66 Wojownik Cienia (2/2)

Their excursion was a failure not only Ryuu aka Long Yu was incapacitated but all the ruckus they caused was bound to draw some attention what they did not know that 'Wojownik Cienia' had already erected a barrier preventing them from being discovered. As such they retreated back to their hideout as they tried to nurse back Long Yu into consciousness.

Kyouki and her group sat the farthest from Long Yu as they kept an eye on him all the time like he was some ticking time bomb that could erupt any moments time, Ryofu who was sitting next to Kyouki was still shivering from fear and after a long silence she could not help but blurt out, ”What is he? What kind of creature is he?”

At that everyone stopped as the gazed at Ryofu although some were angry at Ryofu for referring to Long Yu as an creature they themselves deep down in their were terrified of Long Yu.

Tina took a deep breath as she replied, ”Last time I checked Long Yu is a human. I know you are terrified of him and to speak the truth so are many of us, but he is our teammate who has constantly saved our lives my life was saved by him. A child pushed me and took the full brunt of a beast's attack if it was not for him not only me but all of the Shadow Wolves would be dead. I think the same goes for you all so please do not call him a creature at least, no matter how much strong he might look at the end he is still a child just think how much hurt will he feel if he hears you all now.”

Rong Niu: ”I think he might have some kind of special body or may be even the fabled Divine Body, but to tell you the truth he kind of scared me this time his outburst was even greater than when he was pissed off at the Ape Prince at the forest biome, on top of that the way the fire reacted to him for a moment I felt as if I saw the reunion of long lost lovers, do you think he has gained insight in the Dao of Fire.”

Ruth replied as he scratched his chin, ”May be he has who knows but it is not our duty to try prying other peoples secret.”

Kyouki: ”What of his family? You guys are working together so must know about his family right.”

Bashista took a deep breath before he replied, ”We work for Shangri-La pavilion, as for Long Yu just the day before we entered this ruins we were called by the branch head, he informed us of an addition to our group a relative of some one very high up in the command chain of Shangri-La, that was the first time we met Long Yu, his grandmother is named Long Mei, the arrogant branch head looked as if he was prostrating in front of her out of reverence yet she did not paid any hid to him. This is what we know about him and his family.”, truly a puzzle they wanted to but did try to solve out of fear.

Soon a groan reached their ears, ”Mommy not so early let me sleep, I cannot run anymore.”,

Tina quickly went to Long Yu's side as he woke up groggily he blinked rapidly as he tried to adjust to the surrounding light. He looked confused as he eyed them carefully as the memories of last half month came rushing to him, he rubbed his temples as he suffering from a terrible headache, and as the events of the day finally came to his mind he bolted upright, ”Ah what of those two person we rescued and did someone got hold of the scum of a woman? And more importantly why are we back in the hideout. ”

Everyone looked at each other before Veronica volunteered herself to break the news to Long Yu.
