By the time the wyvern riders were done, Robert was hella out of his elements, as the barrier he created faltered almost immediately. But thankfully, it was resolved without bloodshed, and the couple thanked both Dexter and Robert for their assistance. The artificer patted the husband on the shoulder, had a firm grip before nodding in approval as he watched the two followed the trail to the village that he spoke of. Turning over to Dexter, who, for all his cowardice earlier, bravely helped him in the face of danger there, he too gave the young demon a nod.

He might seem like a kid, but Robert found the act at least the mark of a man.

A while later, seeing MacKenzie along with the group of prisoners made Robert sigh in relief, but he was too tired to really make a scene or anything. [color=0054a6]"I hope yall are now ready to go to the village, because I sure did."[/color] Was his only remark, not really to anyone, but his side-glance to Yakeru was meant to be an indirect jab at the youngster's rashness. He might not get it right here, but later he would, because the artificer would not let this slide so easily. For now, he just wanted some fish.

He spent most of the trip back to the village in silence. Only once he reached there would he speak, mostly to the village chief, who promptly agreed to let the refugees and the reincarnated to stay there, but it will probably take a bit of time to get everything ready, because of the sudden influx of people coming in. Then, Robert would excuse himself for a couple of while or so as the village was getting ready. If one were to follow the man, they'd find quite a large house stationed in an obscure corner of the village, easily missed and hidden. It looked primitive, but make no mistake, it was very mystical once you step inside it. The ticks and clasps of wood or metal together made for a very surreal experience, as all sorts of machineries, powered by physics and a little bit of magic touch made the house lively even if no one was living there except Robert. For those attentive, there was a checkered board of 64 squares on one of the desks near the doorway, filled with pieces that might be familiar to the reincarnated. Does this game also exist in this world too?
