Chương 47: Busy Body

"Getting rid of me so fast?" asked the man in red, noticing her intention.

Tria ignored him and grabbed on to Crei to leave. She had come over here thinking he was an opponent, but he was only on those lotus bees. Crei also ignored him and followed his wifey, as long as Tria's attention was on him, nothing else mattered.

Tria went back to the fighting scene and when she arrived, all of the Eye clansmen were kneeling on the ground.

"That's right! Kneel! How dare you call our priestess a fake?" shouted Ka'an and kicked at the men kneeling.

"You might be able to beat us down today, but stronger clansmen will come after you and avenge us. You should count yourself lucky it was us who came, or you would have all been dead already," shouted that man with gold teeth, except they were all gone now that he was beaten into a pulp.

"We will be ready," interjected Tria, "we are not afraid, whether your clan sends one hundred or more, we will be ready, you can now no longer flaunt my identity around, as everyone has seen that we have nothing to do with each other."

"You don't know how great of an option you were given, had you chosen to join us maybe there would have been some salvation for you, but now only death awaits you," said the man, then suddenly, he coughed out a mouthful of blood and collapsed on the ground, unmoving.

It was not just him, all of his fellow clansmen also coughed up blood and died on the spot.

Tria was surprised, the Eye people have all taken their own lives. Since they had not hurt anyone today, she was thinking of leaving them alive, so they could have gone back and reported to their higher-ups of her actions today, however now, they were all lying dead in front of the temple.

"What in the world?" asked Kal troubled, he did most of the beat up, and he was sure he didn't land deal that much damage to them.

"Don't worry, they all took their own lives," reassured Tria seeing his horror.

"Freaks!" murmured Ka'an.

"Hm," answered Tria as she looked at the surroundings.

Everyone else had already left, except for the prime minister's guards who were guarding the direction back to town, where the people have left to. She had already said her goodbye to Jafnaor, so she did not need to go back there.

Their next destination was the Moon Land, where it was constantly nighttime, and it would not take them long to arrive since this mountain range was the boundary between the Earth Land and the Moon Land.

"Everyone performed really good today! I am glad that everyone is able to follow my orders as instructed, as well Ka'an who has also advanced to the Grandmaster level during this fight," she smiled at them.

"Thank you, senior sister," said Ka'an and the rest nodded in agreement.

"Now we shall dispose of the bodies and ward off any negative energies they might have left behind," said Tria as she looked at the motionless bodies on the ground.

"I might be able to help you with that," sounded the same deep voice from before.

Tria turned and saw the man in red walking towards her, and Crei immediately grabbed her by the waist and distanced themselves from the man.

"Haha, little rabbit, your man is quite jealous," he said playfully then continued, "I just want to help you with these bodies, that's all."

"Who's that?" asked Ka'an.

"A busy-body," answered Mexi as she pouted, she was a saint level, of course, she was aware of what happened by the tree.

"Oh," answered Ka'an, she was clueless when it came to things like that, so she just brushed it off.

The man in red heard their conversation and winked playfully at the two girls. However, while Mexi simply looked away from him, Ka'an was confused at the man's actions.

"I do not need your help, please continue on your journey and leave me and my friends alone," coldly said Tria to the man in red. When dealing with annoying men, she has always been firm about her stance.

"Oh my, heartless little rabbit, it won't take long to get rid of them, besides if you are planning to travel to the Moon Land, I can gain you easy entry," he said and offered.

Tria looked towards Crei, because she wasn't aware that they needed to be permitted entry to the Moon Land. Crei nodded his head in confirmation at her, he also had a way of getting her in, after he was still a prince, but he didn't say anything. He was curious about the man in red's intention.

"See? I am not lying, haha, it looks like we'll be traveling together. Before I introduce myself, let me get rid of these smelly men," the man in red said, as he moved towards the dead Eye clansmen.

"I do not need your help, and I also haven't agreed on your joining us, so don't make yourself comfortable," said Tria as she walked toward the man in red and stood in front of the bodies on the ground.

She activated her golden eyes, and as soon as she did, she was able to see the remains of those peoples' souls screaming in torment. Tria's brows furrowed at the sight, whatever entity these people were worshipping had their souls locked away already, there was no possibility of them crossing over. Their souls will eternally be in agony, and that is probably the price they had to pay for any mortal gains they have made, physically or emotionally.

There is nothing that Tria could do, therefore she simply had Seti and Kal bury them. The man in red simply stood on the side, it did not seem like he had any plan of leaving.

In the end, Tria accepted his offer and the whole group traveled together towards the Moon Land.

There was a total of four carriages, the man in red wanted to sit in the same carriage as Tria but he was rejected by her, and he ended up in one by himself, while Tria shared one with Crei. The other two was shared between the rest.

As they rode into the dark mountain range, from behind a tree walked out a figure as he stared at the departing carriages with a solemn face.

"So long…Miss Thea," murmured Adi, then he returned home.

From the moment the priestess jumped from the balcony, he had noticed the similarities in Miss Thea's and the priestess's silhouettes and seeing Crei protecting her from the man in red, confirmed his speculations.

Adi found himself to be no opponent for Crei, nor the man in red. Therefore, he returned to his normal life, being filial to his father and supportive to his town. With the town cleanse, life should be better now for the people.
