The Miko That Transcended (Inuyasha/That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime)

Chapter 13

      The next day I sent Gazel and the others off, waving goodbye and wished them safe travels. The alliance between the Jura Taisho Federation and the Armed Nation of Dwargon was established, and our nation of monsters and humans gained powerful backing support. But no sooner he left, he was back two days later.

     "I'm back!" Gazel stated with a smile.

     "What brings you here this time?" I tilted my head confused.

     "I'm here to give you all a gift." He told me.

     "A gift?" I blinked in surprise. Gazel looked behind him and gave a grunt. His two guards held something in a brown blanket. From the looks of it, a person was inside of it. The scent of this person was strangely familiar. The guards threw the blanket and the sack fell to the ground, slightly opening to reveal its contents. My eyes widened as I recognized him immediately.

     "Ah, it's Vesta." My eyes widened. I walked over and poked his cheek. It seemed he was suffering from motion sickness. I pushed my reiki out of my hands and started to heal him. Luckily Kaijin was walking by when he saw this. He was looking down in shock while I healed him.

     "It seemed a waste to leave such a talented man doing nothing, but I cannot allow him to work in my service. Use him as you wish." Gazel said seriously.

     "My King...That would allow Vesta's knowledge to leave the Dwarves!" Kaijin countered.

     "Says the man who left the Dwarves himself?" Gazel shot back. Kaijin flinched. "That is what this alliance is for. Make this land you have chosen to inhabit a leader in new and unique skills!"

     I slowly helped a conscious Vesta to sit up. Gazel looked down at the man.

     "Vesta..." Gazel called, making the man flinch.

     "Yes?"

     "Devote yourself to studying here." Gazel order.

     Vesta bowed to him. "I shall. My King, this time...this time, I will live up to your expectations." He suddenly turned to me and Kaijin. "Kagome, Kaijin...I am truly sorry. I will even apologize to Rigur when I see him. Will you allow me to work here?" He bowed his head to us. I could smell salt as he cried. Kaijin and I looked to each other.

     "Having one more talented researcher around will be a big help." Kaijin mused. "Kagome, if anything bad happens, I'll take responsibility. Please have faith in me and show him mercy." Kaijin bowed his head to me.

     "Kaijin..." Vesta look up at the Dwarven man.

     "If it's okay with you, Kaijin, I have no objections. Just make sure you apologize to Rigur." I looked to Vesta, who nodded. I smiled. "Welcome aboard, Vesta."

    "Thank you! I am unworthy, but I will give my utmost effort for you!" Vesta bowed his head to me.

    "Then, farewell." Gazel shouted before turning around, his cape swishing as he did so.

     "Such a dramatic exit." I softly chuckled. As I watched the knights fly away once again, Rigur came over to me with a smile.

     "You never cease to amaze me." He smiled.

     "Rigur." Vesta called, making my mate looked down at him. "I'm truly sorry about my actions." He apologized genuinely.

     "Hey, it's okay." Rigur smiled as he knelt down and placed a hand on the man's shoulder. "Welcome to the village."

      Somehow we gathered a gathering of Goblins, who were clapping at my newest accomplishment. I sighed as I looked at them, then smirked. Then I noticed four new faces in the crowd.
