《Jormungandr's calamity》Book 1: Chapter 7 : Protector
Advertisement
Vroul was kneeling in front of Snar as he was not allowed to move as this could make his injury even worse than it already is.
Vroul: So even with my mutation and the wound he already had, he came out victorious.
Snar looked at him like he was wondering what to do with him. Vroul couldn't stand this look and position because it made him feel even more inferior to this reptile.
Vroul: "Kill me, I lost the fight, give me a warrior's death.
Snar: Why would I kill you?
Vroul: Why? A fight to the death must have a winner and a loser. Conquered dies and victor lives.
Snar: I won't kill you or I won't be able to have as much fun, why would I get rid of such a good fighting partner by fighting you I can feel myself getting stronger.
Vroul: A fighting partner, don't you fight seriously?
Snar: otherwise you will already be dead and say hello to your family in the otherworld, a dead man couldn't train with me and if I didn't attack you head-on or let you finish your transformation you'd be gone from this world by now because I could've ambushed you or just attacked you from a distance."
Vroul had nothing to say because he knows that what the snake said is right he goes easy on him, but now he knew that if he wanted to survive, he had to follow to the letter whatever Snar told him.
Vroul: Doing what for us? Your companion kills me on sight.
Snar (starts shaking): You're right how could I forget about her.
Vroul couldn't understand why he was so scared, it's just a woman? he's stronger than she is, so why would he be afraid.
Vroul: Why are you afraid, you stronger.
Snar: No, you don't know the power of words, they can hurt even more than powerful blows. But how do I get her to accept you? Suddenly he had a great idea. I know you will become our child's protector.
Vroul: A protector? Doing what protector?
Snar: You will protect our child and help him when he asks you to. If you want you'll become one of our family.

Vroul: Family?
Snar: Yes, family, so let's go. We need to introduce you to Pril."
He gave me a tail movement to tell me to follow him but I could not move because of my injuries.
Snar: "Your paws I forgot. Sorry I got a little too excited during the fight.
He went to get plants to give them to me so I could cauterize and disinfect the wounds.
Vroul couldn't understand him because not even ten minutes ago he was fighting, putting their lives on the line and now he was talking as if nothing had happened. Snar came back with the plants and dropped them off in front of me. I thanked him with a head movement and started to grind them and apply the mixture to his wounds. After finishing his treatment at night had already settled in.
Snar: "We'll leave the next morning."
While Snar was sleeping Vroul went towards him to kill him but once he got in front of him, he couldn't bring himself to strike. So he went under a tree to sleep.
Snar: "You passed the first test of loyalty because you could have killed me in my sleep but in that case, it would have been you who would have lost your life because I was still awake.
Vroul: What test?
Snar: A test to see if I could give you custody of my child because if you tried to take my life, I couldn't have imagined what you would do to my child. You've earned my trust but it doesn't matter, the one who rules the house is Pril, she always has the last word. Well, let's go to sleep. We have to be in shape for tomorrow."
The next morning in front of a cave where our two characters.
Snar: "Just don't do or say anything because Pril could kill you for anything and I couldn't save you.
Vroul was more and more intrigued by what kind of person Pril was so that Snake respected her so much.
Author Vroul still doesn't know his name and as surely at the end of this chapter there will be a leap in time and he will be fluent in the language used by everyone.

Snar went into the cave to see Pril and explain what happened.
Snar: "Pril I'm here, Pril?
Suddenly a shadow at the bottom of the cave rushed towards him and knocked him on the head.
Snar: Ouch, Why will you hit me?
Pril: You dare to ask me why? You don't know how scared I was !!! It's been two days since you've been gone, I thought I might never see you again. Don't ever do anything that crazy again or warn me first.
Snar: I missed you, too, and okay, I'll let you know when I do something crazy like this.
Pril: Okay, but why were you outside for this long, and what did you do?
Snar began to explain to her that after she was attacked, he had gone to attack the chief but he first killed all the Bogirs around him little by little and that it was because of this that no Bogir went to confront him.
Pril: "I didn't know that you could use your head. Looks like my company taught you how to use your brain."
Finally, he reminded her that he wanted to fight head-on because that's how warriors fight. He could see that Pril was beginning to frown, but she let him continue his adventure. Finally came the moment of mutation.
Pril: "You witnessed the famous mutation. It's just a pity you couldn't see what species would have come out of this phenomenon.
Snar: Why couldn't I see it?
Pril: You said yourself that he was vulnerable at that moment so with the slightest blow you could have finished him off. Wait, you let him finish his transformation?
Snar: Yeah it's not every day you get the chance to face such a powerful opponent, I had to let him finish it to test my limits.
Pril: Okay, what happened at the end.
Snar: I lured him to the center of the forest with the smell of my blood and once he was there, I destroyed his legs with sticks so he had no mobility and finally we had one last exchange which I won after I shed but. . .
Pril: Why that but? What have you done now? She was annoyed by her mate because he always thought strangely. So she couldn't foresee what was going to happen with him.
Snar: You'll know if you follow me out of the cave.
Pril started to follow him towards the exit but she could feel a big ball of heat in front of the cave.
Pril: What'd you bring back?
Snar: You'll know when you get out.
She was finally outside and in front of her was a huge bear.
Pril: Don't tell me it's?
Snar: Yes it's the Bogir and I had the idea to bring him here to become my training partner and our child's guardian.
Pril: No I refuse, he's an enemy, you just had a fight to the death with him, how can you be so calm by his side.
Snar: It's because I fought with him that I can be so calm by those sides he was also fighting to protect something and all true warriors become friends after a big fight. And he started laughing.
Pril: I refuse to accept him, but he can stay with us, but if I see him do one strange thing, I'll kill him. Is that clear?
Snar: Yes, ma'am.
And she left to go take care of her egg.
Snar: You can see why she scares me so much.
Vroul: I understand.
Snar: The first thing we'll do is teach you the common language of Urdu.
11 days later (one day before hatching).
During this time Pril had begun to accept Vroul and with Snar's help, he learned to talk.
Snar: "Let's go hunting,
Vroul: All right, I'm coming."
Vroul liked this kind of life because he had a place where we needed his help and he could take some time to think about his occupation which was to think about the problem in the world something that brought him closer to Pril because they had many conversations on different subjects but each time Snar was lost because for him what they were saying didn't make sense.
Vroul and Snar had just gotten home when Pril told them to shut up.
Pril: "Shhh watch."
We could see that egg at the bottom of the cave was starting to hatch.
