Chapter 1853: Water to a Fish (Part 1)

"There is still much I want to do and I want to say goodbye to my parents before I leave. Please, take me with you." Valia said. _{fɾēewebnσveℓ.com}

Lith nodded and the Demon disappeared into one of his feathers, leaving behind a dead corpse and non-imprinted equipment. He stored them both inside his pocket dimension, in the case they contained tracker spells.

"Tell the Captain that I'm sorry, but I'm too tired to keep fighting. I just want to lay down and rest." One after the other, the Demons faded and their souls darted towards the sky.

"Where's Dad?" Lith asked Solus.

"Way ahead of you." She replied. "I've linked the Eyes with the Tracking Mirror and Dad is very close. He's-"

Solus' voice died when the location popped on the tower's map of Mogar. They had never been there before, but the name of the local Lord was written in big bright letters.

"Hogum!" Lith said with a growl. "I thought that my warning after he tried to exploit our absence to seize Dad's lands had taught him a lesson. Even though he's a political rising star, Hogum is still a small-time noble.

"I wonder who or what gave him to courage to make the last mistake of his life."

***

Lustria County, Hogum Household, right after the fight between Lith and Orpal had ended.

Frenon Hogum was a smart man. One mistake had been enough to learn his place in the world and stick to it. He had met Verhen only twice in his life and both times hadn't ended well for him, but at least he had brought his skin back home.

The first time, as a kid, Marchioness Distar had protected him while the second time Verhen was bound by the law and the Queen's Corps would have been his witnesses were Lith to make a move against him.Do you want to read more chapters? Come to p a n d a - n ovel,c.o.m

Now, however, the monster known as Tiamat was angry, hurt, and already a wanted criminal. The law could protect Hogum no more than a sheet of paper could stop a fire and he knew it.

It was the reason he repeated the same question for the umpteenth time since the moment he had ordered his men to capture Raaz.

"Are you sure that this is the right move, darling? Verhen, Tiamat, whatever his name is, is a very dangerous man. If he finds out that his father is here, death is the best thing that could happen to us.

"You have seen those images. His army of shadows would easily enter our house and eat us alive, bit by bit."

"What a morbid imagination you have, darling." His wife, Cenia Hogum, said with a delighted, soft peal of laughter. "Of course it was the right thing to do. How many times do I have to say it?"

She was a gorgeous young woman, 20 years old, about 1.65 meters tall, with luscious blonde hair and blue eyes.

"You didn't kidnap Raaz Verhen, you rescued him when those monsters attacked him. The members of the Queen's Corps were too busy fighting for their lives to protect him at the moment, remember?"

"Yes." He nodded. "But still, isn't it odd that our soldiers were so close to the place where the DoLorean landed and they managed to react faster than the Corps-" His wise doubts died as Cenia pressed her voluptuous breasts against his arm.
