Returning from the underground passage, we all gathered in my room to discuss the information we had gathered so far.

In my room were Ethan, Nox, Theodore, Vanilla, and Nikolai, all huddled together around a lantern placed on the floor.

Despite being nobles and royalty, no one hesitated to sit on the bare floor. Indeed, in a world on the brink of destruction, even royalty sits on the ground.

"Harrison is taking too long to return. Should we send support?" I asked, concerned.@@novelbin@@

Harrison's team had not yet returned while our team had managed to gather Elpinos herbs and explore the underground passages.

"It might take longer since they are transporting livestock as well. If you are worried, I can dispatch a few royal guards to assist them," Theodore suggested thoughtfully.

"Hmm. That sounds like a good idea," I agreed.

Nikolai promptly stood up, bid us farewell, and left the room to organize the support.

With the guards dispatched, I felt a bit more at ease.

We still had the task of compiling all the important information we had gathered.
