It has been 10 years since I got here and it was very very peaceful apart from the occasional roars of beasts that seem fear this place it was peaceful. During this past years I have been getting used to my new strength also bought new techniques and all the laws from life to time from the shop but Shadow clone is still my favorite. Right now I am sitting in my makeshift dock to fish living this life was good for my 30 year old soul. hmmm I seem to forgot something Oh yeah my appearance. Well I have black hair with Stripes of white on my head, I had Crimson red eyes which had a slit in the middle pretty much like a dragon's eyes, I had lean muscles that look like a swimmer's ideal body, my face seem to be on the feminine side which weirded me out I don't remember having this face when I was younger.
Anyways back to me fishing when I was about to catch another fish I heard the rusting of bushes. Thanks to me being the highest level anyone can achieve here I did not bother putting my guard up but still called out.
"You know it's rude to not introduce yourself right"
I heard a small yelp escape from the person's mouth. I looked behind me and raised a brow I saw a girl she had golden hair, Blue eyes, and a tiara on top of her head she wore what seems to be a white dress embroidered with gold amd gems. She was standing there nervously as she looks at me with fear in her eyes.
"So what is a girl doing here?"
"H-Hello senior I a-am the P-princess of T-tulia Empire Rose Tulia and I need y-your assistance"
I stared at her not saying a word but just stared this caused her to shake a bit as the fear in her eyes intensified. Am I that scary? I didn't do anything to you I was just looking.
"Princess? Why do you need my help"
She inhales and exhaled so that she can calm down and tell me about her situation but I'm pretty sure it's like those 'My country is dying' or 'We need your help due to famine'
"Senior my country is dying due to famine we need your help"
'Okay a mix of both'
I thought as a wyrly smile appeared in my face.
"Why did you ask me even though we haven't met before?"
She looked at me with confusion written in her face and also had a expression saying 'Are you serious?'
"Senior do you not realize that you have not masked your energy for years right?"
"Energy?" this time it was my turn to be confused I asked the system 'Hey system have I been pouring out energy for a while now?'
[Host is correct you have been and host has not been paying attention to control it]
I facepalmed myself how could I forget that well it's not like helping is bad but I will have to ask her a compromise so I turned to her
"I will help you but in exchange you will have to stay here for 3 years to accompany me"
Rose was shocked by my condition but steeled her decision while gritting her teeth
"I accept"
"Great now first wait inside the house over there and I will catch up to you in a minute"
I pointed out the house and told her what she needed to do and she understood. She walked towards my house not before giving me glances when walking. You thought I wouldn't know little girl I'm the highest level a human could achieve. Snapping out of my thoughts I stood up, stretched my body and walked towards the house.
When I was walking I asked the system to buy a technique that hides my power. I felt a slight headache from the technique but hey I can hide it now. Inside my house I saw Rose sitting nervously on the sofa while her eyes are roaming around here and there. Hearing footsteps she looked at me while I sat down on the chair in front of her.
"So tell me the details"
i said impatiently as she cleared her throat
"Tulia Empire was experiencing famine for 3 years and is still getting worse. My father the emperor tasked a handfull of us his children on finding strong cultivators to help fix the situation before it is too late. It has been 4 months since we were sent outside of our empire until I heard a rumour that a very strong cultivator was living inside this forest called Trest and for everything else you already know."
In my head it sounded reasonable and think that the emperor really cares about his country that is normal but I just to be sure I asked
"So your reward something like will be the next empress or emperor right?"
She looked shocked that I knew about it but nodded anyways. I like that she is very honest so its not like it will hurt helping them.
"Fine but im not going this guy will"
I then summon a shadow clone that has 90% of my power in it. Her eyes widened when she saw two of me and it caused me and my clone to chuckle.
"Alright you can go now after doing so come back here."
She nodded and stood up smiling. She bowed her head down and walked away with my clone following closely behind her. 'today was a hectic one, Im tired I want to sleep' I thought proceeding to walk to my room and calling it a day.
