Chapter 42 - understanding cultivation and uncovering blessings.1

Deimos returned to Earth, before he would seclude himself on his ship.

Down below Leonidas was walking nervously in the room used by Phobos.

Malaka why has there always be something that goes wrong.

The giant men couldn't even stand up straight at this moment, for his giant frame of 2,5 m was way to high for these ancient greek homes.

He had been waiting for news for a long time.

Olificus had already informed him of what Deimos did.

Now Leonidas was waiting for news from his son.

Soon Deimos descended to the house.

"Father Phobos is stable for now and should not be in any danger."

"But it will take time to purge my poison from his system."

Leonidas who walked outside when he heard his son descend, listend to the situation.

"That's good to hear."

A heavy burden was lifted from his shoulders knowing he didn't need to tell his wife this news.

"What are your plans now?"

Originally Deimos would act as a deterrent for Sparta and stay in the city while the armies could conquer Greece.

But with this incident Leonidas didn't believe Deimos would stay still.

"I am going to stay far away for a time I will give you something to communicate."

Deimos pulled a communication device out of his pocket allowing him to keep in contact with his father.

After saying his goodbye he flew towards, Sparta to say his goodbye's to his mother and Medusa.

He took of seeking out the last of his family.

After a short while he got to Spartan airspace.

He flew down towards the Agiad royal palace, where Medusa and Gorgo were in session with the court.

Cleomenes was taking a distance from the royal affairs and was showing things of retirement in a few years.

So most of the court was led by Gorgo, who was teaching her adopted daughter the strings of being a queen.

"Queen Gorgo we have reports of Thebian spies in our water scouting the way ahead for their warships."

"They disguise themselves as fishermen hoping to elude our warships."

"Destroy them better to implicate some innocent people then to have our secrets spread."

"Yes our queen."

Right then a voice came from the entrance, and the doors of the throne hall were opend.

"Mother I am back."

Gorgon looked up and gave a smile it had been a few months since Deimos disappeared, and seeing him safe put her heavy heart to rest.

"This court's session is over we can discuss the other subjects tomorrow."

The magistrates and guards left the throne room leaving only Forgo Deimos and Medusa.

"Mother Medusa I bring bad news Phobos has been poisoned and I need to create a antidote, making it so that I can't leave his side."

"I shall be gone for a couple of years."

Medusa who heard this got uneasy, she didn't really know what to think of it.

Deimos had always been her best friend but it was apparent he held feelings for her.

But she wasn't so sure yet.

She knew they were betrothed and he would be her husband later, but she didn't know what she felt for him.

Was it friendship or love, maybe both.

But now he would be gone for a long time leaving her all alone, even Phobos was with him.

But she would stay strong and learn all there was to learn from her adopted mother.

Deimos explained what happened with Phobos and the news that Athens had successfully been captured.

And that the next target would be Thebes.

After explaining he walked up to his mother and gave her a hug.

Gorgon looked down at her son who was almost as tall as her now.

This rascal was only eight but was already this big it would be something else once he was fully grown.

Deimos turned to Medusa bending down a bit, and gave her a quick kiss on the forehead.

He turned red," wait for me once Phobos is healed I will come to marry you."

Medusa too got a healthy blush while Gorgo was smirking at the side.

What he didn't hear anymore was Medusa's murmers under her breath.

"Okey"

Deimos turned around and left with haste, he could not stand the shame.

After going outside he directly teleported himself with the ship.

He came to the research wing where he checked on Phobos and the strange priestess.

Everything was normal so he left for his cultivation chamber.

What he didn't realise was the spiritual connection between Phobos and the priestess Albion.

Unbeknownst to Deimos Phobos had made a new friend.

They communicated with each other trough this connection.

Because while Deimos had the same strength as her he didn't have the same means as someone of that cultivation level and may things were yet unknown to him.

So their conversations were not interrupted by Deimos who was deciphering the fundamental ways of cultivation.
