The meadow

Alan also noded in agreement and looked at the beast. After a few purr and growling, Alan looked back at Harry and started to relay the beasts words.

" She felt our pressence 5 days ago and was waiting for our arrival, even after this time when we didn't went inside, she became impatient and came to meet us instead."

"Ah... That's how it is, well girl, unfortunately we can't come inside this time. You see.... " Harry pointed at Lilly, Irene and Rodrick. "We are training them and can't get them to face powerfull beasts. They are not yet that powerful themselves."

The beast was exited for some reason, and started to purr at Harry exitedly. Harry was confused beyond anything and looked at Alan. " She is saying that, she is helping her own cub to hunt also, they all can learn together. The place where she is taking the cub is not far from here and there is also a small pond with sweet water to dring if you feel thirsty."

"Deal then, let follow her guys." Harry said enthusiastically. Alan noded at the Panther and she started to walk back from which direction she came and the cub jumped down from Alan's arms and started following her. Everyone else also followed the beast.

After an hour of walking, they arrived at an entrance which was naturally created by a couple of trees. Harry a6md the six men looked at each other in surprise. "Restriction magic!!!" Harry said in wonder.

They crossed the natural arch way without any issue and so do the two beasts. The scene before them took their breath away. Spread before them was a picturesque meadow, blanketed with a vibrant array of flowers. At the edge of the meadow, a mist covered small pond occasionally glistened in the rays of sunlight that penetrated the clouds and the mist covering the mountain range, reflecting the surrounding beauty. Behind the pond, a towering cliff rose more than 200 meters into the sky, adding a dramatic backdrop to the serene landscape.

So beautiful, the girls were mesmerized by the scene infront of them. No one could rebuke them at this. The place was beautiful beyond their imagination.

"Do other beasts come here?" Alan asked the Panther curiously because the place looked ao serene and calm. There was no trace of any beasts.

The Black Panther purred for few seconds and after hering that, Alan noded in satisfaction.

What....??? Almost everyone asked at the same time.

"It seems that, the only carnivorous beast that can enter this meadow is her own bloodline. Other than her, only small games and deers and other herbivores animals can come in to drink water and rest. She says only for a few weeks her cub can practice hunting here with small animals. After that it can't, as blood shed is not allowed here, in this meadow.

She is saying we can stay here and go out to train. The girls felt happy to stay somewhere so beautiful.

Three months passed in a flash....

Rodrick had improved his skills by leaps and bounds. Lilly and Irene had also improved a lot.

They were made to study herb Lore, medicines and healing arts by the boys, to the disappointment of Harry after inital month. When asked, Alan explained, " Master Harry, its sufficient for them to learn the basics of combat arts. But they are now at a stage where they can easily handle a dozen of men in combat. These girls have to excel in healing not combat arts and that is their dream also."

When Harry looked at the girls with a questioning gaze they noded solemnly. After that Harry took a back seat when it comes to the girls training.

Unfortunately Rodrick got the complete attention of Harry because of this and had to go under severe training. He now started to understand how these young men had their life made miserable. Fortunately for him, the training was yielding him great results.

Alan started practicing his teleportation magic at night times, away from the three who still hadn't known about his new ability. He had started to make great progress.

Initally he was able to travel alone long distances. Then he began to carry corpses of the beasts they killed for their meals. After that, he began to carry live animals and beasts.

After a month of trail and errors, he started to travel with his friends. One person at a time initally, then started including an additional member. By the end of third month to the surprise of everyone, he was able to teleport all six of them. He was able to do this thanks to the Black Panther who had agreed to keep an eye on the three humans safety in their absence.
