The Last Primal

Chapter 664 - 664 - Orders

"[Reptilian] Papa, I'm thirsty!" The cute voice of Tolliah came from behind. She has been peacefully resting while Aiden was completing the ceremony and assisting each of his seven new family members, minions to evolve. 

She either didn't register that all of her aunties and uncles have undergone a massive change, that their appearance has been drastically altered, or perhaps she just didn't care about it.

The same childish, innocent glimmer still sparked in her eyes, she looked at her dear, beloved 'papa' just the same as before. 

Even the humongous hulking massive beast of muscle, Tak didn't seem to phase her. She slowly sat up at the back of the parked cart and raised her little arms, wanting to be carried.

The voice of the small girl brought Aiden back to reality and out from the confines of his deep thoughts. A smile finally emerged over his troubled, weary expression, as he turned his gaze towards the small one. 

"[Reptilian] Certainly, little princess." He said. Acquiescing to her demands, Aiden walked over and promptly picked her up, carrying her in his arms. As her hood was pulled down whilst she was sleeping, Aiden leaned over and gave a small peck on the top of her forehead, earning a happy, gleeful giggle as a reward.

"[Reptilian] Papaaa! Stop that, others can see!" She playfully pouted as she threw her arms over his neck and once again reclaimed her deep hugging, 'koala' position. Her face once again planted on the safety of his chest, she felt the safest in his hearty embrace.

Only by doing this, did her thoughts stop wavering and venturing towards dangerous territories…

"[Reptilian] Alright, little one. Let's go inside and get you something to drink." Aiden smiled, sensing the stable, warm breaths tickling his skin through the thin fabric with each of her gentle snoozes. She was already resting once again as if nothing has happened, and she just merely swapped places.

The group watched with a matching, similar smile adorning each of their faces as the father and daughter pair enjoyed a moment to themselves. 

'As for you all…' Suddenly, as they were lost in their thought, their new Master's, Aiden's voice rang out in their minds. Once again, he was speaking in the strange mystical language that they somehow could now understand, yet still could not wrap their heads around. 'Follow up on Tak's request. We still need to explore the outer city and find a way inside without raising suspicion. To be able to find and save those we have originally come here for we will need a proper, working plan inside.'

Whilst he was slowly walking away, carrying the little sweet extra baggage in his arms, he continued giving out the orders.

'Dara and Pyre.' Aiden continued, now focusing on the two females. 'You two work on finding alternate routes into the inner city. Especially for you, Dara, your abilities to remain unseen in the shadows should be especially useful. Find a way inside and report back to me.'

'At your command, my Lord!'

'At your will, Lord!'

Both girls responded with a similar, reverent, respectful tone and bowed their heads, confirming that they accepted the order. A second later their figures vanished as both rushed to begin working on their assigned tasks.

Regarding for you four…' He then spoke to the four male captains he originally came with. The four that each now was similar to the carnivorous war general that attacked them, four armored sauruses. 'You guys work with Tak and watch the surroundings. Work with the locals, use the coins you have each been given, establish a network that we can use. We need to see the enemy movements if we are to hope to react properly.'

'As you command, Lord.' They spoke in unison. Pulling on their hoods, they covered their faces and fixed their attires to make sure nothing would be revealed. Whilst they still looked massive in size, that wouldn't raise as much suspicion if their true race as Sauruses would not be revealed. A few moments later, their figures vanished from sight as they turned around the corner and each picked a direction. 

Whilst they were mostly silent so far, their tasks were just as important as the one the two girls were assigned to. Creating a network would allow them to have an ear constantly on the ground. They could keep watch on the guards' and the church's every move, every action they took, and formulate a plan in case direct intervention would be needed.

'And as for you Tak…' Aiden then spoke to the only remaining but most eye-catching creature remaining in the dark alleyway. 'Before anything, work on your transformation skill. You should be able to return to your previous appearance. Learn to use it, and then keep yourself in that form unless I tell you you can change back. Got it?' 

Taking a moment, he continued before Tak could even speak.

'Whilst the others are also different, they could still walk around without raising too many eyes and turning all the heads. As for you… Well, I am sure you understand.' Finishing what he wanted to say, he turned around and looked at the lonesome Dread Saurian once more. 

'Y-yes, my lord! I will work on it as you command! I know I can't go out like this!' Tak hastily spoke up fiercely, vehemently nodding his large head in the process. 

Aiden watched as he immediately got into action, and closed his eyes. He raised his shoulders as he tried focusing on himself first. He flashed each of his muscles one after another before eventually, he seemed to have found what he was searching for. 

A faint golden light appeared around him, much too vague to properly engulf his humongous frame, but enough to be visible, akin to a fog.

Aiden smiled, knowing it would be quite a while before he could master the ability and learn to properly use the ability. Though it was not essentially the same, he was certain that Tak's shapeshifting worked in a similar fashion to his own. 

By finding its source, its origin, Tak had completed the very first step only. Now he needed to learn how to properly activate it from within his core and how to channel the newfound energy, a force he had never once had in his body, revolving it around each part, nook, and cranny before he could achieve any form of success.

Turning around, Aiden together with Tolliah walked towards the front door of the Inn, and entered once again, this time alone. 

He looked towards the chubby skink leaning over the counter in a bored-looking expression and slowly walked over.
