Capítulo 96: Unsuccessful Return

The peaceful Arbor town was peaceful no more. The residents had gasped in surprise when they found out the should be triumphant adventurers returned empty-handed.

With great shame, the adventurers returned to the freedom union. There, Khal and Miller were waiting. Those that needed to mourn their friends and settle related matters were absent. The injured were also naturally excluded. A potion couldn't exactly fix a broken bone, at least not any they could afford.

"The losses were… unexpected." Said Khal as he pondered on the best ways to word this.

"Regardless, we learned a valuable lesson..." Khal said solemnly. His facial expression showed that he empathized with them, he wasn't blaming them. What followed was a solemn bout of silence, the adventurers could only keep their head down in shame. It was especially so for those that had cowardly thoughts.
