It took some time for Lily to stop crying and then she looked at Zero with eyes filled with curiosity, judging from the way that the young girl was looking at Zero he could tell what she wanted and that was to know his current strength.
Zero was also looking at Lily with a smile on his face the girls did not disappoint him at all with the few months that he was away the girls manage to reach Spirit gathering level 4.
From the looks of it, they manage to get the Nirvana flame pill as Zero want and Lily did not waste all the money that was put on her.
Lily kept looking at Zero trying to see through his cultivation but she could not and then a crazy thought enter her mind that the only way she could not see his cultivation was because he was stronger than she as.
The idea its self seems crazy to Lily she spent the last few months working her self to the bone and the only thing she managed to gain was a cultivation of Spirit gathering level 4.
The was nothing thing that she could do except ask Zero, " master what is your current cultivation is it because you are stronger than I am that I can't see your cultivation or is it because you are internationally hiding it from me" she said to Zero.
Zero did hide his cultivation but it was when he entered the Green leaf kingdom and it was so that not would know his cultivation but now he was no longer hiding.
Zero smiled and said, " if you can guess my cultivation then your master will give you a present".
Lily looked at Zero with a frown on her face this was what hse hated the most when people treated her like she was just a kid.
Lily wanted to complain but she was distracted by the cute, white and fluffy thing that poked its head out of Zeros shirt.
" Master what's that on your shirt did you get Lily a dog". Like Zerosaber was hiding his true strength so Lily could not even differentiate him from a normal dog.
Saber jumped out of Zero shirt into the waiting hands of Lily and it was like watching a magic trick happen.
Zero had to admit that the was something about Saber's cute puppy act that would get anyone going even him someone that did not like dog very much.
From that moment Lily could not be separated from Saber and she did everything she could to make Saber happy even to the point of giving him all the pill she had refined it was starting to get bad until Zero was forced to have a serious talk with Saber.
Lily was not the only one to fall to the cute puppy dog act her parents fall for it to and Zero was left helpless about it.
When Saber jumped onto Lily's hands Zero could almost see the young girl falling in love with he dog.
After a cuddle with Saber for a while, Lily returned to her senses and remember Zero present and she asked " what is he and isn't he the cutest thing you have ever seen, can I keep. Is he the present that you wanted to give to me." Zero looked at Lily for a while then he said '" his name is Saber and he is not a dog but a powerful spirit beast and you have to be careful around him".
Zero knew at that moment that Saber would be a bad influence to the girl and looking at how happy it was in Lily's embraces so knew that the was something wrong with the dog and he was proven right soon.
It turned that Saber was a big womanizer for after arriving at Pill Island the on people that were allowed to hold him were the only woman and he made sure to stay away from man, especially Zero.
Lily seems to not believe what Zero told her about Saber being powerful and she looked and Saber for a while and shook and said " master is jealous a how cute you are and wants to make you out to be a mean and scary spirit beast but don't listing to him. From now on you most only listing to big sister Lily and she will give all the best treatment in the world. "
Then she took out a pill from her storage ring and gave it to Saber who looked too happy to accept it.
Knowing the was nothing he could say that was going to change how Lily felt about Saber Zero want to move on to more important things and he asked Lily where her parents where.
That reminded Lily of Zero presents once again and she looked at Zero apologetic and said " we received word that you have returned and that was why my mother sent me to come and get you something happened and mather guessed that you would want to know about it the moment you arrived she is waiting for you at the study please follow me".
With that, she lead the way to the study and Zero wait puzzled what kind of news could have happened that would need him to know about it the moment he got back did it have something to do with the huge undercurrent that was happening in the Thunder god kingdom.
Zero and Lily walked into the study and he Rose Feilds sitting in are cheer and from the tired look, she had Zero guessed that whatever was happing most very big.
Rose's eyes were fixed on the document that was in from of her and she did not even look up when Zero took the seat next to her.
After a while did she life her head a looked at Zero and the was a beautiful smile on her fix Zero could see that she was happy to see him but her smile was different Lily she carried pure happiness.
Rose's smile seems to curry something else and it did not take long for Zero to find out what was behind Rose's smile.
"a good thing that you are back and you could have not chosen a better time to arrive but you need to know that Pill Island needs you now more than ever."
