A Hilt with no Blade II

*Rumble*

"Fuuu~"

"Master?" Xia Feng Zi floated towards her master and called out. Her master was moving the rocks as she waved her hand.

At length, Bei Ling said as she did a calling gesture with her right index finger, "Here it is."

"…" Xia Feng Zi followed her master's red eyes and looked at her now opened right hand but she couldn't see anything.

"The ring?" as smart as she was, she deduced it and asked.

Bei Ling nodded without putting away her red eyes from her palm, 'This ring… why does it…'

"But Master, didn't you say it was better to not mess with this? Suu~"

"Ah, did I say so?" Bei Ling did a grabbing motion with her hand; it was as though she had taken the invisible ring within her fist.

'… Yes, you did!'

"Fuuu~"

Bei Ling, seeing her disciple annoyed expression as she blew out smoke added, "Well… after going on who might be the Second Elder… judging by his behaviour, he seems to be the reasonable kind so… wouldn't he be grateful if we keep his things safe?"

*Cough, cough, cough* Bei Ling expression was so casual that Xia Feng Zi choked with the last smoke she had yet to blew out.

"What is it?"

*Cough, cough*

"Nothing.

"Suuu~"

'Now I get why someone said that freedom was a luxury…'

"Fuuu~"

'Who would have now that freedom was so costly, how troublesome~

'Tsk, my past life was boring but at least it wasn't this noisy. Though, I think it is exhausting and makes me want to be in a closed room and sleep, my heart felts rather excited, ughh…'

"Suuu~"

'Whatever, I guess.'

"Fuuu~"

'Going against the current of a given society has never worked fine in the short term and more if someone lacks true strength so by the barbaric laws of this place, for now, should I go with the who found it, who owns it and the first come, first serve thing…?'

"…" Bei Ling didn't say a word and just watched quietly at her disciple for her to make her mind.
