Being Strong On Your Own

Chapter 72: The Expedition

Irena spent only three days in the kingdom of Vardes and then she returned to Neira and told the queen named Alexia who sat down in disappointment.

"I really want to go too."

"Right, they said they'd hold the festival in a week's time, the queen could come there by then."

"Then I will try to finish my work when the time comes."

Irena smiled at him before saying goodbye to meet her partner.

"When did you just come? Are you sure you'll be on an expedition soon."

"I think faster is better."

"You're this."

Irena came out while waving her hand, it was daytime and as she was leaving the city, she found Eva, Winy and Angel there.

"It really feels nostalgic" said Winy followed by Eva.

"I'll fight."

"You're trying to act like you just got into this group" Angel said.

"Belgroff."

Irena looked at the three and smiled.

They were the second group formed by him as well as Grey he was also the one who lost the previous member by the undead king.

"Let's go, and we won't be back before finding the elven race."

"You look to enslave us, instead" Winy said in a slightly loud tone followed by Angel .

"I'm glad you did that far for my sake, but I want to come back here even if the elven race doesn't exist."

"Geez, you're really pessimistic."

"Why are you so sure?"

"Because I'm a priest."

"It really has nothing to do with it."

The next two days they arrived at the area where the previous kingdom was located, everything was just ruins and even just need a little more time these ruins will be completely complete.

"See this."

"Whatis that? I don't understand" Irena's words represent the other two.

"This is a message, written here is that we went north. It was written in the language of the elves."

"In other words."

Everyone stared at each other in silence.

"They're still alive."

They hugged each other, when this kingdom was destroyed the elves decided to migrate, at that time they realized that some of the elves had left the country and lived as adventurers, the residents thought maybe one day they would return to this country because that's why they left this message here.

Most likely the outer elves like Angel had gone there first, they sometimes forgot how vast the world was because it was always confined within a single city called the border city.

Angel was sitting limp as she wiped the tears on her face, she was the happiest person here.

Both of his parents were obviously from this country, one day because they were both adventurers they moved to a place that promised to earn money, at that time Angel found out that both her parents died while on duty and at that time she only knew that she was the only remaining elf.

"Thank God."

"We'll go back first to make preparations, after all I'm sure it's a cold area."

"Not the north is desert."

"I think the forest is thick."

No one knew it clearly, so all they had to do was look at it directly.

Grey who was checking the state of the city was shocked by the appearance of Sartina running at him.

"Your Majesty, I have news."

"Newspaper?"

"Irena's group has found a race of elves who are still alive and said they will live in the kingdom of Neira."

"Really, but why would they want to move?"

"Say the northern area is very cold not suitable for the life of the elves."

"So that's it."

"For so long they did not know that the undead king had been defeated and instead tried to stay there."

"It must be a very remote place."
