’Judging by the direction of the sound, Headmaster Astoria should have passed the region I was at to investigate the ruckus I ’ve previously caused, ’ Vaan thought.

Nevertheless, Headmaster Astoria didn ’t linger in the area for long and went on ahead to slaughter goblins.

If Vaan had traveled straight, Headmaster Astoria would have indeed run into him. Fortunately, he had chosen to veer off to the left path.

That being said, Vaan was a little surprised to see Headmaster Astoria enter the Red Goblin Mountains so soon.

’The Grand Inquisitor ’s original plan was to have the mercenaries clear a path for the main force… But the goblins in the inner region have proven themselves to be much more troublesome to deal with… If Headmaster Astoria entered the mountain, then that means the plan has been changed… ’ Vaan figured.

Nevertheless, he didn ’t find it too surprising.

After all, the goblins in the depths of the cursed region have shown to be skillfully trained, but not by the members of the Assembly of the Silent Night. They couldn ’t have trained the goblins so quickly even if they could control them.

’As expected, the ominous feeling continues to grow stronger. There ’s definitely something wrong with the Red Goblin Mountains, ’ Vaan figured.

With Headmaster Astoria joining the goblin cleanup, it was safe to assume that they were going to take their time with conquering the Red Goblin Mountains, which was a safe approach.

At the very least, it was much safer than simply charging into the heart of the mountain to eliminate the Assembly of Silent Night ’s members.

The Assembly of Silent Night ’s members and the goblins were unlikely to be the only threats to be found in the Red Goblin Mountains.

’If Headmaster Astoria continues to attract all the attention like this, she is likely to draw out some enemies. That could be my chance to sneak into the core region, ’ Vaan pondered.

However, he wasn ’t so confident in sneaking around undetected, especially not when the Plant-type Abomination ’s attention was on him.

That being said, he didn ’t quite understand the relationship between the Plant-type Abomination, the goblins, the members of the Assembly of the Silent Night, and the potential fourth unknown party.

Rumble…!

Vaan suddenly paused his movement and extended his senses to the ground, feeling numerous weak tremors through it. They were caused by the movements of a very large force.
