Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure-Chapter 854 Feels off

854 Feels off

Seeing the goblins scatter, the ones that formed the blockade around this clearing turned back to look at us.

They didn't come over right away since there was still the chance that we would be attacked by the goblins, but they could tell that something had changed.

Scar and the others just looked at me with a strange look, but they didn't say anything as if they were waiting for me to say something.

It was just that I was lost in my thoughts about how easy this was…

So it was Scar that broke the silence first by coming forward to tap me on the shoulder before asking, "What's wrong? Are you alright?"

I was pulled out of my thoughts when I heard this.

I turned to look at him with that worried look on his face and to look at Cecilia who was with the others who also looked at me with a worried look. The only reason that she didn't come over like Scar did was because Scar was in charge of everyone, while she was just a soldier right now.

She couldn't just break order because of her personal feelings and put everyone in danger.

I shook my head and said, "There's nothing wrong."

Scar raised a brow when he heard this before turning to look at the crystal to say, "What do we do about this now?"

I looked at the crystal as well for a bit before saying, "Bring it back with us and see what we can learn from it. It's something that the demons were using to incite the monsters, so it should be worth studying."

Scar slightly knitted his brows when he heard this as he said, "Are you sure that it's safe?"

I hesitated for a few seconds, but I gave a nod in the end as I said, "I've already taken care of it. It should be safe now."

Scar once again raised a brow, but he didn't say anything as he picked up the crystal.

The crystal wasn't that big, so it was quite easy for him to pick up and put away.

Once we were done with the crystal, there was nothing left for us here.

It wasn't as if we wanted to stay in this place that was filled with monsters any longer, so we quickly left this place.

It was a very easy trip through the forest since most of the goblins had scattered to who knows where. The path that we had cleared before was still clear, so it was easy for us to return to the edge of the forest.

However, the work wasn't done with just that.

With my authority, it was easy to get the soldiers to do what I wanted, but I didn't want to cause a commotion by revealing that I was here.

So Scar was the one that did most of the work.

It wasn't a problem since he had the decree that had both mine and the prime minister's signature.

The soldiers moved closer to the forest and completely surrounded it, but the blockade that they formed wasn't one that was completely closed. There were gaps all along the blockade, as if they wanted to let things through.

That was because…that was what I wanted.

We had no idea just how many monsters were gathered in the forest, but I could guess that there wasn't a small amount based on what we had seen. At the same time, there was the chance that there were high level monsters that were also there.

Even if we had destroyed the source of what was causing those monsters to gather, it wasn't as if they would just disappear.

The monsters that had been gathered and spawned because of the dark crystal would eventually scatter.

If we just let them scatter without regulating it, then it would be chaos for the villages that were around the area. We couldn't just let them trickle into the villages and cause damage there.

So we had to contain the spread of the monsters as they left the forest.

That was the point of this blockade.

If there were a few goblins that came out of the forest, we would just let them pass.

A few goblins were not a problem for the villages since there were adventurers who would be able to deal with them. If there was a large group of goblins that came out of the forest, that was when we stepped in to take them down.

At the same time, if there were any higher ranked variants that came out, we also dealt with those…or at least that would have been the case if there were any higher ranked variants.

It was just goblins in the end.

Even after two days, there were only goblins that trickled out of the forest and the amount of goblins coming out was starting to decrease. It was as if there weren't any goblins that were left in the forest.

In the end, it wasn't as if we could stay here forever…so we had to leave this matter to the soldiers.

At the same time, I had Scar put up a request at the local adventurer's guild to see if they could find any higher ranked variants in the forest.

There was the possibility that they might have formed a base in the forest and weren't planning on leaving.

If we just let them be, it would be a danger to the people of the surrounding area.

So we had to turn to the adventurers to take care of this.

As I had Scar do all of this, he couldn't help asking, "Why are you being so cautious? It doesn't feel like there's a need to do all of this."

I didn't look at him, I just looked at the forest in front of us with knitted brows as I said, "It just feels like something is off…"

He looked at me with one raised brow, but he didn't say anything in the end.

They get banned right away!
