Not too far away from the hill, there was a home built differently from any other in the crimson world. A small stone house stood in a compound fenced with crimson Cyprus trees. Behind the house, there was a swimming pool full of clear water. A man in his forties was busy swimming carefreely in that pool.
"Magra, bring me a towel."
He called out not too long later. A beautiful young lady immediately brought a white towel which he used to dry himself with pleasure.
"My wife, it has been a long time since I had a human flesh, I heard that the barrier blocking the Crimson land from Keniya has been opened. When do you think we should go hunting?"
After dressing up, the two walked side by side as they entered the house. The man smiled after a long silence.
"Talking of that, I seem to have lost some weight considerably. It will be a good idea but aren't you supposed to wait for that Ordainer? Will he not help you hunt as many humans as you want?" The woman asked doubtfully.
"Ooh!" The man slapped his forehead joyfully upon that reminder, "I do not know why I forget a lot these days. He is just with the six mistresses. He should be here before the end of tomorrow."
"That is more interesting. I am really waiting for him."
By this time, they were already in the resting room taking a drink on top of the table. The woman said excitedly sipping the drink noisily.
"As we wait my woman, you know how hard we have tried to have an offspring. Yesterday, I visited the medicine man from the western village. He gave me a tonic which I think we should try out, what do you think?" Lifting his head, the man asked jokingly.
"Don't you think you should use a different line to ask for it? You cannot expect me to believe you this time, can you?" The woman laughed.
"Honey, I am serious this time. Even if that is not the case, I do not know for how long I will stay with that human, don't you think you should give me what is rightfully mine?"
"Okay, I am also excited at the moment, let us have some fun."
With that, the man literally flew towards the woman before they started kissing with passion. A few minutes later, they were all nude and the man's member was already inside the woman's mouth. Mourns of pleasure filled the house. After about twenty minutes, they were done with foreplay and he was inside her on the sofa they sat on. Just as he was about to start thrusting, they heard a knock at the door.
"Argh! How did that fool bypass the gate!" The man lamented in anger, slapping his sofa repeatedly.
He then pretended not to hear the knock and decided to get a few pushes but the door was knocked once more. Having no choice, the two dressed up quickly and he went for the door. The woman disappeared to another room.
When he opened the door, he saw three people looking at him with incredulous expressions.
"High Priest, what are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be at the Tower of Worship training the Ordainer?" He couldn't help but ask with a frown of bewilderment on his face.
However, he did not receive an answer. Instead, the three were just looking at him. In fact, their mouths were agape and their eyes were bulging like never before.
"What is it?" The man asked.
As an answer, he saw the giant pointing at a certain point. Lowering his head, he saw his D pointing at the intruders directly. It was so straight that if it elongated a centimeter longer, it would just penetrate through the cloth and find freedom outside.
"Eeeh...come in." Pressing it down, the man waved embarrassedly.
"So, my fence is fortified by spells of one of the thirteen wizards of the Sanctum Shrub of our land. How did you get here without me granting you an entry?" After they were all settled down, the man asked doubtfully.
"Keeper, you may be powerful than I am and I am also not a match for those wizards but are you forgetting that I hold the priest's holy rod?" The High Priest said with a smile.
"You overestimate the powers of the staff High Priest. It is useful only if you are at the altar under the shrub where we give sacrifices to our Lord. At that place, I doubt if even I can do anything against you. However, considering the fact that you are several kilometres from that place, you can only use a third of its power. That is insufficient to bypass my fence." Looking at the High Priest incredulously, the man explained.
"I think what is important is what actually brought us here. How we came in is a problem of another time." This time, it was the youngest man among the three visitors that spoke. His voice was calm.
"Who is this?" The host asked with a frown.
"This is Ochieng', my master." The giant answered with a smile.
"You master? Aren't you supposed to be serving our Lord? When did he become your master?" The man asked this time shocked.
"We are not here to waste time Keeper." Ochieng's voice reverberated, "I want you to take me to where I will meet the representative of your Lord, now."
"What did you say?" The Keeper's asked with pointed eyes. It was as if he was waiting for Ochieng' to repeat what he had just said, otherwise, the young man would be completely destroyed.
"I just want to meet the representative, there is no need to be so agitated about it." Ochieng' waved his hand apathetically.
"You aren't qualified to meet him. So, stop wasting my time...oh, are you the..."
Pa!
Before the Keeper finished his statement, Ochieng' sent a slap on his left cheek. This released two teeth out of his mouth accompanied by blood.
"Like I said, I am not here to waste time with you. If you cannot take me to him, you can as well keep your mouth shut." Ochieng' angrily said.
Then, his eyes reddened as he obtained information from the Keeper's mind. After a few seconds, he was done.
"Did you just slap..."
The Keeper regained his senses and as he looked at Ochieng' threateningly, another slap was sent on his same cheek forming a red palm print on that place. Angry, he stood to fight the young man but he was powerless before him. He used everything at his arsenal but all was futile.
"I will take you to him." Kneeling, the man agreed with pleading eyes.
"No, that is not necessary anymore, but I need your help on something else."
After defeating the Keeper. Ochieng' made him submit to him before giving him a certain task. He then left the house with unbelievable speed.
