No One's POV

Currently, everyone was in Hajime's Jeep, speeding down back to Ur, with Tio strapped to the top outside.

Atsushi: Nagumo! Can't you drive a bit slower?!

Hajime: Can it! We're in a hurry.

Shea: Tio! How many monsters will attack the town?!

Tio: At least 6,000 from what I could see!

Hajime: Yeah... Might want to add another 0 to that number.

Nhazul: 60,000? And how do you know that?

Hajime: I'm using my [Ornis].

Nhazul: Ornis?

Hajime: By converting Gravity magic to Creation magic, I casted it on minerals. Then I used them on the Golems from the Labyrinth.

Nhazul: Ah, the ones you stole.

Hajime: No, she willingly gave them-

Nhazul: You stole them...

Hajime: Oh whatever. That fact is they're already on the move. It'll take half a day to reach Ur at their current speed.

Aiko: 60,000?! We can't deal with that many...

Will: Um, perhaps Nhazul and Hajime can-

Nhazul: No. Our job is to protect you.

Hajime: Plus, even if we wanted to, we can't do with them still in the mountains. Also, what if we get wiped out? Then the town would get caught completely unaware.

Nhazul: For their survival in mind, the best play is evacuating.

After returning to Ur, Nhazul and Hajime would get out of the Jeep, and noticed Will was missing.

Nhazul: Where the hell did he go?

Nhazul looked behind him and saw Will running towards the central building of the town.

Nhazul: ...-_-... That little...

As Nhazul and Aiko made their way there, they would see Will trying to warn the leader of the town.

Leader: Imbecile! That's enough of your nonsense!

Will: But this comes from the [Goddess of Fertility]!

The leader then looked towards Aiko for conformation.

Leader: Is it true, Goddess of Fertility?!

Aiko: Um... Could you not call me that...?

Nhazul just looked at Aiko confused.

Nhazul: I'm sorry, the Goddess of what...?

Aiko then looked down embarrassed.

Aiko: Let's not talk about it, if possible...

Will: The town is in danger! Everyone needs to evaluate, now!

Nhazul: Will! Don't go around doing things on your own. You're under our protection, don't forget that. We're heading back to Fuhren.

Will: H-How can you say that?! Do you want to abandon this town?!

Nhazul: At this point, all anyone can do is evacuate. This place is just a tourist spot. Going somewhere else won't change much.

Will: But I can't just leave the townspeople behind and run away alone! No matter what you or Hajime say!

Nhazul: Oh? Is that so? You have a sense of justice, that alone is something I can respect. But we have minds of our own. Our job is to protect and return you. Not protect this town. If you won't come along willingly, I'll just take you by force.
