notifications, mostly from all the levels I gained. We did slay a lot of bad guys.
