55 The Be (1/2)

Long Yu was awoke from hunger, when he woke up he saw Veronica was busy chatting with the other women in the room, he felt a strange sense of déjà vu he had witnessed the same thing occur back in forest biome, and he idly wondered do the girls become friend so fast.

He shrugged and then he searched in his backpack, he had still a few meat jerky created by Tina from those 'Bone Armored Deer', he took a bite from it as he and drank orange juice from his bottle, a sudden thought went through his mind,' wouldn't it be nice if mommy and me went on an adventure together', a small smile went through his face normally his sisters usually tease him calling him momma's boy but he doesn't mind at all, he knows how much his mother loves and he loves her too and not only that his mommy always makes him feel safe as if no matter how tough it may seem he can overcome it as long as his mother is with him.

Koyuki: ”Child did you finish your meal, but you know that it is rude to not share or ask a lady if she needs something.”

Long Yu: ”You are a cultivator get your own food and also you are an adult and asking a child to share.” he gave a long sigh and shook his head as if he was disappointed by her.

Koyuki's brow twitched in anger, and she scowled when she heard Ryofu snickering at her.

Long Yu: ”I have wanted to ask you both something I hope you two do not take it personally.”

Ryofu and Koyuki both nodded at her to continue.

Long Yu: ”Well you two seem to be quite familiar with each other, do you belong to the same sect?”

Ryofu: ”Well we are rivals of some short, and no we do not belong to the same sect, but our sects are close you can say we from sister sects. Koyuki's sect ”Frozen Maiden Sect”, and my ”Venerable Sect” are quite close as the founders of our sects were sworn brother and sister.”

Ayesha: ”So do you also work for 'Shangri-La Pavilion', like Sister Veronica.”

Long Yu: ”No I do not work there but my grandmother does. So what is it like to be in a sect?”, asked a curious Long Yu as he stood up from his place and went and sat near them.

Helen: ”A sect has many students so you may gain many friends but at the same time it can be difficult because in a sect only those who have talent thrive but those who are untalented are pushed aside thus it gives rise to rivalry enmity and what not, but it is also ideal environment to grow as you have many who you can compare to, challenge against and even fight. But the main thing about any sect is because we have many members of the sects we can have plenty of people whom you can consult and ask for help whenever you require. Why are asking little brother, do you want to join any sect? Well I would regret to inform you but ours only accepts females, if you want to join you have to speak with sister Ryofu.”

Long Yu liked when people gave him complete and honest answers like Helen did, she gave him a short yet both the pros and cons were mentioned.

Long Yu: ”No big sister Helen, I was merely curious about sect life nothing more nothing less.”

The girls grimaced at that especially Ryofu, who had been ordered to lure Long Yu to join as Kyouki belonged to sister sect she was ordered to help her, both of them inwardly cursed Helen, who had very bad habit of speaking unnecessary things. They inwardly wondered the carnage that might take place outside as soon as he steps out of here, his family works from Shangri-La and from what they have heard till now and pieced together Long Yu's family is very high up in command chain of Shangri-la as the team send with him is merely his bodyguard, they felt a cold shiver running down their spine thinking about someone foolish enough to anger them aseveryone knows to never be on Shangri-la's bad side, they have heard stories that even Empires which existed for thousands of years like overlords were crushed within in weeks time because they made an enemy out of Shangri-la Pavilion, a gigantic organization that has existed for time immemorial.

He casually glanced at the clock it was still more that 12 hours left and he grimaced at that, he was bored and had nothing to do.

Kyouki: ”Your space bag is interesting looking, and if I am not mistaken it looks like a bear cub.”
