"So-ryong, lead us in the direction the bats flew from."

"Yes, Father."@@novelbin@@

As soon as my adoptive father confirmed the sighting of the bat swarm, he gave me an immediate order.

To take the lead and guide the group.

Of course, given the nature of the jungle, it was necessary to have people clearing the path ahead, so he assigned warriors from the Beast Palace to accompany me.

"A few members of the Fierce Wolf Unit should go ahead and clear the way in the direction So-ryong is leading."

"Yes, Palace Lord!"

"This way."

"Understood, So-ryong! Let's move!"

"Yes!"

At my adoptive father’s command, I took the lead and pointed in the right direction. Immediately, the warriors of the Beast Palace rushed forward, hacking away at the dense jungle vegetation to carve out a path.

Slash! Slash!

As towering plants and thick vines were cut down, a passage quickly formed. Following right behind were Grandfather Mandok Shingun and the warriors of the Tang Clan.

"We follow So-ryong!"

"Yes, Grand Elder!"

With that, I led the group along the ridgeline of the northern slope of Namna Mountain, heading in the direction we had deduced from the flight of the bats.

Occasionally, I would rise into the air alongside Cho to double-check our bearings.

"There’s a cliff ahead. We should descend to the right."

"Understood, So-ryong!"

"So-ryong, Father says that even though it's getting dark, we'll make camp once we reach the cave entrance, so hurry."

"Got it, Sister Seol."
