Chapter 323: Clean Up
323 – Clean Up
The top of the 『Starved Hunters』 is dead. Most of the units have been destroyed too, and the survivors are running away. The Lithovar village’s crisis should finally be over.
I watch as rain pelts the fires, gradually extinguishing them. It won’t be long until they’ve all been put out. I turn towards the village and let out a small sigh.
In the end… I have to leave again. I wonder how Aro will take it. When she hears I’m leaving, she’ll probably be angry and sad. It seems that she still has some lingering regret about the village. I don’t know what it is, but I doubt she’ll want to leave without resolving it. I’m going to have to say goodbye.
There’s no way I can properly explain to everyone in the village, and I get the feeling they’d try and hold me back if I tried… But I should at least make sure the miko understands.
I restore my gaze from the direction of the village, and the rarag wolf enters my field of view. It’s watching the fires go down through thinned eyes, but notices me looking at it and turns to face me.
『So you’re leaving this place, two-headed dragon?』
Ooh… I see, these guys can use [Telepathy] when they combine. Sorry about that, it seems I’ll have rampaged of my own accord, then left of my own accord.
『Had you not been here, they would surely have burnt this forest down. We would also have died.』
