Femdom Island

Everyone's hearts were heavy with sorrow. The air was thick with the scent of flowers and the somber mood was only heightened by the sight of the lifeless body lying peacefully on the floor with some of her body parts and organs missing showing, it wasn't a normal corpse.

"So this is what happened to Elisha after that battle?" Everyone was looking at the corpse-like thing in front of them but there were two individuals, who were devastated by this scenery compared to the others.

Alva and Usha had tears in their reddened eyes showing this wasn't the first time they cried looking at this.

If this happened before Usha became all vulnerable, she would have just kept looking at the corpse with blank look and when she is alone, she would have bowled her eyes out.

But rather than crying alone and keeping the pain inside, it was rather convenient that she relied on others, especially her daughter.

"Alva, do you remember how she used to play with you? Even though I was strict on you, she always doted on you," Usha said in a nostalgic tone.

Alva reached out and gently stroked her grandmother's hair, remembering all the times they had spent together and how she always used to play with her.

She looked at her grandmother's face, so serene in death, and felt a deep ache in her heart, which cannot be converted into words.

"Mother," the daughter whispered, her voice barely audible.

"I never thought, I will see her like this,"

The mother turned to her daughter and pulled her into a tight embrace. They stood there for what felt like an eternity, holding each other and crying. The weight of their loss was almost too much to bear and when they remembered this was just the begging of all their problems, Usha and Alva both felt like they were having a headache.

As they finally pulled away from each other, the mother wiped away her tears and looked back at her grandmother's body. She knew that her mother was at peace now, but the pain of losing her would never fully go away.

Even the little hope that she had in her heart faded away after seeing her body. She always waited for Elisha to come back someday and beat her again for the chief position, but Usha knew that won't happen again.

"We have to be strong," Usha said, her voice firm.

"We have to remember her and honour her memory. She would want us to be happy."

Alva nodded, her face still wet with tears. "I know, let's give her a proper send-off."

Even though they wanted to quickly burn the body and finish things, Eva and Lydia both advised them not to do that since the body of Number one can be useful for Nym to find anything.

After giving her body to Nym for research purposes and calming down, everyone gathered to discuss what they are going to do from now on since they wanted to rescue Nikol and defeat that unknown woman.

***

The group that gathered to discuss about rescuing Nikol consisted of nine women, each with their own unique strengths and skills. There was Usha, the fearless leader who had a sharp mind and quick reflexes. Next was Eva, a skilled fighter who could take down any opponent with ease.

Then there was Lydia, the brain of the team who could break any traps of enemies and extract information. Followed by Alva and Emily, talented just like their mother. Then there was Nym, a medic who could tend to any injuries sustained during the rescue. And last but not least, there was Zenda, a fast fighter who could even rival the speed of Eva and Usha.

Tisha, the powerful elven queen was also sitting with them with a rather gloomy and pale face because she started to blame herself for what happened to Nikol.

Then there was Treiya, who was the oddball in this group, who wasn't even a lover but decided to join because she had some idea to add to their meeting, but even though she wasn't a lover, she felt this strange emotion inside her when she got to know that an unknown woman kidnapped her benefactor.

Together, they formed a formidable team and were determined to rescue their lover.

"Sister, don't be stupid, even if we know where they keep Nikol, can we really fight with that woman and win? If we go like this, it would be just suicide," Lydia refuted her sister's aggressive behaviour.

"Then what are you suggesting we do? Wait until they do something to him," Dissatisfied by Lydia's answer, Usha also supported Eva's words surprisingly forming a strong tag team, but they were not strong enough to beat the arguments, Lydia brought causing both of them to close their mouths.

"We have to find who that woman is, maybe we should talk calmly with mermaids, we can't beat that woman with our strength, she was even stronger than Nikol,"

Zenda listened to their words without having a single idea what to do but suddenly Treiya disturbed their meeting, and timidly raised her hand.

"Can I talk?"

They looked at the only dark elf in front of them. Her hands were wrapped in bandages, displaying her injuries. Upon questioning her only, they realized that she had infiltrated their group, which was planning a suicide bomb attack. In order to contribute to the war effort. She had fought against her own race to defeat them and rescue Nikol.

After hearing it they couldn't help but be surprised by what happened to this woman, who always tried to hide when something big and dangerous happened.

"What is it, Treiya?" Showing none of them were offended by her request, she continued in a timid tone showing she was the same coward.

"I don't know about that unknown woman but, I think my queen, Ressha might know something," Treiya said.

"How? I'm pretty sure, Tisha here lived more than her but still, she doesn't know anything," Zenda didn't want to doubt her own future comrades, but at the same time she didn't blindly believe them and thought their words were a hundred precent correct.

"I didn't tell you this but Ressha had knowledge about this lands true history, I exactly don't know how, but she used to tell us some stories about them like how every race had something called a mythical rod in the past, and how goddess punished those mythical rods because they rebelled against the living beings,"

Treiya kept talking without even stopping showing, she wasn't trying to build up things and tell lies.

"I never heard something like that but if this Ressha really has that knowledge, she should definitely know about that woman, who was a beast," Tisha muttered a little offended that she had no idea about something like that existed.

"But why didn't you tell us about this earlier?"

"Nobody asked about it, only Nikol wanted to know everything so I told him everything," She said showing that it wasn't her fault.

*Sigh

"We really depended on him too much, we might have bothered him," Lydia said while holding her head showing her regrets.

"So then our next objective is to find this queen, but she should be free now that Eldora is dead," Usha muttered but, others didn't look like they were convinced.

"We cannot be sure, that she is dead until we find her dead body, so we will regroup our army and supplies before going to pick up their queen, I know this might be not the best option, but it's the only option," Lydia muttered showing going to battle straight without getting ready for another full frontal attack was just stupidity.

"Everyone, quickly try to assemble everything, until then we injured will rest, we will take back Nikol by any means necessary this time,"

Fired up by this development, everyone tried to leave the room but, they forgot that they had something else to discuss for a minute.

"About those cursed elves, we captured..." Alva and Emily both questioned.

"We can't really use them until Nikol come back, so we will have to imprison them," Zenda answered them.

"Nym, can you make some extra mana stones so we can cut off their cursed magic,"

Nym nodded her head showing it wasn't impossible but, at the same time she knew it wasn't something easy.

Everyone left the meeting room and on their way, they stumbled upon the room that Nikol always used.

Alva and Usha entered without any hesitation and took a deep breath and both of them lied on the bed and closed their eyes.

"I hope those bitches are not doing anything unwanted to him," Alva muttered worriedly.

Usha wanted to say that, there was no way but at the same time, she felt something was wrong with this whole incident. In the first place, why does that woman want Nikol? If they wanted to increase their race, they can simply come to a friendly plan instead of attacking, so she didn't understand their intentions,

"We will rescue him, even if he dislikes us at the end of the day we all love him,"
