033. The Way Home

In fact, according to Olya's previous caution, she would not easily take Eren to the camp where her clan stayed.

But Allen's kindness from beginning to end was too strong, and no one could be wary of the she-bear, to Masami, to the children, to himself who had a cold attitude at the beginning, and to his generous smile when he suddenly got up.

Besides, she suffered too much in the process of escaping from the endless forest, just like a girl who is addicted to the grief of a broken love, and meets a warm man who can melt the ice and snow, how can she not fall?

When Alan and the others approached the half-elf camp, they were immediately stopped by the arrows of the patrolmen, but when they saw Olya's face, they were allowed to leave.

Although I don't know why she brought humans with her, the princess never harmed them.

The half-elf patrol's point was immediately verified, and the three roasted rabbit legs that the humans brought to them were tender and fragrant.

Stepping into the half-elf camp, Aaron had to sigh at the sight that greeted him.

Under a makeshift tent made of tree branches, a dozen wounded half-elves lay inside, their wounds covered with herbs.

However, the effect of the herbs is not ideal, and some serious wounds have begun to have a tendency to decay.

"Locke, help deal with it!"

"Yes, young master. ”

Locke, along with Hemmit, took out all the gauze and alcohol they had carried, and used them on the wounded who were lying on the ground.

After distributing the barbecue, Olya's eyes were a little moist after seeing this scene, the road was too difficult, and she, a child who had been hiding under the queen's wing, had been gritting her teeth and persevering, until today someone finally helped her.

"Thank you. ”

Olya couldn't remember how many times she had said the word to Alan, but she could already feel the paleness of the word.

"You're welcome, you saved my companion, and I should help your companion. ”

Alan smiled, rolled his eyes, and said, "It's just that your environment here is too bad!"

"yes, so I want to ask you one more thing, can you give us that cave when you leave......"

"Of course not!"

Alan's decisive refusal made Olya a little disappointed, but she didn't have any resentment in her heart, after all, the other party had already helped her too much.

"Still, I have a good place to go......"

Olya's eyes lit up, waiting for Allen's next step, only to be interrupted by a patrol sentry rushing in!

"Your Royal Highness, those gnolls are here!"

This sentence made all the half-elves frightened, and Alan was also very worried.

Olya is worried about the people, and Eren is nervous that he has been laying the groundwork for so long, and what kind of bullshit jackals appear when he is about to harvest the fruits!

"The gnoll man, like the hyena, is cunning and patient, and will always chase after its prey. ”

Locke walked over and looked at the sentry and asked, "How many?"

"Close to forty!"

"Then don't worry at all, young master, the strength of these guys is no different from waste, if we kill four each, the gnolls are not enough!"

"Choke!" Locke pulled out his long sword.

"Lads, the time has come to test your true strength!"

A series of clanging sounds rang out, and the guards drew their swords one after another, followed in Locke's footsteps, and rushed out.

Hunting is not the job of guards, killing humanoids like jackals is what they are trained to do.

The gnoll man was very ugly, and his face looked somewhat similar to that of a wolf, but his dark nose, his small body was covered with tattered animal skins, and he held an axe and mace with a wooden handle in his hand, which completely ruined the wolf's handsome appearance.

And Locke is not wrong at all, the strength of these jackals is really not very good, ordinary guards can easily defeat one against two, Cobb is even more slaughtered, and every time the giant sword is swung, a jackal man falls.

At the same time, the two hunters and the half-elf patrol kept drawing their bows, and Ellen and Dinah did not make a move, and the battle was already one-sided.

"If only you had been there at the time, then maybe there wouldn't be so few people who escaped. ”

When Olya and the half-elves first escaped from the Endless Forest, the elves were still chasing and killing, and then they encountered nearly two hundred gnolls, otherwise Alan would not have seen the miserable situation in the camp.

"Sister, shall we go to Allen's brother's territory to live?"

Masami tugged at the corner of Olya's clothes,

"Sister Dinah said that there is a big castle there to protect us, and there are big soft beds in the castle, and we can have such barbecue every day!

Also, Sister Dinah said that there was milk in the castle that was as sweet as honey, and juice that was more fragrant than berries.

The most important thing is that there are lights in the castle, sister, let's go to the castle, Masami is afraid of the dark......"

If it weren't for the ongoing battle ahead, Olya would have immediately broken down and cried when Masami begged to say this.

But even so, her eyes still flashed with crystal, and Dinah on the side turned her face directly to the side, secretly wiping the corners of her eyes.

"Brother Allen......"

Seeing that Olya didn't reply, Yami ran to Alan's side aggrievedly with tears in her eyes, and was hugged by Alan.

"What's the matter, why are we crying for our poor little Yami?"

"Brother Alan, your castle ......"

"Is your castle willing to take in us homeless half-elves?"

Before Masami could speak, Olya finished her request, and it was impossible for her to put a child in charge of the vassalage of the race.

"Of course, Olya, we are friends. ”

Eren put Masami in the crook of his arm, and then stretched out his right hand, "Welcome to become a member of the Merlin family, beautiful elven princess." ”

......

The appearance of the gnolls did no harm other than crushing the last line of defense in Olya's heart.

Alan's presence made the night extremely comfortable, and Olya had never slept so peacefully since escaping from the endless forest.

Early the next morning, Allen's party set out on the journey back to Fort Mussen.

Of course, this time there was an extra group of children and half-elf wounded in the team.

Because of the wounded, the team did not move very fast, and it was not until the afternoon when the sun was about to set that everyone walked out of the edge of the forest.

However, the rest of the journey was much more comfortable, because Locke had sent his guards back to the castle early, so the horses and carriages had been waiting outside the forest for a long time.

And to Allen's surprise, there was an outsider he knew well among the waiting guards.

Oster's squire, Mirien.

Seeing her eagerness, Alan concluded that she must have something important to wait here, so he hurriedly walked up.

"Good day, Master Allen, I have already sent the things you asked for to Fort Musen. ”

Mirien said with some eagerness, "Besides, Master Ost needs your help!"
