The Dungeon Conquerors: Journey to the Peak

When Rein was busy escorting the captives to their villages, Stella and Tasha were also busy doing their part of the work.

They took the four girls to the same inn where they were staying and booked a room from them for the night. Then they left to meet with Lulu.

Lulu would be free from her receptionist duties at around six and it was almost that time. So Stella and Tasha quickly went to a restaurant called Fairy's Diner, where Lulu was supposed to meet with everyone.

After reaching the diner, they saw that Lulu was already there even though it was not the time for her leave yet. But Stella and Tasha did not think much about it and went to her.

Stella was not familiar with Lulu as she had never seen her before. It was their first time meeting each other. But as Tasha had seen her several times, it was easy for her to recognise Lulu.

As a mutual acquaintance, Tasha introduced Stella and Lulu to each other. Then they ordered some food and started talking among themselves.

Lulu was acting a bit hesitant as if she wanted to ask something. Stella and Tasha also knew what she might want to ask and decided to not keep the poor girl anxious anymore. Stella was the first to speak up -

"Miss Lulu, I'm sorry to say this but unfortunately Rein might not be able to join us today."

Hearing that Lulu froze and then her eyes turned empty. Then a weird light lit up in her dead eyes and she asked -

"But that's not possible. Rein loves me. So why wouldn't he join us."

Seeing her reaction both Stella and Tasha showed surprise expression on their faces. But then they looked at each other for a bit and then their expression changed. Their eyes also turned blurry and dead. Especially the weird light inside their eyes was stronger than Lulu.

Seeing it Lulu suddenly felt a bit relieved. Then she asked the reason why Rein could not come here. This time Tasha and Stella told her about the situation in details. As Rein had accepted her as his lover, that means it was fine to tell her everything without hiding anything from her.

While they were having the discussion on the situation, everyone's eyes had returned back normal. Now they just looked like normal girls talking with each other.

Lulu was a kind person, who did not have any discriminative thinking toward other races. So she was quite sad after learning that the ruler of their city was doing something so evil. She told Tasha and Stella that if she could help them in any way, she would do her best.

Even if she needed to lie to the adventure guild for that.

She was actually talking about the platinum rank adventurer that they had captured. He was currently trapped in a magic item and was also completely unconscious by a dark magic spell that Stella used in him.

Stella was planning to hand him over to an adventure guild of a different city of the neighbouring nation where the guild would be able to judge him without any bias.

Next three of the girls started to discuss about Rein and spent a good time in each other's company. Then when it was dinnertime, they returned to their inn after buying dinner for the girls. Lulu also followed them back to their inn.

Stella, Tasha and Lulu ate their dinner alongside the rescued girls. One of them was an iron rank cat beastkin adventurer called Katty, who was caught by the slave traders when she went to a forest to search for some herbs.

As an adventurer she had no permanent place to live so she decided to stay with the other girls as she had the highest combat capability among them.

Other than her, there was also an elf named Hyaka. She was actually the only elf present in the underground cellar. Elves were very valuable as slaves but the risk in capturing one was also extremely high.

Elves were quite a united race and one of the strongest nations of this continent was ruled by them. So it was very risky to antagonise such a powerful race.

This girl was very unlucky and got caught when she was in the beastkin village which got attacked. She was a researcher and was in the village to search for a rare herb and got caught up in this situation. Currently she was quite nervous as she could feel the bloodline suppression from Stella.

The third girl was surprisingly a human with the name of Clara. She was also the only human trapped with the non-human slaves. The reason why Sara was able to escape was also this girl.

She was an orphan who was able to become a staff for the shop where the slaves were kept. As she was new for the job and was not very knowledgeable about the area, she mistakenly discovered the underground cellar and even helped Sara to escape.

But she was ultimately a normal weak girl and was caught and beaten up.

The last person was a small dwarf girl, Becky. She was from one of the villages where Rein was currently taking the captives to, but this girl had lost all her family members when the village was attacked.

Not only that but she became very close friends with the human girl so she decided to stay with her friend.

They were all sweet and good girls. But now they needed to think about what they would do going forward. Stella asked them this question.

After thinking about it for some time, Katty was the first to reply. She said that she was planning to go back to her past life of being an adventurer again. Hyaka also wanted to continue her research.

Only Clara and Becky were not sure what to do. Seeing their distressed expression, Katty and Hyaka started to console them. They all had become extremely close after facing hardships together.

Tasha then told the girls to not worry about it much. There would be many options for them going forward and just told them to wait for Rein to come back and he would be able to give them good ideas about what they should do from here on out. Rein was good at psychological stuff.

Stella had read many books on this matter, but she was never able to be as communicative as Rein.

As they were talking to each other like that time passed quickly and soon it was dawn. None of the girls spent a wink as they were waiting for Rein. Lulu once tried to go to bed as she had to work the next day.

But Stella and Tasha stopped her and said that Rein would be able to do something about her sleep depravity, so staying awake was alright.

Rein had a light magic spell that could rejuvenate someone but continuous use of this skill was not good. But using it once in a while was absolutely fine. So Lulu stayed awake.

As the first rays of the sunlight hit the window a light suddenly appeared in the room and then Rein's figure also appeared there. Stella, Tasha and Lulu immediately went to hug him and the other four girls also went close to him.

Surrounded by his lovers and seeing their happy faces, the gloominess in Rein's heart disappeared and he became happy. Then he greeted the girls with a joyful smile on his face -

"Good morning, darlings."
