Chapter 169 - 169. The trail (1/2)
''Kendra please come by on your way back from demon lands.'' Asked the King and held Aella in her arms.
''Don't worry auntie. I will definitely come back. Now since you have Blobby I am a bit more assured about your safety. In case something like this happens again I will go on a rampage through the country. It seems I should not hide anymore my powers. It makes me tired to hide it.''
It was really tiring. She is already this powerful and soon her plan will be achieved. Then she just needs...
She took Aella into her arms and kissed her little forehead while the girl that was just a couple days old started cheerfully giggling. These power children seem to be stronger and develop better if they are given a chance.
As she floated away she turned one more time and waved her hand producing beautiful rainbow over the whole city. Rainbows always make people feel happier so she felt this was not a bad way to make people's hearts lighter after all that happened a few days ago.
''You and your ideas.'' Tassio glanced back at the beautiful features and realized one more thing. Over the whole town stood invisible shield but his fluctuations he could feel.
He looked at her and she gave him just wink and flew forward towards the lands not many humans visited. The place not many people wanted to visit, we speak the truth.
The places they flew over were just tiny dots under their feet as they flew quite high in the sky. She put invisible protection on the whole group so even if someone looked up into the sky they wouldn't be able to see them.
Suddenly Kendra stopped and everyone looked down.
There was a long line of people that seemed to be running from something away. The people had just a few things in their hands and were rushing over the bridge of one river.
''I am going down. We can show ourselves walking from that forest over there.'' She pointed at the forest not far away from the trail of people.
They flew down and Kendra put now her official clothes from Celedon Valley. The one she would wear on official business so everyone was stunned and wondered what was her plan.
She slowly walked towards the people with calm expression but looking at their expression it seemed they feared them.
They arrived at the people in front that stopped and didn't know anymore how to react.
Kendra looked at them seriously and saw one older man sitting on carriage next to one good looking young man in good clothes. She turned her head and saw little girl walking next to the carriage while she wore nothing but a big shirt and a pair of straw shoes.
She walked towards them as they started shaking. Only the little girl looked at her with a smile.
Kendra bowed to take a closer look and asked. ''Arent you scared like others?''
The girl shook her head. ''They fear mostly those with big teeth but you seem to have small ones. And not only that, your clothes seem to be something special.''
Kendra blinked couple times. ''How special?''
The girl squints a bit. ''When I make my eyes like this I can see the special shine from the clothes. Somehow it feels comfortable.''
''The shine of the clothe smake you comfortable?'' Kendra chuckled and smiled at Lais. ''It seems we have a new student. Don't you find it peculiar that most power users we met so far were girls and not so many boys? It's really strange.''
Lais came forward and looked around. ''Who is the guardian of this child? Does it have parents?''
The old man laughed loudly. ''She is just mere orphan that we picked up along the way. Her parents were dead when we found her and we just took her with us.''
Kendra's cold smile made his laugh freeze on his lips. ''So did you burry their bodies? Did you provide the child with some care? Or did you think by her walking along was enough of your care?''
The young man stared the whole time at Kendra and then spoke. ''I gave her leftovers from our food. The clothes she wears are from us and she walking is not bad for her. It will make her stronger. ''
Kendra looked at the long line that had problems at the back and just furrowed her eyebrows.
''Lais as this child doesn't belong to anyone we will take her with us. Let these bastards go or people behind might have trouble and get in an accident.'' Kendra patted childs head in passing and Lais just picked her up and walked to the back while the carriage in front just moved on.
People now sighed in relief as they realized that these are not enemies and just looked at them as they swiftly passed them.
Kendra had wished to just fly up and go to the back of the trail but had somehow feeling that she should not.
