He came up a few steps forward and with a smile on her face Kendra snapped her fingers and let him pa.s.s the s.h.i.+eld, but only him. As he walked straight towards Guardian Fairy Sect people started whispering and pointing at him. ""Impossible. No is that carzy...""
""I think he is.""
""Is he going up to the Grounding fairy Sect like others or maybe someone else?""
""No, look how he stares at them. It seems he really plans to go upstairs.""
""Whoah, he must real lunatic. Let"s stay away from these people as much as possible.""
""Stay away, stay away... I say that as well...""
Few people knew that man from before and stopped him. ""Kenny, stop as long you can. They are not simple sect as before. I fear that your guild will bite hard stone today. If you make them angry...""
Kenny just smirked. ""I have Headmaster backing me up. I am just going up to see what is everyone buzzing about. Spirit fruits and stuff.""
They shook their heads. ""Do what you want, but don"t make them angry. They seem quite reasonable people and up till now they never killed anyone, but you never know when they will bare their fangs.""
Kenny smirked and just waved his hand. ""Don"t waste my precious time. You tale care bout your own life, don"t bother with me."" He rose again his head and then walked a few more steps up until the end of the long line of people that wanted to exchange things with Kendra.
Luckily for him, the trades went swiftly. People had many things that wanted to get rid of, stuff they never knew use off or old broken scrolls and plats from times before the Great War. Kendra would just ask a couple of questions, glance at it and if she liked it, she would randomly summon a fruit.
Some got more, some get less. But all got something. They were happy to get such precious things and stored it right away for later use.
Behind him was completely empty as everyone waited for things to happen as soon he arrived in front of Kendra. With unusual patience, he walked step by step higher and higher, until he didn"t step safely in front of a most beautiful woman he ever saw in his long life.
With arrogance he stood in front of her and coldly looked at the people that sat calmly next to her and spoke with each other, completely ignoring him. Only Isaa calmly sat there and looked at him while she sipped on one of those famous beverages. The smell was killing him so he used his ice ability to freeze his nostrils.
Unfortunately, the spiritual power of these fruits could be even tasted in the air so he had the wish to close the mouth as well but he had to speak. With unusually high voice he started speaking...""h.e.l.lo..."" But saw that no matter what he could still somehow smell the fruits so he just opened his nostrils again and just concentrated at what he wanted to say, trying to breathe as less as possible.
Seeing him struggle many cultivators nodded. ""they were sitting right next to them, it is really hard not to get wild and attack them just for a small bit or small sip. But they had good control.
He concentrated deeper and then looked at Kendra. ""My name is Kenny and I sent by Illo. He asked if you want to exchange the spirit fruits with few things we don"t need.""
Kendra for second narrowed her eyes but nodded with a calm expression. ""If its something we might be able to use, or we might need the trade might happen."" She said so many times might just to distance herself in case something they brought was not at her taste.
He took a few boxes out his s.p.a.ce bag and with an ugly smile pointed at them. ""This is rare speed bird egg. It can travel between realms. Its amazing messenger. That is a rare purple fox with red paws. She can help you find spirit stones or spirit veins in any world. next one is dragon egg. We are not sure is it alive or not. Next one is something we never saw before. A strange creature that our guild caught while ago.""
As he explained he opened one box after another and showed it to her. Kendra just looked at open boxes and saw weak small fox half dead lying in a cage and pointed at it. ""What happened with the fox?""
Kenny shrugged. ""to bring her here we put her into s.p.a.ce bag. there is only little to no air. Of course, she almost choked to death. So any of it interested?""
She knew he has something in his mind so she shrugged. ""It might or it might not be. What is your question?""
He suddenly smiled brightly. ""We want you to marry Illo.""
Everyone gasped and Headmaster slowly lowered the scroll and blinked at him like he completely lost his mind. But his next words made him instantly furious.
""Your duty will be to give birth to his babies, but only as a concubine. Main wife position is already taken."" He pointed at the woman that stood right next to Illo and smiled at Kendra while waving her hand.
Kendra rose her hand to calm down her whole sect that jumped on their feet and summoned their powers. ""No, they want us to get angry. H e thinks if he makes us furious we will be kicked out the compet.i.tion by guarding G.o.d"s.""
Everyone realized that her words were real so they sat down but this time stared at him with pure hatred. Even tho he knew that Headmaster promised to help him in case of need, he suddenly could feel insecurity. A strange feeling of him getting slowly frozen form inside made him feel pure terror.
""What are you doing to me?"" He stared at Kendra that innocently blinked at him.
With slow-motion, she pointed behind him and as he turned around he saw a furious G.o.d... no the power emanating from this person was higher than G.o.d as he could feel his powers draining out his body and disappearing into nothingness. ""You small worm. You think you can escape me this time...huh?""
A person completely covered in darkness floated not far away from Kenny that suddenly lost his strength and fell to the floor. ""I... I didn"t do anything... I swear.""
The dark person turned his white eyes towards him and snorted. ""Mere cultivator. Of course, you didn"t do anything, but this thing here did.""
Small fox suddenly flew up and tried to escape but strange cage appeared around it and under astonished eyes of cultivators turned into a ma.s.s of slowing things, something that floated and turned to expand more and more.
A long screech could be heard as the creature tried to escape out the cage. But the cage suddenly started gettings smaller and smaller until it squished the creature leaving lifeless ma.s.s floating in the air.
The creature looked at cultivators and announced loudly. ""Now compet.i.tion may proceed. I am going back to the next world to find more of these. Be careful, mean little things.""
As it disappeared everyone started commenting and no one looked over to Grounding Fairy Sect. But that was quite unfortunate for Kenny. He turned his eyes and saw smiling Kendra.
""You have two options. To sell me all the things for corb of spirit fruits and repair of your sea of power or go back to your sect."" Kendra calmly looked at the man that weakly was just sitting there trying to clear his mind.
When he realised what she said he close d his eyes and saw devasted sea of power and weakly nodded. ""Please...""
But what is a good sea of powers if your powers were stolen from you? Now he would need to restart cultivating and will need to wait another few centuries to get his powers back.
But the moment he stepped in front of Illo he knew something bad will happen. In just a few moments his body turned into dust and he disappeared just like that from the world.
Illo just stood there and smiled at his wife. ""We don"t need useless people around us. And that woman, if she doesn"t want, her bad. Right?""
She hugged him around his waist and shrugged. ""She was an obnoxious child and as a woman she is obnoxious as well. Maybe it"s better not to have her around or you would be stressed all the time. You cant have that kind of thing at the moment. The purpose we are here...""
Illo patted her head and smiled as he glanced up to Kendra. ""Don"t worry. I will get it all. Definitely...""
Isaa narrowed her eyes as she saw his disgusting expression as he stared at Kendra and felt anger rising in her heart. ""I must kill him. Or we will have future troubles with him.""
Kendra smiled and shook her head. ""It"s fine. I need him as a bit to lure bigger thing. He is just a small fish. Why even waste energy. Next round you are going down. As rule before. Kill only in need.""
Isaa smiled brightly. ""Well, need it is. I fear that the need will be quite a lot. Look they are already ganging up against our people. This is going to be fun. Finally..."" With hope in her eyes, she looked at Kendra that finally nodded. ""Well, the need time is right now... He hehehehe""
