Chapter 458 Cap 456: Leaving The Illusory Forest(Chapter Preview)
After leaving the World Tree temple I went to the place where the dungeon people’s temporary home was.
What I had to do there was something easy, I opened the Dungeon gate there and let them haul whatever was left inside and let people in to settle into their new homes.
I also tried to get into the crowd a few times, but I was found each time, all I wanted to do was take a peek at the city.
As I was a small person, I tried to go into the crowd, but I was unsuccessful.
I tried to get into a box that would be taken to the Dungeon, but it has been found.
I tried to use my skills to hide in the shadows of someone who was about to enter, but I was found too.
I even tried to run to the gate at full speed, but I also failed.
Nix, Ivan, Freya, and Ragnar kept stopping me every time, they said it was to not spoil the surprise later on.
All I could see was the store line that formed from people heading back into the Dungeon, everyone looked happy as if they had been on a trip so far, but they could finally go back to their homes.
As everyone seemed intent on keeping me from entering my own dungeon, all I could do was accept to wait until the next morning while I was frustrated with the whole situation.
After it was all over and everyone was inside the Dungeon, including the Elves who decided to follow us, then I close the Dungeon gate and go back to the Tree where we’ve been living for the last few months.
On the way, I think about our current means of transport.
The carriage we used to come here was rebuilt with better materials this time, in addition, the boat was also completely redone, in fact, it was already a totally different boat, only its magic command core was kept.
This boat was built in collaboration between the people of Elf Village and the people of Dungeon, I had already seen the boat, or using a better name, I had already seen the ship.
That was a big ship, but it didn’t bother me, Elves were told I like simple things and don’t like to draw unnecessary attention.
When I arrived I tried to sleep, but there were four people who tried to keep me awake all night but lost consciousness in the middle of the night.
After such an invigorating exercise I jump to the top of the Tree again, but this time it wasn’t to see the night sky like the previous times.
I stare at the village, a landscape that is so beautiful and incredible that it could only have been from a fantasy book.
This could be my last view of this fantastic place being bathed in moonlight, so I stayed there until dawn enjoying the view.
———–
The next day when, after watching the sunrise, I go in to have something to eat with everyone before we leave.
When I got to the kitchen I see Ragnar in his Human form staring at Freya who was preparing the food by herself today.
He doesn’t even notice my presence, but I’ve gotten used to it, when it comes to food, Ragnar forgets everything else, it’s been that way for the last few months.
When the smell of food started to spread the others started to join us, we were all talking while we waited for the food.
Nix appeared talking to Karina, they seemed to be speaking in some language that I don’t understand, besides each word they speak strangely carried a little of their Auras.
I found that strange, but the strangest thing was seeing them using this strange language to converse in a casual way, I also noticed that Nix looked very happy while talking.
Later Nix explained to me that they were talking in the language of Dragons, it seems that this was something nostalgic for Nix, the two seem to have formed a friendship before I knew it.
After everyone had eaten everything Freya made, go get ready to leave, we’re leaving this morning as agreed.
As we had already transported everything important to the Dungeon, so we just need to leave our daily necessities and some clothes, when everyone was ready we go to the carriage that has an even bigger space inside.
On the way to the village gate, yours were still empty as it was very early in the morning, we left without attracting attention until we reached the gate.
When we arrived at the gate Roman was there alone waiting for us, I stopped the carriage and got out to talk to him.
“No goodbyes?” (Roman)
“We already did it yesterday, it wouldn’t make sense to do it twice.” (I)
“Just take care of my daughter as you promised and have a safe journey to the Dark Continent.” (Roman)
“That’s all I want…” (me)
Sigh
“But I have to admit that this would be difficult, I can no longer deny that my luck won’t let this trip be normal.” (I)
“So I think you better be careful with the sea, there are many monsters, pirates, and other races there.” (Roman)
“I think I can handle monsters and pirates.” (I)
“Don’t underestimate the oceans, there are many inaccessible Dungeons at the bottom of the sea where waves of monsters happen with a certain frequency, because of that there are many strong monsters hiding in the water.” (Roman) 𝘦.𝘰𝘳𝑔
“Anyone who wants to travel to another continent must be strong enough for this kind of journey or choose their mode of transport wisely.” (Roman)
“That means the pirates who sail this kind of ocean are not the weaklings you may have seen before.” (Roman)
“I’ll take that into consideration, thanks for the warning.” (I)
“From here we’ll head to the northernmost port of the Grimo Kingdom, we’ll need almost two months of travel to get there.” (I)
“I wish you a good trip.” (Roman)
“Goodbye, Roman.” (I)
I get into the carriage and we start moving forward, Sophia who was driving the carriage waves to her father in farewell.
As soon as we pass the gate I don’t look back, with that we start a new journey, I just hope I don’t find any problems in this nation until I get to the port and leave this continent.
