章 209: Chapter 208: That Last Little Mile

Standing on the porch, we all waved goodbye to the Empress' Carriage, which carried the Empress and Sultana back towards the Palace above.

Glancing up towards the sky, I pursed my lips at the sun that rested directly above us.

Returning my gaze to the women by my side, I said "Shall we go down to Zhu'Rong Caverns?"

Everyone nodded, likely for different reasons; Anput wanted to stretch, Leone wanted some more materials, and Jahi wanted the practice.

Though, I could also see the mild relief in each of their eyes as they likely thought that letting me have my own fun down in the Caverns would result in them having an easier time later tonight.

Sadly, that's not how it'll work...

Though, I let them have that small glimmer of hope as we returned inside, each going to our rooms to grab our gear.
