Viktor put his hand around her neck and said, "Sae is your past, and Umilia is you in the present and future."

Umilia softly smiled as she nodded but then she remembered something and added, "But it is strange that Nyissa told me I shouldn\'t reveal myself as a witch in this place. She didn\'t say why since she also had no idea. Maybe only the elders know."

"Weird….Anyway, let\'s see what the natives are like," Viktor put his arm around Taya as well as the three descended down the hills.

"Welcome, welcome. Lady Taya…Does this old man remember, right?" An old man with a slight hunch on his back asked with an amiable smile while limping forward with the help of his walking stick.

He was the Sunkova Chief and came out when his people informed that three foreigners were approaching their settlement. He was surprised and got worried as he rushed out to see who they were, but upon seeing Taya\'s face, he relaxed and rushed forward to greet her and her friends.

Taya smiled as she gave a subtle bow and said, "You have it right, Chief Tamo. I am glad you still look well after the last time we saw each other. And please call me Taya. I am just a tourist here, after all."

"Hoho, this old man is barely clinging on to his life, but I am astonished that you look even younger and prettier than the last time this old man saw you unless my memory fails me. Ah, are these two beautiful people your friends?

Viktor hugged both Taya and Umilia as he said, "I am Taya\'s husband, and this beautiful woman named Umilia is also my wife," As he said this, he also saw the natives here peeking out from behind their homes and trees, staring at him with strange gazes.

All of them had brown skin and dark brown eyes though all or most of them seemed to have an athletic build with fairly good looks. He wondered if these people exercise or build muscles by doing labor and due to their lifestyle.

Umilia greeted Tamo with a friendly smile as Viktor introduced her, "Chief Tamo can just call me Umi," Since Umilia was assuming her human status, she preferred to stick to it in this place.

Taya blinked her eyes in surprise as her cheeks got covered with a red tint. She thought Viktor might, at best, say she was his girlfriend since they weren\'t married. However, she loved hearing him say that more than she ever expected and didn\'t say anything.

Viktor actually didn\'t care about marriage as long as he considered a woman as his.

"Ohh…" Tamo was surprised, but then he smiled as he said, "I may not know Umi, but I can feel that she is just as kind and a good human being like Taya. You young man is very lucky to have such beautiful women as your wives. Since they chose you, you must be quite extraordinary. If only my son was like you, this old man could have…sigh…" Tamo\'s words trailed off as his eyes became tired for a second.

Taya\'s brows creased as she asked, "What happened, Chief? Is your son alright? Last time I remember, he was doing quite well, wasn\'t he?"

Tamo\'s eyes became normal and calm as before as he let out a subtle laugh and said, "Hoho, don\'t worry too much. This old man was simply rambling. My son is just being a bit lazy these days, but nothing to worry about."

Taya shook her head with a smile while Viktor furrowed his brows, wondering why this man seemed like he was hiding something.

Of course, ordinary people might not find Tamo\'s words as strange, but Viktor noticed the micro expressions he was making and felt that something was up. However, he didn\'t ponder about it since it was not his business to poke his nose into the old man\'s family stuff.

Tamo added with a baffled look, "I am very surprised you all managed to pass through harsh weather and waters to reach here. I am very worried about how you all will return," Tamo said while wondering how he didn\'t learn about their arrival until now.

Taya knew she couldn\'t tell them that Umilia brought them here and said, "Chief Tamo, please don\'t worry. We will be going back through a submarine."

\'A submarine? Seriously? Haa…The perks of having a rich woman,\' Viktor sighed while thinking it had been a long time since he stepped foot on one.

Tamo raised his brows, "Ah, just like how you first came here. Good, good. Now, follow me, and let us make you three feel comfortable. How long would you all be staying here?"

"Just for the weekend. We just came here for some sightseeing and adventure," Taya answered.

"Hoho, our island is the best place for that. We will also set up a place for all three of you to sleep during the night," Tamo said and then looked at his people who had crowded over with curious looks while some seemed to recognize Taya and greeted her.

He called out to his people in his mother tongue, "Why are you all standing here? These three are our guests for two days. Go and arrange a place to stay and bring the best food we have for them to eat. Also, where is my daughter? I am sure she would be pleased to meet Taya again."

One of the older women standing nearby answered him, "Chief, your daughter is still at the Faceless Temple as always. Should I—"

"Of course! Go and call her. It is not every day we receive guests," Tamo said as he limped forward while leading Taya and her people with an amiable smile.

Taya and Umilia couldn\'t understand what Tamo or his people were talking about since they didn\'t know their native tongue.

However, Viktor had a puzzled expression since he actually understood what Tamo and his people were saying. He was sure he had never heard or spoken this language before, but now it felt like he always knew it but never realized it until now.

"Hey…I think I understand their native tongue, or am I imagining it?" Viktor whispered to Taya and Umilia as the two looked at him with confused looks.
