Chapter 71: CELEBRATION!!
By the time Kael and his company reached the Great Storm Tree, it was already dark, and aside from the moon hanging above them, there wasn’t any other source of illumination.
But none of them really cared about it, as they were used to darkness and could see at night as if it were day.
Kael stared at the giant tree before him and said, "I’m too exhausted from this week-long trip, so we’ll start our work from tomorrow. You all should also rest today too."
His orders were met with sighs of relief, as everyone really needed some rest.
"But before that, we need to have a victory feast," Kael flashed a grin, spreading his arms and said, "We are all D-Rank and also have a Labyrinth under us. This is the official start of our Nation, so of course, we need some celebration."
Then, he pointed at Rias, who was silently standing at the side, and said, "And we also need to welcome a new member of our Nation. She’s the Guardian of our Nation."
"Yess!!" Jon lifted his paw and roared to the heavens. Even Seth joined in his joy and roared, which resounded in a large area around them.
Animals quickly went on alert and ran off, while the insects and bugs crawled back into the ground. The two mighty lions were terrifying in appearance, and their roars suited their humongous size.
Kiona wanted to scold her younger brothers for causing such a commotion, but let it go considering the situation. She just smiled and shook her head, thinking, ’Father, are you looking at them? They’re so happy.’
