Chapter 178: Scared Them Off

Doug looked at the group that afternoon when Hawk confirmed that there was still nothing to fight. He had eliminated a small group of Goblins with a fireball while scouting, but their zone was otherwise barren.

"Do you think that we actually scared the monsters away? Most monsters will avoid the territory of a more powerful monster, so it's possible that either Hawk or Rae have scared them off. No offence intended to Thor, but the Lightning Cerro isn't known for being dangerous enough to chase others out of their territory." The cleric asked, while sweeping his dark curls back from his face.

"It is possible. We have patrolled this same area for so long that there should be a scent trail around the perimeter. If they sense that we're that much more powerful than they are, they will naturally avoid the area." Danni agreed.
