78- Arlia's story
I am a Lamia.
Wait, what? Not waiting for to process the information, Arlia continued,
Ever since I was born, I have been raised in the dark forest and I have practically spent my whole life here. I always wondered how big the world was.
And one day, I heard that there were humans who lived outside of the forest and few stories related to them. As I had nothing to do here in the forest, I collected information related to places outside the dark forest. Gradually, my wish to explore the outside world increased so much that I could not control myself and went to my mother.
But when I asked my mother about this, she denied and warned that I should not step out of the dark forest. But I was not able to control my feelings and ran away from the ho. But I did not know the way out of the forest and so I was stuck, but I finally t you.
After that you know the story.
So, practically she was bored of her everyday life and she decided to explore the outside world, but since she does not know how to get of the forest, she was lost?
What the heck?
And that is not the main point. The main point is that she is a Lamia?
According to what I know, Lamias belong to the branch of serpent family and their upper body is that of a woman and their lower body is that of snake. They have a beautiful appearance and it is rumored that they seduce young n and after satisfying their sexual needs, they consu their flesh.
And the Lamias have been ntioned in the Greek mythologies, Japanese stories and different cultures too.
But the fact that Arlia says that she is a Lamia but she does not resemble a Lamia, is confusing.
So, instead of believing in rumors, I asked Arlia directly,
Arlia, what is a Lamia?
Hearing this, Arlia had a confused expression but she said,
Did you not here about Lamias who have half woman and half snake body?
I did, but I dont see any resemblance between you and a Lamia from any angle, right?
Oh, actually when I ran away from my ho, I used a dicine called (Zammarst leaf). It is a rare dicine that can change ones body structure. And with its help I turned into a human, because it would be dangerous to let others know that I am a Lamia, right? I have the basic common sense that I should not expose myself.
I nodded involuntarily but I was lost in thoughts and was processing the information that Arlia said.
But when then I rembered about the rumors about Lamia, which made my body cold. That is Lamias consu human flesh, especially a young ns flesh.
So, instinctively as a defense, I wanted to get up and get away from her but suddenly the movent caused pain and I groaned in pain.
Ahh...
Orochi, what happened to you. I told you right, please dont move. You are still injured.
Hearing Arlia, I cald down and realized that I am no position to move and even if the rumors are true, then I am in no position to defend myself.
So, after calming down, I asked Arlia,
Arlia, I dont rember anything other than the pain when my bones were broken and how did we get here?
Hearing this, Arlias face beca pale as a sheet of paper and her eyes showed that she was scared about rembering the events, but nonetheless she took a deep breath and started speaking,
After the burly monster (Burly guy) dragged by hair, I was extrely scared but suddenly a huge light flashed and I felt my vision being cut off. And when the light was gone..
.
.
Boom
The bright light slowly dimd and 4 figures were standing near the burly guy and Arlia.
All of the 4 figures were beautiful won. But the peculiar thing about them is that their upper body was that of a woman and their lower body was that of snake.
They were Lamias.
In the group of 4 Lamias, there was a woman who excluded a powerful aura and the other 3 Lamias aura was pale in comparison to her.
That won wore clothes which were extrely seducing and if one looked at her then any mans throat will go dry, with lust. But currently her face told that she was extrely angry.
While the other 3 Lamias, wore the clothes similar to a guard and they were each holding a weapon in their hands. And although they looked exceptionally beautiful but they were still not comparable to the other Lamia. And their expression also looked murderous.
Seeing these four figures, the burly guy's body trembled and the hand which was gripping Arlias hair was loosened. And Arlia who was struggling to get away from the burly guys grip, took the chance and tried to get away from the burly guy.
When she got out of his grip but she felt sothing was wrong, and she saw that the burly guy was looking at soone. So, she looked in the direction in which he was looking and she saw that 4 figures were standing.
But when Arlia saw one of the figures face, her body trembled and her eyes were filled with tears and she ran toward that figure while shouting,
MOTHER...
Arlia ran into the beautiful wons bosom and hugged her and started crying.
Seeing Arlia crying, that woman Lamias expression softened a little and she gently stroked Arlia hair. And then she spoke,
Arlia, it is alright now, your mother is here. Dont cry, I will not let anyone harm my Arlia.
