After leaving the kids with Ruby while I keep an eye on them using my clones within their equipment, we decided to walk back into town.

"This damn dungeon better be worth it, it cost us almost our entire funds!" said Draugann.

"It will grandma, don't worry," I said.

"Don't call me grandma, I am not your grandma!" complained the old woman.

"Haha, I missed Draugann whining… Everyone was so gloomy when you were sleeping." Said Benladann.

"I-I wasn't gloomy! I knew he would wake up…" said Draugann.

Tsundere Grandma…

The people were watching over us, not just me, but Benladann as well. After all, she was exuding the power of a Rank 3 Mana Core, her power was admirable, the two of us were not to mess up with it!

I carried Skadi and Uller with me as well, they were acting like normal weapons, but I would let them go wild when we get into the dungeon alone. Huginn and Muninn were calmly resting in each shoulder of Frost, they already had their tamed monster collar, so no one should tell me to not bring wild monsters inside. And certainly, they might try to take out their eyes with their sharp beaks if they are yelled at.

Yuki was still being looked a bit worse, but her Rank 2 Mana Core was still quite respectable by others, they only just found it very weird that a non-slave was so strong within the beast-kin tribe. I guess ice giant supremacy goes hard in these lands.

I do wonder though, where do beast-kin originate from? System, any clues?
