Chapter 79 Change Of Plans.While Marian tried to make Dantalian as comfortable as possible to buy Echidna more time to get a healing potion
A massive ice sphere would fall in the middle of the city, with Marian's house being too far away for her to know about it.
Luck for her, after all, the one who would come out of this sphere was the ice aberration.
"What the hell is this?"
"Why did he decide to show up?"
"We shouldn't have irritated him."
"Now is he after us? Why? We didn't do anything."
These were the cries of the villagers, all running in fear. Why did the villain suddenly appear in their town? What was the motive? He wasn't after the Duchess, so why attack the poor villagers?
"You betrayed me!" A male voice would come from within the ice sphere.
Five fingers pierced through the thick ice wall of the sphere with a single movement, moving the hands in opposite directions, breaking it into pieces. Revealing itself before the eyes of the spectators, the being exhibited an impressive and imposing appearance. Its stature was taller than that of an ordinary human, and its body was completely covered in a dense layer of ice.
The ice armor enveloped the being, giving it a frigid and powerful appearance. The shoulders, the back of the legs, and the face stood out with a more intense blue hue, creating a striking contrast to the rest of the armor. Small white lines were drawn at the joints.
However, it was around the hands that the layer of ice appeared different. In this area, the ice showed deformations, forming small pointed volumes. This irregularity gave the creature's hands an aggressive and menacing look, indicating its potential to unleash powerful attacks.
"Aaaaaaah!" The being stomped on the ground, creating a small crater. It turned its head from side to side, observing the trembling and motionless people. Not a single word escaped their mouths.
"What's the matter? Cat got your tongue?"
With each step the creature took, it created a hole in the ground. As it looked at the people, seemingly frozen in place, it stopped and demanded, "Tell me now, where is that bitch's house?"
The silence persisted. Even if they wanted to say something, their throats were closed. Breathing was already difficult for everyone, so speaking was out of the question.
This prompted the creature to advance toward a man who was holding a basket of fruits, wearing a brown apron and a set of green clothes.
' Oh God, I'm going to die...' thought the man.
The being reached its hand towards the man's basket, gripping the edge and pulling it downwards, tearing it apart and causing all the fruits to fall. "Now tell me, where does Duchess Marian live?"
"Ah...." The man tried to speak, but no sound came out.
Receiving no response, the being punched the man's stomach, throwing him against the wall of the house behind him, piercing through it and falling unconscious on the ground.
The being clenched its fists, and the grinding of its teeth could be heard. "You betrayed me. You betrayed yourselves. You betrayed everyone!"
Sobbing
Sobbing
Sobbing "Mommy, I'm scared."
The children were the only ones who had broken the silence. Upon seeing this, the being clicked its tongue and said, "Tsk, you're all just worthless. I shouldn't have helped you."
"Now I'll do it myself." The being walked to the middle of the street, the ice sphere forming around it once again, starting to spin before being launched into the sky.
Inside Marian's house, Echidna had found the potion and was now running back to her mother's office when she sensed the presence of the ice aberration. 'Hahaha, so everything is going according to plan, Miss Fiona?'
Cough cough cough
"Sir Dantalian, are you okay? What are you feeling? You seemed fine just a moment ago," the Duchess spoke, looking concerned about Dantalian's state.
' What kind of question is that, you crazy woman? Can't you see I'm almost dying? Your daughter is quite strong, huh? ' Dantalian thought, restraining himself from laughing.
"I can't say for sure. My vision is blurry. I can't even appreciate your beauty, Duchess," Dantalian slowly brought his right hand to Marian's face.
"No, no, you can't die. You must be the one who will bring peace."
' No! No, you can't break. Not until I become queen. '
Tears started to stream down Marian's eyes, falling onto Dantalian's face.
'Hey, you damned woman, stop this Chinese torture,' Dantalian thought. These tears were only slightly less fake than the Duchess herself.
Breathless and sweating heavily, Echidna arrived, standing in front of the door with the healing potion in her hand. "Sir Dantalian, I brought this for you."
"Quickly, come on! Can't you see the deplorable state Sir Dantalian is in?" Marian swung her legs, along with Dantalian's head.
"Mom, what are you doing?" Echidna spoke, advancing and sitting beside Marian, stopping her legs within seconds.
"Didn't you see what you were doing? Swinging like that will only make him more nauseous."
'Actually, I'm fine, but well said, Echidna,' Dantalian thought.
"Anyway, give it to me now," Marian took the uncorked healing potion and shook it lightly. Smiling at Dantalian, she said, "Here, open your mouth. Ahhh."
'Why are you doing this? Just give me that damn potion already. If I were really injured, I would have died by now,' Dantalian thought, expressing a scream of pain. "Argh, my body, ahhh."
"Mom, give him the damn potion already!"
'Why did you act like that? What do you want?' Echidna thought as she felt the presence of the ice aberration getting closer.
"Okay, okay, I'm sorry," Marian said.
"Thank you very much, both of you," Dantalian said, pretending to faint.
"Ah, here, take it and heal, Sir Dantalian," Marian gently opened Dantalian's mouth and poured the healing potion.
But it was at that moment, with Dantalian unconscious, that the other characters entered the scene.
"Master? What have you two done? We almost died saving your daughter, and this is how you show gratitude?" Amanda shouted from outside the office.
"It seems like you haven't changed one bit, Duchess Marian," Freytan spoke, emanating her bloodlust as she contemplated different ways to kill the duchess.
"That's not it! You've misunderstood. It wasn't me... It was..." Before Marian could finish speaking, someone intervened.
"Are you going to tell us it was your daughter? No way. She can't be. She and our master are great friends, aren't they?" Fiona said, winking at Echidna.
'What? Fiona? What are you doing here?' Echidna began to look around, trying to understand what was happening. 'Huh? What do you mean? If she's here, then whose presence are they feeling?'
"Daughter, answer her. Why are you acting like this?" Marian asked.
"Oh, so now you're trying to be a good person, Duchess?" Fiona retorted.
But before the conversation between the two could continue, Echidna approached Fiona, her expression filled with terror. "What are you doing here? You shouldn't be here!"
"Huh? What are you talking about? I was having coffee when I saw you running frantically, so I followed you, and they followed me after seeing me as they were coming down the stairs."
Amanda and Freytan remained silent, their eyes fixed on Duchess Marian.
"But if you're not here, then what is this pressure I'm feeling now?"
"What?" the three girls exclaimed, each with a slight time difference between them.
"Daughter, what are you talking about?" Marian asked.
"Mother, please shut up and take care of Mr. Dantalian, okay?" Echidna took Fiona's hand and started walking away from the room.
Seeing this, Freytan and Amanda looked at Marian. "Aren't you two going as well?"
"Just do it already. We won't drag you out because it might hurt the master," Amanda said, looking down at Marian.
"I'm just one drop away from having a reason to cut you," Freytan said with a smile.
'Hahaha, Freytan is saying what she really wants. It wasn't what we agreed upon, but okay, it's entertaining,' Dantalian thought.
In a room far enough from Duchess Marian's office, with Freytan and Amanda observing her, she couldn't concentrate and take care of Dantalian at the same time to hear their conversation.
"Fiona, what should we do?"
"What are you talking about? What did you mean by that?" Fiona asked.
"Are you sure you didn't do anything?" Echidna questioned.
"Of course not! Master Dantalian is still incapacitated. I was only going to disguise myself as the ice aberration once he recovers," Fiona replied.
"Then who is that approaching us?" Amanda pointed to the window, where a small black dot could now be seen, contrasting with the rest of the clear sky.
"Oh, fuck. It looks like we'll have to change our plans. While Master Dantalian is still sleeping, the four of us will take care of this intruder. We'll take him away, kill him, and pretend that he escaped," Fiona said, creating an ice sword. "Let's see if he can truly consider himself an aberration."
