Chapter 74

I take her hands . "Though you have a teenage girl look, you are more than a thousand years old, right?"

Her hands are small and pale . She has ancient tattoos on the back of her hands . She grins at me and says, "We are already friends?"

"I am not a friend of oracles . " I twist her hands . "Why are you here?"

"It hurts, friend . " She leans closer to me . Her cheeks blush red . "You can hurt me more . I do not mind at all . "

I let go of her hand right away . She is a m.a.s.o.c.h.i.s.t!

"Look, your husband is still trying to fight his way into the barrier . " She c.o.c.ks her head proudly . "He is just a king-ranked . An ant in front of a demon . "

I stomp on her foot . She cries in pain and kneels down . Her face turns redder and she looks up with misty eyes .

"Hurt me more please . "

She is a lost cause .

"Please! Please!" She grabs my foot and wails, "More . . . More . . "

I ignore her pleas and look at Sung Jun . He is chanting and summoning freaking lightening on the barrier . His father is yelling at him to stop . Ms Sung suddenly appears behind his father and knocks him down .

"Son, I will help you . " She creates signs with her finger in the air . The invisible sign turns a giant golden letter and falls toward the barrier . It blasts on the barrier .

"She is good, considering that she is just a violet level magician . " The Oracle let go of my leg . "But not good enough . "

"Mother, please stop," I say to Ms Sung . "Sung Jun, you also stop . She isn't hurting me . "

They stop when they hear me . Sung Jun moves closer to the barrier . His hands are already healed . I have no idea when he became a king-ranked shaman . It was probably before we met again . What did he eat as a child? Becoming a king-ranked shaman in modern times is nearly impossible . There are not enough pure spiritual energy or resources . Reis mentioned once that cultivating was tough for humans . Only those who were greatly chosen and blessed by heaven can ever surpa.s.s the impossible .

As for me, I can't cultivate because my body cannot store spiritual energy . I have already taken a different path to become strong .

"Woman, you can't even break this barrier . "

I find the owner of the voice sitting on the floor behind me inside the barrier . I have not seen Reis coming or going . Where did he just pop up from?

"Oh, you are a G.o.d!" The girl crawls away from me . "Apologies! I was just curious about her . "

Reis licks his paws casually . He doesn't spare a glance at her .

"What the h.e.l.l are you doing here?" I crack my knuckles . "I told you that I will complete your task later . "

"Woman, you cannot expect me, your sponsor, to let you walk into the domain of the other G.o.d alone . " Reis rolls his mismatched eyes . "Your well being is my responsibility . Besides, it is not your choice . It's me who will decide . "

"Reis!"

He looks at Sung Jun . "I didn't expect that a mortal could hide his true rank from a G.o.d . You surpa.s.sed my expectations, but this makes you dangerous to my slave . I cannot let her stay in the vicinity of someone like you . "

"What are going to do?" Sung Jun slams the barrier . It burns his skin, but he doesn't care .

"Stop it!" I try to run to him, but a force pulls me back . I fall on my b.u.t.t . No matter what, I can't get up . When I try to use my magic, I find it blocked .

"What's going on?" I stare at Reis . "Why are you doing this to me?"

"You have to use it plenty later . So, save your energy . " Reis put his claw on my lips . "Stay quiet . "

"Hey, swindling oracle, tell him his future and about his previous life . "

The oracle lifts her head slightly . "As you wish, as you wish, my G.o.d . "

I open my mouth, but no words come out of my mouth .

"Oracle, break the barrier . . . let me in . . . " Sung Jun screams at us .

He changes his form and turns human with a flash of light . I can't move an inch while I watch him open the dimension gate right there .

"If you want her back, better listen to what this oracle has to say," He says to Sung Jun . "Or better see what she has to show . "

He picks me up in his arms . I can't even fight him back . My voice, my magic and even my movements are blocked by him . I try to look back at Sung Jun, even my neck doesn't follow my wishes . I am completely paralyzed .

"Time to go . "

I take her hands . Though you have a teenage girl look, you are more than a thousand years old, right? Her hands are small and pale . She has ancient tattoos on the back of her hands .
