We chose to leave our hilly camping ground, which had since yesterday, become dyed red with blood.
We took a detour to visit , the village I had left the protection of to several of my subordinates during the beginning of my travels.
After concluding our business there, we rushed with great speed to return to the forest of our birth.
Although we had been rushing at the beginning, roughly through the middle we had slowed our pace slightly to collect new materials to produce magical items.
As a consequence, we arrived at the settlement roughly when the sun was setting.
Suddenly, I noticed that Kanami-chan, Redhead, and the rest of the girls had gone speechless.
While although not as drastic, I also noticed that Avenger was also surprised.
“What? What’s the matter? Why do all of you have such astonished expressio-!”
Well... If you’d seen what I’m about to tell you, you would also be awed by it.
Our little mine had turned into a fortress!
Oh! This is amazing!
We’d love to inspect it to see what improvements have been built into our little old mine to transform it into such a respectable structure. Because today, we are throwing a banquet!
As a celebration of our returning home, I’ve brought out various meats and Elven liquor to be enjoyed by everyone.
People who have recently joined our settlement also take part in the merriment.
Booze was poured everywhere!
The banquet had long since turned into a party.
I enjoyed the party greatly, but really, nothing could top the feeling of savoring Elven liquor in the Hot Springs.
This is the best!
