VII

Yuba understood that he was in contact with the lady luck, the so-called Fortuna, which is equivalent to Tyche the Greek goddess. That is her name in greek and it translates to 'Luck'. She is a deity who governed the fortune and prosperity of cities and nations and their destinies but never was she seen meddling with individual mundanes or helping them. This meant that there must be a reason why she contacted Yuba, maybe he was destined to do something special ...

Yuba put the shamrock in his pocket and went straight to the kitchen. Numidia made him his favorite as she said before, pancakes with banana slices and peanut butter. Yuba went directly towards Numidia and kissed her on the cheek and said:" Well you sure do know how to spoil me, thank you mademoiselle Bastet ", then Yuba started tickling Numidia, Numidia was very sensitive to tickling, so she couldn't control herself and started laughing hysterically until she shouted:" STOP you are killing me, you know I hate being tickled. AND OH is that a thank you that I heard? The infamous and ungrateful Maahes Yuba just thanked someone, it is a miracle! No worries, you deserve the spoiling because you are helping me understand my true nature. Oh, and why do you smell like red wine ?"

Yuba then responded with a lie:" I drank some yesterday night, it was a degustation of the red wine owned and hand-made by the mayor. " Yuba then started devouring his meal, while thinking that it would be better to not bother Numidia with his conspiracies and what happened to him yesterday with Fortuna. "

After finishing their meal the 2 youngsters got dressed up and were ready to do their daily business. Before leaving Numidia remembered something and said: "Oh, by the way, I had this weird dream yesterday, about someone calling himself a celestial. do you know what that means? "

Yuba then replied:" Well yes and no, the definition of celestial is a being that is related to the sky or bound to heaven or the silver city. Some say they are archangels but some say that they are cosmic creatures that swim in the vastness of the cosmos while being untouched by physical laws such as time, space, and gravity. They are limitless beings, who lived for supposedly millions of years, some even claim that they were here before the big bang. Many myths and rumors but no one truly knows if they exist and if they do their purpose is unknown. "

Numidia then ejaculated:" Wow that sounds amazing, maybe he will grant me infinite knowledge! What about you? Did you dream of something yesterday? "

Yuba then said:" No, I didn't. I slept like a baby. Anyway, I am off to do some business. Papers won't sign themselves ."

Yuba left the house while thinking about Numidia's dream. Perhaps, it was a message like the one he received, a Celestial trying to help her, guide her maybe? The grimoire that Calypso gave them had like 50 pages talking about dreams and their explanations, the basics of dreams, and their interpretation. Yuba then recalled something about deities and guardians, when they want to contact you, they visit you in a dream and send subtle messages. What was questionable is that Fortuna did not care and came to Yuba and talked to him, she even warned him. Maybe Fortuna does not care about the deity's rules. It was clear now to Yuba that deities or guardians do exist, but what are their motives? Nobody truly knows. The only thing that is known is that you do not need to worship them, the relation between a deity and a human is just like business, you do something for them and they do something for you. But why would a deity need humans to do their bidding? Can they not just do it themselves because they are almighty? Or perhaps they just like to brag to each other about how many followers they have. Yuba had one thing in mind and that was:" I don't like these guardians, if anyone fucks with me or with Numidia, I will unleash my terror against them, and even if I die, my vengeful spirit will haunt them forever."

Yuba was known to be a professional in business and his manners were top-notch even if he was young. Always well-mannered with the people he is doing business with, and always fashionable. Today he was wearing a tailored beige suit, the blazer was a four-breasted blazer, underneath it was a black t-shirt, around his neck was a pearls choker made by Numidia, 2 golden earrings and several golden minimalistic rings too in 3 fingers of each hand. He was wearing his favorite shoes today, the Italian classic, black minimalistic moccasins. Even his hair was styled in a slick and classy manner, while usually, his hairstyle would be a messy mullet. But don't let appearances fool you, he was also known to physically abuse those who would break business promises or those who would meddle with his business, try to ruin deals, etc... What made him feared is that he, in person dealt with these people and their nuisances by breaking a rib or two. The so-called ' Impavido Leone ' which meant the fearless lion went to discuss business with the mayor about wine exports that will reach Milan, a usual but boring business...
