If he leaves the forestry area then perhaps he will be able to find and protect her until she was old enough to become his mate.
He is already aware that she is not beast-kin and most likely from the reaction of the elder crocodile, would be sharing a mate.
What type of creature is she then?
How powerful is she then, that he an elder four-armed monkey had to share his mate?
"I have need to leave the forest, I will join and guide you among the two legged beings, first, the forest will be covered to prevent outsiders with malicious intent from entering."
The elder four-armed monkey looked in the direction where the weak link was and spoke once again.
"You wish to find your mate yes? A world cycle for me to set everything up among the two legged males, then we shall depart. Practice with your two legged form so it can later be om flawless by then."
"Thank you! Thank you elder four-armed monkey."
The elder four-armed monkey, ignored his joyful outburst before he sprang away, the other two following suit.
"The alpha..."
"En,"
"Does he have a soul like us?"
"It is hard to tell now. Dual forms are quite rare, it is a miracle that we had transmigrated and taken over such powerful forms. It is just a bit more inconvenient to swap between this and my other form within this world."
"En, but it is good that I have a pleasant form,"
"Luckily you have the-"
"There is no reason to mention it now, let us return to our clans,"
The elder crocodile returned to the swamplands on the outskirts of the Beeren mountainous forest.
While the elder four-armed monkey returned to his tree, a while later he disappeared and appeared within the nearby kingdom his four-armed form shifting as if shedding fur and skin.
A man stood in his place of mixed heritage with an intimidating height of over two point two meters.
Sharp jawline, uptilted, red gold eyes, straight slightly long nose, thin red bow-shaped lips and hair piled on top of his head secured with a head crown.
"This servant greets lord master."
"En, has everything been prepared?"
"yes, lord master."
"Inform those who have positions to return immediately,"
"This servant will quickly do as bidded."
striding into the study, the male once the elder four-armed monkey now known as Vier Mepheus opened the compartment and slipped on the wristband.
waiting for it to finish scanning his form, Vier Mepheus enlarged the screen and quickly caught up with all the happenings during his absence.
In fact, Vier Mepheus of the Vier enterprises is no other than the king of Orcas.
Upon his arrival a century prior he had been in the process of encasing himself next to his beloved mate but she had suddenly disappeared right before his eyes.
Even though they had never taken her as a male would his female on their mating day, they had of course mated on a soul level, but never physical.
If she died, he would join her, if she suffers he would suffer, if she was reborn he too would be reborn.
The eras may be different but the soul bound bond would be there as a guide.
Vier Mepheus had felt the bond stretch tight right before Gaia had been destroyed and both him and most of his Orca kind had died.
Thankfully at the last moment, he had used his power and brought as many as he could with him to her location.
Appearing in this world, injured from the soul bond, injured from the sudden destruction of Gaia and trying his best to save his kind.
Vier Mepheus had used the last of his power to instruct his people before his form faded.
'learn about this world,'
Three world cycles later and he woke as the elder four-armed monkey.
A sea-kin became a lowly land dweller.
Unable to shift, unable to... It was only after he had inherented the memories of the previous owner that he came to a conclusion, though this was only after one day sitting by the vast lake he had the luck to see an ancient Koi fish.
The Koi fish was silver with gold streaks.
The Koi fish had spoken to him in an aged tone, words that made him understand.
'The worlds, realms, galaxies, and universes all play a part in the lives of those beings dwelling within. You have found yourself in an unknown world, in a body of a creature you despise but what of your soul bound mate? She has fused with a two legged mortal, becoming so weak to the point that anyone above a certain rank can crush her with ease.'
He had asked earnestly foregoing his pride as a king. To ask more about his soul-bound mate.
Yet, that old Koi fish had replied in a riddle.
'The five sufferings in the world; Birth, love, pain, loss and death.'
'Death? This king did not-'
'What of you becoming a four-armed monkey elder? What else is this other than your previous true form died?'
The Koi fish twisted in the water before fading leaving behind a few words that gave him hope.
'This is only a trial, your soul bound mate is near, it is up to you to protect her well this time upon locating her.'
Now, Vier Mepheus clenched his fist, he remembered how his soul-bound mate had ended up on this world, how she had suffered.
Was it not because he had failed her?
His own kind revolted and attacked their own future female master!
The orcas are considered worse than the shark-kin but that is because they had numbers and travelled in pods of twenty to fifty. The shark-kin are loners and are considered weaker thereof.
Even though a snap of their jaws could kill in an instant against so many Orcas they stood no chance.
So even if they are apex predators in the sea one on one, they are nothing in the eyes of the Orcas.
Yet she had killed them all even though she was heavily injured.
