Inheriting a Lost Bloodline, My First Task is to have heirs?!

Chapter 179: Chapter 179 - Family Drama (Part 2)

As we were about to leave the bunch which is sadly Makisig’s family in this lifetime, the elderly woman (Makisig said she was way over a 100 years old) screamed at the top of her lungs to stop the two of us from leaving. She ordered Makisig’s aunt and her husband (the grandfather) to do something about it. As for Makisig’s aunt, she ordered her three husbands to stop us. The three men immediately tried to gang on us with the old man who was ordered to move by his wife as well. They all tried to grab us from behind but is it really that easy to attack me and my people? Of course, it isn’t. As the four people touched the surface of the invisiblebarrier, they seemed to have had seizures and then they passed out one by one. Their bodies have spasms once in a while from the after effects of electrocution. I looked back at the attackers and then towards the two stunned women and smirked at their futile effort to stop us from leaving. Makisig looked at me in adoration and I continued to walk out of the door with him in tow. I held on to one of the pillars of the door frame and released some of my mana to weaken the structure of the whole house and the structures connected to it. I simply did a quick time skip spell to make the the house weaken and wither in a faster pace. It was a little revenge on my part so they wouldn’t enjoy the fruits of Makisig’s money for too long.

Once we are out of his grandparents’ property, we walked to the center of the sanctuary where the plaza was. I suddenly heard Makisig laugh out 1loud while holding his stomach as if he heard the funniest joke ever. He looked at me and grinned. He then whispered ”Thank you” and stole a kiss from my lips. I smilled back at him and told him to focus at finding father-in-law first. Makisig started asking the people around us to get any information as to where his father was. We would have asked his relatives about it but I am sure they would ask for compensation for anything information they have and most likely they will give us crappy ones. One elderly couple told us that they saw a man who started living in a small hut near the borders of the forest about a few months ago. They usually see him gathering wild vegetables and firewood from the outer parts of the forest everyday. They said that his hut was at the farthest area at the back of the whole sanctuary. We gave them a few pieces of fruit that we had brought with us as a sign of our thanks. Since their description coincides with the time that Makisig left and it was a man living alone, there was a high chance it was ”Dakila” so we decided to go to that area immediately.

It took us about 30 minutes to travel across the sanctuary towards the border of the forest at the back. Since we are not sure in which direction the hut was in, we decided to divide the search. It took us another 10 minutes before we found what seems to be a semblance of a hut underneath the shade of a large tree. It looked quite dilapidated though compared to what we were expecting. It look like a mound with patches of leaves, dried up branches and mud. It was more of a make-shift leaf tent than a hut to be honest. We ran to the area in front of the hut and shouted from the outside but no one answered. Makisig for some reason still ran and barged in. Inside the hut, we saw Dakila laying in a straw bed, shivering. He was a bit dirty (it must have been hard for him to shower regularly), he was really thin and he had a high fever. This hut doesn’t provide much warmth and coupled with malnutrition from eating just wild vegetables everyday, even a mystique would get sick.

I immediately gave a vial each of healing and revitalizing potion to Makisig and gave him instructions on how to feed it to his father. I also told him to start a fire since we would cook something warm and nutritious to get his father’s strength back and because it is already time for brunch. I ran out of the hut and listened in for a nearby water source which I immediately found. It was quite far at about half a kilometer from where the hut was. I took several pails worth of water and even caught some fresh fish while I’m at it then put it all in my storage space. I ran back and started preparing a meal immediately. I told Makisig that we would rent an unused house near the plaza for the night and then we will leave by tomorrow morning. He said that we have to make an offering of our goods to the leader of the sanctuary before we leave and I simply nodded. I also told him that we will trade our goods with useful items from this sanctuary to lighten our load. I asked him to take everything he owns and whatever he thinks he needed from this place since we will never come back here in the future. He understood what I meant and immediately went around the territory. I gave him an earring and a ring for protection. It will also serve as his personal storage space for the items he will purchase. I can’t have my pregnant lover carry heavy stuff. As for me, after the meal, I took the role of caring for my sickly father-in-law since I am the best one for the task as a soon-to-be doctor anyway.

Only after 30 minutes of leaving, I already felt a distress signal from the earring that Makisig is wearing. He is being targeted by someone so quickly once they saw him alone. I placed a sturdy protective barrier around my father-in-law’s hut and then teleported to somewhere near Makisig, ready to complete an ambush as needed. When I appeared near his location, I saw him being surrounded by guards. I looked around and saw a woman looking at Makisig as if he was a piece of meat to be eaten. I can see disgust and fear from Makisig’s eyes so I simply teleported right behind him and gave him a tight hug with my right hand resting on top of his womb. He was startled but when he felt my presence he immediately calmed down and held on to my hand. As for the woman with the guards, she screamed at the top of her lungs for the guards to get rid of me and bring Makisig with her back to the leader’s house. Makisig whispered to me that this was the aggressive woman his grandparents wanted him to marry for money and status. She looked like a hungry beast whose looking at my man like he was her prey. Should I dig her eyes out or should I just turn her to ash? It is not like their race will go extinct with her death. Hmpf!

I slowly released my mana and the surrounding guards started to hold on to their necks due to the sudden difficulty in breathing. The lecherous woman on the other hand, since she was my target, started coughing out blood almost immediately. She ended up kneeling on the ground clutching her chest and stomach due to the pain. She is fine since her recovery rate should be quick but I am slowly crushing her innards one by one so she must be in a lot of pain right now, not that I care. Makisig’s eyes widened at the sudden, stealthy and consecutive attacks that I have made. I haven’t enjoyed that much yet when I saw a man running towards our direction. He was taller than most people here and his foot steps are making the ground shake a bit. The first thing he did was scream and beg, ”Please do not kill my daughter! We will compensate you with anything you want!” It was quite smart of him. He knew when to fight and when to back down. I can hear him gasping as he entered the domain of my mana since he must have started feeling the suffocation due to the mana pressure but he still bravely looked at me with pleading eyes. I released my mana pressure only after a few seconds. The sanctuary leader immediately introduced himself and asked for his daughter’s mistakes. As for me, I told him that we will actually be sending in offerings to the leader and then leave quietly but his daughter just had to attack us. He apologized again and then smacked his daughter in the head heavily. The daughter fell face first on to the ground which looked funny. The guards were laying on the ground still heaving. He rejected the offerings since he said that his daughter offended me and Makisig so they aren’t worthy of such gifts. I saw pain in his eyes as he said those words in front of all the bystanders.

I still insisted on giving our offerings but I decreased it by 1/3 of its original amount and told him that we will no longer visit his house since he has received the offering already. We just gave him a heads up that I, Makisig and Dakila will be leaving the territory by tomorrow. He agreed to it easily and then went on his way without delay. Makisig the whispered, ”That man is cunning. He may have agreed with us right now but that is because we are in public and he wants to save his face. He will definitely not let us go out of this sanctuaty that easily.” I scoffed and replied, ”He thinks that the likes of him can stop us?”

Our talks while going through each store in the sanctuary were about people that he wanted to bring with him. He gave me a few names and their specialties. I must admit that those people are quite talented and useful in building a new settlement or even earning money in business. He said that they were all unmarried men the last time he checked but he isn’t sure right now. I looked at him with a raised eyebrow and then he giggled, ”I was blessed to have met you. I don’t mind sharing this blessing to others that would appreciate it and are worthy of it. We can even serve you together if you want to.” He’s trying to get me to take in more men from his race, isn’t he? He’s the total opposite of my human husbands when it comes to these kinds of things!
