Chapter 1459 1459. Values

"Gil, take down that ground squirrel up ahead. It will make a good snack for when we stop to rest later." Gil was the best one to take down the ground squirrel.

The ground squirrels were monsters that tunneled very fast in to the ground. They were known to eat at the roots of plants making them a natural enemy to farmers. However, they were considered a very tasty monster to eat if someone was fast enough to catch them.

"Don't blink or you will miss it," Gil smirked as he drew and fired his arrow at the ground squirrel. Walker had spotted it some distance away so Gil didn't have to worry about the ground squirrel running away. It was beaten in a single shot without any struggle.

"Midnight, when we stop I will have you start the fire." Walker wanted to ensure that everyone had a task. They wouldn't rest long since they were able to travel faster nowadays.

"If I remember right, we should see a village on the horizon. The healers that went with Alice shared their map with me." Su showed Walker the copy and pointed out the pearl grape farm.

? "That's good, we can check on them. If one group of escaped demons made it a day or two away from them then there may be more by now." Walker was sure that they would make it to the village by night fall. They had been pushing themselves to move fairly fast and had not seen any monsters about other than the odd horned rabbit or now ground squirrel.

"Walker, let's stop now. It will be better to recover if we end up awake all night helping there." Remey stopped them which was a little unusual. She was normally all about pushing forward.

"That's not the normal you, what's wrong? Are you feeling well?" Onyx was the first to ask. He felt that Remey and he had bonded a lot in the lava lands so he wanted to ensure that she was safe.

"Well…we are going to war. It's not something small. I just want to be ready. It's not every day that we try and take over lands to free an oppressed people. You know?" As much as they had all thought about it and wanted to do what was right, it was hard to wrap their heads around.

They were speaking about freeing people, yes, but that also meant they were pushing for war. The opposite of what they wanted. War was not the way to grow peace. However, this was what the party was currently involved in. they couldn't even lie and say that they wouldn't be involved. They were key people within Genesis and their decisions made large waves.

"Not everything will be perfect. This is the right thing to do. We will do it the best we can." Walker stopped and pulled some wood from his storage. He had already committed to saving the demons and would not turn back. He had his own beliefs and he would live up to them.

Midnight silently moved next to him to begin lighting the wood Walker took out. The remainder of their hour break to eat was silent while they all thought about their reasons for wanting to free another race from oppression. Their reasons for bringing the races together. It was a sobering moment in the middle of a complicated situation.

"Let's get on the move." Remey nearly pushed everyone along. She had a big burst of energy since they had stopped to eat. It was clear that the time to reflect on their actions was important for her.

"I feel you might just want to try and steal away the pearl grapes. Don't think I didn't see you trying to get them in your tea." Su smirked. She too had sliced the pearl grapes and added them to a fruit tea. It was a nice sweetness that made the tea brighter.

"If that's a side effect of stopping in their village I will accept that burden." Remey's jokes a little whole Midnight ran to catch up with her ahead. The two seemed to be taking the chance to get to the fields ahead sooner.

While they walked, the group saw that some of the further fields had a few more weeds. They had grapes growing but they needed a little more attention. "Alice, this is the same village, right?" Alice nodded. She had been so silent that it was hard to remember she had been walking with them. However, she had been seemingly chatting with Onyx the entire time since he didn't need to speak out loud like everyone else.

"I would say we will be helping here first." Gil saw the large fire in the middle of the village. It was clearly to make larger amounts of food. The only reason that could be was that there were more people there than there should be.

"And a group of healers beat us here. They moved pretty fast on their carriage." Waker spotted the familiar clothing and movements of healers. "We can move a little faster." Walker broke in to a soft jog. He wanted to see what was going on.

"Well, that is a familiar face. Alice, right? Come to help us out again?" Alice smiled and nodded a few times.

"You are Mis? Alice and her healers told us about you. We are heading toward the border. Alice needs to rest her voice but she is more than just a singer. We will help you where we can. Walker will use healing magic too." Su took the lead. She started right to work while Mis walked up to speak with Walker.

"So, healing magic and a popular person. I saw how the other healers became much busier when all of you got here. Welcome to the village." Mis went right to work. She was directing people here and there. Multiple soldiers and a few demons had been made comfortable in the center tent made for the injured.
