[ 8/150 mins until Dao dies 2:30 after entering the Challenger Gem]
Nushi stood up, but so did Kimera and Nixi. Jilly was also looking at Nushi appraisingly, questioning what was going through her head.
Unfortunately for Nushi, she was subject to all the horrible ways that the others thought she was going to die now, but that would not be the case. She was close and had been for a while now but had wanted to wait for Kazz.
"Stop it, all of you! I can see the wild concoctions you are all whipping up in your head, but Hydie and I will be fine. Both of us are more than capable of handling anything that comes our way. I am about to increase my rank as a demon as well, but I don't know what that will mean for me after I birth Kazz's memories," Nushi explained to all of them, and the Hydie spoke up.
"I can protect her; in the short time since coming here, I have been able to drastically improve my barriers, and my father couldn't even penetrate them before that! I will keep Nushi safe!" Hydie said as she walked up behind Nushi.
Hydie put her hands on Nushi's shoulders and slowly melted into Nushi's body, covering her body up to her chin. Hydie's twin elemental body started to churn, and her blue changed to pink and gray clouds started to form around Nushi.
"The two will be fine, you will go and get your son, and we will take care of the creatures around here. Be safe, Veronica, and we will meet up with you after, and we can go help him end this all," Jilly told Nixi, and she tossed up her hands but didn't complain further.
"I will go look for Nushi after I drop Nixi with the others, and I can help get her there faster," Veronica said as her head and body started to grow back into the body of a giant winged lion with a human woman's face.
"We will be moving fast, so don't worry about it, just make sure that everyone is safe at the castle. After today, nothing is ever going to be the same for us," Nushi said to the women around her, but Jilly laughed.
"Everything changed the day that he walked out of that hole in the ground, but I understand what you mean for you Demons, and I also and tied to Dao in debt, so that will be different," Jilly said, and then she bent down and hugged Nushi, "Be careful, I know you can handle yourself, but you are also carrying some of Kazz's memories. Make sure that they don't get hurt or damaged, meaning don't take risks."
Nushi hugged Jilly back and then separated as Kimera was helping a complaining Nixi up onto Veronica's back. Keri was already up there with Kieta was being held by her and blushing.
Once the three were up, Kimera also climbed up, and then Veronica took off, flying into the air. The trip would only take them fifteen minutes, so Jilly called Lani over and turned to Lizy.
"What do you think we should do to keep them from charging the village?" Jilly asked.
"What if Lani and the girls throw something behind them to distract them, and we can run around and create the same kind of barrier as before. Then we don't even need to fight them if they can't get to the village, but it will keep us here for now," Lizy said as Lani and the girls showed up.
"Well, there is really no point in us getting involved with the others, and once we have everything secured, we can go back to working on the ship. We also have to wait here for Hydie to get Missy back to the house. Another thing that man needs to do is get all the women in his care, so they aren't restricted," Jilly said and then shook her head in wonder.
This kind of thing would have never mattered before, but Kass wanted to keep the girls all close to him. So, he helped them, but lately, he lacked duties, but that was to be expected.
'Lani, can you and the girls make some things that can be thrown as distractions, and then we will set up a barricade behind you," Jilly explained, and the girls started to make a plan.
Nushi and Hydie were already providing the first distraction as Nushi dashed down the roads at high speed and then turned to angle northeast. There were blue demons up ahead, and they saw her right away and started to scream and roar.
Spells started to form in hands, while others rushed with bare hands, but Hydies body was bright red now. The undulating clouds around her started to grow as she suddenly burst forward in a flash of speed.
Everything happened in seconds for Hydie, but time moved differently for Nushi since she had been finally able to use her magic at will. Training with the magic had become simple once she had received her reading System.
Rather than simply reading the words, she had been able to feel what the person had been writing them had meant. After learning how to craft and control the lightning, a section talked about using the lightning on your own body, but the book warned against it.
Nushi, of course, was of the secret mad scientist's variety. The type to get an itch and be required to scratch it or so help anyone that came near her.
Not stupid, Nushi had used her abilities, and after getting to actually talk to her grandmothers, she had figured it out. Now, for short bursts, Nushi could charge her body to go much faster than it usually could.
Dashing from one person to another, she lightly tapped each male and female demon in the area that was in her way.. Each tap left an contact point, chaining each one, and after tapping fifteen demons, Nushi used what she had to put some distance between her and the Demons, heading to Kazz.
