"Well shit."
[Accept your karma my lord. As sworn brothers you are obligated to assist. If you wish to be a figure of moral decency you cannot abandon them.]
'Exa, I am hurt. You make it sound like all I wanted to do was just use these bastards as cannon fodder.'
[…My lord, please stop being so shaless…]
Unable to keep a straight face, I ended up chuckling.
{You find sothing amusing, Limitless? You have yet to answer. As Roach's sworn brother, will you help us?}
Interesting. Despite only just learning of the concept a while ago, this Lizardkin Dragon already understood my words. These monsters really were just mindless beasts.
'My Kindred. Once you finish up, can you please co here? I need you all.'
'Goodness, you really are a slave driver! I just killed three vampires and yet you still are ordering around? Fufu you really cannot do anything without can you? But I digress, Exa is keeping apprised of the situation Dearest. Do as you will.'
'I am covering you right now Husband. Should they decide to attack, I will hit them with {Disarm} rounds. I will warn you if I see them trying to do anything.'
'Beloved the clean-up of the vampire army is close to ending. Leo and Nyda have rewinded and once again have joined the battle. D and Pixie are similarly performing admirably. The mont the last ghoul falls, I will co to you.'
'I see, thank you all. Then I will discuss with the Lizardkin what to do next.'
It was comforting that my girls were doing their best. Jas decided to prioritize my safety over everything else. On the other hand, Lilly and Liv were executing my orders to the best of their abilities.
Turning back to the monster, I continued where we left off, "Hmm. Before I answer do any of you have a na?"
{We do not. Much like Roach, we have no need of such things. If you deem that one is needed to converse, then you may give one.}
The behemoth in front of talked with the majesty of a queen. Unlike Roach, she kind of reminded of Lilly. A wise leader that saw the big picture.
"Okay. Then from today on you are Juno. Nas are sothing required for Reapers. Thus, if you wish to ally with us. Such things are required." Discover exclusive content at My Virtual Library Empire
{I understand. Juno…Juno… that is my na… then from today on this shall be my na. Thank you for teaching . We have not fought alongside Warmbloods before thus we are wholly ignorant.}
It was comical for such a large beast to talk like this. I wonder how much of this was [Arican English] or if Juno was naturally more respectful than Roach.
"Okay. When we et soone for the first ti, we greet them. Pleased to et you Juno, I am Limitless, looking forward to working with you."
{Pleased to et you Limitless, I am Juno. Looking forward to working with you.}
"Good. Okay before we continue there are a couple of things I want to know."
{Ask.}
"Why did you and your army co here. I know that they stole your eggs, but from what I can see, if we didn't arrive, you and your brood would have been slaughtered. Vampires and ghouls are tainted, which ans you cannot kill them no matter how many tis you rip them apart."
{I am aware. I know that. But my child. I cannot allow them to harm my child. He is all I have left.}
So even among the monsters there were such bonds huh? I guess, it was expected after all even the animals know instinctively how to care for their young.
"Then you all ca here intending to die? Wouldn't Roach be sad if you all died?"
{He might not think so. I am after all one of his many mates. But I know how much hate he has for the pale ones. I just wanted to help. Roach is trying so hard. I know I am being foolish.
But what choice do I have?}
I knew too little about the sex lives of Lizardkin to comnt. I noticed that Juno seed to like Roach quite a bit. But it would be more appropriate to focus on the task at hand.
"My forces and I will be attacking the duke. We intend to go down two more floors. What about you, Juno? Do you know where your eggs were taken?"
{I can sense where my eggs are. They are deeper. I am being foolish Limitless. But what else would you have do?}
"You could just leave this egg and make a new one. So long as you are alive you can make more can't you?" I proposed.
{I do not want to.}
"Huh?"
{My child ans more to than my life. I would rather die.}
'Well, would you look at that. I know there are animal that are willing to do for their young, but I was rare to see one in the wild.'
'Indeed, Beloved. Who knew that such a being existed among the monsters.'
'Hmph. She is an even better mother than the one I had! How admirable. Dearest, I wish to reunite her with her child.'
'A mother's love is sothing we will all soon experience. Husband. We are doing this right?'
My battle harem's comnts aside, there was inherent power in understanding the circumstances of another. It was why people relate to protagonists in ani and manga. You could not help root for a protagonist once you know what he had to go through and what he intends to accomplish.
"Very well. Then Hellsend and I will help you. But do the rest of your sisters feel the sa way?"
The other four then stomped their titanic legs and roared. They began crossing their scythes as if they were sharpening them.
{The ones who ca with are those who once already had their eggs stolen or those that wish to get them back.}
"Why does the vampires even want your eggs to begin with?"
{We do not know. But they regularly steal what is ours. Even if our children hatch, we live in constant fear of their whims. My sisters and I have had enough. What use is living for so long under the tornt of such fiends? Even if it is useless, I refuse to bow down to them any longer.}
"It's fucker. The word you want to say is fucker."
{Fucker?}
"Yes, if there is soone you hate, you call them a fucker."
{I understand. I refuse to follow these fuckers any longer. I will trample these fuckers or die trying!}
Juno's angry bellows followed her fierce declarations. Along with her the Lizardkin dragons similarly stomped their massive hoofs. My senses picked up the remaining Lizardkin Dragons converge on my position.
Including the five in front of , it seed like Pixie brought back seven others. Along with the ones that survived there were nineteen of these monstrous beasts. While they were quite intimidating, hearing a monster the side of small mountain cursing in English was funny as hell.
As I was trying to hold in my laughter, I noticed the battlefield was already silent. Three figures suddenly ca to my side with {Blink}. Naturally it was Lilly, Liv, and Jasmine. The cleanup must have already completed.
"Anyway, Juno before I help you there is sothing I wish to know. I personally fought with Roach. He had the ability to server {Fates}. Is that an ability that all Lizardkin Dragons have?"
{I do not know what {Fates} is. Also, what is Lizardkin Dragons?}
"Hmm…Never mind then."
It seed that in depth exchange of culture cannot be done at the mont. As none of my party was tired to having {Rewind}, it would be a good idea to proceed. I was also worried about what would happen to George's group.
