Despite the goblin attack, it seemed like everyone recovered from it pretty quickly and we were on the road once again.
Heck, even the guy who got shot by the arrow didn't seem too bothered like this was something that had happened to him before.

"It seems like there has been an increase in monster activities over the past few years, Mistress," She answered me before I could even ask my question.
"Eh? There's more monsters?"
Katsuki nodded before leaning closer to whisper, "Some believe that Goddess Hiandoca might be planning to plunge the World into chaos with her monsters… But we know it's mostly because of the presence of Off-Worlders."
Right, there was that discussion back then and Hiandoca also said so herself that the mana of the World increased because of our presence so that led to more Dungeons and also more monsters…
