Mysterious old man

Above the dark clouds of the sky, the sound of thunder roared and five colored lightning resounded over the clouds, the flash of the five colored lightning illuminated the silhouette of two figures. They sat legs crossed at the highest peak of the mountain which was being constantly struck by the lightning, however, these figures didn't seem bothered by this fact and instead acted obliviously.

At the peak of the mountain, the two figures gradually came into view. One was an old man, with straight combed long gray beards reaching his feet, his hair was unbound but it stuck to his back no matter how much the wind blew behind him. While, the other figure was a young man with a gourd on his back, and his short spiky hair was auburn exaggerating his fierce but handsome looks to the core.

The old man had a calm expression however, the atmosphere around seemed as if it was in an entirely different dimension with the ancient aura his every move emitted, beside him the handsome young man looked unbothered by all of this.

At this moment the old man, whose eyes seemed to be filled with void and emptiness suddenly opened his mouth and muttered calmly, clearly intrigued by the young man.

"Young lad, the primordial one of destruction, what grave crime have you committed that you got yourself locked in such a terrible place? Besides with your status, you obviously ain't a God king of this place…" The old man asked with curiosity oozing from his voice, his void and empty gaze held an interesting look in them as he stared at the young man with a gourd on his back.

The aura of the young man was fierce and noble, even more so aloof that calmed the surrounding space around him.

After being looked at by the old man, a smile began to appear on the cold expression of the young man."You're right, am indeed not from this place but a realm far away from this place, my intention was to travel the various realms outside my world, after reaching the peak of my world considering the fact I am the ninth God-king, the lord of the destruction. However, it seemed my luck ran out when I met an opponent I couldn't defeat, and as the result of my failure he took me as part of his collection." He said as he gritted his teeth, but soon calmed down he had longed since accepted his failure but not being killed was worse than being kept as spoils of war.

The old man had a look of surprise, and his expression was filled with a bit of shock and understanding as he looked at the calm young man. Despite not giving much explanation, the old man understood the meaning behind his words.

"What…a strange young lad.."The old man finally realized how strange the situation of the young man was, not to mention he had been locked up for countless years.

"I'm more surprised that you are still alive, even when stuck in this place."

The young man only shook his head, with resignation.

Just at that moment, there was a loud burst of laughter.``I can already imagine that old fart expression when he realized he couldn't kill you so he decided he might as well lock you up after suffering a loss. Young lad, you really are interesting, now tell me what's your name?"

The old man said, as he looked at him this time the ancient aura affecting the atmosphere had long disappeared making him look nothing but ordinary. His attitude at this point was like that of a grandpa after not seeing his grandson for a long time.

"Primordial Sango." the young man looked at the old man, before muttering his name.

"Then Sango..if I told you I could take you out of this place, what would you say?" The old man suddenly said something shocking, and at the same time, a large grin could be seen on his expression.

Sango raised his brows in surprise, as he looked at the old man wondering if he was joking or not, however all he could see was a face filled with wrinkles and ghostly pale expression, while his eyes were filled with void and emptiness, and they looked darker than even the darkest night.

However, Sango's next words surprised him.

"What's the point? Even if I leave this place, wouldn't it trigger the ancestral b*stard rage to even eliminate my home world? If such were to happen, I wouldn't be able to hold myself back from the endless guilt. So I prefer sitting here until I eventually rot away."

"Hahaha…Young lad, you seem to be underestimating this old man too much, what if I say that not only will I bring you out of this place, but I can also take care of that old fart's wrath." The old man said, with an even wider grin on his expression however Sango looked at the old man, trying to understand the underlying meaning behind his words.
