Chapter 364 - Arrival of the second expedition

Callisto, who was at the Prow of the ship, could see a beautiful bridge in the distance that seemed to be brimming with life.
Denahi, who was behind him, put his hand on his shoulder "I can see that this bridge gives off a kind of protection I imagine that the event of the sky that happened was due to something related to it.
But I'm glad we arrived but where we should disembark, or we still have to move somewhere else.
By the way, it is better that you hide until I present to you I don't know if the protocols changed in my absence, but I don't want to risk a misunderstanding "
At that moment, Callisto could see how two sh.i.p.s began to approach the coast towards where he was.
"I think we will disembark as the navy approaches us; let me speak, and maybe I can get them to take us to the capital."
The two sh.i.p.s continued on their way to Callisto's ship and very carefully accommodated two boards by which two Centurions climbed with blue clothes.
Callisto, wait for them in the middle of the ship.
One of the Centurions was a woman with brown skin and black hair who approached to welcome Callisto "Welcome crew of the second expedition.
I'm Captain Ixchel, but tell me if something happened since I can't see your captain or other crew members.
We have doctors prepared to assist the crew if necessary. "
Callisto shook his head. "Everyone is dead, and I am the only survivor. Come with me, I will show you the second captain's diary.
We arrived on the expedition to the island of Manhattan, but the cold and icy weather did not seem to be better in the north.
Our captain organized an expedition to take some supplies on the coast, but we were attacked by some kind of monkeys, and I only survived why I met Denahi, a former guardian of a nearby town. "
Denahi left one of the rooms, the two captains were surprised to see what humanoid one of the many enemies that attacked the walls looked like.
Ixchel held her sword but ended up relaxing when she saw Denahi smile. "An apology Denahi, but I was a few months in the line of defense fighting some beasts very similar to how you look.
Some of my companions died at his hands, and I have it very much in my memory. "
Denahi shook his head "No problem with it, Callisto meet me while he was escaping from what was once my town.
I decided to accompany him why I would like to speak with Emperor Flavio, to know if there can be a cure for the evil that affects my entire population.
In the sea, I could feel that an event occurred that sealed the road with the fourth dimension, so half of the work has already been done, we just need to recover the conscience of those I once called family. "
Ixchel sighed, "I hope you can get your family back; just let Callisto deliver the captain's diary and make a report, and we will guide the ship to the capital.
The sea passing the bridge is a completely safe area, so the journey will only take a few hours. I am sure that Emperor Flavio will allow him to speak with you.
We also have to prepare the doc.u.ments to inform the family of the crew that their husbands died on the expedition.
We might not be able to recover their bodies, but their children would talk about them as heroes of the Empire. "
Callisto gave a detailed report of how even with Denahi's help, he was able to get a large amount of dried meat while boiling casseroles could obtain water, which he bathed in a water bath to be able to seal it in a vacuum and not rot.
When he finished with everything, he looked at Ixchel. "Captain can inform my wife of my return. I just hope she has waited for me if I don't just tell her that I'm alive."
Ixchel smiled, "Don't worry, Callisto. I will personally inform your wife of your return.
A doctor will also come to review your vital states and determine if you need anything, your skin color is not very healthy to say. "
The two captains left, and Callisto sat at the ship's table, Denahi sat beside him while he listened.
"Denahi, since we are in this place, I have a little fear about my wife, what will happen if she looks for another man.
I could not judge her even though it was only a few months I feel it was years. "
Denahi let out a laugh "You're a survivor who traveled from the north of the continent and traveled back, don't worry about meaningless things.
In my tribe, when the men left the women waited for their husbands to return home, I am sure your wife will be waiting for you.
Now I hope that the doctor arrives soon. I want to see how he takes care of you, it is interesting to be able to see something other than medicine made with only herbs. "
A doctor in a white coat came to the table where Callisto was and began to check it for it. He began asking for discomfort or inconvenience Callisto had.
After the doctor checked Callisto's mouth using a wooden stick and some light made from a fireball, Denahi was surprised by the doctor's use of magic.
After this, the doctor began to perform some actions such as touching Callisto's neck when the doctor finished making some notes "Soldier Denahi because of the symptoms you have a lack of vitamins, your diet of only dried meat and some fish is insufficient.
At the moment you will have to take some vitamin preparations and you will eat fresh fruits and vegetables to start compensating for your lost nutrients.
When we get to the capital, and after your meeting with the emperor, you will be in the hospital for some time, I just hope you have patience because there are many injured due to the attack of the capital by some beasts.
Callisto looked at the doctor with some sadness "Doctor knows if the center was destroyed, my wife had a small sewing workshop in that place."
The doctor shook his head. "I don't have precise information, but I can tell you that the center where the Imperial palace was located was razed by those beasts.
You will have to wait for us to arrive at the port so you can receive information about your wife's status. "
Callisto sighed, "Thank you for the frank doctor, I want to be alone for a moment."
Denahi and the doctor left Callisto alone in that kitchen.
