Oh! and Thank you Ekim, Nightrise, Sknasen, Fredrik Andersson, and WhiteGlint211 for supporting me on *******!!)

While you rub your painful cheeks, you wonder how does Saria know where you were? And the answer was obvious when you saw a super ninja maid looking calm as always. Then Linda turns her head toward you and gives you a warm smile, but you don't felt any warm from her. You turn to look at the beastkin, and you saw that they were bowing Saria on their keen.

"Sigh…..Even though I said, I came as a regular elf.....how troubling." (Saria) she cups her cheek and slightly shakes her head. You want to shout "It's because you always wore the fancy dress, of course, they're going to notice that you're someone important!" but you keep your mouth shut because you don't want to get into any more trouble.

Beep* beep* you check your HB, and it tells you that Lenna and Helen are right above you. You look up and saw Crimson Titania and Thor both hoving in mid-air. Lenna does a superhero landing which surprises everyone in the whole camp. Then she slowly stands up while spreading her wings out which cool as hell.

"The Crimson goddess…." One of the refugees spoke, then everybody slowly gathers around this way. Then bulky black armour slowly descends down with an electric spark around the whole armour, which also cool.

Lenna armour folds itself back into a bracelet. Kaguya, Ku and Kaoru had confirmed their suspicion that the one who saves them as an elf. But they wondered just how these elves become so powerful. Ten years ago, the Beastkindom and Eilven were both equal in power, but now the beastkin is bowing to toward Saria.

" Your majesty. What are you doing here in the wasteland?" (Lenna)

"I should be asking you that question and....." Saria turns toward the black armour suit. "Good for you, Helen." (Saria) she looks for a sec and turns back toward the beastkin.

"How do you know it was me?" (Helen) her armour is folding itself back into an HB while Helen walks toward her side. The beastkin see the dark elf walk toward Saria and instantly remember that the king of Elf known as Helen, she was the strongest warrior in the kingdom who haven't lost even once.

"Hmph, I'm going to fall for you dumb prank again." (Saria) she rolls her eye, ignoring Helen and focus the beastkin in front of her. "Please everyone, raise." (Saira) the beastkin leaders stand up and nervously avoid eye contact with Saria. "Now then...…what brings you all to my kingdom." (Saria) she sits down and crosses her leg on a very well crafted chair which was not there a second ago and since Linda is here all you can do is throw logic out of your brain.

"I know you hate us beastkin because we the one who started the war, but please let the innocent people take shelter in your kingdom, they have nothing to do with the conflict between us. We are not part of the Toku dynasty, and all of us here despise that false king!" (Kaguya) she looks at Saria who calmy enjoy her tea.

"I don't hate your kind Mystic fox-san, I hate your king! What his name again? Was it Odana or Toku?" (Saia) she turns toward Linda, who is standing right beside her.

"Its Ieyasu Toku, your majesty." (Linda)

"Yes, that him! And if I remember correctly, his physics is similar to Tony-san." (Saria) she turns to look you, who is still rubbing your red, painful cheeks. "Anyway, do you all even know how the war started?" (Saria) she turns back and stares at nervous nine tails fox kin.

"My apologies, we truly don't know, but he announced that your majesty tries to assassinate him during your visit at Beast capital." (Kaguya)

"Of course, he would say that since he is the one that fails to kill me." (Saria) she sips her tea. Some beastkin were shocked when they heard what the elf queen said, and some already guess that the late king lie. Even the Beastkin tops know this.

"Two years after he ascended to the throne, he invited me to discuss great importance. And when I got to his palace, he springs his traps. He thinks that I'm a helpless ruler who falls right in his web and the fool even forgot that I'm a high mage. So I play along to pretend to be powerless so that I could find out what he up to, at first he burst out a bunch of nonsense like how grand his scheme and how smart he was, blah, blah, blah. Finally, he reveals his objective. It is what I expected he try to force me to be his wife as a hostage so he could rule the elves. After that, I reveal my power and that coward run the first sight of my magic circle. I destroy half of the palace and return to my kingdom. The next day he declares war on us and announced that I try to kill him and he vows to make my whole family his slave." (Saria) you heard the anger on her last part.

"Your majesty Ieyasu is already dead if you can let my people take refuge. I will personally go back and retrieve his head for you." (Kaguya)

"No need, I already forgot about that fool, and I already decide to help you." (Saria) She raises her cup and Linda pour more tea for her.

"Please! We will do anything! Don't abandon us -???? did you said you would help us?" (Kaguya)

"Yes….sipppss*" (Saria) she calmly drinks her tea.

"Thank you so much! Your majesty!! If there anything you would like for us to do, please don't hesitate to ask!" (Kaguya) she and other beastkin bows to Saria with gratitude.

"Actually…..there one thing you must do." (Saria)

"And that is?" (Kaguya) she looks at Saria with a committed look.

"You must apologise for your last king action toward me and my kingdom in front of the whole public." (Saria) she said with a serious tone. The beastkin leader was stun when they heard Saria request. The beastkin are a proud race. They would not bow down to anything easily, especially something thing that they did not do.

Seeing beastkin silence, Saria sigh. "I know it's not a favourable request, but as you know, my people heard Ieyasu threatening speech and some even lost their love one to the first wave of war, so for yours and my people to code exist. This apology is required." (Saria) she stood up from her sit and look beastkin for a reply.

"I'll do it! I will do as you requested!!" (Kaguya) she looks at Saria with determination. The Karin nod and step forward.

"So would I!!" (Ku) the catkin step forward next to Kaguya.

"I shall join!!" (Kaoru) the bearskin shout.

"It's our fault that the war between Elf and beastkin started. At that time, we only care about our territory and nothing else which why we did not see a snake slowly gaining power. In the end, our whole kingdom is destroyed because we were only thinking about ourselves. I, Ishikawa Karin, will also like to make public apologise as well!" (Karin) her face also full of determined. Then the other beastkin start to step in.

"If Karin-sama is going then I'm going as well!!" (Run) she and her sister stand close behind Karin.

"Me too!" (Rabbit kin)

"I will!!" (Deer Kin)

"Me as well!!" (Dog kin)

"I will join!!" (Lizard kin)

And a few minutes later every one raises their hand eagerly, and even children are joining in, most of them just following the adult example.

"Excellent!! Then tomorrow, please select 50 of your people, and my trusted maid will come and pick you up, and after that, we will discuss on the beastkin situation." (Saria) she happily presses her hand together.

"Your majesty, all of us really appreciate what you did us, and we are forever in your debt." (Kaguya) she and all the beastkin bow Saria with respect.

"To be honest, the reason I'll help you all is mostly because of Tony-san over there." (Saria) she gestures toward the human teen who is cupping both cheeks. "If I reject you all, Tony-san would definitely be mad at me." (Saria) she looks at you with warm affection. "Now can I borrow one of the tents I need to make some arrangement." (Saria) she looks at Linda, who is smiles and bowing toward her.

"Ku, could you lead her majesty to my tents?" (Kaguya)

"Of course! Right this way, your majesty!" (Ku) she gestures toward the tent, then Saria and Linda toward Kaguya tent. As Linda pass Kaguya, she felt that she saw Linda somewhere before but can't remember where so she stops thinking about it.

When Saria left, the beastkin turn toward you and look at you confusing face. The beastkin wonder why this human is so special? Helen saw the bearskin looks and smile proudly and step forward.

"He he he he! You all probably wonder, why my wife hold Tony-kun in very high regard? Then let me tell you!!" (Helen) she began telling the tale about you to the beastkin. And their mouth drop opens every second knowing that you have built the impossible. Such as a powerful suit, portal, high tech architecture, an artefact allows anyone to use magic and the mind breaking thing is that most everything you did was none magic but advance scientific engineering.

Even Karin eyes were burning with pure jealousy, for the first time in her life, she curses the gods for not sent you in her territory, and she is a non-believer. Kaguya and others were also jealous of the elves but not as much as Karin. When Helen saw those envy eyes of the beastkin, her body trembles with ecstasy as if she had orgasms. Lenna facepalms herself when she Helen reaction.

You, on the other hand, looking at you HB seeing the drone and battle droid coming closer toward the camp.

"Something is coming this way!!" (Leopard kin) she is pointing at the incoming drone in the sky. Before the panicking start, you quickly shout "It ok! They are mine!"

("Aisha did you scan anything book or scroll?") you call her though your mind.

"Yes, there are mostly history, battle tactic, aquaculture, agriculture, engineering and a small amount about magic." (Aisha)

(Perfect, I'll have a look later.") Both drone and battle droid was carrying a big and small object and landed on the ground. They put a different kind of item down and went to line up in orderly fashion. The beastkin feel admiration and fear at the same time when they saw the battle droid because you made them, and these droids have enough power to stop an army of shadow spawn.

"Karin, this is some of your and your people stuff that carries over from your place." You turn toward her and smile.

"Tony-dono…..thank you so much." (Karin) she smiles warmly at you and bows, then turns around and walk toward her people. A few minutes later, the beastkin that came with you from the castle come over and look for there things. Which is not much, they were mostly clothes and food. When the beastkin found some of their stuff, they came to thank you and gone to join the others. Karin and her soldiers came and looked for their things as well.

As you look around you, saw the tiger kin name Run who seem to be searching for something, she went on and on and on to the different pile and still can't find what she is looking for.

You then walk toward her "Do you need help?" she turns her heads toward you.

"...…..No need, I find it myself." (Run) she looks with hostile eyes at first, but she closed her eyes as if she is trying to calm herself down and then she turns around and dig through the pile of clothes and sack bag. A few minutes later Run movent seem to be quicker, you guess that she has found what she is looking for.

"Got it!" (Run) she happily picks up yarn doll and hugs it with all her might. You notice some strange about the yarn doll, and the first thing is that the doll has the same look as Karin, but the weird part is that the doll had a black dido attach on its crotch.

"What? You got a problem?" (Run) she turns toward you with a mocking look in her eyes. She even not trying to hide the Karin doll.

"Oh…...numm, nothing, nothing at all." You avert your eyes and pretend you never saw the sex doll.

"Hmph" (Run) she turns around and walks away. You smile and shake your head because you can't judge a person by their cover.

After all the stuff nearly gone Kaguya and Kaoru are nervously heading toward you.

"Tony-sama...we have no right to say this, but we would like to request your help again." (Kaguya) Both she and Kaoru bow down to you.

"Sure, if it is within my power, I'll be happy to help." You smile at them.

"We heard your scientific ability from your king." (Kaguya) she struggles to pronounce the word scientific. "And if possible we would like to know where our lord is?" (Kaguya)

"No problem.....Ummm who the last person she with?"

"That would be Ku our Catkin" (Kaguya) you pop up and holo screen for them to see. The image shows a bird eyes view of Ku waiting outside the tent where Saria and Linda went in.

"Amazing...….." (Kaguya) she and the bear kin look at the holo with wide eyes. They also turn to look at Ku and turn back look at the screen, and they confirm that this is a real-time image with a high up point of view.

"Now I going make this image go backward so please tell if you spot your lord." You press a few buttons, and the lock Ku and the image going full reverse, it shows what Ku is going and where she is but backwards.

"Stop!" (Kaguya) you quickly press pause. The image shows that Ku is in a forest at the edge of the beastkin territory with the refugee. Next to Ku, you saw a beautiful dark blue ponytail hair girl with a grey wolf ear and tail. Your heart skips a beat, and you had a strange feeling, you feel like you know her from somewhere, but you can't remember, and at the same, you felt that she is very precious to you.

"Nobuna?" a word appear out of your mouth.
