Chapter 186 - Weird Tendecies
"Escaping like a little naughty boy, aren't you a Little bit old for this, Alfonso?"
"…Sorry"
"Its that all you got to say? Did you really think that no one will have an eye on you?"
"…"
Its been fifteen minutes since Demeter suggest (force) Alfonso to kneel on his knees and heard her 'speech'
Do you remember how it feels like to be caught watching TV by your mother when you were supposed to be doing your homework?
This is exactly how Alfonso feels right now.
"I-I am not a little kid you now!" Said Alfonso.
"Then stop acting like one! You are too old to be doing whatever you want!" Said Demeter.
Alfonso was speechless once again.
While both mother and so- *Ahem* Demeter and Alfonso were discussing, Anastasia and Hans were watching from the sides.
"To tame that Alfonso Lockheart, she must be quiet the character, don't you think, young lady?" Murmured Hans.
"Indeed, its better if we stay away from her… anyway, Hans, didn't you notice when she mount on your horse?" Said Anastasia.
"Not in the slightest, I don't know how it happened either!"
Demeter scolded Alfonso for five more minutes before finally stopping.
"Anyway, lets get going" Said Demeter while standing up.
"Eh? We aren't going back?" Asked Alfonso.
"What's the point? You WILL eventually try this again, since that's the case, I might as well go with you" Said Demeter.
She mounted on Anastasia's horse and waited for Alfonso to mount on Hans's horse, obviously, they changed partners, as for the reason? It's pretty obvious right?
That's why, Alfonso didn't say anything and mounted on, however, when he turned around, he saw a young lady with tears in her eyes looking at him.
She didn't talk, however, her eyes told the whole story.
"I DON'T WANNA HER BEHIND ME, HELP ME!"
"I am sorry, but, you will have to take this bullet for the team" Said Alfonso with his eyes.
Hans also turned around and so the begging look on Anastasia's face, he also gave his answer via his eyes.
"I will make sure that you are remembered as a heroine, young lady!"
Then, Hans, with a swift and yet dramatic move of his hand, make the horse move.
When Anastasia saw the horse leaving her at her own luck, she couldn't contain herself.
"HELP ME! I don't want to ride with this monst-"
Before she finished her answer, Anastasia taped her mouth with both hands.
"What were you saying~?" Asked a voice behind her.
"NOTHING! I SWEAR ON MY LIFE!" Answered quickly Anastasia.
"Hmm~ then, lets get going~" Said Demeter.
"Sure, sure, whatever you say ma'am! " Said Anastasia.
They went on their way towards the mining cave and to find out what happened to Cerberus Team.
In midway though, a question pondered in Alfonso's head.
"Demeter" Asked Alfonso.
"What is it~?"
"How did you find out that I was escaping?"
"Artemis had lock you on with her Mark on the hunter, so, she told and I followed you~" Said Demeter.
"And how come she didn't come?" Asked Alfonso.
"Hehe, well I promised her to- oh" Demeter suddenly remembered something.
"What is it?" Asked Alfonso.
"Upsi~" Said Demeter.

[Back in Wasteland Valley]
"Master, what are you doing here?" Asked Io.
"…" Artemis was at the front door of the manor with an annoyed expression.
"Master?" Asked Io.
"She…pro…that…da… bit" Artemis murmured something, however, she was pressing her teeth so hard that it was barely understandable.
"What did you say, master?" Asked Io.
After some seconds, Artemis finally exploded.
"SHE PROMISED ME THAT SHE WILL BRING HIM BACK, HOWEVER, IT'S ALREADY BEEN FIVE GOD DAMNIT HOURS!" Shouted Artemis with flames on her eyes.
"Oh-oh" Io felt the danger and she tried to retread slowly.
"DEMETER! YOU DAMN BITCH!, I WONT FORGET THIS!" Shouted Artemis.
"…" io didn't make a notice and turned around as slowly as possible.
"I must escape!" This was the only thought on Io at the moment.
However, just as she was camouflaging in the darkness, a hand touched her shoulder.
"IO, PREPARE FOR HELL TRAINING!" Shouted Artemis.
"Fuck me"
Though the poor Io in tears.
.....................…
The previous lord of Wasteland Valley had closed the mine because of the invasion of creatures from the Jubila forest, he asked for help from Dragon city, however, due to the fact that they had lost their title as a 'Town', they didn't had the right. So, he didn't have another option and closed the mining and prohibit anyone for walking to close. That's the story that was told to Alfonso when he first came here, however, this story had too much holes.
"First of all, what mineral could we possible have? Since I was a child, I had the best of education and new a bit of everything, I know what kind of goods every town in Leitol had, Wasteland Valley has NONE" Though Alfonso.
Since he became the lord of Wasteland Valley, he had been pondering about that.
"However, the question is… what creatures were there? Creatures like Cerberus maybe? Or something even more bizarre?" These questions were on Alfonso's mind all the way towards the mining.
"White fang" Said Alfonso.
"Hmm? What is it?" Asked White fang.
"You have experienced a lot more than me; do you have any idea what kind of creatures would invade a mine?"
"A mine? Mmm… well, in the Jubila forest there are a lot of weird creatures, especially in the inner core, as far as I know, a mine isn't exactly a place to live in, the number of creatures who would like to live in a mine are zero" Said White fang.
"I see… then, let me rephrase the question, what creatures would represent a problem for you, wolves?… creatures that like dark places" Asked Alfonso.
"A creatures that like dark places and a problem for us? Well, I can think of two fellows, the Syngurps and the Jurios; the Syngurps are creatures that like dark places and can fly, so, we have a natura disadvantage, however, they are usually calm creatures so we don't collide, on the other hand, the Jurios, those nasty fellows, are creatures that have this weird natural ability of erasing their trace when they stay in the dark, so, they are natural night hunters, however, the real problem is that they have a really hard sense of belonging, when someone attacks their nest, they will destroy the person even at the cost of their lives"
