Dragon Skeleton - Chapter45

Many shrugged their shoulders and walked into the Medusa Chief's' home 'under Vasaki's meaningful gaze.

To be honest, if this was considered a home, Many didn't even know what the house in Karo City was called.

There was no other reason. Although the house looked large, it could be said to be empty inside. There were only a few simple things that could not even be called "furniture" — a stone bed, a large stone platform, some drawings and a pile of cloth next to it, and a few wooden models that simulated the human body. After looking at them, it was obvious that these were the tools that Madam Vasaki used to design clothes.

Although the clothes in the tailor's shop were expensive, it didn't seem to be able to completely alleviate the pressure of survival for Medusa in the underground city. Many felt a little sour in their hearts. The scene of Madam Vasaki putting in so much effort to design clothes made Many feel that this madam who had always been smiling at them had a side of hard work that no one knew about.

In fact, with Madam Vasaki's extraordinary strength, she could make some magical equipment or enchant some equipment for a good price. However, Madam Vasaki was born into the Abyss Race, and the magical equipment that she could make had obvious marks of the Abyss Race. If other Mages on the continent found out about this, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Fortunately, Madam Vasaki started with ordinary clothes and added the most basic basic magic circles that were the least likely to show off Medusa's style. Her business was surprisingly good, and she barely managed to maintain the reproduction of the entire race.

Madam Vasaki's tailor shop had been in business for more than a hundred years. In these hundred years, Vasaki believed that it was the best period of time for the Abyss Race since the catastrophe.

Unfortunately, as the population of the tribe gradually increased, life that had just become a little rich gradually became tight again. Recently, some of the tribe members even began to enter a state of 'forced hibernation' due to hunger. To put it bluntly, it was to reduce their body's needs as much as possible and barely survive.

This situation made Madam Vasaki more and more anxious. She anxiously looked for ways to get gold coins. For this reason, she even hesitated whether she could break the rules set by her elders and sell a few high-end magical equipment. Because the magical beasts near the underground city had gradually decreased in the past hundred years, several powerful Magical Beast Lords really did not have the strength to hunt. Therefore, the quality of the magical crystals they hunted was getting lower and lower, and the quantity was getting fewer and fewer. Sometimes, it was even not enough to use the teleportation circle.

At this critical moment, Mrs. Vasaki saw hope.

The appearance of so many people immediately allowed Madam Vasaki to find a shortcut to solve the urgent situation!

That was the Space Ring that could greatly reduce the cost of teleportation!

The Medusa tribe did not have the craft to make the Space Ring. This mysterious ring could only be made by the Space Enchanter of the continent.

With this ring, Madam Vasaki was sure that she could save a lot of money to help her people.

In the past, she could earn 3000 gold coins for every piece of clothing she sold. However, 2900 gold coins had to be spent on the Magical Crystals that provided teleportation. The rest of the money was used to buy the simplest daily necessities. These necessities had to be small in size and quality. The more she bought, the more Magical Crystals she needed. As a result, only a few thousand gold coins could be used to teleport to the hands of the Medusa tribe.

After Madam Vasaki entered the house, she sat on the stone bed without a care. She sighed slightly, as if she was finally relieved. She looked up and saw that there were still many people standing. She could not help but smile. "What?

Why are you still standing there? Sit down and rest for a while. I will tell you what you need to do. "

Many obediently sat on the stone chairs. Through their clothes, they could feel the cold stone and the chill made their buttocks uncomfortable. It seemed that this place was really far from the surface. The Yin energy was very strong.

After coming to the underground city, Many spoke very little and thought a lot.

Apart from the shock brought by Madam Vasaki's Medusa's true appearance, there were many other reasons why they did not want to talk about it. What was the reason that caused these Medusas to be in such a predicament?

"Do you want to know why we are like this?"

Madam Vasaki's deep eyes stared at Many and casually brought up a topic. "To be honest, we poor Medusa have been living here for a long time. To be honest, I don't even know what our original home looked like. I have been here since I was born, in this dark and sealed underground city."

"Original home?

The abyss? "Many raised their eyebrows as if they were surprised by this news.

Madam Vasaki rubbed her eyebrows and said helplessly, "The abyss?

Yes, that's what you humans call it. However, the elders in my clan call it 'home'. Since I was born, I don't know where my 'home' is or what it looks like. "

"So, the Medusa Clan has been staying in this plane?" Many were curious. What was the reason why they could not go back?

"Then, during the battle of the abyss, the Medusa Clan did not retreat to the abyss plane?"

"This is also what I want to know. Sigh." Madam Vasaki looked at the stone wall beside her as if she was recalling something. She sighed softly. "I have been searching for this answer since I was young, but I still can't figure it out."

"Then, didn't your parents and elders say anything?"

Many were sorrowful that Madam Vasaki had a 'home' like him but could not go back. "Is there no clue at all?"

Vasaki shook her head. "My parents died not long after I was born. I have searched through all the books that I could find, but the records about our Medusa Clan seemed to have been purposely wiped clean. There are no clues at all."

"I am very sorry, Madam."

Many people couldn't help but be moved after hearing it. Judging from the situation described by the madam, there must be a lot of stories behind Madam Vasaki being able to reach where she was today and become a prestigious patriarch. However, they didn't need to guess to know that it was accompanied by unimaginable hardships and bloodshed.

"Forget it. Let's not talk about it anymore. I have told you everything I can about our problem. I did not hide anything from you. Little fellow, tell me honestly, aren't you afraid of me?"

Vasaki looked at Many with her bright eyes. She also sat up slightly. It could be seen that this question was very important to her.

Many curled his lips and said, "I am not afraid, but Madam really gave me a fright. To be honest, I really did not expect that the legendary clan leader of the Medusa Clan would become a tailor, and a very famous one at that."

When Vasaki saw Many's dissatisfied look, she smiled. She knew that he was a little angry at her for hiding the truth. She said softly, "Are you mocking me?

Little fellow, what's wrong with being a tailor?

Don't look down on tailors. The Medusa Clan is the race that is best at sewing in the history of the Abyss Clan. Don't look down on us. If we have enough materials, we can make more than just those fancy but useless gowns. "

"Oh?

What else can we do? "

Many didn't expect the topic to be brought up like this. He could not help but follow up on Vasaki's words.

"High-grade magic robes, shadow cloaks, and so on. Of course, you know that we can't sell the things we make on the market. Our elders have always warned us about this because the humans and elves are still thinking about the war that happened 3000 years ago. If the products of the Abyss Clan were to appear in the world, who knows what kind of storm it would cause."

Madam Vasaki tugged at the hem of her black robe. She moved her snake body, which was covered in crystal scales, onto the bed. She leaned lazily against the side of the stone bed and said softly with a charming expression, "But so many years have passed. Giving a few pieces of underwear in private shouldn't cause any waves, right?"

What was this?

Was this a temptation?

Many smiled bitterly. He clasped his hands together and leaned forward slightly. He put on a formal posture and said, "Then … what do you need my help with, Madam?"
