Chapter 681 Persuasive Wives
"Four-eared elves? Was the caravan the invasion that made you leave home early this morning?" Greta asked curiously, her brow raised inquisitively.
She had been working throughout the night, so she was only made aware of the incident by Seraphina when she arrived this morning. Though she had been concerned for her husband's safety due to the invasion, she had only managed to calm down after reminding herself of his strength and the security of their new home.
However, learning that the invaders were the four-eared elves piqued her curiosity.
Seraphina listened intently with a curious expression, awaiting Orion's response. Having only read about other races from the 'Ancient Codex' and having encountered only humans, the original inhabitants of this world, along with the tree nymphs and the Guardians of the Garden – the pixies, she was particularly intrigued by the four-eared elves. Learning that they visited the Village yearly for trade had only heightened her curiosity.
"Yes, but it wasn't an invasion…" Orion responded, his arms encircling Greta's waist as he calmly recounted the events that unfolded from the moment he left home to the occurrences in the training ground.
As he concluded his explanation, Seraphina and Greta stared at him, dumbfounded and shocked.
"Are you saying all of that happened today?" Greta asked, her voice tinged with disbelief as she leaned against Orion's frame, eyes fixed on him.
Orion nodded in affirmation.
"And are the gods' chosen currently in the city?" Seraphina's eyes widened with disbelief as she asked Orion, her expression intense.
Observing Seraphina's excited yet incredulous expression, Orion couldn't help but sigh inwardly as he nodded in response.
He could anticipate what was going on in her mind.
Excitement surged through Seraphina as she rushed beside Orion, wrapping her arms around his neck.
"Can you take me to them now?" Seraphina asked eagerly.
The Devourer's bracelet!
The Diluted Vylkr energy!
At first, it was the Village warriors she knew who could utilize and control the vicious Vylkr energy. However, no matter how often she attempted, she couldn't fathom how they managed such control.
Now, with a group of individuals in the city capable of harnessing and controlling this energy, she was fascinated and excited, especially after learning that they required something called a 'Devourer's bracelet,' along with a Devourer's heart and several other components, to utilize the Vylkr energy. How could she not be excited?
This could finally provide insight into the workings of the Vylkr energy and why only a select few could use it to such an extent.
However, Orion shook his head in response.
"I don't think it would be appropriate to disturb them right now, especially since they just arrived today and are still settling in," Orion said. He could discern the thoughts racing through Seraphina's mind just by glimpsing into her eyes.
Seraphina bit her lip, then sighed lightly. "Alright, I'll give them a month to settle properly in the city. But after that, you have to promise to help me convince one of them to allow me to study their bracelet and look at one of their vials," she said.
Although she could have attempted it herself, why bother with the stress when her capable husband could handle it?
Orion furrowed his brows. "I don't think it will be easy to get them to agree," he replied, sighing lightly.
Orion recalled Leif's explanation; while Leif had shown them the compartment on his Devourer's bracelet for his vial, he had refused to reveal his Devourer's heart. So, he was uncertain whether they would agree to such a request.
"You know, I'm not just saying this because I want to study their Devourer's bracelet, but also because if we can learn how the diluted Vylkr energy works and how it was diluted, then we might make considerable progress in figuring out what caused the strange occurrence with the potential four-star Vylkr vine," Seraphina said, tightening her embrace around Orion before sealing her words with a kiss.
Greta observed the scene and sighed tiredly. However, she saw nothing wrong with Seraphina's suggestion, not only because she was curious about how the Devourer's bracelet and the diluted Vylkr energy worked but also because the potential discovery could aid the Village's warriors.
With this in mind, she also helped ensure that Orion agreed.
Feeling Orion's hardened penis through their tulga pressing against her ample buttocks, Greta slowly shifted her waist up and down, grinding her protruding buttocks on top of her husband's bulge.
Within a few minutes, Orion's shaft throbbed.
"Alright… Alright… You both win! However, don't hold your expectations too high because there's no guarantee that they will even entertain or agree to my request," Orion responded, breaking the kiss and proceeding to pinch Greta's thighs lightly.
"I'm satisfied with whatever results as long as you speak with them," Seraphina said, leaning in to lightly seal her lips against Orion's again before pulling back and shifting her attention towards Greta.
"Thank you," she whispered.
"No problem," Greta responded, whispering with a smile.
With this, she was sure that her relationship with Seraphina had grown closer and stronger.
Orion, however, was already contemplating how to approach Patriarch Rylan and the gods' chosen to explain the matter to them.
But he inwardly sighed and shook his head tiredly, feeling a headache stirring at the back of his skull. 'I'll think about it later,' Orion thought.
Retracting his arms from Greta's waist, Orion focused on examining the potential four-star Vylkr vine with a plan forming in his mind, which was why he had waited behind.
"Can you bring the cylinder down again? There's something I'd like to try out," Orion asked, his eyes fixed on Seraphina.
Although Seraphina seemed slightly puzzled about Orion's intentions, she nodded in response. Turning around, she walked towards the furnace and lowered the heat before gently grabbing the potential four-star Vylkr vine in a tightly sealed container that she hadn't experimented or tested with yet. Bringing the container back, she placed it on the table before Orion.
