Chapter 79 - Amelia's Story
After coming out of the bathroom we went towards the dining room, everyone was present except for Richard. I looked at everyone and greeted them then I asked," Alan has the shop building completed".
"Except for putting the furniture other things are finished", Alan replied.
"It was finished pretty fast", I exclaimed.
"It was all due Amelia's help, if it weren't for the helpers it would take some time", Lina commented.
"If everything is prepared then now I will tell you your works", saying so I looked at Amelia," your job is to look at your employees and see if they are doing their job properly".
Then I looked at Lina, Ava and Olivia and said," you need to put on a maid costume and then be near the counter and help people maintain the discipline or else it will be difficult to sell the crayfish fast".
"Alan your job is mainly to practice spell recovery, this is the best opportunity to fully grasp the techniques to reduce the cast time of the spell", while I looked at Alan and said to him.
"Drake, you must look at Aaron and Lisa, while you both must be obedient and stay inside", I looked towards the trio and said it.

I nodded my head and said," Then let's eat dinner".
As we were going to eat the food, the door was opened and Richard came inside.
"Dad you are back", Aaron exclaimed, while Richard smiled at him. Then he looked towards me and said," leader you were right, those big families co-operated with the dark guild, I had contacted the JUSTICE FORCE, their members have arrived and taken them to BLACKWATER PRISON".
Hearing Richard words I asked," how many prisoners were rescued".
Richard had a sad face and said," there were as many as two thousand, in which fifteen hundred were all girls and the rest five hundred were men who accused them of kidnapping".
" Leader like you told I took all the treasure away, I managed to collect 200 platinum coins, 1000, diamond coins and 50,000 gold coins. There were several boxes of monster cores that I have not counted", saying so Richard handed me the space bag.
While Amelia looked at Richard with a bewildered expression as she knew Richard level was higher than hers. She also knows that his name is famous throughout the holy land as he was one of the disciples of the Sage. Now she saw him listening to my order and still had a respectful expression which made her look at me twice. But now she looked at me differently as if looking at a leader.
I did not notice Amelia expression and said," you keep the money, just give me the monster cores, they might be helpful to me, but eat the dinner first".
Richard sat with us then we ate our dinner. Then I looked at Richard and said," Mr Richard I hope you will deter some people's if they are making a fuss, especially I have set two prices one is for rich people that is one gold coin for one and the other is for poor or common people that is for 1 silver coins".
"That's all for now, next day in the morning I will instruct you again", saying so I headed towards my room.
Inside the room, I looked at Lucy and said," hey do you want to make love".
"Not now, tomorrow is the first day so you can just embrace me and sleep", saying so she changed into her human form and then she embraced me and soon fell asleep. Seeing her sleeping I just kissed her in the cheeks and embraced her, then after some time, I fell asleep.

While Lina, Ava, Olivia and Amelia were inside one room and then the girls were chatting about their past and how she joined the guild.
Hearing Lina talking about her experience with the previous guild, then how she met Robin and then she said the story of giving her legendary skills and then the gift of legendary equipment. Hearing her experience other girls had tears in their eyes.
Then Ava began to share her own story, how she met Robin, that was the peeing accident and then the way she was tortured by him, causing the permanent shadow in her heart, while Lina also exclaimed that she also was tortured by him, surrounded by bugs, which made Olivia shiver while Amelia listened with a curious expression.
After Ava, Olivia began to share her story, of getting caught by dark guilds, then how she was lucky enough to meet us. Then she also narrated her painful experience of eating the food. Hearing her words, Amelia realised why Olivia had little food on her plate.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThen it was Amelia's turn to speak, while other girls looked at Amelia with curious expressions. Then Amelia said," actually what I am going to tell you is a secret you need to keep from the leader".
Saying so she continued," When I was three years old I remembered I lived with my parents happy when one day, my parents went both to work then after that I never heard from my parents. As I was small I didn't know what works my parents did. So I couldn't look for them. I was scared and waiting for my parents to come back, but I never heard from them. After three days the food was all over and the next day I went out to look for food, but I couldn't find and any so I needed to sleep outside. I went towards my neighbour before but they didn't even listen to my words and I was forced to leave".
"Next day I became more hungry, but as I didn't have any food at home or any money left, so I went towards the restaurant hoping to get some food, but as I was going to enter the door, the guard shook me away and threatened to beat me. So I had to go. That was the first day I realised the meaning of hunger and the importance of food",
saying so she had tears in her eyes.
Then she continued," Next day, I couldn't control my hunger, as my body was feeling weak, my stomach was making sound then I gradually looked at the dustbin. I began to check inside hoping to find some food, but I found none. I was discouraged but then again began to look for food. Then I went towards the restaurant. I searched for some leftover food. I gradually found some and then I ate it".
"Many people looked at me with pity and went away, while some people began to lecture their children and set me as an example, but none of those people came to help me. That day I realised the darkness of this world", saying so Amelia tried to suppress her emotions and she continued.
"As I got food to eat, so I decided to make it my base and live here, but many people other than me was also present, I couldn't fight over them for food, so I had to look for other things to eat. I went to look for work, but looking at my small body many people rejected me. Now I was desperate for food and I couldn't do anything. As I was thinking that my life was going to be over for better, then I heard a voice of an old man, who asked me," Do you want to see your parents again?", Saying till?here Amelia stopped while all the girl's eyes were wet.
Then she continued," As I didn't have enough energy to speak I could only nod my head. Then he cast a spell on me, I felt all the weakness inside my body had gone and then he said," your will train with me for a few years and learn everything and then I will tell you the location of your parents".
"Hearing his words I nodded my head, then he took me with him towards the holy land. Here I was introduced to alchemy from the very beginning and I became an official alchemist by the age of ten. When I was fifteen years old, I had already become an intermediate alchemist and now I can reach the advanced alchemist as long as I am provided with a pink grade elixir. My master also thought me fighting techniques and as I am an alchemist my aura control is better than an adventurer. Then my master asked to settle in base 2 and enter into fairy tail guild, they will help you find your parents.", saying so she stopped.
"Then I began to enquire about their news and gradually found Richard and contacted him. Then the next day I met the leader, where I had to become naked and show my body, but he didn't accept me but took my treasure, as I went near him and asked him to return my treasure he gradually accepted me in your guild", saying so she stopped and looked at everyone....
