Returning to Ximu Town, it was already late at night. The feline, accustomed to early to bed and early to rise, had dozed off several times on Ethan's shoulder during the journey. Just as they approached the town, a thunderous roar startled her awake, causing her fur to stand on end.
"Ethan, my dear brother, Ethan! I knew you were still alive!"
The first to greet him was Hagrid, carrying a gas lamp, lurking like an executioner at the town entrance. The moment he saw Ethan, he excitedly rushed over.
His large body ran like a black bear, "I knew you wouldn't die that easily!"
Hagrid had heard from the guards who returned later about the situation outside the mine. They said the guild leader, Talon, had mutated into a monster, everyone scattered, and the scene was extremely dangerous.
He counted the people; everyone had returned except for Ethan.
"The rebellion of the Haywood Miners is related to the Evil God's sacrifice; I went to Gear City to report the situation."
