Chapter 52 - 52. The Probe Into The Troll Caves. (1/2)
After the children had left after their dinner, the three of us remained at the Great Hall as we discussed with one another on Prius' trip to Aermagh. He eventually took a vial out of his pocket and presented it on the table.
”Don't worry my good friend, your awakening from your deep sleep was not blown or discovered and with just a small fry like you, the Ruler of Aermagh had totally forgotten about the sole survivor from the Battle of Qodegh.”
”Do you think a Ruler like him, so high and mighty would remember such an event after 6 months? For all, he knew everyone did not survive the Battle of Qodegh and that battle, even though the dark elven had vanquished from its existence, was just a small significance to him.”
”Don't you miss Aermagh, my young friend?” Prius finally stopped yapping as he looked at me as he toyed and twirled the little vial in his hands.
”Ach... Don't talk about the Battle of Qodegh at all to me. It is just a figment of my memory and all I need was to either push it down the back of my memories or when I eat, it would be digested and would come out with my poop when I take a dump.”
”Furthermore, I do not have any recollection of any significant others in Aermagh as I'm just a drop of water in the ocean. I'm not like Quagmire who goes around and say 'giggetty giggetty goo' and then humps with every girl I've met in the taverns, pubs, bar, whorehouses et cetera. Hah hah hah... ”
”By the way, that's the vial you were talking about to put the water from Fountain Of Youth, is it? Heh... You don't have to play physiological games and twirl that thing in your hand just to spark my interest. By the way, it would be good for me to grind for something else besides the goblins.”
”Will you stop yapping one after another and get to the point? I'm getting such a headache especially when Webnovel had introduced a Writing Contest that started today for 7 days and so far they had recorded that the author had managed to write 2914 words for the past 2 chapters he had submitted after 2359hours today. ” it was Patricia's turn to read from the script and her voice sounded rather monotonous after reading it.
”How do i sound like? Is it original as before or it is like those news broadcasters on BBC that read the news bulletin every hour for about 5 to 10 minutes as such?” Patricia asked as she saw us buried our heads in our hands and listened her narrate the script like an old broadcaster that was seemed forced to read with no expressions at all.
”Alright Prius, please explain the deal here slowly so that Trish here could understand and then take the necessary actions. I had placed the 3 jugs of flavours so that it would keep her and the children busy for the next 3 days, am I right?”
”Yes, thank you for the heads up. I've also taken note of the measurements and would stick to it and make the necessary preparations. The children and I had completed the processing and packing of 500 of these Peppermint 'Sparklie' Toothpaste.” Patricia said as she rechecked her schedule of work and confirmed it with me as she showed her iPhone 11 and I saw all the tasks she had entered was true and correct.
”Alright, I guess the speech baton had been passed to me now. OK, let's continue. This vial is supposed to be filled with a single drop of the water from the Fountain Of Youth that was believed to be situated deep inside the Troll Caves. This assignment was not meant for me alone as the rest of the Guild Halls representatives in Northern and Southern Ingmery was present as well.”
”It had been so long since the men of Ingmery had taken arms so it seems that it would be sometime before they could assemble some men to go into those caves. Furthermore, the trolls there have much thicker armoured skin towers about three times our height and had long arms and short legs like a chimpanzee.”
”A lot of adventurers perished because of their incapability to conquer past a few of these trolls with their experience level. The Ruler of Aermagh required just one drop, that's all. A single drop would pull 40 years back and he would be a 25-year-old ruler again.”
”So if a 41year old man takes a single drop, he would be a 1-year-old baby, is that right? Any younger than that he would be a spermatozoon already.” I asked and wondered if it could be true. If this Fountain of Youth exists, Joan and the head infirmary could make the citizens of Ingmery be young and full of Vitality and take MR P to improve their Virility and boost the Fertility and also increase the population here.
”Heh...as what I used to say, 'the bigger they are the harder they fall'. Alright, is there any due date that I should know of?”
