Chapter-19 Cultivation and The priest

"He's alive! he alive, he's alive..............

Fucking hell can he just pause for a minute

I mean I know this weird naked man was really happy to see me alive

by his dancing and singing

But

It was damm near impossible to think with his loud voice ringing in my head

Much less hear what the fuck Pollux was yapping about

I thought by now I should have gained some sort of immunity toward these weird, crazy and scary situations

But this occasion was way out of my league

I was getting a migraine just by thinking about it

The first thing that boggled me that

I was here for a whole fucking month

I mean nobody thought I haven't seen David for some time where is he

Nobody thought of coming to check on me

And all that shit me nearly dying the, lake me and the other shit happened

Over a time period of a month

Fuck me!

Either my time perception is fucked or something else is going on

The second thing was the fucking naked man dancing and singing Al around Pollux

" he's alive, he's alive....................

Seemingly the man was invisible

Because the 8-foot giant bodybuilder of a man just walked through the naked man

And now he can't the naked man dancing circles around him

Holy fuck he's huge

I mean I have seen tall before obviously

My own past life father was a really tall man

But nothing can be compared to the well-toned musclehead of a titan standing in front of me

I came up only to his stomach

"What is wrong with you?" Pollux barked at me

Loud enough to surpass the loud signing

"Nothing just a headache" I answered rubbing my temples

He snorted and turned around and left me all alone once again

Well not really

The fucking naked man was still dancing and singing all around me now

That dammed singing was getting on my last nerve

I tried to calm myself by taking in deep breaths

but that singing was growing louder and louder

Anger came over me and I snapped

I shouted at the naked man

" SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!!! "

The tall man instead of shouting up and staying quiet

Like I expected him to do

Started to laugh merrily

"I can be seen and heard!" He declared as if the man had just won a million dollars in the lottery

And he began to dance and sing again

The anger turned into rage

And it felt good to be angry

I pounced on the man with speed and ferocity I had never displayed before

I cover 10 meters in a blink of an eye

The man stopped and smiled at me

And he spread his hands as if "go-ahead do your worse"

I soon a reached him grabbed his throat with one hand

Pinning him against the wall

I got real close to his face and whispered

"Your singing is pissing me off so would you please kindly shut the fuck up"

The man kept struggling against my grip

"Okay," I asked tightening my chokehold on his throat

"Yes, yes, yes" the naked man shouted sounding panicked

"Good"

I let go of him

But the man didn't drop to his knees wearing and shot trying to catch his breath

No, he just stood there looking at me in complete horror

My rage was still there

I wanted to bash this man's head in the wall

This shocked me and I tried to get that anger in control

"You can touch me," the man said

At first, I was confused then hit me

Pollux just went through this man just a few seconds ago

I looked back at the man in shock

The man stood up straight and gave a smile

He got closer to me

"You can touch me"

The world was numb.

My mind just wanted to switch off

This was just too much information

My body was still fresh, sharp as a tack from all the cool energy I was feeling run through my body

I was about to punch the man

Jump up and flee from this place

When suddenly

The guy slowly began stroking my hair with his palm

When did this dude get this close to me

My senses were sharper than ever

I could hear his breath

I felt his breath on my ear

It was gross,

But I didn't feel anything when his palm touched my skin

I wanted to run away

Even without this guy, I would have

been pretty nervous With this creepy room filled with non-human and human bones

and sick and disturbed relics

It was dirty,

But with this guy saying he was dead and Pollux walking through him

I was pretty sure he was dead

I was able to touch this dead guy

Bot just touch him but also hurt him

I felt a wave of nausea and dizziness

I wanted to leave

I wanted to go to my cell-like room

and have a nice long sleep

So that I could figure what the fuck was going on

I turned around to look for the exit

there was the door Pollux went through

But the naked man had come in between mean and the door

I wanted to go through him but for some reason, I didn't feel like hurting the guy

I looked closely at the man

he was no tall he was no 8-foot titan

But he was still respectable 6 foot plus he was bald

Not just that there wasn't a single speck of hair anywhere in his body

Even down there with his 4-inch pecker, he was spotless

He had no muscle to speak of

He was extremely thin that I could see his rib bones

"Can you move aside I would like to leave?" I asked the man politely

The man shook his head practically

Okay, screw this I will punch my way out

Wow, wow what is wrong with me

I wasn't the best person in the world but in no way was I short-tempered

I once again looked at the man

he was rattling his head like a dog trying to get shake something of

I tried once again

"Hey there look I need to leave so that I can get some rest"

The man started to shake his head even more frantically

I tried to stay calm and keep the anger down which starting scare me a little

"Why not?"

"The priest is still near," he said waving his hand

" he is watching "

Okay now I was listening

"Who is watching?" I asked

"The priest, the priest is watching"

"What priest?" I asked,

"who is this priest?"

"The priest is watching he is still watching"

Okay that made no sense

"You must act blind" he shouted

Okay that got my attention

If the bald naked man told me to act blind

You better believe I was going act blind

I had been living long enough in this world long enough to know that what is this meant

Was somebody is going on me to act dumb

So I did I sat down cross-legged and started to meditate

I began the visualization technique but before I could enter the lake

I noticed that I could still see the world around me

I even had the 360° vision

I noticed the there was white coloured waves like lines floating all around me

I had read that these were pure spirit energy waves that cultivator can feel and absorb

Now I could feel them this meant I could start to cultivate

I also noticed dust particles floating around but instead of the normal colour there were in all colours red, blue white yellow you name it was there

Now this I didn't know about

But among these particles, I felt and saw a five coloured dust particle

That instinctively I wanted to absorb

With pure instinct, I drew the partial into me and absorbed

I felt my body wash with energy

I could finally cultivate

......…...............................................

Outside the stone room where David was supposed to be practising

Edward and another man were standing there in a dark corner

Staring intently into the air in front of them their eyes unfocused

Suddenly the pair's eyes came into focus,

Edward immediately moved to the side into the light and bowed his head

The other man also moved and came out of the dark and into the light

The man was wearing a tattered and torn dirty white robe

His mouth was open in a rictus of a smile

His skin was pale and clammy

He had eye bags that were now black

His breath turned to mist every time he exhaled

His eyes were red

His eyes were so red that they could have been purple

The man had his jet black hair tied up in a bun atop his head

In his right hand, he held a strange-looking green staff with a white crystal ball

And with his left hand, he was stroking his thick black beard

Abruptly He turned to a corner

His smile grew wider

He kneeled down on the floor

"Excellent" he shouted his voicing sounding as if two people were speaking at once from the same mouth

The man bent down

A cat came out of the shadows toward the kneeling man

The man picked up the cat in his embrace

The cat began to purr loudly as the man scratches it's head

The man bowed toward Edward and whispered

"He's a friend of ours"

Edward raised his head and looked at the cat

Edward shuddered

The cat was mostly white with its back covered with a red and black coat

It had no eyes

"He is called Darkfang," the man said to Edward

"There no other like him"

Edward was visibly uncomfortable

His eyes were wildly moving around as if looking for an escape

Just then

Pollux came out of the stone room

Seeing Pollux Edward was relived and he moved toward him in flash

Pollux ignored Edward and turned to the man stroking the cat

"So, what is your verdict?"

The man's smile grew wider

The man bowed toward Pollux,

but in a way that made him look like a predatory cat.

"We have seen the apostle Pollux"

Pollux dismissed the wave of his hand

"Disperse with formalities Priest, "

"Just tell me what you think?"

The Priest raised himself up and gave Pollux a feral smile

"The boy is perfect," the priest said

"He is a little too weak now, but he will grow stronger in time"

The Priest knelt and put down the cat who walked into the shadows and disappeared

"Our suggestion would be to put the boy in the mines with the slaves"

Pollux nodded in approval

"A fair and fine suggestion I will make it happen"

Seeing that the conversation coming to an end

Edward hurriedly came over and fake coughed

Pollux looked at him irritated

But Edward wasn't scared

He raised his thumb and pointed it backside

Understanding flashed in Pollux's eyes

He turned toward the priest who was whispering to himself

"Are your preparation done?" Pollux asked

"Can we take on the Red star sect,"

The Priest shook his head

"We alone are not enough"

"We need help"

"You should summon Yasmin" he continued

"She can help us"

"She will be on our side, just like we are"

The man stroked his beard and grinned

Pollux and Edward both were stunned

Edward began to shudder uncontrollably

But Pollux regained his cool quickly

Pollux carefully looked at the Priest for a second

Then he nodded

"I will take your opinion to the council of brothers and then make a decision later"

"How long will that take?" Asked the Priest

"Not long, I promise you" Pollux answered

The first nodded

His right hand made a patter in the air

His shadow on the wall split into two and wrapped around him like two snakes were devouring him.

As soon as The Priest we're gone

Edward pointed at Pollux and shouted

"Have you gone mad?"

"One of him was bad enough now we have to summon another?"

Edward was so mad tag his face had gone red

And he was panting heavily

"How much will we have to sacrifice?"

Pollux turned toward the panicking Edward

Pollux didn't speak

He just brought his hand together like he was about to pray

As soon as the hand touched

A white hallow sprouted behind him and engulfed him

It was so bright that it lit up the room chasing the shadows away

Pollux created such a strong pressure that Edward was forced to his knees

"Are you questioning me?" Pollux asked as he approached Edward

"No!" Edward said with great difficulty

"Good, because you of all people should know what happens to those who do question me"

The hallow behind around pollux vanished as if it was never there, to begin with

Pollux mockingly looked at the struggling Edward

He abruptly grabbed Edward by his head hair and raised him

Up and brought him very close to his face

"You remember brother Sam don't you?"

He asked

Edward tried to nod his

Soon he realised that wasn't possible

So instead he shouted

"Yes, I do?"

Pollux let go of Edward's hair

Causing Edward to fall on the ground face first

"Good, now go call the rest of our brothers"

Pollux turned around

"We have a summoning to do"

With that went back into the stone room where David was meditating
