It did not take long after the orders were passed for the mercenary army to gather up, once again ready for combat, nor did it take long for the tavern workers to pack up everything and ready for the castle to pack up.
But even once everything was ready, they did not depart immediately. It would be idiotic not to take advantage of the natural defense that the castle provided.
Instead, two small mercenary teams were sent out, each with a different task. The first team was meant to go check out the properties of the purple liquid that surrounded the island they were on, while the other team went and collected raw materials from the island.
Fenrir blessed both teams with his stealth abilities, so that they could easily avoid the army surrounding the castle, though for some reason Fenrir was acting very strangely. He seemed to be acting as if he had been captured by Little Blue, and quite a few mercenaries cheered to see him acting that way.
