"Mission has been archived, recording and analyzing relevant language data."

From this moment on, Shenlan began to collect, record, and analyze the language data here, assembling and organizing it into a new language.

Although different languages vary greatly, their principles are quite similar, so integration is not a difficult task for Shenlan.

"Hmm... which direction can I leave this place?" Herag asked.

Ed, upon hearing him speak in a language he couldn't understand, realized that Herag must be a foreigner, leading to the language barrier.

He stood up and first put away his Black Sword, indicating he had no hostility.

Ed's Black Sword is his Awakened Ability, so he can dispel it when not needed.

Seeing this, Herag also slung his Long Blade onto his back.

He thought for a moment, pointed outside the forest, and gestured in a few directions.

Ed watched for a while, roughly understanding what Herag meant.

He guessed that Herag must have gotten lost in the Silver Frost Forest, thus asking how to get out.

After walking a few steps in one direction, Ed turned back, smiling and waving hand to signal Herag to follow him.

Herag understood he was guiding him, so he followed along.

Thinking for a moment, he stretched out his hand and opened his palm in front of Ed, offering a bottle of White Sage Potion.

Ed took the potion from Herag's large palm, looking at Herag with some confusion.

Herag made a drinking motion to show him how to use it.

This young man was severely injured, and without treatment, he might not last long before collapsing on the road.

Once Ed understood, he didn't hesitate, pulled out the wooden stopper, and drank the White Sage Healing Potion.

He didn't believe Herag would harm him.

Ed was already severely injured and close to death; he only wanted to guide Herag out before he died.

Even in his prime, he couldn't be a match for Herag, so there was no need to use poisoning against himself.

After drinking the White Sage Healing Potion, Ed immediately felt the potion's miraculous effect.

The injuries within him were healing rapidly, so fast that he was astounded, having never seen a potion with such efficacy in his life.

"This must be a treasure!"

Ed had only heard about such treasures in some legendary stories from wandering poets.

He initially thought those were just legends, but today he unexpectedly experienced it firsthand.

This level of treasure was just handed to him, and he felt deep gratitude towards Herag once again.

"Getting so excited over a White Sage Healing Potion..."

From Ed's reaction, Herag gleaned that the level of medicine here wasn't very advanced.

At least within the level this boy had encountered, there were no good medicines.

After consuming the White Sage Healing Potion, Ed's injuries immediately stabilized and began to heal quickly.

His physical Constitution was already good, so combined with the White Sage Healing Potion, the recovery was doubly effective, leaving no threat to his life.

Once the injuries stabilized, Ed led the way.

He was so familiar with the area that he guided Herag out of the Silver Frost Forest without any pauses.

Herag recorded the entire journey mentally, realizing that without Ed, he would've spent a lot more Time trying to find his way out.

With Ed leading the way, they emerged in just three hours.

In the distance from the Silver Frost Forest, lay a small town.

The town was surrounded by wooden walls, some sections were piled with stones.

Herag looked at this roughly built wall, feeling it was useful only against wild animals.

For Demons, such a wall was just ornamental.

Ed led Herag toward Falling Leaves Town, and just as they passed a corner, a bearded uncle emerged from a bush.

The bearded uncle looked cautiously at Herag, "Ed, who is this?"

"Oh, Uncle Hank, he's a foreigner, and a strong Exorcist. He just saved me in the Silver Frost Forest. The new Demon in Silver Frost Forest was defeated by him, so everyone can safely go hunting now. By the way, Uncle Hank, send someone in to retrieve the Demon's meat."

"It's a big tiger, with plenty of meat to last everyone for a long time," Ed said.

After Ed spoke, Hank still cautiously eyed Herag.

Primarily because Herag's stature was intimidating—over four meters tall, dressed in full Dark Gold Armor with a massive Long Blade slung behind him, Hank had to be cautious.

But since Ed vouched for him, Hank couldn't very well turn Herag away.

At least for now, Herag hadn't shown any hostility.

Provoking him recklessly would only bring trouble to Falling Leaves Town.

More importantly, they needed to retrieve the Demon's meat from Silver Frost Forest; it was food.

Most Demon's meat is edible, not only filling but also granting strength.

While ordinary people can't absorb Demon Aura like Exorcists, eating Demon's meat can still strengthen their bodies.

However, Demon's meat was precious and typically reserved for the town's young and strong.

These individuals maintain the town's stability and are its future hope.

After Ed explained these things to Hank, Hank followed them back to Falling Leaves Town and organized a group to retrieve the Demon's meat from where Ed indicated.

Herag's imposing figure in the town naturally drew a lot of attention.

Initially, the townspeople were a bit fearful, but seeing Ed brought him and noting how Herag didn't intend to harm anyone, their fear subsided.

Some children even bravely approached Herag, looking up at him in awe and marveling continuously.

One little boy even directly hugged Herag's leg and started climbing up.

This scene startled Ed, as this was a powerful Exorcist, and provoking him could have dire consequences.

"Magee! Get down!" Ed shouted, moving to get the boy down.

Herag chuckled, gently lifted the little boy by the collar with his fingers, and carefully set him aside.

"I'm sorry, sir!" Ed hurried over to apologize, pulling Magee along to apologize as well.

Magee, seeing Ed so serious, realized his mistake, nose bubbling as he bowed in apology.

Herag waved it off, indicating it was no big deal.

He certainly wouldn't get angry with a three-year-old child.

After witnessing this, the other townspeople gained a better impression of Herag.

Previously on edge, they relaxed, no longer worried that Herag was a malicious person.

After all, how could someone bad be so gentle with children?
