Reincarnated As The Hero’s Daughter: Wait, Why Is My MP Not Running Out?
Chapter 352 Back Home-----
Before leaving, Allan and Shade decided to ask Jack a few things, especially ones regarding what happened to the little and cute Mist, who ended beaten up to almost dead by thugs. They were not able to see who did it, nor able to stop this from happening. They felt guilty for it, and wanted to find the one that did it and beat them up to make them know her pain, of course, they wouldn't kill them.
"Someone that beat up a little demon girl in the streets? W-Well, we usually don't act on the streets at day, and my subordinates don't go out at the streets picking kids, even demons… If they saw her at day they would leave her alone, but at night… t-they would had kidnaped her, not beat her to almost dead." Said Jack. He asked his subordinates, each and every one of them. With the Soul Chains, they were unable to lie, and it seemed that none of them was the ones behind Mist's events.
"No, it appears that nobody here was…" Sighed Jack.
"Hmm… Then that leaves it to other street thugs, or the other two organizations you talked about, huh?" Wondered Allan. "We want those bastards as soon as possible, use all your connections and find out who beat up a little girl demon girl with white hair and black horns. She had a cross-shaped mouth too."
"And do it quickly." Shade said.
"Y-Yes, please count on me!" Jack said while nodding and lowering his head to the two. He seemed incredibly loyal out of nowhere. Perhaps the beat up he got really impacted him psychologically and ended traumatizing him. Maybe this was even Stockholm syndrome. Whatever the case, the two didn't really cared, and decided to go back to the settlement where the tents of the Amazon Tribe were left.
There was a Mirror Barrier surrounding it since this morning, after Faylen realized that it was dangerous if people could find them out in the open like Celica did so easily back then. As the two jumped over the city's walls and reached the grasslands, it looked as if there was nothing there. Such was the wonderful power of a Mirror Barrier, which reflected light and made it completely transparent.
"I guess the barrier worked well." Said Allan while standing in front of nothing, until he stepped further, easily slipping through the barrier and reaching the small settlement with many tents, Shade followed him from behind.
"So you're finally back!"Suddenly, the two were scared by the voice of a woman that emerged at their left side. Faylen was standing there, her belly was already rather big after being pregnant for many months, and she might end up giving birth in a couple more of months from now. Because of this, she wasn't able to run around and easily accompany them.
"S-Sorry for being late, honey…" Allan quickly changed his personality and nature, trying to calm down the rage of his pregnant wife.
"Sigh, you know how late it is?! I was dead worried." Sighed Faylen while crossing her arms. "So? What happened at the end? Did you find any people?"
"Yes, we found the slaves and we managed to Soul Chain the thugs into obeying us. The leader ended changing his mind after we beat him up and seems cooperative. I don't know why." Said Shade.
"Soul Chain is indeed powerful, I guess we can rely on its powers to keep their mouths shout…" Sighed Faylen. "Did you bring the people through your shadows, Shade?" Asked Faylen.
"Yes… Shadow Expansion." Shade said, a second after, his shadow expanded around his surroundings and everyone inside were slowly dragged into the surface, emerging over the grassy floor.
"Ah! W-We are outside the city?"
"Where are we?"
"Wait, this forest… we are in the fiefdom's outskirts?"
"A big village… It reminds me of my own… Sigh…"
"S-Sir!"
The little Celica ran towards Shade, she had already grown a bit attached to him.
"We are in the village I told you I would bring you to. It is a village of our tribe, we all belong to the Amazon Tribe, and we are slowly moving through the continent, but we are taking some time to rest and gather food and other resources in the meantime here… And that's how we ended here and managed to rescue you all." Shade give an answer to everybody rather quickly to not create any more confusion between the people. Everyone seemed to quickly understand and nodded to his words rather rapidly. People was quick to catch up to things, more than others would believe, especially survivors such as these people.
"Sigh… So you brought them here? I don't know if we got enough tents and beds for everybody, there's over twenty people!" Said Faylen while reprimanding her husband and Shade.
"T-There's… no bed?" The little Celica suddenly appeared near Faylen, timidly walking towards her. "I-I can sleep in the grass… As long as I am with Mister Teddy…"
Faylen looked at the little girl being bare feet, touching the grass with her little toes. She could already imagine how cold they could be, even though it was hard to tell because her skin was already blue.
"N-No, dear, you're sleeping in a bed, okay? Sorry for saying that." Faylen said with a smile, as Celica felt comforted by the elf's motherly charm. "All of you, come with me, we need to quickly build some tents, you two quickly bring things up. Nepheline, where is she?"
"Here." Nepheline quickly had reached Faylen after hearing Shade was back. She had been preparing tents for a while.
"I already told Nepheline through [Telepathy], so she started making the tents with Ninhursag and Arafunn." Said Shade.
"Yeah, we re almost done." Said Ninhursag.
"Yep, yep~!" Arafunn showed up out of nowhere, scaring Faylen and Celica.
"Uwaah!" Celica cried in shock, as Faylen held her with her arms.
"Idiot! You scared her!" Faylen reprimanded her the older elf who carefreely smiled.
"Oh my, sorry. I didn't meant to scare you, dear." Arafunn said with a gentle smile. "Will you forgive me if I give you this delicious apple I just found around?"
"A-Apple!" Celica suddenly grabbed the apple from Arafunn's hands, wolfing it down quickly. "Uwah… So sweet!"
