The Two Empresses
Breakdowns

"Finally it's done too" Phillip said. Kezia slid into Max's arms and rubbed his head in his arms. "Saciel, are you okay? You look pale."

"Eh? Ah, naw. It's okay," said Saciel. He walked, but his body refused to obey his will. Oleng's body. In the next instant, he fell down and his head smashed into the rock until it bled.

"SACIEL!" sahut Phillip's.

"Miss Arakawa!" call Parvati while running towards her. He wipes the wound and heals it, but the wound is not completely covered. "Gosh, it's so hot."

"Let's take him to camp" Max said as he carried him leisurely. "Oi witch! Let's go."

"Yes yes, you're a bitch," complained Phillip as he flicked his fingers. They teleported and returned to the camp. Max slowly laid Saciel on a thin mattress inside the tent, while Kezia sat beside her with a worried face.

"Nee," he called her down. Parvati put on a smile and patted her head.

"It's okay, it looks like Miss Arakawa is just exhausted," Parvati comforted. Kezia simply nodded, then placed his head on top of Saciel's hand. Parvati walked out and took the water with a small basin in her hand. "Mr Arlestine, do you have a piece of cloth or a small towel?"

"There! Let me take it for a second..."

"Now, just put this on," Max cut out while holding out a white handkerchief with the initials 'M'. Parvati immediately took it and immersed it in water. After squeezing it, he carefully placed the handkerchief on the witch's forehead.

"Ngh" said Saciel.

"Nee," call Kezia again. "Hiks, don't leave Kezia."

"Shh, Kezia. Miss Arakawa just fainted, not dying" Parvati said. Kezia just nodded and stood guard, while Parvati walked out and met Phillip.

"Can we find a healer here?" ask Phillip.

"I doubt I can, but we can use the medicinal plants around us" Parvati replied. Max shook his ears and stood up.

"We're pretty good at medicinal plants" chirped Max. "Maybe I can help."

"It's not usually you offer help. Do you have ulterior motives?" philip asked doubtfully.

“Cih, since when do I have a veiled intention like you?” reply Max kalem. “You want to help what not?”

“Iya yes, let's quickly find,” grumbled Phillip. They walked around the dragon's nest and found a large garden full of strange plants and plants in general. Max looked at some plants, then pointed at a dull brown shrub grass with thin needle-shaped leaves

“What plant is this?” ask Phillip.

“In my country, this plant is called ‘Jarum Matahari’. This plant is used as a basic ingredient of medicine, even we can consume it directly,” said Max. Phillip just nodded and picked some leaves.

“This is really safe, right?” ask Phillip.

“Aman kok,” said Max offended.

“Do not get angry, I only know this plant only as an ornamental plant,” Phillip said defensively. They returned to the camp and found Parvati boiling water.

“Welcome back. Have you found the medicinal plant?” ask Parvati gently. Phillip showed off the leaves he picked with a slightly doubtful look.

“This...not the Golden Thorn plant?” ask Parvati. “What can be used as medicine?”

“Can,” replied Max pongah. Parvati nodded and took the leaves from Phillip's hand. He went into the tent and found Saciel stroking Kezia's head, who was fast asleep.

“Good day, Miss. How do you feel?” ask Parvati.

“My body feels heavy and cold,” complains Saciel softly. Parvati gave her a glass of water and medicinal leaves, but the witch frowned.

“Not this from houseplants?” asked Saciel in doubt.

“...It feels really bad, but..my body feels lighter than before,” comment Saciel. “I have to thank him.”

“Need me to convey?” ask Parvati. Saciel shook her head and gestured to leave the room.

Parvati rushed out and walked over to the men who were engrossed in discussing plants.

“How?” ask Phillip.

“Nona Arakawa is feeling better. The plant given by Mr. Ackermann is indeed a medicinal plant,” reply Parvati. Phillip breathed a sigh of relief hearing that. He turned to Max who looked proud.

“You happy?” ask Phillip.

“No,” reply Max.

‘But lie. That's his tail

why sway mulu?’ phillip in his heart. “I'd better find food for us.”

“You can fish in a pond, can hunt in the forest or pick fruit,” suggested Parvati.

“I think hunting doesn't matter,” chirps Max. “Not in the Holy Forest, right?”

“Of course not, Mr. Ackermann. Not far from the Holy Forest, you will find an ordinary forest filled with game animals,” replied Parvati. Max flicked his jacket and showed off a few small knives.

“You are full of preparation, yes?” chirps Phillip. “I'm coming.”

“Heh, a coward like you would like to come? Seriously?” taunted Max. Phillip just scowled, but he resigned.

“He is, I am a coward. Yes already, I just fishing here,” said Phillip. Max nodded and left the campground.

Careol City's

“You two failed to catch demi human?” ask Lao. Vristhi nodded, while Tania hid behind her. “And that's because Saciel confronted you, is that it?”

“Betul,” replied Vristhi kalem. Lao leaned back his body and let out a long sigh.

“Ya already, you can come back,” said Lao. After the two left, Lao checked his crystal ball and saw the weakly lying Saciel.

“Basic, you are a fool. Your kindness is not necessarily able to change this world,” muttered Lao. “But I'd better keep an eye on it.”

“Lao, can we talk?” chirps Julian. Lao turned around and found Julian leaning against the doorway. Lao gestured to enter and sat down.

“So, what's up?” ask Lao. Julian simply gave a piece of paper, making Lao frown. His hand immediately grabbed the paper and read it.

“This....are you serious about this?” ask Lao.

“As per your instructions. And that's what I got,” Julian replied. Lao paused for a moment, then gave a cynical smile.

“Arrange a meeting with Cerlina. I want to ask her to work together.”

“You're not serious, are you? That cute girl is the Great Priestess and you want to take her to work together?” ask Julian.

“I'm serious. Go and meet him soon,” Lao said as he flicked his hand. Julian nodded and left Lao.

“Hahaha, my stomach hurts. They intend to do that? Crazy!” lao said while laughing out loud. “It looks like it will be exciting if we join.”
