Chapter 389: When Twilight Falls [Part 2]

After taking care of the wounded, Millie took them back to the Baron's Residence to let them fully recover from their injuries.

The Baron was alarmed after hearing the news, and wanted to send his personal army to help with the rescue of the Princess and his son.

However, after hearing that the ones who kidnapped the Princess were a group with four rankers, the Baron collapsed on the ground as he was aware that this was something that he was unable to handle with his current strength.

"I need to find them," Millie said with determination as he looked at Lux. "Even if it's just me, I need to save the Princess."

Lux frowned. Clearly, Millie wasn't able to think properly because the person she had sworn to protect was kidnapped while she was away.

Just as the Half-Elf was about to tell the green-haired Dwarf that she shouldn't do anything reckless, rows of words appeared in front of him, making his body stiffen.

Lux didn't know whether he should laugh or cry about the timing of the quest. In truth, he had already decided to rescue the Princess since Cai and Keane were captured along with her.

He couldn't possibly leave the two of them behind, especially when the members of Twilight Rain had them in their custody.

"Listen, even if you want to look for the Princess, do you know where to go?" Lux asked.

"It doesn't matter. I need to do something. I can't just stay here and do nothing."

"Calm down. I have a way to find them."

Millie, who seemed to be grasping for straws looked at Lux with a hopeful gaze. After the wager she had with the chubby teenager and seeing the Monster of Ruin with her own eyes, she learned to trust him more.

"If you travel at full speed, how long will it take you to reach the nearest city with a teleportation gate that connects to the capital?" Lux asked.

He wasn't quite familiar with the geography of the Kingdom of Gweliven, so he was hoping that Millie would be able to fill in the gaps for what he didn't know.

"If I travel at my full speed, it will still take me almost five hours to reach a city with a teleportation gate that connects to the capital," she replied.

Lux nodded his head in understanding before glancing at the timer on his Soul Book.

Mission Time: 21: 14: 25

'Five hours to reach a city with a teleportation gate, and a few more hours to get reinforcements,' Lux thought. 'Give and take, the fastest time that reinforcements can arrive is in twelve to fifteen hours… that is cutting it way too close to the arrival of the Monster of Ruin.'

Lux's silence made Millie feel quite anxious. When she said that she could arrive at a city with a teleportation gate in five hours, she meant that she could do that if she pushed herself to the very limit.

According to her estimate, it might even take her six to seven hours. However, if she was willing to go all out and sacrifice a few things, she could reach her destination in five hours.

After pondering things for a very long time, Lux decided to ask Millie if she had a way to contact her Master, who was one of the members of the Order of the Griffon.

"I have an artifact that I use to contact Master, but it has a very limited range," Millie replied in a somewhat embarrassed tone. "It will only activate if the receiver is within a six mile-wide radius. Beyond that range, I am unable to contact him."

Lux sighed. It seems that he really needed to use everything he had in order to even get a chance to succeed in his mission.

"Stay here," Lux ordered. "I will contact some people. Make sure that you don't leave the Baron's Residence. We will go and look for the Princess as soon as I finish finding help."

Millie wanted to grab hold of Lux and tell him to not leave her. After losing the Princess, the green-haired Dwarf felt as if she had lost the ability to think clearly, and was now only clinging to the faint hope that the chubby teenager had presented to her.

Seeing her anxious gaze, Lux decided to give her some assurance that everything would be alright.

"Listen. Although they are not Rankers, my friends are very capable people," Lux said. "Since they are with the Princess, I am certain that they will do everything in their power to ensure her safety."

"Is that true?"

"Yes. They are brave and resourceful individuals. Even in the face of adversity, they will be able to think calmly and face the dangers with a calm attitude. I'm sure that even now, they are looking for ways to deal with their current circumstances."

Millie felt a little better after hearing Lux's words. If his friends were truly capable individuals and were able to deal with their current predicament calmly, then there was a small chance for them to escape their captors.

The green-haired Dwarf wondered what kind of friends Lux had. If they were truly as brave and courageous as the chubby teenager portrayed them to be, then she would like to form connections with them as well.

"Nooooooooooooo!"

Cai's squeal reverberated inside the cavern, where the members of Twilight Rain had taken them after ambushing the princess' entourage.

"My meat doesn't taste good," Cai wailed. "I don't eat healthy foods. If you eat me, all of you will have Swine Disease. It has a 100% mortality rate! No one has ever survived it. Even Rankers are no exception!"

Cai, who was currently tied up on a log, was currently being roasted over an open fire. It kept on squealing out of fear and anxiety.

The Ranker who was spinning the log was quite amused with the Boar's antics. Originally, they didn't plan to take anyone with them, but after seeing Keane, who was a Human—a race rarely seen in the Kingdom of Gweliven, they decided to take him into custody along with his "pet", who was now being roasted alive.

"You bastards! Do you know who I am?" Cai squealed as the ranker threw more firewood on the bonfire, making the flames grow bigger. "I am a member of the strongest guild in the world! When my Guildmaster finds out what you're doing to me, he will hunt you down until none of you are left!"

The Ranker laughed after hearing Cai's threats. He was quite curious to know what Guild the Boar belonged to, so he decided to ask, just for fun, while making the boar suffer hardships while it was being roasted alive.

"You're a member of the strongest guild in the world? That's very scary," the Dwarven Ranker, who had reddish-brown hair, said in a teasing tone. "Pray tell, what is the name of this strong Guild? I want to know so I can run away when I meet your Guild Master."

Cai gritted its teeth before shouting with all of its might.

"Listen well, you bastard!" Cai roared. "My Guild is called Twilight Rain! It's a very powerful guild—so powerful that we don't speak how powerful it is. Only those who are in high positions are aware of our existence! If you don't want to get hurt, release us now before my Guild Master personally strangles all of you!"

The Ranker with reddish-brown hair, as well as the rest of the people inside the Cavern all shifted their attention on the Boar that was desperately struggling against the metallic chains that bound it to the log.

A moment later, all the kidnappers laughed at the same time, making Keane, who had been knocked unconscious earlier, regain his consciousness.

"Did you hear that? It said that it's a member of Twilight Rain!"

"Hahaha! This Boar is quite funny. I like it!"

"I have heard of this Twilight Rain before. It is indeed the most powerful guild in the world. Oh no! We kicked a steel plate! We are doomed!"

"I think it is best that we kneel and ask for forgiveness. If we do that, perhaps the Guild Master of Twilight Rain will forgive us."

Cai, who seemed to have caught a second wind, decided to go all in, so that the kidnappers would free it from the chains that bound it.

"Hah! Now you realize who you are dealing with?!" Cai shouted. "My grandfather is a Saint! The moment he finds out that I am kidnapped, he would scour the lands looking for all of you and turn you all into meat paste! Release me and I will forget that this incident even happened. If you know what is good for all of you, you better apologize to me right here, right now!"

The members of Twilight Rain quieted down for a few seconds before laughing once more. They found the Boar to be quite an amusing beast.

When Cai said that it was a member of Twilight Rain, all of them found it extremely funny because it was basically threatening them with their very own guild.

Then, it said that its grandfather was a Saint, and if they didn't release it, the Saint would turn them into meat paste.

How could they possibly believe such a story?

The Ranker lifted Cai off the bonfire and set it aside on the ground. In truth, they really didn't need to cook it since they had already bought food beforehand.

The dwarf with reddish-brown hair just thought that it would be entertaining to roast the boar alive and watch it beg him to spare its life while they waited for their comrades to return from their scouting trip.

But, after hearing Cai's antics, the Ranker felt that it would be a shame to roast such an amusing pet, so he decided to take the Boar back to their Guild Headquarters and make it an official member of their Dark Guild, for the sake of his own amusement.
