Chereads / MUSHOKU TENSEI: the beginning after the end / Chapter 126 - An impending battle

Chapter 126 - An impending battle

-...and that's how it happened, Hitogami manipulated the inhabitants of the village by appearing in the dreams of the royal knight who protects it- he declared.

It had taken around 4 hours to return to the Sharia, so it was already night, but I still stayed here, explaining what had happened during the entire trip.

I looked at Orsted and he had a frown on his face as he looked at the sky and drummed his fingers on his desk.

-Even so, I'm thinking about looking for Kishirika tomorrow- I added.

Orsted's expression softened slightly and he looked me in the eyes.

"...he still owes you a favor, right?" Orsted asked.

"Yes, but now I wanted to ask you if we should look for Lautaro or Laura," he answered.

-hmmm our priority is Laplace so ask him for Laura's location- Orsted declared.

I nodded at this and settled in my chair, I looked at the clock and it was already 10 at night quite late, but due to the time of year the temperature did not drop much

Thanks to my Goddess Roxy there are no mosquitoes in this world so we can sleep with the windows open

but that doesn't take away the fact that it's already late and Orsted noticed it.

"You can go now, come back early," Orsted said with a smile.

I nodded at this as I got up from the chair, said goodbye to Alek, and walked out into the street leaving Orsted Corp but not before telling Atofe to peacefully look for Kishirika so that he could give me my last reward.

I know it would still take a long time to find it but it didn't hurt to already have a few hours of searching covered.

To no one's surprise, when I got home, my wives and daughters were sleeping, so that night, I had dinner alone.

Only Anne kept me company...well not since she was preparing a bath for me.

..

Due to the time of my arrival, I slept alone in my room and got up early.

I had breakfast because I had told Anne to make my breakfast at that time, so I just took a bath and went straight to the kitchen. 

look at the clock: 5:57 

It was early in the morning so it was still fine.

I quickly finished my breakfast and got ready to leave. 

I dressed in my tunic and took Aqua Hertia just in case, I would pick up the MK2 at Orsted Corp, but as I was about to leave...

-Rudy!- a female voice called me from behind. 

a scream not too loud nor too low and strict enough to make me stay still where I was

I turned to see who was calling me slowly and it was my adorable white-haired elf who had a big belly now.

She is in her nightgown with her arms crossed and an adorable pout on her face.

-...yes dear?- I answered timidly.

"Why didn't you tell me what time you came back? Do you know how worried I was? I could only fall asleep because I was tired!" Sylphie said in an angry tone while I slowly approached her and hugged her.

I hugged her gently from the side, avoiding squeezing her belly.

-hmmmm...- Sylphie murmured in an angry tone but she didn't try to move away from me so I caressed her head and she closed her eyes in response.

"Forgive me, my love, but I arrived and had dinner late because of work, everything got complicated and now I have to look for Kishirika to look for someone," I told him between whispers and caresses.

This was effective as Sylphie relaxed and hugged me back.

"...I didn't see you for most of yesterday and now you were leaving without saying goodbye..." Sylphie murmured sadly.

oh no..

"Forgive me, dear, but things have gotten complicated now..." I murmured.

"...okay, you can go now, will you be back before dinner?" she asked, looking into my eyes.

-..I don't know, I don't know how long it will take to find Kishirika so I'll contact Alek to let him know here in case something happens- I told him.

Sylphie lowered her head sadly but nodded.

Seeing this scene, I bent down slightly and kissed her tenderly on the lips for a long time. This put Sylphie in a good mood and I also asked her to notify Roxy and Nanahoshi of my departure.

..

I left the house and it was already around 6:30 in the morning, because we are in summer the temperature was slightly pleasant...

Now that I think about it...shit...I'm going to a desert in summer, it couldn't have been at a less opportune time right?!

I arrived at Orsted Corp which had not yet opened the facilities for workers and between

I went up the stairs, knocked on the door twice, and entered the office.

There were Orsted and Alek having tea and cookies.

I said good morning to both of them and went down to the basement.

After several trips to Fort Necross, I already knew the indicated teleportation circle.

Obviously, I had the circle that Atofe gave me to travel faster so I could avoid being under the summer sun in the desert.

I stood in front of the circle and felt the pleasant sensation of being teleported.

I opened my eyes and found myself as always in the nest of the black drakes and as always I had to kill some while I put the other teleportation circle.

After 15 minutes of preparation the circle was ready and so I teleported to Fort Necross quickly.

I opened my eyes and I was in the now familiar dark room.

I went up the stairs and found some guards training.

among them was Kalina

She saw me and bowed to me in respect.

"Good morning, Mr. Greyrat, Lady Atofe is sleeping in her room right now," she said respectfully.

"Thank you very much," I said and headed to Atofe's room.

I have been in his room many times to do...well...things

but now I didn't come for that

I approached the room and there was Moore sitting in a chair drinking what seemed to be Sokas tea.

He saw me and stood up quickly. 

"Good morning, Mr. Rudeus, Lady Atofe is still sleeping and unfortunately we have not had any information about Kishirika yet," Moore said.

-...oh...I see...it's a shame, what time does Atofe usually wake up?- I asked.

-Generally at 8 in the morning, if you like you can have breakfast here- Moore said

"No thanks, I already had breakfast," I said with a smile.

After I had a child with Atofe, the guards and all the staff at Fort Necross treated me with the same respect as Atofe.

Although I suppose it's because they see me as superior to her.

I checked the clock and it was barely 7 in the morning so I still had an hour to wait and who knows how much longer until they found Kishirika.

..

Wait for an hour while watching the guards train and go about their day at the Fort until you hear a voice

-Where is it?!- a female voice was heard along with footsteps running down the hallway

Ah, I guess she's already woken up, right?

Shortly after, Atoferatofe appeared in front of me with Alexis in his arms.

When she saw me a slight blush formed on her face with an excited smile

-Honey, I wasn't expecting you so early- she said as she sat on my lap.

After Alexis was born, Atofe became more affectionate with me but with the others she is still the demon queen.

I Take the sleeping Alexis with one arm and with the other arm hug Atofe around the waist

Because she knew Atofe was coming he didn't have his upper armor and was only wearing a simple white shirt.

My hand instinctively went to her breasts, caressing them slowly, and she did not resist.

-We have not located Kishirika despite your request in advance dear...- Atofe muttered as she watched the guards train completely ignoring my hand on her tit

-hmm well I guess it's just a matter of waiting and since it's to claim my missing reward I'm sure she'll come of her own free will- I said as my hand went down to her stomach

She took my hand and put it back on her tit, apparently she likes the feeling...

-hmmm I guess you're right..also-

-fuajajajajajaaaaaa!!- a shrill laugh was heard on one of the roofs of Fort Necross

Obviously I already knew who this laughter came from.

-So you're going to look for me for your last reward, right?!- Kishirika said as she leaned over the roof and did a somersault in the air, landing right in front of us.

-Kishirika...- Atofe murmured

-Hmm, I just came to pay my debt to Rubius!!- Kishirika said while crossing her arms

(sigh) -It's Rudeus....- I murmured in resignation

-Yes! That's what I said! Turbius!!- Kishirika said with a smile

I could feel Atofe tensing up at this so I stopped her.

I got up from the chair leaving Atofe with Alexis and approached Kishirika

It was time to find out Laura's location...
