章節 30: Arc 2.4 This body is quite inconvenient
Shen Jiyu nodded and was about to put his leg on the floor when he remembered that Haldir loved to fly everywhere. He flapped his wings and made for the door, he opened the door handle and heard Amira say, "I forgot. That halfling was the one who carried you here. Haldir, cut him some slack."
Shen Jiyu nodded and closed the door behind him. He walked around the school, in order to further segregate the Dark Elves, the location of the Elvina Academy had been changed, they were floating in the air where the wingless Dark Elves could not reach. The school buildings were empty, leaving one or two students who were chattering around.
"Where could he be?" Shen Jiyu asked and stretched just a little drop of energy into the school but before his goal could be achieved, he collapsed against the wall, feeling so tired.
"Realm Master! Please avoid using any form of power so your body could recover. I would search for the Marquis. I took some tools when I left the Bureau for control and Management, locating the Marquis would not be difficult at all."
Shen Jiyu held his pounding head and nodded for Xiao Shu to use the said item. This body was really inconvenient.
Xiao Shu took out a small compass, it was finely crafted and beautiful. The arrays within the compass were intricately woven and delicate, capable of concealing great power and at the same time not affecting the fabrics of the realm. Xiao Shu was a little proud when he saw the hint of admiration in Shen Jiyu's eyes, he had spent more than a million points on this treasure, it was one of his pride and joy.
"Basil Stagsun." He whispered and a holographic image of the beautiful dark elf appeared. He was sitting on top of a tree; his eyes were closed and he seemed to be in a deep sleep.
Xiao Shu could feel the direction that the compass just showed, "It is very far from here. About two hours if you fly."
Shen Jiyu frowned. Was it not too far, wouldn't coming to school be stressful for him? There was no need to disturb him why he was sleeping, he would see Feng Mian, no, Basil, he would see Basil tomorrow. There was no rush. Meeting him, taking care of him, teaching him that there were other things besides power, negating the obsession and taking his soul away, it was not difficult.
Shen Jiyu looked down at the compass that was in Xiao Shu's hand. It was a fun toy, he whispered, "Shen Jiyu." And waited excitedly for the compass to display itself.
The compass shook several times before it burst into pieces. Xiao Shu looked down at the compass that had accompanied him into several worlds and then at Shen Jiyu, he wanted to cry, his compass, his precious compass.
"Realm Master!" He cried like he was mourning a lover.
Shen Jiyu rubbed his nose, "I will get you a much better one when we return."
The heartbroken expression on Xiao Shu's face instantly disappeared and was filled with vigour, "From your vault?"
Shen Jiyu frowned but faced with the two shining eyes before him and the pieces of compass that were on the floor, he relented, "Okay."
Xiao Shu wanted to dance and sing, "From your vault, really, you promise. Should we draw a contract? I am not saying you might forget, I might be the one to forget."
Shen Jiyu waved him off, he had already recovered enough strength and he flapped his wings taking to the sky. "Don't worry." He said to Xiao Shu, "I will not break my word."
Haldir's house was made from trees. Shen Jiyu was not sure how this realm achieved such beautiful tree houses, it surpassed the ones in heaven. He entered the house and jumped on the bed. He could not wait for the next day.
Before the sun was up, Shen Jiyun was already up, he took his bath and freshened up. There was a knock on the door and Shen Jiyu hesitated. He suddenly recalled when that old woman had kicked him from the house, he shook that terrible memory off and opened the door. There were two people in front of the door and they wore the same robes that Shen Jiyu wore.
"Merry Morn." They both echoed and Shen Jiyu repeated the greeting to both of them. These must be Shien and Shiena; they were twins that Haldir always had morning prayers with.
Shen Jiyu frowned; he did not have time for this.
"I need to go somewhere right now. I will pray on my own later."
They looked at each other before the girl stepped forward, "Brother Haldir, We heard the good news. We planned a little thanksgiving at the temple."
Shen Jiyu shook his head. He had missed Basil yesterday, he wanted to see him as soon as possible.
"I am afraid it is a little urgent."
"Is everything alright? Can we help?" Shien asked and Haldir shook his head.
"Thank you for the offer but it is under control." Exhausting his patience for the day, he excused himself, flapped his wings and made for the direction that Basil was resting yesterday.
It was north of the school, He chose the highest vantage point and waited for him there.
Xiao Shu took the shape of a bird and flew next to Shen Jiyu, "Realm Master. We can wait at the school."
Shen Jiyu shook his head. If not for the history between the two, he would have gone straight to Xiao Shu's home. Feng Mian's soul piece this time was easily frightened, he did not want to scare him.
After about two hours of waiting, Shen Jiyun saw a figure from the distance flying slowly towards him. It was Basil, his wings were a mixture of black and grey. Shen Jiyu could feel a certain pain in his chest. His wings were larger than Haldir's own, however many of the feathers had been plucked showing large expanse of skin.
Basil seemed to have seen him as he turned and made to fly away. But unlike when he was running, he was much slower when he was flying and Shen Jiyu quickly overtook him.
"Stop there!" His tone was light but it also brought a sense of dominance.
Blaise did not dare move. It was not as if he could outfly Haldir, he bowed his head and, in his pocket, he clenched the handle of the poisoned dagger tightly.
