Chapter 61.

The next day, after Nowi had a good and fun dinner with the Shepherds and after the girls apologized to her for overwhelming her and making her run away, I got up really early and headed to my Workshop to get back to work, though on my way I found Sully speaking with herself, while Robin was walking past her, "ah, crap, come on Sully, get you damn act together...".

Robin stopped in his track and so did I, Robin being the closest, decided to ask Sully what was wrong, while I made my way over to them, "Sully? what are you mumbling about?... and why are you holding your side? is everything all right?".

Sully grunted, which made me and Robin really worried about her, Sully however, shook her head and said, "I'm fine! it's nothing!... leave me alone!".

I raised an eyebrow at Sully, that outburst was a bit of a surprise actually, "what crawled up your butt and a died?".

Sully snorted and looked amused, so that told me she was not angry per say, so something else must be going on, Robin scratched his head though and then said, "you look anything but fine, Sully, your not hurt, are you?".

Sully sighed and then spoke, " no, I... All right, I put on weight and my muscle mass is down, you believe that? we're fighting a war and I'm getting a gut".

I couldn't help but dryly looked at Sully, "really Sully?... I dont think it affects you in any way though, you don't seem weaker nor slower, are you sure you should be worrying about this?".

Sully shrugged and sighed, "well, I am worried, I don't want this to affect my fighting".

Robin sighed and shook his head, "what, are you sure? you look the same as ever though, I don't see how you gained weight".

Sully narrowed her eyes and then said, "then you aren't looking hard enough, I'm worried Frederick would mind this and scold me or something, future husband or not, I don't want to disappoint him".

I shook my head to what Sully said and then spoke up, "I don't think Frederick would care Sully, besides, your the most physically active of the Shepherds, so I don't think you've gotten weaker or anything like that".

But Sully still looked unsure, which seemed to surprised Robin quite a bit, "well, this is a side of you I've never seen".

Sully huffed at Robin, it looks like she got a bit offended by Robin's words and well, she has every right to be, despite not being a girly girl, Sully is still a woman, "the hell you talking about?".

Robin jumped a bit, realizing that he might had put his foot in his mouth, "well, I just... didn't think you were the kind of person to worry about your figure".

I sighed and shook my head, "damnit Robin, nooo...".

Sully huffed and sighed, "Gods, but you are a blooming ninny, this isn't about looks! I said my muscle mass dropped! and that's going to affect combat, which could get my arse killed!".

Robin jumped at getting yelled at by Sully, though he kind deserved the yelling he's getting though, he completely misunderstood Sully's concerns, "eeeep! I mean, um, yes! of course! I get it!... please don't hurt me...".

Sully looked confused at Robin's reaction, while I snorted in amusement, "hurt you? why the hell would I do that?".

I sighed and shook my head, "ladies and gentlemen? the Grandmaster of the Shepherds".

Robin glared at me, while Sully grinned finding my comment funny, the Grandmaster soon sighed and coughed to regain his bearings, "well, if you are worried about weight redistribution, you could try this".

Robin reached into one of the many pockets inside his coat and pulled out a bottle with some kind of liquid inside, he uncorked it and the smell made Sully and me flinch away, I even gagged a bit with how horrible whatever it is that liquid Robin just pulled out of his coat, Sully shook her head and grimaced, "Gods, it smells like horse slop! what is it, some kind of soup?".

Robin reached two of his fingers inside the bottle and then pulled something out of it and show it to Sully, "It's a rare form of seaweed, actually, I bought it back in the town we visited a while back".

I raised an eyebrow at what Robin said and then thought about for a second before realizing what he was talking about, "... you bought that from the Merchant when we bought all of those ingredients for Stahl?".

Robin smiled and nodded, "yeah! the old merchant told me that it contained 'insane quantities of fiber' then he just kept saying 'insane' and cackled while doing a little strange dance... quite an odd fellow, really".

The old Merchant really was an odd guy, I think he Inhaled way too many fumes from the things he was selling actually, because he really would dance around once in a while, Sully looked unsure though and I don't blame her, "hmm... sounds risky".

Robin smiled and then said, "well, I know how brave you are...".

Sully's eyebrow suddenly began to twitch as she deadpanned at Robin, "is that a dare? fine then! I'll try it!".

Robin grinned and then said, "great! to tell the truth, I've put on a few pounds myself lately... I've been meaning to try the seaweed but was too scar- er! too busy...".

I sighed and shook my head, Robin can sure be an evil bastard sometimes, he's totally trying to use Sully as a test dummy, Sully laughed a bit at the fact that Robin gained weight, "ha! too much pie... hey, that's your problem! all right then, Robin, let's see who can get in shape faster!".

They both turned their heads to look at me and gave me some odd expectant looks, "... fuck that! I'm not eating that thing! my senses certainly don't like it".

I quickly left, while both Sully and Robin called me a wus, let's see how much the laugh when that seaweed hits them hard later on.


After leaving both Robin and Sully to their crazy ideas, I continued to walk to my Workshop, though along the way, I heard some sort of music coming from a clearing on the woods, curious about it, I followed the music and was surprised to find Cordelia playing some sort of music.

Though I wasn't the only one attracted to Cordelia's music, some of the Pokémon seemed to like it quite a bit and were now laying down around Cordelia and relaxing while listening to the music, Pidgeot, Meloetta, Lala-chan (Lapras) Lilligant, Wigglytuff and some other Pokémon were the ones hanging out here.

But besides the Pokémon, it seems like Stahl also heard Cordelia playing music and followed the sound, Cordelia heard him walked up to her, so she stopped playing and smiled at Stahl, "hello Stahl".

Stalh smiled and then decided to ask Cordeliaa question, "I was drawn here by the sound of sweet music, was it you playing?".

Cordelia blushed a bit but answered Stahl's question, "your kind to say so, but in truth, I'm quite out of practice".

Huh? that was a lie, Pokémon are good judges when it comes to things like music, if they like it, they will be drawn to it like moths to the flame, the fact that Cordelia is surrounded by Pokémon, is a big sign that she's really good at playing music".

Stahl seemes to agreed with my thoughts too, something evident with what he said next "what? no, you play beautifully! and one of my favorite Ylissean folks, to boot!".

Cordelia smiled and then giggled at how excited Stahl seems to be about her music playing, she then raised the harp she had been playing with and showed it to Stahl, "its been so long since last I played, I found this Harp in Xeno Town's shopping district and I just couldn't resist, so I bought it and began to play.

Rean's Domain is so peaceful and beautiful, that it just inspires me to play, the Pokémon also make for an amazing audience".

Cordelia smiled at the Pokémon around her and they all cheerfully smiled back at her, causing her to giggle, Stahl smiled at the scene and then began to speak about something he experienced, "I remember how you entranced the court by playing at Chrom's birthday ceremony last year, those were some good times... say, why don't you put on an encore performance? it's would be huge morale boost".

Cordelia looked a bit nervous and fidgeted a bit with her harp, "oh, that court concert was a long time ago, I don't even remember the music, although I suppose I could muddle through if I had the score in front of me".

What?, she was playing by memory? holy shit, that's amazing actually, Stahl figured out the same thing as well, because he immediately said, "wait, you were just playing from memory? that's even more impressive!".

Cordelia blushed a bit, at Stahl's compliment, "please, Stahl, I'm serious, stop trying to flatter me, compare to Phila, I'm just a clumsy amateur".

Stahl just shrugged though and then responded with "well, sure, but Phila was the best I've seen, she could have joined the royal orchestra ".

Damn, I didn't know Phila could play the harp good enough to be considered for a position on the royal Orchestra, I kinda want to listen to her play now, Cordelia nodded and then smiled as she said, "I always dreamed that one day I might be as skilled as her, it's silly, I know".

Stahl shook his head and then cheerfully said, "hey, never say never! especially when you're so abundantly talented!".

Cordelia smiled and then giggled at Stahl's compliments, " stop it, seriously! see, now I'm just getting embarrassed... er, oh hey! would you look at that? it's chore time... gotta go!".

And Cordelia took off running, I wonder what chores was she talking about? the Xeno and Pokémon usually take care of the chores, so the Shepherds don't really have to worry about them and just continue to train as hard as they can, maybe she got too embarrassed and made a quick excuse to get away, she does seem to be unused to people praising her.

Stahl sighed and shook his head, "that Cordelia... she's never satisfied with being second best in anything, I'm going to have to step up my game if I ever hope to compete with that!".

With that said, Stahl quickly left, more motivated now to train, the Pokémon pouted a bit since there wouldn't be anymore music, which got me thinking about picking up a instrument and learning how to play it, but which one? with Astraea's system I can certainly learn how to play any instrument in almost no time, I just have no idea which one I should try.

With that last thought running around in my head, I decided too walk to my Workshop, this morning has certainly been busy from the get go, but at least I've learned a few new things about my friends.


A few hours later.

I started putting the finishing touches on Nowi's and Gregor's new Enchanted equipment, so I had Mew go get them, my Legendary Psychic Pokémon wasted no time in teleporting the newest additions to the Shepherds, though they were both very surprised to find themselves so suddenly in front of me.

Though Nowi quickly recovered and greeted me with a cheerful smile, "oh! heya Rean! I've been looking for you everywhere! I want to play so lets play! we can wrestle or fly a,d do cool tricks in the sky!!".

I smiled at the Manakete and gaver her a headpat, honestly, all of that does sound fun, but we had things to do first, "later right now I want you guys to try your new gear and tell me how it feels and if I should make adjustments and what not".

Nowi smiled and nodded willing to put aside playing with me for now, in favor of testing out her new equipment, she knew it was very important that she did, Gregor also nodded, "Gregor was told that you were making equipment for Gregor and wee lass, Gregor is impressed".

I chuckled and then immediately handed their new equipment to Nowi and Gregor, then I lead them to the bathrooms, because, yes, I have bathrooms in my Workshop, one for me and another for my Girlfriends and Daughters, they do tend to hang around in my Workshop, whenever I'm busy with something.

A few minutes later, both Nowi and Gregor stepped out wearing their new equipment, Nowi awed at the exact replica of clothes, "wow! they look like my old clothes! but they feel much better and more comfortable!".

I chuckled seeing Nowi's excitement and began to explain, "well, I used the Shed Skin from Rayquaza to make it, it's actually very stretchy and soft, so it's one of the best materials to make stronger and durable clothing from".

Nowi widely smiled, "oh! that's the big green snake like Dragon Pokémon that likes to nap by the lake right?".

I nodded, confirming what Nowi just asked about, Rayquaza likes napping around big bodies of clean fresh water, appearantly, it's comfortable for him and his scaly skin, I always joke around with him, telling him how he likes to be moist, Nowi grinned and then smiled, "he's so cool and he can fly so high! higher than I can for sure!".

Gregor suddenly tighten his fist and nodded to himself as he moved around with his new clothes on, "Gregor likes this, what are these clothes made of?".

I smiled and explained, "everything I make, is made from Pokémon Materials, so they're far more durable and strong, plus they can take multiple Enchantments as well so they're really the best kind of Materials for crafters like myself to get their hands on and use".

Gregor nodded and he seemed happy about his his new gear, Nowi, suddenly called out to Gregor, "hey Gramps!".

Gregor frowned a stared at Nowi in silence for a few seconds, before huffing and speaking up, "Gramps? what is this Gramps? if Gregor is Gramps, then little girl is great, great, great, great Granny".

Nowi pouted at Gregor's come back, "so you know how old I am, huh? weird, most people can't stop talking about how young I look".

I hummed and bit and looked up, as I began to pipe in, "well, we Dragons just don't count as normal, we're Supernatural beings and age is something that we really don't worry about".

Nowi nodded, because no matter how old a Dragon gets, we usually act the same way we always do, we're a unchanging kind of race of Supernatural beings and the most powerful as well, there's really not much we have to worry about either, so our views differ a lot, or at least that's what Ophis explained about Dragons in general, more specifically, Dragons from my world.

Gregor suddenly grinned and said "it just, how you say, flatulence? no, wait... flippery?... flatness?... Gregor does not remember, that word when people say lies to make other person feel better".

Flattery? I thinks that's what Gregor's was trying to say, or at least I hope so, Nowi sighed and shook her head, "no idea what you're talking about, anyway, i have something to ask you".

Gregor raised an eyebrow at Nowi and then said, "if you want borrow money, answer is no, Gregor is poor like beggar".

Ah that's right, Chrom offered Gregor to pay upfront, but Gregor refused and said that he can get pay once the war was over, sort of like a satisfaction guaranteed deal, got to say, Gregor is a Chad like that, that reminds me, I should tell him about going into the Labyrinth to get money there, that way he won't be 'poor like beggar' anymore.

Nowi shook her head and then said, "yes, I know that, that's why I want to give you something".

Gregor raised an eyebrow and then said, "you give Gregor shiny gold coin?".

Nowi shook her head a shrugged "no, no one wants to give me money, I always lose it, Rean buys me anything though!".

I shrugged and explained, "well, in our defense, you did lose a big coin sack that we gave you to buy whatever you wanted... somehow, it ended up, under the tree of Torterra's shell... he doesn't even know how it got there".

And he really didn't, Torterra had been napping the whole day and when he woke up and walked into town, that's when someone noticed the coin sack under the tree on his shell, so! we decided that Nowi can't be trusted with money and so, I take care of her spending and Tiona and Tione... and pretty much everyone in the Shepherds.

Gregor sighed and nodded understanding our situation "agreed, Gregor too is sooner trusting senile squirrel with life savings!".

Nowi gasped at the burn, and it was quite the burn too, better get the Rawst Berries ready, Nowi then pointed at Gregor and then said, "heh, for your information, I happen to be quite smart! I just don't care about money, is all, us Manakete don't use it much".

I tilted my head and hummed as I thought over what Nowi just said, before I spoke up, "well, I think she has a point, most Dragon wouldn't care about Money... unless they're making a hoard, but that doesn't necessarily have to be gold".

Ophis once told me, that Dragon don't care about money, in fact, she didn't even know what that is and how it's works, in fact, she just took what she wanted, before living with us, now she knows what money is and what's used for, she also told me about a Dragon's tendency to hoard random things, I'm a prime example of this, since my hoard is my loved ones.

Gregor laughed and nodded to Nowi, "ah, is very good! money is the root of evil, so then, what you give Gregor?"

I chuckled because, Gregor is absolutely right about money, Nowi giggled and then pulled out a sweater from who knows where, "I knitted you a big, wooly sweater! see? it's got shoulder pads built in!".

"... err, it's pretty good?" I mean, don't get me wrong, it's a very well made sweater, but it's a very old style type of clothing.

Gregor, was also stunned in silence, "... now this looks like 'Gramps' clothing, also, Gregor is no good in sweater, it too hot, yes?".

Nowi didn't really mind our comments and instead puffed up her chest with pride, "yeah! but this one is really light, it really breathes! I lined it with Manakete scales".

I raised an eyebrow at what Nowi just said, Manakete scales, well Dragon Scales actually, are really rare and precious to get a hold of, for one, Manaketes are rare, they tend to isolate themselves from the world and away from people.

They also, wouldn't give away their scales to just anyone, the fact that Nowi lined this sweater with her scales not only makes it great Armored clothing, but a really precious artifact as well.

Gregor definitely knew this, and what he said next showed that he did, "scale of Manakete? Gregor is stunned, how are finding such priceless artifacts?".

Nowu just smiled and just said, "see? I thought you'd be impressed, I just had some lying around, so don't worry about it!".

Gregor smiled and nodded to Nowi, "then Gregor accepts wonderfully gift with much gratitude!".

Nowi nodded and brightly smiled at Gregor, "hee hee! glad you like it".

With that conversation done and with both Nowi and Gregor now in a very good mood, I then took them back to Ylisse, outside My Pokéhome and had them test out their new equipment on the hoards of Risen roaming around the continent.


I spent a good few hours with Gregor and Nowi roaming around Ylisse and killing Risen, it seems like they really liked their new equipment as well, since they didn't have any difficulties moving around with it on, even Nowi didn't complain and was just her usual cheerfully self, while blasting Risen with her Dragon Fire.

But after clearing the roads of Ylisse from the undead, we then headed back to My Pokéhome, both, so they can rest and I can plan what to teach them, Gregor uses a sword, so sword skills and martial arts will be what I will have him focus on.

As for Nowi, well, she's a Manakete, in her Dragon Form she's down right impossible to kill, unless you have Wyrm killing weapons, but with her new equipment, that wouldn't even be a problem anymore, since I made sure to add an Enchantment to protect her from Dragon Killing effects.

The issue, is that Nowi had no other ways of attacking other than spitting Blue Fireballs at her enemies and that she's kinda of defenseless without her Dragonstone, so, to take care of those issues, I decided to have my Dragon Type Pokémon teach her how to fight like a Dragon, I of course joined in the training as well, since I also wanted to teach her a few things that I think will be very useful to her.

So, Nowi became my first ever Dragon student, my Dragon Type Pokémon were also happy to help her and even the Legendary Dragon Type Pokémon agreed to teach her a few moves, boy, is Nowi going to be a scary fighter in the future.

These two have quite a bit to catch up, the Shepherds were already far more powerful as it is, but with everyone training to save Emmeryn, well, the Shepherds were really motived to become stronger as fast as possible, sure, Nowi and Gregor were also motived to help, but they couldn't really join in the more advanced and harsher training the Shepherds were doing at the moment.

So, I decided to personally help them by training them myself, while Tiona and Tione focus on the rest of the Shepherds, we were already on Plegia territory, soon we'll be arriving to where Emmeryn is going to be executed and everyone wanted to be ready for when that time came.


A few days later, inside My Pokéhome.

Everyone had been training hard and constantly, so I decided to give everyone a new order, that order? take a break or spar with Mew, the Shepherds immediately obeyed and ran back towards the Pokémon Center, much to Mew's disappointment.

She really wanted to spar with the Shepherds, anyways, with everyone finally resting, I decided to ask to take a rest myself, so I walked back to the Pokémon Center as well.

When I got to the Pokémon Center and stepped inside, to my surprise however I found Lon'qu and Gregor having some sort of odd silent staring contest, eventually Gregor broke the staring contest, and decided to ask Lon'qu hwat he wanted, "oy, Lon'qu, why are you having furrowed brow and narrow eyes? Gregor is ally and friend, not foe".

Lon'qu just scoffed an continued to glare at Gregor, "I know all about you Gregor, Basilio told me, he says you are the only sellsword to ever match him in single combat".

That's actually true, Gregor despite being a big goof and looking like a muscle head, he's very talented with the sword, any Sword Skill I try to teach him, he picks up right away and a few hours later, he's using it like he had been doing so for all his life, it's uncanny.

Gregor smiled and shook his head, "oy, that is from distant past, Gregor barely remember those times".

Lon'qu frowned and then said "I have also heard that you were once a candidate to become Khan of Regna Ferox".

Well, that I didn't know, but it is impressive nonetheless, Regna Ferox is full of battle junkies, the fact that Gregor was once considered for Kahn is a big sign of how strong he is and how he gained the respect of the battle maniacsof Regna Ferox.

Gregor however laughed, "ho ho! you send Gregor on trip to memory Street, he was forgetting about that!".

Lon'qu sighed, more than likely, because, the way Gregor said all of that entire sentence, wrong, "so, the stories are true? in that case, I challenge you to a duel!".

Gregor stopped laughing and raised an eyebrow at Lon'qu, "do not wave sword in Gregor's face, edge is seeming very sharp!".

I frowned and stepped forward, " I hope your not thinking about starting a fight inside the Pokémon Center... I would be most upset if you broke anything in here".

Lon'qu stood ul straight and began to nervously sweat, he quickly turned around and stared at me in surprise, I guess he was so focused on Gregor, that he didn't even sensed me "of course not! the duel will take place outside!".

I smiled and nodded, "oh good! then sheath your blade Lon'qu".

Lon'qu sweatdropped as he looked at his hand and saw that he was indeed holding his sword in said hand, he quickly sheathed the blade, "sorry, I just wish to fight using real weapons a true duel for true stakes!".

I shook my head and sighed, "we're in a war Lon'qu, you can't just challenge an ally with real weapons, that's just stupid, even if I can heal and bring people back to life, I'm not going to do it if you guys hurt each other while being idiots".

Lon'qu frowned but didn't say anything, Gregor then piped in, " he also forgets Gregor is sellsword and a professional, Gregor is not unsheathing sword unless someone is paying him much gold".

I chuckled, caused that sure is a good way to avoid a conflict when you don't want to deal with it, Lon'qu however gaped at Gregor's words, "Craven... have you no pride? or do you fear the wrath of Lon'qu?".

"Okay... you need to chill with the Wrath Lon'qu".

Lon'qu frowned but didn't say anything, Gregor just shrugged and then said, "Gregor is fearing no man, but he also does not fight without clink of coin, besides, you waste your time, yes? a fight with me will not make you stronger.

Rean's training is already doing that, Gregor is no where as strong as you at the moment".

I mean, Gregor is right, Lon'qu has been training in My Pokehome far longer than Gregor has, and has been going into the Labyrinth regularly with the rest of the Shepherds as well, something, Gregor hasn't done yet.

Lon'qu frowned and didn't say anything, Gregor seeing that he left Lon'qu speechless with his logic, laughed and then said, "enough, Gregor and Lon'qu are comrade in arms, yes? no more talk of fighting!".

Gregor then swaggered his way towards the Pokémon Center's dinning room, Lon'qu just glared at Gregor's back, "damn him...".

I just chuckled and shook my head, Lon'qu can be such a tightwad, I can see why Lissa likes messing with him, with this odd conversation out of the way, I walked over to Pokémon Center dinning room to have a meal with my friends.


Outside My Pokéhome, Plegian Desert.

A few days later, after we all felt that Nowi and Gregor were ready, we decided to continue our March through Plegia to stop Emmeryn's execution, so I brought everyone out into Plegia's Desert, and continued to march on the sand dunes of the desert.


Meanwhile, in Plegia's capital, Gangrel's castle.

Both, Aversa and Gangrel were getting a report from one of their soldiers at this very moment, Aversa frowned and then said, "so Captain, let me be certain I understand your report... not only did you not confirmed that the Ylissean party carries the Fire Emblem... but you can't be certain Prince Chrom is even among them?... is that the gist of it?".

The Capital began to nervously sweat, but nodded and then said, "y-yes milady! the air was thick with sand... even their number was difficult to ascertain".

Aversa maliciously chuckled and suddenly walked up to the Captain, "perhaps, if you had gotten closer, Captain, here, let me show you how its done... ".

Aversa got close to the Captain and suddenly stabbed him in the gut with a dagger, the Captain grunted in pain and coughed up some blood as he stared at Aversawith wide eyes full of shock and betrayal, Aversa grinned and twisted the dagger, causing the Captain to scream in pain, "n-no! I'm sorry, I- huargh!".

Aversa however, didn't want to listen to the Captain's pleas and violently pulled the dagger out, the Captain grunted in pain one more time, before dropping to the ground dead.

Aversa smiled and then said as she cleaned her Dagger, with the now dead Captain's clothes, "apology accepted".

Gangrel sighed and shook his head, "do try not to kill all the soldier, my dear, we already lost a lot soldiers during the attack at the border...".

Aversa frowned and nodded, she had forgotten herself for a moment and didn't think of her actions clearly, but Gangrel was right, they needed to be careful right now, "right... did you ever get word of what happened that day?".

Gangrel shook his head, "no, there was no survivors, only rumors of a loud roar and purple lights, no one else knows what happened there".

Aversa put away her dagger and narrowed her eyes, "a roar... some kind of beast?".

Gangrel shrugged and shook his head, "who knows? the fact of the matter is, that there was no bodies nor even a drop of blood anywhere, it was like nothing had ever happened in that place, its kinda creepy actually".

Aversa looked down and wondered just what was going on, it must be big if master Grima decided to actually help with the Exalt kidnapping, just what had happened that day, at the border between Ylisse and Plegia to make Grima, actually come out of his Dark Domain and help?.

Meanwhile, Gangrel continued on speaking, "the Ylisseans will be here soon- Chrom and the Emblem among them I'm sure, the bleeding heart prince would never put good senses before his sister!".

Aversa nodded, at the very least they could get a hold of the Fire Emblem this way, "... and when they arrive?".

Gangrel maliciously grinned as he laughed, "it will be a massacre worthy of their legendary father!".


Some days later, we all made it to a camp of sorts that Basilio and Flavia had their spies prepare ahead of time, now, we were close by Plegia's capital and getting ready to attack, though, we decided to wait until the spies told us it was time.

Today, we were all having a conversation on the secret base with Flavia and Basilio, when one of the spies came into the base running and immediately began to report, "the Exalt is to be executed at the castle in the morrow, I heard it from the King's own lips, sire".

Basilio nodded and then addressed everyone in the room, "this it it, then".

Chrom sighed and then spoke up, "looks like you were right Robin, they're going to make this whole thing into a show...".

Robin nodded, "yes, but tomorrow will be the true test...".

Both Robin and Chrom looked tense and very worried, I don't blame them, everyone would be in their position, regardless of how strong they've gotten and the fact that I'm on their side, don't change the worry they feel towards the situation.

Flavia saw this and decided to try and cheer them up, "chin up, there! show some confidence! it's your thinking that got us this far... and Rean's help and equipment of course, the situation is risky, but only as much is called for".

Chrom nodded and then took a breath, "we'll find the way to see it through, Rean, Robin! let's do this! this time tomorrow, we'll be swapping stories with Emm on Rean's domain!".

I smiled and nodded, "I'll make sure to cook us a big and delicious meal after we saved Emmeryn".

Tiona grinned and fist pumped, "we're so going to pummel everyone who gets in our way! we'll save Emmeryn! and then party all night!"

Tione nodded, "yup! then we'll make sure Emmeryn is never kidnapped like this again! right Rean?".

I nodded, "yes, Emmeryn and Ylisstol will be forever safe from now on".

Robin smiled and them nodded, "yeah, let's all party like crazy later, after saving Emmeryn!"

Everyone cheered and fist pumped, I smiled seeing that everyone really was ready to save Emmeryn, things will be different, there's no way I would let Emmeryn died and if I have to go all out to stop that from happening, then so be it, Plegia better get ready, because the Shepherds are coming over to get what they took away from us!.


And done!.

Another chapter ful of funny and fun stuff! Nowi and Gregor now have their Enchanted gear, Rean hanged out with his friends and even learned a few new things about them as well! he also began to train Nowi and Gregor so they can catch up to the Shepherds.

Which will come in handy soon, especially with us approaching Emmeryn's execution! the next two Chapters maybe three will full of surprises an action everyone! so get ready!.

But for now I'm done for the night I'm tired and a bit hungry, so I going to go look for something to eat and then go to sleep good night and see you all later!.
