Holy Maiden

"I have some questions"

Jason said.

"What is it?"

Charlotte asked.

"About that blood you used, why?"

Jason wanted to know why to enter this land one has to give blood.

"Ah that, offering our blood is like signing a pact with them, during the time of our stay here we cannot do anything that would cause harm to this land or its citizen"

Charlotte said.

"What happens if something really happens?"

Jason asked.

"Well I am going to die, the ones who signed this pact offer themselves to be killed if they do something"

Charlotte said.

"And what if I am the reason for the cause of the trouble?"

Jason asked.

"I will be the one to die since I brought you here, that is why people don't do what I just did unless they trust their partner and hand over their life in their hands"

Charlotte said.

"Oh, I see"

Jason nodded as they finally came in front of the main city, he saw two giant statues of griffons in front of the gate covering it with their huge wings, seeing this Jason is surprised, he could see the magic around the griffon statues and could tell that they are not normal.

As they got right in front of it, the two statues started to move as its eyes seem to have come to life, they suddenly started to look like real eyes as they took a look at Charlotte and Jason, they noticed that Charlotte has been here before as her data has been recorded and the one with her is an unknown person.

They sent carefully scanned Jason before finally moving their wings away from the gate revealing the path to enter the city.

"Come let's go"

Charlotte said and walked into the city and Jason followed her, as they entered the city they attracted many eyes on them, some didn't care as they are used to outsiders visiting their land, some are still disdainful of them while others are curious.

"Some of them really hate visitors, don't they"

Jason said.

"Indeed, it was one of the rules before the supernatural committee forced them to do so, but their ancestors had already instructed them in their holy book to do whatever it takes to avoid wars and if that means to even change their own rules. Since they had no other option the elders had to change it, they wrote a new rule after that, signing a treaty with the supernatural committee"

Charlotte said.

"These people are really old fashioned but I like it"

Jason said and laughed.

"Indeed, if they became advanced, this beautiful landscape would turn into a disaster"

Charlotte supported his thought.

"Ok, now let's find this girl"

Jason said.

"Do you have her name?"

"I think her name is Else, but I don't know if she is the granddaughter or great-granddaughter of that old woman"

Jason said.

"Well we have something, let's ask around, the locals should be able to help us, the people in this town never have the same name, even if they did they would put a number behind it"

Charlotte said.

"Good, it makes things much easier for us to find that girl"

Jason said.

Walking around the town Jason saw many things he had never seen or experienced before, he also found out that there are plants and herbs in this world that is related or contains magic which can help him in many things.

They then soon arrived at a restaurant where most of the town people hangout, this is also the perfect place for Jason to hear some interesting things that might be going around the town.

He and Charlotte entered the restaurant which grabbed everyone's attention that was inside, they stared at Jason and Charlotte wondering what these two outsiders are up to, while the men in the restaurant didn't think much of Jason they did enjoy Charlotte's figure with their lustful eyes.

Since they don't have many outsiders visiting the land it's rare to see such a beautiful outsider between them.

Jason and Charlotte sat down on an empty table as they looked around.

"This is not so bad"

Jason said.

"Indeed, I came here before, the food here is very good and it goes great with the drinks they offer here"

Charlotte said.

"Then you can take my order as well"

Jason said and closed his eyes as he tried to hear what the town people are talking about, to his disappointment most of these idiots are men talking about how hot and sexy Charlotte looked and how they wanted to fuck her, he sighed and continued hearing.

While he was doing so the waiter walked towards their table and looked at Charlotte as he stood there stunned, the waiter looks to be around 17 to 18 years old so seeing someone as beautiful as Charlotte made him freeze on the spot.

"You useless idiot, take the customers order"

Too bad for the waiter as he heard his boss scold him from behind, he snapped out of his trance and got embarrassed and bowed his head but he still stole some quick glance at her breast.

"Mam, may I take your order?"

He asked.

"Sure"

Charlotte said and ordered things she thought Jason might like and sent the waiter away, she watched Jason while his eyes are closed, her eyes filled with love for him, no matter what he did seemed very pleasing to her, Jason couldn't hear anything interesting, he only heard about men talk about sex and the few women that were present in the restaurant were with their boyfriends or husbands as they flirted with each other.

He sighed and opened his eyes in disappointment, he thought that he would be able to find something here but he found none.

After a while, the waiter came back with everything that Charlotte ordered.

"You, how well do you know about the things happening in the town?"

Jason asked the waiter.

"I know about a few things"

The waiter said.

"Tell me, this is my first time coming here, I want to hear something interesting"

Jason said.

"Nothing major has happened at this time of the season but there was something huge that happened about two and half months ago"

The waiter said.

"Huh? two and a half months, tell me what happened?"

Jason asked as he realized that the time of this incident that this boy is talking about is very close to that old woman's death.

"Well, the holy maiden's great grandmother died and she inherited all her memories which allowed her to unlock her true potential in learning ancestral magic, with the holy maiden out land will prosper once again"

The waiter said, as he talked about this holy maiden his voice was filled with awe and respect.

Hearing this Jason was surprised.

"What is the name of this holy maiden?"

Jason asked.

"Her holiness name is Else".
