Bab 222: Miriam is impressive!
In the steamy wetlands, Sarcos watched as Xander and Ramse torture-trained Mathyas. The Black Lizard King suffered a lot, but it was working, he did become calmer. He started to be more kind to Miriam as well. He realized she is kind and very funny. She tried to help him and support him and he slowly start getting used to her.
The falcon screeched in the sky and landed on Sarcos's hand."Letters."He smiled. He went to find Ramse and Xander. They trained the fights with Mathyas. Miriam was sitting under the flowery pergola and watched them excitedly.
"Queen Miriam, "Sarcos smiled at her."How are you going on with your king?"
"He is much nicer now," she nodded."He did not get lashed today yet," she said proudly.
"Thank you for your help. If you need help in the future, feel free to call on me too."Sarcos nodded.
"Thank you, my king."Miriam smiled. She never thought to have so many handsome kings around her!
Ramse saw Sarcos with letters and came to him. Xander let Mathyas rest and went too.
"Mathyas, you as well," Sarcos called him.
"News from Crystal City.One letter for me!" Sarcos grinned."One for Ramse, one for Xander and a little one for Mathyas." he gave him the note.
" Listen well and get better." Mathyas read aloud and shook his head." Well, at least something."He nodded and hid the note in his shirt. It kind of made him feel good, he got the letter as well!
" You don't really deserve it."Xander scoffed. He read his letter and blushed. He hid it in his clothes too.
Ramse looked at his letter." Sienna is asking me to help her find a female Magnus lost long ago. " he showed his letter to Sarcos.
"Hmm, " Sarcos looked at the letter."Sienna quite likes you now!" he noted a bit surprised.
"Well, I should show her how capable I am and get it done."Ramse nodded."I will write to my father straight away. May I borrow your falcon?"He looked at Sarcos.
"Sure."Sarcos gave him the letter back and bit his lips.
Ramse went to Sienna's drawing room, with a falcon sitting in his hand. He fed the bird and then he sat at the table and stared at his letter.
"This is the first letter she ever wrote to me!"Ramse smiled."She even printed her lips on it! And drew me a little heart." he chuckled and felt so happy. He wrote the enquiring letter and sent the falcon to his father.
Ramse sat in the drawing room for a bit longer, listing thru Sienna's drawings.
Sarcos went to the drawing room curiously, he was wondering what is taking Ramse so long."What have you got here?" Sarcos looked at the drawings.
"Sienna's pictures."Ramse nodded."They remind me that it was not all a dream." he bit his lips.
"She drew all this..."Sarcos looked at it. Suddenly he stopped and stared. He was looking at the sketch of a very handsome face!" No! Not you!" he called upset. "Ramse, what is this?" he grabbed the picture and looked at him.
"The golden scorpion, "Ramse shook his shoulders nonchalantly."Sienna said he paid for her to some black cloud when she kissed Marath, she was quite messed up from that magic stuff."
"That is what I was worried about."Sarcos held his forehead."Marath has the essence of black magic. It reacted with her mark! Sienna has a mark made from protective magic gold. It is from his golden armoured tail. He is irresistible to her now. He will call on the hunt!"
"What? Irresistible?"Ramse furrowed his brows. He did not like the idea.
"Ramse, I will need your help. I need you to become Sienna's public enemy!"Sarcos looked at him a bit desperately.
"But she just started to like me!" Ramse moaned and waved the letter from Sienna in his hand.
"If you became her enemy you will be able to protect her when I can not."Sarcos looked at him."As here, with Mathyas," he sighed."I will do anything for you if you do it," Sarcos added.
"Including helping me to become her mate?" Ramse lifted his eyebrow.
"Yes!" Sarcos nodded.
"Ok, I will do it after she visits Waterfall City."Ramse sighed.
"Sure." Sarcos nodded."Then we mess it up."
"How?"Ramse asked curiously.
"Do you mind humiliating yourself badly?"Sarcos started to make a plan.
"Not for Sienna's sake. I will do anything to keep her safe!"Ramse nodded his head and sighed.
"Thank you."Sarcos nodded.
"But I should level up more."Ramse stared at him."I want to be able to match Sharchan at least."
"Sure, we will train every second night."Sarcos nodded.
That night Ramse did not go to sleep. He was fighting for his life with Sarcos.
Sarcos beat him badly, but Ramse's heart was strong."I'm doing this for her." he bit his lips and kept fighting till his ape form passed out a few times. Just before twilight, he dragged his sorry body to bed. He blacked out into the darkness, his body felt as if on fire but his mind was calm. Ramse felt his powers are levelling up. He saw the mirage of two blue eyes in front of him and felt happy. As the sun went out, he pick up the letter folded on his chest. It was a bit dented from his fight. He opened it and grinned."I had to become stronger to protect you well, Sienna!" he stared at her lips printed on his letter.
Ramse rested for a few hours and then went to see Xander and Mathyas. They were already training in the garden training grounds.
"What happened to you?'Xander looked at Ramse's sorry state.
"I trained with Sarcos a little at night."Ramse nodded."You will train Mathyas today, Xander."He told to the panther.
Mathyas saw Ramse was all beaten up and his eyes lit up excitedly. "But I want to train with you too." he said a bit revengefully."I can surely take him on so beaten..." he chuckled in his mind.
"Ok then. "Ramse grinned and came into the training ground."Don't restrain yourself, Mathyas."
Mathyas changed into a black lizard and attacked Ramse viciously. Ramse smacked the lizard hard. It flew high into the air and smashed at the rock painfully. Mathyas was knocked out for a few minutes!
"Never underestimate your enemy!" Ramse grinned as he woke Mathyas up with a few slaps.
Mathyas bit his lips."Thank you for the lesson, Ramse. I will surely remember it." he rubbed his burning cheeks.
" You welcome. I like when you are polite."Ramse grinned again.
" You seem too strong for a beaten man. "Xander chuckled."How did you fake these injuries, hm?"
"I did not fake them. I was fighting with Sarcos the whole night and I levelled up again."Ramse stretched his hurting body satisfied."Let's go hunt today!"
"Sure, a trip will be nice."Xander nodded.
"Come on a hunting trip with us Miriam, Mathyas will catch you fresh fish and we cook them at the fire, hm?"Xander looked at the Mathyas's training queen.
"Sure ."Miriam smiled."We will gave a picnic." she clapped her chubby hands excitedly. Xander changed into a huge black panther and took Miriam on his back.
They all went to the forest to hunt. Only Sarcos stayed behind as he was working in the office again.
Ramse, Xander with Miriam and Mathyas came to a clearing with a wide wild stream deep inside the forest. The water in it bubbled and broke onto sharp rocks as if singing. Its sound was so pleasant to listen to. Xander let Miriam down and went to catch some prey. Ramse with Miriam watched as Mahyas caught a few fish for her. Xander came back shortly with a freshly killed deer, then again and again. He was like a hunting machine!
Mathyas roasted the fish on fire for Miriam. She gobbled them up but was still hungry. "I like to go for a bath," she looked at Xander a bit cheekily.
"Feel free, we will not look."Xander nodded.
"Well, I don't mind if you do." she chuckled as she changed into a huge female crocodile!
The kings stared. Mathyas swallowed hard. She was two times bigger than his lizard!!!
"You look impressive, Miriam." Xander chuckled.
Miriam went inside the water and play around happily. She ate raw fish like the hungry beast she was.
"Why I was catching the fish and cooking then? "Mathyas shook his head. "We could just take her to hunt with us." he moaned a bit.
"Only if you want to keep her as a queen for real and mate with her."Ramse chuckled."She is your training queen. Do not forget that you might not get a queen from a crocodile tribe, so you still need to learn how to take care of any female properly." he said seriously.
"Mate her? She is stronger than me probably."Mathyas swallowed hard." She would eat my lizard in two bites as a snack." he noted.
"Hahaha, you are right."Xander chuckled. "It is good you behave well then. You should take her dancing tonight to make out sweet with her, so she doesn't eat you in your sleep." he laughed.
