Once they entered the blueberry village, they restored their health by eating three whole chicken and drank a barrel of wine. Even Gabriel was surprised by the appetite of Sif, who ate one of the chicken and drank half of the barrel.
"You should've seen my husband", he could eat and drink all this by himself" said Sif, getting a bit emotional after the wine, "tell me more about him" said the man. "Where do I start, he was tall, blonde, and handsome. He was bigger than a mountain. He had a big appetite and with it a huge stomach, but equally big arms. He gave the best hugs and kindest words." she said proudly, "how did he die?" asked Gabriel. "I will tell you later, I don't feel like it now" she responded
When they finished with their feast, they went to his house which was easy to find as it was the biggest and prettiest house in the village "looks like you are rich, huh? Your house looks like a damn castle!" said Sif amazed by the beauty of the house covered in gold and other precious metals.
They entered the house, "It feels weird getting into house this big...so where is your mother?" Sif asked. "I don't know, she is usually out of the house and only comes back in the night", but just in case, they searched the house for her, "well it seems she isn't here, I will go take a bath and then sleep, I will put a note in living room I came back so she doesn't get scared" said he, "but where do I sleep?" she responded, "wherever you want, you can come sleep in my room if you want, or guest room on the first floor" to which she agreed, she will sleep in a guest room.
After they success fully slept through the night, and in the morning Gabriel went downstairs expecting his mother made something nice for breakfast for her son who she hasn't seen for about two weeks now. But to his surprise he doesn't see her.
When he goes to see maybe she wrote him a note, he saw that not only was there no note of her, but the note he put last night was not touched, meaning she didn't come home last night.
Gabriel puts on his clothes with chainmail armor underneath and goes to wake up Sif, but he can't find her.
He rushes out of the house where he finds a note stuck on his door, showing him a meeting point. He was frustrated so he took his claymore sword and dual barrel rifle, and went to the place, but before he goes there, he has to make a stop at his friend's house.
Once he arrived at his friends workshop he greeted him and asked..."Hey, David, are you finished with upgrades?" said Gabriel to his friend, to which he replied with "I finished them just yesterday, they are fresh and ready for you"
The day Gabriel went out of his village, he told his friend that his path will lead him to this village again, and when he comes, he will need to resupply, so his friend worked on upgrades for his weapons all that time. He made bullets for his gun explode on impact, now being able to kill stone creatures in single blow, his old claymore was replaced with a new one, bit bigger but much sharper and much more durable, and Gabriel was even given a horse.
"This horse's name is Piebald, it is a descended of a legendary horse Red Hare, it will come in handy.". which was true, as meeting point he was given was quite far away, so he wasted no time, he thanked his friend, sat on his new best friend, and galloped to save his mother and traveling companion.
Once he arrived there, he realized, the meeting point is a random abandoned building, though he doesn't know which floor he has to go to. "I guess I need to walk through all eight floors"
Gabriel has a good stamina, but even a strongest man can't go through eight floors not make a single pause, which he did on the sixth floor, and between seventh and eight floor so he will be ready once he gets there.
But once he did, he opened the door and went straight to his gun, only to see his mother and Sif, but no enemy. He then went straight to them but heard "No, no, no don't do that... you see I am not a good fighter, but I don't like to lose fight either. Lets play a game" said a strange voice, "fuck you and your games, I've already beaten your strongest soldier, your smartest tactician, your slimiest man, I will beat you in 1v1, fair and square. Come at me, FIGHT!" yelled Gabriel.
"Well then too bad for you, because I will not show you where I am, and I will explain you the rules. My name is Josef Rudolf Mengele, and you will play my game. In front of you, there are both your mother and your girlfriend. Each one is tied to a chair, on top of them is a toxic liquid that will slowly kill them once it splashes all over them, but you have a choice. All you have to do is choose, you will choose which one of them gets killed and I will release the other one. You have 30 seconds to decide and I guess only option you have to save both of them is to kill me...but... I am on the first floor, meaning you cant get to me in time, and if you try I will just click the button and kill them both...if you try to untie them, I will also press the button...whatever you do to prevent them from dying, I will..."
"Mother." Gabriel interrupted him, "I choose my mother, kill her!" he said again
"I didn't think you will say that so easily, I didn't even start the timer yet" Mengele replied.
"I don't care, I love my mother, she is my only family, she is all I have, she always supported and loved me. I am sure she would support my decision if she wasn't unconscious. I choose to kill her, Sif will fulfill her destiny, she will find the Holy Grail and none of you will stop it"
"Ha ha ha, well if you don't have anything else to say, I will gladly kill her" said Mengele, and it was like that, he pressed a button, which poured the toxic liquid on his mother, waking her up in the moment. She screamed as her skin was getting torn off, then her muscles and organs, she felt every single part of her body getting destroyed while her own son looks at her. She died happy, it was as Gabriel predicted, she supported his decision
When Gabriel went to untie Sif, Mengele poured some of the liquid but Gabriel managed to get in between and he took all of it on his back. The amount wasn't the same that he poured on his mother, but it managed to burn his back and get some skin off of it.
Gabriel managed to untie Sif, lifted her up and went down stairs. Outside he saw that after Mengele went out of the building, Piebald crushed and killed him.
"One more defeated"
