But suddenly she froze as two hands suddenly picked her up and flew away with her. Taskmaster rose his eyebrows as groups of females were trying to escape through the window with her.
He turned his eyes and saw Lord Cassian shaking his head. ''Let them have some fun. Isaa, Lilly, you two go as well. Fluffy, you stay with the child. From now on it's your duty isn't it?''
He turned his head and saw even lady Xara floating up and smiled brightly. ''Honey, I will handle things here, you all have some fun!''
Lady Xara turned around and smiled at him while sending small kisses. ''Good. I will reward you later for this.'' And left.
Lord Cassians face suddenly had a huge smile while his two sons started rolling their eyes. ''Father! You can't kidnap the mother again for the whole month. Who will take care of fief?''
He rose his eyebrows and looked coldly at them. ''You two. Who else? Mother and I taught you so many things so we could travel around and have some fun. Or do you want us to work until eternity? When you two get children then you can just do the same, put aside responsibility and just enjoy life. Until then, shut up and rule. After those two brats leave I will go to the Golden Grove with your mother. She deserves some peace.'' His voice was cold but when talking about his wife and his daughters, his eyes softened and a huge smile appeared on his lips.
The two young men just rolled their eyes. ''Father, we need to grow our powers. We can't rule the whole time!''
He chuckled. ''It's two of you. Just exchange positions. Fist one rule then one cultivates and then other rule and so on. It is fine. We will visit you from time to time as well.''
Taskmaster heard their conversation and sighed. Even tho Lord Cassian seemed to be a bit cold to his sons but his voice was filled with pride, love and trust. He let them rule this place as he trusted them on their wise decisions. The way he showed love and care to everyone he loved...no wonder Kendra set the measure high on anyone who shows her love.
If that person is not even near her adoptive father he will lose greatly.
While thinking deeply he suddenly felt a pair of cold eyes staring at him. The twins again...
''My father said you might be interested in our aunt Kendra. Are you one of those disgusting men that like young children? Aunt Kendra usually annihilates those creatures. I wonder why she didn't kill you yet. How interesting... I think our mother will be a bigger problem then Kendra herself. The mother adores Kendra. And if you have some strange ideas about her... The mother likes to go often to punishment island. She might drag you there to play with your soul.'' Then they turned around and left Taskmaster completely speechless.
''Don't take it to your heart. They met Kendra now for the first time and were disappointed as she has no time for them. Not only that, they fear you will take her away. I am Tsssio. Father of those two imps. Literally, imps.'' He pointed at the two backs of the children and Taskmaster saw two small tails whirling around.
With surprise, he turned around and looked at him. ''You are from demon clan?''
Tassio shook his head. ''Not me. I am from the dragon clan. Their mother is a demon. But she really adores everyone here. Lais is one of the demons that contact willingly humans and other races. There will be always some that do not wish to mix. But it is fine. There is no perfect society. Tell me, how much did Kendra tell you about this world?''
Taskmaster shook his head. ''She just brought me and told me she wants to show me one more secret. But how did she do this? What name is of this world and what rank this world actually has?''
Tassio chuckled. ''Too many questions... Your curiosity has been set and that is what she wanted to do. Good. She probably didn't tell you anything as she wanted to show you this world herself. Never mind. Just to tell you one thing. Nothing is as it seems but still possible.''
His strange puzzling words made Taskmaster looked at him in confusion. Tassio just patted his shoulder and left with a huge smile. ''She is still naughty. taking his power away so he could feel human needs. But if he eats something wouldn't other needs be triggered as well? Kendra Kendra...''
As taskmaster lost his powers he couldn't hear low muttering from Tassio. But Lord Cassian did. Oh, she took his powers away? Heeeheheh indeed my child. With smug expression, he stared at Taskmaster that had no idea what was going on and just went to the nearest table that was filled with food.
As he stuffed his belly he forgot that humans might have nee to eat, but where the food goes...
Just while later he sat down and hed his stomach. It felt like some sort of energy was running through his insides and making him have huge pain. Tassio rolled his eyes and tapped him on the shoulder. ''Come with me. You ate too much.''
As they went inside huge bathroom Taskmaster realized what he was hinting at and remembered that time... ''I understand. Please excuse me.''
Tassio nodded seriously and pointed at the corner. ''There is soft toilet paper that Kendra invented. Use it. Afterward please wash your hands. Or if Kendra finds any kind of grime on you, she might throw you into the nearest river or ocean.''
The Taskmaster started laughing. ''Yes, she will.'' And closed the door. After finishing everything and coming out of the bathroom Tassio waited for him.
''You have been assigned a room on the top floor. As you are human it would take too much time to walk up. So use one of the clouds.'' A small cloud appeared from the wall and floated in front of him.
''This...'' He was surprised and turned his head. The whole wall was filled with clouds. ''This... is it possible?''
Tassio just smiled and floated up. ''Why not...'' was the words he whispered and as they came to Taskmaster he realized something new...
