21 RNG: Texan In Another World - V2.8 - While you slept. (2/2)

'Give this heritage'

'Give this world'

'To thee' Second finished speaking and was interrupted by First.

First's voice burst out in a crazed roar, his final sounding before his death.

'PREPARE YOURSELF! THERE IS NOT RETURN'

A strong pulsation of light started to move, slowly at first but the speed just kept increasing and time was distorted by another ten times. Mike's body started to morph and change and return back to its original look. Sometimes he was green, others he was purple, once he had fur and another scales. Mike was changing at a phenomenal rate, the light show in the Roots was enough to alarm Mona.

She yelled out, but no one was answering. The Casino had probably already opened, they were likely busy inside. Mona couldn't abandon Mike if he awake and no one was around he would probably be worried. Mona didn't know what to do for a moment, but.. she laughed and wrote a note to place on the bed.

”I went to get the others, I'll be right back” was all the note said.

Rushing to the ladder, Mona could hear a bunch of yelling outside of the Casino and people starting to clamor. There was a fight going on, and the smell of blood was in the air.

At the top of the ladder, Mona could see the guests inside the Casino gathering inside for protection, they were not interested in being involved in the dispute. Thinking that some guests were out of line, Mona quickly sprang into action and met up with the others.

”Mona!” Jodi shouted while she dodge a punch from a guard. One of the hired guards had tried to switch sides in the the middle of the fight when the City Lord offered them more money if they helped get rid of the girls in charge.

”What's going on! Why aren't you with Mike”

”Did something happen?” Jodi finished her questions and tossed the man to the side. Taking his sword she plunged it into his chest and stared at the City Lord.

”VELLA!” Mona shouted but couldn't located Vella.

”What happened, Cara! Explain to me what's going on.” Mona took a stool and cracked it over a guards head.

”The City Lord doesn't like our level of influence, He wants it for himself. His guards just tried to kill Vella. Harry and Vella led most of them away toward the port.” Cara explained and when the final guard inside was unconscious, they barred the door.

”Everyone, Stay calm. We've blocked the entrance and our people are still outside. Please enjoy refreshments.” Cara motioned to the new recruits and had them pass out drinks.

The Guests were pleased with the manner that the Casino took to protect them, but everyone was a little displeased at the situation as a whole.

It should be said that the Des'ule Ambassadors had experienced their fair share of battle, both at sea against the Otera and the Pirates that sailed the same waters. When they noticed the coordination between the girls, these women, who were defending the Casino from armed soldiers simply amazed them with every move they displayed.

The girls were tactile and gentle, They even tried to spare the ones that really didn't have a heart in the assault against them. Mercy was given without reason, but all they cared about was their customers and the people who were being terrorized inside by the mess brought by the City Lord.

”You're going to pay for all the damages that you and your people have created today.” A voice boomed out above the crowded street.

Guards stopped on both sides and looked to the sky. Vella was channeling an ability the girls hadn't seen. Vella wasn't channeling her charm spell, it was an attack spell.

After some minor mumbling in an obscure tongue, Vella released her attack and directed it at the front line of the City Lord. The beam melted the street and the guards that were not fast enough soon found themselves embedded in molten rock, screaming from incineration.

”I told you before, You will pay for what you've done today.” Vella raised her hand and pointed it directly at the City Lords head.

His head kept expanding, his skull kept growing and when his head was too big his neck snapped. The City Lord, had died on the spot. When his body hit the floor, the guards around him laid their weapons to the ground and surrendered.

”Take them to the City Lords Manner and lock them in the dungeon.” Vella had her Casino Guards escort the enemy survivors to the Basement of the Castle.

There in a locked room, Vella started to interrogate. She had a number of questions and no one was going to stand in her way.

Cara knocked on the Casino Door, signaling the all Clear. The west gate guards that were not on patrol locked the town down and started to route out the remnants. Within 15 minutes they could cover a lot of the City. The City Lord had 50 loyal men, but the Casino had an entire town behind them. Vella was just too intense to publicize, otherwise the City Lord probably would have brought an army.

”We've defeated the City Lords forces, The City is under our control. Mister Ambassador, When you decide you're ready to conduct business you no longer need to visit the Castle, you can come directly to our offices at the Casino.” Cara knew what to do, Vella had been reciting what to say during their late nights for the past month about how when foreigners come they had to be extra nice to them. Only now did she really understand how things were changing around her.

”Cheers!” The Des'ule Ambassadors raised their glasses and dropped another bet on the table.

”Winner!” March lost the hand, but it was good timing and broke the tension.
