"Keep moving forward, everyone! We're only about an hour away from reaching the capital!"
"Once we cross this mountain range, the capital city of the Windfall Kingdom will be clearly visible to everyone!"
An experienced hunter's loud roar resounded from the front, informing everyone that they were very close to the capital city and that they would arrive shortly.
"Did you hear that?! We will arrive in the capital city about an hour from now!!"
"Finally, I can see my wife and my beautiful, adorable daughter..."
"I can hardly hold back my excitement to see my girlfriend. It has been such a long time. I wonder how she is doing right now."
"She must be with some other man as we speak. I don't trust women!"
"Shut the fuck up, you bastard! Don't speak so negatively about the love of my life!!"
"Yeah, yeah, whatever... you will find out yourself once we arrive at the capital."
People were overjoyed inside their carriages, and their murmurs filled the air with excitement and anticipation. After all, they hadn't seen the faces of their precious family members or loved ones for a very long time.
Inside one of the luxurious carriages, Arthur was sitting with one of the Holy Knights, while other Holy Knights protected the carriage from the outside.
Turning his head toward Arthur, the Holy Knight asked him with a serious look on his face, "Holy Son, what are we supposed to do once we arrive at the capital? Are we going to stay in the kingdom for a few days, or are we departing tomorrow?"
"Spend the night in the capital?" The Holy Son looked at the Holy Knight with a fierce look on his face, as if he was going to kill him. "Don't joke with me... I don't want to spend a single moment in that filthy place. It's disgusting!"
The Holy Knight was shocked upon hearing this and looked at Arthur with disbelief on his face. Wouldn't he offend the King and the Crown Prince Daniel by doing this?
"B-But isn't it going to be quite disrespectful toward King Rochard?" the Holy Knight asked.
"So what? Does a mere king of such a backwater place deserve my respect?" Arthur suddenly frowned at the Holy Knight. "Is he even worthy of my respect? I don't mind what that old goat thinks of me. I don't care about bugs...!"
"As soon as we arrive at the capital, immediately prepare my royal carriage. We will depart for the empire immediately! I'm sick of this awful air of the Lionheart Empire. It stinks."
"As you wish, Holy Son..." The Holy Knight nodded with an awkward look on his face. He wasn't sure that this was the best decision for them.
'Sigh, I wonder how His Eminence will react to this after we return to the Holy Church... I hope the Holy Son has a solution to this problem, or else...' The Holy Knight's face tensed up under the helmet. He didn't want Arthur to lose his position as the Holy Son.
Meanwhile, inside Yuan's carriage, Yuan was enjoying himself by playing fun tricks on his wives, especially with Anna, Grace, Emma, and Sylvia. Their bodies were so seductive that he couldn't help but touch them to his heart's content.
"Mmmmgh~! Darling, don't you think it's about time you stop playing with our bodies? We're about to arrive at the capital," Grace mumbled in a muffled voice, trying to suppress her moans as Yuan drank her breastmilk while playing with her.
After arriving at their destination—the main entrance of the city—Queen Matilda and her sisters slowly and gracefully came out of the carriage, and following them, their children also emerged.
"Look at all those people who have gathered here to welcome everyone. This is really unexpected," Fiona, the first Princess of the Windfall Kingdom, mumbled in a dazed voice, seemingly surprised by the massive crowd.
"It's because our father has made history today by coming out alive from the Forest of Never Return, which hasn't happened in the past thousand years," Lavinia Windfall quickly informed her, fixing her glasses.
"Is that so... Incredible!" Oliver Windfall exclaimed with a surprised and excited look on his face, feeling extremely proud of his father.
"Not only that, their names will be written in history for achieving something that was never achieved by anyone in the past. We should all feel proud of our father and older brother's achievement," Lavinia said, excitement and anticipation evident in her voice.
"Your sister is right, we should be proud of your father and your brother's achievement." Aurelia appeared behind them, a smile on her face.

"Look at that! Isn't that the capital city?" one of the hunters pointed his finger toward the capital city in the distance, excitement evident on his face.
"Indeed. That's our capital city, without a doubt."
"The capital city looks so beautiful from up here; it's like a small paradise of some sort."
"Indeed. It's not only beautiful but also very peaceful compared to other nations' capital cities, and this peaceful atmosphere is all because of His Majesty's care and attention."
People began to murmur as they noticed the beautiful capital city in the distance. The tall walls surrounding the city were visible from miles away, and the tall palace at the center of the city looked magnificent; it was the center of attention.
Everyone was excited to see a city after so long. They could hardly contain their excitement to try the numerous kinds of cuisines inside the city, which they'd missed quite a lot during the long mission.
The carriages continued to move forward without stopping for a single second and would only stop once they arrived at the city.
Inside the luxurious carriage, Prince Tristan looked through the window and fixed his eyes on the city and the royal palace at the center. A gentle smile appeared on his face.
"Finally, I can see my mother and my beloved siblings. I wonder what they're currently doing..." Prince Tristan mumbled in a low voice.
After half an hour, all the carriages arrived before the entrance of the capital city. Many guards were stationed at the entrance, and the royal family was also present, waiting for everyone.
Once the carriages came to a stop, King Richard and Tristan emerged from one of the carriages and immediately approached Queen Matilda and the others.
After chatting with them for a minute, King Richard returned to his carriage and ordered everyone to march toward the gladiator's arena, where they had decided to park all the carriages.
As the carriages entered the city, people began to cheer for the king for successfully defeating the corrupted monsters and coming out alive.
"LONG LIVE HIS MAJESTY!"
"LONG LIVE PRINCE TRISTAN!"
