63 Mission Successful! (2/2)
”Bring that child and those two warriors over to my hut. I wish to learn about how they were able to save so many of our comrades with only the three of them.” Giving out his orders, the Chieftain sat back down on his throne before chowing down on a large piece of meat.
In this moment, Maria seemed to be in her own little world. ”There is no way that kid was able to slay the Spider Queen so soon. What could have happened in there?” she pondered as she sat there silently next to her father and mother.
-Back in the center of the village-
”That is right, if it wasn't for Leo saving us, we would never have been able to come back here. If any of you declare him to be an outsider, we will leave along with him. He is the true hero and deserves to be treated as such!” Christopher shouted out to the citizens of the village who were giving the group a barrage of questions.
Hearing his words, all the villagers in this moment had their minds made up as well. For this person to do such a kind act for their village, he wouldn't be treated as anything but one of their own. And one by one the villagers surrounded Leo to personally thank him for his wonderful service.
Leo felt incredible relief once Christopher explained that he was the main individual who helped orchestrate this rescue mission. His previous experience in the other village made Leo wary about how this one would treat him. However, it seems that due to being in a less stressed environment, that these villagers were more appreciative.
”Warriors, the Chieftain wishes to meet you three right away. He is very pleased with what you have done for this village and wants to discuss how this all came about.”
Suddenly a group of heavily armed individuals surrounded the crowd, trying to push them away from the group so that they could properly escort them to their leader. These individuals were considered the peak warriors of the village currently and were gifted above average armor and weaponry.
Looking towards Christopher and the other warrior he rescued, Leo wanted to see their faces hearing about the Chieftain wanting an audience with them. To his surprise, smiles appeared on both warrior's faces as they nodded and started to walk towards the northern part of the village.
Seeing that both warriors were relaxed, Leo followed behind them. Though he wouldn't lower his guard quite yet, he was interested in meeting Maria again and meeting her father for the first time.
