Kapitel 113: Hong'er

Yun Che shouted "YOU ATE MY SWORD!!!" The little girl shrank her neck and said in disdain "That sword was crap, I'll give you another one!" Yun Che was about to spank this little girl's cheeks as he said "That crap was my partner!" The little girl's neck once again shrank back, however, her little face revealed an unsatisfied expression. With her nose raised, she said. "What I will give you in return is more incredible than the one I ate earlier! Hmph!"

She glowed red and with a 'poof' she transformed into a Heavy Sword. It was pure red and 9 feet long. Cross, Yun Che, and Jasmine were stunned. Yun Che picked up the sword and groaned "So heavy!" before lifting it in the air with difficulty and swinging it around a bunch.

His eyes brightened at the weight and he laughed happily, Jasmine suddenly said "Drip a drop of blood on the sword now!" Yun Che dripped a drop as he was told and the little girl reverted back, holding a finger to her chin and thinking really hard about something.

Yun Che said "What's your name little girl?" The little girl said "I don't remember." Yun Che asked "Do you want me to give you a name?" the girl nodded happily and Yun Che said "What about Hong'er?" the little girl repeated the name several times before clapping and saying "Only call me this in the future!"

Jasmine said "Make a contract with her! Now!" Yun Che looked troubled and turned to Hong'er, who was looking at him, he said "Hong'er, since Dragon Fault has been eaten by you, I no longer have any weapons that I can use. Since you said that you will pay me back, then in the future, when I need to use a weapon, you have to transform into that sword earlier, is this agreeable? Hong'er is a beautiful young lady, and a beautiful young lady must keep her words!"

Hong'er pushed out 3 fingers and said "I have 3 conditions! One, you must play with me often, you can't ignore me. Two, you must find me various tasty food everyday, you're not allowed to make me hungry, nor are you allowed to be petty. Three, you can't throw me aside and run away like what happened earlier, nor are you allowed to scold me!"

Yun Che smiled and nodded before tapping Hong'er's forehead, a red light flashed and on the back of his left hand a red sword appeared. Yun Che threw her another sword he had and Hong'er happily started nibbling on the sword.

The space started trembling and Hong'er flew into the Sky Poison Pearl, Cross and Jasmine went inside as well.

Cross was playing around with Hong'er, dangling a sword in front of her and pulling it away whenever she grabbed at it, while Jasmine was talking to a remnant spirit about some stuff.

Hong'er pouted "Ah! Handsome big brother is a bully!" Cross snickered and threw her the sword, Hong'er ate it in 3 bites and Cross dangled another one in front of her while laughing.

The spirit dissipated and Jasmine looked over, her eyes twitching at the scene of Cross dangling a sword in front of Hong'er. She smacked him and said "Why are you being so mean for?" Hong'er held Jasmine's arm and shook it saying "Beautiful big sister! He... He bullied me!"

Cross shivered at Jasmine's gaze and said "Fuck! Okay fine! Have 'em..." he flipped his hand over and a pile of swords fell on the ground. Jasmine said "Where did you?" Cross smiled and said "A bunch of different places, plus I was practicing forging..."

Hong'er dove into the pile of swords and made... sword angels?? Well whatever she was doing, Cross chided "Listen here, you keep playing with your food and I'll give you a nice spank!" Hong'er shrank her neck and said "AH! Don't spank me!" before stuffing her face with swords.

Cross smiled and patted Hong'er's head, Jasmine smiled slightly and Cross said "Be a good little lady and this big brother will give you a better sword to eat!" Hong'er started drooling, Cross chuckled and shook his head.

He sat down on the ground as Hong'er passed out in the pile of swords, Jasmine sat next to him and smiled happily. Cross turned to her and hugged her into his lap with a cheeky smile, Jasmine's face started burning and Cross chuckled before kissing her.

Jasmine pounded on his chest with her small fists, creating metal banging sounds. Cross separated from her lips and licked his own saying "Sweet~" Jasmine covered her face and stuttered "Y-Y-Y-You're bullying me!" before flying away, Cross laughed and shot a warm and gentle smile in her direction.

A while later

Cross teleported outside, his appearance was messy. He had just come from the inner world, as soon as Feng Xue'er and Luna saw him, he was attacked! All he wanted was a shirt and his slippers, but he got attacked with kisses and a demand to come see her tonight. The demand was from Luna of course!

He agreed but they still didn't let him go, being so handsome... He didn't know if it was a blessing or a curse!

Cross touched the ground, wearing a white wife beater, black shorts that reached half way down his thighs, and the pink fluffy bunny slippers. If someone from Earth looked at him, they would surely call him a 'Bum'. Fortunately, he wasn't on Earth anymore and his 'Bum' style looked fresh here.

Something to note!

Feng Xue'er reached the Sovereign Realm 1st level today from Cross' breakthrough! Luna also got some benefits and her Realm reached Sovereign Peak, just a step away from Divine Origin Realm. Cross told Feng Xue'er and Luna the Realms after Sovereign realm and they both nodded, understanding that they had a long way to go.

Cross smiled at them and told Feng Xue'er "Soon, I will upgrade your Profound veins and body... I just need to find a few more things... I'm sorry it's taking so long. It had to be perfect." Feng Xue'er felt warm in her heart and hugged Cross saying "It's okay.. I'll wait for as long as you need. I will work hard to help you!"

Cross stroked Feng Xue'er's hair and said softly "I don't need you 3 to help me... I just want you all to be happy." Luna looked to the side and wiped her eyes, Feng Xue'er kissed him saying seriously "I don't care! I will not get left behind!" Cross smiled and kissed her forehead softly as he said "I will never leave you behind, Xue'er."

Feng Xue'er trembled and shooed him away as she said with watery eyes "En. Go! I heard brother Yun calling!" Cross smiled and kissed Luna before going out. Feng Xu'er wiped her eyes and said "He have to be stronger!" Luna nodded and they both disappeared.

Both the kids were 11 now and making spectacular progress, being at the True Profound realm, shocking everyone in the castle. Cross only said "Good genes." he almost got beat up when he said that.

Currently

Cross was standing next to Yun Che, witnessing all these animals and trees turning into humans. Yun Che was stunned and Cross said in confusion "Animagus? That's not right..." Yun Che said "What an Animagus?" Cross explained "In my world there's a ritual, you stick a leaf of a plant to the roof of your mouth for a month and during a storm you chant some words then you will have the ability to become an animal whenever you want."

Yun Che's eyes widened and he said "WHAT!?" Cross nodded and said "It's pretty cool, I never got around to do it..." he looked at Yun Che and said "Wanna become an animal with me?" Yun Che was startled and said "Uhh... Okay!"

Cross was excited and handed him a leaf as he said "Keep it on the roof of your mouth and leave it there for a month..." he told Yun Che was to say and said it himself before smiling happily, he didn't really care what he got, anything would be useful. Also, most strength comes from his Elf form not his animal form, whatever it may be.

A young woman sauntered over and looked at Cross hungrily. Cross smiled and the young woman was in a daze for a moment, he chuckled and caressed her cheek softly as he said "Little girl... go back to your rooting spot. This King believes you can break your shackles."

The young woman started crying and Cross kissed her forehead, before sending her off. She rooted into the ground and transformed into a beautiful apple tree, instead of a crabapple tree. Yun Che looked at him weirdly and Cross said "I'm an Elf, she's a plant. She was very bold to come over here so she was rewarded. I blessed her with my mark, now she'll probably grow to be a giant apple tree one day."

He heard Jasmine snort and he smiled wryly, it was more like the love for a kid than a lover... Yun Che shook his head and chuckled as they left. They walked for a while before Jasmine told them to come into the Pearl.

Yun Che and Cross appeared and saw Hong'er munching on something. Cross chuckled and Yun Che lamented "My purple veined heaven crystals!" Hong'er swallowed them all in one gulp and giggled. Cross picked up a piece of Purple jade Marrow and put it in his inner world, falling in front of Yuechan, who heard 'From your husband' in her mind.

She picked it up happily and walked away with her sword.

Jasmine said "Hong'er show your master what you got before." Hong'er said "Oh yeah!" she flipped her palm and a small dark red arc was floating there. Yun Che grabbed it and froze, Cross stood next to Jasmine and said "The inner world?" Jasmine replied "Sealed." Cross clicked his tongue, Jasmine gave him a funny look and said "What are you upset about? You have your own and it might even be bigger than the Ark's."

Cross sighed and said "Does my body look like a hotel to you, Jas? Why are so many people living in it? I'm not even charging rent!" Jasmine blinked before bursting out in laughter, her laughter was smooth and beautiful. Cross felt his heartbeat increase looking at her smiling face and listening to her enchanting voice.

She calmed down and smiled sweetly "You can just kick them out?" Cross sighed and said "Forget it. They're basically family anyway." Jasmine floated next to him and smiled as she said "You're a good person~" Cross scoffed and said "I think the Underworld Empire of 'Cross haters' would disagree with you."

He paused for a moment before saying "Truly, they must be thriving down there..."

-In the Underworld-

A man was sitting on a throne and he had a malevolent expression, another man walked over and saluted before saying "Your majesty! You've found more!" the man snorted and said "Bring them to me, they will join us as well." the servant nodded and held his fist over his heart as he said "Kill Cross!" before retreating.

The man grinded his teeth at the name and slammed on his throne growling "When you finally die... I will be waiting for you! This old schemer will play to the end!" That's right! It was Dumbledore! He looked a lot younger now and didn't have his giant beard, he had been rounding up all the people who were killed by Cross and forming his own empire.

Recently there have been a massive influx of new citizens, he was happy! Someone else was happy too.

In a luxurious palace in the middle of the Underworld

A young man with extremely handsome features was laying on a bed, surrounded by beauties. He had fair skin and black hair with red eyes, on his back were massive black wings. He sat up and yawned, rubbing his eyes before smiling happily "That Cross guy is my idol! He's been sending me so many souls! Maybe I should go meet him one day..."

He chuckled and said "Nah! I'll see him when he's dead, ahahahah!" before embracing the little beauties on his bed with a big smile.

-Back to the Sky Poison Pearl-

Cross said "They must be thriving down there..." Jasmine giggled and shook her head saying "I doubt it."
