Village Head's Debauchery

She twirled the spear a few more times before turning her head back towards Orion.

"I can feel that my attacks would become more powerful if I use my gift and this spear together," Fifi said with amazement.

The weapon in front of her felt so strange that she could feel it, accepting the strange energy from her, which was outright impossible with their standard weapons.

Nevertheless, since they had been waiting here for about two hours, Queen Selene had already explained what Orion had gone to search for and what they were, so she wasn't worried about his safety within the mountain unless he encountered another god like White Flame or came in contact with two-star or three-star Vylkr vines, which was the least likely to happen.

Meanwhile, Selene couldn't help but raise her brows in surprise. 'Such terrifying elemental control,' she thought.

Just like Orion, Fifi had a frightening level of control over water, which would have overwhelmingly surprised her if it weren't for the fact that she had previously witnessed Orion's frightening level of control over his lightning during the Prismerian Young Heirs' banquet.

'They are all abnormal,' Selene thought.

If only eleven of them could completely dominate the Prismerian Kingdom, then Selene couldn't help but imagine what would happen if there were suddenly about fifty, a hundred within their presence.

Wouldn't that be the same as a heavy dark cloud hanging over their heads?

Understanding her kingdom and its citizens, Selene understood that she had to do her best to make sure that none of them made any mistakes; otherwise, they might all be the ones to suffer the consequences.

"Okay, if that's the case, then you can keep it," Orion said without hesitation.

However, Fifi shook her head and threw the spear among the rest of the artefacts.

"Although it's a good weapon, I don't think that it would be helpful to me that much against the Vylkr vines," Fifi explained as she looked at the swords, curved blades, and gauntlets. Then, she added, "I'll wait until you are done with whatever you are doing before I choose which weapon suits my taste."

As Fifi spoke, Orion watched as Seth also walked forward and grabbed one of the curved blades.

He activated his gift, and thick molten lava instantly emerged from his hand, covering the curved black blade, making it look like it had been forged and made for this purpose.

However, within several seconds, as though it could no longer withstand the molten lava on its body, the curved blade slowly began to melt away and fall to the ground until all of it hardened on the ground.

Witnessing this, Seth's lips twitched, thinking that he had just found a good weapon before he snorted and focused his attention on Orion, ignoring the stares around him.

"We have been waiting for almost a day for you to return so that we can quickly return to the village," Seth said.

"Is Saria ready to be moved?" Orion asked.

Since Saria was already bonded to a tree in the Garden, the only way to move her over such a long distance would be to move the tree, too, so he was curious about how they planned to move the tree.

Of course, since they had assured him that they would handle moving Saria by themselves, Orion trusted their competence, especially since they had been warriors before him and had been the ones protecting the Village.

Also, since they all wanted to get Saria back to the Village as quickly as possible to ease the tension, he understood that he had nothing to worry about.

Seth nodded in response.

"We have secured her tree and are prepared to take her up the mountain, moving her back to the Village with the help of Orion's skies. However, because of the weight limit, I don't think we all have the option to leave right now. Some would have to stay behind so that we can transport Saria and her tree back to the Village before we return to pick them up," Seth explained.

Orion quickly understood his words. "So, who have you chosen?" Orion asked.

"No one; we were all waiting for your arrival so you could decide who returns to the village and who stays in the meantime."

Orion nodded, "Since there are only three Orion's skies, we will need one more person who could steer it," Orion said, remembering that there were two warriors they had left outside to take care of the Orion's skies. "And one other person who would help us protect Saria's tree and the Orion's skies, in case we attract any attention from the Vylkr vines, since because of the tree and its weight, it's obvious that we will be flying closer to the ground than natural."

Fifi and Seth immediately nodded at his idea, as they had also been thinking about the same thing.

"Alright, that settles it then. Seth and I, along with the two others still outside, will be the ones to escort Saria back to the Village and inform the key figures about the current situation. At the same time, you and the rest of the warriors stay here and ensure that everything is safe and sound until we return," Orion said.

His voice made a tremble travel through Seth's spine, causing him to clench his hands as he knew there was no way he could avoid Orion reporting to the Village Chief and the rest of the other key figures about their fight.

Meanwhile, Fifi couldn't help but frown.

"Are you sure?" she asked.

Although she doubted that Seth would do anything stupid, since everyone in the group was already aware of the tension between him and Orion, she still didn't want to take any chances, especially since this concerned her partner.

Orion nodded his head resolutely, "With you here, I can have peace of mind that nothing bad is going to happen in the Prismerian Kingdom while we are away," he said, shifting his attention towards Seth.

"Also, since Saria would be with me, I doubt that any unfortunate situation would take place. Otherwise, we might just risk the Village becoming much tenser and more dangerous if anything were to happen to either of us," Orion added.
