Chapter 581 Returning To The Village
Unable to endure their words any longer, Seth snorted, turned around, and strode toward the Prismerian Kingdom, his voice lingering in the air.
"We are preparing to take Saria out of the mountain right now. You should be the one to oversee such an important task as the leader."
Understanding the urgency of the situation, Orion promptly directed the Crystalforge Clan's Elite warriors to gather the artefacts thoroughly before returning to the Prismerian Kingdom.
Orion intended to meet with the Princess of the Garden and the others before his departure.
….…
Orion stood beside Fifi, with the Princess of the Garden, Maya, Merida, and Crystalia before him.
Elysia hadn't fully recovered yet, while Madam Seraphina was still working in the Prismerian Healers' Sanctuary, so neither of them could be present.
"I still want to give a proper introduction even if you have already met them," Orion said to Fifi, introducing them individually.
"This is the Princess of the Garden, Maya, Merida, and Crystalia. Everyone, this is Fifi; she is also my partner and your elder sister," Orion added.
Before they could respond, Fifi immediately walked forward and pulled them all into one big hug.
"Although he might not look like it, he has a lot of partners back home, so be prepared to meet the rest of your elder sisters," Fifi said, hugging them warmly before releasing them.
Although the Princess of the Garden was the only one unaware of the number of partners Orion had, she wasn't exactly surprised.
After all, she would be sharing her body with a goddess during their next penetration and time for giving birth, so she simply nodded and responded, "Of course, we will always be happy to meet our sisters."
Fifi heard the Princess of the Garden's words and nodded in response. She could tell the woman in front of her was even more mature than Grandma Ingrid or Grandma Celia.
As for how Orion had managed to get such a woman to be so in love with him, Fifi understood that he had his own ways; otherwise, she wouldn't have fallen in love with him.
Meanwhile, the rest of the ladies nodded in response, immediately agreeing with the Princess of the Garden's words.
"I'll find a way to introduce you to the rest of your sisters as soon as possible. In the meantime, Fifi will educate you on the things you need to be aware of—both our culture and the Village," Orion said.
Even though he knew they would all want to follow back to the Village without hesitation, Orion didn't see the need to move them immediately since the Prismerian Kingdom would fall under the jurisdiction of the Village in the future.
Besides, both sides needed to slowly gain an understanding of each other so that their first meeting wouldn't be as awkward as he had imagined.
The women all nodded with eagerness in their eyes, especially Crystalia.
Crystalia had been one of the few who had witnessed Orion's strange behaviour when he had first entered the Prismerian Kingdom and was naturally curious to understand why he had behaved that way.
In short, she wanted to gain a more in-depth understanding of her husband, and learning about his birthplace was the best way to accomplish that.
"The others must be waiting for me right now, so I need to start going to arrive early," Orion said. He walked up to each of them, hugged them tightly, and gave them a goodbye kiss on the forehead before moving on to the next person.
Although there were many things that Orion wanted to do right now, such as figuring out what to do with Aerialia's blood that he had collected, arranging a search party to explore all the entrances leading to the upper region of the mountain for more artefacts, and questioning the Princess of the Garden to cross-check if everything Aegis of the Arctic Deity had said was true, and to understand if she knew Naka and any experiences related to 'the invasion'.
However, for now, he also needed to bring Saria back to the Village as soon as possible and figure out how to settle the Prismerion race outside the mountain.
The Princess of the Garden, Merida, Maya, and Crystalia nodded in understanding.
Orion turned his head and looked at his partners, including Fifi, who was waving goodbye to him one last time as he made his way out of the Garden.
….…..
Upper region of the mountain
"Be careful; not even a branch should be hurt," Seth ordered as he led the two warriors who had helped them carry the tree from the Prismerian Kingdom to the outside of the mountain.
On the tree branches were several Lipry fruits and a handful of Kalna fruits, which had been left unplucked. Meanwhile, below the tree, the roots were held within a large crystalline vase with two handles on each end, which the warriors used to support the tree and move it forward.
Since tree nymphs had special control over their tree, moving the tree out of the Garden wasn't the problem; the challenge came with moving up to the upper regions of the mountain through the narrow passage.
To avoid any incidents, a whole new passageway, large enough to accommodate several people moving up and down the mountain, was created easily with the help of the Crystalforge Clan's Elite warriors and the other warriors.
It only took a few minutes for Orion to spot the Orion's skies flying high up in the sky before the others noticed it, too.
Holding Saria in a princess carrier, Orion pondered how to get their attention from down below.
Seth broke the silence, saying, "I will attract their attention; everyone, get ready." He activated his gift, and instantly, the ground before his feet cracked as molten lava seeped out, spreading outward.
Seth transformed the mountain terrain before him into a molten pit, then swiftly hardened the ground below to prevent it from seeping into the mountain. Controlling the molten lava, he stretched it into the sky like a wave before promptly solidifying it.
