Chapter 113 Trouble Brews On All Sides. A Trap For The Snake Tribes.



Once in a while, low hums could be heard from the medusa mountain.

Although it was strange, no Medusa went in to interrupt. Expecially since Diana ran out and ordered them to keep watch.

It had been hours since then.

The prisoners were kept in a well fortified cage.

This was a very special cage.

It was a very Huge tree with a big hollow in it's center.

This was a special kind of Snake tree.

The prisoners were kept in it's hollow and it's snake roots formed the 'X' bars.

Aside this, they were also guards keeping wat h of the place from different angles.

Any slight attempt at moment from those within the cave was clearly seen.

Dan was within this cave.

In his embrace was the stature if Lady Frostbite.

She still remained a stature from the Naga's attack when they were coming this way.

Eros had asked him to keep careful watch of her.

It had been several hours since Eros went with the Medusa queen and her daughter.

To say that he was not worried would be a lie.

However, he had no way out if this place.

He did not even have cultivation.

All he could do was wait and trust in his grand father's ability to get them out of this mess.

After all, there was still Penny that needed saving.

Baron Bolos had taken her to be presented as a gift to the Viscount on his birthday.

Being late for that event would be a disaster.

Although Eros had told him not to worry, and that no harm would come to her, Dan could not just help it.

Before Eros took him in, Penny was all he had.

As he hugged Lady Frostbite's stature to his embrace, he could not help but feel lonely and sad.

If only he knew what his Grand father was up to, Dan would have definitely screamed in anger.

However, he didn't.

All he could do was wait in silence.

From time to time, he would take sneak peeks at the mountain, hoping that just when he looked, Eros would Walt's out of the Mountain with the confident smile on his face that he always carried.

He could not help but get a bit melancholy.

He could clearly see that he was not the only one in the cage that was worried about his freedom.

The other people that had been captured also had damped looks on their faces.

Some of them carried to the fate that they knew they would not be able to escape.

After all, it was already common news that Of recent, the Medusas have been taking people and not returning them.

No one was a fool.

It could only mean one thing and it was something no one wanted to think of.

After all, no one was ready for it.

Some sobbed lowly while some others prayed lowly to their gods.

Because of some special properties of this snake tree, even cultivators were as usefull as couch potatoes.

All they could do was wait in silence.

However they was one particular person that stood out like a sore thumb.

He dis not cry, but carried a straight look on his face.

It was alike all that was happening did nothing to faze him.

Dan recognized this look. It was the same look his grandfather had when everything was within his control.

It was a look of confidence.

This man was young and appeared to be in his early thirties.

His face was fully bearded and he his eyes were Seren.

Dan noticed that the man seemed to be busy with his fingers.

Continually, he stroked a ring on his finger.

Dan's attention had been drawn to the man several times because of that ring.

The ring was shaped like an Axe and once in a while, it would glow in a low dark red color.

Dan did not know what the man was planning, but any time the Medusa ls patrolled in front of the cave, he would hide his hands and when they were gone, he would whisper into it.

Just then, a loud his through a trumpet was heard.

It was just as loud as the hiss when the Medusa queen slithered out the cave except that this one was longer and had a different rhythm to it.

The moment it was heard, Dan noticed through the bars that the Medusas ran around the place.

They looked to be giving out orders.

Also, many of them rushed out of the caves of the mountain with bows, arrows and spears in hand.

No one needed to tell Dan before he knew that a battle was on it's way.

The Medusas rushed with their weapons into the forest.

Far off in the distance, Nagas were fast approaching.

A Medusa stepped forward with a spear in hand. She was ready for a fight.

The Medusas and the Nagas were old time sisters, but due to differences that their ancestors had with one another, both tribes broke apart and became enemies.

This was not the first time that they had been attacked in their mountain by the Nagas.

Counteractive measures had already been kept in place.

However, just when the Medusa commander wanted to release her spear at the invading enemy, her sharp eyes noticed something.

The nagas had a prisoner.

It was one of them.

It was none other than Diana.

eαglesnᴏνel "Hold still your weapons," Diana shouted as she was brought forward.

Hearing her voice, the Medusas did not attack.

After all, Diana was not just a Medusa but as the daughter of the Queen, she was quite influencial.

The escorting Nagas stopped before the Medusas.

Amanda slithered forward. She was the young. As young as Shade, but due to circumstances, she had become the queen of the Naga tribe.

"You idiots have welcomed a disaster into your home. I am here to plug it out."

The Medusas did not understand. However, Diana slithered forward.

"It is true. Just like the Nagas, our sacred Pool has died..."
