130 The Master and The Inheritor! (1/2)

Old D summoned a portal while Fate picks up his 'toy' dice. Since Fate carried Faunia at his left shoulder, he can only play his dice with his right hand.

”Hahahaha! Old D! It seems like we are forgetting something.” Fate hinted in a joking, but obvious manner.

This made Old D halt from entering his portal. He took a deep breath and raised his cane slightly as if he wanted to 'tap' it again into the ground. But before he was able to do so, Fate slid his foot and filled the gap between the cane of Old D and the ground.

”Hahahaha! Old D, Relax!” Fate said, ”Hahahaha! It's my first time in the human realm! Can't you, at least, let me interact with them?”

Old D simply sighed and asked, ”What are you up to now, young Fate?”

”Just trust me Old D!” He said, ”Hahahaha! After all... It is our fate to meet each other. Don't you agree, human?”

Fate glanced towards a dead tree that was around a hundred meters away from them. Old D also followed his glance. But even after almost a minute, they were not able to detect any movement from that area.

What's even odd was that the wind blew past the withered leaves in the ground but it didn't move even a centimeter. However, Fate and Old D didn't need to be very observant just to notice the unusual phenomenon.

”Hahahaha! Friends! We mean no harm!” Fate shouted, assuming that the humans hidding behind the tree wasn't just able to hear him. ”I just wanna have a talk! Hahahaha!”

Hopeless, the three men could only 'cautiously' reveal themselves. A young man around his mid-20s leads two medium-haired guys, of the same age, with a grayish eye each.

Despite the young man's messy short hair, there was no trace of sweat on his face. He stared towards Fate and Old D with a frown whilst occasionally glancing towards the unconscious Faunia.

On the other hand, the two guys behind him sweat heavily out of fear. They even often glance at each other as if asking if it was right to go towards the two unknown strangers.

”Hahahaha! Great! Great!” Fate celebrated as the three men get closer to them. ”There's no need to be wary young men! I don't eat humans. Hahahaha!”

”W-We are just passing through this area and head towards the rumored Kingdom by the sea!” The young man said as they close, less than fifty meters, from Fate and Old D. At this moment, Old D and Fate felt a sudden increase in their weight as they were being pushed inches deeper into the ground.
