After landing in the clearing near the City, they changed again to Tharn’s Unicorns and made them walk along the path until the main road.
At the gates, the guards greeted them, surprised by the rides like everyone else was, as they entered.
They left the Unicorns in front of the Guild, and upon entering, the few Adventurers there cheered them by raising their glasses, and the cheers increased when Tharn asked Kishar to give them another round of hydromel.
Synesia, Osman, Muranu, and Kek were seated at a
Meanwhile, Iris was inside a cave, hidden in a small hole in a wall, looking down and grinning, listening to the conversation between the two men she followed and their bosses. The man with a scar was smiling as he said, “As you can see, things progressed on his side. It probably would be a good idea to do as he did, and work more in the ‘Babilndan Theocracy’ than in the ‘Kingdom of Heszils’, considering that the Church in the Theocracy has that stupid law against burning to ashes the dead, and-“ One of the two men that were seated at a table immediately interrupted him, with their heads covered by the hoods of their cloaks. “We will be the judge of that. Do your work, the one that we pay you to do, and that is information gathering and spying. Nothing else. The rest is up to us, Necromancers.” The scarred man immediately looked down and went silent. His partner tried to change the subject and said, “Of course, boss. And since you mentioned that, do you need us to go check things in
Tharn offered his hand for a handshake, which Omarosa grabbed with a smile. “A contract it is, then. Rusalka, you are going to work with Omarosa to make new sets of jewellery. With your skills, I think you won’t have any problems creating a few drawings that I have already made.”The smiling octopus-girl put one hand over the hands of Tharn and Omarosa and squeezed them gently. She then looked curiously at the list of tools that Tharn gave to the young Cathra girl, and next, at the drawings of necklaces, bracelets, earrings, and rings he had on another set of papers.While Omarosa w
Near dinner time, Tharn left the shop, with the two girls so focused on their work that they waved at him without even looking back.When he entered the Guild, a familiar voice shouted from a table nearby, “Finally he appears! Come to me and praise the mighty Iris Thunderclover, for I have arrived with great news! And a plan! An amazing, outstanding plan!”He joined the others at the table and smiled at the hovering Fairy in front of his face, and said, “It seems your wings have fully grown. Does that mean you don’t need my help anymore?&rdquo
In the morning, and after a quick breakfast, they all left the City with Iris smiling all the way while seated on Tharn’s shoulder, happily remembering everything they did during the night with his cute octopus-girl.The flight to the range of mountains in the ‘Kingdom of Heszils’ didn’t take long, with them flying the three Anubis that Tharn summoned to take them there.Following Iris’ advice, they landed in the middle of a forest, in a field of grass, and changed to Synesia’s bears, with a fourth bear going ahead, clearing a path along the forest for them to pass and trying to make as little noise as possible, but that implied not breaking too many trees, making the ride to the mountains take longer than expected.After exiting the forest, they faced the edge of a rough mountain, and Iris pointed to the entrance she used.There was an Undead hiding on the right side, behind a tree, but she flew to him undetected, and vaporised him, signalling the others to join her behind the tree.
The Catkind man gulped when he noticed the increased squeezing on his neck by a powerful tentacle and asked, “What... is the meaning of this? Your boss is betraying the Necromancer Brotherhood, is that it? He wants everything for himself so that the Leader favours him?”“No, this was all our doing. We also killed him a few days ago and took everything he had. You two are fools for believing that Leader of yours will be on your side in the end. When he starts absorbing the Magic of this World, he will kill anyone that helped him, along with every living being in this World. It won’t be the first time he does that. I have been following him from World to
Noticing the doubt in the others, Istar asked, “Why my parents’ farm and not somewhere else?”“Because with the Old Elementals you left there, your family will for sure increase the size of their fields. My Anubis can make the hole to bury all these crates, then your Elementals can plant the field, and no one will suspect that the soil was messed with and something could be hidden underneath.”“I see... Not a bad idea, actually... My siblings already sa
When they landed in the clearing in the forest near the City of Elkenore, Anubis regurgitated the bags he had inside of him, making a pile on the ground.After Tharn thanked him and made him disappear, Istar summoned her white flying lion, Breeze, the Frost Force Old Elemental, and told him to swallow the bags, receiving a frown and a low growl that made her rub his snout and say, “Come on, help me with this! We can’t carry all this to the City! Don’t munch anything, just swallow. We need what is inside the bags intact!”The white lion gently
Tharn got up while the Guild Master was still gulping after that direct threat to his well-being from a furious-looking Fairy, and he said, “If you excuse me, I am going to drink something. The others are going to return after delivering the food to the Church, because of the Tournament. We all spent a lot of Magic fighting all those Undeads and the other creatures that those two Necromancers created, but I think we have more than enough Magic for a Tournament.”Kishar got up as well and asked, “Are you going to participate as well? Because I am kind of counting on you to make the pairings.”“Latest Chapter
