《The Battle Mage》Road back home
Advertisement
Home is the place where I want to take Blue, Mira, Arachne, and the others, it's also where I plan to hold my engagement, I'm not gonna lie, I am nervous as hell.
Although that was my plan, we were headed to Central city. Surprisingly, our journey there was not hindered, I quickly headed for Mrs. Sasha's office while Blue and the others went back home, I knocked on the wooden door.
"Enter" I heard a reply from within
I entered the room and the familiar scenery kicked in, a wooden table in between two red luxurious sofas and in front of the window was a desk full of papers but strangely today, it was not there. The wooden chair turned and I saw Mrs. Sasha, her back facing the window she smiled
"I heard of what happened" Her usual clumsy yet joyful smile was replaced with a sinister grin, her eyes seemed to be glowing too
"You look like a demon" I frankly commented
"Eh?" She looked surprised and she kept touching her face, she slapped both her cheeks as if to remind herself of something and the usual smile appeared on her face again
"Is that how you switch gears?" I chuckled
"Shut it, I am thankful that you avenged Lucia" She paused for a bit before she looked at me
"You did it to avenge Lucia right?" She asked
"I did it for her, don't worry" I nodded
"Good, some spies of mine used a reason to enjoy a week off somewhere, too bad I predicted it and now they're back to being spies at Sigurd. They reported the death of the King to me"
"Oh, he died already?" I kinda expected him to last at least three days more
"Yeah, the cause of death was extensive blood loss due to losing a huge portion of his skin" Mrs. Sasha chuckled
"Well, he did want his wife to be with him" I commented
"But" My chuckles were stopped by Mrs. Sasha's words
"But?" I asked
"I've now heard the return of the prince and he is now succeeding the throne, also with the help of the Heroine, they both quelled the uprising that the townsfolk put together"
"I see" So the two finally got together
"Yes, for now, they won't pose a problem but I'd like to ask you what you think? you seem awfully close to the two of them one way or another" Mrs. Sasha asked
"They won't attack for now at least" Is all I could say
"That's not much to work with" She bitterly smiled
"I would investigate them myself but as you can see, I still have plans of my own" I commented
"I see, so what're you going to do now?"
"I'm going back home"
"You won't stay at Central? well I guess after all the chaos you've been through, you'd want to relax"

"Yup"
"Alright, I can give you a two-week leave, is that alright? I know you've done so much but you're still a student"
"That's just I'm just a student with so much achievement" I was getting arrogant
"Achievements that are recognized, just not appreciated much" Mrs. Sasha chuckled
"That just hurts"
"I know, I know, now run along, I still have some planning to do" Mrs. Sasha waved her hands in a gesture to shoo me away
I left the office and headed for the mansion, as soon as I got back, Ritsu and Riza suddenly went in for a hug, except they jumped and headed for my stomach like a lance, I quickly touched my armor and made it vanish. Then the two lances hit my stomach, pretty hard. All three of us collapsed on the ground
"We missed you!" Both of them said in sync as they hugged me and punched me with their tiny hands at the same time
"I missed you guys too" I sat up and ruffled their hair, compared to last time, their hair was now silky smooth and cottony soft
They both ran away as they laughed, seriously, did they miss me?
"Welcome back, what did Mrs. Sasha say?" Mira pulled me up
"Just Helios and the Heroine whoever she is are now teaming up" I replied
"Will they pose a problem?" Mira asked with a cold glint in her eyes
"I don't know but for now, why don't we go back home" I stated
"Home? with everyone?"
"Yeah"
"Then, I'll tell everyone to pack their stuff, when will be leaving?"
"How about tomorrow morning?" I stated
"Sure" She walked up the stairs
I assume that Mira's already announced our plans since I heard sorrowful screams followed by drawers being hastily opened
"Yeah... they might've already unpacked and then got the news from Mira" I chuckled as I headed for the kitchen
I can see Arachne chopping some meat but this time, she's not breaking the chopping board, she's only leaving deep marks. I call it progress
Blue, on the other hand, was happily humming while washing the vegetables. It is a bit late in the afternoon and they were all preparing dinner, maybe I should help out?
I took a peek and saw the food for tonight was veggie soup and chicken soup, I tilted my head, soups? I'm not in the mood for it but I'll eat some of them, it's their cooking after all.
I went out of the house and headed for the market, though it is getting dark, it is still bustling and crowded. Stands of fish, vegetables, and meat vendors still open. People kept bargaining, usually, the vendors would fight back but since it's near closing time for them, they happily agreed, of course, if the price doesn't get too low.
I looked around and saw some chicken for sale, they look full of meat and I started to crave roasted chicken. On a whim, I bought the said chicken after a heated battle with the vendor, I tell ya, they might seem harmless but when you talk about money, they turn to housewives who control their husband's every income.

After that, I bought some lemon and some chili peppers before heading home. Using small pebles I shaped a circle in the backyard, put some charcoals in it and set it on fire, once the charcoals were hot enough, using two sticks as a stand, I skewered the chicken with a metal rod as I happily roasted it
"Lyan! what are you doing?" I heard a call from inside, the window opened and Blue's head popped out
"I'm making roast chicken" I replied
"Oh, okay, don't stay out there for too long it's starting to get cold and we'll have dinner later" Blue reminded me
"Sure" I nodded
Blue went back inside
I opened my com. cube and connected to my parents
At first, nothing showed up but soon after, mother and father appeared
"Hey there Lyan boy, I've heard of what happened with your teacher" Dad was utterly frank
"*sigh* are you okay son? you holding up?" Mom on the other hand showed concern and worry
"I'm okay mom and dad, I didn't call you guys because I was feeling down or anything, to be honest, I've already gotten revenge" I stated
"Yes, we've heard about it too, torturing a King? that's a grave crime right there" Mom nodded
Wait, now that I think about it, I did kill a King of an entire nation, holy shit.
"Indeed, be careful alright? most of Sigurds holy knights were away on a crusade when you attacked but when they come back, they'll probably hunt you down" Dad chuckled
Mom pinched him
"Seriously, our son is in danger and you make a joke about it" Mom berrated dad
"D-don't worry honey, I mean, he is our son" Dad's voice cracked
"*sigh* hopeless" Mom rubbed her forehead
"Uhm... I'm still here?" I spoke out
"Oh right, I'm sorry sweetie, now, why were you calling again?" Mom asked
"I've decided to propose to Mira, Blue, and Arachne, I'll be doing it back there, also, we're leaving tomorrow"
"Lyan you cheeky little, why couldn't dad be as lucky as y- *cough* I mean, my wife is all I need" Dad was jealous for a second before a fiendish claw shaped hand pinched his waist
"I see, I'm happy you decided to marry them but are you sure about this? I mean you'll be with them forever" Mom asked
"I'm sure mom, don't worry" I smiled
"I see, tell us if you need anything, we'll do our best to help" Mom stated
"Thanks, I will"
"Alright sweetie, bye!" Mom waved her hand
"You be safe there Lyan" Dad nodded
The communication was cut off just as I smelled the sweet fragrance of roasted chicken, I was almost drooling too. I picked up the metal rod where the chicken was skewered after wearing a glove, I went inside
I headed for the kitchen and pulled out a large plate, I placed the steaming roasted chicken there before pulling out a saucer. I squeezed a bit of lemon and mixed it with soy and crushed chili. Perfect
I placed the roasted chicken on the table and the sauce beside it, I heard Blue call out from upstairs followed by footsteps. By the time they arrived, I was already done setting up the plates
"Uhh, cap, did you roast that chicken outside?" Clay asked
"Yeah, why?" I asked
"Because ate-Mizu is extinguishing a fire outside" Clay smiled
"Shit" I ran outside and saw Mizu happily playing with the water, I was relieved to see the extinguished fire before calling out to her
"Mizu, dinner time" I called out to heer
She looked at me and came running inside
Mizu washed her hands real quick before sitting on the table
We all feasted on the food, everyone was happy and happily eating
"So cap, I heard we're going somewhere tomorrow?" Clay asked as he rubbed his tummy
"Yeah, didn't Mira tell you where?" I asked
"No, ate-Mira didn't" Clay replied
"I see, listen up everyone, tomorrow morning" I spoke out garnering the attention of everyone, I looked around before continuing
"We're heading back home to Timberland"
Everyone looked at each other before they started cheering, only Blue was nervous
"Hey there Blue, you're finally going to meet my parents" I spoke out
"Yes... I must prepare myself" Blue seemed excited too yet nervous at the same time
That night Blue was with me, she wore a silky nightgown that barely hid her underwear she also didn't hide her tails. Her tails sway back and forth as she caressed my cheeks
"Meeting your parents" Blue muttered to herself
"Don't worry, they'll like you" I reassured her
"Really?"
"Really"
She grabbed my head and pressed it against her breast
Oh good lawd, it's so soooooft
I enjoyed the soft sensation on my face
"Lyan" Blue called out in an erotic voice, I looked up and saw her breathing hard with her face flushed
"Don't breathe on my breast so hard" She stated as she looked at me with her beautiful eyes
"I'm sorry" I really was smelling her
Call me a pervert but I call my actions love
The night passed by and when I woke up in the morning
'OH DEAR GOD I CAN'T FEEL MY RIGHT ARM!' I was panicking but soon found out the culprit, Blue used it as her pillow

The Goddess of Death's Champion
Eliot and Cel start off the same as any other peasant and climb their way to the heavens. At least, that's what a cheesy hook might say, however, Eliot and Cel have always had the attention of the Gods, Eliot longer than Cel but by no God more important. Even if it is their destiny to achieve legend status, they started out some where, and with only the semblance of a head start, not to mention that it makes for an interesting story. (If you decided to read because of a specific tag, some of them only show up later on in the story. I should also mention that romance is a significant focus but there is no romance tag besides the one in genre)

Tale of Tales
* Tale of Tales is a High/Epic Fantasy saga based on the motifs of ancient myths, legends, and forgotten fairytales * Senka is no hero, but you never know what is coming for you. And if that burns down your house and family, while you are left blinded by your house’s guardian snake, the outlook becomes grim. So Senka clings to her dog’s back to survive, unaware of the fateful prophecy and the great changes to come. But when a wandering warrior becomes her protector and mysterious strangers join their hounded party through a series of seemingly chance encounters, they all begin to discover that all is not as it seems. What is pursuing her? And why? Can the strange characters gathering around her on her desperate quest save her from doom? Are they mere puppets of a young, beguiling witch guided by her own hidden motives, or are forgotten shadows rising again from the immeasurable depths of time? A tale of folk fairytales and myths, of swords and sorcery and mythical beings – a unique story of dark times and unsung heroes who may light your way. Book one, A Strange Bunch, features leading characters of various ages. This is a fantasy with their progression happening slowly throughout the series, with occasional spikes in character power after certain encounters that may or may not be random. Although the book series is written with adult and young adult audiences in mind, it is, in the tradition of such epics as “The Lord of the Rings,” suitable for all ages. Excerpt from the scene depicted on the cover of the first book: “Above this hellish pack and the rider at the forefront, flurried a ghastly sight – a cloud of dark, endlessly bustling bodies and wings, a swarm of creatures that, through their almost infinite number, produced that great din which had first reached the ears…” RELEASE SCHEDULE is about once a week. The entire series should take around two and a half years of weekly chapter episodes, so do encourage me by reacting and following. Ratings are greatly appreciated!
