步步惊心丽百度云

A flash of golden light and Astraea was sent careening off of me but it wasn't for long as soon after she was sent flying Astraea righted herself in the air, pivoting her feet in such a way that when she landed she could instantly rush straight at Tama. A blur was all I saw as Astraea made her way towards Tama, various explosions and dust clouds echoing forth from the ground as the clanging of metal was heard.

"What" I involuntarily let out, watching as Astraea pulled out a bow from nowhere, green dust signifying its arrival.

Several arrows were shot out in the time it took me to process that Astraea even had a bow but it was not enough to overwhelm Tama. The arrows that had been sent at Tama flickered for a moment before being taken out of existence.

"Tch" Astraea clicked her tongue, more and more arrows appeared, however they were not instantly dispelled like the earlier ones. In fact they seemed to have more substance to them, as if Tama could not deny their existence.

Though that didn't mean that Tama was defenseless, with a flash of golden light a weapon appeared in Tama's hand, or more accurately several, as daggers filled her hands only to be thrown at the approaching tide of arrows.

More and more daggers and arrows were sent at each other and although it seemed that they were equal it was clear that Tama was going to win this battle.

However, by the narrowed eyes of Astraea it seemed as if she was not going to give up, even seeing how much she was being pushed back.

Another flash of golden light and Astraea was teleported to my side where hundreds of daggers were poised to pierce me.

A panicked expression appeared on her face as she hurried to block them, though while she was attempting that with hundreds of arrows, more daggers appeared at her back slamming into her.

A growl escaped her mouth as she was sent sprawling to the ground, another flash of golden light and Tama was before Astraea, a dagger held to her neck.

"That's enough" I say to Tama, who by now was drawing a bit of blood from Astraea's neck. Sighing, Tama backed off and I approached Astraea.

Dusting the dirt that had stained my clothes off, I sat up, my feet carrying me towards Astraea. I offered my hand, all the while staring into her eyes impassively.

Gray eyes met golden ones as my stare was met by hers. The stare was held for a while, Astraea seeming to not give up, but that was not for long as soon after the defiant look in her eyes was gone, her hand reaching out to grab mine.

With a pull of my arm I pulled Astraea to her feet, my other hand reaching to her neck as I healed it and any other damage that she had sustained during her scuffle with Tama.

A blush was upon her face immediately after my hand had reached her neck, the pale skin being lit up by red, however before I could say anything or even give her a look soft footsteps interrupted me bringing my, Tama, and Astrae's attention towards the forest.

Soon enough the footsteps grew closer and I activated my shared soul sight. A sigh of relief that I did not know I held was released as Rhea and Delta returned from their expedition.

When they appeared in the clearing that we were using for training was Rhea, littered in wounds and behind her was Delta, who seemed as if she was not bothered by the state that Rhea was in.

I looked over the wounds, my feet dragging me closer to them all the while. At a closer look none of them were fatal or even serious but there were still lots of wounds. I ignored how Astraea seemed to follow me like a lost kitten and grew closer to Rhea.

Once I had reached her my hand flew to her wounds, green aether covering them as wounded skin was replaced with pink, then healthy skin. Once I was done with healing her I looked up only to notice the slight blush on Rhea's face that had appeared at my touch.

I had to look again and almost missed it because of that slight moment as immediately after my hand had retreated from her body she had retreated to the back of Delta, hiding behind her.

It was only then that my eyes widened in understanding, it was all clear now, why Aoif had ownership of 1/5 of the realm. Looking up to Delta it was most likely that she had assaulted the base herself and destroyed the leader, but if the leader had 1/5 of the ownership of the realm then wouldn't that also mean that those elves did too?

If they did then I would have to rethink my plans, before I had wanted to take them down myself, with Aoif but now that I know this information would it truly be right to hesitate on using all of the resources at hand.

In a matter of days I could have the whole realm under control but…

growl

Before I could finish my thoughts my stomach growled out, hunger that I didn't know I had announcing itself. It was only then that I bothered to look at the sky, the once bright afternoon sun being replaced by the moon signifying the end of the day.

I looked over and saw how Tama's ears perked up and how her tail started to swing, I couldn't help but shake my head.

'She really likes to cook for me doesn't she?' I thought to myself, watching as Tama departed from where she stood and speed walked for the house where she could cook me a meal.

Me, however, I just sat down next to the tree, my body exhausted. Even with all the healing my mind was still tired.

I only half noticed how Astraea had sneakily burrowed herself into my lap, being careful not to disturb me.
