Chapter 229: Teleportation Rune
~HMM~ I groaned, opening my eyes to the light overflowing within my vision.
"Thank the Gods!" Anna yelled in horror and relief as she hugged my body. Feeling her massive weaponry pressed tightly against my face, I didn't even question what was going on, rely enjoying the warmth.
"You have been out for about three days, my Lord." Anna pitifully exclaid as I suddenly felt a wave of pain assaulting my senses.
Opening my eyes wide, I could see her scream in panic, "SORRY!!!! I forgot to remove the needles from your acupuncture points. Forgive , my lord. But do not fret. I trained as a doctor all my life before I started working for Lady Yura." Anna exclaid as her hands moved with the graceful skill of a trained doctor.
"You did?" I questioned in confusion since Yura never ntioned her. I thought she was a random worker.
"Yes, a few years ago, she saved alongside many of my family mbers. I know it's strange, but my family was quite well known within Midgard, but I regret nothing. Joining Lady Yura was the greatest decision for . A life for a life."
Humming in response, I arose, checking my body. I could feel my dantian had expanded almost three tis its size, causing to grin, which equates to breaking through three tis. Feeling the overflow of qi rising from my body, I bellowed in laughter.
"Anna go out and buy more resources, and get so for yourself," I said as her face open wide. "After all, it never hurts to have a better cultivation."
Bowing, Anna left with tears in her eyes. I was sure she didn't tell the whole story, but it didn't matter. Watching as her shadow faded, my smile slowly vanished.
"Is there a reason your here?" I asked as a being of sin appeared before within a mist of demonic qi. Feeling death grip on my neck, I didn't freeze or panic, rely staring at the entity taking form before .
"Are you truly my master husband? For a devil to faint due to excess qi is strange and rather pathetic." Anya sharply said with piercing eyes.
Scrunching my brow, I snorted, "You truly have a mouth on you. It will be wise to hold it. I am not your master, but there is a reason Asmodeus ca to to train his daughter. Keep testing my patients, and I will break you."
"YOU!!!" SHe yelled in mocking laughter, "We are demons Arsene, such threats an nothing to us."
"Oh, then do keep testing , and we will see who has the final laugh. As a demon, you should understand what true torture is like." I replied with a fiendish grin, "Now tell why you are here?"
"The young mistress said to brand your arm with a rune. This should allow you to teleport through Midgard, assuming you know where to go. There is a five-second delay, so it's not very usable in battle. My sister and I both worked on this together to have the best result."
"Guess that makes sense," I said as she waved her palm. Feeling a heat pressed against my shoulder. I raised my sleeve, smiling at the pentagram depicting a sinister tree. Arching my lips I smirk, at the emblem they used.
"So, Anya, have you wondered what you would do if I decided to marry Ezra?" I asked, watching her body stiffen. Releasing a rather fiendish smile, "I hear the ninth level of hell is rather magical. Maybe you can beco friends with the Prince of Hell bael. I am sure he would enjoy the touch of a woman, and as a demon, I am sure your body and soul will be more than adequate to... release so tension. "
Releasing a depraved laugh, Anya backed away as my words rang deep into her mind. Flickering away from my sight, I smirked, "I will enjoy breaking her. I wonder how her sister will fare? She is not as rude, but both of them will need a deep lesson when speaking to . "
Sending my intent back into the ring I received from Anna, I continued to absorb any more resources to boost my cultivation. Falling into another trance, my body did not react like last ti as I began comprehending the various elents.
Days slowly began to pass like seconds before a gentle arm gripped my shoulder. Coming back to my senses, I shivered, leaping away at Roald standing in front of .
FUCK!!! That was scary; I need to learn to lay down formations that can defend against intruders.
"Sorry, but it's ti," he said with an apologetic smile. "Anna, let in. She doesn't know I snuck away. I am in a hurry."
Nodding lightly, I quickly went to find anna to collect the rest of my resources before leaving with Roald. Looking at the carriage waiting for us, I got comfortable before I sent Roald a deep stare.
"Why so quiet...Oh shit, I forgot Silvia." I yelled
"She is there already. Lord Orion brought her. He, along with his sister Auldreid will be there to help escort us back to the Vanir Clan."
Releasing a smile, I closed my eyes as ti began to fly. Trying to comprehend more about the elents, I slowly beca lost before I felt the carriage co to a halt.
Opening my eyes, Roald sent a deep look. "Please do not anger these people, Arsene. Gandir is known for being strict."
Stepping out of the carriage with indifference, the first person to et was quite the surprise as I gaze at the rather vibrant smile upon Ezra in her french maid uniform.
"It's always a lovely sight to you in such a magical outfit," I said as she snorted.
"Were you just gonna leave without saying anything?" She asked in a dark tone.
"Have Mare create you a phone, and we can talk whenever. I was actually going to ask Asmodeus for his number. I just don't know how to go about doing it yet."
Rolling her eyes, my arms wrapped around her waist as she opened her eyes wide in shock, "My dear future wife, please do not worry. I Arsene Snow will call you every day. Please do not cry, for I shall be a call away.
Pushing away, Ezra gave a cold death stare stomping her feet in anger, "Arsene, you prick."
vanishing from my sight, I laughed before turning to Roald, a little bewildered. "Shall we? Let's get going. I am sure Mr. Strict is quite angry."
Shaking his head, "Arsene, please don't ang— "
"It's fine, Roald," A dark, powerful voice called out as I felt a chill run down my spine. Narrowing my gaze, the elder ring within my left eye began to glimr as black lightning overflowed from my body.
"Oh, quite a feisty one, but Mr. Arsene, I don't care of your status within the sect. If you dare pull that type of shit again, I will personally send you to Helheim." A rather muscular half-man with a vicious gash upon his right eye tracing down his cheek said with a dark, ruthless light.
Studying his middle age appearance, I scrunched my brow, "A dwarf?" I whispered as he nodded.
"What? never seen one such as myself?" He coldly rebutted, circling my body with a scrutinizing glare. "I expected to see you yesterday, but here you are. Do you know how long I waited?"
"I..."
"I don't care, Mr. Snow." the Half-Man coldly spat, "I am in charge of your training, and I don't take crap from little shits like you. Even if Silvia vouches for you, follow my rules, and we will not have a problem. Are we clear?"
Opening my mouth wide, all I could do was laugh. Never in my life had I t soone daring to speak to in such a manner. Raising his large yet small arm, the Dwarf spoke.
"Respect is earned, boy, so what will you do?" He asked, causing to think for a mont.
Observing the dwarf and the scars upon his palm, many thoughts ran through my mind. He wasn't particularly handso, falling in the ugly category, especially with the large, tough-looking wrinkles upon his face.
Raising my palm, I shook his hand as he smiled, "Well done, boy, had you not shaken my hand, I would have kicked your ass so hard, not even your mother would have recognized your deford grimace. The na is Gandir, Elder of the Inner sanctum of the Vanir's."
