Chapter 27
Master (2)
After they had left, words carried throughout the whole of the Rain Clan and even the current Emperor wanted to meet this little girl, that seemed to know so much and gain such praise.
Even a few days later, news was still travelling around about her, when the Imperial Concubine returned from the Hydra Clan. When she heard this news, she had wondered for some time about her and started to really think that the earth trembling and the ‘powerful person’ could really be this girl…Having had received information from the Hydra Clan, she had spent the rest of the return trip trying to come up with a plan to find evidence that this girl might indeed be the ‘powerful person’. But, she wouldn’t have known how to find her!
Having not heard that this girl, that everyone in the Rain Clan spoke of, hadn’t made a big commotion about invisibility, she had been unsure. Although, as she heard more and more of what this girl had taught in front of the tavern, the Imperial Concubine became determined that it was the same girl that was at the Hydra Clan! What she couldn’t work out was, how she had gotten here so quickly! As it was, at a certain time, they had to make a short detour because of some crazed villagers talking about the end of the world!
But, as the days went on, no one could find the little girl. In fact, many of the people got really upset and angry with this "Switch" follower and they started to say that he had kidnapped their girl!
This "girl", just recently went into secluded cultivation and won"t be coming back for some time!
One Year Later
Anonym walked out of her secluded part of the cave and stretched. She looked around to see Switch looking at her from a chair.
In this year, he had seen her three times, two times she had given him pills to give to Mark and two times he had given her food to eat and more materials, not including her freedom elixir.
She had changed from cultivating alchemy, half way through the one year in seclusion, to again cultivate Power and then Strength. Now that she had enhanced both Power and Proficiency to her liking, she was happy to cultivate talents instead now.
Her growth was obvious to Switch, as she now looked older, she looked closer to a thirteen-year-old instead of a twelve-year-old. She had more curves now and her hair was longer. Her face still held a bit of baby fat but had more of an older look then it had before. Her body looked lean but toned, which already looked quite nice because it was obvious that she was more athletic and had less fat on her body then the average girl.
Switch stared at her, as she sat leisurely on another chair beside his and asked what he was doing.
Holding up a book, he asked, "Was this you too?"
The book was another of the three legend books, that were still being read through out today on Roneglaise. Switch had finished the other two books months beforehand, but some time ago, when he had seen Mark, he was told that there was book about another legend that he hadn’t read yet.
She nodded casually and looked at him like a little kitten...With this look, Switch frowned. He was starting to get used to what she wanted and how she looked like when she wanted it.
He was silent for too long and she said, "Please! You said that I had to wait a year! I waited!"
Sighing, he clicked his fingers and a cup appeared in front of her. He watched her sniff it and then have a tiny sip and he sighed once again. This little runt didn"t trust him as much since that last time she came out of secluded cultivation. Every time he made a cup for her now, she would always check it beforehand.
Before he could think further, she held the cup out to him again. Shocked, he saw that it was empty, "You can"t drink like that! It"s bad for you!"
Anonym didn"t move her hand and shrugged, "I don"t think I"m wasting time by drinking it when it makes me happy. If you won"t give it to me now, I"ll go out and get it myself."
She was going to drink with or without him...How cruel! He felt like he had no choice but to fill in her cup up again, with another click of his fingers.
While Anonym relaxed a while longer, Mark came from the entrance of the cave. "Great Master Belwin! You"re back from seclusion?"
"Mmm." Was all the reply he got.
Mark went to his knees in front of her and bowed deeply, "Great Master Belwin, I cultivated all of the first book of invisibility! And then with your help of the pills and ideas, I was also able to continue to cultivate the second book! I"m very grateful for your helping hand and give my thanks."
Anonym frowned at his speech but still liked that her slave was very well behaved by kneeling to her. "Good, good."
Switch chuckled, he was certain that Mark worshiped Anonym as a G.o.ddess. But when he looked at them, he couldn"t help but laugh! This ‘G.o.ddess’ was sitting with her legs dangling over the side of the chair and was eating a chicken wing, without being lady like at all!
Mark didn"t care for her posture, he was sure in his heart, that this was indeed the "Great Master Belwin"!
He has already decided to become absolutely devoted to this person!
“May this servant know what is Great Master Belwin’s next plan?” Mark asked.
Anonym frowned at his fawning speech again, and said, “I want to have some fun. Now that my Proficiently has improved with my Power, I can focus on cultivating talents in my next seclusion. Since I have already figured out what those talents will be, I will have an outing and go back into seclusion.”
Mark smiled, he just knew this person will only grow more powerful! “May this servant join you on your outing, Great Master Belwin?”
“Sure, we all need to get out, right Switch?”
Switch was happy she remembered him, “Yeah.”
After Switch checked on Presley, that wouldn’t leave his treasure’s, they left and walked towards the Rain Clan.
