87 – The Welcome

In the end, only seven children came with us, including Alain. As we flew, we had to tie them to my body and Xenora's. And that's not easy either. They get sick if we fly too fast. So, we had to reduce the speed significantly.

"We're about to get there, folks," I spoke to them.

"Huh?" Alain sounded confused.

"You wonder why it's only like this, huh?" I chuckled.

From the outside, my base looks like a big cave with several unfinished buildings on the right and left. Nothing special.

"Yeah." Alain scratched his hair. "I thought you would have a big and terrifying palace, Lord Vorn."

I laughed. When Xenora and I lowered the three boys and four girls to the ground, Ayre came to us while playing a cheerful song with her lute. Then, Robyn walked over to the children with her arms outstretched and wore a bright smile. "Welcome to Lord Vorn's house!"

The children could only freeze, perhaps not expecting such a warm welcome.
