80.2% The Strongest Beast Tamer / Chapter 154: Spending Time with Phoebe and Sarah

Chương 154: Spending Time with Phoebe and Sarah

Once he found that out he was ready to sprint through the portal and explore the world. However, he didn't want to just disappear on everyone right away. Not to mention he wanted to spend some time with both Sarah and Phoebe before he leaves, he might not return for a while.

Taking in a deep breathe Lachlan grabbed hold of Anne and brought her back to her laboratory slowly. He took it rather easy; he could see Sophie and Sarah playing with each other in front of the huts. Maddie was nearby, resting in the shade as she kept an eye on the two.

When he landed Maddie jumped in fright, she began hyperventilating and looking up she relaxed slightly at the sight of Lachlan. She wasn't expecting anyone else to be nearby as she thought they all went down to the city.

"What's up Lachlan? Why aren't you with the others?" Maddie asked curiously. She could see that Lachlan was staring at Sarah, a bright, warming smile was plastered across his face.

Turning his attention to Maddie Lachlan answered her questions. "Nothing much, I was just doing a bit of experimentation with the help of Anne. As of right now, I'm thinking of spending some time with Sarah and Phoebe."

"So does that mean you are going to take Sarah down to the city?" Maddie asked, thinking Lachlan was slightly irresponsible. "You do remember that this run-down city is the headquarters of criminal organisations right? It certainly isn't a place you bring a child."

"Don't worry I know, and I'm not going to stay in the city but instead go visit the national parks and lakes to relax. I'll probably try and get Pedro or Elena to whip up a quick meal for us to eat for lunch," Lachlan explained his plan. He had looked at the maps Flynn had bought at Houston, and the national parks were surprisingly low on the ranking. It seems the dangers from the open waters deterred most land beasts away.

'Alright, have fun. I'll probably bring Sophie to the orphanage and have her socialise with the others," Maddie said as she stood up, stretching her muscles and cracking her knuckles.

Walking over to Sophie she picked her up and threw her into the air before catching Sophie and bringing her into her arms. "Alright Sophie, it's time to go and hang out with the other children. Lachlan's going to spend some quality time with Sarah."

"Okay mummy." Sophie held on tight as she snuggled her head into Maddie's arms. Maddie took off into the skies, heading towards the orphanage, slowly disappearing over the mountain range.

Sarah came running over to Lachlan and slammed in his legs. She placed her feet on Lachlan's as she wrapped her arms around Lachlan's leg. "Walk Lachlan walk."

Lachlan smiled brightly as he took very small legs, carrying Sarah forward with his legs. She began laughing loudly as they moved, she smiled brightly as her grip on Lachlan's legs tightened. "Lachlan, are you taking me down to the city with Phoebe?"

"Yes I am; then we're going to go sightseeing in the national wildlife parks. You don't have to worry, there's not much danger there and any of the dangers there can be easily beaten by your big brother now can't they?" Lachlan leaned over and picked Sarah up, placing her on his shoulders.

"No, they can't!" Sarah shouted as she held up her hands. Lachlan held onto Sarah's legs firmly to make sure she doesn't fall off. Taking off they flew straight up before flying off the island, heading towards the outskirts of the city.

Lachlan could see the group, just leaving the Explorer's Guild building. The building looked rather old like it was made in the 80s with thick stone slabs. The roof looked brand new, likely been replaced by something more solid to protect the ones working in the building.

Landing on the ground by the building Lachlan walked up to the group. They were busy talking to each other and discussing how they were going to build their branches here.

"We should have it by the Explorer's Guild, that way, whenever someone brings back a kill we could directly buy it from the guild," Flynn suggested. Everyone in the group nodded and looked around at the nearby buildings. Most of which were normal houses.

"What about there?" Zoe was pointing towards an open plot of land roughly 20 metres wide and 30 metres long, it was most likely going to used to build a house but the evolution came before anything could come into fruition. "There's enough room for both businesses."

"Now we have the location, what about the materials used for building?" Marie asked. "Although we could see steel, there aren't many steel manufacturers nor are they any close. As for food and stone, if the walls aren't thick enough the beasts could easily tear through them like it's nothing."

"What if we build it underground?" Simon suggested. "You know, similar to what the whole city of Houston is doing. Should we build a whole system underground that connects to places with the largest gatherings of people, it could be used as both shelter and a safe path straight to the food."

"That's a great idea!" Flynn said loudly. The whole group agreed as it solved both problems. If they make the underground system low enough into the ground then it's almost already impenetrable, not to mention safe.

As the group were discussing Phoebe walked over to Lachlan, she raised an eyebrow at the sight of Sarah on Lachlan's shoulders. Normally, whenever they visited a place the main group would go down and scout things out before Lachlan or Chloe would even consider bringing down the children.

Seeing her frown Lachlan walked up and explained himself. "I'm planning on making my way into the other world, I've already sorted things out with Anne who now also has control over the origin gravity stone. So, with all things considered I wanted to make the most of the time I have and spend it with my two favourite people."

"Alright, so what do you have planned?" Phoebe asked as she placed her hands on her hips. "As you can see there aren't exactly many things to do here, it's basically a ghost town."

"There are a few national wildlife parks, all low in danger ranking. How about we go there and have a picnic or something along those lines?" Lachlan asked. "None of us has done anything like that in over two years, I think it'll be fun and relaxing."

"Alright, but instead, let's do it like a camping trip. Startup a wood fire, one of us can go get some meat and we barbeque it," Phoebe suggested her own idea. "Although it may not seem like it; I was pretty big into camping trips back before the Earth evolved."

"Nah, I could surprisingly see that actually," Lachlan said as he nodded, slightly puckering his lips, lowering his eyebrows. "As for me, I've never gone camping before the world evolved, used to spend most of my time at home or mucking around with friends around the streets."

"I could see that." Phoebe nodded with a smile and likely chuckled. "Now, let's get going; since we only have roughly half the day left to do this."

Nodding Lachlan held onto Sarah firmly as both he and Phoebe took off into the air. The group didn't mind at all, they didn't need either Lachlan's or Phoebe's assistance in anything they were currently doing.

Lachlan decided against going to a majority of the wildlife parks near New Orleans, most of them were swamps that were likely filled to the brim with crocodiles. Something Chloe would probably very much enjoy.

Instead, they were flying a bit away to get to Kisatchie National Forest. Although Lachlan wasn't sure, he hoped it had the perfect setting for this picnic. He wanted a wide, open area just by the streams. Surrounded by large trees, the leaves, used for shade.

That's what he wanted, and fortunately, that's exactly what he managed to go.

When they got there they hovered above for a little while, searching for a spot to head down to. That's when Lachlan found the spot he was dreaming of; although the trees were much larger, there was still a decent amount of space by the stream to set up the fire.

Going down they landed on the ground and summoned their beasts, Phoebe let Faith stay in the stream as it wasn't able to fit on the ground. The rest of the tames relaxed with them as Phoebe was setting up the wood.

Once she was done she glared at Lachlan and raised her eyebrows. "Come on, you don't expect me to start the fire as well, especially when there's someone that can do it so easily."

Lachlan smiled and chuckled as he raised a hand. A small ball of fire gentle floated from his hand onto the wood, setting it alight. Sarah immediately ran up to the fire and held out her hands, feeling the warmth it emitted from itself.

"Lachlan, come over here and do what I'm doing, it feels so nice," Sarah said as she turned her head towards Lachlan. Her bright eyes filled with joy as her whole body was warming up by the fire.

Walking over Lachlan felt the fire. The warmth it radiated was something he hadn't felt in a while, it was almost scorching hot but it felt nice as well. Although they had the wind stones they didn't give off the same feeling, as the fire didn't blast them with hot air.

Lachlan squatted right behind Sarah and held his arms out above her head. Spreading open his hands he moved his fingers, wriggling them around. Lachlan realised how much their group was adapted to the cold weather, as sometimes, they didn't bother to set up a campfire during the days that they were sleeping on the beach.

Phoebe came over to Lachlan and squatted down, leaning over she rest her head on Lachlan's shoulders. "How about you get one of the birds to go and get something for all of us to eat? Tell them to make sure it's a large beast."

'You heard her, who's up for it?' Lachlan asked all his beasts telepathically. All of them were currently behind him, they were doing nothing but staring around at the forest and stream.

'I'll do it father' Disaster was surprisingly the first to volunteer for the job, he seemed rather excited as well. 'I'll make sure to bring back something none of us will be able to finish eating.'

Taking off Disaster nearly blew out the fire, fortunately, Lachlan made sure to take control over the fire to stop that. The fire continued to blaze onwards, as it was burning through the small sticks that Phoebe had set up.

Lachlan stood up abruptly, surprising Phoebe who was resting her head on him. He walked over to the side where one of the surrounding trees were and looked up at the branches. Bending his knees he shot up, swiftly reaching the branch without a problem.

The branch was dark brown, it was as thick as the average person's thigh. Placing his hand on it Lachlan used his control over the wind and blasted out a blade. Slicing the branch from its tree.

Falling down Lachlan fell down with it, slightly slower than it as well. It slammed into the ground, creating a loud thumping sound as it snapped in half from the impact. Lachlan used precise wind control to cut the branch into much smaller pieces, perfect size for the wood fire.

He brought a piece over and tossed it on before returning to his original position. Phoebe sighed before resting her head on Lachlan's shoulders again, she wrapped one arm around Lachlan's neck and held out the other to the fire.

They spent their time in that position before Disaster came back with his kill. It was a large boar, just ever so slightly smaller than the intelligent beast Simon had killed.

Aaron walked up to it and sliced it into individual parts, the beasts got the largest chunks as they needed it while Lachlan, Phoebe, and Sarah got pieces that weighed roughly 2 - 3 kilos.

Lachlan made a thin but strong stuck out of one of the wooden pieces, he started cutting up the meat with slow blades of wind and sticking it onto the stick. He was creating a kebab.

Phoebe and Sarah stared at Lachlan with wide eyes, or more specifically, they were staring at the kebab in his hands.

Lachlan sighed before creating a few more sticks, he swiftly cut off their pieces of meat, turning them into kebabs before placing them around the fire. They then waited and every so often Lachlan for turn the side facing the fire.

The three began to talk about life and everything going on. Sarah had decided that her future goal was to make a bunch of friends and create a group similar to Lachlan's and Phoebe's.

The two laughed as told Sarah that is was a great idea, but then Lachlan told her that she would need to spend more time with the children at the orphanage if she ever wanted a chance of that ever happening.

She gladly agreed to Lachlan's suggestion, telling them that she's managed to form closer bonds to the children she was once with at Mount Barker.

Time passed quickly, Lachlan's beasts were no longer standing but rather, they were huddled up behind the tree, forming a sort of shield around them.

Lachlan could see through the gaps in the tree branches that the sun was getting low, darkness was beginning to consume the forest. Standing up he brushed any dirt of his butt. "Alright, we should probably get going the sun's getting real low and I'd rather not spend the night sleeping in the wilderness."

Lachlan then walked over and lifted up Sarah. She was already asleep, her head tilted as though she was dead but Lachlan could clearly hear her breathing.

Carrying her like a princess Lachlan unsummoned his tames, Phoebe did the same before they returned to the island to sleep with each other. Lachlan used the wind stone to create a warm, comforting atmosphere inside the hut as he and Phoebe went to sleep.

The others returned from the city an hour later, all of them looked exhausted and stressed. They barely even talked as they swiftly returned to their huts to get some sleep; they had a long day of constructing and there were so many more problems than they expected.

Chương 155: Outside the Cave

Lachlan woke up, and turning to his side he noticed both Sarah and Phoebe weren't there. They had likely woke up early and prepared for something to eat, maybe even prepared something for him as well.

Lachlan groaned as he stretched his body across the bed, he got up and did some more stretches before finally walking outside, equipping his armour as he walked through the doors. His nose was greeted by the scent of roasted meat, properly seasoned.

Looking around Lachlan noticed Pedro, Elena, and Valentina cooking over a fire. There was a crocodile corpse right behind them, parts had been slightly skinned with large chunks of meat missing.

Most of the group was by the fire, only Simon, Maddie, and Joe were still in their huts. Lachlan walked over to the little gathering of people, the fire radiated a blazing heat as it sizzled the meat, letting off a powerful scent that went straight through the nostrils.

"Well, well, well, what do we have going on over here?" Lachlan asked as he joined them. They usually didn't set something like this up, very rarely would they have Pedro or Elena cook for them at the centre of the island.

"Well, you are leaving aren't you? We decided to give you a celebratory farewell," Pedro stated as he took the meaty sausages off the fire. Whipping out a soft roll he placed it in before covering it in vegetables and sauces. "Here, for you."

"Oh, so you all know now?" Lachlan grabbed the food from Pedro's hands, the roll had been heated up by the meat. Lachlan took a bite of it, the juices from the meat-filled his mouth, Lachlan swiftly snapped out of his blissful moment. "I was planning on telling you all today but yeah, I'm leaving to explore the other world."

"You want anyone to come along with you? Or do you want to do it solo?" Flynn asked as he was given food by Pedro. Chloe was by his head, resting her head against his shoulders as they both ate the food.

"I'd rather not have anyone come along with me; the only ones I would ever want though would be Simon and Joe. At least that way the men in that world won't take much notice of us," Lachlan replied. "Aaron, my tame, the one who lived there told me that the people of that world are barbaric, so I don't want to bring anyone who would attract attention."

"You know what? That's actually a pretty fair reason." Chloe agreed with Lachlan's reasoning. "Lachlan is only going there to tame a beast, but if he were to bring along a female who knows how troublesome the matter would become. He would probably get stopped by just about every male, wanting to challenge him for the female if they're that barbaric."

'Master, Chloe is completely correct, rather, that's what they were even doing before my world evolved. They would have contests of strength, the winner would win some woman's hand in marriage' Aaron informed Lachlan of how right Chloe was.

'Even the one Baron, Aaron? The one you respect so much?' Lachlan asked.

'Indeed, although there was still a romantic connection before the contest; the contest just made him more determine, he didn't want any other man to lay a finger on the woman he cares so much for' Aaron swiftly explained that Baron Aaron's circumstances were slightly different.

'However, I'm guessing now that they've turned to a more barbaric path, they don't exactly think too much about anything like that and just take what they want' Lachlan said to Aaron as he took another bite.

'Indeed, it's now truly survival of the fittest in my world, where even the humans use only their strength to fight against others rather than their brains. To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if some beasts became smarter than humans' Aaron explained his perspective of his own world. 'Although I was only on the mainland for a day or two before setting off into the great ocean.'

'So how long exactly did it take you to reach the island from the mainland? I forgot' Lachlan asked as he scratched his head from embarrassment.

'It took exactly 4 weeks to reach the island from the mainland; that is also with only 2 breaks during the entire time' Aaron said proudly. 'That's right, I only slept twice during the time flying, and although my body was completely exhausted by the end it was worth it.'

'Why didn't you rest more? You could have died from overworking yourself you know?' Lachlan felt as though Aaron did something rather reckless and idiotic. It would have been horrible if Aaron wasn't able to make it all the way to the island, Lachlan wouldn't have ever known about the spatial gates, nor would he have tamed Aaron in the first place.

'Well, I wanted to rest but the only problem was...' Lachlan could feel Aaron slightly tearing up from through the contract. 'The only problem was... there weren't any more islands in sight, not a single one, it really was just the great ocean.'

'So you're telling me you almost died getting to the island because there weren't enough smaller islands along the way? Also, why didn't you just stop by and live on one of the other islands?' Lachlan felt as though he was talking to a child, there were so many problems in his story that can't be explained with logic.

'Well, there were other beasts there, some griffons as well. I thought I would be accepted and integrated into their little society easily but instead, they bullied me off the island.' Lachlan felt like sticking his head into the ground like an emu.

'Why didn't you just use your strength to fight back?' Lachlan asked as he was on the edge of facepalming himself so hard he knocks himself out. If he got one more rediculous answered he may as well hide his face from the world.

'Well, that's not how Sarah raised me' Aaron's reply stumped Lachlan in his tracks. 'Sarah was incredibly strong but had a large heart as well. She raised me to not abuse my strength, but rather, use it for the wellbeing of others.'

'She certainly sounds like a great person' Lachlan felt like summoning Aaron and giving him a tight, comforting hug. 'Suppose that's the reason behind why you didn't attack us with your elemental powers when we first arrived in your cave?'

"Kind of, but it was more so because I was extremely curious as to why you weren't completely barbaric and mindless like the other humans on my planet' Aaron explained honestly. 'I mean seriously, I hadn't seen intelligent life for weeks in that cave and the last time I saw a human they attempted to kill me. But you, on the other hand, you only knocked me unconscious, but not only that, you were curious about the entire cave and the things in it.'

'So you were curious about me?' Lachlan thought about it and it added up with Aaron's curious nature. It also explained why he didn't really hesitate when it came to being tamed by him, as though he wanted it.

'Indeed, I was curious as to why, with all your strength and comrades that you didn't decide to end my life right there. As on my planet, it's customary to kill the animals/beasts you beat in a fight, it's also a matter of honour as well' Aaron explained.

'Honour eh' Aaron felt as though Lachlan went into a trance, as he was reminiscing on past memories. The day they returned to Sydney and helped people escape, yet May was so stubbornly bent on getting revenge and protecting her honour.

'Honour is basically pointless in the survival of the fittest, no one cares how honourable you are, they only care about your strength and how far you're going to go to survive and protect those dear to you' Lachlan remarked as he sighed rather loudly, getting everyone's attention for a split second.

Seeing that Lachlan swiftly scuffed the meal down, he then turned to every as he stood up and stretched his back. "Alright, I'll be going now. When I come back this island better not be gone, also, make sure my little sister stays safe."

Sarah came running up to Lachlan as she wrapped herself around Lachlan's legs. "No! You're not allowed to leave again! Maybe this time you won't come back!"

Lachlan's heart ached at the sight but he knew he needed to power through and tame a worthy beast. Bending over Lachlan grabbed Sarah by the shoulders and threw her up, catching her as she fell before placing her on his shoulders.

"Listen, Sarah, your big brother needs to do this to get stronger alright," Lachlan took Sarah off his shoulders as he felt the soft petter patter of teardrops falling on his hair. Holding her in on arm Lachlan wiped the tears from her face. "You don't have to worry Sarah, your big brother is strong and won't be defeated or in any danger where I'm going. You just have to wait patiently here alright? You still have everyone here to look after you and play with you alright?'

Sarah nodded slowly as she sniffled and wiped the tears from her face. She was shaking her head before wrapping her arms around Lachlan's neck, she held on firmly, with all her strength. "I don't want Lachlan to leave me again. How long will you be gone for?"

"Oh, well if I try hard I should only be away for a month or two, I could possibly even shorten that time down to a week if I get lucky," Lachlan explained as he held onto Sarah tightly. "And if you continue to cheer me on, who knows, maybe I'll be back in a day."

Putting Sarah down Lachlan tousled Sarah's hair with a bright smile. "Remember, you have to wait patiently for me every day. Also, by the time I get back I'm hoping you make some new friends alright? You need to at least double them by the time I get back okay?'"

"Alright, come back quickly." Sarah ran up and gave Lachlan one more hug, standing on her tippy toes she wrapped her arms around his waist before letting go. "If I do that will Lachlan take me to explore the other world one day as well?"

Lachlan felt frozen for a moment as he himself wasn't entirely certain how the people there would react to his sister, someone who was so cute and innocent. Just the thought of it made his blood churn but seeing his sister's puppy eyes his heart softened and melted. "Alright, but only once I have the necessary strength to protect you alright?"

"Okay, have fun," Sarah said as she began to wave. The rest of the group said their goodbyes before Lachlan shot into the air and headed towards the orphanage. When he landed he swiftly made his way to the cave and walked through the darkness.

As he looked back he noticed at one point the cave entrance behind him disappears entirely, he knew he was in the other world. Although it didn't feel the slightly best different, it was odd.

This time he didn't continue on his path to the main cave where all the farmers were but turned around and began carving against the wall using wind and water. He slowly but surely dug himself a path that circled around the gate.

Walking alongside it he looked to his side, in hopes of seeing the edge of the gate. Unfortunately, it seems a tear in space is a lot thinner than Lachlan thought. He didn't mind though and continued along his journey.

He walked for a couple of minutes before he finally got a glimpse of sunlight, the light rays were powerful as they lit up the cave entrance. Walking out he was hit by a gust of ocean air, the salty went straight through his nostrils.

He looked around and noticed nothing really different about the island. Sure it wasn't his island but there didn't seem to be anything special. The only noticeable feature was its size, it stretched for probably 10 - 15 kilometres.

Looking up he noticed something that almost shocked him, but confirmed the reality that he was in an entirely different world. There were three suns, all different sizes, but all radiating and blazing heat.

'You never told me that your planet had three suns!' Lachlan exclaimed to Aaron.

'You never asked' Aaron replied.
