Chapter 65: Returning to the Shelter

As they journeyed back to the shelter, the once-familiar path now seemed less daunting. The party's spirits remained high, and the forest appeared to have quieted down from the tumultuous battles they had fought on their way in. Five days passed without any major sightings of strong monsters, a stark contrast to their initial journey.

Arriving at the shelter brought a sense of relief and accomplishment. The same walls that had welcomed them before stood unchanged, a testament to their efforts in defending it. The people inside greeted them with joy and relief, their faces lighting up as the adventurers returned. Hugs, cheers, and smiles were exchanged, rekindling the feeling of belonging that the shelter had provided.
