“It’s easier to tell when the person following us is someone familiar. Crymillia.”
Crymillia walked out into the light and faced Azazel. “Lucifer, we’ve only dated for like, a few months.”
“Your dad was much sharper than I thought.”
“We’re beings of eternal life.” Crymillia started getting closer to Azazel. “While he’s gone, don’t you think we could… Have some fun? Like we used to.” She said with a seductive voice.
Azazel pushed her away. “I don’t have time for that. Besides, you don’t even mean that.”
Crymillia chuckled. “I would if you accepted it. Anyway, what brings you here?”
“The same reason as you. I assume you were told of this by an old woman.” Azazel said with a questioning tone.

The villagers were led by Simon into battle. Matthew was also with them. They were running towards the arena together.Simon relayed some order to the other villagers. Matthew still did not understand what they were saying. He could only figure something out from their gestures and tone of speech.Not long after, Matthew and the villagers came across two people in black outfits. One was a human and the other was an elf.Matthew recognised them. Jovanic, an elven warrior mage, and Marlin, a Supreme class mage. These were indeed formidable opponents. He felt stupid for even asking Draco about his chances.Jovanic spoke to them in a different language which sounded like a warning. Matthew thought that he was talking nonsense. That was until Simon actually talked back to him. Matthew was stunned and confused.“Ancient elven language. Not too different from modern elven, but the
A few minutes before the Hunters arrived…Pix flew in through the slightly opened door. She frantically looked around the house with what little vision she had. She saw another open door not far and flew straight for it.There, she saw a red haired man sleeping on the side of the bed while another man with a moustache was sleeping on it.“What the heck happened here?” She asked herself while she glanced between the men. Then she shook her head before attempting to wake them up.“Hey, hey! Wake up! Wake up!” She shook Shim Boon’s shoulder. Then she tried slapping repeatedly on his face but he still did not wake up.“Argh! Why won’t you just get up already!” She slapped harder and harder, then a blade was suddenly put beside her.“What are you doing here?” Bran asked.&ldquo
“Bran?”“Brother.”The brothers stared at each other for a while. Metil slowly and painfully stood up and walked closer to Bran.“I’ve missed you Bran. How have you been?” Metil had a very happy and relieved face while he spoke.“Better than you are right now.” Bran still had a sad tone.“Haha, man am I happy to see you.” Metil happily ran towards Bran.“Why did you leave?” Bran asked seriously.Metil was a bit shocked and stopped in his tracks. “Huh?”“Mom and dad were so worried.”Metil sighed angrily. “Again with those two. I’m just trying to help our family. Why is that so hard for them to understand?”“Dad told you to just help with the farm, but y
A few minutes ago within the chamber where the world tree crystal resides, Crymillia and Azazel were clashing repeatedly. Matthew did not make a move and kept watching. He was so amazed at the fight that he completely forgot what he came here for in the first place.He looked at the ball of roots where the crystal was. He glanced up at the fighters for a second before he slowly moved towards the roots. Just like before, the roots opened up but only enough for a fist to fit through.Matthew assumed that the tree wanted him to take it. He made sure Crymillia and Azazel were not looking his way before reaching his hand into the roots to grab the crystal and run away.To his surprise, he got sucked into the void of the tree’s consciousness again. He did not expect this to happen and panickedly looked around.“You mustn't worry about my well being.” Yggdrasil’s voice came from all
Dawn broke and the sun was rising already. Sunlight shone upon the village. Many of the villagers were being treated by fairies and traditional remedies. The Hunters were also treated.Samon was checking on every single villager, making sure they were doing fine. Belle was hovering close to Matthew who was sitting under a tree. He barely sustained any injuries so he decided to just rest somewhere else, away from the others.“So you decided to let them go?” Belle asked without looking at Matthew.Matthew took some time to keep watching the villagers before answering. “Yeah. At first I didn’t agree with Yggdrasil but… He saved me from myself. I owe him that at least.”“Still, we don’t know what they want to do with the crystal.”“True, but I gave it some thought. They themselves don’t have anything they want to do w
Bran was walking towards where Matthew was sitting. By the time he got close, Matthew was already standing up but he was still talking to the fairy queen.Bran kept walking until he was only a few meters away to call out to Matthew. “Hey, Matthew!”Matthew immediately turned his attention to Bran. “Oh, hey.”“Sorry for interrupting.”“No, it’s fine. We were just about done. What is it?”“The chief just asked if you’d join for breakfast.” Bran said.“Oh, sure. Be there in a sec.” Matthew replied then he continued talking to Belle.Bran thought about eavesdropping but he only heard what Matthew said. So he just decided to wait until Matthew was done.Not too long after, Matthew was done talking and Belle was escorted by two fairies away.
The tables were set and the food was served. Everyone took a seat and listened to the short speech from Samon. The Hunter simply stayed quiet since they didn’t understand, except for one part of his speech.“And to thank these young Hunters for helping our village.” Samon said while glancing at the Hunters. He continued a little bit more before he sat down and the villagers clapped.After they were done, everyone started to dig into their dishes. They were having grilled lamb chops, sauteed fish, mashed potato and also salad. The villagers awed together as they ate. Matthew was also breathtaken and he kept stuffing his mouth.“Wow! It’s so delicious!” Sasha excitedly said.Salma, Sasha’s mother, pointed to Izz and said something.Sasha replied, “really? You’re an amazing chef!”Izz was clueless that
Dawn broke on the same day that Matthew, Izz, Shim Boon and Bran were returning, only at a different location. The Hunters gathered at the location looked in the same direction.Ryuka, Ajax and Rain stood at the frontmost of the Hunters. The colossal toad was moving towards their way.“It’ll get here soon.” Ryuka said.“And it doesn’t seem to be stopping.” Rain said.“Should we proceed as planned then?” Ajax asked.“Once it gets in range of the plan, we will.” Ryuka answered as he turned around and dispersed into the crowd.Ajax looked at Ryuka for a second, then at the toad again. “How long until then?”“Not long. We’ll have time for breakfast. Come on, let’s get some chow.” Rain tapped on Ajax’s shoulder.“Sur
