Following the old village chief Lugo's footsteps, Saili slowly entered the tavern.

After greeting the two girls, she found a chair not far from them and sat down.

The black-haired girl couldn't understand what this line-up was about.

On the other side, Lureya, Lina, and Shami also didn't quite understand what was happening.

The three had just returned from the Maple Forest Clearing and had only been apart for a short while before being called over by the village chief.

"Miss Elf, Miss Hero, and Miss Mage. I have something very important to entrust to you."

The old village chief stood in front of the three girls, naturally ignoring Shami's presence.

Shami found it quite normal.

In such times, it would seem strange if the village chief spoke to him, as if he were the secret master of the village.

"Mr. Village Chief, what is it?"

It was the white-haired girl Lina who responded, sitting up straight.

"I've received a distress letter from another village. Their village has been invaded by the Demon Race, and the demons have also kidnapped the village chief's daughter."

Lureya and Lina's eyes turned to look at Shami behind the old village chief Lugo, their expressions questioning.

Don't look at me! You've always been the ones handling village invasions! Obviously, they're not talking about us, you fools!

Shami quickly glared back.

The two girls awkwardly looked away.

The magical girl Dammy furrowed her brows slightly, "Demon Race?"

"Yes. Because the village is quite remote, there's no way to contact the adventurer or mercenary guilds for help, so they can only ask for help from surrounding villages hoping to get assistance."

Lugo said, looking at the three of them.

"That old village chief is a friend of mine. He said that if his daughter could be rescued, he would be willing to give away the village's treasured artifact."

"The village treasure must be something remarkable..."

The white-haired girl muttered softly.

It's hard to say. What could a small village treasure be?

It could be an heirloom cloth armor that only adds +5 defense, or it could be a treasure map that marked a major treasure but only leads to a bandit hideout.

Shami thought silently for a while, then slowly shook his head.

A village's treasured artifact leaves no room for imagination.

"The demons haven't left yet and are still lingering near the village. I wonder if you'd be willing to go and defeat them, to save that village," the old village chief Lugo said earnestly.

"Just us?"

Lina pointed to herself, then looked at Lureya and Saili.

"Yes."

"Are you sure it's the Demon Race?"

"Only the Demon Race would do such things—not only kidnapping the village chief's daughter but also taking away the village's 15-year-old sow. I suppose the sow has met a tragic fate."

The old village chief Lugo shed tears.

Not worried about the village chief's daughter having a tragic fate, but more about the sow?! What have the previous Demon Race members done?

"Since Shami is familiar with the terrain around here, I plan to have Shami go with you," Lugo explained.

Lureya and Lina's eyes once again secretly glanced at Shami.

Shami gave an approving look.

Although the village treasure is not alluring at all, he's curious to see who would be doing evil under the guise of demons, ruining the Demon Race's image.

With the master's approval, Lureya, as the Demon Envoy, and Lina, one step away from becoming a Demon Envoy, agreed.

"Alright, we'll accept it."

Finally, only the opinion of the black-haired girl remained.

Saili gave a slight smile and agreed.

"I can certainly go as well. However, just one villager who knows the roads isn't quite enough. We should call Theo as well."

"Since the Miss Mage mentioned Theo, I'll go find him shortly."

The black-haired girl undoubtedly had her plans.

A rare opportunity like a mission to defeat the Demon Race—by bringing Theo along, she could undoubtedly observe more closely to investigate his identity.

The old village chief Lugo thanked the girls.

"I didn't expect us to become teammates so quickly, ladies."

Saili smiled at the two girls.

Lina blinked shyly, her small hands clenched into excited fists.

Indeed, this kind of team is almost like an adventurer's guild.

The most important thing is that this team not only includes a mage but also Miss Elf Lureya and Shami!

Lureya didn't have much emotional change, treating it as a trip.

With Lina present and a mage from Faerutia, any monster or demon would better stay away!

After some preparations.

Early next morning, a team officially set out, consisting of an Elf Race girl, a human Heroic Maiden, a human Mage girl, and two human village men.

The village chief found a horse-drawn carriage to serve as their transportation.

Apart from Theo, everyone else there basically didn't need it.

Shami and the other three had the Teleportation Gate, and Saili had Flying Magic.

But in the spirit of togetherness, they all got on the carriage.

The three girls sat inside the carriage, while Shami and Theo were outside controlling the horses.

"Hey, hey, Shami, am I dreaming here?"

Theo leaned close to Shami, whispering in shock, his eyes practically bulging out of their sockets.

"I can't believe I got to join this kind of adventure team as a member."

"Don't think too much, they're just using us to guide the way," Shami slowly explained.

But he noticed Theo next to him was acting strange, so he quickly nudged him.
