Labo's face beamed as he remembered the moment of escape.
"Everything went white, and all I could see was Casena running. That was the moment I realized that I was born for Casena, and only her."
Then Lati joined the conversation.
"Me, too! Casena saved us, she's the goddess! Lati will do anything for the goddess!"
Labo and Lati were Storage Keeper brothers from the Steel Trust Union, and they came to Nebula Island to protect the king's relics that Resistance excavated.
They were extraordinary. They could hide everything into their little storage with a single touch, including the newly discovered relics. Resistance soldiers were very fond of these two.
Then Arkeums found about the brothers as well. They took notice that every treasure the Resistance found was being stored in a single storage, which only the brothers could open. So they decided to kidnap the brothers to get hold of all the treasure that Resistance found.
On that day, the demonic beast Exodus landed on Nebula Island. Many adventurers came to the island to hunt down the beast, while most of the Resistance elite soldiers were away beyond the portal.
Then, a fire started in the mostly empty Resistance camp. Remaining Resistance soldiers and adventurers did their best to put out the fire.
Lati and Labo stayed near the storage during the commotion, as the Union strictly forbade them to leave their posts. Then Lati felt someone was creeping behind him, but blacked out before realizing what was happening.
Meanwhile, when Casena heard the news of fire, she thought of Arkeum. She looked around, and realized that the Storage Keepers were gone.
When Lati and Labo woke up with black hoods covering up their faces, they were already at the Arkeum Post. They blamed themselves, sitting in a cold cage. Then they heard a scream.
"The Resistance on the dock! They are here for the goblins!"
"No, the hill! They are up on the hill!"
"Then we'll go to both the spots! Soldiers, move to the rally point!"
The Arkeum commander snapped at confused soldiers. Then she came into the cave and talked to the soldiers who were guarding the Storage Keepers.
"I'll take the goblins now. I'm moving them to the safer location."
"Sir? But our order was..."
"Silence! Now, go out and hunt down the Resistance!"
Scared soldiers hurried out of the cave.
The commander approached the cage, and smashed the lock with a sword.
"Lati! Labo! It's me, Casena. We have to go!"
The commander took off the helm, and it really was Casena. She dropped the heavy armor, installed explosives around the cave, held the brothers' hands, and started to run.
"It's going to blow! Careful!"
Then everything exploded with a flash. The shock stumbled Casena, but she soon regained her composure and jumped on to the Magic Circle with goblin brothers. Their visions blurred, and they were back at their own camp in an instant. People cheered, while Casena's warm hands were still holding the brothers' hands.
