Chapter 226 A skirmish, a return to Sedyon
?This is the author. I am returning to writing after a short break. Moreover, I would like to delight you with three chapters for today, which I will release. Of course, special thanks to swcowboy for supporting the book with a donation.
On December 5th, as I wrote this chapter, I saw zero open chapters in the book, which made me sigh heavily…
Enjoy your reading!

Amaria watched with curiosity as Adam and his group began to descend into the forest to catch their breath. The woman was intrigued by their sudden visit and, after some contemplation, realized that they had come to her not of their own accord but due to circumstances. It somehow saddened her.
“Darn, I thought they missed me. After that witch Elizabeth fancied herself the queen of the world, I had to work hard, and now she shows up in my domain,” thought Amaria with displeasure, sighing as she recognized the potential consequences if the elves learned of Elizabeth’s arrival. .
In the eyes of the elven race, Elizabeth, the Queen of Avalonia, was a true villain, doing everything to destroy their race. Because of her, many elves either became widows or lost their relatives and friends. Hatred reached a point where it would be very difficult to restore the situation. Now even human partners in the world of trade have lost opportunities.
Knock-knock. Amaria knocked on the armrest of the throne, and soon a powerful aura surrounded the forest, which then took on a dome-like shape.
“Now, at least, the elves won’t feel their aura… I didn’t need extra problems on my head,” thought Amaria with irritation, getting up from her seat.
She smiled and took a step forward – the space around her visibly distorted, as if she had entered a portal from the movies. After a dizzying effect, she found herself right in front of the four who had been waiting for her.
“Hey…” .
“Amaria, I have only one question for you…” Veronica rudely interrupted her and frowned, squinting her eyes. “Where were you during the expedition? I’m sure I remembered the face of every person there, but you weren’t there.”
“Huh?”
The Elf Queen, who already wanted to greet them and discuss how to get them out of there as soon as possible, faced an unexpected question from Veronica. She looked surprised and could only meet the frowning gaze of the Demon Queen with a raised eyebrow, who suspected her of something.
The girl shrugged, so carefree and reluctantly, answering: “I used camouflage, you know? It’s a special technique through which a powerhouse like you can’t peek, you get it?”
Veronica looked shocked and simultaneously angry – her reaction greatly surprised the guys who didn’t quite understand what was going on. The two women were communicating in codes, and all they could do was wait for an explanation.
However, instead of answers, they were suddenly hit by a powerful surge of demonic energy, which, though not directly affecting them, forced Amarantha to immediately start defending herself due to the uncontrollable flow caused by Veronica’s anger.
Boom!
Ignoring everything, Veronica rushed forward to attack Amaria, who, in the meantime, only smiled but was undoubtedly ready for this. She waved her hand, and six seemingly ordinary mirrors flew into the air.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Beams of demonic energy collided with the surface of the mirrors and then began to dim. Sierra, with wide eyes, muttered, “Divine artifact…”
“What is this?”
Now the others could understand what was happening. A divine artifact is directly connected to the Gods, as they can bestow them upon their followers, thus rewarding them for their achievements. These mirrors were intended for protection, which means the Goddess of Protection and Peace is involved.
“Oh, you bitch! Being a native of the mortal world, you decided to become a lapdog for a bunch of arrogant bastards!” Veronica angrily shouted, glaring at Amaria, who only smiled, carelessly standing behind the protective artifacts. “You… don’t you have any pride?!”
“Hey, don’t shout like that… you might harm your voice. Then your man will be very upset, won’t he?” Amaria said with a chuckle, waving her hand and making the mirrors glow. “As for pride… my dear, pride runs in my blood. But is the pride of my race worth the life? I think not.”
After a prolonged radiance, the mirrors suddenly shot beams of white light, all six at once! And so, six very fast beams headed towards Veronica, who lowered her head and remained silent. In the next moment…
Bvu-u-u-u-u!
A strange electric sound mixed with a dull thud echoed. Amaria frowned, clearly feeling in danger, and jumped aside. Her intuition didn’t fail her.
Boom!
In the place where she stood before, a huge crater appeared, with traces of extremely toxic poison. The Elf Queen swallowed saliva and could only discard childish behavior and become serious because something told her that there was no joking with Veronica.
“Darn, that almost killed me! What a persistent scent of poison!” Amaria thought with horror, thanking herself for not ignoring her intuition. She snorted and looked at Veronica, who looked disappointed. She asked aloud, “What’s wrong? Why do you look disappointed? Upset that you can’t kill me?”
“?What are you blabbering, you stupid fool? I’m just disappointed that… you’ve become an obedient lapdog to arrogant beings who can’t see beyond their noses. You’ll ruin your race,” Veronica replied with mockery and disappointment in her voice, shaking her head. “I would like to kill you on the spot for this, but Izo and others will surely complain that I’m reducing the number of fighters once again.”
“Oh-oh-oh… so, I won’t die? Hooray!”
“…”
Watching all this, Adam could only shake his head. The difference in the behavior of the Elf Queen greatly surprised him because, at their first meeting, he remembered her as a kind, wise, and slightly flirtatious girl. Still, learning about her achievements, he became more convinced that the first impression was not always true.
After some time, the tension between the two women completely disappeared. Veronica turned around and went back to her group, while Amaria only watched as the four individuals of different races walked away.
“What a strange group. Demon, human, elf, and nymph. Oddballs, that’s for sure,” she muttered to herself, shaking her head and looking at the sky, squinting her eyes. “Damn, the Gods were watching our battle. Now it’s clear why Veronica stopped fighting. For her, it can only be considered as if she’s doing a jester’s job.”
The Elf Queen shook her head and returned to her castle. She only had to go with the flow, not deviating from the chosen path. She decided to cooperate with the gods for specific reasons.
“Anyway, soon many of them will want to become allies of the Gods. Because soon [email protected] will awaken… darn, I can’t remember his name. Forgot completely…”
Upon returning to the city, Adam found himself in a trap. From all sides, he was embraced by his beloved women, who didn’t even think about letting him go. Especially difficult was with Anna, whose eyes were all teary, and her pale face and emaciated body from malnutrition and long-term distress had brought her into not the best condition.
“Adam… I thought you were dead!” Seraphima cried plaintively.
“Well, I can’t die when my dear Seraphima still hasn’t seen mermaids,” Adam said with a smirk, hugging Seraphima and Anna.
“So you remember…”
The other girls behaved much more restrained, but it didn’t last long. In the evening, he was surrounded by Elara, Elira, and Aurora, who tirelessly kissed him and begged for hugs, seeking his attention. The man could only bitterly smile and accept that today he would become a hugging pillow for them.
So passed the first day. And on the next…
“Girls… I can’t move. Could you loosen your grip?” Adam mumbled.
He was surrounded. His bed fought to accommodate them all in one place, and it barely managed to cope with it. Anna, Elira, Elara, Veronica, Amarantha, Catherine, Nix, Aurora, Seraphima, Claire, and Mary… a total of eleven people on this bed, not counting Adam.
“It seems like no one hears me…”
Everyone was asleep. It was six in the morning, and usually, Adam would already be dealing with his affairs, but no one allowed him to get up, and the maids didn’t even dare to enter. Today was their day off.
The man shook his head and embraced Anna, who winced in her sleep. It was evident that she was in pain, and the pain was very intense. He gently kissed her forehead, and it seemed that she felt it, smiling and settling on his chest.
“That’s better,” he thought.
This was a challenging period for Anna. First of all, he found out about her condition and realized that she had only three months left before she would give birth to their child. It was necessary to prepare both morally and in terms of relocation. Plans for moving and a small break in the known environment were supposed to start.
After two hours, he finally dared to break free from the embrace of the girls and went to meet the person who was to take on the role of the mayor of Sedion. He was prepared in advance by Amarantha and trained in everything. Moreover, he had to take an oath on the soul font that he would always obey their orders and never cause harm.
This person was already waiting for him in the guest room.
“Sir, good morning. The guest is already waiting for you,” Chloe greeted him with a gentle smile.
“Good morning, Chloe…” Adam greeted her in return, smiling.
The maid didn’t hesitate to hug him by the hand and press her chest against his left arm.
“Master… could you spare some time for me after the meeting?” Chloe suddenly said with a seductive smile, licking her lips. She looked at him with a pleading look and rubbed her backside against his hard part. “Please~”
To be continued…
