Heavenly Dao Child 256 My happy Place

A serene sound of water fall was present in the room which was further accentuated by the sonorous wind chimes which spread and atmosphere of calm and tranquility, Ryuu sat on a chair as he wrote on a notebook, sweet smell of freshly brewed 'Nine Realms tea' spread around, a very costly tea of 5 Immortal Crystal per gram, a steaming pot full of which was kept on top of the desk while a cup held it for him to sip from it.

Ryuu added a few more symbols for his arrays as he took a sip from the cup, it really helped him calm his nerves before he stiffened slightly then he spoke with a smile on his face, "Big Sister, please take a seat and do you want some.", he turned to face the newcomer as he offered her a cup.

Shamiran smiled as she spoke, "Impressive baby brother you were able to detect me so easily."

Ryuu gave a small smile as he spoke, "I was only able to detect you because you let me, big sister."

Shamiran shrugged at that as she spoke, "True but you were able to detect me 2.9 seconds earlier than last time, and it is extremely impressive improvement. So how is the array coming along?"

As she took a chair Ryuu sighed before he poured a cup of tea which he gave to her as he spoke, "Meh, it is coming along so so, nothing spectacular though I am hitting a few snag here and there I will have to consult teacher once I return."

Shamiran nodded as she sipped from her cup before letting out a blissful sigh, "Impressive you make nice tea Ryuu."

Ryuu: "It is the tea that tastes well not how I make it."

Shamiran shook her head as she spoke, "You are too humble brother, just accept the compliment without fighting against it."

Ryuu smiled at that before he spoke with seriousness, "Sister there is something I learned a few hours prior but I have yet to make headway about it."

Shaimran: "What is it brother?"

Ryuu: "I happened to spy on Narcisa and her husband Cleto, they were saying that within the next 4 days the 'Great One' would arrive through the 'Gateway' in Sebate city and when the 'Great One' reaches they will begin the ritual."

Shamiran listened patiently to the new information gathered by Ryuu, who kept on speaking, "I am ashamed to say that I was not unable to find out anything about the so called great one nor have I been able to learn anything about this 'Great Way', is this 'GateWay' thing some form of conduit?"

Shamiran: "Well for normal cultivators there is two ways for people to travel from one planet to another, firstly by some flying vessel, and secondly by using this 'Gateway' mostly this is a giant teleportation device used to travel from one planet to another it is costly and the device used for such takes a lot of maintenance as such only strong powers of a planet can maintain them, as such not many planet has one."

Ryuu spoke with a smile, "Hmm maybe I would one day love to use them."

Shamiran sighed as she spoke, "No Ryuu there is no need for you to travel using such an archaic method, you have much better means to travel not only that it is dangerous sometimes when the teleportation device of a place falls in disrepair accidents will happen which will kill and it is not a pleasant way to die so no, why take unnecessary risk where you will gain nothing in return not only that it is waste of your time and money."

Ryuu simply gave looked like a kicked puppy which caused Shamiran's brow to twitch as she spoke, "You are over 18 years old such things have no effect on us anymore, in fact instead of heart melting cuteness it is now simply gross so please refrain from doing such.", causing Ryuu to curse inwardly, 'Drat it was so much fun when I was a child, just a teary eyed look could get me anything I wish I was young again.'

Shamiran: "So what have you planned Ryuu?"

Ryuu quickly took out a map which he spread on top of his desk, the map has various markings on it, Shaimran peered on it as Ryuu spoke, "This is the map of Aglon city and its surrounding area this was the mine for the spirit stone which was reported to be empty, and if you go check you will find it empty but it was a single vein of spirit stones in this area, in fact another vein had been found a couple of kilometers east of this place and astonishingly it is Immortal Spirit Stones, the overseer lied hiding those reports but most importantly there is tomb of someone and this 'Great One' will try to open it, an array is being made fueled by the KI enriched by the blood of cultivators whom they have killed, the Immortal Spirit Stone vein would be used to fuel the array."

Shamiran frowned as she spoke, "Troublesome, about the tomb did you find anything or what kind of seal that they are trying to break."

Ryuu sighed before he gave a small smile full of embarrassment as he spoke, "Well I am investigating it as such I did not send any message to you all, but this is what I found by studying the tomb, I was not able to get too close to them because of the guards as well as the arrays protecting the place, I was able to bypass a few of the arrays placed to guard the place not all of them as such I was forced to turn back and I am not confident I will be able to break it anytime soon."

Shamiran studied them for a few minutes before she place a jade slip on all the information causing everything to glow briefly before she placed it back inside her space ring as she spoke, "Well continue your investigation Ryuu but remember your safety is paramount while I will look into the things you found, but more importantly what have you been doing the last few days?"

Ryuu gave a chesire grin as he spoke about all the shenanigans that he had went through, as Shamiran's shoulder shook while her eyes shone with mirth.

Meanwhile back in the Mendez family a grumbling brother and sister duo were busy handling some chore assigned by their mother and father.

Gustav grumbled as he spoke, "This entire thing is fault."

Luna send a scathing glare towards her brother as she spoke angrily while wiping the floor, "SHUT UP! How would I know he ate so much that he racked such a humongous bill."

Gustav: "Even if you did not know why would you offer to pay for some stranger?"

Luna blushed as she thought about Ryuu as she spoke, "You would not under….OWww", she clutched her head as she dropped the mop, same was the case with Gustav as they turned they found a rather angry visage of Narcisa standing with her hands outstretched.

Narcisa spoke in angry tone, "Children, this is the most crucial moment in our lives and we have some madman trying to jeopardize everything we have worked for as such I as well as your father and your other mother do not belief that it will be alright for you two to get close to a newcomer, now quickly finish your punishment."

The duo simply nodded as Narcisa left them to their chores, as she was a good few away from them she sighed, 'Why can I not get a child that will do good to me instead of this worthless creature, I used so much resource yet he is not up to the mark, worthless if it were not for the foolish sentiment of my husband I could have already erased the shame. Hmm if only I could find that child I had seen all those years ago he still reeked of his mother's milk yet he was already stronger than the idiot I have to call my son, even after he is 20 he is still not able to stand up to a 7 year old child, a cute child.', she blushed a bit as she thought, 'He would be a teenager right now not only that his family seemed extremely strong if I can find him now I am sure with my beauty and body I can easily ensnare him make him bow to my whims, then I will simply dispose of this idiots and leave a life of luxury lording over others, who knows how strong he is already just thinking about him made me horny, ufufufu.'

Meanwhile Ryuu suddenly felt dirty, dirtier than the sewage and an extremely strong bout of nausea hit him wanting him to throw everything that is inside his stomach including his entrails out because of disgust. 'I do not know why but I fell disgust and dirty I need to find my happy place, my happy place.'
