Reincarnated with an Analysis system. - Chapter 117 Leaving The Village
Sato made his way out of the water with Crustave and met Deka and Giron waiting for him at the surface.
He came out of the water and a warm steaming haze left his body which immediately dried the water on his body up.
“Lord Sato, how was it?” Giron walked toward Sato with Deka following behind him.
“He’s right, there’s a cave down there,” Sato confirmed, he turned and looked at the river for a while.
“Deka!” Sato called out.
“Yes.” Replied Deka, he walked toward Sato, his dark scythe resting behind his back which made him look more manly.
“You called?”
Sato looked at him, “Once I’m done here, I need you to get some men to keep an eye on this side of the river frequently.” He asserted.
“Understood.” Deka agreed, “But, what are you going to do to the river, if I may ask”.
“You’ll see.” Sato strolled toward the water and stopped at the level his feet could still touch the rocky ground.
Taking a deep breath, Sato raised his hands to the air and all of a sudden, a long rumbling sound began to resonate throughout the place.
A huge wall grew from all four points of the river, gradually closing in on themselves till they were able to form a giant igloo to enclose the section of the river housing the mysterious cave.
Deka, Giron, and Crustave’s jaws dropped in shock as they looked at how massive the wall covering the water was.
Sato stepped out of the water with a heavy sigh leaving his mouth, “Okay, now that that has been taken care of, I should go check on Diana… what is it?” He asked after seeing the looks on their faces.
“Nothing, my lord, it’s just… you.”
“Darling!!!”.
Giron was interrupted by the hurried yell that came from the right distance.
They all looked to see Erza running toward their position and Sebastian walking behind her.
“Erza? What are you…”
Erza hugged Sato, before pulling back with her arms still wrapped around his neck, “Where have you been for the past two days?”.
“Well, you see…”
Erza didn’t let him finish
“Doesn’t matter, I came to get you, come, let’s go back to Nervek.” Erza informed with a smile on her face.
“Ehh?”
At first, Sato didn’t understand what he was going to do at Nervek, but later on, Erza explained to him that the royal selection was commencing the next day.
Sato felt a bit overwhelmed by the information, but also knew it was the next step to take. So he took Yuri, Divanchi, and Delta with him to Nervek.
Before he left, he made some rules for the village to follow, mainly based on the bad senses he was having.
Do not let any outsider inside the village till I return.
Stop all trade and work till I return.
And lastly, was to send the village’s slime, Celi, to patrol the outskirts of the village frequently.
After laying down the rules, most of the villagers stood at the entrance as they watched Sato and the rest leave the village for the royal selection.
“Awwn, man, lord Sato is gone again, and he didn’t take me… Again.” Jiro let out, walking away with a sad look on his face.
Diana, Latina, and Deka were both still standing at the entrance, discussing their thoughts with each other.
“So, what should we do now?” Latina asked, “Do you think lord Sato is scared of something? Because I already planned on selling out the new fabrics I made”.
“We are talking about the same person that defeated the Duke of Nervek… I’m sure has a reason for saying what he did.” Deke assured, “Well, I’m off to control the guards, as lord Sato said, no one must enter the Village”.
“Hold on there mister!” Daine grabbed the edge of the Scythe on Deka’s back and pulled him, “Lord Sato just indirectly said we should all take a break… you can now focus on your pregnant wife”.
“D-daina!” Deka stammered.
“She’s right, you know, remember, Lord Sato would be very disappointed if he finds out you didn’t take care of me.” Latina teased, holding Deka close by the arm.
Latina’s stomach had already gotten big since she was already 3 months pregnant. And for elves, the fourth month is usually when they finally give in to labor.
Sato, one of the most anticipated people feeling eager to see the baby elf had made sure to do everything to make Latina comfortable.
Even so much so that some of the beast men started thinking he was the father, he was so enthusiastic about it that he didn’t even think that far ahead.
Deka sighed before a soft smile left his lips, “Fine, let’s go”.
Deka and Latina both walked away, leaving Diana standing at the entrance with a smile on her face.
She went toward the second building to her left and went in to see Elena sitting in the darkness on the bed.
“Why is it so dark in here?” Diana voiced out, she swarmed her hand around the wall till she felt her hand touch a hard object.
She then poured her magic inside and the lights came on. Diana was shocked when she saw Elena on the bed, gone in thought.
The ground was scattered with sliced potatoes and on the bed was Elena’s short blade.
She was folded on the bed, looking at the short blade as trauma and fear were written on her face.
“Hey, Elena? Are you okay?” Diana raised a question as she approached Elena and sat on the bed.
Elena didn’t reply immediately, she looked at Diana before she asked, “Is Lord Sato out of the Village?”.
“Yes, he went to Nervek for the royal selection.” Diana replied, “So you can..”.
“I wanna be alone for a while….” Elena voiced out.
“Is this about… the incident at..”
“I’m not scared!” Elena jolted from the bed and leaned toward Daina, “I’m not scared… I promise.” She muttered.
“O-okay, okay, you’re not scared…” Diana said with an anxious look on her face.
“Exactly,… I’m not scared.” Elena mumbled before she went back to folding herself on the bed.
