Chapter 140 - Chapter 140 An Eye For A Life

As Thomas stood there Emera walked towards him and said "I shall forgive your insolence just this once and shall explain to you what a god is." She stared at Thomas in anticipation as she waited for him to say something. Thomas stood there for a few seconds and said "Well what is it?" She turned away and said "Gods are incredibly powerful people who can manipulate the world or create one." She turned back to him and said "If you mess with a god of love just think about how I can ruin your life." Thomas day there even more confused and said "I sort of understand what your saying, but just incase can you repeat that with less words." As the others walked over Ocis grabbed onto Thomas's arm and said "I'm glad you won." Emera looked at the others and seen Scarlett. Emera immediately pointed to her and said "Why is part of the demon lord's army walking around casually in broad daylight?" Scarlett took a step back and said nothing as Thomas said "Leave her out of it." Emera glared at Thomas and said "If the demon lord is summoned it shall be your fault for trying to cooperate with demons." Thomas sighed and said "Scarlett hasn't killed anyone." Emera glanced at Scarlett and said "I intend to keep it that way." Emera appeared in front of Scarlett and said "You will have to die here and now." As Emera raised her fist Thomas put his hand on the ground and just before Emera could hit Scarlett he shifted the ground causing her to fall. As she stood up she glared at Thomas and said "You dare attack a goddess!" Thomas looked away and said "It wasn't me you lost your footing." She walked towards him and grabbed his shirt as she asked "Why do you refuse to listen to me?" Thomas glared at her and said "I was fine with you interrupting the tournament, but quit trying to kill her." Emera punched Thomas faster then they could all see as she said "Stay out of it." As Thomas was hit he was knocked into the ground. As Thomas laid there Peri and Ceil ran over to him and asked "Are you alright?" As Thomas stood up Emera said "If you refuse to let me kill this one demon, then you must be working with the demon lord." Thomas glanced at Scarlett how was now standing behind Daisy as he said "I can't work for something I don't have a clue about." Emera appeared in front of Thomas and prepared to punch him again. Thomas tilted his head to avoid the punch and said "If you won't leave We'll just settle this like before." Thomas punched her in the face but she just stood there and asked "Why are you going through such lengths to protect a demon?" Thomas began to rapidly punch her as he said "I won't let you just kill a friend." She stood there and said "If you want her to live I want you to prove it." Thomas continued to punch her as she said "You must sacrifice something in order to protect her." Thomas quit punching her and summoned his short sword. Thomas handed it to her without hesitation and said "Fine by me." Thomas sat down and said "Do your worst." Scarlett ran out in front of Thomas and said "I won't let you hurt him." Emera glanced at the sword and asked "What trickery is this?" Thomas glanced at her and said "There isn't any trickery it's a real sword, so get it over with." Emera pushed Scarlett out of the way and said "Very well." The others all began to panic as Emera raised the sword and swung it down faster then they could all see. As blood dropped off of the sword she said "You have proven to me that you want her to live." As Scarlett glanced at him she said "I wasn't able to help him." Emera held the sword out at Thomas and said "Killing you would be unfair so I settled for an eye." Thomas held his left eye and glanced at his hand that was now covered in blood. Thomas glanced at Emera as she said "Remember I am a god of love, I will not ruin that for people unless they truly deserve it." Scarlett stood up and walked over to Thomas as she said "I'm sorry I couldn't help you." Thomas smiled and said "Don't sweat it, an eye is a small price compared to a life." Thomas held his hand out i front of him and summoned the eye patch he was using on the ship and said "I guess it's a good thing I made this." Thomas put the eye patch on and said "There we go, that probably looks a lot better." Emera walked towards Thomas and said "I will continue to watch over you." Thomas glanced at her and said "Then I guess I'll see you soon." She nodded and said "As a goddess of love I will enjoy watching your life." As she vanished Daisy rushes over to Thomas and said "Take the eye patch off I still have to treat it." Thomas took the eyepatch off and said "It's probably not looking to Well is it?" She shook her head and said "She heavily damaged your blue eye." Thomas sighed and said "Well that's fine." Scarlett day down beside Thomas and said "If I wasn't traveling with you, you wouldn't have lost your eye." As Daisy treated Thomas's eye he said "If you hadn't come along I would've died in that town with the guilds." Scarlett stared at his damaged eye and said "I owe you yet again." Thomas smiled and said "Forget about the eye let's go check out the festival, I've been stuck fighting all day." As Thomas attempted to stand Daisy pulled him down and said "Not until I finish treating your eye." Thomas aimed his hand at his sword and said "All right." As the sword vanished Scarlett asked "How will I ever be able to repay you?" As the others stared at Thomas without saying a word he glanced at them and asked "Why the long faces?" Lily sighed and said "You lost an eye, we want to know why you don't care in the slightest." Thomas shrugged and said "Why worry, nothing I can do to change it." Thomas smiled and said "Well that may not be true." Peri and Ceil stared at Thomas and said "Opal!" Thomas smiles and said "Exactly this is only temporary." Scarlett stared at Thomas and said "You had this planned the whole time didn't you." Thomas smiled and said "I might've." Moments later Toby walked over and asked "Where did the goddess go?" Daisy stood up and said "Alright your eye is patched up the best I could right now." Thomas stood up and turned around as Toby seen Thomas's eye he asked "What happened?" Thomas shrugged and said "Just had a little problem with that lady." Lily stared at Toby and asked "Where were you during this entire thing?" Toby pointed to the infirmary and said "They we're treating my injuries from the fall." Thomas stared at the infirmary and said "Let's avoid that place." Daisy stared at him and said "They could probably give you far better treatment then I could." Thomas turned away and said "I'd rather not." Scarlett stared at Thomas and said "Please go, Daisy only gave you a crude treatment." Thomas sighed and said "Alright I'll go." Ocis grabbed onto his arm and said "I'll be sure to keep you company." As Thomas and Daisy went to the infirmary Lily glanced at Scarlett and said "He trades an eye for you." Scarlett nodded and said "I wish he wouldn't have." Daisy sat down beside Scarlett and said "Yeah but because he did your still alive." Peri and Ceil sat down in front of them and said "He probably would've done the same for all of us." Ceil pauses for a moment and said "We forgot to remove the three hundred pound talisman." Peri stared at her and said "We might as well leave it there, since he hasn't noticed yet." As Thomas and Ocis arrived at the infirmary Poppy appeared on Thomas's shoulder and said "If your gonna do something risky you should consult me first." Thomas glanced at her without saying a thing as she said "If you die so do I." Poppy sighed and said "You probably won't bother but you should at least give me some sort of heads up." As Poppy vanished Ocis stared at Thomas and asked "How's your eye?" Thomas stared at her and said "It's been better." As two people seen Thomas they walked over to him and asked "What happened?" Thomas sighed and said "Some lady cut my eye." The two people sat Thomas down and began to treat his eye as Ocis sat there silently waiting for his treatment to finish.
