The World Of Demons And Gods

Chapter 23 - ‡※‡Arriving at Jade City‡※‡

...

"Nooo! Master would never hate me!" Lynae yelled while extremely nervous, she was aware of what she had done and thinking of something, nothing came up from her mind making her on the verge of crying.

Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of a cloth that used to wipe the egg clean that Lily used. Realizing things, she suddenly spreads her arms forward and a single cloth appeared out of nothing as used this clothes to wipe her pool of saliva.

Her actions had caused Lily to get startled, however when she saw the clothes that Lynae used to clean up her mess, she grinned as if she had identified the clothes.

"Oi third eye, that clothes... That's Cyrus' clothes." She poked fun at her with a cold voice.

Hearing this, Lynae felt something is wrong as she noticed that the piece of clothing that she had been using to wipe her own saliva and when she realized it, it made her shocked.

She stopped wiping as she lifted the drenched clothes.

"Uuu~ this is bad... Ah!" Suddenly Lynae had thought of something, she flicked her fingers with a snap and suddenly all the drenched clothes vanished, seeing this Lynae smiled, "Problem solved!"

...

Cyrus suddenly stood up, Lily had noticed him, and thinking of something stupid again, she smiled and softly ran towards him on tiptoes.

Lynae, however, had not noticed him as she was still busy on being proud of herself, both of her hands are both on her waist, and she puffed her c.h.e.s.t up as if she was a genius girl who had solved a world crisis.

Leaning on Cyrus' shoulder, Lily muttered softly on his ears, "Hey, go there and gave her a cold stare hehe," she said.

Looking at Lily, this is something stupid again... Cyrus could sigh and ask, "Why would I do that?"

Lily giggled and muttered silently at him once again, "Come on Cyrus, just have a little fun!"

Thinking for a while, Cyrus nodded to Lily and the two of them walked towards the prideful Lynae.

"Hey, Lynae!" Cyrus called, hearing his voice had caused Lynae to jumped in shock, she looked at Cyrus with a nervous look on her face while trying hard to smile, "Y-yo, master, yo-you already have finished cultivating." her voiced stuttered.

This girl... Cyrus had already noticed that Lynae is hiding something from him.

Not only on her voice and tensed appearance that made Cyrus conclude that Lynae had done something, her eyes were practically looking everywhere else as she can't look at Cyrus's fierce looking eyes and the way she keeps her hands on her back is actually showing that she is nervous.

Behind Cyrus, Lily was on the verge of laughing once again.

"Lynae, wha-" However, before Cyrus could finish what he was about to say at her, Lynae suddenly burst into tears. "Master! Uu- *sniff* This idiot sword of yours had done something bad! uuuu- *sniff* b-because I made your clothes a rag! J-just to clean off my saliva! Uwaaa!" Lynae cried as she admitted everything.

Lynae was crying while her tiny hands are wiping her river of tears off, seeing this could not make help to get Cyrus to feel bad. He spreads his arms before softly hugging the cute blue-haired Lynae.

Having the feeling of a warm hug from Cyrus, Lynae quickly hugged him as she cried on his abdomen. While c.a.r.e.s.sing Lynae to calm her down, Cyrus looked at Lily, "How did this happen?" he asked.

Trying to hold her laugh, she looked at Cyrus, "I don't know either." she replied as she shakes her head.

This is weird, how did Lynae get my clothes?

Cyrus looked at Lynae and asked, "Hey calm down okay? Now, tell me how did you do that?"

Lynae's teary eyes looked at calm yet warm looking Cyrus' gaze, the worry on her heart has finally calmed down, "You see, I can see things inside of my thoughts and with a snap of my fingers the item would appear here..." Lynae faintly replied.

Hearing this, Cyrus' eyes suddenly widen as if he had thought of something good, "What? That is awesome! Don't worry about my clothes, more importantly, with this; I could buy you two your own bed!"

"WHAT!?" 2x

The two girls shouted in excitement, their shout had caused Cyrus to feel dizzy due to their voice.

"Really!? Y-you mean it!?" Lily grabbed Cyrus by the collar as her excitement are practically showing on her own face as she has a wide smile on her face.

Moreover, at this point, Cyrus had realized that he could not turn away from it now nor deny it. The only thing he could do is... to smile and nod his head.

"Yea boiii!" Lily quickly released Cyrus as jumped from happiness while on the other hand; when Cyrus looked at Lynae, he had noticed that her gaze had changed towards him.

Her hands were both clasps together below her chin and kneeling onto the ground as if she was praying to a deity, "God, thank you!" She kowtowed in front of Cyrus that immediately shocked him.

Are you guys desperate to have a bed!? Is sleeping on the ground here hurts your back that badly!?

Cyrus could not help to throw tantrums inside of his thoughts before quickly helping Lynae to stand up as he immediately said, "No, no, no don't call me like that."

"T-then my lord!" Lynae cutely stuttered.

"No, brother is fine." Cyrus smiled.

"I can't do that, you're my master!"

"Brother."

"Master."

"Brother!"

"Master!"

"Lynae! Listen, I don't want you to order around as my slave, so, call me your brother!"

"Then calling you God is better!"

Cyrus: "ಠ_ಠ..."

(ಥ﹏ಥ) Lynae come on! She is so hard to deal with! I think I do not want to have children if this is how they behave, she's more spoiled than I was when I was a kid back from my previous life!

"Sigh~" Cyrus gave up at insisting Lynae to call him her brother, but despite this, Cyrus will always see Lynae as her little sister no matter what.

He turned around and faced the almost crying Lily from controlling her laugh as she gave Cyrus a thumb up as if she was amused by what happened earlier.

"Lily and Lynae, at the moment I think I can't buy you two your own things because I can't afford in this forsaken kingdom due to high prices of things," Cyrus said with an apologetic look on his face as he wryly smiled at them.

Lynae: "Okaay!"

"Mn, that's fine as long as you keep your words." When Lily had said that, her eyes suddenly flashed terrifying flash that scared Cyrus due to how terrifying strength that he had sensed in that single flash.

She is threatening me!

"Of course."

Lily had understood this because she can hear what Cyrus and his parents were saying at that moment; even she cannot seem to accept the huge prices of things here in this kingdom.

Also despite being a spirit that has no body, here in Cyrus dantian, they felt they have their own body that is why they can experience cramps when they are sleeping and feel uncomfortable.

(Imagine, a Tyrant Rank Cultivator, which is the peak realm stage of Mortal realm experiencing bed cramps... Seems inconceivable.)

With that, Cyrus smiled and bid his goodbye to the two at the moment as he left his dantian.

...

When he woke up back from the material world, as he opened his eyes, what he had seen was that he was looking on the ground and he could see a shoulder that has a leather coat, sensing this person's aura he quickly realized who this person is.

"Father, you can put me down... The way you carry me are like you're lifting a rice sack with your shoulders."

Yes, the way James was carrying Cyrus was like a sack of rice being carried on his shoulders. Cyrus could not help to imagine how people would react when they saw him like that.

Hearing his quiet voice and his complaint, James smiled as he quickly put Cyrus down and let him walk on his own, "Sorry about that, you had a deep sleep, your mother and I thought that waking you up is a waste since we're almost reaching our destination." James said as he looked apologetic toward Cyrus.

"It's fine and by the way, we are already heading towards the Jace city?" Cyrus was suddenly pumped up by excitement as he was anticipating something good.

There are things that he wanted to learn, how the way the city looked, what type of city is it? What is the architectural style of the buildings they use, are they similar to medieval? Or renaissance?

...

Once Cyrus and his parents crossed a top from the hill on the road, Cyrus was finally amazed at what he had seen, as he was extremely surprised. Far away from the plains, Cyrus could see a towering wall that had almost looked like reached the clouds; however, Cyrus had estimated that the wall is approximately fifty meters high.

In that tall wall, Cyrus could see on this view a huge gate full of crowded people ranging from Civilians, Traders, Mercenaries, and soldiers that guard the city. From this distance, they looked like small ants as he could only gasp silently.

While walking towards the city, Cyrus looked at his mother, Shane as he asked, "Mother, I've been wondering, why does this city have a huge wall?" This is the question that he wanted to have an answer, as he was baffled by the purpose of the towering walls.

Pointing her forefinger on her chin as she was thinking of an answer she said, "You see, every city in this continent had walls similar to this, its purpose was to protect the citizens residing inside the city from demi-beast raids."

"Raids by demi-beasts? That's actually a thing?" Cyrus baffled as he realized something, once he had read a novel that in a fantasy world, there would be beast-like demons raiding a city that killed almost all the population of that particular city.

Hearing his baffled voice, Shane could only smile. Due to Cyrus being homeschooled, he had not learned this kind of things and they could not help to feel sorry for making their son a country bumpkin in the outside world.

"Yup, in a single year, there would be always three months called month of hell. Which all demi-beast ranging from thousands that have the strength of grade 1 to grade 3 accompanied by their leader that has the rank ranging from grade 4-5 and the strongest record is that there was once a grade 6 demi-beast in human form had raided a city," Shane explained seriously as she was reminding Cyrus that this is important.

Hearing this had actually frightened Cyrus, due to not only have its massive amount of demi-beast, but their ranks had terrified him.

(I will explain the strength of demi-beast in the auxiliary chapter)

When they are near the city gates, both Shane and James put on their Kitsune mask as they covered their entire face. Seeing this, Cyrus had felt that these two people had changed drastically, Cyrus could not put into a sentence, and what word that he could think is, "Scary."

Cyrus did not bother to ask about it as for it is obvious that they do not want to reveal their identity, and thinking of their standing in this continent, they would surely cause a huge ruckus here especially when they are here in a forsaken kingdom of Annesly.

Once the three had stepped in the gates, other travelers did not dare to look at the three as they felt they have a powerful background due to their different clothing.

The gates have blockade as they investigate and inquire information on the travelers causing to have a huge line of common folks.

When Cyrus' group was next the guards had seen them, three guards blocked their path with their fierce look on their faces, this action made the rowdy and noisy surroundings turned quiet and made Cyrus' group stop.

"What's the purpose of coming into this city?" The skinny guard in the middle arrogantly asked, he stared at Cyrus with a threatening look, however, this gaze did not faze Cyrus, as he could only pity the guard deep in his thoughts.

Cyrus had sensed that this three are demi-humans and only at Rook Rank so by means, they are not much of a threat to Cyrus, much less to his parents.

"We came here to stay for a single night. That's all" James spoke, however, his voice was heavy and deep, even Cyrus could not believe that this voice came from his father and this voice is much unknown to him.

Now, if he had heard this voice one more time, he could recognize that this voice came from this father.

Hearing this, noticing his dominant voice, and finally noticed that they can't seem to read this group's ranks, they couldn't help to have a cold sweat running on their backs.

Scary.

The guards could utter this word in their nervous minds.

*Slap!*

The second guard immediately smacked the skinny guard's head, "My lords, please forgive this disrespectful fellow here." Knowing that their league was out of them, the second guard grabbed the neck of his fellow skinny guard and the three of them made a bow.

The third guard immediately looked at his fellow terrified guards on the back as he yelled, "Let them pass!"

Without a hitch, Cyrus and his parents silently walked inside the city.
