Chapter 77: Returning home victoriously (2)

It seemed that the fox princess wasn't as scared of Felix as he thought as she didn't react strongly when he got even closer to her, he wasn't sure what to understand from the mixed messages her body language gave him, it was truly strange for him as the only experience he had talking with females was with Sahee and she was pretty easy to talk to.

But he didn't know what to say to this fox princess who was going to be their supposed slave, so he just went forward put a paw on her shoulder, which she surprisingly didn't flinch from, and then told her as easily as he could under the gazes of everyone:

"You will return to the lion tribe with us."

The fox princess gave out a sigh of acceptance and she was also relieved somewhat?

She opened her mouth and decided to accept everything that happened as being with the lion tribe would be relatively better compared to the raven tribe, kangaroo, or spider tribe. While it was an expansionist tribe with a love for war it treated its people rather fairly... at least the strong people.

With her status as a God-chosen, she would surely have a place in the lion's army and she could win her freedom back as long as she fought.

She and her master were ready to accept this situation from the start, it was common knowledge their Sparron continent races had a weak battle power, while their abilities were diverse they weren't meant for battle or they hadn't been able to polish their abilities into a battle-ready state.

It wasn't that the races were untalented but their abilities were meant for day to day utilities, they either had enhanced charm or abilities that they would enhance their cooking, sewing, or singing abilities, they were the entertainers of the world but unfortunately in this war filled environment, entertainment had no place! Of course, if the planet would turn peaceful they would easily make a living but considering the current political situation between the continents wars would surely come up very soon at a large scale to boot!

While the princess knew that she would come into the tribe as a slave she nodded at Felix and waited for the others to get ready, it seemed she really wanted to get going as well!

Siracha smiled seeing her eager attitude and asked her:

"What's your name?"

She introduced herself with a military salute as she said:

"My name is Manitola, Sir! I hope I will be of use to you in the upcoming war with the Sparron continent."

Siracha shook his head and said:

"Who knows?"

This answer made her fox ears flop down, did that mean she wouldn't be allowed to fight for her freedom?

Sensing the vibe from her made Siracha clarify:

"I said who knows because it's unknown if we will join the fight or not yet."

Mashi slapped his shoulder as he said:

"Stop being a fence sitter Siracha you know that in the end, you will still have to join even if you want to or not, or else our continent will become next, we need to show your fangs and teeth so you can scare your enemies!"

Siracha moved Mashi's hand away as he said:

"Tell me something I don't know old man, this is more of a strategic trouble rather than me being scared of fighting or being a fence-sitter, the Sparron continent is full of weaklings why would I run away from a massacre?"

Manitola didn't even flinch when she heard that Siracha called her continent a bunch of weaklings... because it was true, he was just stating facts, and getting mad or frustrated at facts wouldn't help with anything.

Siracha waved his hand as he said:

"I guess we are ready to go, can you swim Manitola, or do you need some support?"

Manitola took a few steps forward as she easily balanced her svelte body, it seemed that the mental damage done to her didn't affect her physical abilities at all, she gave Siracha another salute and said that she could swim on her own.

Everyone then undressed and put their clothes in their special bags, Lindo blushed seeing Manitola only in her underwear and Bizkier averted his gaze, he was only interested in women of his own race!

Siracha took a peek but afterward jumped into the water while Mashi smacked her butt with a lewd look on his face. While he couldn't get it up anymore that didn't mean he didn't enjoy the sensation of touching the butt of a young lady, it seemed he was actually an old pervert who couldn't restrain himself under the guise of a sage.

Manitola didn't say anything but she blushed furiously as she glared at Mashi.

"Sorry young lady my hand slipped."

Manitola didn't say anything as she immediately dived into the cold water and started to swim far away from Mashi who followed her into the water.

Felix jumped along with Lindo and Bizkier as the water splashed and they started swimming following Siracha back to the Tarot continent.

The swimming back to the continent took almost as much time as when they came to the island, bar a small reduction in time.

Siracha then took the lead as everyone else put their clothes back on their body and split.

Mashi and Bizkier left towards the elephant tribe while Lindo, Siracha, Felix, and Manitola went to the lion tribe.

On the way to the lion tribe, they had some food from their special bags and after a while, they finally returned to the tribe's capital!

The moment they stepped through the gates of the capital the whole place knew that the shaman came back with his warriors and from the looks of it they won!

The sign was the fox woman that was following behind them, the whole capital knew that the winners would get a slave from the loser surviving team.

Captains and lieutenants all over the capital started to gather up to throw up a banquet for the winners of the intercontinental battle!
