《Tales of Idiots.》9. A Walk
Advertisement
"Bronach Kingdom have declared war on the Solstice Empire after arresting their diplomat."
The news anchor announce. People in the inn watch the TV in silence. "Now that's bad news." Brick mutter as he pulls a chair and sat down. "And Riverwood is gonna take a hit."
"Why?" Cyan ask.
"Riverwood is part of Rustbrough and Rustbrough import most of it stuff from the Solstice Empire and the Lunar Kingdom and since Bronach is going to war with the Solstice Empire, the Solstice Empire is going to focus all of its supplies on the war and so they aren't gonna let us import stuff from them." Brick explains.
"Oh," Cyan said.
Lupin stands and walks to the doors, he opens the doors and said, "I need to visit the gunsmith and the blacksmiths for parts." He then left through the door. Lester went to the door and said, "Hey Basil we're gonna buy you something from the bakery as I promise." Basil ran through the door with Lester following him. Drake got and said, "I'm gonna watch the clouds." Then he left leaving Brick and Cyan.
Brick turn to Cyan and said, "Wanna play some board games."
"Sure," Cyan replied.
*With Lupin*
"Hey old man, I'm here!" Lupin yells, entering a shop.
*Bam*
A wench slams into Lupin's face before dropping to the ground. Lupin clutches his face in pain. "Ha! Told ya to stop calling me old man ya brat." A dwarf walks up to Lupin and picks up the wench. The dwarf had a large beard and wearing a dirty apron with short sleeves and gloves.
"Force of habit," Lupin said. "So you finish the parts Grimnarl?"
Grimnarl sighs. "Yes, I got the parts." He went to the back of his shops and went out carry out a suitcase and hand it to Lupin.

"Good next I need to go to the gunsmith," Lupin said.
*Bam*
"Ow," Lupin said clutching his face with one of his hands.
"Fool! I am both the gunsmith and the blacksmith!" Grimnarl yells. He then hands Lupin another suitcase. "Here's your parts."
"Thank you."
Grimnarl signs and looks at Lupin. "You're really gonna do it are you?" He said with a frown.
Lupin was silent for a few minutes before replying. "I owe him."
Grimnarl signs and waves his hands signaling for Lupin to go away. "Well, I can't stop ya."
Lupin nod and walk out of the shop.
*With Lester and Basil*
"Delicious."
Lester scowl ease bit. "Told you I would buy something from the bakery."
Basil nod. "That you did." Basi then looks up while munching on a pastry. "This reminds me of when we were kids."
"How?" Lester question.
"You made a promise to have our feast on fresh bread remember?" Basil said.
''We're gonna eat fresh bread today Basil!" A kid Lester said.
"Really?" A kid Basil said.
"I promise!" Lester said.
"Ah. I remember now." Lester said. "Did we eat fresh bread back then?"
"I believe so," Basil said.
"Eh, I don't think so," Lester said. "Fresh bread in Bronach was costly and rare to find."
"Hmmm, that's also true," Basil said.
"Let's go home."
"Ok."
"Hey, Basil! I found fresh bread!"
"Really!"
Lester holds up a loaf of fresh bread, a bit bruised. He tore the loaf into half and hand one part to Basil.
Basil happily munch on the bread with Lester smiling and eat his part of the bread.
*With Drake*
Drake was gonna watch the clouds but stop by something else. "Where're your parents?" Drake asks a child.

"I don't know." Said the child while crying and wiping her tears.
Drake scratches his head and sighs. "Along I'll find your parents."
"R-Really?"
"Yes."
Drake holds hands with the child and tries to find her parents but to avail. "This is your parents?" He asks.
"No."
"How annoying," Drake grumble.
"Lisa is that you?"
"Mom!"
Drake turns to see a woman walking towards them.
"This is your mom?" He asks.
"Yeah!"
Drake walks towards the woman and asks, "This is your kid?"
The woman nod. The child then hugs the woman. "Thank you, thank you, thank you." The woman said.
"It's fine," Drake said trying to walk away but the woman keeps on trying to reward him.
"Take this." The woman hand him a card and said, "This will give you something free at our shop."
Drake took the card and the woman then left with the child with the child waving at him. "Bye-bye!"
"Bye," Drake said then look at the card. 'Doc. Lexis's Medicine.' Drake put the card into his pocket and look up at the sky and saw that the sun was setting, seeing this Drake decide to head back to the inn.
*At The Inn*
"Arrgh, I lost again." Cyan groan.
"Hahaha!" Brick laugh.
"I'm back!"
"Hello."
"Hi!"
"I'm back."
Lupin walks towards Brick and Cyan seeing the board games and faces Brick. "How many times does he lost?"
"35."
Lupin whistle.
Drake walks upstairs and said, "Of course he lost."
"Brick's luck is too much for all of us," Lester grumble.
"Give me one meat stew!"
*At The Gates Of Riverwood*
"We're here."
"Time to get our pay."

The Successor
The Immortal God Emperor is dead...yet his Successor will one day arise. The worlds had long moved on from the greatest Cultivator of all time. The things that had been achieved and the advances made in the Immortal God Emperor's absence were nothing to turn one's nose up at. And yet, something was always missing. Because Cultivators, no matter the goals they pursue, always bow to the greater power. They seek it, they covet it for themselves, and they serve it with reverence. Shan Kai Lan was born into such a world. Born to two herb farmers whose cultivation did not surpass the Foundation Realm, yet who loved their son more than anything. Kai Lan was a child blessed by the Spiritual Plain, far more gifted and more intelligent than others his age. Yet the more profound his achievements, the greater the likelihood that his happy, peaceful life would be trampled on by those who desired his potential for themselves. The question of Kai Lan's journey becomes not whether he will reach the highest peak of cultivation, but what he will be forced to do to keep his young Clan, and the happiness it provides, at peace.
