The Ancients World

Chapter 389 - The Final Stretch To Greshina I



~~~(Location: Campsite near The Road to The Capital, Elven Kingdom)~~~

~~~(Time: 7:30 AM)~~~

Everyone has finished packing up their stuff, and people are loading into the carriage. Sally and I are already on top of the carriage, waiting for Helda to get it moving. It\'s a magical carriage. After all, it doesn\'t need a horse. Last night was one of the most emotional nights of my life, second to the death of my mother. Hailey sure brought out the hurt part of me.

Not intentionally. It kinda just came out the longer I talked to someone who knew the truth. Who had an idea of the knowledge that I carry. "You slept all night after you went to sleep, and you didn\'t talk once while dreaming... Do you think that getting some of the stress out helped?" I\'ve developed a bad habit of talking in my sleep.

Sally has heard some of the things that I try to keep hidden. I don\'t know how much she knows. She says that I\'ll talk to her about it when I\'m ready. "Yeah, it was one of the best nights of sleep I\'ve gotten in a while." Sally is my lover and my girlfriend. Someone I\'ve shared many things I ever thought I would with. Yet, I still have lots of secrets.

A relationship built on secrets won\'t last, and I intend on telling her everything about the wish and the things I\'ve changed after we\'re done with the royal family and the Orvello family. "Do you think we\'ll reach Greshina on time, just like we\'re hoping?" According to Helda, Melimora, and Terox, we\'re getting close to Greshina.

Ashburn, Leila, and Freskra have told us stories about the capital and the things that go down within its walls. Jasmine has been interested in their stories, finding the things they know valuable information. The same that I think. "Yeah, we\'re to arrive there by afternoon, if not a little earlier. It helped that we didn\'t run into any trouble getting here." It\'s been relatively smooth, in my opinion.

Terox and Helda haven\'t caused any problems, and we\'re right on schedule. Once we arrive in Greshina, we\'ll start making plans and giving tasks to those that can do them. This is a big job, and walking into the throne room and killing everyone will not work. It\'s about making a change in The Elven Kingdom, and to do that, we need to make the proper preparations.

Sally and I will be focusing on the Orvello family, and I think everyone else will rather handle the royal family. Hailey will have to help them, but these are just ideas that I have at the moment. Nothing is set in stone. "I\'m scared about meeting them... Punishing them for what they did..." In an instant, I\'m already sitting up and looking down at the relaxed Sally next to me.

While it\'s understandable to be afraid, she needs to know that nothing will happen to her. If push comes to shove, and everything turns to shit. I\'ll unleash all my power and start slaughtering all the nobles. I doubt it\'ll escalate to any level close to that. "You know how I feel about revenge, Sally... I think it\'s perfectly fine to pursue, and it\'s in your right to punish them." I stand by her.

I stand by the words that I\'m saying. Sometimes, the only way to get closure is to hurt and punish those who attacked you and damned you to a cursed life. Controlling that vengeance is key, Sally does an excellent job of keeping it in check. Her constant questioning, if it\'s right or wrong, is evidence of how serious she is about controlling it.

She\'s come a long way in terms of power, experience, and fulfillment of revenge. She\'s already gotten revenge on those that tortured her and abused her. Now we\'re on our to find and face the people that signed the bloodletter. "Hey, I\'m with you every step of the way. Remember that." She looks me in the eyes and smiles. Her blond hair is spread out on the carriage roof below her.

Not wasting a moment, I lean over her, and she gains a look, understanding what I\'m trying to do. Her eyes become half-lidded, and she puckers her lips. Waiting for me to descend with my own. Not making her wait any longer, I connect my lips with her, and we share a normal and calm kiss. One that\'s not overly lustful. One that\'s peaceful.

~~~(Time: 8:40 AM)~~~

The scenery is starting to become more familiar. It\'s been a long time since I was even near Greshina. A labeled terrorist like myself shouldn\'t risk her life like this, but it\'s a single circumstance that I\'m fulfilling. The chance that the royal family can be dethroned and stopped isn\'t one I\'m passing up. Not when Cera and Hailey are here to help. The two most powerful people I know.

Their help will ensure that everything happens and ends the way we want to. However, I\'m a little worried about Hailey and Cera\'s mental conditions. From what I saw last night, things aren\'t so great in the head for either of them. They both seem to be doing better. "Ahh!~..." A feminine voice is heard. One that\'s erotic and muffled.

Everyone in the carriage looks at the ceiling above, already knowing where and who that sound originated from. "I can\'t believe them." Hailey grits her teeth as she moves for the door and swings it open. Standing up on the edge and poking her head to see them. "This isn\'t the time or place!! You horny idiots!!" She comes back into the carriage with the door slamming in the process.

We all look at Hailey, and there is a flustered look, and it\'s not for the reason you think. She\'s embarrassed that her brother would even try something like that while we\'re all in here. "Sorry about that, everyone... Sometimes I wonder what he thinks is right and wrong at certain times..." If only I were as bold as Cera was, such a move requires something I don\'t have.

He\'s definitely an interesting person, and Sally is lucky to have him. She\'ll need to be careful once people learn she\'s the lover and girlfriend of Slayer Zern. Many political parties would seek to remove her, and while they\'d fail, the threat is still there. "Remember when we used to try stuff like that?" We all look toward Leila as she speaks to Freskra, who is blushing.

~~~(Time: 8:46 AM)~~~

I\'m so embarrassed! Stupid, stupid, stupid Cera!! If my looks could kill, he\'d be dead. All he\'s doing is smiling and looking at my reaction. I should\'ve stopped when he got a little handsy. But no, instead, I allowed him to continue his touching, and he eventually found my panties and decided to have some fun in them! Ugh! I\'m so mad!

The way he\'s looking at me ticks me off a bit, but it\'s not all his fault... It\'s mine too... I didn\'t stop him... In fact... I welcomed it... Spreading my legs for him to have better access. "C\'mon, it\'s not that bad. Do you want me to make a sexy noise to even us out?" My hand finds its way up the side of his head, but he doesn\'t budge. Given how strong he is. Charmer, this one.

He brings me into his arms, but I don\'t find myself resisting. "I\'m sorry, I got a little carried away, and I should\'ve stopped at the kissing, but this isn\'t all my fault. You need to take some of the blame, too. You didn\'t put up an ounce of resistance." He smiles as my eyes dodge from looking at him and not. My embarrassment grows at his words. I give a simple nod, confirming my own guilt.
