Chapter 122: Desmond's Parents

Meanwhile, Desmond, who was heading for the kitchen's back door, stopped and looked at the backyard, which was near the kitchen.

"Should I try it now or not?" Given that his spell's power was unstable, Desmond had finally chosen to do it tomorrow.

When Desmond returned to the front of the stairs, he saw that all the maids were busy with their respective duties.

Good, no one's suspicious.

After that, Desmond went up to the second floor and entered the bathroom.

Right after the bathroom door closed, all the maids who had been on duty then glanced at each other. "Did you hear that?" one of the maids asked.

"I heard it clearly; it looks like the voice came from below this house?" the other maid asked.

Then the maids who had been working at Desmond's house for a long time stopped their conversation, "Ignore what you heard if you still want to work and live here." The maid said seriously and then continued with her duties.

The other maids still had many questions, but seeing the unusual expressions of their senior, they closed their mouths and continued their duties.

"Shall we ask Laura?" Another question rang out, causing the senior maid to frown and glare at the maids asking the question.

The day had changed, and Desmond, who had just woken up from his sleep, as usual, was eating ice cream accompanied by his favourite wine while reading a parchment.

"A thief has been caught ... an elegant new shop was opened near guild ..." Inside the parchment was a moving picture showing the situation Desmond had spoken of.

Instead of reading, Desmond was watching the news footage earlier in the day.

The first time he discovered that this world had been a 'little bit' successful and could even combine science and magic, it makes him a little shocked.

He doesn't know whether to be proud or depressed because he's getting the system to do the same. He then looked for other similar items, but only this newspaper could catch his eye.

According to the books, he had read, this newspaper's creator was none other than Sieg, which made Desmond's suspicions even stronger.

Is Sieg also from another world or a transmigrator like himself? Makes magic that no one else can achieve and has interesting ideas even he is creative with his own spells.

While Desmond was reading the parchment, the maid standing beside him couldn't help but be curious; she peeked at the parchment contents to see the news Desmond was reading.

"There were traces of Sky-Hunter near the beast territory borders," Desmond muttered. When he saw these moving pictures and writing, the atmosphere that had been relaxed turned heavy.

The curious maid immediately held back her feelings and stood up with a tense face while looking ahead.

.

.

.

At night precisely the day before, in the border area of ​​Beasts Territory.

In the depths of the forest, there was a small cave that shone brightly, lighting up the pitch-black forest around it.

"Honey, are you all right?" in the cave, there is a pair of husband and wife who are resting.

The couple is arguably perfect, with the man has a handsome face, a thin but muscular body, with a friendly smile he gives to his wife.

Meanwhile, the woman has a charming beauty with loose black hair and a gaze full of affection, looking at her husband, who cares about her condition.

The man approached his wife while holding her face, "It doesn't look okay." The man frowned when he saw the pale face and scars on his wife's forehead.

"It's only a minor wound, honey. I can heal this in an instant; you're worried too much," replied the woman in a soft tone; she held her husband's hand with both hands.

The atmosphere between them became silent. There were only a few sounds, like the sound of water drops falling from the ceiling of the cave and the noise emitted by a small flower of light hovering behind the woman.

They both stared at each other before the man chuckled at the seductive expression on his wife. "Silly, then I'll check the conditions outside."

The woman laughed at first, but when she heard what her husband said, she became worried and pulled her husband's hand, "Be careful."

Her husband turned around and smiled at her in return before he finally came out with his sword.

The woman saw her husband leave and then closed her eyes to meditate. The woman suddenly stretched out one of her arms and chanted a spell.

An ice needle is formed in the middle of the air; the ice needle then points upwards and

* swoosh *

A scream could be heard, and an object fell right in front of the woman. The woman opened her eyes and said in a low voice, "Hmm, what should I cook for tomorrow ?"

The thing that fell in front of him was a bat with horns on its head. This bat is the size of an adult dog, even has blue spots on its wings.

The woman then walked to the inside of the cave while carrying the bat by making several ice chains that pierced each bat's body and dragged it.

Along the way, the small flower of light that followed the woman also illuminated the cave inside.

There are several cooking utensils made of clay; there is even a bathtub made of wood.

Arriving at the end of the cave, the woman stopped in front of a table that looked like a cooking table, made of the same material, namely clay. She then stretched out her other hand and chanted an incantation.

An ice blade formed in the air; the woman then held the ice knife and controlled the ice chain at the same time

* pop *

The ice chains pulled the bat body up to the top of the table; the woman seemed to have expected it because she had already swung the knife down, and the knife struck right at the bat's left horn.

Seeing the bat horn that was cut off, the woman's gaze became dazed." Desmond must like these cool horns. " Her expression became soft. She then muttered, "My children, I miss you all."

This married couple is Desmond's parents, namely Bastian and Leona. They have been trapped in this forest for more than six months.

When the Sky-Hunter attacked their camp, they were forced to decide to become bait so that the other soldiers could escape from the Sky-Hunter pursuit.

Even with Leona's ability as Master Witch and Bastian as a dual-class, she still doesn't have the confidence to completely escape from this beast.

After the Sky-Hunters went after them, they saw that the camp's situation had improved, and the soldiers had managed to block the attacks of the other beasts.

Several times, they were almost directly swallowed up by the giant mouth of the Sky-Hunter during their escape. If it weren't for Bastian carrying Leona and Leona acting as support, maybe one of them would have died.

Sky-Hunter also uses several spells that are unique to them, such as attacking with a thunderbolt from its claws which almost shreds Bastian.

Makes a giant rockfall from the sky, which almost makes them crushed to death.

The two of them worked together really well; Bastian avoided the rocks thanks to Leona's buff. Meanwhile, Leona heals several burns caused by the lightning element on Bastian's back.

After a full day of running, Bastian's stamina began to weaken, his vision also started to blur. This forced Leona to make a giant hole in the ground and bury herself and Bastian.

Sky-Hunter, as a rank A Beasts is not stupid; it activates a spell that creates giant water that erodes the ground layer.

Leona was forced to continuously chant to increase the volume of the ground above them.

After many days, the attacks from Sky-Hunter no longer appeared. This made Leona and Bastian sigh in relief. Before exiting the earthen hole, they peeked and found that they were now in an unknown forest.

They saw no sign of Sky-Hunter and finally came out of the hole. But what awaits them next is a pack of Dire Wolves and Husk Wolves, who are drooling and ready to devour them.

Since Leona was already exhausted before, this time, it was Bastian's turn to chant a spell and make a cave. The existence of this cave is beneficial because Bastian can reduce the number of beasts faced directly at the same time.

With that, Bastian continued to slaughter all of the beasts while Leona helped a little in treating the wounds he had received.

After successfully killing all the beasts, Bastian saw a beast even more terrifiying than Sky-Hunter passing through the air. He hides in a cave and hopes the beast didn't notice.

Since then, it has been difficult for the two of them to find a way out and return to human territory, with Bastian continually checking and looking for a way out and Leona defending their temporary home.

This can be seen from the structure of this cave, which seems to be an artificial cave. The lower part of the cave is made of wood, while the cave ceiling retains its original structure, namely rocks.
