Reaching The Surface

-----

Alma, and her group, alongside the Unique Skill Users that were rescued by Drake were all brought to the surface by the joint effort of Drake's Slimes and Root, an enormous mass of plants, leaves, and hardened roots and branches with no defined shape, except with the slight appearance of some type of draconic monster, as it had a large dragon-like skull which it used as its "head".

"We are back… Sorry for not being able to help." Sighed Root. "I tried to break through to go to your aid, but Greenwood prepared magic against me, trying to drain away my life energy through death magic items… I never thought he would find my weakness so quickly; Oberon has always been a sharp bastard."

"It's fine… it was still all thanks to Drake, but we are fine now- Eh?" Alma quickly looked around her, finding the entire town of Heaven Port completely emptied of people.
