After leaving that area, I came across several more orcs that I had the Echo Bat take control of.
The previous fight had gotten rid of all the orcs under my control, so I needed a few more orcs just in case anything happened.
It was even quite lucky that I ran into these orcs right after that fight, especially since I hadn't run into anything earlier.
But that was also because I was getting closer to the center of the dungeon break. The closer that I got to the center of the dungeon break, the more monsters there were.
Only I didn't know at this point.
The only thing that I was focused on was getting to my house as soon as possible.
But it turned out that I didn't need to do that.
Since there were more and more orcs that appeared, that meant that there were also more people that needed to be rescued.
