Bab 73: Out for Blood [1]
"I will ask again, why would I do that?"
"Because we told you so."
"I'm your guard, not your slave."
"Is there a difference?"
"The fact you sound like you seriously don't know is very concerning," I sighed with a shake of my head.
It was just another day in the Shapeless Isels. I was, again, trying to deal with older Gorgons' bratty attitude while Medusa watched from the side.
What did they want this time? They wanted me to renovate the house to look like some giant medieval castle.
"Why would I do this? Its unnecessary and would draw too much attention. What we even do with that much room?" I asked, motioning to all the empty space already in the house.
There really wasn't much to be owned here.
"We're goddesses. That alone is enough reason for us to have a luxurious home," Euryale replied, placing her hands on her hips.
"You know, there's people who just wish for a roof on top their heads, and you're asking for more?" I scolded while crossing my arms.
"Well, then they're idiots for not asking for more," Stheno replied with a shrug.
From a human point of view, what she said was absolutely awful. But, since she's using a goddess' point of view, trying to explain why she should never say that would be a waste of time.
"Even so, a castle is-" I stopped myself as I sensed someone enter the island. "Oh for the love of..." I shook my head and turned to my air element. "I'll be back."
With that, I flew away and headed towards where I felt the energy. This was also weird but not in the same way Perseus was. It was odd because it was a group, not just one person like usual.
It was easy to find them, though they looked like the usual grunts. There was nothing special in them. The only difference is that they came as a group. There were six of them in total.
"Let's get this over with," I sighed before turning to my metal element and dropping down.
I killed the two furthest in the back as I landed by stabbing them through the back all the way to the other side. The rest of the group jumped in shock and took a stance as soon as they could. There was no reason to drag this on, so I created a blade on each hand and shot them at the warriors.
They easily pierced two of the warriors and one of the remaining two was unlucky enough to be directly behind one of the ones that were stabbed, causing him to share the same fate.
The last warrior took a few fearful steps back and for a second I thought he was smart enough to run away, but instead he just charged at me screaming like a maniac.
I just sliced his head off.
I burned the remains, as usual, but I couldn't shake the feeling that something was off. (Something isn't right,) I thought while glaring at the burning remains.
They never came in a group before, not to mention this one was obviously scared but they still attacked me, not to mention they didn't start with any of those speeches about being sent by the gods.
"Maybe I'm just over think-" Just as I was about to finish that sentence, a new presence just... popped into existence out of nowhere.
It was a human, but the problem wasn't that. It was where they were.
The presence appeared at the Gorgons' House.
