Chapter 234: The Chief’s Prayer
Chapter 234: The Chief’s Prayer
“How do you know my name ?” Leon asked with a confused expression as he looked at Medina.
“I can also tell that you are not from this… *Cough-Cough*…” Before she could’ve completed her sentence, blood started coming out of her mouth.
“You don’t look very good… This parasite really fucked you up, huh ?” Leon asked with a neutral expression.
“You are not from this world, Leon Luster.” Medina spoke as she looked at Leon with a serious expression.
As soon as Leon heard this, his eyes widened in shock and surprise.
’How does she know ?’ He thought with a very confused expression.
“Don’t think too much about it… I, myself am a Demi-God. I can tell that your *Cough-Cough* soul doesn’t belong to this world.” Medina spoke.
“You were the one in my dream that night… I remember now. It was your face.” Leon spoke with a serious expression as he looked at her.
“I was the one who brought you here, Leon. I was the one who sent that steelweb spider your way and gave you that armour skill.
I was the one *Cough-Cough* who showed you the way to my brother’s village.” Medina spoke but the more she spoke, more blood came out of her mouth.
“Why ?” Leon asked with a confused expression.
“Because you are the only one who can save me and the tree of Life. If this tree dies… This forest will die, me and my children will die and these demonic vines will become too strong to stop.
I beg you, Please save this tree… Please save my children, Leon Luster and I will pay you an equal *Cough-Cough* price.” Medina spoke as she looked at Leon.
“How do I save you ?” Leon asked with a curious expression.
“Five years ago… Orion was one of us. He was happy and very brave, but on a very unfortunate day, his wife ’Olin’ was captured by some humans and they killed her after using her body.
When Orion saw her body, he broke down completely and transformed into a ’Mungel Fairy’.
We tried to comfort him and for a moment we thought he was ready to turn back into a normal fairy but my faith was broken.
Orion s-stole the ’Soul Stones’ of h-his sisters and turned them into cursed fairies using this Demonic Parasite.
This parasite sucks life f-force out of their bodies during the day and uses t-them at night to hunt for food. Without my children… I don’t have any power and the last bit of power that I was saving was used in bringing you here.” Medina explained as her voice started breaking and more tears started coming out of her eyes.
“What’s a soul stone ?” Leon asked with a confused expression.
“A soul stone is the life essence of a fairy… It holds all of their magical powers. Orion holds all of their soul stones right now and you have to get them back from him.
If you can get the soul stones from him, I will able to bring back one of my children back to her senses and she will handle the rest.
Please get those stones, Leon.” Medina explained.
“Say… These soul stones, is there anyway that they can be used to stop the cursed fairies from attacking the guy who is holding them ?” Leon asked with a curious expression.
“Yes, Yes… They will never attack the one who holds all the soul stones.” Medina replied.
“Why ?” Leon asked with a confused expression.
“They are cursed and their bodies are being controlled by this Demonic Parasite, but as soon as they get near the soul stones, their consciousness starts to take over their bodies and it diminishes the effect of the Parasite.
That’s why the parasite immediately makes them step back.” Medina explained.
“Ah… So, that’s why. Then I know where he keeps those soul stones.” Leon replied with a neutral expression.
“You do ? Really ?” Medina asked with a serious expression.
“Yeah, he keeps them in a bowl and he was using them to- Wait… Your brother came here last night, right ?” He asked with a confused expression.
“I don’t know *Cough-Cough* I didn’t see him, but he comes in one or two weeks to make sure I am dying.
Sun is going down… Parasite will release them for hunt soon, you have to get back to the village and get the soul stones.
Leon, I never thought that I will fell down to such a disgraceful sight and ask a human for help, but you are different.
You don’t fear death as much as the other humans. Please help me, Leon and you will not be disappointed in the rewards.” Medina replied as she looked at Leon with a serious expression.
“I hope so too.” Leon replied with a neutral expression as he started walking towards dusk, who was constantly shaking his legs.
“Master… Should we leave ? I-I am not very comfortable here.” Dusk spoke with a worried expression as he continued to shake his body.
“Yes. Let’s go back to the village.” Leon replied as he immediately jumped on his back.
*Hop*
Dusk immediately started running at full speed.
’If all the fairies have soul stones that means Orion also have one of them. If I can get a hold of his soul stone… I will be able to get the other stones from him easily.
Fuck, I should’ve asked her where the fairies keep their soul stones.’ Leon thought with a serious expression.
…
After running for about 30 minutes, both of them reached the village as a cold blanket of darkness covered the sky.
“Master… We are here.” Dusk replied as he stopped behind some bushes near the village.
Leon immediately jumped down from his back and Dusk transformed back into his cat form.
“No snow tonight, huh ?” Leon asked as he looked up and noticed that the sky was cloudy but there were no signs of snowfall.
Leon and Dusk slowly sneaked inside the village from the backside and noticed that all the villagers are gathering firewoods to make a campfire.
Dusk and Leon stood behind a house and noticed that Orion was going into his house with a smile on his face.
’I have to find out what this motherfucker does in these three hours. I am pretty sure he is not doing any kind of prayer in there.’ Leon thought with a serious expression.
“Where the hell are you doing ?” Suddenly, Mia’s voice came from behind.
Leon immediately turned around and noticed that she was standing behind him with a bunch of firewood in her hands.
“What are you doing here ?” Leon asked with a confused expression.
“I just asked you that question.” Mia replied with a neutral expression.
“Yeah, I don’t have time for this. Tell me… Do you an extra key to the chief’s house ?” Leon asked with a serious expression.
“What ? No. Why would you want a key to-”
“Keep your voice down first of all.” Leon spoke as he placed his hand over her mouth.
“Fine… But why do you want to get inside the chief’s house ?” Mia asked with a confused expression.
“Look, that guy is not a human. He is a fairy and that’s all I can tell you for now.
I need to get inside his house right now, so can you help me ?” Leon asked with a serious expression.
“A-Are you crazy ? You are saying that chief is a fairy ? How can chief be a fairy… Those things are monsters and chief is-”
“Chief is the one who turned them into monsters, Mia. You have to believe me or you will never be able to get out of this village.” Leon replied with a serious expression.
“O-Okay… Fine, Fine… I will believe you. Just don’t make me regret this decision. There is a secret door in his house.
My father built that house and the chief asked him to keep that door a secret. When I was little… I used it to hide from the other kids while playing.
You can used it to get inside the house.” Mia replied with a serious expression.
“Where is it ?” Leon asked with a serious expression.
“It’s in the back of the house. You have to look down at the bottom left corner and you will notice a small gap between the wooden logs there.” Mia explained.
“Okay, Thanks.” Leon spoke as he immediately started walking towards the chief’s house.
“Wait… Come back.” Mia spoke as she grabbed his hand and pulled him back.
“What ?” Leon asked with a confused expression.
“I want to sleep with you tonight. I heard what you did to Lea… I want to feel it too.” Mia spoke with an embarrassed expression.
“Fine, Fine… You will sleep with me tonight. Now let go of my hand. I don’t have time for this.” Leon replied with a serious expression.
“Okay.” Mia spoke as she let go of Leon’s hand.
Without wasting another second, Leon sneaked upto Orion’s house and after looking around for a while, he finally found the secret door on the left bottom corner but it was very small.
So small that only a cat or dog can pass through it.
