 Cian clan elders let him follow the caravan after much persuasion. He wanted to see the world and try his cultivation methods. Kendra actually was aware of his true intentions. She sighed deeply as she saw two people bickerings in front of her. One was beanpole and the other furious kitten. 

 But having them with her warmed her heart somehow. She was in past life always alone. When she was younger she never had friends and later she had fake ones that were just interested in using her because of her wealth. Even those men she dated were always doing so they could get something from her. Some wanted fame, some money, some just contacts.

She was aware of all that, but she was so lonely that she closed her eyes over and over again. On the end, not even one had a true heart. With time she got tired. What is point having them around herself? So bothersome... She hated those fake smiles and fake love. Even the last one was sent away from herself after she found out he was pursuing her secretary. 

She smiled slightly, that girl was quite a faithful little child. When she heard him wooing her she flipped the table and started beating him up. What not many people knew was that this small secretary was saved from the streets by her and sent to school. Out gratefulness, she chooses to go and learn to be her assistant. On the street, she fought every day to survive every single day. 

Kendra smiled. That girl had a fiery temper but controlled it well for years so no one knew how violent she could become. After she beat him up so badly that he ended up in the hospital with multiple broken bones, Kendra helped her with trial and gave her raise. That girl complained about her wasting money for nothing. But that didn't stop Kendra doing so. 

Kendra was looking out the window and smiled brightly. This new life of hers is not bad at all. Even if she didn't have powers she could live quiet little life and just enjoy peace.  But then she remembered the potential threat and her face turned gloomy. If they dare to harm this world... Her eyes became icy and changed into a red color. 

Isaa and Cian could see the change on her and looked at each other. ''It seems big storm is brewing. She won't let them off this time.'' 

Cian nodded. ''Impossible to be left after all that happened.'' 

After all, some things can't be forgiven that easily. Fire clan lost multiple people in the hands of that man. Kendra already knew who is actually on his side but didn't want to reveal. It is better to let him have some sense of security and achievement.

They are now as it seems not far from him, as some individuals started to get restless. She smirked coldly. If they think they can get away with their little play, their days will become dark. 

Two days passed and Kendra Isaa and Cian just stayed together in their carriage. Sometimes they will leave to walk with others. Cian would sometimes go out and greet them all, but they stopped giving them food as they had already the supplies that they bought on their way. The young Lord even stopped Kendra as he felt it was wrong for her to do so.


''Stop doing this. It was fine to do that at the beginning but now we bought enough food. They can cook and feed alone. Sigh. When I only think that soon I will see that old man, I start becoming restless. My heart starts beating hard. I am a big fool probably in your eyes, but I haven't seen him for so long. Somehow even tho I hate him, I miss him as well. I really do...'' The sarcastic smile n his face was erased and only sorrow and anger were left there.

''If he didn't collude with those strange people, then today we could just get together and enjoy our time.'' He sighed deeply while looking at a wide horizon in front of him.  

''Young Lord should not think about things like that seriously. He is your father, after all. You must forgive him. But those people...'' Kendra had no plan to forgive that old man as well. But she had no plan telling him yet.

Cian came out of the carriage and sat next to Kendra. ''I need to tell you something. For two days we are walking straight, right?''

Kendra and the young Lord nodded. His words changed the atmosphere completely. 

''Why do I feel then that we are walking in a circle? I grew up outside our fire mountain but traveled a lot with my uncle. I clearly can feel that we are circling. Bu strange thing is I can't see it. What is going on?''

Kendra smiled lightly.  ''Of course, we are in illusion. Those people are really great artists. To use the soul seeker clan to make such a big illusion, why waste it. Let us enjoy. By my predictions, they will lose power shortly as they will deplete completely their powers and won't be able to keep it stable anymore. By then, most of our enemies will be outside to greet us with big fanfare and power.''

Young Lord suddenly got stiff. ''You want to say we are already there but are presented on their plates like cooked meat?''

Kendra shook her head. ''No, this kind of illusion is like that shield we saw before. We can't see outside, they can't see inside. They have no idea what is going on here. But as they can contact each other, they probably are aware of most things that are happening here.''

His back suddenly felt cold. '' Impossible. How come I didn't feel them at all? And why didn't you tell me? We could have prepared for the fight.''

''Why stirring them and preparing them for it? If they found out that we knew their plans, wouldn't that give them time for a backup plan? All they see now is tens of people. Carriage with food. Foolish Lord, one strong power and two harmless children. What do they fear? But they will all be here, to show their power and to scare those underlings that don't want to comply with their requests.''

Lord's hand suddenly quenched on reins. ''So it is like that. If nothing else, the two of us are just their puppets and will be used to harm everyone. How foolish I was. Wasting my time on those people and trying my experiments. I didn't win anything. No, I was wrong. By wasting that time I met her. Yes, from one side it was a bad thing but from the other side, she and children exist and keep me going. Kendra, just in case, I won't survive, can you take care of them? Please?'' 

''I have to admit. young Lord, that at first, I had plans to kill you or at least mutilate you for your evil deeds. Even if those people were bad, you had no right to make experiments on them. But looking closer, you did save everyone. I have still mixed feelings about you, but that woman and children will be safe, don't worry. And by the way, when did I say I will let you die on the battlefield?''

He looked at her cold smile and suddenly shudder went through his body. Even those bugs in him felt pressure and fear. She looked at him and her eyes turned normal again. 

''Don't worry, I will not harm all those creatures in you. Not yet at least...'' She stood up and went inside carriage while leaving Cian and Lord outside.

Cian looked at the young Lord with sympathy. ''She is the strongest and mightiest person I ever met. If those people abandon you, she will indeed annihilate them, so as not to leave any loose ends. Just to warn you in advance.''

He went inside carriage where Isaa and Kendra munched on freshly picked strawberries. ''You two...'' He pointed at their heads. '' Arent you tired of these? Since I met you the first time you two couldn't stop eating these. I mean, you have so many other fruits, but you just love strawberries. Sigh. I give up. Let me join in.''

He stuffed his face with strawberries as they were freshly picked and washed in spring in their space. Not only they had amazing taste, tehy replenished his energy. 

Isaa stared at him with small eyes and slapped his hand when he tried to get again bunch of them. ''Stop grabbing them all. Your big hands and big mouth can eat them all in three breaths. What will be left for the two of us? Idiot!''

He took one of the strawberries, cleaned off the green stem and stuffed it in her mouth. '' I am just preparing for you. Aren't they sweet? Right?''

Isaa looked at his foolish antics and sighed. She opened her mouth waiting for next one as he looked in grievance at the strawberry he wanted to eat. His fingers twitched but on end, he saw her cute expression like a small chick and smiled brightly. Oh well, then he shall help her. 

Even if people think of him as fool, he is willing to be one. For her he is willing...
