180 Incinerator (1/2)
The woman who had just arrived simply smiled as she spoke, ”Sister Yutsuko please we have been my sister for so long call me by my name.”
As the woman landed Ryuu greeted him, ”Greetings Senior.”
The woman glanced towards Ryuu as Tsuji stepped forward as she introduced Ryuu to her mother, ”Royal mother, I wish to introduce you to Daoist Ryuu he is the one who rescued us yesterday from the terrible ordeal.”
The woman's eyes widened in recognition as she spoke, ”Daoist Ryuu you have my gratitude for helping not only my daughters but also my future daughter-in-law, we are in your debt.”
Ryuu replied with a smile, ”Thank you for your kind words your Majesty but I was merely did what any other person would have done in my place.”
Katsumi joined them soon as she spoke, ”Academy Head I have already started the evacuation process and it will be over soon enough.”
Yutsuko turned towards the Empress as she spoke, ”Sister Tamafune let us proceed and check about the plant.”
Empress Tamafune turned towards her guards as she ordered them, ”Make sure you help the local authorities to evacuate and cordone off the area also make sure to prevent any form of mass panic.”, as she turned towards Yutsuko speaking in a much kinder tone, ”Sister as I am the highest level of authority on alchemy at the court at present I will be accompanying you.”
Yatsuko nodded at her with a smile as they swooped down to get a closer look at the plant, while others followed the others given out by their Empress leaving a few people including the princesses and Ryuu.
Tsuji turned towards Ryuu as she spoke with faux angry tone, ”Ryuu why did you not catch when I jumped towards your arms what would have happened if the poor weak me had slammed on the wall at full force.”
Ryuu deadpanned at her as he thought ''weak' if the likes of her is weak than what does it entail for the people beneath her cultivation level.', as such he replied back with an innocent smile, ”I am extremely sorry Senior but next time I would definitely catch you it would be bad if because of your recklessness the cultural heritage site got damaged.”
Tsuji had a tick mark on her forehead but before she could say anything Katsumi intervened, ”Junior Ryuu, it was amazing how you managed dodged the flying tackle from my elder sister, I thought you were concentrating a lot.”
Ryuu smiled sheepishly as he spoke, ”Well that can be attributed to my teacher actually, and in order for me to gain awareness to my surrounding my teacher would attack me randomly like while I was sleeping as such and eventually I build up awareness to sudden attacks. When Tsuji tried to tackle me my body moved on its own trying to evade the attack.”
Katsumi blinked owlishly at that as she spoke, ”It must be hard right.”
For a moment Ryuu's eyes glazed as he gave a demented giggle, ”Hard kukukuku, oh the word doesn't describe the feeling of getting thrown out of the while window sleeping, scared and having your cauldron blow on your face,…..”
As he spoke more and more he began taking a derange look scaring the sisters but he was brought up from his deranged behavior by the arrival of the two woman with grim look on their face as they were discussing something with a frown on their face.
Tsuji stepped forward as she asked, ”Is there something wrong?”
Tamafune frowned as she spoke, ”A s we feared the plant is none other than the dreaded 'Famine God's Lotus', not only that it is fully mature enough to release its spores any day now.”, she turned towards Ryuu as she spoke, ”Sister Yutsuko informed that you are a mid level Array master?”
Ryuu nodded at that as he spoke, ”Yes your Highness, is there anything you want to me help you with.”
Tamafune spoke with a stern visage, ”The currently the plant is so volatile that even a small jolt might cause it release its spores then we have to incinerate it, moreover the roots have to be removed entirely or else it will spawn again.”
