Chapter 19: Epilogue

Two more weeks passed. Feo was almost back to the way it used to be. There were still traces of the damage in places, and the tired and somewhat nervous appearance of the inhabitants still reminded us of the recent battle, but that was nothing compared to what we were left with after the remnants of the Volt's troops had left the city. It meant only one thing: there was nothing more for us to do here. The gathering of the nobles that Celestine had mentioned should take place in a month or so, and we should be in the capital by then, or much sooner, to educate those in need and prepare, for this was a serious matter that should not be rushed through. Besides, you have to stop by Prim's house in Ur, meet the girl's parents, and take a couple of fat boars who live there by the ass. So, after seeing to the restoration of the city, our entire company is now gathered in the courtyard of the castle to load up in carriages and ride out, accompanied by a hundred knights led by the same captain, additionally reinforced by a hundred of Theo's best fighters. And a few others.

"Idle?" - She asks the dark elf-woman, who comes up behind me in her deep, deep voice. - "What else would I expect from someone like you..."

"Still sulking at me for kicking your juicy ass?" - With a wide grin, I turn to the woman and cross my arms under her breasts, peering at my companion. - "Delva."

Back in the very beginning, when we first started preparing for the battle for Feoh, Olga used some kind of magic to send a message to the homeland, to let it be known that she had survived and to ask for help. And now, that help is here. Delva Celebrian. A five-hundred-year-old warrior with an outstanding figure, long purple hair, and golden eyes, part-time leader of a squad of twenty dark elves who showed up in Feo a couple of days ago and demanded to be escorted to Queen Olga of Discordia. Specially instructed in such cases, the guards at the gate, of course, let them in, but led into the castle, said to wait until someone comes for them. I did. And somehow the conversation with her did not work out on the spot. It wasn't enough that the humans had made them wait until they were presented to the queen, but it was the same man who came to see them off, not one of their own people. The Eared Ones began to wonder if they'd been tricked, if the message that came from Queen Discordia wasn't really from her at all. It's worth admitting that there's a lot of blame for me and Olea. Hers in the fact that she began to see me as one of her own and somewhat forgot how proud her subjects could be, and mine in the fact that I was not patient enough to resolve the misunderstanding with words. Anyway, the mistress greeted her guests when they were in a somewhat wrinkled state, bound hand and foot, and laid out in a row by a caring me. And it is quite natural that I did not earn sympathy from them, but quite the contrary. However, when everyone calmed down, we had time to get acquainted with them and reconcile a little, but some animosity remained. That didn't stop me from joking about it from time to time.

"If you weren't the one who saved my lady, I'd chop your head off..." - But the girl doesn't like these jokes.

"Let's be honest, Delva." - Trying hard not to laugh, I keep teasing her. - "You'd try to chop my head off, but you'd still get your ass kicked."

"You are so..." - The warrior closed her eyes and began to breathe deeply, probably counting to herself to calm her nerves. Though she disliked me, she acknowledged my strength and merits for saving the queen, so she didn't really get into the bottle, knowing that if she flared up I would twist her again, but her pride prevented her from responding to the jokes at all.

"Handsome?" - Which I shamelessly took advantage of.

"You narcissistic bastard!" - The pixie's attempt to clear her mind of all things creaturely failed and her face lit up with emotion and a finger was pointed accusingly in my direction. - "How did the queen ever tie her life to you? You must have brainwashed her with your idle chatter..."

My relationship with Olya was not a secret, we just didn't see the point in it. And if Celestina and the girls did not find anything extraordinary in it, although the number of complex looks directed in my direction multiplied, but the long-eared daughters of the desert could not so easily accept the fact that their mistress romances with some little man. However, their dissatisfaction went no further than verbal complaints away from Olenka's eyes, the memory of how I "gently spanked" them when I met them was still fresh in my mind.

"Delva, leave the matter of our relationship with Kei to us. We can handle it without your help." - The queen's deceptively friendly voice, coming from the side, sobered Delva instantly. Behind the soft tone lurked a menace that imbued the woman to the core. A drop of cold sweat trickled down her forehead, and her eyes widened in silent terror. Oh yes, when Olga doesn't like something, she knows exactly how to convey it to those around her.

"I-I-I'm sorry... my Queen..." - The girl bowed in a deep bow, touching the ground with the tips of her hair.

"Kay, and you stop pestering the last general trained by imperial standards, or we risk losing her to a heart attack." - They shamed me, too, but without the pressure, letting me know that they weren't upset by my behavior, but they needed to scold me purely for the record.

- Who? Me? I did nothing..." I turned my face to the other side, whistling lazily and twiddling my thumbs, and hastened to change the subject. - "How's your appetite?"

"Better now." - The elf-woman nodded contentedly. - "No more eating for four. Sure, it was fun to eat whatever you wanted and not get any fatter, but you don't have to get used to it. Oh, and the effect." - Her eyes glittered with golden light, and sparks of electricity glittered on the fingertips of her hand raised to face level. - "Already visible."

As can be understood from the context, Olga agreed to accept the nanorobots, making sure that Chloe was all right.

"Great news!" - I answer with undisguised joy. With a boost from the nanorobots, she will change from an already weak sorceress into such a death machine that even I will pale in comparison to her. - "Now my majestic and dangerous mistress is even more majestic and dangerous."

- "And I can't wait to test my new abilities..."

At this point we finished our conversations and loaded ourselves into the carriage. We will have time to talk a lot on the way, it will not be the closest, before the capital will have to stop in a few places.

The first stop will be the town of Ur.

So, friends. This is the end of the first part of my fanfic. I will begin the second part after some and the story will continue. See you all soon!
