Chapter 365 - The City of ?? (2/2)
True-Spear who was nearby laughed as he spoke, ”Oh sister please do not misunderstand but he is being an excellent diplomat what better way to understand fellow warriors than having an honest fist fight without using our KI and look at his face in fact look at both their faces they are covered in their blood yet they are enjoying.”
Ryuu felt elated he was having the fist fight without using even an ounce of KI and he did not know why but it felt refreshing to him, he send a roundhouse kick towards his opponents head as he ducked making Ryuu's eyes to widen seeing the flexibility with which he ducked even with his hulking body but his opponent made the mistake of raising his head a bit as the left leg that was being curled back move like a whip as the kick connected making him stumble.
As he brawled against his opponent his mind went back to how it evolved into such, Ryuu and his group made their way to what seemed to be a city, a city that seemed to be made up from hill, in the midst of desert, another flash was noticed by them from the caves that were peaking out of the hill.
As they neared the city one of them spoke with a frown, ”Do you thing that whatever creature that would be present be intelligent enough for us to speak with.”
Ryuu frowned as he spoke, ”I hope so from whatever we have seen whoever had build it must be some intelligent creature though please do not take initiative to attack first, and we will say their reaction that act accordingly.”
The others nodded at that as they flew towards it when they were near the city the group descended only to come face to face with what seemed to be half human half scorpion like being.
The creatures looked intimidating as Ryuu cupped his hand as he spoke, ”Greetings we are travelers who are searching for shelter and direction may I inquire where we are.”
The strange beings kept staring at them without making any movement whatsoever but it looked as if they were waiting for someone or something, ”Do we atta…”
”No”, Ryuu's sharp and crisp voice stopped him from speaking they did not have to wait long before another of the scorpion person arrived Ryuu studied the person and found him to be not only stronger but it seemed as if the others treated him with respect which meant that person must be way up the totem pole.
”Who are people and why do you have people hiding a good distance away from the city?”
Ryuu grimaced inwardly at that as they had already found the rest of them as Ryuu spoke with a smile, ”Greetings my name is Ryuu, and we are travelers we stumbled upon your city and wish for shelter and for directions, although if I might be rude enough to inquire you of about your name”
The person tilted his head as he spoke, ”This city is meant for warriors if you are one then we would talk further if not then scram.”
Ryuu's brow furrowed as he spoke, ”And how do you determine if we are warrior or not?”
The man had a grin on his face as he spoke, ”Simply one of you fight with me bare fist without use of any weapon or using spiritual energy just us man to man brawl and if you impress me we will speak further, so who amongst you would have the honor of being pounded to the ground by me, just step forward.”
Ryuu knew that this person had issued a challenge and if they want entry into the city whose population is unknown there are two ways one fight against all of the citizens and hope that they win and second to respond to his challenge, fighting bare handed no more like a brawl with no use of KI after all from his aura that he is flexing he must be calling KI as the spiritual energy, now who amongst all of us would be a better choice.'
Ryuu did not have to think much as he once again heard the person speak, ”Ah so you are your people's representative a bit of a scrawny side are you of well I hope you entertain me well.”
Ryuu was taken aback by his speech, 'Is he speaking to me?', as he turned around he found all his teammates had taken a few steps back leaving in the front for slaughter.
Ryuu's brow twitched as he greeted his teeth, 'Those mongrels are once again making me do something against my wish, oh next time I will not help this idiots.', Ryuu's shoulder shagged briefly before he stood tall and straight facing his 9 foot tall opponent while the rest surrounded them making a circle as both the person and Ryuu became ready to face each other.
