It was already evening when I'm back to the den. Looking at the pile of bloodied clothes and human corpses, or what seemed to be the remains of it, I could guess what happened.

"Humans came?" (MC)
"Un." (BF)

I knew it.

"Did you kill all of them?" (MC)
"One ran away." (BF)
"I see." (MC)

This was bad. Adventurer had found this place and many more would come. We needed to move away from here, ASAP. We just got here yesterday and we already had to move out. Those damn adventurers! A part of me wanted to stay and kill the adventurer that came, but while I could handle the low-level adventurer, if the high-level adventurer came it would be dangerous.

I and my pride were still weak, we needed to stay low and grew strong before we showed our might to the world. I quickly decided where to go, the goblin's cave.

"All of you, get ready! We'll leave in a moment!" (MC)
"Alpha, this one wounded." (???)

I felt anger in my heart when I saw the wounded wolf, he was a member of my pride and he was harmed. I went to my hole and took all my stuff in there. I walked back to the wounded wolf and looked at the arrow lodged in his shoulder. From what I saw on TV and the internet, I shouldn't pull out the head of the arrow since it could cause bleeding but thinking of the wolf robust body and the potion I had.

"It's gonna hurt, tough it out." (MC)

I quickly pulled out the arrow, blood gushed out of the wound. The wolf yelp loudly, I opened one of the potions and fed the wolf half of it, the other half I poured onto the wound. In a matter of minute, the wound closed.

The wolf stood up and said he could run albeit with a little pain. I nodded and ordered the wolves to move out. I looked at the bloodied clothes and wore one of the pants, other than the tears there was no problem with it. It fit comfortably. I kept the other clothes just in case.

"Anyone strong carried the cub with you, we need to cover a lot of ground." (MC)

I picked up two of the injured in each arm and the last one was on my shoulder like a bag of rice as I said that, the beautiful fox carried two cubs with her tails. Thankfully there were only five cubs that were still young, the other three were carried by the other wolves. While the three injured wolves could walk, they were too slow.

The den and the goblin's cave was not that far apart nor they were near, but I purposely took long and circling way to reach the cave. It may or may not help cover our tracks but it was better to try everything.

The trip was over six hours long, I hoped it help us a little. The wolves were truly tough, the old and pregnant could keep running for hours with small breaks in between. The combatant wolves could run longer without any breaks. The sky was completely dark, I conjured floating balls of fire to light the way. The dark cave looked like the mouth of a beast, intending to swallow us. Kind of funny the place seemed dangerous and used to now become a shelter. Surprisingly, the corpse of the goblins was less than I remember. I guess some monsters ate it. But there were still quite of it left and the smell was pretty bad, the wolves were having it the worst as they have a sharp nose.
