34 Chapter 34 Soul Crystal

It was Lady Tsiru and her group.  Guffian who was standing beside her also narrowed his eyes to look at Althea. Then he slowly turns towards Walion Mori and shouted, "I asked what is going on here"

Walion Mori who was given a huge shock after he learned that the mysterious lady is Althea was pulled out from the shock by Guffian's shout. He couldn't help but get angry, "who are you to meddle in our business? What has it got to do with you?"

Guffian frowned and was about to teach Walion Mori a lesson when Hexan moved in front of Walion Mori and explained, "This Lord here, please forgive my young master he has been given a huge shock now. It is like this, we had a few misunderstandings with the lady over there and as the matter got worse, we had to exchange blows with each other"

After noticing the beast symbol on the swords carried by the guards behind the lady and the man, Hexan immediately knew that the newcomers are from the central region and are not someone they can afford to offend or provoke.

Lady Tsiru heard what Hexan said and stopped her track, then turn to look at Hexan and asked, "You guys couldn't even take down a low-level mage with that line up of yours"

Lady Tsiru noticed that apart from Walion Mori and Hexan there are two other high-level practitioners and one mid-level practitioner. 

Hexan nodded, "she had a mid-level beast by her. She was able to take our young master as a hostage with the help of beast"

Althea stood there silently leaning on the wolf. She didn't respond to any of them.

Lady Tsiru beamed her eyes and looked around, "interesting, a low-level mage was able to exchange moves with two high-level practitioners"

Guffian followed lady Tsiru's gaze and came to understand the situation. "Looking at the surrounding it seems there was a big fight"

After looking around, Guffian's gaze landed on Hexan once more, "Tell me in detail about the fight"

When Hexan met eyes with Guffian, he couldn't help but shiver. He immediately recounted everything in detail.

"The reason I decided to meddle in your affairs is that the lady over there had managed to tame a mid-level beast while at the low-level strength. She is indeed a genius. I have already recognized her level and that beast level the moment I came here. But looks like she is full of secrets", Lady Tsiru said.

Lady Tsiru turned her attention towards Althea and asked, "why is your name Althea? And what is your surname?"

Althea looked at Lady Tsiru in disdain, "Why? What's wrong with my name? you are acting like my name is a nightmare to you"

That was indeed the case for Lady Tsiru. She was reminded of Althea Rion, the former sovereign of the Hall of Mage. But she would never admit it, she smiled and said, "Little girl, it's just that your name reminded me of an old foe. Never mind, I wanted to ask if you like to follow me back to the central region. I am sure with your talent, you will be able to make a name for yourself soon in the whole land of Dura. Besides you have a dual spirit light. What do you say?"

Listening to Lady Tsiru's soft voice as if coaxing a child, Althea couldn't help but want to puke. She knows how much of a bitch Lady Tsiru is behind her pretty face. 

"Why is it her again? She is nothing but a trash with damaged spirit seed?" Walion Mori couldn't help but shout out.

Lady Tsiru frowned and look at Walion Mori, "what, did someone also tried to scout her?"

Hexan immediately nodded and explained with lightly pinching walion Moti's hand behind him. "A few days ago, someone from the Mage division of Rainbow Cloud academy invited her after witnessing her abilities but she turned down the invitation. At that time, we were not aware that she is a beast tamer too"

Lady Tsiru nodded and look at Althea, "If you are not interested in joining the Rainbow Cloud Academy, what about joining the Beast Tamer Organisation! You won't be treated unfairly"

Before Althea could open her mouth to turn down the invitation, she heard a familiar voice.

"Our Rainbow Cloud Academy is a good place for those with dual spirit lights. Young lady, please think about it again!"

Everyone turned to look in the direction of the voice. Soon,  a man in green robes appeared in front of them. It was Lord Sovyo.

Althea couldn't help but curse her luck. One after another old acquaintances keep popping out. 

"Thank you for thinking highly of me, but I have no interest in joining either one of the forces", said Althea preparing to leave. 

Lady Tsiru and Lord Sovyo had already made arrangements from before about the deal they made back at the inn. They looked at each other and lightly nodded. 

Lord Sovyo, hurried to stand in front of Althea. "This Young Lady here, please think over it again. We don't want to force you unless necessary"

At this moment Walion Mori and the group were ignored. Looking at Althea who was getting invitations from both the forces, he couldn't help but get angry, "She is just a trash. Why is everyone interested in her"

Althea couldn't help but frown listening to Walion Mori. Noticing the change in Althea, Lord Sovyo turned around to look at Walion Mori and his guards. Then with a wave of his hand, six sharp swords materialized from his red spirit light flew out and immediately took their lives.

Althea's pupil constricted, the heir of the Mori clan died just like that! But she doesn't mind, sooner or later they were to die in her hands. Since Lord Sovyo had taken care of them, naturally Althea was happy. 

"Look, I took care of them for you. I have done you a favor", said Lord Sovyo with a smug.

"Thank you, Lord," said Althea indifferently.

"Why don't you repay the favor by joining the Rainbow Cloud Academy", Lord Sovyo bend down and look at Althea.

"Lord Sovyo, we were the first one to found her", shouted Guffian.

Lady Tsiru frowned, she had already made a deal with Lord Sovyo that she would hand over the best Beast Tamer to him in exchange for the Nine Turns Blue Vine. Earlier when she spotted Althea, she knew that she had found a genius so she immediately contacted Lord Sovyo who was waiting for the news back at twin lake city secretly. Lord Sovyo had given her a soul crystal, so if she crushed the crystal which had a soul mark on it, Lord Sovyo would immediately come to know of it and her location. That is how Lord Sovyo came here in time.
