Harrian jumped through the trees for ten minutes, before finding a large hollow where he entered. There, Harrian looked around, using [Primal] to gain a cat's eyesight to help see better in the dark. Hearing a sound, Harrian looked up and saw that he had awakened a [Giant Squirrel] who had woken up.

It was quite a simple beast; it was a ten-metre tall squirrel, angered by its nap being interrupted. It opened its mouth and fell towards Harrian, in which he retaliated by dodging out of the way and placing his left hand onto the squirrels head.

"[Rebound]," The squirrel's head became dented, blood coming out of its nose and mouth, making a massive thud as it hit the ground. Harrian looked at the dead beast and decided to let everyone out of his tophat, slowly.

The group of four jumped out of his tophat and looked at the massive beast, shocked. They put together that Harrian had defeated the creature and they saw Allanae kneel around the c.h.e.s.t of the squirrel and touch it's fur, nodding.

"What are you doing?" Atogin asked, his feathers turning back to their natural colour.

"I need to make some clothes which I can do myself."

Atogin blushed and told her to carry on, walking away. Like Harrian, Allanae also had the [Skill: Thread Control], and very quickly, a small shaved spot on the squirrel had appeared. Allanae stood up and unbuttoned the single button which kept her hood and cape on and it fell to the ground, revealing her clothes.

She had only made some bra's and p.a.n.t.i.e.s, both unable to see through and to see this, Harrian put his cape on her and helped make some more clothes. Five minutes later, Harrian took back his cloak, revealing more clothes on Allanae.

A furry short sleeve crop top, covering her hands, leaving her elbows and the bottom of her c.h.e.s.t was exposed. On her waist she wore some short pants, only going a quarter of the way to her knee, whilst she wore nothing on her feet, saying that it felt more natural to her, as there was some exoskeleton on her feet.

Meanwhile, everyone was amazed by her looks. Snow white skin, and hair that reached her waist, almost seeing a symmetrical pattern on either side. She had four fingers, all of them covered in some exoskeleton which reached her elbow. Atogin did a catcall, and Enar rammed her right elbow into his c.h.e.s.t, him saying 'Ow' and stopping.

"Harrian if you haven't already guessed, this is Allanae, she will be joining us for a while," Enar explained.

"Alright then welcome to the team!" Harrian put his arms around Allanae, as she was confused by what was happening.

"Wait!" A feminine voice echoed "I disagree!"

Harrian stopped his embrace and took his top hat off his head and looked down.

"It's good to see you Rache," Harrian smiled as a small white spider crawled out of the tophat and glared at Allanae.

"We already have a silk bug on our team, and that is ME!!" Rache used her front right leg and pointed it at Allanae.

Everyone was startled, that was the first time they have all heard Rache. It wasn't as light as they thought it was, but a deep voice like teenage girls. Allanae was looking down on the spider, showing a smug face which angered Rache more.

"I don't like you, and I think you shouldn't be able to come along!"

"Why, Rache?" Harrian asked, the spider turning around and looking at him.

"Two bugs, both doing stuff with string, both white, and both have parental issues,"

"How do you know that last part?" Allanae asked. "You were inside Harrian's storage, so how did you get that information?"

"You thought I was unconscious for more than ten days? No, I trained in the [Skill: Telepathy], so I could finally talk to everyone, also Nicko, here you go," Rache broke off one of her legs and flicked it towards Nicko's mouth, which went to him and got caught in his throat.

"*Gulp*, nice," Nicko smiled "[Spider Sense] sounds intriguing,"

"It saved me once, now back to the topic, I declare my vote that we shouldn't follow Allanae,"

"Too late Rache, cause everyone's fine with it, isn't that right?" Enar said, everyone, nodding in agreement.

"Fine, I lost, now excuse me, whilst I go pout," Rache tried to head back into the [Infinite Item Box] through the tophat, but she was met with a wall, the other end of the hat.

"Harrian," She continued. "Your [Skill] isn't working!"

"For you, it isn't, the item [Pet: Rache] has been banned from my storage by me," Harrian explained.

"So where am I supposed to live!"

"Around Allanae, as you will grow to like her is that clear!"

Rache was silent, as she looked at the new girl, seeing that she had already made some weapons. A shield made out of the squirrel's half-broken skull and the squirrel's spine as a massive one-handed sword.

Allanae led the way, with Rache begging to make a nest in her shield, inside the eye socket of the squirrel, meat still attached, the spider devouring it in anger. The group followed Allanae's lead, and they went further into the forest.

Meanwhile, in the centre of Grandage, something else was afoot. A bathhouse, two men, surrounded by female elves, all n.a.k.e.d, with different body shapes, were there. The two men were having a conversation, the rest of the women silent.

One of the men was Ligo, a short time enemy of the [Heroes Party], whilst the other wore the spear of Allanae's wanting, [Chaos North]. Ligo was laying down on a table, a blue-headed elf, looking roughly in her thirties, was slowly tapping at his skin with a thin black piece of rock attached to a stick and a stone. It was the elf giving Ligo a tattoo of something, as it was the perfect time to talk.

After five minutes of getting the tattoo, the other man got up and covered his waist with a soft pelt, working as a towel. He then walked halfway through the room until he got a bottle of white champagne, which he popped open and drank out of.

"I have to thank you Ligo, without falling into our chamber, I would've stayed there for a few more thousand years," The man said.

"It's a p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e, and - OW!! Watch where you're giving me that tattoo!" Ligo then backhanded the woman with his right hand.

She tumbled over, grasping her right cheek, picking up her tools and began to go to work again. The girl was afraid of the two boys, something for her that she hadn't experienced until now.

"Be careful; we wouldn't want to harm the queen of the fairy's would we? After all, we still need her, a purpose to make my army quite stronger,"

Ligo nodded in agreement "I do hope it comes out as I want it to,"

"I'm just not sure why you want a wing of a cicada on the back of your shoulder?"

"...A small monologue if I may?"

"You may; I want to hear your story,"

"Before coming here, I was a thirty-five-year-old florist with two children, I always got good grades as a child, and I've been sober for fifteen years at that point. I think that it was time for a change, to my, you know, attitude, that and I'm glad you stuck around, Pestilence,"

"Please Ligo we're friends, call me Beezlebub, because that's what I am," He took another swig of the champagne.

"Alright, Beezlebub, the persona of pestilence, I am grateful that I found you and unlike the rest of your freinds, decided to stay with me, and look at you, your kind remembers and now we have a new territory,"

"Calm down Ligo; we still need to deal with them." Beelzebub ran his right hand through the air, and three screens popped up, all going in the brothel, 'The Cats Cradle'.

Some massive bipedal ants, the same ones which the [Heroes Party] had seen, it was showing their memories like security footage. It showed the recollection of events from their view, including the beheading of the guard, in which Ligo had to look away from the blood.

Seeing what was happening, he looked closer at the footage and saw a [Demihuman] turn into Harrian. One of the ants had hit him, sending him through to the next building, only to be defeated instead. The three screens went hazy, but one flickered only enough to see Harrian grab a wall and escape.

Ligo curled his hands into fists and looked at Beelzebub. "Have you found her soul yet?" Ligo asked quickly.

"Relax, those weren't our only three troops, you have a lot more coming," He smiled.

Ligo turned around and began to walk out of the bathhouse, fetching a robe from one of the girls and wrapped it around himself. He looked back at Beelzebub, before quickly turning his head around and making a 'tch' sound with his mouth.

With Beezlebub alone, he decided to call in some more women, only just to talk. His attitude was that of a kind ruler, despite his deeds, and the [Elves] and [Demihumans] didn��t mind him that much over his personality, it was just what he was doing that was wrong.

He then decided to make all of the girls leave, and eight warriors, all with their heads bowed and for some reason, drenched in a shadow black had appeared and kneeled at the sight of Beezlebub.

"Mida, Jotun, scour the land for my enemies and try to end them, they almost lost with Muspel, so two of you should be able to kill them."

Two of them got up, one of them was to the right, and the other was to the left, two people either side of them. They bowed, and walked away, as the rest of the guards disappeared without a trace.

Beezlebub sighed and decided to leave the bathhouse himself, putting some little black leather armour around his body, which left his legs and arms b.a.r.e as he chose to sit on his throne with [Chaos North]. He sighed and looked down to his left hand, clenching it into a fist and turning it.

Screams were heard all across the room, as it was decorated with [Elves] and [Demihumans]. Melded into the roots of the world tree, being kept alive by it, still alive and feeling pain. Beezlebub did a small chuckle and decided that if anyone decided to oppose him, he would squish them like a bug.
