Chapter 333 - 333. Given a chance (1/2)
One of the men opened their eyes and saw Kendra sitting nearby with an interested expression on her face as she stared at one piece of leather in her hands. With a voice that seemed filled with softness, she spoke while still reading. ''You are awake? Your friend will need time...''
Strangely, he felt actually just fine. No dizziness, no drowsiness or any other side effect after energy was drained. He closed his eyes and his expression became desperate. ''My whole cultivation is gone?''
She turned her eyes towards him and chuckled. ''What dod you expect? You are still alive and still cultivator in the middle realm. You have a long life in front of you. If you cultivate properly you will gain your powers in a couple of centuries. Why getting upset about something you can get again.''
Her calm face and soft words made him bit dazed but then he shook his head. ''I needed just bit longer and I would have been gone to next realm and I would have left finally that guild.''
Her chuckle woke up the other man as well and she put down the scroll on the table. ''Your wonderful Illo said you are out that guild, so as now you are both completely useless to him. What are your plans?''
The first man just sat there and desperately held his head not knowing what to do while the other man stared at her. ''It seems you have some ideas as you brought us here. What do you plan to do to us?'' He stood up and walked towards her. ''If you plan to punish us for what we have done, do it quickly. We are cultivators and our soul will just perish.''
''How dramatic.'' She waved her hand and stool appeared near him. ''Sit down. even tho you are fine now, but you just healed. The side effects might not be as strong as usual, but I am not sure how strong my powers are and if I healed you completely.''
He plopped on the seat with a pale face. ''You... you... you are healer as well? Do you have light elements? And you healed us? Why? How?''
Isaa entered the room and sat right next to Kendra. ''Sister has knowledge of all known elements. Why do you think she was planned to become the next Headmistress of our sect? Unfortunately, her powers are quite high and she won't be leading the sect for a very long time. We both plan to go to the next realm soon.''
Another stool appeared next to him and Isaa pointed at it and looked at the still dazed man that sat on the bed. ''You, there... sit here. Let's talk honestly.''
He sat down and looked at the two women that suddenly showed a bedazzling smile. Somehow that smile held something they didn't like at all, the smile was filled with... intentions. Are they good or bad... they shall see.
Light from outside shone over Kendra's face making her look ethereal as the glow from her body covered her in a most amazing way. Her face became serious but not unfriendly. She stared at both of them seemingly straight into their souls and asked a question that they never would have expected. ''What about entering our sect and start from the beginning? We have amazing teachers and our cultivation school is something no one else tried.''
Both of them looked at each other and became curious. ''Why us? There are probably many that could join you. We are just basic cultivators.''
Both women chuckled. ''Basic? I can see your cultivation. You successfully produced your own pearl of power without anyone's help. How long did you need?''
The first man sighed. ''I had weak base so it took me almost half of the millennia to grow my pearl of power.'' I was reasonable to say that it was then understandable why he was so desperate.
The other man shook his head. ''I grew pearl of power under hundred years. I expected to grow my powers even higher there. But as soon I joined that guild my cultivation started slowing down more and more. It was strange. But when I finally grew my pearl of power many of heads in guild became weird towards me. After that my cultivation slowed even more and more. I was always thinking that its because maybe other laws comply in the middle realm. But when I think about it...''
Suddenly they could feel the darkness surrounding them and heard Isaa's words. ''Kendra, calm down. They are now basic cultivators. They can't handle your aura well. It's not their fault for this.''
The heavy pressure was gone and they could finally sigh in relief. ''What is going on?''
