647 A Place to Begin (2)
From Ralais to the rest of the Prismaflow Clan, the Quaztrwraith clan, the Luminaris Clan, the Gemheart Clan, and every Prismerion present, all raised their heads in unison and looked upwards.
These beasts... are genuinely part of the warriors from outside the mountains.
A collective gulp resonated through the throats of clan and family heads present because they realized without a doubt that if a conflict should ever break out between the Prismerions and the warriors, they were sure that they wouldn't have the strength to retaliate.
Immediately, the thought of submitting everything they had to the Queen was reinforced within their hearts.
Meanwhile, at the forefront, Orion had already halted his steps. He placed the box on the ground when he noticed the Village Chief's dragon-like komodo shapeshifting form heading towards them.
As the Village Chief shifted back into his human form, his eyes immediately locked onto Orion's figure. With a broad smile emerging on the Village Chief's face, he appeared before Orion, stunning Queen Selene, Crystalia, and the surrounding Prismerions, as they couldn't even observe his movements.
"Hahahahaha!! I knew you could do it! In only ten days, you've already solved the problem that plagued us for several millennia
—amazing! Amazing!" The Village Chief roared out in happiness as he hugged Orion firmly.
After a while, he released Orion and observed the strange groups of people before him.
His eyes immediately caught sight of Fifi and Seth. He nodded at them before shifting his attention back to Orion.
"Are they…?" The Village Chief began to ask, but before he could complete his sentence, Orion interrupted.
"Yes, they are the Prismerions," Orion said, completing the Village Chief's words for him. "This is Queen Selene and King Brylon, the leaders of the Prismerian kingdom," Orion introduced the royal couple before introducing Crystalia. "And this is Princess Crystalia, the next heir to the Prismerian kingdom."
Orion then turned to them, "Everyone, meet the Village Chief, the head of our Village," he introduced.
Queen Selene, Princess Crystalia, and the other Prismerions unconsciously gulped beside them.
The dragon-like beast that had suddenly shapeshifted into a human was the leader of Orion's Village!
They felt an oppressive weight suddenly pressing down on their shoulders the moment the Village Chief set his eyes on them again.
Queen Selene forcefully squeezed a smile on her lips and attempted to respond, but a loud gust of wind suddenly appeared within their surroundings, interrupting her words.
Queen Selene sensed another presence and immediately shifted her attention to the side to see who it was.
Her eyes fell upon a man almost as muscular as Fifi, tightly hugging Orion like the Village Chief had done, roaring out with laughter into the sky. From her instincts alone, Queen Selene could sense that the man before her was dangerous and even more powerful than the Village Chief.
She could see the Crystalforge warriors beside her gripping their weapons tightly, probably also sensing the same danger.
When Stronghold Leader Zogar released him from his grip, Orion introduced him to Queen Selene and the others, "Everyone, this is the Leftward Stronghold Leader, Stronghold Leader Zogar. He is the leader of the Leftward and Rightward strongholds currently."
Queen Selene and the others felt their breaths hitch as Orion's words fell. They had thought that the Village Chief was also the leader of the warriors; however, from the looks of it, it appeared that he wasn't.
Oblivious about the thoughts currently passing through the minds of Queen Selene and the others, Orion introduced the Royal family to Stronghold Leader Zogar.
Stronghold Leader Zogar nodded in response and carefully scrutinized the figures whom Orion had just introduced to him.
Seeing that she could speak, Queen Selene finally opened her mouth. She smiled as she said, "As the Queen of the Prismerian Kingdom, I speak for all of the Prismerions and would like to show my gratitude for all the help and protection that your warriors and Village have provided us with." Queen Selene bowed deeply at an angle of 90 degrees towards the Village Chief and Stronghold Leader Zogar, showing her ultimate respect.
"As children of Naka, how could we refrain from offering you help when the Prismerions needed it the most? Also, you shouldn't be thanking us, but instead should thank Orion, as none of this would have been possible without him actively pushing for it and bringing it to our attention," the Village Chief responded.
Stronghold Leader Zogar nodded with a huge smile as he briefly shook Orion's shoulders, approving of the Village Chief's words.
Queen Selene and the rest of the Prismerions felt their hearts throb at the Village Chief's words and Stronghold Leader Zogar's confirmation.
Crystalia felt her eyes almost leaking tears, mirroring the emotions of those around her.
Meanwhile, Queen Selene gave Orion a bright, warm smile. She was aware that, no matter how much they thanked him, she wouldn't be able to repay him for what he had done for them.
So, Queen Selene could only ensure that she actively looked for a way to repay Orion for the help he had provided once they had settled down in their new home.
"Don't worry about it; it was nothing," Orion said with a smile.
Unbeknownst to them, the rest of the Prismerions had the same idea and swore to ensure they would fulfil it.
"What's in that box?" The Village Chief asked with furrowed brows, finally noticing the enigma of the box and the strange oppressive energy it gave off, constantly pushing itself on his being.
Orion quickly explained what was in the box to the village chief and Stronghold Leader Zogar.
The moment they heard that a god was locked within the box, which was why all the Vylkr vines were pushed back by an invisible force, their bodies instantly froze.
They inwardly took in sharp breaths before quickly regaining their composure.
"Come on, let's get back to the Village. I am sure there are many things we all want to address before the day ends," the Village Chief said as he briefly looked at the countless Prismerions behind Orion.
He nodded at Orion before turning around and swiftly transforming into his massive green owl form, cutting through the sky and heading straight towards the Village.
