Chapter 452 - The Last Camp Part 1 (1/2)

Andromeda heard the ringing on her ear, and she stopped walking and turned around to the other mountain where it was located. She shook her head. Maybe she heard it wrong. Was it calling her?

”Andy,” Andel called.

”Yeah,” She waved at him.

”What is it?” Fin asked and then he also looked at the other mountain.

”I—I just felt like I need to go there.” She said and her heartfelt like burning as she stepped another away from it.

”I can feel that too,” Fin told. ”But we need to get back to our camp and plan for our next step.”

Andromeda nodded. In just a few kilometers is their camp. Andel squeal excitedly and he climbed up and then said that everything is a mess. It's more than a year or two that they last visit here. Andy looked at another tree that is growing. It's still little but it's going to be bigger than the others.

Fin and Andel went on fishing for tonight and Moira lifted a drink for them. It will be their last night to enjoy the scenery because later—they need to face them and fight them to keep them away from the entrance.

But she needed to get that scroll first. They were already grilling the fish with spices that they bought from the town. Freya is rubbing her hand as Fin distributes the big fishes. Each of them has separate fishes and then with an additional of barbequed vegetables.

They eat and drink while Andel is busy with flying his drone to check the surroundings.

Soon, Andel, Moira, and Freya get drunk and they are snoring on the corner. Andy keeps them away from bugs.

”They will be in chaos.” She said.

”That is because you will die, I will die—” He scoffed. ”This is completely chaotic. It's so ironic that we were all best friends. Having fun like a real family, eating, drinking, and celebrating. Then soon, we will start killing each other.”

”What can we do?” Andy grinned. ”We need to leave this world earlier than we thought.”

”No one is dying!” Andel said as he sat up. He goes back to his sleep and they laughed.

”They will keep killing each other,” Andy muttered.

It was hidden, Viktor entered the room and found three old men laughing. He tilted his head and looked at the two legendary men. One is General Mondragon and the other is General Pattinson.

”Father?”

His father looked up at him. He seemed to enjoy it.

”Oy! Viktor! Glad that you are here. Your brother is already in Madagascar hunting whatever Dragon treasure it was.”

”It's the Dragon Lair.” General Mondragon told. ”It's where our old tribe lives. It's sacred and the dragon is in there.”

”You mean, real dragon?” Viktor asked as he sat down on the vacant chair. They are playing pokers and what are they betting?

”Yes.” General Mondragon said. ”Bring the little man something to eat,”

”I'm not little.” Viktor groaned.

”You are still little to me. You are still in college, right?”

”Yes.” He answered and he took a glass of milkshake that was served to him. ”Seriously?”

”Yes—you need to work hard to get the empire back and probably kick your brother's ass.” Old Kuznetsov said.

A knock on the door makes them stop and a boy at the age of fourteen or so entered as he frowned on his tablet.

”Grandpa, did you just buy a blue pill?”

”What?” Grandpa Pattinson asked. ”No, I didn't!” He said. ”Go back to your room or I'll send you back to your parents.”

”But—it's bad for your health. Sarah told me to monitor you and your damn pills!”

”This is Owen, my grandson from my second son.” He introduced briefly.

”Oh—” Owen glanced at him. ”You are twenty years old or so?”

”Twenty-five.” He said.

”Oh, and you are still in college?” Owen asked.

”I take lots of degrees.” He added.

”You are focusing more on women than your studies. Don't freak me out with your degrees.” Old Kuznetsov said and smacked the back of his head. ”From now on, you are studying with the Mondragon and Pattinson to train yourself.”

”To train from what?”

”When you took over our Empire you need to learn some safety measures and some strategy.”

”My granddaughters are good at that,” Manuel said and grinned.

”Yes, and they lack patient from it,” Owen added. ”Grandpa, what are these blue pills for?” He asked again.

”It was for us men who wanted to increase our s.e.x.u.a.l drive. It's good for f.u.c.k.i.n.g.” Manuel suddenly stopped and glared at his grandson. ”You little brat! You are using that reverse psychology that your sister taught you.”

”I am and it works well. You are so busted to Sarah. I'm calling her.” Owen opened the door to exit.
