Chapter 201: [Bonus Chapter]Gossips (3)
The two didn’t want to back down, so their settlement was dragged on for a day. Until a rumor has spread that the Head Priest Nicol, is completely out of the Ris Clan. There were even talks that Nicol had to vow an Oath of the Soul, promising that he would never use the Flesh-Eating Fire that was thought to him since he was young.
Luis just shrugged his shoulder about this. It is not a loss to Nicol since he can use his True Element now that he Reawakened.
"No, My Lord. We made a clear distinction on each other’s boundary." Nicol answered Luis with a smile.
"No regrets?"
"Totally, My Lord. My leaving the Clan is actually the last grace that I could give him as his son. It is alright for him to hate me strongly now."
Luis caught on to the meaning of the handsome moon elf. Right, this must have something to do with Nicol’s ambition to rectify the rotten practices of the Moon Elf race. "Well, you can count on my support for you, Nicol."
The group proceeded to eavesdrop on the gossip mill that the resting workers were churning. They moved from one tree to another, practicing their stealth skills and the physical adeptness of each other, all the while they were gathering information.
It was a fruitful errand overall since Luis learned a lot from listening to his subjects’ unhindered talk.
Feeling accomplished, Luis didn’t let himself miss this opportunity to mentor Ilian and Olyn and give them tips he could muster as a survivor of a crazy apocalyptic world.
"Illian, you are pretty quick on your feet. However, you are a bit behind... "Luis teasingly drawled his words at the tense Moon Elf before him. They are currently on their way back to the settlement. "In your body awareness. I could see that you are relying on your instincts as you fight, but that is not enough. That is if you want to best your enemies. You need to know how to dodge by your brains to become completely untouchable."
"Eh, how did–" Ilian looked at the Moon Elf Lord with eyes as wide as saucers. How did the Moon Elf Lord know that he was only moving instinctually?
"Because I am the Moon Elf Lord. I will tell the kids that you want to play dodgeball with them. Use that as a way to practice your body awareness, okay?" Luis promptly answered.
"Wh-what is a dodgeball, M-my Lord?" Ilian has a very bad feeling about this.
"You will know what it is once the right time comes. But to give you a clue, the kids will throw things at you, so brace yourself," Luis warned with the warmest and kindest smile on his face, earning a snicker from his lover.
"Come on, you’ve seen how the Moon Elf Lord fluidly dodged the combined attacks of three four-star warriors. He did that without using any of nature’s power at all. Who knows? Maybe you might be able to pull something like that in the future. Once that happens, you can stand against opponents stronger than you without suffering any injuries." Xagrien tapped Ilian’s shoulder.
"Alright," Ilian acquiesced. Instantly convinced by Xagrien.
"You two are not having a love affair behind my back, right?" Luis joked at the two.
Their faces turned into wrinkled prunes hearing that.
"My Lord, please don’t say such an atrocious thing," Ilian totally forgot that he was talking to the Moon Elf Lord, who was causing him nervousness.
"Oh, okay. Hehehe."
Xagrien approached the Moon Elf Lord and touched the flat stomach of the Moon Elf Lord. "We will talk after this."
"Ehem," Luis swiftly brushed away the hand caressing him. This man simply loves to do it in public! His perverted self cannot keep up!
"Olyn, you have great battle senses now. I applaud you for that. You are working hard, and it shows in your improvement! Congratulations!" Luis smartly used his innocent servant to escape his bothersome hot mate.
"Thank you, My Lord," Olyn blushed upon hearing this compliment from his Lord.
Luis nodded and put on a genuine smile that made his phoenix eyes smaller. "The only flaw I can point out in your movements is that you tend to be slightly stiff. It must be because of your habits as you conjure the earth starting from your feet. That is understandable. Actually, it always surprises me that you can lift heavy weights despite your slim body.
However, you must improve your flexibility while attaining that superior physical strength."
"Because of that, you will join me in doing an excellent exercise," Luis excitedly held the arms of his servant. It might be his illusion, but he has felt heavy these past few days. Perhaps it was due to his lack of physical activities these past few days.
His subordinates and Xagrien pointed out that he was resting or wasting away his energy by just hanging around the forest.
But this time, he ensures he will be in shape again!
"Let’s do yoga!"
"Hmm!" Olyn immediately nodded despite his cluelessness about what kind of exercise they would do.
"My Lord, watch out for overexerting yourself," Nicol quickly reminded Luis.
"Don’t worry, it is only a light exercise that is mainly about stretching out bodies," Luis smiled innocently.
’We are sticking up our asses. I can never tell that outright.’
"Uhmm, My Lord..." Legland suddenly called Luis.
"Yes?" This man has been silent for a while. Luis is expecting Legland to butt in and ask for advice since he knows that this man never missed asking for pointers from him regarding things that could make him stronger. But that didn’t come.
’I wonder what this man has to say?’
"I know we can’t control what others may think or say, but what if they worked against us in the end? Or maybe lies start to spread to the whole populace, making it the truth in the process? Can’t we do something to prevent that, My Lord?" Legland asked.
All of them stopped their walk and faced the Moon Elf Lord.
Luis answered them with a confident smile.
’So, all this time, you are thinking about this, huh? Not bad, Legland.’
"It is indeed detrimental for us, who are still in the early process of unification, to have lies spreading around. It could become termites that will slowly tear our trust in each other, and we could not let that happen." Luis rubbed his chin as he looked at his subordinates, who were looking at him with anticipation.
"Don’t worry, I can solve that." Luis stretched his body leisurely, looking as if he wasn’t bothered.
Seems like he needs to do his expertise now, huh?
