Silverleaf City—The Place I Truly Belong.

After a few minutes, I forced myself to move.

I stood up slowly, careful not to make any noise.

The kids were still curled up under the blankets, their little chests rising and falling with each breath.

I smiled again, then I grabbed my coat and slung it over my shoulder, and then started packing our things into a small bag.

It wasn't much.

A few clothes, some bread, water, and a few healing herbs just in case.

Honestly, that was just a small cover since all the stuff was in the [Storage].

So yeah, we didn't need anything fancy.

We just needed to get home.

After everything was packed, I crouched down beside the bed.

"Hey... time to wake up," I whispered softly, brushing the hair out of Leaf's eyes.

She stirred a little, rubbing her eyes with her tiny fists.

"Mm... big brother...?" she mumbled, her voice still sleepy.

"Yeah, it's me," I chuckled quietly.

"Get up, Leaf. We're going back home."
