Book 2-1.6 Next Steps

When Grace and Pere met up again, it was

exactly half a day after he had met Venersis, in other words, the moment

the three moons came up again.

Behind Grace were the fifty or so

Red Storm warriors who had dirt all over their bodies, as if they had

run nonstop, and an old man who he was very familiar with, was with them

as well.

It was the chief shaman of the tribe, Tuma Takaka.

Pere welcomed them happily. He felt like things would work out now.

“How did it go, sister-in-law?”

As Pere urgently asked, Grace bit her lips and shook her head.

“Librie

had already taken command of the warriors. When I arrived in the tribe,

the different chiefs were all surrounding Librie.”

Pere closed

his eyes tightly at Grace’s response. He thought positively, and thought

that Librie’s plot was revealed when he saw Grace and the warriors.

However, he was discouraged by her words.

“And?”

As Pere spoke with his eyes still closed, Grace shivered as if she didn’t even want to think about it, and spoke.

“As soon as Librie saw me, she shouted at the crowd to capture me. She said I was the traitor’s wife.”

“What?”

“Librie told them that my husband and Pere-nim killed father with poison...as well as Pere-nim’s mother Sena-nim as well……”

Pere’s eyes opened wide. His body faltered as if the heavens were crashing. It was his own will to fall to the ground.

Pere asked as if he couldn’t believe it.

“Father…...and mother……?”

Grace avoided Pere’s gaze and lightly nodded her head. Pere, who was having a hard time even talking, let out a cry.

“Ah!

Ahhhh! That bitch …...I curse my lips that called her mother at one

point. I will kill that bitch by ripping her to pieces.”

Pere

pounded his feet and flailed his arms as if he could not hold in his

anger. Grace just quietly waited until he calmed down before seeing

Yulian and running towards him. She started to caress his face gently.

“Yulian … what should we do about this? Ah, ah, what should we do?”

Grace was a wise and calm woman, but the things that happened in the last two days, the shock from it, was hard to handle.

She

lamented the fact that she didn’t run to the tribe in the beginning. To

lose the lead to that evil woman and become a rebel like this felt

frustrating and unfair.

She even wanted to curse the heavens for

causing something like this to happen when her husband was heading

towards his dream one step at a time.

At that moment, Pere finally stopped his flailing and after looking at Grace and Yulian, he approached Tuma Takaka and spoke.

“Tuma Takaka-nim, seeing you like this truly makes me happy to see you.”

Tuma

Takaka was the chief shaman in Pareia, and his powerful strength was

the best in the desert. The reason Pareia was able to get eleven oasis

and defend against the approaches of the other tribe and even the

Shuarei’s Venersis, was because of the strength of this old shaman and

his assistance to the three generations of the Provoke family.

“What…

just what happened? Do you know how surprised I was after hearing

Librie’s words? Afterwords, I saw Grace-nim hurrying over and sharing

her side of the story and I needed to confirm things with my own eyes.”

Tuma

Takaka wanted to hear the truth from a Provoke. He had been connected

with the family since the days of Baguna’s father, and when Baguna as

well as his three sons were born, they all received his protection from

opponent’s spells. For something like that to happen to these people……

“That

bitch, that ruthless bitch attempted to poison father and us brothers. I

happened to be doing a fasting prayer to Neo Latin-nim so they

failed…...but father and hyung-nim…...Tuma Takaka -nim, how could I pay

them back for this?”

Pere spilled his guts as if he was talking to

an elder in his own family. Baguna regularly relied on Tuma Takaka as

the Glow, but Yulian and his brothers saw him as a highly regarded elder

in the family.

Tuma Takaka felt another shock go through his body.

“Ah…...how could something like this …...how could something like this happen to Pareia?”

“Please take a look at hyung-nim’s poison first. I used the Shuarei’s shanana, but he has been poisoned for a while.”

Hearing

Pere’s words, Tuma Takaka wondered for a bit as to where he got the

Shuarei’s shanana from, but he hurried over to Yulian since that wasn’t

very important right now.

Grace was feeding Yulian Pareia’s shanana but handed him to Tuma Takaka as he approached.

“The effects of the poison……”

The

blue flower that was blooming on Yulian’s face was starting to get

darker. It meant that the effect of the poison was getting worse. Tumama

Takaka thought about the poisons that caused this type of symptom, but

even he, who had handled poison for a long time could not figure out

which poison it was.

“No matter how I look at it, it is definitely not a poison of the desert. If it was, I would know what it is.”

Everyone

grew more anxious hearing Tuma Takaka talk. They had full confidence

that Yulian would live because they had him with them, but hearing that

it was a poison even he didn’t know about, everyone’s faces quickly

changed.

“It is definitely that bastard!”

As Grace shouted, all of them looked towards her.

“If

it isn’t a poison of the desert, is there anyone other than that fat

pig from the Silence Empire? Librie isn’t bold enough to do something

like this on her own. I’m sure that Silence bastard was in the shadows.”

Everyone

became angry after hearing Grace’s words. Especially the Red Storm

warriors, they felt a burning desire to turn the pirma around and go

murder all of them.

Unlike the chiefs and other warriors who

couldn’t make up their minds after hearing Librie talk, the Red Storm

warriors were extremely loyal to Yulian that they knew something like

that would never happen and went against Librie’s orders to follow after

Grace. They also knew and understood Yulian’s passion more than anyone

else.

“Everybody, calm down. I will do what I can. Right now, it

is best to get far away from here. The chiefs and the lead warriors of

the large oasis might be hesitating and taking their time, but the

command of the ruler is law. I’m sure they will soon follow after us.”

As someone with a lot of experience, Tuma Takaka was good at figuring out what the priority was. He asked Pere and Grace.

“Where do you think we should go?”

Pere looked to Grace. There was only one place they could go right now.

“The

Rivolde Oasis is not far from here. I’m sure my father will help us.

Librie wouldn’t dare to track us down to Rivolde, so let’s all go there

and discuss.”

There was no way anyone else would have any other opinions.

The group started to head towards the Rivolde oasis.
