Chapter 16 - What was Left

"No!!!"

Seth rushed to his patch of destroyed precious herbs.

"My bundles of coin!"

He fell to his knees mourning over his destroyed efforts.

Thinking of the culprits he felt like punishment was due, but he caught himself and let his anger go. The slaves were in such a shock and new state, even Seth himself was troubled by the new twist of fate.

Seth exhaled a deep breath letting go of his fuming anger.

Collecting whatever parts he could salvage from the destroyed garden, Seth made his way back to his cottage and brought out his bag of holdings, two sets of clothing and towels.

He got back to the stream witnessing a strange scene.

"Why are you running away?! Can't you see that the mighty Silver is giving you a golden opportunity?!"

Silver's member was semi hard, bouncing up and down as he chased Eli.

"No! Get away from me! Get that thing away from me!"

Seeing Seth, he ran behind him using him as a shield while he complained to his new master.

"Master! Stop that crazed man! He pinned me down and forced himself into my mouth! I don't want him!"

Seth gave a glare at the flood dragon, stopping him in his tracks.

"I will not tolerate anyone being forced upon! Is that clear Silver?!"

Silver was dumbstruck and unbelieving. "Why! How could this be?! No one has ever refused sex with the great me! I've been chased down by countless others, begging me to penetrate them! Why are you two humans resisting me!? How could I not be wanted and desired?!"

Looking at his slave, Seth saw a peice of himself. He wasn't sure what the feeling was, but something resonated. The wanting and desires went beyond lust.

He walked firmly to Silver.

Silver thought his master was going to beat him for his actions. However, his master simply wrapped his arms around his back and hugged him. Being a head taller than his slave, he simply kissed the hair on Silver's head and laid his head on top of Silver's.

Seth didn't know why, but he felt compelled to hug the flood dragon. He felt pity not only for Silver but also himself, but didn't know why. He continued to hug Silver and patted his back in a calming manner.

Silver felt something strange in his heart. Something new and different. It was soft, and the feeling scared him.

He pushed away his master. Turning his head to the side, blushing. He was speechless and could not fathom what was happening.

Seth too looked at his hands and wondered what that was all about. There was an awkward but warm silence.

Eli broke the awkwardness.

"Master, thank you for saving me against that sex-crazed man. I mean not to rush you, but I urgently need to see my parents."

Silver's tantrum was brought back by Eli's words. "Saving?! I was giving myself to you. Offered on a silver platter! Foolish human! You'll regret the lost opportunity of the wonderful bliss of being held down and ravaged by a flood dragon!"

Putting the feelings aside, Seth looked away from his hand. "Alright you two. Silver my stance still stands. No forcing yourself on anyone. Eli, we will be leaving once you two are presentable."

"Che." Silver pouted, but he made hidden glances at his master with flushed cheeks. He caught himself and yelled at himself in his mind. "Stop it! What the hell is this weird feeling?!"

Eli was excited at finally going home and meeting his parents. "Thank you master!"

They got their clothes on, with Eli being the fastest. He was madly tapping his feet waiting for Silver.

Annoyed, Silver relaxedly took longer while buttoning his tunic.

"If you're in such a hurry you can help me button my clothes!"

Mad and impatient, Eli stomped to Silver and grabbed his collar and forcefully buttoned down each button. He ignored the smirking face of his antagonizer. He needed to find his parents. That was all he cared about currently.

Silver was going to get pay back.

He motioned like he was going to button the bottom from the bottom up. And Eli almost had a change of mind about Silver, but that vanished shortly. He was fuming and glaring daggers at the smirking flood dragon.

Silver did not button his tunic, but rather loosened his belt and unbuttoned his trousers as they fell to the floor. He didn't wear underwear and his semi erect member hanged in the open air.

"What are you doing?! Can't you see I'm in a rush?!"

"Can't you see my trousers fell down?! I won't move an inch if you don't bend down and pull them up!"

"You're unbelievable! Mean! Inhumane!"

"Well duh. I'm a flood dragon, not a human. If you do pull my trousers up and tie them then I promise I will hurry with your dumb request to find your parents. Deal?" A big grin was on Silver's face.

Eli's face was full of anger, but he softened in defeat and gave in. He bent down and pulled up Silver's trousers. As his face was at Silver's crotch, Silver thrusted forward and his cock smacked Eli's face.

Eli jerked back in repulsion. He was extremely angry and wanted to punch the man, but he refrained. He pulled up and buttoned the trousers and pulled the leather belt with all his might.

Silver yelped from the tight pressure around his waist. Before he could complain, he felt a tug below his cock as Eli was prepared to zip up his trousers while his phallus was still hanging out.

"Promise me. You will stop delaying me. You promised to help me find my parents if I pulled up your trousers. If you dare to waste any more of my time I will zip up your trousers through your dick right now. Now swear you'll keep your promise!"

Silver had never in his life been threatened. Let alone by a human. However, he gritted his teeth and promised as his member was at stake.

"Fine! I promise! Flood dragons don't go back on their words anyway! Not like you humans! I will find your stupid parents!"

Seth looked on not knowing what to do. The problem escalated too quickly.

"Okay, push my dick back and we can go!"

"Fine. You should have just done…"

Silver's face was plastered in a devious smile as his dick pulsed in Eli's hand.

Eli was flustered with embarrassment holding Silver's pulsing dick. He forcefully pushed the throbbing member back into Silver's pants.

"Don't break it! Damn human Eli! I'll make you pay! You still owe me interest from healing you! I'll collect and ravish all my payments from you sooner or later, human!"

Eli ignored the bantering flood dragon, and motioned to Seth.

"Master, we're ready."

Seth didn't know what to say to the bickering couple of slaves. So he avoided it.

"Okay, what I'm about to show you, you can never tell anyone besides the three of us. Not only will it bring me disaster, but to you and your family as well. Do you understand Eli?"

Still confused, Eli could only agree.

"Of course master! I vowed to never harm or disobey. I will forever keep it a secret between the three of us."

"Ok, let me cast some basic spells to keep us safe first before we head out."

Seth's body started to glow with a faint outline of light.

"Glass Barrier. Isolated wind."

He used the same spell on the three of them.

Silver had some thoughts, but he kept it to himself.

Seth casted his spell to connect his miniature world to the world outside.

"Seal of Space." An image of the Riola River where Silver had tried to eat them appeared. The area was a mess from Silver's rampaging, but aside from that, there was nothing around in the immediate surrounds.

Seth unlocked the seal, and a portal showing a cutout of the outside world appeared. He looked at Eli, stunned with all that just happened.

"This world we are in is part of my treasure. We are in a separate world connected to the world outside. My treasure is precious and is why you cannot share this with anyone else."

Eli was shocked at the information, as he now knew why his master was so careful.

"I understand master. This would bring a calamity if known. Are you a powerful mage master?"

Laughter bursted out of Silver's mouth.

"I am more of a mage than master is. Though master is technically a mage too."

Seth did not refute and only further confirmed.

"I was self taught. I'm still learning. Maybe we can learn together."

"Master! Are you willing to teach me too?!" Eli was shocked. He had not expected such treatment being a slave.

"Yea, now that we're tied together, we might as well help protect each other."

Silver snorted, but his cheeks were still with a slight flush. "Only master would think as such. You could sell slaves or kill them. No one would care or say anything the tiniest word of complaint. Such an odd human master is."

Eli, however, was not complaining. "Thank you master! I never thought I would get such a golden opportunity!"

Silver retaliated with a shout. "I served you with a golden opportunity, you ungrateful human!"

"I don't want any of your "opportunities"!"

Seth intervened, annoyed by the bickering. "Okay stop it you two. Or I'll have to separate you like children! We're going into the Forest of Sardon! The Forest of No Return! Get yourselves together! You both know the dangers out here!"

"Yes master," they both replied while glaring at each other.

"The coast is clear. Let's move before something shows up."

Internally, Silver hoped he wouldn't be spotted, though he knew no one would even bother to notice his disappearance.

Cautiously they made it onto the bank of the Riola River. Seth closed his portal and sealed it, as they cautiously moved to Helwerk Town by following the river back.

Unbeknownst to them many pairs of eyes peeled through the heavy vegetation. Curious but also on guard, they watched the three men as they started their journey up the side of the river bank following close by the forest's edge.

The sky was already hovering high in the sky. Light streamed through the cracks of the dense canopy, illuminating a dense lush green vegetation on the forest floor. Seth motioned to his slaves.

"Silver, Eli, the both of you stay alert and be on guard. I will be looking around the floor for anything I can forage along the way to town."

They nodded, and then huffed in annoyance and looked away from each other. Seth sighed.

"Be on guard. We'll move quickly, let me know if I'm falling behind, or if we are slowing."

They both acknowledged Seth's commands.

They moved quickly and silently through the forest. Sometimes Seth would rush off and pick some fauna and put into his bag of holding them quickly continuing.

The journey was uneventful as Silver let out his smell to keep other creatures away, unbeknownst to the other two. Seth was able to collect a good amount of items he could sell by the time they made it to town.

The sun was still up as it was still in the early evening. The trees came to an abrupt end where the farmers cleared the land for their crops and farming. The scenic countryside was partially destroyed with fallen crops and collapsed buildings.

The three came out and stared at the damage, however, Eli would break out in panic and fear of what he would further see.

The Mokai habitually played with their food. They found excitement in the tortured screams of their victims.

Eli sprinted off first, only to be stopped at a gruesome sight.

Streaks of dried blood and the clawing into the dirt road, left a trail to the scene of carnage. Dried blood and body parts were left strewn along on the road. Bare bones sticking out of the little pieces of decaying flesh was all that was left of the poor farmers unable to get away.

The smell was putrid and swept far into the area. The once bountiful land and the poor but merry farmers were only left with destruction and the scent of death.
