255 A day in Aglon (1/2)

Ryuu walked through the city of Aglon, he was wearing his usual attire, the necklace gifted by his teacher all those years ago proudly displayed on his neck even after it was activated it still turned a few heads as some people glanced towards him mostly females, he sighed hard at that, 'This is the reason I like staying inside Ayindril, I hate such shallow minded people.', is face scrunched up in disgust.

Ryuu entered a restaurant as he thought, 'Well at least I will have something to eat after being offered that pig stool as food the last few days.'

He took a seat inside the restaurant as his mind wandered to the talk he had with his sister a few hours ago,

Antariskh sat as she held Ryuu close to her as she spoke with a frown, ”So you were unable to find out about the 'The Project'?”

Ryuu sighed as he spoke, ”It is frustrating, and no matter what I do I still am not able to learn about 'The Project', the only one who knows about it is the Head of the Family the school and the Overseer, but I was able to learn that whatever it is it will be unveiled within a week.”

Antariskh played with Ryuu's hair as she spoke, ”hmmm so what will you do Ryuu, will you act against them now or wait for the event to unfold.”

Ryuu fell deep in thought, 'Well I can have them captured as well as interrogated but I am kind of curious as well as want to witness the 'Project' being unveiled, secondly we cannot attack someone who has not committed any 'crime' yet after all they can claim that all the evidence was planted by some people and they can portray us a tyrants but if we manage to catch them with their hands inside a cookie jar things will be different it will also cause great harm to their reputation after that we can grant them exemplary punishment with ease, also I want to relish the feeling of despair when the thing they planned and coveted for all those years ago fall to ruins just on their eve of success.”

Antariskh deadpanned at that as she thought, 'It seems you are spending too much time with 3rd sister and 3rd mother, he started to learn weird things.'

Antariskh she spoke with a small smile on her face, ”Well then I will grant your wish o brother of mine.”, although inwardly she sighed, 'foolish brother you should have acted before after all prevention is better than cure, in order to exact justice for their wrong doings you forgot this very important lesson it seems, oh well you will learn something eventually.'

Antariksh: ”Well you did a good job Ryuu, searching for their secrets by infiltrating them I am proud of you.”

Ryuu blushed at the praise as he spoke, ”It was nothing worthy of praising at all.”

Antariskh nodded at that as she spoke, ”Well but still it was trying for you, like the time when the drunk almost peed on top of the bush you are hiding.”

Ryuu's face turned green as he spoke, ”emend as a drink.”

The waiter jotted down the order as he gave a bit of uneasy glance at him but he pushed it back to his mind after all cultivators were weird beings, after all no normal person would order so many different items when they are dining by themselves, but it was still startling to see someone who is so handsome and fit would want to eat so much, he spoke in a professional tone, ”Sir, would you like alcoholic or non-alcoholic drink?”

Ryuu contemplated on that for a few seconds, 'Well a few years ago I might have said no but now I like the taste of alcohol, so..', ”What kind of alcoholic drink do you recommend?”

The waiter replied with a smile, ”Sir, we have just received a shipment of 50 years old 'Thunder Frost Wine'.”

Ryuu shrugged as he spoke, ”Well then get me a bottle of it then?”

The waiter then spoke with the same smile plastered on his face, ”Is there anything you want Sir?”

Ryuu:”No”, with that the waiter simply left while Ryuu sat there as he took out a book from inside his space rig and began reading it.
