章 683: Sky Fire - I

Ansel stood upon the crimson plain, gazing at the sun rising on the horizon.

The six survivors unearthed yesterday were to be escorted to Valrhona's domain, a task eagerly volunteered for by the Crow's Nest. 

However, this relocation would have to wait until the situation in the enigma realm stabilized. Red Valley City's teleportation point had been utterly destroyed, forcing adventurers to journey here on foot. Diverting manpower for a return trip or squandering precious teleportation items merely to transport a handful of mortals was impractical.

Abandoning those he had rescued was not Ansel's style. These six were destined for Valrhona's domain, where, at the very least, his influence would ensure a tolerable future. Thus, they would need to endure a few days in this ruined city.

Had he been acting as Hydral, Ansel might have invested time in these survivors—soothing their spirits, analyzing their characters, and arranging optimal futures for them.
