Steampunk Era: Mad Abield

For a long time, Malin always felt that Fate had been quite generous to him. Although he had to face that life-threatening job every day, as long as he had the lovely Leopard Girl cooking delicious food for him daily, and as long as there was meat to eat and cats to stroke, life wasn't too unbearable. Working a bit harder and facing some difficulties on the job weren't really an issue for a man. Moreover, being able to live two lives meant one shouldn't have too high demands, right, Mr. Different-Kind? Having said that, and without waiting for an answer, the young man snapped his fingers, and the white flame on his fingertip lit the tobacco in his other hand, then he flicked it towards the non-human entity on the stake. Welcome to Abield, to witness the last splendor of the steampunk era. And the madness.

Chapter Ninety-Eight: Return

Gather the corpses and burn them with the settlement—leaving the bodies in the open will only attract wild beasts and Spirits, which would pose a threat to nearby villages after feasting on the remains.

As snow began to fall, Malin halted the team's onward journey, retreating with several dozen goblin younglings. One of the summoned Earth Elementals was lost, so Malin ordered Clovis to cancel the summoning, and had his own summoned Earth Elemental carry some goods chests that had been found in the settlement—these chests certainly bore evidence of attacks on small human caravans; otherwise, where would such non-goblin-style chests come from?

Returning these chests to the city and handing them over to the merchant guild should fetch a substantial reward while also clearing the caravan's name—a mercenary's death by the hand of another race is better than the stigma of having fled with the goods.
