Chapter 46: Going Home

“How’s your injury?” came in Ren, holding a bowl of hot soup, giving it to Emi, who was now sitting on a bed, looking out at the night sky from the window.

 

“Fine.” answered, looking back at her, taking away the food, slowly starting to eat it

 

“Good. When you are healed up, you can leave.”

 

“Just like… that?” asked, looking at her with a calm expression as the spoon stopped midair. 

 

“Yes. I told you, I’m not interested in what you have to say. You can walk around when you feel better and see the others, talk with them, it will be better to see for yourself then listening to me.”

 

“Are you not concerned… at all?”

 

“Why would I? You are just a footsoldier. Not a decision maker.”

 

“You!”

 

“What.” looked back at her with a sly smile “Am I wrong?”

 

“...”

 

“Eat. Your injury is severe, it’s only thanks to Rem you survived for this long. If you let Leinor help-”

 

“No man will taint me like that. Ever. Especially not a human.”

 

“You wish, it would be just an energy exchange you pervert, nothing like you imagined!” snorted with clear jealousy “Suit yourself. To be honest I’m happy with you refusing it. I heard what you did, just be happy I can control myself. Trying to steal my LeiLei? Fat chance.” snorted as she walked out, slamming the door behind her

 

Emi was silent as she left, turning her attention back to the soup, then continuing eating it, watching the night sky once again.

 

“I was wrong.” sighed softly, “I made a big mistake, Lady Rumira.”

 

…

….

…..

 

“I’m beat!” moaned Ren as she just fell into Leinor’s arms in their bed, wearing a pink nightgown

 

“It was a long day, do you want me to massage you?” smiled, stroking her head

 

“Just hold me… that's enough!” moaned, snuggling up to him “I don’t like that girl.”

 

“Me neither, but we need to show her we are not an enemy.”

 

“I know… haahh… anyway, how’s everybody?”

 

“We are back to action if needed. Especially Poli.”

 

“I guessed as much. But he needs special attention for now. He forcefully advanced and also suffered injuries not just outside but inside too. That damn disciple of mine is the cause I’m still short! The stress and all this shit he puts me through!”

 

“Ahaha, you sure? We are not that far apart, you are already 16 yet…”

 

“Grrrr!”

 

“Ocuh! No biting, no biting!” hissed Leinor as he pulled out his finger from her mouth, that now was decorated with her teeth marks 

 

“Hmf! Poli will need to be careful, no fights for him for a long time and I’ll supervise his daily training until he stabilizes his advancement. I don’t want him to be stuck forever or worse, cripple himself.”

 

“I will watch out for him too, now that the foxy is here, I saw how he reacted and I felt he wanted to challenge her.”

 

“Keep an eye on him. I’ll keep an eye on her. It’s best to avoid any conflicts for now. None of them are fit to fight and I had enough troubles for now. I just want to focus on building up our town.”

 

“Our?” asked Leinor, a bit concerned, remembering the words of Pongo 

 

“Mmm? Is it not? We made this work for the most part, we can call it ours. Even if we go back home, this is a starting point we made possible!”

 

“You don’t want to live here?”

 

“Huh? Why would I?” sat up in his lap, looking at him with raised eyebrows “Did something happen?” 

 

“It’s… nothing.”

 

“Sure?”

 

“Doubly.”

 

“Good then~” giggled, before going for a kiss and soon they laid there, hugging and kissing before slowly falling asleep.

 

…

….

…..

 

The night in the Capital was warm, Dermitos was having a relaxing smoke on his balcony, while back in his chambers his wife and two concubines were laying on the bed, exhausted but in a delirious state, still overwhelmed by the lingering pleasure periodically washing over their bodies. 

 

“Nothing beats this.” puffed out a big smoke in his loose, blue robes 

 

“Ohhhh? You know how to live life, aren’t you?” came a laughing voice, that froze him as he did not feel anyone approaching “Up here, boy.” 

 

When he followed it to its source he saw a blonde man floating slowly downwards while not even the air moved around him and there was no indication of his presence, not physically and not by any energy that a cultivator’s senses could pick up.

 

“You… you are… the…” furrowed his brows, seeing the foreign yet somehow familiar face 

 

“Yup, your grand-grandaddy.” grinned Aerthus, landing on the balcony, patting his shoulders, looking at the naked women on the bed “Nice taste. The middle one has the best hip for bearing children. You have the same preferences as me.” 

 

“Eh.. um, t-thanks? I guess?”

 

“Ahaha, relax. I just got back. The long trip over the endless dunes deprives you of beautiful scenery, let me relax my eyes on a pleasing scene a little~” licked his lips, before turning towards Dermitos “I scanned the Capital, it grew to triple the size of what I remember. I felt other power sources, probably my other offsprings and their people, but I wanted to meet the current Emperor who bears my name.”

 

“Well, I’m only bearing your name for a little more, before passing it on.”

 

“Oh? You are abdicating?”

 

“Yes. My son will take my place soon.”

 

“Great timing! I want you to gather everyone who is strong and is in the plans for establishing my Sect. Don’t tell them I am back, just tell them you received a message from me for doing so. I’ll hide my presence and scout out them first. I want to get a personal feeling of how they are. Oh, yes, yes, about that prodigy of a girl and my talented great grandson. Are they out? I didn’t feel any strange presence… I was looking forward to meeting them!”

 

“Yes Forefather, they have established contact with the demonfolks and…” 

 

As he described the events that happened Aerthus was listening intently, nodding approvingly. When Dermitos finished with his report, he was clearly fired up, reflecting it in his eyes and wide grin.

 

“Good, good! I can’t wait to meet them, call them back too.”

 

“Y-yes.”

 

“Ahaha, I can’t wait!” laughed Aerthus before disappearing without any fluctuations like if he never even was there. 

 

“Huh… he is nothing like the stories describe him.” murmured shaking his head “The heroic warrior, the wise leader… yeah. I guess I can’t blame him, it wasn’t him who wrote the books.” laughed before going back, dressing up and leaving for his study.

 

…

….

….

 

Emi was standing beside Kang, watching the dark skies as lightning flashed around while Feynor just took his 9th lightning strike as he finished his advancement into the Harmony Realm.

 

“It was different…” thought as she looked at Poli, who almost immediately felt her eyes, even though he was hundreds of meters away, turning back, smiling at Emi “They are different…” furrowed her brows as she was thinking how to make her report when she gets back. 

 

“Congratulations Emperor Aerthus X.” grinned Ren as she come close to Feynor

“Please, I am not yet crowned and even when I am… just call me Feynor.”

 

“Ahahaha, will do~”

 

“Congratulations Eldest Brother!” came up Leinor too hugging him 

 

“You need to hurry, I can’t wait to spar with you when you advance!” 

 

“Speaking about sparring-”

 

“No. Not against you.” replied Feynor immediately 

 

“Eh? Why?” blinked Ren with a surprised expression

 

“I know my boundaries. I am not interested in getting defeated. Wait a few years to get a hold of my powers, then maybe.”

 

“Tsk…” sulked with an adorable face “You are no fun…”

 

“Master, I’m ready to spar!” came up Poli as his sword floated behind him 

 

“Produce me four lightning strikes without coughing up blood. Then we will spar.”

 

“Ugh… it’s just… an allergic reaction.”

 

“Yeah, your body is allergic to your stupid ideas. Your energy points are still injured, go back and meditate and bathe in Shaman’s medicine bath!”

 

“Can I not? It… stinks!” 

 

“Shut it, and do it! It’s an order!”

 

“But-”

 

“Zern.”

 

“Yes Master!” nodded as he just grab a hold on Poli, dragging him away

 

“Noooo~ Stop it! Put me down! Help! Rape! Pervert! Help!”

 

“I’m afraid his brain got damaged in the previous fight.” murmured Isha

 

“Probably.” nodded Leinor with a thoughtful expression

 

“It’s rare to see you two agree on something.”

 

As Poli was dragged away, Emi watched them with a calm expression, but deep in her eyes conflicting emotions surged, especially when she saw Rem flying up to Ren, hugging her, telling her about the new flower bracelet she made for everyone. Seeing how the different ape tribes and fairies worked together with humans to build a village and seeing how a new wall was being erected around it for defenses, growing quickly right before her eyes… quickly made her realise the “leading” tribes neglecting the southern territory, treating it as a buffer zone between the humans, will come back hurting them soon enough. 

 

“If they have a leader that unifies the different tribes living here… I need to tell this to Lady Rumira. We need to mend our relationship. Getting their support will help against the other tribes opposing us… and against the Ents.” 

 

Deep in thought, as she left, Kang was still watching her, tasked with protecting not just her but the village from her, taking Ren’s request seriously. Emi, still bandaged up, went into the big, two story house that served as a clinic for the injured, walking up the stairs, going into a room that had two giant basins, filled with mud like, smelly, warm liquid. In one of them, submerged, right up to his neck, sat Poli, with a clip over his nose.

 

“What are you doing here? I’m still in!” 

 

“And?” asked with a calm voice, stripping down, taking off the bandages, before climbing into the other basin, submerging into it “If you try something, I’ll just rip it off of your body. It will balance you out.”

 

“Haha, funny foxy you are.” rolled his eyes, a bit flushed “I bet I could push you down now, you look frail.”

 

“Just try it human.”

 

“I might. You still owe me a rematch.”

 

“I’m ready whenever you are.”

 

“Oh? Really?” stood up Poli, prompting Emi to also do the same as they stared at each other… naked, mud like slime dripping down from their bodies.

 

It took almost five seconds to realize what was going on, especially Poli, who had his sword ready by now… and not his flying one.

 

“Perv.” tore away her eyes finally, sitting back down, looking sideways, masking her flustered expression and flushed face, just like Poli, who immediately did the same. 

 

“Says the fox who assaulted us with horny magic.”

 

“Hmf, you are all just weak, it’s our natural aura, if you are strong willed it’s easy to resist.”

 

“Enough. I’m not talking to you anymore!”

 

“Good. I would appreciate that.”

 

“God, you are insufferable!” 

 

“Why are you still buzzing like a fly?”

 

“Wench!” 

 

“Hairless monkey!”

 

“Tsk, you are a child acting like an adult, this is your real persona I see!”

 

“Yeah? Then you are an adult who acts like a child! You are worse!”

 

“Enough!” came the voice of Shaman from the next door “Both of you mate already or just shut up! You are disturbing my thoughts! Shut up and meditate to let my concoction do it’s work! God I hate teens with hormone deficiency!”

 

Shaman’s angry words finally made both of them silent, but also they just looked the other way, still wearing a sulking expression, not willing to give in just yet…

 

…

….

…..

 

“We will have to go back.” said Ren, giving the freshly arrived letter to Leinor

 

“I see. Father is summoning us, probably something happened.”

 

“You leave, I protect village.” nodded Kang, who was there while Rem’s little eyes were filled with tears 

 

“Ahaha, don’t cry Little Sister.” giggled Ren “It’s not like we will leave forever. We will come back soon, we still have a lot of things to do here.”

 

“You promise?” sniffled the young fairy

 

“I promise!” hugged her lovingly, stroking her small head 

 

“I’ll go with you.” came up Niji, surprising everyone 

 

“Then me too!” cut in Rem immediately.

 

“No. You can’t.” poked her nose Ren “The city would be too much for you and I couldn’t watch over you all the time. Niji can take care of himself, also, he lived with humans before.”

 

“I’d like to meet with your leaders.” continued Niji “I heard some interesting plans from you two.”

 

“I’m glad you are interested in it~” grinned Ren “You will be the first ambassador of the demonfolks’ in human territory. This is going to be a historic event!”

 

“Ambassador huh? Sounds nice.” laughed Niji looking at them 

 

“Sure it does! Tell everyone, tomorrow we leave.” said to Leinor while she was still soothing Rem, who was holding onto her with all her might “First we will stop at the Pass, I miss Mother and Father, we will meet up with them and go back home together.” smiled Ren, looking towards the Capital, feeling excited to be heading home, yet a bit sad, leaving Rem and the others behind, even if it’s for only a little time.
