38 We’ll see about that

(Author thingy)

I feel like I do too many of these but I want to keep everyone updated so tell me if you'd rather me just write these somewhere else.

Anyways for now I'm again sorry for the infrequent uploads there are a bunch of test coming up next week but after that, I have vacation so I plan on uploading more then if everything is going well

A couple of people I know have been telling me they don't feel mentally stable for different reasons. And this came as a shock to me as they always seemed so happy so I just want to tell you that if you feel doubtful of yourself please talk with someone about it if need be talk with a close friend or family.

Just know that I care about you and a bunch of other people do as well. you're my comrade so you better stay healthy or I'll kill you.

As always hope you are doing well.

(Valery POV)

Oh damn it Grace is probably telling the truth.

Grace's main power is her eyes she can see a whole bunch of stuff with them for example she can see the basic stuff like infrared or UV but also more convoluted stuff people's intentions.

She never tells what all she can see with those eyes of hers which is a smart move on her part but I still have some suspicions. She always seems to know when someone is lying I'm not completely sure what gives it away I did some test with different illusionary techniques but most times she still seemed to notice and a few times she didn't but I'm unsure if she didn't notice on purpose to set me on a false lead or not. She also seems to be able to see people's true nature like what kind of being you are even if you don't know it your self or what kind of thing you have the most talent for she also seems to be able to pick up on the intentions people have behind their words and actions this makes her a great diplomat. I also have a sneaking suspicion she's able to see at least a little bit ahead into the future but really this just is a suspicion I have and I have no real reason to believe she is able to do that at her than the fact she's able to see a lot of things with those eyes so why not the future.

If I lock her out and mom gets her she will most definitely tell mom who has Sam even if she had an incentive not to tell her mom will get the info out of her.

But I and I think Mia as well can roughly feel his presence in the distance so I already have a suspicion about who has him so we don't need Grace to find him but the question is can I get to Sam fight whoever has him and take him to my country before mom can interfere if she knows who took Sam.

And the answer to that question is a resounding no.

Mom would be able to find Sam on her own if it weren't for the fact she was so mad at us. If grace tells her who stole sam she is going to be there within seconds and going on a rampage. I do not want to be anywhere near her when that happens.

I made my summoned imp slow down enough with closing the door that it should be just possible for grace to get in but mom to stay out.

We need to completely close the doors before mom gets here if she even gets one finger between the door she'll have it a lot easier forcing the doors open.

Mia meanwhile was setting up the teleporter to get us to where we need to be it was going to take a little bit of time but even that is too much to ask for when mom is after you. I got a better look at mom who was in the distance rushing this way. She had morphed into a human golden dragon hybrid she still had a humanoid form but she was moving on all fours her purple hair has golden strands now. Her brown-tinted skin now has a bunch of golden tattoos all over her body and she has grown golden scales and claws.

It looked quite majestic but still something I'd rather admire from a very long distance.

My heart was pounding Grace was nearly through the door but mom was closing in grace was a couple of steps away from the doors mom was getting closer to her.

Grace made it to the doors the gap in between the doors was getting smaller and smaller she had to squeeze in by moving sideways to get through and she seemed to be home free but her right arm got stuck between the doors.

I heard the sounds of mother's claws hitting the cobbled floor so in a quick moment of desperation I rushed over to her and cut off her arm then pulled her away from the door as it shut completely.

I immediately held the flat side of a sword I found lying around against the wound and heated it up with a technique so that I could close the wound later I'll bring her to a healer to get her arm back. I don't know any healing magic or techniques so I could only stop her from bleeding too much and dying from blood loss.

There was pounding and frustrated roars on the other side of the door even some dents formed.

We weren't safe here so I picked up grace put her left arm around my neck and brought her over to where Mia was working on the teleporter.

I did think about killing grace so she wouldn't be able to tell mom anything and she wouldn't be a burden to us. But having her indebted to me can be very useful she has a lot of information because of her eyes this could potentially be very useful to me.

"Mia are you nearly fucking done I'm not sure if the door will hold up to mom's strength we need to get out of here now," I told Mia".

"Hey I know we have little time but don't hurry me I need to concentrate to make sure the location we teleport to won't be remembered by the teleporter." Mia snapped back at me.

So I sat there for about 30 seconds in silence and I can confidently tell you that was the longest goddamn 30 seconds in my life. Mom had been constantly banging on the door more dents formed and the door started making creaking noises that door is about to fly off its hinges.

"Done," Mia said we all stepped in the teleporter, and through the portal, I helped grace through and not a moment too soon because behind me there was a loud bang and one of the doors flew across the room into a wall and mom stepped through the doorway.

I looked at her for just a second I saw the rage in her eyes and I stepped through the portal the portal was only made for 3 people to go through so it closed after I went through.
