Chapter 229 - A scream (1/2)

_________________________________________________

[Sachmis's family house]

[Female paladin point of view]

A duke house, comparable to that of Sir Ceanu Reaves. If something didn't happen to Singa's mother, Sachmis, then he will probably live here, studying to become an upstanding noble. If that indeed happens, how will the goddess plan to let him meet with the other? Will he corporate with them?

”Your highness, what makes you come here to visit us today?” [Old Lion]

An old lion. It isn't obvious to me, but for some reason, the beastman noble react rather strangely. They mention something about resemblance, so, could it be, Singa and this person here bore some resemblance? This old lion here is quite old, maybe he is the biological grandfather to Singa? Nonetheless, he gives the impression of retired noble, living a carefree life

”Can't I even visit my childhood friend house?” [Leogris]

”Of course you can. Please, come inside. King Druser and his companions as well” [Old lion]

”Thank you for the hospitality” [Druser]

”Excuse us” [Female paladin]

Since the king of two prominent kingdoms comes and visit the house, it's only natural for the head of the house or the representative of the house to guide them. Still, I could see a human butler accompanying the old lion. As we are being shown around the house, the old lion bring us all to a nice little resting place in his garden. It's surrounded by nothing but a fiery fire red roses. It burns ever brightly with occasional blue and black flame coming out of it. As for the smells, this type of rose usually will give a very strong rose smell, one that a beastman might not particularly fond of, but even I am surprise by how pleasant the smell is. It must have been carefully selected and breed to give such nice and soft smell, pleasant to the nose

”Please, have a taste of our specially brew rose tea” [Old lion]

”Sachmis's favourite tea. This sure brings back pleasant memories” [Leogris]

”That, it does” [Old lion]

As the two of them go down the memories lane, I can vividly imagine just what kind of person this Sachmis is. Duke's daughter as well as an adventure just like King Leogris back in their younger day. There appear to be another person alongside the two of them, another lion beastman, and the name of that person suddenly escape from the old lion mouth

”Simba... As in, the leader of the true beastman group!” [Female paladin]

”Going down the memories lane make your mouth a little loose isn't it” [Druser]

”Ought to be careful there old man, this is our secret” [Leogris]

”Well, this is just a prologue to our discussion. It would be rather infuriating for them should they not fully understand what you truly wanted to ask” [Old lion]

”!” [Other]

As expected. No wonder he guided us here, not really secluded, but there's rarely any person that comes here, giving an impression of almost secluded place

”Do you know why all of us come here, and what we wanted to ask?” [Leogris]

”Not really. But I guess it has something to do with my daughter, Sachmis” [Old lion]

”Exactly. I hope you can give us the full details, about what happened back then, from your own perspective” [Leogris]

”Very well...” [Old Lion]

[Savel point of view]

”Water sphere!” [Charlotte]

Practicing my water and ice magic with Charlotte, I realize even when I have the bigger portion of Reshir, the holy beast of water blessing, my water and ice magic are still pale in comparison to her

”Water sphere!” [Savel]

”Water love! Water cube! Water triangle!” [Charlotte]

”Hahahaha! This is fun. How about we make a golem!” [Savel]

”Then we should use the marine spawning block straight away!” [Singa]
