Chapter 112

Ash had to force himself to leave his bed, which was extremely hard because of the naked Amazon sleeping in it.

He had a last feel of her melons and left the room. He had some people to talk to before he left the next morning. First he went to Lira's house since it was very close. He checked before entering if she wasn't with a patient.

But she was alone doing something with a bunch of glass vials.

"Hey, " Ash greeted her.

"Oh, Mr. Blake, how are you? I have been wanting to talk to you again, I am glad you came here, come take a seat, " she said giving him a broad cheery smile like last time.

"Nice to see you too," said Ash taking the seat across her.

"So, how is living with Celia and Rebecca?" Lira asked all too interested.

"It's great, they have been really welcoming, " said Ash.

"Really? Well no surprise from Celia bit Rebecca didn't cut your head off Or something?" she asked.

"No, it seems intact, " said Ash.

"Hmm, you have potential then, you might just get chief to change her mind then, " said Lira.

"Yeah, about that, " Ash began.

"Oh, you need a dick enlarging pill, you made the right choice, I was telling you it's a must, " she cut in.

"No, my dick is perfectly fine, I am not going to use it, at least for the first time, but maybe just to try it for once just in, " Ash added slowly.

"Just in case, yeah I get it, don't worry, I have got just the thing, " said Lira. She looked around in her stack of vials and finally came up with a blue vial.

"It's basically a health elixir, it will increase your stamina and little bit strength, but it's been modified to all work down there, " she explained.

"So drink the whole bottle?" he asked.

"No, god knows, you'll be spotting a boner for the whole day, no, just take a sip, that should be good for around an hour, but only take it right before you are expecting something for sure, " she said.

"All right, got it, I won't be using it anyway," he said.

"So, you are going to the five- head meeting finally?" she asked.

"Yeah, we are leaving tomorrow, " he replied.

Ash next went to the riders camp he was going there every morning anyway so he felt it would be rude to not meet them before leaving, even Lufina, she would be much harder to handle later if he didn't talk to her now. He entered her tent, it was open all the time but no one dared to enter without asking permission first so it was weirdly private inside, which Lufina always took advantage of with him.

She was for the first time since he had seen her was on her table and working over some scrolls.

"Never seen you working before, I thought you couldn't write, " said Ash coming up behind her.

"Don't test me human, I am already not in a good mood, thanks to the five-head meeting, Yuri's gone and I am going to have to deal with her work till then while she is away having fun, " she said annoyed.

"Yeah, I am hoping it's fun, " said Ash.

"And I heard you had a little excursion in the forest in the morning, they were carrying that mud-rhinos corpse back, that wasn't small, I am glad that you didn't run away and fought good, otherwise I would have been pissed that you wasted my time, " she said.

"Now that you remind me, I heard something in the morning from Yuva, what is this elder village place?" he asked.

"You have been to the temple near the sacred waters right?" she asked.

"Yeah, Sasha always brought me there, " he replied.

"Yeah well I am surprised you didn't run in one of them, but after an Amazon puts down her weapon she goes to the elder village to sped the rest of her time, as you know we live longer than humans, and in our tradition we live half of our life in the worship of our war goddesses by living a life of a warrior, and if we have lived an honorable life we can live the rest of our life as we fit, most of us go to the village on the other side of the temple, " she explained.

"I was wondering where all the old amazons were, I was scared to ask, afraid you might just kill yourselves off Or something after getting old, " said Ash.

"Well first of all, we don't get old like you humans do, we look pretty much the same, only in the last few years before our souls leave us, and you haven't seen any children either, that's because the elders take care of them and raise them until they become adults, they are our guides and we respect them a lot, " she said.

"Wait, is your mother alive too?" he asked.

"Yeah, why?" Lufina asked looking up.

"It would be amazing to meet her, I wonder what she would be like?" Ash amused.

"You are definitely not meeting her, while I am alive, and anyway it's not possible, no man is allowed in the village, only they can come out if they want, and my mother hasn't left the village in a decade, " said Lufina warning him.

Ash laughed, he couldn't wait to see Lufina behave in front of her mother.

"All right you have had enough fun with me, now leave I have work to do, I will deal with you later when you will be back, " she said.

Ash left the tent, he wanted to see Ciara if possible too, but he had no idea where she would be at this time.

Rite had finally repaired the door to the hall of dreams. He had finally managed to stop his mind from panicking from Elder shadow's absence. Elder shadow had told him over the years very little about him and his past life but he had always mentioned how important of a responsibility he had on his shoulders, Rit completely believed that Elder shadow was their savior who will one day save the world from a terrible evil. It wasn't just the Elder's stories that had solidified this belief in him, he was rather sceptic of some of his stories even after all the respect and gratitude he had for him, because his stories were too far fetched. It was only after that day he had actually got a glimpse of that evil he was always talking about did he realised the actual threat that always loved near their world.

He went back to his hut and picked up things that hadn't been broken by the rock. He would have to stay in the smaller storage huts till then. All the other huts were storage for Elder shadow's stuff, mostly books and some locked chests he had no idea what was inside them. He had read some of the books, it was a favorite past time of him, but some books were in other languages and almost all of them were too complicated that it took him years to completely understand one.

It was there that he had read the legend of the four- headed throne. He had heard Elder shdow mention it a couple of times and he made it sound like it wasn't just a folklore.

If the girl and the boy succeded in getting him out of the mountain he would definitely try to find if it was real for himself. Between capturing mythical beasts and finding the throne he didn't know which was more impossible.
