Ravishing.

That was the only way I could describe the new lamia that just came.

I was entirely captivated by her toned snow-white body that perfectly fit with her blood-red hair and emerald green reptilian eyes. Even her lower snake half, which matched her hair color, did not look unnatural and gave her a drop-dead gorgeous monster beauty vibe. Just like the unconscious lamia, she was also not wearing any clothing, and that only enhanced her deadly beauty. She looked like a warrior that can make her enemies surrender just with her looks. She was holding a spear and looking at me with a frown. But even when frowning, her beauty did not diminish.

I was in a complete daze when she spoke again.

“What want?”

Shaking my dazed head a little I think to myself, ‘She can't speak properly huh’,. Well, I was happy enough that there was someone who could talk at all in this monster-filled forest.

“Can you understand me?” I ask her hoping that she would say yes.

“little understand can,” she says while still on high alert.

I breathe a sigh of relief and start to think about what to do next. She clearly cares about this lamia since she has not attacked me yet but it’s a matter of time before the unconscious one wakes up and they both team-up. Since the redhead is also wearing those bracelets, I don’t know if I can beat them while holding anything back.

‘I need information and she may be able to tell me something' thinking that I determine what I must do next. I open my bag-pack with one hand stealthily, take a metal ball out, and put it near the unconscious lamia. Now it was time to act.

“I don’t want anything from you, just let me go”

“She attacked me for no reason and I had to defend myself”, I say acting like a p*ssy who was scared.

“You let go?” she asks me while pointing at the lamia I was holding.

“You can have her just let me go”, I say still acting like a p*ssy.

She nods her head and says, “you go”.

“Really! You won't hurt me” I say acting as if I was excited.

“yes go,” she says putting her spear down.

I slowly start to move away from the lamia and the redhead starts slithering toward her unconscious friend. I was walking slowly to not get out of [Metal Handling] range.

When she came close to her friend and was going to pick her up, I open multiple small holes in the metal ball and the gas starts to make its way out of the ball. The lamia was confused and did not have enough time to get out of the gas’s range. She starts to wobble and falls to the ground.

I wait for the gas to clear up and go near the red-head lamia. I check if she was really sleeping, and after confirming that I pick her up in a princess carry. I look at her and start to think, ‘She is even more beautiful up close and smells good. I sake my head and put my perverted thoughts away.

As I was about to run while carrying her, I notice that half of her lower body was on the ground and the scales might get damaged from all the dragging. I sigh and wrap her tail around my waist to not let it get dragged while I run full speed.

I had no time to use appraisal on her since it was getting dark so I start to run using my full strength towards my home.

After a while, I reach my home faster than I expected. I start to move fast as it was getting dark and I needed to bind this lamia because she won't like this situation when she woke up.

I make some chains with black obsidian and bind her hands. Then I put her in the old nest with some leather leaves. I do wonder sometimes 'why won’t this hole in the tree recover', but I know that there is no one to answer that question.

After checking that she was comfortable and completely bound, I use my appraisal.

After checking her details, I was stunned.

“I f*cked up big time”, I say for the trouble that would be coming my way soon.

Lamia Village to the South of Loswarier

*All the talking will be in lamia language*

Some lamia guards were chatting amongst themselves when another guard comes in a hurry.

“Everyone, the princess ran away again!” she says with a worried expression.

The atmosphere got serious and they all start to uncoil themselves to move out.

“We need to bring her back before the queen knows or we are all dead”

“don’t worry, it will be like the other times”

“yeah she even has the bracelets blessed by her mother”

“but it will be dark soon”

“Why are you so worried, I am sure she borough some light lamps with her”

“I bet she took all the cooking materials and tools, planning to spend the night in the forest”

“Just to be safe, let us go and at least confirm her location”

“yeah we should do that”

They go to grab their spears and some light lamps to go into the forest.
