Chapter beginning of long journey . 1 : beginning of the story
East Continent ,
Somewhere in East Continent of Saint Origin Universe , there exist a small city name Qi Flame City that is ruled by City Lord Gong Cai , a Level 9 Qi Jing Realm master .
Inside this small city , were two young kids .It was snowing because of December. It was heavily snowing which is why the residents of the Qi Flame City were embraced in warm clothes. Snow were blanketing the streets and roofs of buildings.
Warm bonfire were burning around the city while people were laughing and having conversation with each others - group talk.
But in this cold yet warm atmosphere , there were two kids running around the streets and passing through passageways.
"Come , come , here " a kid in his 7 called a girl in her 6 . He was wearing a very loose shirt and a small half pant , revealing his rest of foots . He was quite good looking . While the girl has pretty big eyes and red lips. Soft and snow white skin , long black hairs while silver eyes . Small and cute yet beautiful. Wearing simple and plain clothes , she was like an angel.
Shaking in cold , she was feeling her whole body would freeze.
"Tian Yue , hurry up , or you will get frozen till your death " the boy shouted while shaking in cold .
"brother Kong Sheng , please wait for me . I , I can't move . My , my leg can't move . I feel very cold and numb " little Tian Yue said while shaking. Her voice slowly began to become dim and hard to speak because of cold .
"What ?" Kong Sheng , a 7 year old boy shouted. He began to move toward her while leaving footprints behind " you are such a clumsy and weak girl . What can I do about you "
Tian Yue looked embarrassed so she lowered her head down . After approaching near her , Kong Sheng bent down while facing his back to her and said " hurry , I will carry you on my back so ….so just get on "
Looking at his back , Tian Yue nodded shyly while blushing slightly. Slowly she got on his back while Kong Sheng stood up and began to run.
While running on a way , Kong Sheng said " jeez , you are such a weak . You should train your body more "
Listening to him , Tian Yue pouted and said " it's not that I am weak . It's just that you are too strong compare to me "
"Haha…of course , I am . Since I always do exercise "Kong Sheng giggled. "Hm.. but I too do an exercise so why am not strong like you ?" Tian Yue asked .
"How should I know ?" Kong Sheng replied.
……
Running for a while , he finally arrived inside the forest where there was a cave . Walking inside the cave , they reached inside a huge room . 10 meter cube room. The cave has small cave mouth only enough to fit young children while long tunnel and a huge open space inside.
When they reached the end of the cave which was a hidden room , they were greeted by a warm bonfire , burning inside the cave. There was a small bed made of branches and leaves .While some bird meats were roasting in that flame.
Letting Tian Yue off from his back , Kong Sheng asked Tian Yue " so how is it ? I made this all myself . From today we shall live here . It's good that I luckily found this secret Cave before the winter "
"I hunted the birds myself using my supreme hunting skill , I was able to make bed using leaves and branches too "
Looking at the fire , meat and bed , Tian Yue began to shed tears . She was right now feeling extremely emotional . Until now , in her life she and Kong Sheng has only been living on the streets while suffering the harsh reality of painful life . They would search foods on the dustbins or tries to steal foods from others , there were many times when they had to sleep with their empty stomach.
"Brother Kong , you mean we will be living in a warm place as this from today ?" She began to shed tears from her eyes before she looked at Kong Sheng. While Kong Sheng also looked at her and smiled gently before wiping her tears with his hand and telling her " silly , why are you being so emotional ? It's … it's not that big deal "
A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation.
Although he said that , he too was feeling emotional since he was raised on a street with no family but by himself. Since his birth , he didn't have even a chance to know who his parent were and why they abandoned him ?
Tian Yue couldn't help but hug him and begin to cry while shouting in happiness. While Kong Sheng just patted her back and head , gently.
…..
Sitting near the bonfire , Kong Sheng and Tian Yue were eating roasted meat of a bird and rabbits.
"It's so yummy , I have never ate a meat before " Tian Yue was eating meat first time in her life so she was feeling very excited.
"It's so delicious " she kept on saying.
Looking at Tian Yue , Kong Sheng just smiled as if he was just happy by seeing her happy. He said " don't eat in hurry , there are lots of meat there so don't hurry . You may chock yourself "
Cough* Cough* Cough*
Just after his words ended , Tian Yue began to cough because she successfully manage to chock herself with huge piece of meat.
"You clumsy girl , here drink this water " picking up a bamboo bottle that was placed near bonfire to warm the water inside , Kong Sheng hurriedly made her drink the water . Patting her back and rubbing it slowly , he tried to calm her.
"I can't even imagine what would you had done if I wasn't by your side " he sighed while looking at her , helplessly .
After successfully drinking the water , Tian Yue hurriedly hugged Kong Sheng which greatly surprised Kong Sheng.
"What…what are you doing ? Suddenly hugging me like that " he felt little embarrassed when she suddenly hugged him.
But more than that , her words surprised him the most. Her words were shaking as if she was afraid to lose him " don't say…like that . I don't want to even think about the world without you. I just want to be with you and …and just be by your side " she was afraid to lose him.
"…" Kong Sheng watched her while feeling confusion . He was just a child and so do Tian Yue which made them unable to understand the true value of ' I don't want to even think about the world without you ' . But he thought that she was just being clumsy like always.
"You silly girl , stop talking nonsense " with that , Kong Sheng gave a knock on her head for talking nonsense. He said while pretending to be angry " who taught you to speak such an emotional lines , it nearly got me "
"Hehe…it's a secret " Tian Yue playfully said while rubbing her head. While hearing her , Kong Sheng's face twisted in irritation.
"Whatever " with that both of them continued their dinner .
……
It was night and Tian Yue couldn't sleep tonight. She was blushing while feeling all shy - shy. Why you ask ? Because beside her , Kong Sheng was sleeping as well . The bed made by Kong Sheng was small so they were touching each other's back even though both were facing in different directions.
" ah..little Tian , are you awake ?" Suddenly she heard Kong Sheng calling her . In embarrassment and panic , she answered " yes , yes , I am "
"Oh …okay , why are you not sleeping than ?" He asked.
"But.…but it's just too hard to sleep " she replied shyly .
"…" Kong Sheng didn't said anything but kept silence , he just nodded.
"…" the cave was silent since both of them didn't said anything and only kept a silence.
Just like that both of them fell asleep after a long time later .
……..
Next day , Early in the morning
Inside a cold forest where snows were falling and covering all the trees and lands , there were two kids warming up their body while doing some light exercise.
"1 ..2…3…4…5" those 2 were doing push up , one was Tian Yue while another was Kong Sheng.
"1020…1021…1022. .." Kong Sheng was very energetic so do Tian Yue yet both of them were world apart when they were doing push up.
"It's not fair brother Kong" Tian Yue pouted unhappily while she complained " it's only been some minutes and you are already at 1022. Just tell me too what are you secretly learning in order to become so strong "
Kong Sheng kept on doing push up , even after reaching 1022 , he was still active. It was as if his limit doesn't stops in 1000 or 2000.
"Little Tian , I am telling you the truth. Since I have learned how to talk and speak , since the day I have learned to feel the life , I am always like this . You may not believe me but there was one time I was even able to see pass through walls and objects. That isn't just end of the story , there was even a time when I was gonna get beaten by groups of adult , at that time something very strange happened. As if lights took my side and protected me by burning everyone that tried to hurt me "
With a disbelieving tone , Tian Yue said " don't lie to me , how can someone see through walls and how can a light protect someone ? If light can protect you than I bet that in daylight no one is your match since light comes from sun and holds power of sun "
Kong Sheng nodded and felt like her words makes sense but at the same time he also felt that , that wasn't the case. He touched his neck while he was pondering something. It was back than when he suddenly felt an intense pain in his neck and that was the time a strange mark appeared around his neck before disappearing.
Was that also an imagination ?
There was a time when a strange wheel appeared out of his tip of his head . It was very huge and had Ancient Inscriptions and Runes when he was about get killed by falling from cliff .
Was that too his imagination ?
He shook his head and just let it on side.
This wasn't time for him to think something like that.
But the strange dream he always see in his sleep and a strange sword that he sees makes all no sense.
What were this all thing trying lead him into ?
