Chapter 346: The Fairy Race Part One
"Alicia are you sure this is the place?" Loeri asked as she looked around. She couldn't sense a thing and all she saw were trees.
"Should be... According to the map, there should be a hidden race here." Alicia said as she sat down on a rock looking at the map in her hand. Even her detection magic told her that there was a hidden race here. But for some reason no matter where she looked within the surrounding area she was not able to find where it was.
"There might be some kind of magic to confuse the senses in play." Blake suddenly said. He could also detect that a distorted area was nearby but he was not able to pinpoint it.
"If it is a type of magic that is able to distort the senses then someone very powerful must have casted it otherwise I would have found the location already. " Alicia frowned, she had a feeling that she probably shouldn't try to find this race. But she couldn't help but think that maybe just maybe this might be the fairy race.
"Whatever the case we will not get anywhere like this..."Starla said as she looked around. "Alicia, what about the heat detection magic that you have? Can that pickup the location for us?"
Alicia's eyes lit up. She had not thought of that! "That might just work!"
Alicia quickly waved her hand creating an eye in the sky that scanned the surroundings below. Sure enough, a large area was showing heat signatures that were moving around. "I got something. Let's see if this is the place. For now, I will have you all go into my space in case there is a barrier around the place. Blake has Celestial blood so he should be okay."
With Alicia's words, she sent everyone back into her space except for Blake. She found as they walked towards the hot spot their direction seemed to change quite a few times but thanks to her heat detection magic she was able to get back on the right track quickly without going in a loop. The two passed through a thin membrane barrier and found themselves in a large open meadow.
"Is it just me or is there a bunch of fairies flying around?" Alicia looked at the scene in front of her. Within this meadow were small little grass huts. They were bunched into many circle villages side by side. Some of the circles were bigger than the others and in the middle where the largest circle was, stood a grand domed structure made of grass. and flying around these grass huts were fairies.
"Not just you, I see them as well. Call Frey out maybe they will be willing to talk to us with her around because right now they seemed to be ignoring us completely. " Blake suggested.contemporary romance
Alicia nodded her head and waved her hand. Frey appeared in front of her causing all the fairies to turn their heads and bow towards Frey. "Mother, look, they are bowing to me! Does this mean I am their Queen!?"
"I am not sure honey… It may just be so. But before they completely ignored me. Don't go anywhere and stay with Mother." Alicia was a bit worried these fairies seemed to be acting odd. She was not sure if this was the habit of the fairies or if it was something else. She knew one thing for sure was that she would protect Frey no matter what.
"Mm… Frey will stay with Mother." Even Frey seemed to be a little weirded out by what was going on. Although she did like the fact that they bowed to her.
Right as Frey sat down on to Alicia's shoulder, an older looking female fairy came flying over and hovered in front of Alicia and Frey. "The Princess has been born, I see. After all these years we can finally meet our Princess."
"Umm excuse me but can you explain to me what's going on?" Alicia smiled and asked. But unfortunately, the older looking female fairy completely ignored Alicia and only looked at Frey. Feeling a bit put off Alicia turned and began walking away. "Since they do not want to answer questions we can only think they are up to no good. Let's go."
"Human! You dare walk away with our princess?" The older looking female fairy finally acknowledged Alicia's presence but only in a threatening way. Alicia could feel a slight hint of killing intent in the eyes of the older looking female fairy.
"I do not know about any princess, but my daughter is not someone you can speak to since you are not even willing to introduce yourself or act friendly towards your guest. I am normally very friendly but since you wish to exert killing intent towards me we have no reason to stay. I never thought other fairies would see themselves as all high and mighty." Alicia did not stop walking, she only lifted her hand and waved.
The older looking female fairy seemed to be angered beyond belief and quickly waved her hand sending an attack towards Alicia. This attack caused Alicia to frown but before she could take action Frey popped her head out and waved her own hand redirecting the attack back at the older looking female fairy. "You are not allowed to hurt my mother!" Frey little cheeks puffed out and her face turned red in anger. She couldn't believe people of her own race would attack her mother!
"Princess! It is just a dirty human and not worth your time as a higher life form!" The older female fairy shouted out after blocking her own attack.
"I am sorry to say but even if my daughter did not stop the attack it would not have even harmed me. Never mind just you alone even if your entire population attacked me right now they could do nothing to me. And I suggest you watch how you speak in front of my daughter. My family does not discriminate against other races. And as for me being human, you are wrong on that front." Alicia waved her hand slamming a surge of her combined power at the older looking female fairy, sending her flying back across the meadow uncontrollably.
After finally stopping herself before she hit the other side of the barrier the older female fairy looked at Alicia with fear in her eyes. "Ce-Ce-Celestial!" The older looking female fairy suddenly shouted out. But by the time she realized her mistake it was already too late Alicia, Frey, and Blake had already left. The older looking female fairy could only sit in the air staring blankly. The one person of their race they had waited for thousands of years to show up. Was chased away by their own race because of their own pride and hate for lower life forms. It was now that Alicia understood what the fairy race was like. Anyone weaker than them was not worth mentioning but those more powerful were there for them to worship.
"Frey from now on we will no longer look for fairies. Your race is still stuck in its old ways." Alicia said with a bit of sorrow in her voice. She wished things did not go as she thought they would but it seemed it was for naught.
As they made their way through the woods towards the next location a little voice could be heard trailing from behind. "Wait!!"
