Chapter 244: A Hunter’s World (3)
"Wait... is this for real?" Vesper asked. "We can leave for Nexaria?"
"Yes, I’m pretty confident," Adrian nodded. "The slaves are Nexarians. Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain their presence in the dungeon."
Although Lucina had advised him otherwise, Adrian told the girls about it. After all, it could be their only ticket back home, and just like Adrian missed Earth while living in Nexaria, he was sure the girls felt the same way after staying on Earth.
So far, they were ecstatic—well, A’Mila was. She clearly missed her tribal life and probably wanted to return as soon as possible. Vesper and Amelia seemed neutral to the news, perhaps because they didn’t have a place to return to.
The Church wanted Vesper dead and well, Amelia was probably wanted by the elves for her betrayal. Even though Adrian was the one to kill and dismember Rowan and Vincent, since Amelia was a part of the team, the elves most likely wouldn’t spare her either.
Sophia looked anxious while they made their decision. Now that she was back, she probably didn’t want to leave Earth and live the life she had dreamt of with Adrian by her side.
As for Seraphina, she hadn’t said a word since Adrian’s revelation. Unlike them, she seemed to have something to do on Earth, which was why she was weighing her options instead of making a decision.
"So you’re saying we can open the portal to Nexaria if we destroy the forest?" Seraphina finally asked.
"More or less," Adrian shrugged.
"But wouldn’t that mean you and Sophia won’t be able to return to Earth?"
Adrian looked at Sophia before taking a deep breath and replied, "Due to the nature of the dungeon, we can either leave for Nexaria or stay back on Earth. We can’t have it both ways, unlike the last time."
