"Ryuu, come back here", an angry voice reverberated in the courtyard, followed by giggling of a child as it tried to escape from an irate woman, as the said woman tried to catch the child caked in dirt and mud. "My little glutton what have been doing to get all this dirt and mud on your body and I just took you to bath only a few hours ago", asked the woman in a false angry tone as she picked up the child. Seeing the angry look on his mother's face tears welled up in the child's eye, a child no more than two years of age, the acute red-haired child with a heterochromatic eye, as he replied with a slight stutter," but mama Zizi took mi cookie I wat tying to take ith back".
"Oh! and who had the gal to steal from my child".
"Zizi mi new fwiend, there she ish", replied the child as he pointed at a sparrow sitting on a tree branch nibbling on the said cookie.
The woman looked at the child and stifled a laugh as she thought back to all those years she spent on raising the child as her own after that fateful day all those years ago when she took the child and left her clan house as she went to this far away place in the small village, a decision she never regretted a single moment. This child never seizes to amuse her she thought with a smile.
'Abomination' she snorted thinking how her mother labelled the child, she thought back to the time when she first saw the weird powers of her neph... no, he is her son now, barely a few weeks old already started giving her headache because of his weird powers. One day she came to feed her cute child only to find him giggling surrounded by various animals and birds chirping yipping barking, at first it scared her what if those animals harmed her baby but it became a common sight within a few days not only that it seemed animals even plants started getting affected by it.
Nature seems to love her child when he is happy every plant seems vibrant flowers seem to bloom with beautiful scent and animals starts rejoicing prey and predators starts playing together as if they are long lost brothers and the opposite happened when he is sad. A few months later when her baby started showing signs of spirit root growing inside him a phenomenon which only occurs while a person is in their mother's womb, all this thing made her realise that her child might have some kind of special body maybe even some kind of divine body at first she was ecstatic but, the reality was different the clan thought the child some devil reborn and started pressurising her to abandon the child.
Damn how much narrow-minded fools can her family be she thought with disgust no she is no longer Xiao of Vance clan but Song Ya mother of her cute Ryuu, she still remembered how she escaped from her clan and ran away to this backwater planet because of those blasted relatives of her.
Few months before her nephews birth the imperial seer with the help of divination prophesied the birth of a great person who will either cause great prosperity or bring great disaster to the dynasty.
As the stories of miracles occurring because of her baby boy got spread through the servants' gossip
it eventually reached the ears of not only her parents but even the ears of the emperor through her oh so beloved sister-in-law the only beloved sister of the emperor, it was only because of some of her friends did she succeeded in her plans to escape from their clutches before the purified the so-called 'demon child'.
Oh, how she wished she could beat the crap out of her beloved brother until he could only piss blood and eat through a straw. As her thoughts darkened thinking about her family and her brother's in-laws. When she felt some hugging her she looked up to see her son looking at her fearfully "mama what happens you felt scaly ", ah another ability of her amazing child she can never hide her emotions from him her child is amazing. She stiffened suddenly then relaxed as she felt the presence of her beast partner, sister in all but blood came back from her recent excursion.
"My my who is this cute boy "
"AUNTY ZOO", exclaimed Ryuu excitedly his smiling brightly at the newcomer.
"Zhu Zhu it is glad to see you again sister", Ya smiled warmly at her.
"HeHehe my work finished quickly and I came as first as I could to meet my cute nephew."
"Aww you only came to meet my child and not me", Song Ya pouted at her.
"Oi stop pouting you are so many centuries old already that it is revolting, even if you look only at your early twenties, so stop it you old hag"
"who the hell are calling old hag when you are already twice as old as me, you granny".
"I know dear after all with age comes wisdom and I am wiser than you will ever be"
"Why you......"
"Ne ne aunty zoo will you slay wid us now."
"Yes yes my dear child I will, here take some sweets I got for you "
"Yeah, swees!!!!!!!"
"Sister you spoil him rotten"
"Oh, shush like you don't spoil him."
"Ryuu here a new toy for you I made myself why don't you go inside and play I have something to say to your mother."
"Tank you, aunty, come Zizi lets go play"
"hehe, what a cute child, only a few years and you will have to beat girls away from him Xiao Xiao."
"Please, sister I am Song Ya now, and about the girls, let us see which hussy tries to take my baby from me. Enough about it any news, sister."
Zhu zhu's face darkened considerably on being asked about, "Your clan is planning to........".
