The Search for Snowdrop

Lotd Guan Yin rang the doorbell of Snowdrop's house. Vine answered it. "Greetings to Lord Shang ti and Lord Guan yi", she bowed.

"Are the rest of you in?" Lord Guan yi asked. " Well, everyone is here except Snowdrop".

Lord Guan yi and Lord Shang ti went in.

" Call everyone"

" Yes"

Soon, Vine, Poppy, Jasmine and Tulip were seated before Lord Guan yo and Lord Shang ti.

"So, all of you saw Snowdrop when she returned three days ago?" Lord Guan yin asked.

" Yes", they answered.

" Cherry blossom, how did she explain her disappearance for 2000 years?"

" Well, she told me she didn't remember anything and that she woke up in nature realm", Cherry answered

" Nature realm?"

Cherry blossom nodded.

Lorf Guan yin had gone back to her palace. A guard walked in. He had been summoned by her.

"Greetings, Lord Guan yin", he bowed.

"I want you to send troops to search the entire fairy realm for Snowdrop"

" Yes".

Lord Shang ti walked in as the guard left.

" Shang ti, i thought that you had left for the heaven realm"

"Not really. I was thinking of staying back for some time to help out".

" Thank yoy but it won't be necessary. I'll be able to handle it myself"

" In that case, I guess I'll be taking my leave now".

"I can't believe that I, an important fairy and the one who saved his life, is being reduced to a maid in this place. Doing good deeds seemed very easy but it actually isn't. They say it attracts rewards but my condition has proved otherwise",Snowdrop muttered to herself.

" Do you understand?" the maid who had been explaining her duties to her asked.

"Yes. I have to ensure that the room is tidy at all times and obey all his orders"

" Since you've understood everything, I'll leave you to your work. And remember, when vowi g to the devil king, you musn't rise without his permission"

'What a torture', Snowdrop thought, " got it", she said.

" Good. I'm guessing you've never deen the devil king before. That's why i told you".

"Thank you" and the maid left.
