Black Box
After a night of discussing future plans and a well-needed rest, it was time to move on. After a filling breakfast the maids had prepared for us it was about time for us to leave, but Elysia had something to say to the maids first.
"I know you guys want to leave this place, but currently there are some urgent matters that I am attending to. Until that's over with, I would like you all to stay here. Once we finish, I'll be able to get you all back to the surface." Elysia had promised to free these maids, who from what I was told were slaves to her grandpa.
"I'm guessing you're waiting to set up a teleport anchor back in the Demon Lands?" I didn't quite know how Elysia's teleportation works, but I assumed it required her to visit the location first.
"Mhm, so until we reach a safe place, I would rather them stay here." Some maids looked disappointed, but they nodded, understanding the situation.
