As Merlin finished giving out instructions to the kidnapped victims, some of which seemed confused at the mention of Madame Hartlace's name, the group eventually began moving down the road towards Macedonia.
As they made it out of the forest, Merlin received a notification telling him he had completed the requirements for the quest.
「You have completed the quest, "Intercepting the traffickers", rewards have been delivered.」
"Alright, works for me." He muttered, thinking he'd have to do a lot more. "I guess that counts as getting away undetected, masks are pretty convenient."
Merlin started running around to all the wagons, freeing the horses that were still alive before resting his hand on one of the wagons and chanting a spel.
「Skill ⟪Ignite⟫ Activated.」
He continued to the other wagons, waiting for ignite's ten second cooldown before casting it again and again on the other two carts.
