Chapter 355 - Last Goodbyes
Camlia gave Kana a lift to the Rural Kingdom, dropping her off right outside the castle gates. "Kana, sadly, I can not stay longer due to the things going on in hell with the ancient lands now accessible. Once you have gotten things in order, you should drop in. Or even when you go to evolve and do not have a place to safely do so, come to my palace."
"Alright, Big Sister, I will be sure to look for you when I am done." Kana smiled and hugged Camlia.
"Mm… Take care. Remember, as your big sister, I am always there for you." Camlia left these words before waving her hand and opening a path to hell, and jumping in.
Kana sighed before turning towards the gates and walking through them. The guards did not stop her as she made her way into the castle. She walked down the long stone halls until she finally reached the throne room. She could hear Tilia's voice loud and clear from within. "Why is the road construction being delayed? We need to make sure each side of the content has proper trade routes."
"Your Majesty, there are many bandits along the roads and anti beastkin rebels as well." One of the officials replied. His voice was trembling.
Kana pushed the doors open, not caring that they were in a meeting, and walked right in like she owned the place. This, of course, caused everyone to look over at her. Seeing Kana walk in made Tilia's frown turn into a smile as she yelled out happily. "Sister!"
"Mm… Tilia, you seem to be acting quite well as queen." Kana said with a smile. She walked up to Tilia and hugged her.
"Are you leaving?" Tilia asked.
"Mmm… They left yesterday, and I now need to work hard to catch up to them." Kana replied. She rested her chin on Tilia's shoulder. "I won't be able to come back for a while. But I will be sure to return sometime in the future. Make sure you hold down the fort while I am away."
"Mmm, I will. Be careful. This world is huge, and there are still many unexplored places. We can't have anything happen to you before you get to meet up with your kids again." Tilia squeezed Kana tightly before letting go.
"I will. I will be back as soon as I can." Kana waved goodbye before walking back out of the throne room. She could hear Tilia going right back to work.
Once she got outside the castle, Kana flew up into the air and headed north. Her destination was Pleqoth, the Land of the Ancients. It was a place where many demi gods lived out their years. Either until they finally ascended or lived a life void of worldly contact. But it was also a place where the ancients once battled it out and was a place where items that can repair souls can be found. And this was precisely the reason why Kana was heading there.
Kana flapped her wings and gently flew through the sky. Aoi and Naru perched themselves on her head, watching the lands below pass by. Aoi was especially happy: "Kana, we are finally going on an adventure again."
"Yes, we are. This time we are going to look for an item that can repair souls. If I am lucky, I can at least heal Lysairth enough to bring her back to the state she was before." Kana could feel the sliver of Lysairth's soul within her. Luckily it was still in a dormant state.
"Hopefully, we can find it." Naru wanted to meet this Lysairth person and find out who they were and why Kana's eyes seemed so warm when she spoke of them.
"No matter what, we must find it." Kana was not going on a hope. She must find this item and bring back the one who was like a mother to her.
While Kana was making her trip towards the north in a certain weapon forge shop, a certain dwarf was not having a good time as she clapped his hands together and bowed towards the two weapons on the wall, praying silently to them… "What the hell am I doing!?"
Baldswin yelled out in rage. "That bastard Creige hasn't shown his face in so damn long!"
Baldswin was mad he had been coming here every day cleaning the shop and praying to these damn swords, but the person he was doing this all for had not shown up even once! As he was raging and complaining to the empty rooms of the weapon shop, a knock came at the door. Baldswin turned his head and snorted before walking over to answer it. To his surprise, there was a beautiful girl from a beastkin race he had never seen before. "May I help you?"
"Ummm… Are you sir Baldswin? Kana told me to drop this letter off to a sir Baldswin. It is from her husband." The young girl held out the letter in her hand.
"I am Baldswin…" Baldswin looked at the girl confused and took the letter. He opened it up. To see only one line on the paper.
"I ascended, good luck."
"…"
"…"
"What the hell is this!? That bastard just goes and ascends and only sends me a letter after the fact! Son of a bitch! Wait, what about his wife and kids!?" Baldswin looked up and wanted to ask the girl about Kana, but when he looked around, the damn girl disappeared. "Son of a bitch!"
Baldswin kicked the stone wall with his foot causing him to cry out in pain. "Damnit!" He limped back into the shop and closed the door. But before he could sit down and take this all in, the door sprung open, and a very familiar wolf girl walked in. Baldswin had a huge headache looking at this girl. "He is not here. He ascended the other day."
"Huh? I am not looking for him. I am looking for you." Filina, the wolf girl, replied. She stuck her nose in the air proudly as she continued: "Since Creige won't let me be his wife, I can only settle for his best friend so he can see just what he is missing. So from this day forth… Ahhh! My clothes! Wait! It's too soon… Oh! Ah!"
"Damn, woman! Trying to use me! I will teach you not to look down on dwarves!" Baldswin was a man of action…
