Chapter 236: The lantern festival (2) (1/2)

The five of them went onto the street in the upside where the festival was ongoing , Rudra was surprised to see soo many people there , it seemed like half the upside was present on the festival street today.

Rudra could see many familiar faces from the guild. He spotted Bo and Skyla , apparently they were roaming with vice guild master Karna .

Karna also spotted Rudra and gave him a big grin , and made a ' yo ' sign with his hand , Rudra first looked towards little Max , to check if he could see what he was about to do next , but little Max's attention was apparently caught up in the nearby ice cream store.

Assured that he would not learn bad habbits from him , Rudra looked at Karna and gave him the middle finger with a smile.

Karna bursted out laughing , and soo did Rudra , they both needed no words to be exchanged to show how understanding they were of each other.

Rudra then pointed towards little Max and ruffed his hair , Karna understood that he was out with his little brother , and made a Ok sign , to show that it was okay for him to carry on with his buisness.

Rudra nodded , and moved on .... On his way however many guild and even non guild members stopped to greet him upon seeing him. Rudra was a well known figure in the upside now , everyone knew he was close with Ethan Grey and the guild master of the guild that was the overlord of Purplehaze city.

This was both gratifying and troublesome for Rudra , he loved the attention , however not when he was out with Maxie , there he just wanted time with his brother.

However Max loved the respect his brother was getting , as he would say ” My brother ” and hide behind Rudra's legs , as someone would come and greet him .

After a while Max said ” Big brother you are famous! Like a king! ”.

Rudra chuckled he wanted to deny the claims his brother made , but Yua cut in , she said ” Yes , your brother is a king , he rules over a city you know ”.

Max looked at Rudra with gleaming eyes when he heard this .... He said ” Brother I want to go to your kingdom , I will eat lots of ice cream there. And noone will scold me as my brother will be king ”.

Naomi and Yua together said ” Aplained to Rudra with a teary eye .... ” Brother , the big bad aunty is bullying me ”.

Naman ” .... ”

Naomi ”.....”

Yua ” A...A...Aunnty? ”.

Rudra picked Max back up , and gave a death glare to Yua , nobody made Little Max cry ... If someone did , they would face the wrath of his brother.

Yua felt wronged , as she wanted to explain herself to Rudra , however seeing the cold look on Rudra's face as he consoled Max , no words came out from her mouth.

Naomi could barely control her laughter though , as she let out a little giggle .... Yua glared at Naomi , who gave her a smug look.

This was why kids were soo dangerous , because they were soo innocent , they could end people's careers in seconds .... And Max calling Yua aunty , was one such career ending moment .

Naomi was on cloud nine , the look on Yua's face when she was called Big Bad Aunty was priceless , she wished she had this moment recorded on camera , it would be funny even 20 years from now.

Rudra wanted no more nuisance , he decided to part ways with everyone and weak a mask. He went and bought two traditional masks from a nearby stall and put one on himself and one on little Max. He then said ” Guys I think I want to spend some alone time with Max , I have to get him to eat cotton candy , ill see you all later ”.

Naman was cool with it , soo he nodded , while Naomi and Yua were sad that he was going away , Naomi glared at Yua. Who ruined her time with Rudra , while Yua did not back off and glared right back.

If there was ever a chance of the two becoming friends , it was destroyed now. They both knew that they hated each others guts and liked Rudra .... The enmity was set in stone.

Rudra took Max to the cotton candy store , and bought him a giant , mix pink and blue candy.

Max happily ate his candy as he was having a great time , he then looke at Rudra and said ” Brother the blue candy is soo much better than the pink candy .... Betty is stupid , she likes pink candy more than blue candy ”.

Rudra was intrigued he asked ” Ohh , I agree , blue candy is the best .... But who is Betty? ”.

Max eating his candy said ” Betty is my girlfriend , I will marry her when I grow up ”.

Rudra was stunned for a moment , as dark thoughts entered his brain .... But then he remembered that max was a long way out from puberty and his tools were as good as useless for now.

He sighed in relief and said ” how did she become your girlfriend ?”.

Max looked at Rudra and said ” In school , she gives me grapes for lunch ”.

Rudra bursted laughing at the reply ... His little brother was soo easy to please , just give him anything sweet and he will shower you with love.
