Chapter 493 Are You Lost?
"Good. I will be counting on you then. Train with the others, and learn things about the three tribes. For those that wish to apply to become the Amazon Goddess, I will need to know what your plans are for your people and how you can help them move forward," I said, and then opened a small portal about the school to the south and smiled in surprise at what I saw below.
"Umm, do you think that I could also go home after this is done?" Cherry asked as I closed the small portal and nodded.
"Of course! Does Draconia want you home?" I asked curiously, and Cherry put her hand to her chin, looking sideways with a bit of a smirk.
"Let's just say that I heard from Chili about what Nya has been up to, but I know my mother is doing nothing of the sort. Let's just say that I think that it is about time that I visited home to get things in order. I am sure that my mother is more than excited to step down, and I hope to take her position as Dragon Goddess so I can gain my black scales. To prove that I have what it takes, just like Kallia and Snowy, I will help Draconia bring order to the Dragons. We are proud creatures, and we should not need our god to take care of our problems," Cherry explained, and I nodded firmly.
"You more than have my attention, and I will most certainly take this into account when the time comes. I love to see everyone stepping up, and I am sure that O'lee is doing the same, but what about you, Penny?" I asked, but she shook her head, and her pointed red ears twitched inwards on the top of her head.
"No. Things are actually really good on our island, and I have no interest in taking over for Goldenia. When I am done teaching, I will train till you are ready to leave this island, but... umm... tonight... I will be waiting for you at my home..." Penny said but got embarrassed near the end, and I put up my hand.
"I know, and you know how to get ahold of me, so we can talk then, okay?" I asked with a gentle smile, and Penny sighed with a nod as I looked at the last two.
"Nope, there is no way we are going back to that mess that they are trying to pass off as home. I will only go when you are going there. Daywalkers are almost non-existent there, and the place is pretty hostile towards us," Daphne said, and Velma nodded along.
"If you don't mind, we would prefer to be your personal adventure assistants and detectives when you need us. I am sure that if you are around, Daphne won't need to be on a leash outside of the house," Velma said, and that got a smile out of me.
"I would love to keep the two of you around, and I understand what you mean about the Vampire Island. I think that the place is a stronghold for the Blood Witches, but I need to weed the other ones out first. Since the Vampire Island is already mostly infested with them, it would be best to clean the other island out first and finish there. Thank you all for stepping up, and in the morning, I will get more people to help out since most of you want to leave after," I said, and then opened a portal to the train grounds where Gaara was showing all the other giant women the motions that I had shown her last night.
"Ah! I was wondering when you were going to show up! I found out that they are actually quite talented and already have the basics down!" Gaara said with a grin, and I nodded at her.
"I am glad to hear that. After this, I am going to go do other things, and I trust that you will fall back in line with the others and let these women take care of the rest. I will be back in the morning, and then I will bring more women to help with training, and possibly some that want to train along," I said, and the Giant woman nodded.
"No problem, Cat God. We will be ready when you return," Gaara said, and I smiled before turning back to the group as I turned to the 6 women behind me.
"I will see you tonight, Penny, and I will see the rest of you in the morning. Now, I need to go see my parents and get some answers before I can do anything else," I said, and they all walked through the portal, but I gave Penny a long hug and then kissed her. "I will see you tonight, okay?"
"Yes! I will be here," She said with a smile and then left through the portal.
After it closed, I sighed and looked around the room that was empty, but there were people still working in a few of the offices doing paperwork off to the side. Part of me wanted to go somewhere else and just forget about all the people sitting in my house on my Astral island.
"Galio?" A familiar voice asked from behind me, and I turned around to see the guard from the south gate of the city I had talked to yesterday.
"Hello, Can I help you?" I asked, but that made her giggle.
"I was just about to ask you the same. You look like you are lost," She said, and I shrugged.
"I don't know about being lost, but I am trying to avoid something that I don't want to do. I have guests over at my house, two of which are my parents," I explained, not sure if she would really understand what I meant, but she nodded.
"I see. I mean, I know you are talking about something different. I have heard about your conversation with the hairdressers, but it seems like they are about to tell you something that you don't want to hear. I know what that is like. When I trained to become a guard, I wanted to join the wall to the south to help there, but during training, I could tell that I wasn't cut out for it. I avoided the office for two days just because I knew that they were going to tell me what I didn't want to hear. This might be different, but I do understand. The thing is that putting it off will not make it easier, and it only makes us seem weaker if we don't face your problems head-on, right?" The woman asked, and I nodded.
