Greed
Greed
The giant bird stunned than his eyes become soften his body shrunk into a size of a hawk, Lory raised her arms and he flew towards her and perch on her arms gently [Sorry, I'm late] he said while caressing his head on her cheek.
[Don't worry, you just….on time] Lory chuckles.
The bird and the girl chatted nonchalantly and ignore the chaos that had happened around them, well that because for Lory and Girsha this much damaged is consider to be normal for them, when they fight side by side even aircraft falling from the sky like flies and half the forest almost burn if not Lory used her gift to make rain, so this much damage only makes them feel 'Meh….'
"You…..what kinda creature are you?" Qian Qi Feng who pulls himself painstakingly from the ground points at Girsha with his tremble finger, Lory and Girsha stare the disheveled old man with frowned as if they look at an idiot.
"Its a bird….."Lory said obviously, Girsha also tilted his head he wondering if he hit the old man too hard.
"...…"
Qian Qi Feng wants to hit his head on the ground, she talks as if it was normal, what kinda beast is that he never heard a bird who has snow feather and long gold tail, he knew other bird types like Bi Fang and phoenix but never like this and that creature power…is something he never felt before, is different from the sacred beast is something else, its more…divined.
"Master!" Shin Jiu tottering towards him but he suddenly halt when he sees Girsha perch on Lory's shoulder, his eyes become widen and he reluctant to get closer, Lu Jiang Yi is behind Shin Jiu he looks puzzled while looking at her and Qin Qin the Qi Lin, that beast even weirder he peeks from behind the boulder he didn't dare to get closer.
Lory confuses than she realizes, the Monkey and the tiger who finally came also look hesitated they peek from behind the wrecking tree none of them dare to get closer.
[Girsha look what have you done, you're anger scarred everyone] Lory chides him.
[ What anger?] Girsha rebuke [That just me being bad mood after long sleep!] he explained himself, Lory can't refute back his right this much damage is considered to be mild for there standard when she brings Girsha home to her kingdom it created a whole lot of commotion even the higher up and his Father gather a big meeting to discuss about Girsha existence inside the Kingdom finally it was her Father who approves it.
"Master…that…" Shin Jiu asked timidly.
Lory smile at him "Don't be afraid, he is my friend his name is Girsha" Lory stroke Girsha head.
Shin Jiu calmed down when Girsha looks tamed and docile in Lory's hand "Is he you're contractual Beast?" Shin Jiu asked and Lu Jiang Yi also looks curious.
"Contract?" Lory tilted her head "Do we make contract old bird?" Lory said jokingly, than she makes meaningful smile "No, we make promised aren't we"
Girsha nudged his head on Lory's chin, a contract would end when the two participate die but a promise, it would goes on beyond life and death for as long as there soul remains.
"I know a wasted woman like you couldn't have contract powerful beast!" Qian Qi Feng suddenly laughing "Give me the bird and I let you alive!" Qian Qi Feng eyes filled with greed.
"You, shameless Bast**d!" Lu Jiang Yi shout furiously.
Qian Qi Feng scoffed, from inside he robes he takes out the flare and pointing it to the sky, the flare lit up in the sky with red light "My people would come, you can't get away from here…" he sneers.
Lu Jiang Yi's hand trembles from anger, he regret so much for saving this man.
Shin Jiu also looks worry he clutch Lory sleeve tightly, on the other hand Lory and Girsha make another blank expression again.
"Well, if you want to….why not" Lory shrug her shoulder "But you promise you will let us go?" Lory raised her eyebrows.
Shin Jiu nudged her sleeve "Master…." He whines, isn't she told him that he can't trust Qian Qi Feng.
Lory patted the boy's head than she secretly winks at him, Shin Jiu confuse but he stops whining after that, Lu Jiang Yi also curious about what she's would do.
"Of course!" he smile who didn't reach his eyes.
Girsha and Lory exchanged glance with mischievous smile "Okay!" Lory said calmly and Girsha flew toward Qian Qi Feng.
Qian Qi Feng is too excited with this powerful beast he got nothing to worry about even the sacred beast fear him its so great he might become the most powerful person in the country and Lu clan can't step on his dignity again, the gold tail glittering in the air he can imagine his bright future with this beast on his hand.
"Let's make a contract!" he raised his hand at front of Girsha, he opens his palm with big grin plastered on his face.
Lory watch it in relax manner but they're is one that concerns her, she looks down on Shin Jiu worriedly 'It might not suit for a kid'
Meanwhile, Qian Qi Feng body illuminated by white light and so is Girsha it means the contract is on progress, Qian Qi Feng feel his body become warmed and gradually become hot it means Girsha is a powerful beast, his heart is thrilled with excitement, than suddenly he heard a voice inside his head.
'Do you want my power?'
Qian Qi Feng's eyes bulged widely and he smiles happily "Yes, yes, I want power, give me a lot of power!"
'As you wish!'
