Chapter 134: To Devour (2/2)

Kadyn frowned and looked at the bird. Then he took a deep breath and said, ”I have drawn a lottery and the thing that came out was an egg — yeah, the same egg about which we are talking right now.” Kadyn said. Then he looked at the bird. ”Now it's your turn.”

”What the hell?” the bird opened her tiny eyes wide and said in anger. ”Are you fucking with me?”

”Uh,” Kadyn looked at the bird and denied. ”No,” then went on. ”I have told you the truth, and if you want to know more you have to become an employee of the shop. Now, it's your turn.”

The room fell into pin-drop silence. The sound of Kadyn's breathing could be heard. He looked at the beautiful bird and said. ”Hey, come on. Tell me why that egg was with the dragon and she went on a rampage after losing it? Did your ancestor give the task of protecting you to her or something like that? Hmm, it seems a nice theory.”

”Devour, she wanted to devour me.”

”What?” Kadyn looked confused. Why the heck a dragon wanted to devour an egg of a sparrow? But then again this sparrow was no joke. ”Why did she want to devour you? At least give me a full explanation.”

”Humph,” the bird snorted and then said. ”At least my explanation makes sense, but what about you? Your explanation is like a man without a head or leg. If you want to know more then tell me more about that lottery thing you are talking about.”

Kadyn looked at the bird for a second and then closed his eyes without speaking anything.

The bird thought that he was just acting and would ask again like a curious child. Two minutes, three minutes, five minutes…. Ten minutes went by, but Kadyn showed no sign of opening his eyes.

”The hell!” the bird cursed. ”Hey, hey, are you listening?”

No reply.

”Damn, the bastard has fallen asleep!” the bird fluttered her wings in frustration, but Kadyn showed no sign of awakening. ”Just you wait. I will make you spill everything sooner or later.

Then muttered in a voice that only she could hear. ”He has the aura of the Inheritor, but it is somewhat different from other inheritors. If I hadn't observed him closely, I would have taken him as an ordinary inheritor. The shop artefact is also strange, I can barely exit and enter inside. Now he talked about some lottery thing. Hmm, mysterious, very mysterious.” Then she vanished without a trace.
