The World Of Demons And Gods

Chapter 24 - ‡※‡Three Stooges‡※‡

...

Once Cyrus had entered the city, a great view had surprised his eyes as he had seen different kinds of buildings, houses, markets, and its people. What caught Cyrus attention was that their style of architecture was something between medieval and renaissance.

The entire city was lively, crowds had packed the roads making horse carriages, and wagons have difficulty on moving in these traffic roads, vendor's shouts could be heard as they advertise the crowds on the side of the street on their respective stalls and shops.

Seeing people here, Cyrus had felt a pressure building up inside of his heart due to the fact that he is an introverted person, he really cannot stand well in this crowded place.

Uwa~ there are many people here, I feel nervous damn it... Nevertheless, he chose to cope with it.

However, seeing his tensed expression, Shane tapped Cyrus' shoulder.

"Yes, mother?" Cyrus turned around and looked at her masked mother.

"Come." Shane waved her hands gesturing Cyrus to follow her as she said that with different and unfamiliar voice.

Her voice is really different... Cyrus nodded as he followed both of his mother and father as they lead the way.

"Hm?"

While following them, Cyrus had noticed that the people around here are mixed with regular humans and demi-humans, their ranks are ranging from elementary rank to warrior rank and nothing are higher than those that he had sensed.

It seems the fact that regular humans being weak are tolerable in this city... Cyrus smiled as he noticed that there is no discrimination against regular humans before quickly following his parents.

The three stopped in a three-story building, which has a fancy design; however, Cyrus had noticed that this place is both a restaurant and a place to rest for a night... It is an inn.

"Let's go." Said, James.

*Clingling~*

The three walked as they entered the inn, once they were inside the inn, the customers around the area had stopped chatting as they observed the newcomers.

This inn has a restaurant on the ground floor and an Inn on the upper floors, and Cyrus had noticed that the customer around here is mixed with mercenaries that are both regular and demi-humans; while the strongest cultivator here was a Rook Rank

Seeing that they cannot sense the strength of this three and noticed that they are out of their league, especially those two masked people in the front of the kid gave off terrifying chills running on their bodies when they tried to sense these two.

All the practitioners around here had the same thought as they conclude that these three people are definitely not regular practitioners.

...

Seeing an open seat for four people on the side near the stairs, the three walked towards there and quietly sat comfortably. However, if once someone looked on Cyrus' face, he had a baffled expression while touching his c.h.e.s.t as if he had a feeling of something.

{Lily, why does my heart feels itchy all of a sudden?} He asked as he used his thoughts on Lily.

[That's actually normal due to your parents' actions, they slightly radiated their aura so people won't disturb the three of you, in short, this serves as a warning that if one moved that could bother the three of you, then...] Lily replied as he let Cyrus conclude and realize what will happen.

This is actually something useful... Cyrus thought as he runs his introverted thoughts.

[Cyrus, I already scanned the entire city with my spiritual sense; it seems there is no stronger than Knight Rank.] Lily said casually before cutting her link with Cyrus.

No stronger than a Knight Rank? Isn't the strength of this city is too weak? Cyrus could only sigh on the pathetic security of this city.

...

Looking around before finally seeing someone, James raised his hands.

Soon enough, the waiter had noticed this as he quickly went limp from fear but in the end, he quickly went towards them and gave a menu to the couples.

James gave the menu on Cyrus as he said, "Pick what you want to eat."

Taking the menu, Cyrus opened it.

Pfft! The heck!

Once Cyrus had seen the list of foods and their prices, he was shocked at the absurdness of the prices of these foods. He was practically seeing a treasure trove!

While Cyrus was reacting on the prices, James looked and stared at the waiter. Due to the mask that he was wearing, the waiter could not help to get scared deep inside; especially the voice of James has actually made his soul quiver in fear.

"Do you still have a room for three people?" He asked.

Hearing this, the waiter quickly nodded multiple times in a single flash due to his fear, "O-of course our dear lords, there's a plenty room upstairs!" the waiter stuttered.

"Then after we have ordered our meal, go prepare the room immediately," James said casually as he turned around and looked at Cyrus; not paying more attention at the waiter.

Sensing his gaze, Cyrus looked at James with crazy expression, "Father, everything is crazily expensive!" Cyrus muttered as he pointed to one of the cheapest dishes.

When James stared at it, he could only laugh dryly.

////Cheapest Goodies To Eat!!!///

1. One bowl of grain meal and three pieces of smoked fish - Cost 500 Cyan crystals.

2. One bowl of grain meal and ten pieces of fried falcon chicken skin - Cost 700 Cyan crystals.

3. ...

Yada yada yada.

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////

"A-haha... At the moment, the prices are pretty normal here." James dryly laughed as he remembered himself when he checked the prices and has the same reaction as Cyrus did.

"So, what would you like to eat?" he asked.

"Anything cheap is fine..." Cyrus replied since he is not very meticulous about foods, he could cope with eating anything. There is one time that he even had eaten three boiled duck embryo and he ate it as if nothing, he even taste that it was delicious.

The look might be menacing to the stomach and disgusting to eat, but the taste of it had an explosive taste, called deliciousness.

(Search for Balut)

James nodded as he looked at the waiter and Cyrus had finally pushed the golden treasure trove called menu carefully away from him and he promises to himself that he would never look to it ever again.

After ordering the food, the waiter quickly moved away as he gave the orders to the chef before quickly running upstairs to prepare the rooms for the three.

Soon enough, Shane and James stood up and looked at Cyrus, "Dear, we're going to check the room upstairs, just stay here for a while and we will return quickly." Shane said, despite her voice is being amplified by something that distorts her voice to an unnatural voice, Cyrus could feel her motherly love at him.

With a smile on his face, he nodded at the two of them.

...

When the two went upstairs, the customers around suddenly sighed in relief as they remind themselves that they would not dare to bother the youth with them.

Looking around, Cyrus had noticed that this place is quite antique and he had concluded that this place is between low-class or mid-class place to eat, the problem is that this place had expensive food.

"Haaaa~ I do hope that the food here is worth it," Cyrus muttered to himself as he clasped his hands and leaned it on his forehead.

*BANG!*

The door of the shop was suddenly barged open with a single foot and if one had sensed it, that kick had contained anima on it.

Three people came in with an identical look on their faces as if they are triplets; they wore brown robes and looked foreign around this city.

The three came inside and quickly looked around looking for seats. Their faces wore a malicious gaze and their smile had savageness. However, soon their smile turned to a creepy frown as they found out that there are no more seats allowed.

"Hey, hey, aren't these guys the deadly triplets from the mercenary guild?" Some of the customers muttered.

"Yeah, yeah, that's them. It was said that these three had already reached Knight Rank stage."

"Ehh? So that means that the rumors about the city lord had recognized these three triplets as the protector of the city due to their highest cultivation rank in the city?"

...

When those muttering were heard by the triplets, they pushed their c.h.e.s.t upward with a haughty look on their faces as if they are proud of themselves and it seems they clearly liked this kind of attention.

Despite those mutterings are silent, cultivators or practitioners had clearly heard those due to their s.e.n.s.i.t.i.v.e hearing and Cyrus was no exception as he had heard that very quickly, however, Cyrus did not pay a single look on them.

"Brother Lu, it seems there's no more seat here." The man on the right muttered with a frown on his face. However, the man in the middle smiled as he shrugged, "Nah, there is." he smiled as he gazed towards Cyrus.

Tracing his gaze, everyone had noticed that they are targeting is the youth who had terrifying companions!

This is bad!

The crowd could not help to get scared as they could only hope that they won't disturb that young master.

Seeing where their brother is pointing at, the two smiled maliciously as they gave a snicker.

The three arrogantly walked towards Cyrus and when they had arrived, the guy on the middle lifted his hands.

Crap! This guy is finished!

Seeing these actions had made the crowd finally got scared and they could only hope that they will not be implicated by their rude action.

*Bang!*

The guy on the middle finally smacked the table carrying a tremendous amount of strength to scare Cyrus.

However, to their disappointment. Cyrus did not even flinched nor got scared, much less look at them!

Seeing this, the two brothers of the guy in the center immediately tried to motivate their brother.

"Brother Lu look at his face, it's already withered from fear!"

"Heh, Brother Lu, this kid might have already peed himself hahaha."

The two laughed as they continued to poke fun at Cyrus. Even though it was indeed funny, however, this is not the moment for them to laugh! The customers did not dare to laugh but all of them are scared to death!

These three idiots!

The other customers could not help to curse at them.

Enjoying the jokes of his brothers on his back, the guy on the middle smiled and stared at Cyrus coldly as he was trying to dominate this youth to scare him, "Hey kid, step aside and clean that stinking piss of yours! Your granddaddy here will seat these seats from now on with your handsome daddies."

However, in disappointment, Cyrus did not bother looking at him.

"This kid probably had already lost his consciousness, brother lu, take it easy, you might crush the c.o.c.kroach!" One of his brothers cracks a joke.

...

Having not easily offended and keeping his cool, it would take quite an amount of time before Cyrus could lose his temper on these three idiots.

Deep inside of his thoughts...

Damn! Couldn't these guys recognize my strength is beyond their capability to went against me!? The smell of their mouth kills me! Ugh, this is disgusting!

Cyrus had one principle in his life, Attack when they took an action if they do not do then do not bother them and let them as they pleased.

Second, if one saw defying the morality and killing without correct reasoning kill and purge that shit out!

While not paying attention to these three idiots, Cyrus is handling how to make these girls inside of his dantian to make them quiet because right now, Lynae is ranting and keep throwing tantrums, as she was clearly annoyed at the three, "How dare they say that to master! Master use me and beat those baddies!"

Lily, on the other hand, was much composed than Lynae, however, she was quite annoyed now, and Cyrus could feel the hot temperature rising inside of his dantian.

Right now, he had finally discovered that Lily had actually a bad temper.

...

Thinking that letting this off easily, Lily might explode in anger if he let these guys do whatever they want in him.

Making up his mind, Cyrus looked at the guy on the middle finally. His eyes were cold yet as if he was looking to a dead person, he opened his mouth, "Mister, this seat is already occupied, and could you just go somewhere else and not bother me?" Cyrus calmly said.

Nice brother! Just keep calm! The crowd shouted at their thoughts as they agreed on Cyrus.

However...

"Hoo? A kid talking back to me huh?" The guy in the middle fiercely looked at Cyrus as he said very coldly, even his brothers on his back had quickly turned fierce as they looked at Cyrus.

Soon enough, their Knight Rank aura had started to radiate from their body.

These Idiots! The other customer cursed as they had already tried to prepare themselves for what disaster will come upon.

"Don't waste your stinking mouth on me, go get lost." Cyrus did not spare looking at him anymore as he said that casually yet calmly.

However, this statement had just exploded the fuse of the guy on the middle as his temper finally broke, "You damned brat!" He roared as he threw a solid punch on Cyrus enhanced with his Knight Rank strength!

*BANG!*

The blast of air coming from the fist of the guy on middle had scared everyone on the inn as they panicked.

His two brothers had a smile on their face as they thought that this would leave as a lesson for Cyrus for offending their Brother Lu!

The guy on the middle who threw a fist on Cyrus had a smile on his face, he didn't hold back despite Cyrus is a decade younger than him, and when he was about to pull his hands back, he felt something is wrong.

Soon enough, he had noticed that Cyrus is casually looking at him with his right hands on his cheeks while his left hands had easily stopped his full strength attack casually! Not only that, he used only one finger! One freaking finger!

This startled the guy who threw a punch on him, not only him but also his two brothers on his back as they clearly couldn't believe to what they had seen, they are shocked beyond belief!

"W-What!?" The leader finally exclaimed in nervousness.

With a sigh, Cyrus lightly pushed his fist with one finger that he had used to defend from the strike earlier, and due to the momentum when the fist was about to return on Cyrus once again, Cyrus finally holds his hands close to the guy's returning fist with an open palm.

Soon enough, Cyrus quickly made a fist and his fist quickly popped and punched through the air as it smashed the fist of the guy!

*Bang!*

His punch was so incredibly fast, that everyone had only seen a flash of it and heard a shockwave from it!

*Bang!*

With another loud bang, the guy named Lu had been smashed on the other side of the wall causing everyone in the inn scared and shitless as they were all shocked at what happened!

Lu's well-built body slowly fell to the ground, as he looked at Cyrus with a frightened and full of disbelief on his face. His hands were actually broken by that flash of punch!

"P-p-Paladin rank!?" Lu cried in fear as he stuttered.

Hearing this, everyone was in a frenzy, as they could not believe to what they had heard!

"This young master is actually a Paladin rank!? My lord!"

"No way, a sixteen or a seventeen years old kid is already a Paladin!? I'm already forty-three when I had broken through to a Rook rank to a Warrior rank!"

"Well, you're that weak so it's no surprise-"

"Shut it bimby!"

...

The surrounding area had turned noisy, as it was full of disbelief, jealousy, and amazement.

The two brothers seeing the condition of their brother, they were scared shitless as they remembered what they had done to Cyrus causing them to have shivers crawling on their back when they looked back at Cyrus.

What they saw is a terrifying gaze of Cyrus as he said, "Run if you want to live." Cyrus calmly said but this calm voice has actually full of threat! Not only that, he had said it while still leaning on his right hand!

"EEK!"

The two squealed in fear as they quickly ran towards their brother and helped him before quickly vanishing out of everyone sight immediately.

"..."

Soon after that, everything went quiet once again. No one could process what happened but one thing for sure is that they had seen something very amazing!

The crowd stared at relaxed Cyrus as if nothing happened, they could not help but admire this powerful youth.

Suddenly, footsteps coming above the stairs had startled everyone as they quickly either leave or return their places quietly.

Soon enough, James and Shane came back while their face is still covered by their mask. However, they stopped their track towards Cyrus when they had noticed the deep cracks coming from Cyrus towards the other side of the wall.

Moreover, what they had seen are an incredibly big crack and a hole!

"It seems people had caused a ruckus here." James unrecognizable voice echoed throughout the inn, this had caused everyone to have a cold sweat and made his or her mouth shut.

Fortunately, the two couples did not bother about it as they went towards Cyrus once again as they sat with him.

The waiter quickly had brought hot and delicious cheap looking food as he served it to the three and come up with cold and refreshing drinks.

"D-due to our inconvenience, we would be willing to cut off the price by 80%, P-please enjoy your meal." The waiter said as he bows his head at the three before leaving quickly.

The three started to eat their meal quietly and when Cyrus was about to eat, he had noticed that his father and mother was giving a thumbs up to him.

"Heh..."

Seeing this had made Cyrus didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he could only shake his head with a smile on his face before eating his meal.

As they were peacefully eating here, the crowds outside the inn are rowdier more than ever as they heard a news regarding a youth had severely beaten the strongest of the triplets not only that, this youth is already a Paladin rank!

This news spreads like a virus that had shocked everyone!
