Cherreads

Chapter 119 - Yüz On Dokuz

Both old people withdrew their gazes from each other's eyes at the same time and turned them to Nafız, who had opened the doors of her heart to the end. The might of the ugly man and the attractive woman was more than enough to interrogate someone's soul, but they didn't want to go to this trouble for the two orcs stepping into the cave.

They now carried the desire to know the female orc, who attracted their interest due to the depth in her answers to the questions and her last words, closely. They set to work to satisfy their curiosity; after scanning the short time she lived as an orc in one go, it was time for the memories of her master Mora.

They would see the responsibilities loaded on her at a young age and the traumas created by losing her mother, the person she loved most, suddenly. While losing those around her one by one, they had witnessed all the details of the event that would bring her end.

A thick layer of sadness covered the beautiful woman's face in the red dress, but she still couldn't prevent the desire to go deeper. As a result of this, she would encounter places and landscapes she had never seen before. They were in Nafız's first life right now.

They decided to witness everything through her eyes from her birth. The two monsters' spirits seemed to improve a little with relatively happy childhood memories. They were wandering in her memories hidden in the depths of her memory, which even she didn't remember if asked; thanks to the time and place that seemed very interesting to them, they wouldn't understand how they came to that painful day.

Next was reliving the moment Nafız received the news of her mother and father's death. They had made the decision from the beginning; they would feel this life the female orc hid by reliving it with her emotions.

The old man felt as if his heart would break; he was tasting the pain of losing his loved one for the first time. He imagined the woman he loved, who had stood by his side for thousands of years, blending into nothingness in an instant; he felt like fainting at that moment. When he came to his senses, he saw that the beautiful woman in the red dress had stopped her flames and turned him into an ice statue with her attack without realizing anything.

"My love!"

The blue-robed toothless man shot from his place like lightning; there was no trace of his usual state looking as if he could barely stand at these moments.

He suddenly hugged his frozen loved one; since he had lost his mind, he couldn't think of anything else. Meanwhile, the beautiful woman was still wandering inside Nafız's memories. She was living one of the mentioned sad nights; she was in one of the moments when the young child begged god to see her mother and father in her dream.

A shiver wrapped her inside; the gloom of what she witnessed seemed to be striving to ensure her body froze. A desire to sleep was born in the beautiful woman; just as her eyelids were about to close slowly, a voice would echo in her mind. At the same time, she felt intoxicated with the feeling of hugging flowing into her soul like a warm melody.

"My love, please pull yourself together!"

The beautiful woman had goosebumps; was it possible not to recognize the owner of the voice? When she came out of young Nafız's soul and returned to reality, she would find herself trapped inside the ice and the old man with missing teeth shouting at the top of his lungs with teary eyes.

A sweet smile settled on her face right at that moment; she watched this scene for a few breaths. The state the man, who was panicking, fell into for her was very funny, but it contained a deep sadness inside.

The woman in the red dress slowly raised the temperature around her. While the ice melted slowly, the distance between the two people decreased. Finally, when all the ice melted, the unconsciously struggling ugly man and the woman with a sweet smile on her face embraced.

The moment the ugly man accidentally froze the woman he loved, the entire ceiling of the cave had also turned to ice. Although Nafız, who had lost herself, didn't feel it much, Alyon beside her had been shivering uncontrollably for a long time. This heart-warming scene would indirectly ensure the inside of the cave returned to its old state too.

The duo remaining this way for a while separated suddenly after a while. The flames coming out of the woman's body flared up and hurled the old and ugly man to the place where he stood before.

"Enough with this stickiness! Get your sinister face out of my sight!"

Although the woman shouting arrogantly inside her red dress looked repulsive when viewed from the outside, the passion in her voice gave away her true intention. The old man swinging his blue robe practically wasn't touching the ground these days; his flushed cheeks were all wrinkled due to his mouth stretching from ear to ear.

"As you say, my only one!"

The old man was in high spirits. He wasn't speaking; he was singing like a nightingale celebrating the arrival of spring.

"Don't let what just happened confuse your mind! If you hope there will be a repetition, you will wait for a long time!"

The beautiful woman's manners were very strange. Her eyes said one thing, her words another; the emotional fuse Nafız ignited was rapidly advancing towards the bomb waiting to explode inside her.

"Just be with me, that's enough! I am willing to wait for millions of years!"

The ugly old man would go down to the core of the earth in being humble. He was so happy that he wouldn't die if they shot him right now. While the environment slowly returned to its old state, Alyon was shaking his friend gently by the shoulder.

"Nafız, what is going on here? I don't understand anything!"

Indeed, what happened in a short time seemed like a lifetime to everyone. The Blood God, observing the state of the two old people, started speaking saying now is the exact time.

"I guess we successfully completed the test we had to pass. I assume we won't receive any punishment!"

The Blood God's aim was to reveal her intention without diluting the warm atmosphere formed by mentioning the reward with material concerns. Giving the image of falling into concern for her life, she pursued speeding things up.

"You cunning child! We understood your trouble; don't squirm in vain!"

When his words finished, the old man waved his hand rapidly. Suddenly, a hill made of ice marbles reaching Alyon's height appeared. The eyes of the two orcs shone; they hadn't thought they could receive so many rewards.

"You stingy geezer! Were you not ashamed at all while giving that tiny amount of things to the children?"

The woman, speaking rolling her eyes inside her red dress with skirts sweeping the floor, scolded the old man harshly. A breath later, another pile made of fire marbles appeared on the other side of the two orcs. This time the reward was substantial; fire marbles were almost twice as many as ice marbles.

Nafız's eyes shone; while surrounded by unique objects on two sides, her joy was boundless. Thinking just in case, she hastily stored the spheres in her transportation ring without even allowing a time as much as a blink of an eye to pass.

"Thank you very much for your generous rewards. Although I enjoyed the short time we spent very much, with your permission, we need to return to our tribe!"

After achieving their goal, the duo had no intention of staying in this place any longer. Nafız, active from the beginning, made her move to create the necessary ground.

"I was thinking the same, little one! Leave me alone with my only one now!"

While checking out the beautiful woman with flirtatious looks, the blue-robed old man spoke rolling a single eyebrow. While things warmed up between them, he didn't want to spread the business over time and cool it down again.

"Don't be sticky! Of course, you can leave now, but you need to receive one last gift. Step forward three paces, orc warrior!"

While Nafız advanced with slow steps after what was said, Alyon remaining behind intervened in panic.

"Sir, shall I come too?"

Upon this, the old man burst into loud laughter. After scanning the hulking orc for a while, he spoke showing his missing teeth.

"You don't come, Bear!"

Unlike Alyon who was bewildered in the face of the words he heard, the other two women in the environment were struggling to hold themselves back from laughing heartily.

While wandering in Nafız's mind, along with the movie containing the answers to the first two questions, they had the opportunity to see many other works too. The joke the ugly old man made with reference from here was at the right place and right time.

When the fuss ended, the old monsters waiting for a while to calm down then started making hand seals rapidly.

The Blood God was familiar with these kinds of techniques due to her master Mora, but this duo's speed could be accepted as a completely different level next to what she witnessed before. While watching them as if practically hypnotized, only catching the shadows of the signs, Kagutsuchi and Susanowo would shout at the same time.

"Go!"
