A small animal appeared near Warrior Guild and searched for a striking redhaired man with a sleeping woman in his hands but all it could see was sweaty warriors rushing at each other while hollering.
The animal jumped back in surprise as he looked woman and men fighting until exhaustion and not evens topping even after being covered with bruises from head to toes. ''Wow. I completely forgot how crazy warriors are. I guess I slept way too long. The world changed quite a lot since I came here last time. Huh, look those people. Why are they trying to kill each other so furiously?''
While the creature jumped between fighting people and stared at its faces he sighed. ''Why are they so furious. Warriors are really scary when they concentrate only on one thing. Sigh. That woman is better. She has so much darkness inside but still chose to be realistic and righteous. How bothersome.''
A young woman captured the small animal by the neck and shook her head with a smile. ''Little one, I fear this is not a place for you to play around. Let me bring you out. Look how cute you are. If the blood of us dirty your fur it will take you a long time to clean it up. Go.'' She put the creature right out Warrior Guild and saw it reluctantly looking at the bushes. ''Are you afraid of something? Sigh. Such a weak creature must have many enemies. What about this. You can stay by my side and I will take you everywhere. I will join the competition soon and you can see many miraculous things.''
The creature rushed back and jumped right on her shoulder and purred while he cuddled around her neck. The young woman patted as softly as she could its small head and chuckled. ''Stay by my side until you don't find a place you want to stay. I will travel after the competition the whole lot so we might find a perfect home for you. Ok?''
The creature just purred and flatly laid on her shoulder while playing with a strand of her hair. ''You are actually lucky that I come to form a long line of dragon kinds. I can feel that you have some spirituality so I believe you might as well understand me. When you feel like talking to me just let me know. I am not the bad kind.''
The creature stopped playing with her hair and seriously only nodded. ''Fine. My name is Tia. I need to go back to train. You can just join in but stay away from the rest of the warriors. They are pretty brutal.''
The creature snuggled into her hair and nodded. While she walked back she saw few warriors looking her way as she had a beautiful animal on her shoulder that had beautiful pearl white fur and silvery eyes that shone in many different colours whenever strand of light hits its pupils. ''How cute.''
But none of them tried to take it away as some of them had their familiars that were animals with intelligence so they thought that this animal was her familiar. But if they knew how dangerous this creature is...
I might as wells stay by this child side. That woman mentioned something bout competition as well. Maybe I will see her there if not, I will search for her. I have time... His thought became deeper as he looked at the young woman fighting huge burly man with all her might. Her swift moves made his heart jump in excitement. No wonder they love to fights o much. If I got this edited only by watching who knows how exhilarated they are while fighting. Never mind. Let me enjoy this. At first, I didn't understand but now I can't stop looking. How strange...
Inside his room, Palcca looked at his sister and sighed. ''Eden, you are my sister and I will never give up on you. I hope you can give up on that foolish feeling. If you can't... the eternity is long, too long to be alone.''
He went to the main office and called all the Elders. ''I will go to the upper realm as there are few troublesome situations since I left. I really loved being here but I can't run away from my responsibilities as God. I am on verge to become Immortal. Now, before I leave, is teher anything I can do for this Guild. I might not come back for a couple of centuries so I need to know.''
The Elder shook his head. ''No. You gave us a new knowledge and a new way of understanding our powers. We will try to win this years competition. The prices are quite amazing. But the competitors are getting stronger as well. So our warriors are preparing without stopping. Don't worry about us. We can survive for a long time.''
Palcca smiled brightly. ''Of course, you can. Warrior guild is perfect for all those that have too much energy. And as it seems teher are many like that. If you win on competition it is fine. If you do not its fine as well. As long you don't harm cultivation progress it doesn't really matter. Our Extended Guild will be waiting for new arrivals. Work hard but think about one thing. They are cultivators as well. Not just some scary killing machines. You should never forget that.''
The Elders stood up vigorously and punched his shoulders. ''Don't always try to escape from your duties. You are Senior God. The higher you get the more duties you have. It is not a game.''
Placca chuckled and punched them back making them all steep back. ''I know. I came here to refresh a bit and to teach you all the new knowledge I learned from others. It's never too late to learn.''
Elders rose their eyebrows in wonder. ''Learn? You? How comes? When did that happen?''
Hearing their teasing tone Placca suddenly became red and just rolled his eyes. ''There is a person that made me realize many things. In future, there will be many changes. One is very important. Let everyone who passed the test at Grounding Fairy Village and that want to join us in our Guild. Those tests are proven and I can tell you that soon many guilds will hover around the testing place to steal cultivators as soon they are done testing. We need some young bloods as well. By the way, I saw two novices that wanted to apply and told them to come. Take them in.''
''I heard about those papers. I heard they are indestructible and can belong to owner only, no one can misuse them.'' One of the Elders voiced her words loud so they would hear her.
Palcca nodded. ''It is connected as it seems only to one person and if that person perishes the test parishes with it as well.''
Elders started discussing while Placca stepped back to his rooms and picked up the sleeping woman from his bed. ''Eden, let me show you the next level. You always wanted to see it.'' And disappeared.
Isaa suddenly felt something pressing on her heart and discomfort. Kendra hugged her tightly. ''He is gone to upper real. I feel the same as well since Cethin is gone. Let us just concentrate on destroying those creatures. Like that the time will pass faster. Won't it?''
Isaa hugged her back as they sat on top of the castle roof and looked at the sunset. ''With you even parting with my love seems to be less painful.''
She heard chuckle and warmth coming from Kendra's words. ''That is because we are sisters and I love you.''
