Chapter 1066: A Clue from Georgia
"Pandas!"
I already got the permission to bring the pandas here. The Monsters Village. And to be safe, I made sure that the pandas are protected with fences. It’s because they have no sense of direction at all.
Seriously, who in the right mind would move to a snowy mountain when they’re out of bamboos? Pandas!
They got lost in the mountain and started eating snow rabbits. But they were fine with eating animals.
The weird thing is how they can avoid dangerous monsters on the way. And the Pink Panda said that they were just lucky.
Also, it’s their innate ability to look cute. That will make other monsters, animals, and humans distracted by their cuteness. Or even charmed. So when they get close, the pandas will cut them with their sharp claws.
That’s actually what they tried to do to me at first. But they failed because I’m just too strong. Then they realized that I hold no hostility toward them.
And now, the pandas are in a field near the village surrounded with fences with a lot of bamboos growing in it. I told the elves to make sure that the pandas will never be out of bamboos. And I also told the Pink Panda that if they ever run out of bamboos, they can ask the elves to grow some more.
And I told them that the elves are responsible in raising their delicious bamboos. And ever since, I see the pandas started worshipping the elves.
And the elves also creatures that love cute things. So they like the pandas and willing to take care of them. It wasn’t hard for the pandas to be here.
And after I prepared everything, I brought everyone here. Including children. And everyone is so happy that they can see pandas.
"This is the leader. Pink Panda," I said as I pointed at the small panda sitting on my head.
"Hey. I don’t have a name and I won’t bother remembering it. So just call me Pink Panda like he did," Pink Panda said.
"What a deep voice! Now it’s less cute than before," Albert said.
"Now I see why Maya is excited. So, which one is Maya’s familiar? It’s not the Pink Panda, right?" Fabio asked.
"She said that she’s going to pick the cutest one. She hasn’t made any contract yet. You can see her over there looking at every pandas there," I pointed at Maya who is looking at a panda chewing on a bamboo.
The children are happily playing with the pandas as well. They are touching and hugging the creature that loves hug.
"Is it safe for children?" Albert asked. Worried when he saw Alan and Lana playing with some pandas.
"It’s safe. They are creatures that hate fighting even though they can. And now I promised their safety, they are willing to have their claws shaved. Except for Pink Panda. So be careful with him. Other than me, no one have stronger skin that can endure his claws. Even master level mage will be hurt. But other pandas are fine. They not only won’t harm you, they also won’t put strength on their hug. Letting other people hug them however they want. They will just hug with enough strength to not fall off," I explained.
Then Albert grabbed a panda and lifted it up. The panda seems happy with it.
Even old man Henry and Harold is playing with pandas. Cute is justice!
As for Lynn, she’s already buried somewhere by the pandas. Even Claudia, her own aide, is playing with one and ignored her own Empress.
"What about Georgia? Is she okay?" Fabio asked.
"She can reveal eight wings now. As for her memory, I haven’t checked it yet. How about you ask Maya to reveal Georgia’s eight wings and see if she can speak? If she can, then we might learn something new about the cult," I said.
"Okay. Let’s wait until she finds a panda she likes most," Fabio said.
The pandas are strong as well. They have strong body powerful enough to endure a simple attack from the werewolves. But if the werewolves put more strength, the pandas will be hurt.
So, even monster children are playing with the pandas as well. And they’re playing by throwing a panda at each other to the girls’ horror.
Though the pandas who were thrown actually enjoyed it. They even ran back to the thrower as if they’re asking to be thrown again.
"Seems fun. Will you throw me?" Pink Panda asked.
I grabbed him from my head and threw him vertically to the sky so high. With his strength, even if he falls from that height, he should still be able to endure it. And he was fine indeed before he casually climbed my body and rested on top of my head again.
"...Everything I knew about pandas is now useless," Albert said.
"Just so you know, they are still monsters. So you can’t compare them with normal pandas," I said.
Though I don’t know if normal panda will act the same as these monster pandas or not. If they are, no wonder they are on the verge of extinction.
Maya then picked one panda as her familiar. It’s the smallest one and not a child panda. She’s an adult panda. But her growth somehow not as good as the others.
"I pick this one! She’s the cutest!" Maya said.
"Have you made a contract with her?" I asked.
"Yes I have! Hmm? Oh! She’s talking to me using telepathy!"
I know that even monsters who can’t speak, when they became a familiar, they can still talk with their master. But only using telepathy. But it seems it depends on the monster’s condition as well. Because she can’t use telepathy with Georgia.
Wait, I think I can only use telepathy when I’m advanced level at least. She did it while she’s an intermediate level? I guess she’s better than me. And probably will be able to reach the next level quickly as well.
"Maya, don’t bring her home yet. Let her stay here for a while to recover their health. All the pandas here are malnourished. They need to gain some weight to be healthy again," I said. This time, as a doctor.
"What a shame. But it won’t be long, right? Then it’s fine. Their health is important," Maya said.
"Once I think that you can nurse it on your own, you can bring that one home. So it won’t be long," I said.
After that, I told Maya to call Georgia to reveal her wings. And when we asked her something, she didn’t say anything. But I saw some reaction when she was asked some question related to the people who experimented on her.
"Master, should I tell her to reveal all her twelve wings?" Maya asked me.
I looked at Albert and the others. They knew what will happen when Georgia revealed all her twelve wings. And they let me decide.
"Do it. Once we see her full of pain, tell her to stop. Graham, just stay there and don’t do anything. Kayla, keep using healing magic on her at all time. Your strongest healing magic," I said.
Obviously, we didn’t do it where the pandas were. There are kids there. So we do it far from there.
And soon, Georgia revealed all her wings. And she felt pain in her head. But it was not as painful as before when Maya was just a beginner level summoner. Also, maybe Kayla’s healing is helpful.
Graham wanted to stop us. But he knows how important this is so he just stood there while clenching his fist.
"Georgia, tell me everything you can tell about the people who captured you!" Maya asked Georgia. If it’s her, she’s more likely to get Georgia to talk.
Enduring the pain in her head, she tried to talk.
"Coast city... Varadis... pyramid..."
And then, she was not able to hold the pain any longer even with Kayla’s healing. So I told Maya to stop her.
Her wings disappeared and she fell into Graham’s embrace. And Graham is looking at me.
As for me, I’m looking at old man Henry. He should know something about what Georgia said.
"So, a coast city in Varadis and it’s most likely in a pyramid. I’ve heard about pyramids before. We indeed have some pyramids in our country. Though most of them were destroyed by age. I don’t think there’s still one standing in my country. But if the cult is protecting it, then it’s possible that they have one secretly built in my country," old man Henry said.
"Then my next mission is to scout the coast of Varadis. Maybe it’s even in an island in the ocean facing Varadis," I said.
"Just in case, we will get some people to investigate the coast in Consenza near Varadis’ territory," Claudia said.
"And we will take care the ones near Arturo," Toni said.
"I will also get some people to investigate. It’s just a bit of information, but it could be really helpful. Thank you Ms. Archangel," old man Henry said.
In Varadis, huh? A pyramid? Then the shape is obvious from the outside. But if that pyramid is inside a building, then we might not know it.
At least we know where to start. We will investigate as soon as possible.
