"You really didn't had to." Syllis said. "I'm sorry for my sister, she's very spoiled…"
"It's fine, I've also gotten you something pretty, here." I gave Syllis some earrings. "I know your tribe likes wearing earrings, you're very pretty when you wear some colorful ones."
"P-Pretty?!" Syllis blushed. He looked so much like a girl that it was hard for me to call him "handsome" instead of "pretty". "Thank you, Lady Maria. I will treasure these earrings with my life." He said while blushing.
Uwah, he's so cute!
I ended hugging him and Bellerine together, the two were so cute and fluffy! I ended caressing their fluffy pompom rabbit tails as well, and the fur around their necks and chest was also the fluffiest!
"Uwaahh… Fluffy…" I sighed, feeling in heaven. The two siblings began to giggle at my face.
After I ended distributing the accessories to my closest friends and allies, and most of the fighters and mages, I decided to gather everyone for a small speech where I told them everything that happened recently, the dungeon exploration, the deal with the dwarves, and more.
After explanations were over, everyone seemed to have understood why I took a bit too long to get back from what would had been a short trip there. And that I was also going to go back there in a few more days from now.
Brunhild was also introduced to everyone else, and we asked everyone to treat her with care because she was very timid and delicate due to her age. She got quite embarrassed when our entire population looked at her with surprise and reverence due to being an Ancient Dragon.
After I was done with explanations, the ones I left in charge of various things gathered to report me what has been happening in the village while I was absent, although I saw most of it through my phantom familiars, it was still important to do this to inform everyone else with me.
"After most of the Goblins Evolved into High Hobgoblins they gained special talents within their races. Many more awakened Magic, so we started beginning to repair the walls surrounding the City, we also started building a fortress using the blueprints left behind by the dwarves, we are halfway through. Earth Magic makes things quite easier." Said the Goblin Chief as I nodded.
"The Hunting Team has been proactively hunting any nearby monsters. We recently found a large nest of Ice Wolves threatening our city, who had been stalking around the village, so we exterminated them last night, it was a bit intense but there are only a few wounded that are recovering well." Said Syllis. "Also, we began letting the younglings practice fighting technique and magic skills with Big Rats we have raised as cattle too, also letting them gain some EXP collectively so they can level up." I nodded once more.
"I've been teaching magic to anyone that awakened the talent while Lady Emeraldine was absent." Said the Goblin Elder. "I think I've got the knack for it, hohoho!"
"I see, you guys have done well. What about the Undead?" I asked Silvio and Francesco.
"The Vampires are getting more used to our pace and the werewolf although he doesn't speak he's more cooperative now. We had been cleaning the city as instructed." Silvio said.
"We have also eliminated monsters and guarded the village while the people sleep at night, while sending some groups to more dangerous and unexplored areas to see if we can find anything new, but nothing aside from more monsters have showed up." Said Francesco. "We found a large nest of Frost Bears, and three other nests of Ice Wolves around three kilometers from here though."
"I see, we can't really have so many dangerous monsters so close to our home, we might begin another extermination for those… Though it feels a bit weird, I don't remember there being so many monsters before?" I wondered.
"We also wondered the same, it is as if something is dragging them closer to us." Said Silvio.
"Yeah, we discussed that with Darkbound and the other Undead. He said that he felt a powerful and ominous presence…" Said Francesco.
"Huh… Could it be a high ranked monster, maybe?" I wondered. "I doubt any of our enemies had found us in here, I doubt Vampires can get here either, they would freeze in the snowstorms before catching up to us… But we can't scratch any of such possibilities, we'll send more scouts to check farther areas for now."
"There might also be the possibility of bandits, we found one of the caves having a lot of tools and other things left behind, they were all fresh." Said Syllis. "Could Bandits be in these areas?"
"Maybe because we are so far away from the big countries they might think these areas are safer for whatever they're doing. Bandits will not be tolerated though; we'll also try to find them." I said.
"And that's all I think." Said the Goblin Chief.
"Alright then, you guys are free to relax for now, I've brought an egg with me we need to check like… asap. I also bought some magic tools we can try to use later to try to unfreeze the people, but I have not many hopes." I sighed.
"Wait, an egg?" Asked Syllis.
"Yes, an egg that was left behind by Lucifer's wife… We found one, and it's alive. There's a possibility- no, it is already confirmed that a baby dragon will bless us today, so prepare yourselves." I said, flying away rapidly to my room, where everyone Lucifer, Brunhild, Emeraldine, and Partner were waiting. fre𝑒𝘸𝚎𝚋n૦ѵℯl.c𝒐𝘮
"You're finally back… I think this is as much as the egg can take though, the limit of Crystal's magic is only five people, all five of us." Said Lucifer.
"I see, I had thought about adding the twins but I guess it is more than enough with us." I said. Brunhild was also joining in the awakening of the child by giving her mana.
Gently, I placed the egg over a small pillow, as Lucifer quickly told us to gently place our hands over the egg.
"Now, gently, infuse small quantities of Mana at 3." He said, we all nodded.
"One…"
"Two…"
"Three…!"
