"So... you trynna join us or what?" After Azeroth gave Laff his body back, silence drowned the atmosphere. Adena, who couldn't take it anymore, seized the dungeon boss up and down and asked.
"Hmm? I wouldn't mind doing so. Now that I actually came out, I want to explore this world a bit before I return to heaven." Azeroth thought a bit and replied.
The group didn't know what heaven Azeroth was talking about but instead of asking, they just looked at each other. Laff, who was slightly terrified of the boss who took control over his body and traumatized him for life, was staring daggers at Azeroth.
"Don't worry, he won't harm us. It will also be a nice addition." Palkus suggested.
"Well, I don't mind." Allan, who had been sharing glances with Lorea, looked at Azeroth and agreed.
"I was scared for a second there." After the tension calmed down, Tuskina, who had been nervous ever since Laff started acting strange, sighed in relief.
"Yea... let's move already." The grumpy loli dwarf tapped her hammer on the ground and said.
"Ah, haha, I forgot about that. Let's go." Allan, hearing Adena's words, finally remembered that they were on a mission and took the lead once again.
Lorea and the little dwarf got closer to the party leader and the trio started murmuring amongst themselves.
Palkus was approached by Azeroth and then Laff, who wanted answers, came closer to them.
The Tusk siblings looked at each other and then silently walked behind the group.
"It's confirmed, y'all. Palkus has something to do with the celestial of chaos; if I heard right, then he's probably his first blessed one. Damn me if I expected that." Lorea was the first to talk.
"Right~ Why does that matter to us? If he didn't say anything, then he has his reasons; we should just mind our business." Adena rolled her eyes.
"Adena is right. We shouldn't bother so much; at least, until he actually says it." Allan agreed.
"Hmm? you can sense it?" Allan heard Azeroth's words and turned to look.
Lorea's job was to scout forward and gain more information they could use at night to pinpoint the location of the nightwatcher more accurately.
"Sure, I do. How can I not be able to locate those of my... own race?" Azeroth's face displayed a mix of sadness and regret.
He was a fallen angel, a being that went from being of the holiest race who could live in heaven to an entity that was on the same level as the biggest of sinners.
"How accurate?" Adena looked at Azeroth and asked.
"As accurate as possible." Azeroth let go of his feelings and focused back.
"Yeah, it's hiding within a cave... One big of a cave." Palkus, who used his spell to locate the nightwatcher, said, surprising the group.
The nightwatchers were creatures of the night, so aside from that duration of time, they hid beneath the ground or in large caves.
"That's amazing, Palkus! I didn't know you also had amazing scouting skills." Tuskina, who was behind the group with her brother, was surprised.
"It's nothing." Palkus just smiled while looking at her.
"It seems like we'll finish this mission much faster than previously expected." Allan went into deep thought as he said.
"Hey, witch, come back." Adena called.
"Why did you call me back?" Lorea asked when she returned.
"We already have all the information we need regarding the nightwatcher's location."
