The next day, the druids decided to start the ritual to ask for help from the forest mother to expand the oasis by sacrificing their magic.
So that it can function better, the 10 volunteers will also use their magical energy as a support to be able to expand the Oasis as much as they can.
The Ahuizotl simply looked at all of them with curiosity because it would also be the first time he had seen such a ritual.
To begin, the druids began their ritual by creating a circle of salt in which they sat in the middle.
After this, they made wounds in their hands using daggers with which they stained the earth with blood. At that moment, they will begin to channel their magic through the earth.
As if it were magic, a projection of the forest mother was created, who looked fondly at the two druids because she knew what they wanted to do and was grateful for the sacrifice.
So she opened her hands and at that moment, the circle that surrounded the small oasis began to grow. The volunteers used their magic to help the mother forest.
But the ones who were really using all their power were the Druids who began to age because they were overusing their power.
Although this did not stop them as they continued channeling their magic, so the circle grew and grew.
After about 2 hours of working, the druids closed their eyes and turned to ashes as their souls were greeted by the forest mother.
Although their lives had come to an end, their sacrifice had expanded the oasis about 10 kilometers around.
From what had been a small Oasis had already turned into a small forest, the volunteers who were tired from using their magic proudly looked at their creation.
The leader of them, an elderly man on his way to Ahuizotl, “I think your work has been completed. We managed to expand a safe zone.
With it, we will only have to walk 20 km north to reach the safety of the walls.
But knowing that the skeletons do not attack at the beginning of the trip, I think it would be feasible to send cavalry from one side to the other in order to communicate.
I doubt very much that the cursed forest is going to change its rules on how its skeletons work, but with this safe zone, we can create an outpost.
With which we can properly supervise the entire operation of the cursed forest.
Unfortunately, we can only work near our door as we are too far from the lamias to start an exchange. “
The Ahuizotl just nodded and started on his way back, for that he ran through the new forest that had been created to reach the border of the barrier.
When he arrived, he used his shadow magic to enter the cursed forest, at first during the first kilometers he traveled, there seemed to be no enemies.
However, the noise of some roars made him prepare to face any enemy that came for him.
Unfortunately, what appeared surprised him and made him sweat because it was a group of shadow dragon skeletons.
Which created a current that simply prevented him from advancing so he knew that the only thing he could do was fought to get out of that place.
To do this, he turned into his humanoid form and came out of the shadows, prepared to fight and run.
For although he knew that he could stay and kill thousands of skeletons, he would gain nothing doing it. He did not believe himself to be a hero or some kind of mercenary.
All he wanted to do was be able to quickly return to his daughter so he could obtain the necklace with which he would protect his life.
Well, any extra security measures for little Diana were something worth working for.
When he came out of the shadows, he started to run and destroyed the shadow dragon schemes in his path on his way.
He only hit them hard, ensuring that part of their bones were destroyed before moving on, because there were too many of them.
He wasted no time focusing on destroying them, so he kept advancing the last few kilometers that were missing in his humanoid form.
When he reached the bridge, he took a stone of fire and concentrating much of his magic created a stream of fire that turned to ashes everything in a kilometer where the fire touched.
After this, he entered through the gate of the wall and became an Ahuizotl. Everyone who had seen the work of the Ahuizotl simply remained silent.
Well, they had no words to describe the destruction that he had caused with all his power, but of something they were sure and it was because of the Ahuizotl.
They had a full kilometer of forest exposed so that they could monitor the cursed forest in the best possible way.
The Ahuizotl, who was quite tired on his way to his hut where once he arrived, he could see an elf woman taking care of little Diana.
“Ahuizotl, your daughter fell asleep a few minutes ago, fed on your milk plant and is bathed.
If you need my services, you can look for me because I will take care of little Diana with great pleasure.
She is a very calm baby, but she loves her father very much because in her dream, it seemed that she missed him. “
The Ahuizotl smiled. “Thank you very much for the care of little Diana. You can tell Dragan that tomorrow I will speak with him about the assignment.
But at the moment I am too tired. I had to fight against thousands of skeletons on my way to this place. “
The woman nodded and left the hut so the Ahuizotl held her daughter with her hand and went to sleep in bed with her.
Little Diana, feeling the heat and her father’s fur, clung to him and fell asleep with a smile on her face.
While this was happening, Dragan sighed when he saw the report of what the Ahuizotl had achieved. “It seems that it was a good idea to have made a deal with the Ahuizotl.
I believe that the necklace of life will be a good accessory for your daughter, as I feel that this child will face horrible trials in the future. “
