Chapter 253 - Her Worth
Girsha acted nonchalantly when he obviously let the sacred beast served him after the beast bravely vowed they're loyalty to shin jiu the monkey peel the grape and feed it to girsha the monkey even wiped his hand first with a clean cloth before he touches Girsha food, in Lory's eyes the monkey looks like a professional Butler.
Shin Jiu pout, why does he felt this sacred beast is unreliable they used to be stick on him no matter where he go but now they spend their time pampering the bird and not like other beast Girsha is ignoring him he didn't give a glance on him, Shin Jiu nudged Lory sleeve with sad eyes "Master, you're beast is mean…" he complained.
Lory sigh "Yeah, he kinda is…" he agrees.
Suddenly Monkey peel another grape and give it to Lory with big grin, Lory casually received it "Thank you Gao Di " she patted the monkey head than she eats the grape and the sweet tasted spread on her moth make her eyes brighter "Your beast is so nice" Lory smile at shin Jiu while licking her sticky finger.
"No, they're not," said shin Jiu "They didn't like human, they always keep their distance even to my grandpa they unwilling to get too close that's why I always confuse why they like Master so much at first I thought you are like me 'The blessed Child' but they said you are not so…..its weird" Shin Jiu stare at lory confusedly.
Lu Jiang Yi and the others also staring at her, Lory feel awkward than she turns to the only creature who might know "Girsha" she called.
[Its the blood] Girsha said through telepathic, he didn't like to communicated to other human other then Lory if sacred beast haughty in front of the human than a 'First Kind' didn't even put human in their eyes they disregard human as greedy, cruel and savaged creature, that's why he surprised when he met someone like Lory and his heart become soften whenever he talks with her and then he met her Family the Lucient's and the Archknight only than his opinion change but only for them not to all human being, that's also the reason he never talk anyone in this world until their prove they're worth.
[Blood?] Lory didn't understand.
[The ancient Blood in our veins, me as the 'first kind' and you as a 'Lucient'] said Girsha again.
[And Shin Jiu what about him, do you think he like us?] She got curious where this 'Blessed child' power coming from.
Girsha take a deep breath [His family perhaps inherited an ancient Blood of the celestial beast from this world but only a little I can only smell faintly, it smelled like a wine scent if I described it to you]
[What make him different then us?] Lory asked again.
Girsha roll his eyes tiredly [Of course he's different silly girl, their's no way he like me and their's no way his little ancient blood could be compared to the pure blood of 'Lucient' you're blood is special Lory, you are special….no King and Queen in the entire world could match your nobility, but that also the reason why Lazarus wanted you're should very much]
Lory sigh she leans her back then she becomes quiet 'Special huh' Lory lament to herself should she be happy or not she didn't understand, for her being an heir of Lucient is a heavy burden and not just her, her brother and father might feel the same so how could she complained, Lucas said the life of Lucient is a mixed between tragedy and glory and he is right, he is absolutely right.
"Master, what's wrong?" Shin Jiu becomes worried when his master suddenly becomes quiet after she called Girsha, why he felt his Master become sad is he said something wrong? is it because he told her she was weird than he grip Lory sleeve "Master, I'm sorry….you are not weird at all, your my great Master" he comfort her earnestly.
Lory awaked from her dazed, she chuckles when Shin Jiu comforting her he might think she's hurt from his word, Lory patted his head dotingly "Don't worry, you're master just remember something, you did nothing wrong"
Shin Jiu eyes glittering, he likes it when his master patted his head, he never has a mother but if he has one he wanted someone gentle and strong like his Master, Shin Jiu rest his head on Lory's arm with happy smile than Lory gives the kid a bag of candy to cheer him up.
Lu Jiang Yi eyes watch them with teary eyes, he always feel sad for his Grandson to grown up without knowing his parents and he get worried when people try to get close to him, Lu Jiang Yi scared that person has secret agenda because they knew Shin Jiu ability but lory is different, the beast approved her they even like her and that's weird bird and most of all lory seems really care for his Grandson.
Lu Jiang Yi glads there's someone else who loves his grandson as much as he does with this perhaps Shin Jiu parents could rest in peace, Lu Jiang Yi watch both master and disciple sharing a bag of candy happily, his mouth slightly curved.
The atmosphere inside the carriage its peaceful and calm but Bei Li Yan minds is overwhelmed when he realizes how much Luo Ri Yi worth, the Liang Zu empress treat her as a family, the Jiu Yun sect treat her as a benefactor and a good friend and now she become the master of 'The Blessed child' this child might not do much at this aged but tree to five years later how powerful this child would be, the center of all this is Luo Ri Yi, she is the glue of all of them if one day she asked them a favor would all of them comply to her.
Suddenly Bei Li Yan breath hitched, they say she just aweak girl who worth nothing for they're Sect if only they know, Bei Li Yan smile with excitement he can predict something amazing would happen around her, something beyond they're somprehension.
Lory notice Bei Li yan stare at he weirdly "What, do you want cand?" she lift the bag.
Bei Li Yan chuckles "As matter of fact…. I do"
