Evolution: Conqueror - Chapter 123
Blackmoon Town,
Lord’s Manor,
Torug’s POV,
“Time is running out… another God is dead, all this must be Ragol’s plan to pressure the Neutral side’s hand” walking out of the inner parts of my Manor, I stepped into the throne Hall.
because of the weather outside, the hall was dimmer than usual, the fire flickered seductively at the fireplace without any care.
Alpha laid by the door, while covering his snout, a look of annoyance could be seen on his face as he glares outside.
When I took a step further, his ears twitched for a bit before he looked in my direction. after observing for a second or two, he closed his eyes.
His actions were all smooth and vivid in my eyes, all this made me chuckle silently as I approached him.
“You must really hate the blood rain” I say with a laugh, he obviously closed his eyes because he didn’t want us to go anywhere.
The Wolf opened it’s eyes but continued to dodge my eyes.
“Alpha?” I coax while stroking it’s fur, only for him to snort in disdain.
Unfortunately, his tail does not lie, it swayed behind playfully.
“Fine, we won’t be going anywhere today” I suddenly say as I stood up for my throne, the wolf opened it’s eyes in shock, probably wondering why I changed my mind.
Before it could say anything, Moz walked in from the door. for some reason, I found that action strange, after all, she usually just pops up next to me and I had already become numb to it…
“My Chief” she bows her head a little and touched her forehead with her palm, like a wife greets her husband.
She then smiled and said,”everything is ready now but the wolves are acting strangely…”.
She then waited for my response before adding something,” Torrelsav suggested to wait, perhaps the blood rain is the problem but Nazu suggests we use this opportunity now that everywhere smells like blood…”
“and who do you agree with?” I asked.
“Nazu” She says without missing a beat.
Silence followed her answer, as I went into deep thought about this matter “…”
‘Are the wolves really unusable now and what are our chances of winning without them…No shouldn’t be a problem for a small camp, what if it were big?… wouldn’t matter too much either’.
‘The rain isn’t helping matters as I have no idea when it would end, the length of the rain determines the God’s strength when he or she was alive, is there a side effect to the rain? considering the reaction of the wolves or does it have something to do with the law used by the dead God.’
“Dead God” I muttered, I found that strange and ridiculous but yeah, even Gods die.
No this must be done today, the purple moon is only two days away and there’s the meeting with the one eyed Haran’.
Moz left a nod as my eyes lingered on body much longer than It would have several days ago.
After watching her leave, a sigh escaped my lips as I said, “You know, this isn’t normal”.
“what isn’t?” a female voice asked as someone crawled out from the dark parts of the bamboo roof beams.
a purple haired woman stood before me, wrapped in what looked like a pyjamas but was obviously made of her own webs.
“Interesting”I muttered, This could be used for trading and so much more. at some point, Janetta was already in front of me as she traced her fingers playfully on the throne.
“I thought you said you found where to live”I asked with a sigh, I could almost guess what she meant back then.
“Indeed, I have…up there”
“…”
“I want to go with you guys” her voice sounded playful.
She raised an eyebrow in wonder and I elaborated,” the church brought someone to hunt you down and kill you, so I want you to hunt this Anthony down instead before he leads trouble to our lands.”
“…”
“Can you do it?” I asked .
A teasing smile spread across her lips and I took that as a yes.
“Make his death a public art site…I have a score to settle with his father, so don’t be in a hurry, be sure to invite his father out with this”
Anthony’s father, Crodsey, was part of the leading humans that attacked the white Bone clan.
“As you wish” She climbs up the beams and moved to the dark side to change, too bad I can see everything as clear as day.
This…
Shaking my head, I proceeded with my cultivation while considering what to do with Brogg and Vass in the Greyeye fortress as I have come to call it.
Blackmoon Town,
Outside by the training Field,
Nazu’s POV,
Moz walks out of the hall and nods at me before heading off somewhere. That only meant one thing, He agreed…
I couldn’t help smiling at the fact that he agreed with my suggestion.
Urim didn’t say much either, as he understood what Moz meant, he simply shrugged before leaving the shade we were hiding under.
A few steps away, he stops and says with a laugh…
“You still owe me a duel”
“…” without waiting for my response, he chose to leave and I couldn’t help but turn to see Raal’s expression but was greeted with the sight of Raal and his wolf arguing again, well it was mostly Raal yelling and the wolf either nodding or shaking it’s head while supporting it’s opinion with some odd sounds.
“You are wondering why I didn’t taste it myself?” Raal asked in surprise before saying”Don’t go accusing me of anything, it’s just that I just ate earlier…Old Dabok says we shouldn’t drink immediately after eating..”
“what do you mean you just ate too… how did you eat, I don’t remember giving you any…How did I eat? ah? You are really unbearable? how am I supposed to eat? can I still swap you for…No, I didn’t mean…”
Shaking my head speechlessly, I went to gather some goblins and prepare somethings to shield us from the rain but I noticed that there were more children and pregnant Goblins than a few days ago.
I couldn’t help being jealous as I subconsciously touches my tummy, The thought of having children has been lingering in my mind lately since the news of Gilgar being pregnant for Urim spread out recently.
‘in two days’ I keep repeating to myself.
