The second female lead Dual Cultivates

Chapter 185 Interlude: The Words Of The Upper Realm



"The lower realm has gotten noisy again. I can't feel the power in my node. Do you think something happened to it?" The eternal lady asked.

One could tell at a glance that she was not human, but some kind of divine beast. Her tone made you want to obey her every command and answer her every question.

One could not even think of not taking her seriously.

And that's why when the tense situation was broken by amused laughter, everyone turned to face the culprit.

"Sister Heera, you lost your power source. Oh, how will you ever cope? It's not like you cannot use any of the other thousand available methods to cultivate your power." The new man added.

Even the glare being aimed at him by his 'sister' did not phase him. He carried himself with confidence.

"It's not about the node Kiryuu, it's about respect. They dared to mess with a thing of mine. All this after they denied me my husband-to-be. How can I take this insult?" Herra asked?

Her words finally caused the laughter to stop from the man sitting opposite her and consider what she had just said.

For a minute, it looked like the man would let it go. But then he made a decision.

"Don't worry, sister Heera. Since you no longer have your node's access, you cannot go to the continents in person. But worry not. I will take revenge in your stead." The man replied.

Kiryuu pushed his chair back and left the empty council hall. Not that he had ever expected it to be full of people.

The council of the continents only existed in name. It was a duty they embraced because it was something their mother had bestowed on them. They could care less about what happened to the lower realm.

Everyone except sister Heera. She had the misfortune to fall In love with a demon. She had even been promised that demon but he had run away from her.

It had angered Heera enough to curse a whole continent not even under her control. Luckily for Heera, the owner of the continent's node did not care and their mother was still asleep for now.

But now that he had free reign, what should Kiryuu do? It was not often he went to the lower realms. They were boring and lacked spirit. Besides, being bound to one was draining.

So maybe unchaining himself from those parasites was a good idea. The nodes were two-way streets. They empowered the upper continent with the lower continent's magic but only in small amounts.

In return, they took heavy magic from the upper realm and provided it for the lower realm's sustainability.

Besides, Kiryuu could not help but feel excited. He had also heard a strange rumour. The oracle had a special gift this time around. He wanted to meet her.

He had so much to talk about with her and she did not belong in the lower realm.

And maybe, just maybe her presence in the upper realm would calm sister Heera down. Or she would die.

But who cared.
