listentomymuse | Overlord and the pup

[Moroha tilts her head to the side a bit and but follows after him casually. She's curious...?]

We’ve found a place for the children.

[Leona speaks up once they’re in a different room. He leans against the wall, looking tired.]

Just a town over. It’s one of the safer places for them as it’ll be protected by the Sky Demons. We’ll be smuggling them out of the fishing village to get them there.

[Moroha blinks and gives a slow nod]

That’s great news there’s somewhere safe for them. I’m glad. We’ll get them there tonight then?

[She perks and smiles]

That’s the plan.

[He exhales slowly.]

So for now, just rest and conserve your energy. Don’t push yourself more than you’d have to. Depending how tonight goes, you’ll be defense if something goes awry.

[She nods!]

Leave it to me. I’ll keep everyone safe.

[She grins more. She gets some action!]

You should rest up too then.

Yeah, yeah.

[There’s a brief pause before he reaches out, hand cupping her cheek.

He looks thoughtful for a moment.]

…you should shower. I can smell the sea on you.

[Moroha blinks at the gentle gesture. She looks up at him, a little surprised]

……is that your nice way of saying I stink?

[She doesn’t seem offended though.]

I know it was all apart of the plan…but thanks for saving me and the kids.

I wouldn’t have let anything happen to you.

[A slight frown before he pulls his hand back.]

Stay within the inn for now and don’t let yourself be seen. With how things have gone, it’s going to attract attention.

[She stares up at him, cheeks warming up again and her heart beat picking up. ]

Y-yeah. I wasn’t planning on it.

[She nods to him. She lingers a bit longer before excusing herself to go wash up. Moroha passes by him]

Make sure you get some rest too…

[With that she to the bathroom]

…

[He watches her leave before sighing softly.

This…may be an issue.

Leona shakes his head and walks off to a different room.]

[after they rest and wait for the cover of night to smuggle the kids out, things seem to go rather smoothly. Moroha is on high alert but no one really seems to catch them bring the children to the sky demons.

Seth is grateful. He’s still tired cat]

[Fortunately, it’s a quick and smooth mission and the sky demons do offer them a place to stay for the night. The other demons are bringing the children in, helping them find rooms to settle in for the night.

Leona sighs and looks at his companions.]

Want to stay here for the night? We’ll leave at dawn.

That sound amazing…it’s a ways back to the inn or the palace…

[Seth yawns. Moroha nods too]

Roof over my head and a cozy bed, I got no problems.

[She smiles, giving a thumbs up]

Then let’s get some sleep.

[He yawns.]

I’m beat.

[Moroha nods, stretching her arms over her head]

Same here. We did a lot the last two days.

[She smiles to him and Seth. Though she feels something a bit strange that as he blinking and looking around a bit before waving goodnight and going to the room given to her. Lily follows after]

can we share a bed Leon? Not to do anything but to sleep. I think it’d be nice.

[He yawns]

[Leona blinks slowly, watching her. It has his brows furrowing and he nudges Mythril to watch them, too. Hmm…

He looks at Seth.]

That’s fine. I’m not against it.

[The fairy grumbles from Leona’s shoulder but flies after them.

Seth’s ears perk and he gives a lazy grin. It won’t be much of a cat cuddle pile but better than nothing. He nods and heads to Leona’s room]

[Leona follows after him, yawning.

His eyes flickers gold and he places a barrier around the sky demons’ village. He has no desire to continue playing around. He may have to speak to the others about hiding for a bit.]

[Once they're in the room, Seth does tug the lion to bed]

Overall things went as smooth as they could have...

[He cuddles up to Leona, wrapping his fluffy long tail around the lion and settling down]

Don’t jinx it now.

[Leona wraps his arm and tail around the cat, tugging him closer.]

We still have to make sure everyone remains safe here.

[Seth gives a low purr]

Fair enough... This place just felt safer than the inn is all.

[He wraps an arm around Leona as well, nuzzling his shoulder.]

[He purrs softly.]

I would hope it is.

[He nuzzles the top of his head.]

Go sleep, Seth.

[Seth smiles and settles in and closes his eyes. He nuzzles against Leona, purring though slowly....the purring does stop as he does drift off fairly quickly. The cat is tired after all.

Its the dead middle of the night a yelp comes from Moroha's room. Lily zooms to Leona's room as quick as her tiny wings will take her. She dives to the two felines, frantic.]

M-Moroha! A yellow portal opened up and a hand came you and grabbed her! Gold coins spilled out from it! Mythril was sleeping in her hair. He's gone too!

[She's buzzing, zipping this way and talking too fast.]

…of course it did.

[He sighs, sitting up.

His eyes flicker and he teleports himself to wherever the pup is. He really should’ve expected that pirate to pull a move.]

[Seth blinks slowly sitting up right.]

?!

[Leona can teleport but hes pushed a ways out....miles out from Moroha.

This is a different Demon's Lords domain. One that is pretty protective of her land. Any demi-god demons or demon lords are automatically pushed out by the demon lord's barrier on her land.

The pirate may have waited until he was miles and miles across the sea and in a new demon lord's country for this reason]
