บท 218: Returning with elves

When I returned to the group, they naturally wondered why I had been gone for so long.

With an awkward look, I explained that it took longer than I thought before holding my stomach.

As soon as they heard this, they all revealed understanding looks and dropped the subject.

Just like this, we were off again, heading back to the town.

Since we had more people than before and the elves didn't travel with horses, it took us a bit longer to get back. They at least had magic that made them faster, so we were able to reach the town the second day.

When we arrived, Baroness Rose was already waiting for us.

One of Shaka's men had been left in town to receive the message, so I had given her notice before we left. I had also given her notice as soon as it was decided that the envoys would be sent, but…it was just too little time in the first place.
