Chapitre 21: Chapter 21- Another Detour
Tru walked through the forest while chewing on some dried meat he had got from V. Shadow laid on his head with his body looped across his shoulders.
Tru looked up at the lazy serpent before open ding up his map. He looked at for a while before he realized he had no idea where he was exactly. He put the map away when he came across a heard of Giant Boars.
He and Shadow stared at them while they grazed and then continued walking. He looked toward the sky and saw the bright sun hanging above. Shadow suddenly jumped up and jumped into a bush.
It rustled for a bit as scuffling sounds sounded from it. A bit later shadow emerged with a weasel that was about the size of a mid sized dog. It had long black claws and it fur was brown.

Description: "A small magical beast that feast on smaller or non magical beasts. Also a steals eggs in order to snack on them later. Also known to hoard treasures or things it likes."
Shadow dropped the beast before Tru and happily wagged his tail. Tru rubbed the Necrocoil's head and grabbed the magic Stone and the beasts skin. He put it in the pouch he had got from V and was impressed by the size capacity.
"She wasn't lying when she said it had a increased size. Money really does get you anything huh." Tru walked and changed rhe Black Bradelet to Standard. He then put in the magic stone and watched as it melted into it.

"Mission Progress 6/10"
"Ok only four more Rank E's to take down and we'll just have that last mission. Though we need a bit more experience under our belt before we can take one down. All the ones I've encountered so far were injured or dead by other means.
Well never mind that we can do that after we meet up with Carson and Camelot." Tru spoke tiredly as they kept walking. He came to a large rock and took a quick rest. Shadow slid off his shoulders and found another Feral Weasel hunting after a Bloom Hawk.
It waited patiently to strike when Shadow rushed in and stole its prey. It ate the small bird in one gulp and turned towards the brown rodent. Its eyes locked onto the magical beast as it neared closer.
The Weasel shook with with so hard that it made a small yellow puddle. Shadow looked down and stuck its tongue out at it as it ran off. Shadow looked up at Tru who was resting when the latter gave it a nod of approval.
"SKAAA"
Shadow happily took after the Feral Weasel as it tried to evade the large black snake. The brown beast ran behind a massive sized bush and disappeared. Shadow followed behind and when it exited from the bush and came to a large boneyard.
The bones were massive and there were several set of them. Shadow slithered around when it found the Feral Weasel hiding in a nest inside a skull. Shadow flicked its tongue out and continued looking around, ignoring the magical beast.
It eventually came to a large hole dug in the ground with straw at the bottom. In the middle of the nest were two large large brown eggs. Greed fans hunger filled Shadow's eyes when out the corner he saw the Feral Weasel.
It left the eggs and chased after the eluding beast. Shadow used Shadow orb and blasted the beast directly into a fossilized ribcage. The weasel laid there helpless as it was hit with a Shadow fang and finished it off.

"Mission progress 7/10"
"Huh what the hell is Shadow doing?" Tru sat up confused as he looked around. Shadow eventually showed up and climbed the rock. Though instead of climbing his shoulders Shadow just stood there and looked at Tru.
"You ok? You're acting weirder than normal. Besides you were supposed to catch the beast not eat it!" Tru spoke angrily but was ignored when the Necrocoil turn and slithered away.
"HEY! Where are you goin?! Don't ignore me!" Tru angrily packed up his stuff and ran after Shadow. He saw Shadow slip into the large bush and he followed. He saw the large graveyards filled with the massive magical beast bones.
"A graveyard filled with Basilisk bones? Must be where all the basilisk breed and die." Tru looked around as he followed sábados when he came to the giant hole.
He leaned forward to get a closer look when he slipped and fell down the hole. He smashed into one of the eggs and got yolk all over him. He wiped himself off when he looked you and saw Shadow at the top.
"Ugh, just my look. I seriously need a bath like majorily." He flung off the rest of yolk when he looked down and saw the unbroken egg. He picked it up and felt a faint heart belt pulse from it. Shadow jumped down and began to eat the rest of the smashed egg.
"Yeah buddy I'm glad one of us benefited from this at least. But I don't think it's wise to stay here for too long. Not even sure how you managed to find this place." Tru put the egg away in his pouch and climbed out the hole.
Shadow exited shortly look full as a tick, barely away to hold itself up. Tru rolled his eyes and started to leave out the graveyard when the ground started rumbling.
*thuuumm*
*thuuuuuum*
*thuuuuuuuuuuuum*
The sounds and vibrations got closer as Tru ran for the entrance they came in. He jumped into the bushes with Shadow trialing behind. The young Necrocoil looked back and saw the Grand Basilisk come in and head straight for the hole.
It neared the hole and saw that is was empty. It jumped down and saw the egg shells of one egg but not the other. The large beast began to tear up the nest searching for the other egg but eventually stopped.
"SKRAAAAAAAAAWWWW"
The Grand Basilisk howled in anger as it cries sounded through out the Emerald Forest. Tru grabbed Shadow and began running towards Wanderers fog. Shadow bounced uncontroabnly until Tru came to a abrupt stop.
"Of all things a Basilisk nest?! We could have died, let alone that I took the egg!" Tru shouted to the skies.
Tru brought Shadow and looked it dead jn the eye. "You couldn't have found a more, i don't know, less deadly beast nest?! It's bad enough the damn gauntlet wants us to kill it!" Tru complained to hard he could feel his anxiety rising.
"Never mind it's not your faul. Just my luck is all." Tru put down Shadow as he took out the Basilisk Egg. Shadow eyed the egg greedily and began moving towards it. Tru moved the egg out the Necrocoil's reach.
"No no. I've got to return it, well at least try too. Don't need that thing trying to hunt us down." Tru put the egg away as Shadow gave me a sad look. He picked up the sulking snake and placed it on his shoulders.
"So until we get it back to where it belongs YOU are to make sure nothing happens to it. Don't worry I'll be keeping it safe of course, but it's protection falls on you." He happily patted Shadows head who was eyeing the pouch.
Tru kept walking until he started to see trees that looked hollow and dead. In addition a large thick nalmket of fog emerged as he walked. It became hard to see as he continued forward.
"This must be the right place because I can't see a thing." Tru squinted as he continued forward when a Skywing Crow dropped down in front of him.
"Caaaaw! Caaaaaw!"
The crow eyed him wearily when it was blasted backwards with Ifrit's Shot. It was soon caught on fire and burned away to a crisp. Tru walked over and grabbed the Magic stone and absorbed it.

"Mission progress 8/10"
Tru grinned happily as he continued forward. He came across some broken ruins and a giant courtyard. He looked at the courtyard and saw signs of a battle. He began looking around the place.
He for a old broken chapel but no one was inside. He then went and checked the giant mansion in the center but now was there either. Tru found himself entering a old armory when he heard a weak raspy voice.
"Sure..*cough*…took your….*cough*….precious…*gasp*….time…"
