Chapter 167 167: Garden Of Spiritual Flowers

Name:The Human Giant Author:


In the distance and hidden amongst the dozens of types of spiritual energies was a healthy red flower that waved in the air as if there was the wind. Even amongst the tens of other spiritual energies moving about Yoze was able instantly to recognize this flower to be Regi's real spiritual energy.

What made Yoze both surprised and concerned was the fact that there were similar spiritual flowers of all kinds surrounding Regi's spiritual energy creating a beautiful garden of spiritual energy flowers.

The colors of these spiritual energy flowers ranged in color, size, and type but something that tied them all in common was the fact that they all peacefully swayed in the air in harmony.

After managing to track down Regi's spiritual energy, Yoze looked in his direction to make note of his current body and puppet. Once he had gotten a good look at the puppet's appearance he also turned his gaze to identify who were the people that had abnormally similar spiritual energies.

After he had gotten a good look, Yoze began to make note of what he noticed and couldn't help but feel that things were becoming more absurd. From what he noticed Regi's current body had taken on the appearance of a blonde young man who looked to be in his early twenties.

The clothes that he wore were similar to a priest's uniform with some minor changes such as the inclusion of various flowers and extra colorful fabric. Even though Regi seemed engrossed in the conversation his group was having Yoze couldn't help but more the fact that he would frequently touch the flowers of the people beside him.

The young men and women who were beside Regi seemed equally as engrossed in their conversation and also were wearing similar outfits as Regi with some minor differences. Yet, just like Regi, they frequently touched the flowers embroidered into the colorful fabric of the other uniforms.

"Their spiritual energies are too similar to Regi's to be a coincidence but it doesn't look like they are his puppets. Even though they are talking about the same topic and are doing similar things I can see that they each seem to be different people." Yoze's mind turned towards the multiple puppets dressed in black robes that Regi had sent to him and couldn't help but see the stark difference between the two.

Back then Regi's puppets were incredibly stiff and could not act independently. Once one started looking for oddities in their appearance and actions it became obvious that they were human puppets.

Yet these people that were around Regi now were the complete opposite. They each had vibrant expressions and different habits and personalities which stood in stark contrast to the old puppets.

Even now that he was looking for any strange actions or speech patterns that they shared to see if they were being controlled he didn't find many clues. The only thing he was able to gather was their strange obsession with someone called the Flower Lord, their habit of touching flowers, and their spiritual energies being nearly identical.

But that wasn't enough for Yoze to feel comfortable with labeling them as simple puppets since he felt that there was more to this mysterious feeling of danger he was sensing. Even though he was standing right in front of Regi the feeling of danger didn't intensify as he got closer to either of Regi's bodies.

So far the only time this feeling of danger has grown was the moment he stepped inside the town which gave him the feeling that the danger that he might be sending might not be connected to Regi.

As Yoze was secretly observing Regi's new body he secretly listened in on their conversation in hopes of gathering more important information to solve why he was feeling in danger.

"Father Jackie has been upset lately since we haven't been getting as many offerings as last year. We should think of something so that we can cheer him up because the Holy Flower Lord's servants shouldn't be upset with the lord's presence." A young blonde woman let out a heavy sigh as she mentioned the plight of Father Jackie.

"That is a good idea but how are we going to raise the funds?" One of the men in the group suddenly perked up upon hearing the blonde woman's idea.

"I have an idea we can throw a large event for the town that anybody can come to. The event should be grand and be covered in flowers that way Father Jackie will be happy no matter what. But of course, it would be best if people would be gracious enough to offer some donations during the event, making Father Jackie even happier." Regi suddenly spoke up with confidence as he offered his idea to cheer up Father Jackie.

"Regi once planned another event. What is he planning?" As Yoze listened to Regi's conversation his mind raced as he tried to figure out the significance of that event to his family's safety.

Unfortunately, before he was able to listen for further details of this event he heard Regi's old voice from his old body come out of the carriage to tell Jewel the directions of his party.

"We should get a move on since the party is starting in an hour. Just follow this road and make a turn to the left once you get to the bakery."

The moment Jewel heard Regi's direction she began to guide the carriage through the crowds of people forcing Yoze to leave and go further and further away from Regi's new body. As he followed alongside the carriage and went deeper into the town Yoze's sense of danger rapidly became more intense.

"What is giving me such a dangerous sensation and why does it seem that Regi is directly guiding us straight toward the danger."

"Is he leading us to a trap?" Yoze's mind raced as he tried to pinpoint the source of the danger he was sensing before he finally locked onto it.
