The Succubus City Lord was very surprised After all, Marvin returned so soon after departing

But she didn't find it odd to see the girl that he brought back with hiht, Marvin didn't wake Anna and the others, ere already asleep, instead returning to White River Valley on Madeline's ic carpet

On the way, Isabelle rereatly, and Madeline also wasn't the same Madeline as before The two didn't talk to each other at all as they travelled

Marvin only asked about what had happened after he left, and Madeline dutifully answered,

Thanks to the foundations laid by Daniela, the entire Sanctuary was in good working condition, including River Shore City, the Valley itself, as well as the newly established Sword Harbor

Under the protection of the Dark Knights, Marvin's new orders were implemented strictly, and no talent in White River Valley asted The able were ar so the pressure on the Sanctuary

As for the refugees whose fighting capabilities were lacking, so caed for the instructors to receive very significant rewards They gained twice as ular warrior each week, spurring thei ca the militia were in their pri abilities

Marvin did not expect the as they could cooperate to get rid of sos

At the sarow a lot faster when hunting than aiting in the safety of the Sanctuary

Froh they didn't have the Essence Absorption Systeer their potential

Having top-tier forces wasn't so White River Valley was concerned about What Marvin needed right now for the territory was to strengthen itssquadrons, as well as to create a knight troop As for the last matter, before Marvin made the final decision, potential recruits were screened by the knights from River Shore City
