Chapter 106 Chapter: 017 Strange Book (2/2)
Lianna eyes shined upon seeing Elijah's gentleman manner, she giggled as she said with a flirting voice. ”Hee hee, what a elegant young man you brought with you Zigan, and he is so handsome too. If he continues to act like this I can even kick my husband out the village and have this boy stay with me.” Elijah's body was visibly quivering when he heard that, but he feign ignorance of what he just heard and stayed on the side hearing their conversation.
Three hours later, Elijah and Zigan departed the Line Village while carrying a one sack of grain and one of meat. In the meanwhile, Elijah would gaze at the direction of the mountain he left Luna and Keith while he sudenly spat a mountful of blood while feeling the sensation of colapse emerging from within him. 'Shit, this is because I used the power of the three energies at the same time?'
Elijah gathered all his strength to not fall as one of the three bodies standing before the golden gate inside his soul. Elijah's Mortal Body glowed with golden vital power as it was send to help him.
”Are you okay?” seeing Elijah was acting strange, Zigan could not help but ask if he was okay.
”Of course, let's get going.”

In a lake surrounded by multicolored trees, a woman was static, looking at the lake as a black, draconic figure with the form of a man walked through the trees towards her. This figure had two shining golden spheres in his eyes full of an ominous glow.
Kneeling towards the woman, he said, in a voice full of adoration while looking below as he did not dare to look straight at her: ”Milady, we received the news that the small group of 20 Mortal Will fighters we sent to collect the taxes on Kine Village was decimated by an expert in illusions that not only made everyone unconscious while he killed our brothers as he also wiped the villagers memories about his face. We also don't know who did this or why he did this.”
To his words, the woman only snorted. ”To think there is someone so stupid to threat my domain. You said Illusion, right? It must be one of the close tribes, the Three Eyed Monarch's tribe. Only his men could have so powerful illusions to make an entire village like this. Also don't kill the villagers, just rise the taxes by 20% and it's fine.”
The draconic figure hesitated for a few moments before continuing. ”I understand, but there is another thing I have come to say. An strange book has fallen in the middle of the A-rank region's Citadel, several clans are fighting for it, including your family milady. Your family send the mensage teling the news that your grandfather, the Citadel's future sucessor, had his body desintegrate the moment he tried to read the book. After his death no one has tried to open the book as if this book had the power to kill a fake Immortal like milady's grandfather, what else could it kill.”
