Chapter 180: Unnamed
After Fuyu left without taking anything with him, as a pleasantries from those people whom he saved from the bandits. He traveled alone even though he met people on the way, he continued his path alone thinking about the journey, he had to follow in future all by himself.
Meanwhile, at side of the mountain range, from where the majestic entrance of The Emerging Magical city was shining in the evening with the orange glow of the sun radiating the marble plated on the stone gate made with presion and hardwork of multiple men.
Shongi, stood on the mountain side and gazed at the distant Kabua village, now known as The Emerging Magical city, with many people be able to use spiritual energy in there own benefits.
Shongi, was an old man with white beard as long as his hair, that was tied own it’s own with a disgusting look, like he haven’t showered in ages, even though his skin was dark and his body was unwashed and several types of insects were buzzing around him, flys were getting on top of his face. He seems like a disgusting perverted man, who get punished for his audacity. But in reality he, was not someone that shallow.
"Hah, so it is that Magical city, that had came in dreams. Hmph, clearly that dream definitely was divine. Really, my Goddess Aquila Really guided me right. She gave me those visions in my dreams and ordered me to find this place decades ago, definitely this would going to be the fortune for a lifetime for me. Oh Goddess Aquila, I granty you in my life if I didn’t put the whole world in your feet then take my precious life. You gave me, this power now I shall repay you even if it’s cost me my dear life. Hahaha.." Shongi, thought with a complicated expression on his face, autumn wind was breezing, the color of the autumn dyed the mountain, tree leaves were mix of yellow and red wild fruits were growing all over the place, only the bamboos remained green and erect. "Hah, but first I need to take a bath otherwise no one would let me enter inside the village.
Not long ago, the descendents of the Goddess Aquila were like these bamboos. Evergreen all the year, the overload of the clan was falling behind by what seems like a curse or a grave mistake. Shongi, told all the story to the village head aka the Mr. Demon, who control the village and appeare infront of everyone.
"Mr. Demon, I am the remaining dependant left in the world, please let me stay here, safe in these large and strong border of this city. I beg you." Shongi said as he bowed down on the ground with his forehead banging on the stone, painting it on the cold color of red of his blood. Manu, who was just taking the monthly stroll on the guild where people can join and get money in return of providing something useful to the village like marble, beast skin, meat, fermented rice, bear, tooth of large and ancient animals and those sacred flora that mentioned by Fuyu to Manu as a spiritual power bank and many more. People, even Manu himself need several thing after all everything came from nature. But as Manu was about to end the inspection and return to his marvelous third Floor Mansion which was made of wood and was a marvel of the modern architect in current times in the area where Kabua was situated as no one ever displayed anything more benevolent than this in this area outside the range where usually no one traveled, so no one knows about anything outside the range of Kabua.
Same with this man, Manu didn’t know him neither his origin not only Manu but no one present there on that guild knows about this person. The guild was not very good only had a structure of a long warehouse with ground of soil and few people were official and guildmates on the counter with multiple people from middle class background to poor background were present there exchanging goods to make there life sustainable and feed themselves and their family.
"Ugh..who the fuck is this guy..? He is wasting my time, I was about to go to my home and enjoy the night with my women but why does he seems so odd..? Should I execute him for suddenly attacking me, nah these people had seen me. And I need to maintain a good and authoritative personality infront of these villagers to keep my influence on them. Guess, I need to hear him out in personal." Manu thought as he first told Shongi to get up and stop making a fuss but he keep on saying that he needs his protection.
"Alright, come with me if you want to talk otherwise keep banging your head against the ground till you eventually die." Manu said in deep voice and walk off without looking as Shongi’s lips curled into smile as he slowly followed Manu with his man till they reached the carriage made of several marble, gold, silver and shells sea, shells.
"Hah got to rid of this young man as fast as possible." Manu thought as he was eger to meet his wives, slaves and maid in his mansion. He simply went inside the carriage as Shongi looked at Manu with suspicious eyes.
"Wait is he not going to listen to me..you no one ever disrespect me like this. I have even did that and get all bloody just to.." Just as Shongi was flaring inside of him, he learnt from one of the guards of Manu, who told him to get inside as Shongi without delay immediately went inside worried that the carriage might start moving without leaving a trace.
"So, who are you..and what brings you to me..? Huh..? Do you even know who I am..? And what would happen to you if you here to waste my precious time.?" Manu lunches forward as he grabbed the clothes of the old man which seems like from somewhere advance technology. Because this soft and fine clothes Manu had never touched before, this feature do get registered in Manu’s mind as he was surprised that something that ugly can be so smooth to touch.
"Mr. Demon, mercy, Mercy, Mr. Demon. I am here because I heard the benovalence of this mighty power and influence of you and came to seek refugee in your shadow." Shongi exclaimed in surprise by the sudden attack of Manu. Manu’s expression bit soften upon hearing his perise, he let go Shongi’s garments and give him chance to explain. As Shongi, all over again repeated the entire story. How he was the descendent of the Goddess Aquila clan, how his clan was suffering from a curse, how he ran from there to get help and what he wants from Manu.
"Oh so you want a safe place for yourself to help you live away from that curse as you are only the last descendent of that clan but how come I have never heard the name of a clan like that before..?" Manu asked with his fingers on his chin.
"Mr. Demon, that’s because we are quite far from here."
"Oh.. how far..?"
"16vouul"
"What..?" Manu asked in surprise as he didn’t understand his words because of different measuring system. "Tell me how long it will take to go there..?" Manu asked to know the distance.
"Around, a decade by horse."
"What..?"
"Does that mean..?"
"Yes, Mr. Demon. It took me more than decade to come here, that’s why I want your help." Shongi, requested again, Manu’s eyebrow raised as he asked.
"Oh, I see. You are truly from quiet far no wonder, I didn’t know anything about that. But tell why should I help you..? I won’t just, help you in tough time because you make me emotional by that story of how everyone who had seen that artifact got killed mysteriously." Manu said as Shongi, finally showed a smile which do made Manu suspicious but he ignored it and listened to that man which left Manu speechless and shock beyond understanding.
"What the fuck..is he talking about..? Does Fuyu’s words are wrong..?" Manu thought and after completing hearing, Shongi’s words Manu get completely convinced to let that man stay but Manu was about to reach his home so he ordered his man and gave Shongi some kuri to live till Manu told him the date and time to meet again.
After Manu, send that person away he get back to his house.
"Aghh..brother isn’t here. I need to ask him about this, I wonder when would he return because this information seems quite valuable. But, what Fuyu said was it really wrong, I have so many questions to ask and discuss with brother." Manu while being in thoughts entered inside his big mansion.
Nighttime had already came the surroundings were dark but the mansion had those shining flowers lighting the surrounding with several fire was lighting the inside of the mansion. And Upon arriving inside the house. Twelve beautiful females soon circled him who lives in that mansion as maid, wives, stolen daughter of others and slaves. Manu’s thoughts immediately vaporized and got replaced with joy of the night.
