Weren�t that crow�s owner, the Dark Elves, and Cale Henituse, their leader, currently running away? She could see them heading west past the city walls and away from the Lord�s Castle.
But showing them despair?

Her mind quickly came to a conclusion.

�They�re not running away!�

She quickly looked around and approached a black mage before grabbing him by the collar and giving him an order.

�Cast flight magic on me now! Either that, or contact Sayeru or the White Star immediately!�

She needed to let them know.
She needed to tell them that those bastards were not running away.

Tasha was asking Cale a question at that moment.

�How far do we have to run?�

Cale grabbed Gashan�s shoulders and Gashan stopped walking. Tasha stopped as well and asked again. Her gaze headed up to the sky for a moment.

�The other Dark Elves who went to the Lord�s Castle will finish their tasks and reunite with us soon. But why are we the only ones running away?�

She could see Cale start to smile.

�Of course, only we are running away.�

Other than Gashan, only the Dark Elves would have heard the message from their Elementals. There were many people who had not heard Cale say, �run.� Cale stoically responded to Tasha who found it weird that they were the only ones running away and looked forward.
They were now on top of the western city wall. Cale opened his mouth to speak once he got there.

� Human! Why are you and the Dark Elves running away? I did what you told me to do before I went to the Eastern continent!

The woman in a black robe who had flown toward the territory and the escaping party was now floating above the city wall looking down at Cale who was on Gashan�s back.

�Mary.�

The black robe slightly moved as she bowed.

�Give me a ride.�

The Dragon lowered its head. Cale walked onto the black bones. He held Mary�s hand and stood up straight.
He then gave an order to the Dark Elves.

�You guys go and prepare. Follow our original plan.�

There were multiple things in the desert to tie the White Star down in the Land of Death.
The people of the Underground City were able to create large traps throughout the desert because it was a discarded land that nobody traveled across. JrNovels.com
