Chapter 182: Unfavorable Change

"Master Sunaya, do you know what you are talking about? Shaman King Mountain is not just a mountain, it's a symbol of authority in northern lands of the continent. It's the ancestral land of my master and Kourin family has a special sentiment associated with it and you are telling me to inform them to abandon their home"shouted Oliver as he breath heavily as he painfully started to cough.

Cough cough cough

Seeing Oliver's condition Alice tried to comfort him. But, Sunaya narrowed his eyes with no change in his tone of speaking, it was harsh as before.

"That place will be destroyed as soon as the seal under the mountain is released and I have already told you about Chaos champion, Vali character. So, I suggest to migrate the entire population within the range of thirty kilometres with the peoples associated with Shaman King Mountain Sect to save them from getting hunted by Vali.

He may be in the weakened state after losing most of his power of faith but he possesses physical strength of peak Magic Emperor, ordinary people will just offer their lives to butcher with a way to survive from the strike of his knife."

Sunaya looked at Oliver with a serious expression.

"I know that place has a significant role in your life but change is the nature of the materialistic world and it always happens. Sometimes the changes favour us, sometimes they don't. If I don't release the seal; Vali's mind and body will not be purified and if among us three, he survives. It will be a catastrophic disaster for the entire world or may be thefuture of the whole universe and every life within it."

Hearing that entire room become silent and looked at Oliver who had a sad expression on his face. He had never thought that just some months before the near end of his life, he would witness the destruction of his ancestral land. It's the only thing, which connects him to his past, he had spent his childhood there with his two brothers and began his journey of sword path and reached his current status in life. But thinking about the being who is sealed below the Shaman King Mountain and his stubbornness can cost the life of not only that of his family but of the entire continent and world. He tried to calm himself down and after some moments looked at Sunaya with determination.

"I will do as Master Sunaya, you have instructed. I will reach out to them within the end of this day."

Sunaya nodded and looked at Daoma.

"Now, the main reason I have come to see you Daoma, I need some world tree blessed water."

"Hmmm.. what do you need that for?"

"About that.."Sumaya thought for a moment and smiled.

"I am planning to resurrect a ancient divine beasts"

Jai and Esabella looked at each other and then listened to Sunaya carefully. As a member of the magic beast race and Supreme Dragon Clan, Jai is especially interested in knowing about the phoenix egg. Esabella was also interested as her bloodline is that of an ancient fire dragon.

"Ah! Are you talking about the phoenix egg possessed by the formal royal family of Alfrine Kingdom."

"Yes, It's already a dead egg with no life force left inside of it and it's flames are also about to die out. So, I plan to kick start the life inside the egg by using the vast life force inside the world tree blessed water."said Sunaya.

Daoma looked at his master with keen eyes."That fire phoenix must be really special if you are willing to take action personally to revive it's life force."

Sunaya nodded"It really is special that's why I need Zebel and your help to revive the life force. Only his divine magic art has the ability to stabilize the flow of life force inside the egg and not allowed the life energy to overflow while you can analyse and copy the nature of his law to quicken the process by using your divine magic art; not to mention your temporary cultivation is higher than his current cultivation."

Hearing that Daoma checked the current cultivation of Zebel and found out that, he was only at peak of magic Commander and it's still unstable while his current cultivation is temporarily at peak magic lord. After his body was reconstructed by Dai Yusa, he had lent him some of his power allowing Daoma to attain cultivation of the peak of the magic king. After someday it will fall down even further.

Morrigan who was also listening to Sunaya and Daoma conversation was attracted, when they mentioned the world tree blessed water in their conversation.

"How much do you need? I currently only have ten litres with me. If you want more, we first have to visit my laboratory."

Morrigan eyebrows twitched upon listening to Daoma reply and almost wanted to cry.

'I have to use my entire life savings to buy three drops of world tree blessed water and these guys are playing to use such a divine item to revive some dead bird. This is a waste of natural resources, maybe these guys are the reason why Kai is such a wasteful person.'

"Yes, that will be more than enough. Let's go. I don't know then my memories will destabilize again and forget everything. So, let's hurry."

Hearing that Daoma and Zebel looked at each other and stood up to follow Sunaya.

Jai and Esabella also looked at them and stood up.

"Master Sunaya, can you also take us with you. We would like to witness the rebirth of the phoenix with our own eyes."

Sunaya through for a moment and nodded

"The egg is currently inside the treasury chamber of Buraford Kingdom. So, I only have one request that you don't cause too much commotion and let the guards outside notice something abnormal is going on inside the treasury chamber. If you guys promise to stay silent I don't mind if you tag along."

"We promise,"said Jai and Esabella in union and looked at others.

"Anybody else wants to come?"

Alina, Morrigan, Alice and Oliver looked at each other.

Alina and Morrigan walked forward.

"We are also coming, Master Kai is going to return to Buraford Kingdom after someday. So we don't mind reaching there first and adapt with the surroundings. Aside from that it will be a rare chance to witness the resurrection of a divine beast"said Alina.

Morrigan nodded to show her willingness.

Sunaya looked at Alice and Oliver"You two are not going. I can understand that Oliver has work left to do, what about you Alice? Are you not coming?"

Alice shakes her head"I already have my plans and don't want to change it."

Sunaya mysteriously smiled and used mind transmission to send a message to Alice.

"I know you have a date fixed with Kai today. So, I would disturb you further. Enjoy your time together, I am taking these disturbing elements with me. Until you return to Buraford Kingdom, he is all yours and if you want to cross that line.. well, it's up to you."

Alice blushed upon receiving Sumaya's message while they had already walked out of the room and standing in the courtyard and Alice hurriedly followed them.

Sunaya used his power and opened a temporary space portal connecting the courtyard with the treasury. Esabella and Alina were surprised and it was the first time they have witnessed someone to do something like this before their eyes.

As one by one they entered the portal and left.

Before leaving Sunaya waved his hand towards Alice who was standing beside Oliver with a bright smile and entered the portal as it disappeared like nothing was there.

Oliver looked at Alice"Did master Sunaya tell you something through magic transmission before he left?"

Alice blushed in response with a troubled expression.

Seeing Alice's reaction Oliver smiled,"Fine, I will not pursue it further. Do me a favor, if you find Kai tell him to come and meet me before he leaves the academy tomorrow. I have a gift for him."

As he turned around and left.

Alice also looked at the empty courtyard for a moment and left. She is planning to visit her dormitory in inner court to talk with Miss Delfonia and cook some food personally for Kai and with a joyful expression, She left.

[Buraford Kingdom, Royal treasury]

A rift in the space occurred and Daoma, Zebel, Morrigan, Esabella, Alina and Jai entered the chamber.

The entire chamber covered a area of 150*200meters with a height of twelve meter. The walls of the treasury were reinforced by the use of rank 6runes with fire torches lighting up the entire room.

The most astonishing thing, Esabella, Alina and Morrigan was that the entire treasury was empty with a giant oval shaped red egg of about five meter height placed in the middle with burning golden sparks of flames surrounding its surface.

"Where is all the gold? Why is it so empty? Did they shift all the gold to somewhere else to place this egg here"asked Alina.

Jai shook his head with bitter expression

"The treasury was already in this condition half a month ago. All the money has been sent to improve the infrastructure and military leaving nothing to later use. The entire Buraford Kingdom is currently running on the money earned by liquefaction of magic stone and magic crystals from Kai's personal pocket. According to my sister Behemoon the treasury will be overflowing after two months due to the economic reforms and new tax policy."

Esabella can't believe what she is hearing. According to what Jai had said. Entire Buraford Kingdom is bankrupt with no money to send and economic conditions have still not returned to normal and will take another two months to return to normal. The more amazing thing was that all employees and project are getting funded by from Kai personal pocket. Meaning Kai wealth surpasses the revenue generated by the entire Buraford Kingdom.
