Several days passed in a blur.

At the Star Peak Outpost, the entire area was eerily quiet. No one was mining, and no one was patrolling, as if the place was deserted.

Of course, this didn't mean that everyone at the Star Peak Outpost had retreated; they were all still recovering from their injuries.

After all, the battle with the Mad Emperor had left them severely wounded, and it would take more than a few days to heal.
