260 My Beloved Part-1

Ryuu stared at the food that was placed in front of him, it tasted quite bland he did not like it, if the most recommended item was such bland he shuddered in fear thinking about those which were not good enough to be recommended.

Ryuu sighed as he contemplated whether he should take another bite or not after all he was paying for the food yet he was strong enough to leave without eating for months on end but at the same time he wished to check out local food but now he was regretting his decision.

Suddenly the waitress who delivered the food approached him as she spoke, "Excuse me Sir, but you are eating it wrongly."

Ryuu looked towards her with one of his brow as he spoke curiously, "Really so how do I eat it?"

The waitress blushed at seeing such a handsome patron yet she managed to maintain her professional air as she spoke, "Sir if I may." With that she borrowed Ryuu's spoon as she cut the Idli into smaller pieces before she mashed them a bit as she spoke, "First you cut the Idli into smaller pieces then mash it a bit cutting it makes it easier to mash the Idli then pour some of the 'Shambar Dal' a type of 'mixed vegetable lentil soup' then add some 'coconut chutney' to it mix the entire thing well then you may eat it.", she then handed the spoon to Ryuu who promptly took a bite of his breakfast but unlike last time his eyes widen as he felt as if bomb made up of flavor detonate on his tongue it was incredible tasty he then turned towards the waitress as he spoke, "Thank you for teaching me how to properly eat 'Idli' it is incredibly tasty so please send my compliment to the Chef on my behalf for creating such a savory and mouthwatering food."

The waitress had gone ramrod upon seeing his smile as she stuttered out, "W-we-well th-then thank you and enjoy yourself.", with that she hastily dashed away from Ryuu causing him to sigh, 'Even with my necklace it is getting difficult trying to keep people being attracted to me because of my looks, I fear that I need to wear a mask soon. Oh how I wish one day soon enough I will learn how to decrease how my look influences others.'

As happy Ryuu ate his breakfast his mind went back to the events that occurred a few days prior he so wanted to join the exploration team but unfortunately no matter how much he threw tantrum or how much he sulked it did not change the truth that the tomb was incredible dangerous to even mid Level Mystic Immortal Emperors let alone a puny mid Level Immortal like him, well the people who are exploring the tomb can easily keep him safe but his presence will surely interfere with their work, as such with heavy heart he decided to leave that place, that was a good few days ago as he currently found himself half way across the planet sitting inside a restaurant having breakfast.

As he finished his breakfast Ryuu left the restaurant after giving a generous tip to the waitress for teaching him how to eat 'Idli'

The City of Villinhuvado was located near a mountainous region famous for the various brands of coffee and a few teas which were cultivated here, Ryuu lazily walked around the city as he looked around the place taking in the sights of different culture and customs truly it was a mesmerizing sight.

'hmm I would like wearing some of the local attire but the 'dhoti' looks like a bit troublesome to deal with.'

Ryuu's attention was grabbed by the market where people were buying and selling various wares to Ryuu it seemed to be the rowdiest market ever seen but still the people greeted each other in a friendly manner, he could easily spot a cultivator every now and then but amongst all he seemed to be the one who stood out the most his snow white color skin with red hair stood in contrast to others who had black colored hair and their skin tone much darker side of the spectrum and most importantly his eyes after all who amongst them could boast having heterochromatic eyeswhile everyone else had black colored one or as close to black as possible.

Ryuu made his way towards one of the vendors an old lady who was selling various decorative wares and what not, he inspected the items carefully as he addressed the seller usig the name commonly used by the local people, "Amma, how much does this wind chime costs?"

The woman looked up towards him as she spoke to Ryuu it sounded like gibberish as such he spoke once again, yet he was unable to decipher what the woman spoke.

Suddenly a few people appeared by his side as one of them spoke, "Excuse me Sir, that old woman over there is from an indigenous tribe from our country she is speaking in her mother tongue, if you want to we will help to translate."

Ryuu spoke with a smile, "Thank you for your gracious help."

As he smiled at them the group broke into chatter of 'ohhhs', 'ahhhs' and 'Kyaaas', causing his eyes to twitch at that.

After he had successfully purchased the item which Ryuu had to pay rather forcefully as the old woman literally wanted to give him the item for free because of his looks calling him 'Child of Heaven', Ryuu was getting incredibly annoyed and frustrated at that as he left as a token of showing appreciation he shook each of their hands.

The group of five sighed dreamily as one of them quickly wrapped his hand with a handkerchief seeing him acting like that one of the female from her group stated, "Adi what are you doing?"

Adi send an annoyed look towards them as he spoke, "What if something dirties my hand after the great 'Child of Heaven' shook my hand, hmmm, and like an idiot like you has better idea."

The woman snorted as she spoke, "You fool, dirties my hand I am never going to wash it, I am going to seal it away forever."

Another laughed at that as he spoke, "My hand which touched the 'Child of Heaven' is going to become my family heirloom."

Then another began speaking as Ryuu who was a good few distance away from them heard everything clearly because of his high cultivation level he did not waste any time as he increased his speed and ran from that place as fast he could."

A few hours later a mentally exhausted Ryuu stood in front of 'Amma Coffee House' as he sighed, 'Well according to the locals it is the best place for some coffee and snacks not only that it is a 500 year old establishment, well let us see what they have to offer.'

A few minutes later Ryuu took a sip from his piping hot coffee cup as he let out a happy content sigh, 'Ahh this is life, so peaceful and quiet.'

"Excuse Child, is this seat empty.", a voice came from his side startling Ryuu, 'How did she appear so close to me before I felt here presence.'

Ryuu glanced and saw many of the seats empty, 'who is this woman, she can clearly seat anywhere she wants to but why is she…', Ryuu's internal musing was cut short when he felt a pulse of KI from the woman causing him to gulp, 'The woman is too strong for my level.', Ryuu promptly stood up as he gave polite bow as he spoke, "This Junior greets Senior, and Senior please feel free to occupy the seat it is empty."

The woman had a silver hair with a couple of blood red strands mixed with it, her azure eyes held a lot of power behind them she wore a purple color dress with a matching veil covering her face she was being of incredible beauty enough to give his sisters a run for their money and Ryuu could tell that she was smiling behind the veil, and he did not understand why but his heart skipped a beat.

The woman elegantly took a seat in front of Ryuu as she glanced at the menu as Ryuu resumed munching on the snacks placed in front of him, Ryuu was confused since the woman had arrived in front of him, Ryuu could not point his finger at it but he felt something different all of sudden, 'what is happening to me? Why my heartbeat has increased so much and why is my body heating up all of a sudden.' As such he was at a loss and he had no idea why.
