Chapter 78: Armelia's story

78- Armelia's story

I am a Lamia.

Wait, what? Not waiting for me to process the information, Armelia continued,

Ever since I was born, I have been raised in the dark forest and I have practically spent my whole life here. I always wondered how big the world was.

And one day, I heard that there were humans who lived outside of the forest and few stories related to them. As I had nothing to do here in the forest, I collected information related to places outside the dark forest. Gradually, my wish to explore the outside world increased so much that I could not control myself and went to my mother.

But when I asked my mother about this, she denied me and warned that I should not step out of the dark forest. But I was not able to control my feelings and ran away from the home. But I did not know the way out of the forest and so I was stuck, but I finally met you.

After that you know the story.

So, practically she was bored of her everyday life and she decided to explore the outside world, but since she does not know how to get of the forest, she was lost?

What the heck?

And that is not the main point. The main point is that she is a Lamia?

According to what I know, Lamias belong to the branch of serpent family and their upper body is that of a woman and their lower body is that of snake. They have a beautiful appearance and it is rumored that they seduce young men and after satisfying their sexual needs, they consume their flesh.

And the Lamias have been mentioned in the Greek mythologies, Japanese stories and different cultures too.

But the fact that Armelia says that she is a Lamia but she does not resemble a Lamia, is confusing.

So, instead of believing in rumors, I asked Armelia directly,

Armelia, what is a Lamia?

Hearing this, Armelia had a confused expression but she said,

Did you not here about Lamias who have half woman and half snake body?

I did, but I dont see any resemblance between you and a Lamia from any angle, right?

While the other 3 Lamias, wore the clothes similar to a guard and they were each holding a weapon in their hands. And although they looked exceptionally beautiful but they were still not comparable to the other Lamia. And their expression also looked murderous.

Seeing these four figures, the burly guy's body trembled and the hand which was gripping Armelias hair was loosened. And Armelia who was struggling to get away from the burly guys grip, took the chance and tried to get away from the burly guy.

When she got out of his grip but she felt something was wrong, and she saw that the burly guy was looking at someone. So, she looked in the direction in which he was looking and she saw that 4 figures were standing.

But when Armelia saw one of the figures face, her body trembled and her eyes were filled with tears and she ran toward that figure while shouting,

MOTHER...

Armelia ran into the beautiful womens bosom and hugged her and started crying.

Seeing Armelia crying, that woman Lamias expression softened a little and she gently stroked Armelia hair. And then she spoke,

Armelia, it is alright now, your mother is here. Dont cry, I will not let anyone harm my Armelia.
