Chapter 547 - 547: Guest
He didn"t want to get something from Hun since he wanted to show that he wasn"t here with any ulterior motive.
"If you say so." Hun sighed. He wanted to do something for them, but they weren"t accepting anything.
"Let me show you another special place then." Hun didn"t stop trying hard and started taking Lucifer to a different place.
Even Lucifer was getting bored at this point. This city was good, but it wasn"t anything special at all. He felt like they were wasting time here.
"Step aside, you insect!"
"Hmm?" A loud shout coming from behind attracted his attention.
Curious, he turned around.
He could see a carriage racing in their direction. It was the carriage driver who was shouting at the beastkins in the middle of the road.
The person who was driving wasn"t a High Beast either since he had a horn protruding from his head n
The beastkins kept jumping out of the way of the carriage, trying to avoid getting hit. The carriage driver also had a whip in his hand, which he was using at the people on the streets.
Seeing such behavior at the citizens of the city, Lucifer couldn"t help but frown. Who were these people that were so arrogant?
He wasn"t alone. Hun was also upset at what was happening, and he decided to do something.
"I apologize for the sight you had to see. This doesn"t normally happen. Just wait here. I"ll go handle these people."
He jumped in the middle of the street as his body changed shape. His body also increased in size.
His hands turned into claws as his face started becoming longer. Show white hair started coming out all over his body.
The process ended almost instantly as the transformation was complete. Hun had finished changing into a Snow Wolf, which was similar to the one in the painting. His silver eyes looked even more beautiful as a wolf.
Seeing Hun in the middle of the road, the carriage driver"s face turned pale. He tried stopping the carriage, but it was too late. The Snow Wolf opened his mouth wide and released a freezing breath.
In front of the freezing wave, not only did the entire road turn to ice, but the wheel of the carriage also froze, refusing to move.
The carriage was forced to stop. The wolf started walking towards the carriage, taking calm steps.
The carriage driver started sweating seeing the wolf advance towards him.
He turned around. "Y-Young Master! A High Beast is blocking our path."
"Hmm? Is that so?" A calm voice came from inside the carriage, which didn"t sound intimidated.
The door of the carriage opened slowly, and someone stepped out.
"Grrrr!" Hun also stopped as he saw the person.
"Another High Beast?" Lucifer muttered, noticing the guy that had stepped out of the carriage.
The man appeared to be in his early twenties as well. He was dressed in lavish clothes, the most noticeable being the Golden Robe.
Hun changed shape, returning to his usual form. He glared at the blonde-haired man standing near the carriage.
"Who are you?! And why is your driver attacking our citizens!"
Hearing the words of Hun, Lucifer realized more things. It looked like this man wasn"t from this city. So he was a real High Beast that was from outside the city? That was intriguing.
The Golden Haired man looked at Hun, smirking. His deep golden eyes seemed as confident as always.
"I am from the Golden Family in Druci City. I am here as a guest of the Phoenix Clan. As for my driver hitting these lowly beasts, he was just trying to clear the road for us so we wouldn"t be late."
"Guest of Phoenix Clan? I don"t care who you"re a guest of. If you want to come to our city, you just treat the citizens with respect. And if you don"t know the meaning of respect, I"ll have to reach you some," Hun declared grimly.
"Oh? I had heard about this city"s beasts before, but I didn"t know they were so arrogant. If I weren"t in a hurry, I would"ve loved to see how you think you can teach me," the Golden-Haired man lazily said.
He glanced at the wheels of his carriage and casually waved his hand. A wave of fire appeared out of thin air, which melted all the ice, freeing the carriage.
"Maybe when I"m on my way back, we can exchange some pointers," he told Hun.
"Hmm?" He soon noticed Lucifer and his team in the back. "Three High Beasts together? Fascinating."
He shook his head and stepped inside the carriage. That carriage driver took the carriage, which moved past Hun, who didn"t stop them.
There was no need for unnecessary Conflict since he was sure that the driver got his message. The driver was still sweating after all.
Through the window, the golden-haired man observed Lucifer while he did the same. The carriage soon turned and disappeared.
"Can you believe these guys?" Hun walked back to Lucifer. "They had the gall to tell me that I can"t host you people because you"re from another city while they"re inviting guests of their own? Such hypocrisy!"
"They are here to meet the Phoenix Clan. That"s strange though. The Phoenix Clan is the most isolated clan. Strange. Whatever, it"s nothing to do with me. Come, I"ll show you a great place."
...
After taking a tour of the city for the rest of the day, Lucifer returned in the evening with Hun and the others.
Hun took Lucifer to their room. "Have a rest. You must be tired after such a long day. When it"s time for dinner, I"ll call you."
"Oh, that"s right. I forgot! How could I forget that you might not eat what we eat? You"re different. What do you usually eat? I"ll arrange for that?"
"What do you eat?" Lucifer asked in return. If these people ate frozen ice, then it was better for him to go hungry.
"We eat dishes made of snow. But most of you are incompatible with snow. Tell us what you want, I"ll arrange."
"It"s alright. You don"t have to worry about us. We don"t eat that often. We won"t be eating tonight. And if we did, we would have some arrangement."
"Are you sure?"
"Yep," Lucifer responded. It was better for him to go to a forest and find something to eat than take the risk of exposing themselves.
"If you say so. Tell us if you change your mind. I"ll be back later." Hun turned to leave.
"Oh right, I had one question. I wanted to ask you something." Lucifer stopped Hun.. It was time for him to throw the main question.
