The next morning, the Mogo woke up hearing his stomach rumble. Like an alarm clock, he called out for Gigo on the bed next to him. “Gigogigogigo GIGOOOOOO!!!!!”
Gigo, as if waking up from a nightmare also shouted “ Gigo! Wake up ! If we eat all the dung on the table our shit will become Fugo(fucking gold).!!!”
He looked around and found on his bed. He sighted when he realised it was just a dream but the kid was still yelling his name. “ Watcha want boy screaming so early in the morning.”
Mogo rubbed his tummy and put on a dejected expression.
“Hungry huh?” He picked up the lad but Mogo kicked his hands and hugged the gold coins in the basket.
Gigo smiled at him and threw a pouch at him “Cunning little bastard, I ain’t taking your coins anymore! I’m not like those goblins that stole my precious mountain! “
“FOGO!!!” Mogo kicked him again! While Mogo was catching the pouch, Gigo silently used magic to levitate a coin out of the basket. He didn’t know the Mogo was always alert.
“ A misunderstanding! A misunderstanding ! I was just checking if you were keeping your gold polished.” He laughed while putting on a sorry face. “It seems you are doing a good job. I think you should get a reward for putting so much effort in Logo(love of gold).”
Gigo put his hand on his mouth and coughed “ Yes! I’m going to reward ya with food! If it weren’t for me looking at your actions you would never get food”
Mogo looked at him with disgust while he put his golden coins in the pouch. Once the pouch was filled, the boy smiled like an angel as he payed with the pouch.
‘Creepy kid’ Gigo thought in his mind. “ Okay kid I’m going to search for some food to fill our stomachs. You, you’ll be staying in the library.”
He put his hand on his chin “ You’ll never believe where I found that library. Before when I was young and handsome, I was allowed to go to earth. I was peacefully polishing my money in my room.Remember kid always polish your coins when you have time to become successful in life.”
The Mogo replied him with a jingle of his coin pouuch.
“Where did I stop again? Ah yes! While I was doing that, I saw a man so cautious that he used invisibility magic while flying. He didn’t know that no magic can hide from the eyes of an imp! So I followed him secretly. He headed towards a cave hidden deep in a forest. I tip toed in the cave and… the man was dead. His body was cut into thousands of pieces. But my instincts didn’t fail me for I have found gold coins and this the library in the cave! “
After finishing his story Gigo flicked his hand and Mogo flew till the library. “Take care! I’m going to search for some food!”
The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement.
Mogo bounced on a bookshelf and fell on the ground. He hurriedly checked if the pouch was still with him in case the imp stole it.
He was relieved for it was just in front of him next to a book and a crystal. He took the pouch and curiously stared at the book and the magic stone. They should have fallen from the bookshelf when he bounced it.
He took the crystal but ounce he touched it, it dispersed and transformed into a rune and shot to his forehead.
“The heck? Wait… I can talk! No, I can talk in this language!!! Mogo thinks that the crystal caused all this.”
Mogo copied what Gigo did and put his hand on his chin “ Hhmmmmmmmmm, Mogo can also read what is written on the book’s cover.”
He picked up the book titled << Dark magic card arts>>. He opened the first page and saw a warning written in blood! << You whoever reads this book will need to form contracts with beings ‘from the other side’ which is EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. Once you turn the page, there is no stepping back!!>>
Too bad Mogo was too lazy to read the words he thought would be the ‘index’. He turned the page and saw a picture of a card deck. He touched the card deck picture out of curiosity and the book became light particles and entered his body.
He was surprised by the consequences of his actions and was about to scratch his head with his hand but felt a rectangular object in his hand. It was the card deck!!! All the things that happened were too confusing for him so he held his chin, closed his eyes and pondered for a while. ‘ Hmhhmmmmm…. what might be that <
Suddenly the book appeared in his mind. “So it went in my mind oooooo!!! I should start searching for its uses’
This time he thought to open the book in the ‘index’. The book slowly opened but didn’t show the warning but the index. Only <
When he opened his eyes, he looked very enlightened. It seemed like he understood all the secret of the world. Mogo looked at the deck in his hand and smiled mischievously “So this is what its used for!!! Mogo is going to surprise Gigo today!! ”
Gigo finally arrived home with food. He was welcomed with view of Mogo laying arrogantly on the floor.
A card deck appeared out of nowhere from his hand. He flicked his hands and the decks became fans. He started fanning himself. “Hm? So you’re finally here. Mogo didn’t notice at all. Mogo was too busy using magic to fan himself. This mighty magician has time to spare so take one card.”
Gigo was confused at what was happening in front of him ‘The heck is this lad doing? Since when could he speak? Has he gone stupid? Just gonna act along with him.’
Gigo awkwardly replied and took a card from the brat. “O-kay. So I take one card. The card I got was..”
Before he could continue, Mogo shouted at him as he shuffled his deck “No! Don’t tell it to Mogo. Gigo now put your card in the deck. Wherever you want.”
Gigo still continued acting as he put the card in the middle and Mogo started mixing the deck “ Wow so awesome!! The card went in the middle.” His eyes started getting teary. “They grow up so fast… already knowing how to do whatever you are doing. I’m so proud of you. Don’t worry I ‘might’ give you a bronze coin or two if you more efforts in the next years to come!“
Gigo was so good at acting that put his hands in his pockets to take a cloth to wipe his tears but he felt something ‘hard and long’ in his pants instead.
Mogo laughed and shouted “ Was that the card you took?”
“FOGO !!!!” That was the card he choose in the beginning!
“ Oh my Fogo!! What kind of sorcery is this? You have to teach me too!!”
Mogo was satisfied at his unmatched magic performance.”You are 100 too young to learn from me lad”
