Chapter 166.1
Desert Battle Part 1
At the Adventurers’ Guild, there were a few dwarves left alive.
The guild had been reluctant to allow the attack because only low-ranked adventurers remained, but it was the guild’s staff who had remained, and most of the low-ranked adventurers had already fled.
The reason the staff did not flee was partly due to a sense of kinship, but it was also because Jesha and Zilgan had managed to keep the guild together. They said that even if the Adventurers’ Guild were to disappear, they would remain as the Hoglos Trading Company to protect the town.
Even in a town like this, where there was no order, some people lived with pride. They have their reasons for fighting, so I left the Adventurers’ Guild to fulfill my own purpose.
“It’s burning…”
Fires were rising from several places in the town, and I could tell from the smoke rising from the distance that there were quite a few Dark Elves in the mix. Probably not more than a hundred or two hundred, if the Rizan Group was included.
Merchants and residents were running for their lives. But some of the residents were also fighting back against the attackers with weapons such as machetes and hammers.
“Gyah!”
One of the Rizan Group who was fighting the residents dropped his weapon after being slashed in the arm by my Pendulum.
