Chapter 450: The lonely river village

Maddox looked Scarlet up and down. Her weird blue-green eyes judging her.

"You are actually serious, oh wow." She exclaimed. "But I don’t know, living here is very expensive and you look poor."

Scarlet blinked and glared at Maddox.

"Hey," she shouted, unhappy.

Which part of her looked poor?

Maddox scrunched up her nose and sighed. "You are one of those people who don’t like hearing the truth."

"Will it kill you if you keep quiet?" Scarlet shoved Maddox’s head and then pouted.

How much did it cost to live here anyway? She could just ask Lythia for a loan on whatever currency was paid here and she could pay it off slowly.

It was too bad that she had already spent a lot of crystals on the other house already.

"Where are you?" she heard Severus asking in her mind.

"Lonely river village." she answered.

"The posh place!!" Severus exclaimed. "How did you get there?"

"Do you remember Maddox?" she asked.

"The old man that turned into young girl, I can never forget him even if I tried. He is a sensation on the forum, not just for that but he....err...she is already number thirty on the leaderboard. You are seven hundred two. I can’t believe another newbie is beating us to the punch. You brought his soul over, don’t you feel betrayed?"

Ignoring his last words, she replied, "He...I mean she lives here in the posh place. I don’t care what it takes, we are moving here or my name is not Scarlet Su, the hound."

"Technically the hound is not your name." Severus reminded her.

"Stop correcting me and find out how we can move here or you will be eating broccoli for the next foreseeable months." she threatened.

"Hey," Maddox tapped her on the back.

She looked at the girl and raised her eyebrows.

"Whatsup?" she asked.

"Is it true that the third princess is marrying into the Lunar federation?" Maddox asked.

Scarlet knew that Maddox had ended up in the Lunar federation. Her desire for vengeance never faded even in death.

She had also taken half of the things in the storage bracelet which she had given Scarlet. It was mostly the mechas, ships, storage pods, food supplies and the like.

It was not surprising that she would ask a question like this one.

"Not if the seventh prince and the third princess can help it. As far as I know they are already plotting for a way to get her out of it. The best plan they have so far is to get rid of her purity as soon as possible."

That was the plan which she heard from the birds that the seventh prince proposed.

Maddox stretched her arms and sighed.

"Tell them to hurry it up. The ruling family of the Lunar federation is getting desperate. The rebels have gained ground and support.

They have infiltrated the palace, the ruling emperor can barely keep his eyes closed.

Their plan is to have a prince marry a princess from the Sun star empire as a shield.

As long as the princess is a hostage of the ruling family then your emperor will surely send support to keep the royal family in power.

They could also kill her and claim the rebels did it. Your emperor will surely be enraged and send supporting troops and aid.

Either way, it’s a win-win for the ruling family as long as they can get any princess from the Sun star."

"Wow, what diabolical minds they have." Scarlet scoffed.

She would have to tell Esong about this as fast as possible. He, the emperor, officials, Markey and mecha warriors were leaving for Solana for a neutral meeting between the Lunar federation and the Sun star empire. Of what use was it to meet when one party was being dishonest?

"Hey, I can’t get into the posh village." Severus complained.

Scarlet heard him and it came to her mind that she had simply found herself here. She had not paid an entrance fee and she did not know where the entrance to lonely river was.

She tilted her head to the right and looked at Maddox. "How do you come in and out of this place?" she asked.

Maddox smirked, opened her mouth and said, "You have to be level five and above. You also need to bear a mark given by Nyx or the gods. I told you, lonely river is not for everyone."

Scarlet looked away from Maddox, waved her hand dismissively and swallowed the jealousy in her throat.

"Yeah, yeah, special, blah blah blah. I heard you the first time."

She looked at Maddox and sighed unhappily. "I can’t believe you are what...level five or beyond? I got here first." she whined.

"I am a pure soul. You are a strong soul the difference between us is like that between a deity and a reaper." Maddox spoke braggartly.

"Bragging, you are just bragging." Scarlet mumbled. In her mind, she resolved to work harder on her soul cultivation.

Before the year ended she would have to be a level five soul cultivator or beyond. Then she would make Maddox eat her words.

"Who plays that flute by the way?" she asked her. It had not stopped for a single second since their arrival.

Maddox shrugged. She had no idea either, everyone here kept to themselves. It was called lonely for a reason.

For a while, Scarlet lost herself in the sound of the melody. She closed her eyes and smiled, wondering if this was what the souls Maddox ferried listened to as well.

It was a good way of comforting those who were on their last journey.

Before she knew it, she had been in lonely river village for four hours and she had even fallen asleep. It was Maddox who shook her awake, forcing her to open her eyes and awaken from a beautiful dream.

"I should work now, my boat is full. It’s time for us to say goodbye, temporarily." Maddox told her.

Scarlet stood up and stretched her arms as she yawned.

"That was some good sleep." she said.

Maddox put her arm through Scarlet’s and teleported her out of the village.

After one brief goodbye, Maddox left and Scarlet found her way back to Severus and they went back to the Blue star together.

As soon as she left, the doors belonged to the house that was said to belong to a natural born reaper opened.

The old deity and a male reaper with long snow white hair and red eyes alighted from the house.

"She will move here as I predicted." The old deity said.

"I will talk to Nyx." The white haired reaper said.

The old deity shook his head. He was unwilling to involve Nyx in this decision it seemed.

"No, I will give her the right myself. Nyx is a wild card, sometimes he goes crazy and does things against my will. I need her here, those children must grow up under your watch Kephus."

Kephus bowed and smiled. "I will mold them into the most fierce reapers my lord. One will stand against ten thousand."

"Good." The old deity said and vanished.
