35 The King of Fa (2/2)

”It really is her.” The group of four all said in amazement.

This was a really weird question to ask. Who did not know this girl? Everyone knew her. Four years ago this girl was already at the Kudyara level, which is the first sublevel of the Kusakura level. This level was a full realm above the Pamamonya level the all five of them were at.

After four years one could only imagine what frightening level she had reached now. ”Why are you looking for her?” Nyasha suddenly asked.

Taku's expression sunk when he heard this question. He needed a pretty damn good reason in order to cover up his actual reason but he just did not have the time to come up with one. He did not want to disclose any information about his soul at the moment. Even though they were his teammates he was not ready to let such sensitive information out.

The four saw Taku's expression and did not ask any further.

”The girl you are looking for is very important person in the Ivory guard.” Nyasha started. ”Her status is something that the likes of us can touch. The team that she is a part of is in the Top 50 of the golden ranked squads. She was once invited to join a team in the top ten but she refused. She is the youngest person in all the gold ranking squads, she's rather cold and detached so if she is the person you want to find I suggest you just give up.”

”Yeah, this King shall give you some advice, she would not even be obliged to give me or Tadi face when we meet, and I am the son of a noble and Tadi is the disciple of Mbuya Nehanda. Even though my family's nobility is not high, we are still on top of chiefdoms. So you can imagine what type of status you would need to get her.”

Taku was dumbfounded by this situation. I only asked whether you knew her or not. Who said anything about getting with her?

”It is not like that.” Taku started. ”Just tell me how I can find her, and after that everything will explain itself.”

Nyasha shook his head. ”That is going to be hard to be honest. Apart from being part of the Ivory guard she is also a general in charge of an army. It's safe to say that she is forever busy, and is always in different locations. So finding her will be hard.”

”Oh well.”Taku shook his head in disappointment. ”I am sure that you guys have the Tohwe fruits. We should get going now.”

”We actually buried them...”Nyasha was the first to speak but was immediately cut off by Ranga.

”This King cannot accept this,” He fumed. ”I get that the higher ups told us that you are our new captain, but I am not convinced. What qualifications do you have to be the leader of this King?”

Taku was shocked by this. He was greatly surprised because he himself had forgotten about the issue and for Ranga to bring it up now and in such a manner, not only shocked Taku but the rest of the team.

”Don't disgrace yourself My Lord…”Tadi spoke with a sweet smile. ”You are 19 this year and you are at the second sub- level of the pamamonya level. You are considered quite talented, but… he still beat and killed the people who captured us. He showed that his battle power is no less than ours.”

”I am still not-” Ranga wanted to retort but was again cut off, only this time it was Taku. ”I actually have no interest in the leadership role. If any one of you wants it then you can discuss it between the four of you.” Taku had ambition buried deep within himself, but at the moment he had bigger fish to fry.

Tino then smiled wryly and spoke. ”It is not that simple. If you are appointed as leader by the higher-ups then no one in your team is allowed to oppose it and take your role away. It is either that person leaves the team or the leader goes and requests to step down from his role. So until then no matter what the King of fat may say, you are still our leader.”

Taku's expression went dull when he heard this. What kind of f*cked up system is this.

Ranga's expression on the other hand was very ugly. Not because of the law but because of Tino's other words. ”Who the f*ck are you calling me the king of fat?”

”You obviously.” Tino retorted. ”You keep calling yourself a king but you never tell us what you are the king of, so I could only guess by your appearance.”

”You f*cker!” Ranga was getting ready to attack when he was again punched by Tadi.

”Don't just randomly attack your teammates. As far as we are all concerned Tino has a point. King of what?”

Ranga stared blankly at Tadi for a minute before he smiled slyly and said. ”If I remember correctly, you did call me your King back when we were kids, so hey little brat, I am Tadi's king. If you have a problem with that, then you can seek out this King's beautiful wife.”

”You…” Both Tadi and Tino did not have anything to say. Tino was shocked because he hadn't realised that this fat guy's skin was so thick. Tadi on the other hand was just embarrassed. She had not thought that Ranga would remember such an insignificant thing.

Taku and Nyasha on the other hand were just speechless. Just what games were you people playing when you were children.

It was at this moment that Ranga was sent flying again by Tadi's kick.

Taku looked towards Nyasha and smiled wryly. ”At least as a team, we have the chemistry part down.”
