Fleche was facing at Hong Guibao directly with a bewilderment, he noticed that Hong Guibao's knuckles were red like he has punched on someone.
"So then, Scholar Hong has punched my face and made it look like a shit" Fleche fisted and gritted his teeth in anger. He was expressing deep anger with gasping and clenching his face. "Wow! I just here for a beautiful girl, instead I got punched" he kicked the stone near his leg.
Hong Guibao looked the way that object was flying around, he made a close move. He looked at other man face.
"Mind your behaviors young master, you don't remember how disgusted you were last time"
Fleche backed away from other for some distance, he sighed itched his nostrils clearing his throat, he nodded a bit with making a scornful pout.
"Hmm! Wow! Fantastic Scholar Hong!" he clapped to give a sarcastic applaud "So! Our hero savior of pretty ladies, tell me about my disgusted behaviors" he asked with wrapping his arms around his chest
Hong Guibao looked down "Young Master! Respect Girls! It worth everything"
Fleche itched his ear with frowning a bit. He shook his head since he didn't remember any incident occurred in last night. He didn't have a clear idea; how did he end up in Hong Guibao. He only remembered he proposed to a woman from HongZheZhu.
"I do respect women more than you think, I don't keep a harem as men in HongZheZhu."
Hong Guibao listened to every word with giving right concentration. He wanted to cool down the fire before it gets spread. It was obvious there was a cultural barrier that lead them to misunderstand. He understood it better while he didn't become a scholar for fun, after studying more than 100 subjects, they were announced as scholars, after observing well the start their journey of crossing sea
"Young master! in our land , there is a great distance we have to keep between women and men, we can't be friendly , hang out, touch or have any physical contact with a person from opposite sex, specially this rule is concerning woman and their purity, if you touch her, you disrespect her dignity since only her husband can touch her. She must be so modest while she is communicating and having interaction with a person from opposite sex, you may see how she talked with me before keeping her head down, you know what you did can make her get rejected by every man in HongZheZhu and you would get criticized and receive hatred from everyone around"
Hong Guibao described a long rule in their land wanting other to understand more about their culture and the tradition before he committed something messy again
Fleche pouted scornfully while listening to him, but in the next second he understood whatever other said had a truth. There was no excuse him to behave in such a indecent way like getting drunk and misbehaving.
"in Westland , there is now such a rule, men and women have much interaction. Skinship and many friendly moments , there is no gender specific for the friendship. And we propose a girl with tying a black bead anklet in her ankle"
While Fleche was talking about it, Hong Guibao, remembered that in last night, he mistakenly tied it on his leg. He was wise enough to keep silent and listening to other because he could give a reason to his behaviors as well.
"I want to ask you something if you don't mind" Hong Guibao wanted to change the topic
Fleche sighed since they talked that day too much, he thought, he wasn't unwilling to talk with the scholar further even he wasn't that happy with happy with talking with other man
"Hmm! Tell me what is it?"
Hong Guibao looked outside being very curious about the Killer Falcon, no one from HongZheZhu had witnessed something awful like
"That falcon you shot out to be burnt, is there any linkage between it and Demon?" he asked
Fleche widened his eyes; it was like he was being swirled ten rounds and threw to the air. He changed the topic they were talking about to the crisis that faced by Westland was none of outsider's concern
"Let me ask you a question, Scholar Hong! Are you happy with outsiders intrude your family and pry around you?" Fleche asked
Hong Guibao looked turned his head down with sighing a bit, Hong citizen would never interrupt others businesses, the sovereign requested them to solve the problem in the Westland nevertheless. That was the reason Hong scholars were dispatched to the Westland.
"This is not something like that, we are asked to be here to expel demons who cause lots of danger to Westland, we, Hong citizen won't intrude anything, we have taken an oath before we arrive here"
Fleche frowned when he heard about Oath, there wasn't something more to argue with the Hong now, forwarding an attempt to fight him also a foolish thought. He shrugged and shook his head.
"So, what do you need to know from me?' he asked
"Is there any different between mutant & demon?" Hong Guibao asked
Fleche's facial expression changed into deeper as much as his heart was starting to palpitating, since he had a low knowledge of this demon crisis, because most people refer written notes where wrote about demons. He hadn't known about demon more. He knew about Mutant since they've been long term enemies
"I'm sorry I don't know about demon. The mutants are our long-term enemies, I will take my leave" he said.
Hong Guibao held him by his upper hand to stop him. Fleche made a mouth agape , he gazed at the hand in his upper arm, he gazed at other's face. They were looking at each other with sparkling eyes, keeping an eye contact.
"I want a help from you, I got to know you are a good blacksmith, I want you to make me some metal works for me" Hong Guibao said.
Fleche ran his eyes head to toe in other placing a wide mouth agape. He pulled his hand from others seize. He backed away from him
"How do you know I like Metal crafting?" he asked
Hong Guibao bit his lip, in second minutes he stammered "I I I"
Fleche sneered looking at other head to toe "did you go to my home? Did you meet my mother somewhere?"
He was questioning other since only his own mother knew his keen for metal crafting. He moved a little closer to other.
"Listen! Scholar Hong! I'm not going to work for anyone specially for someone like you" Fleche said picking his sword and adjusting it in his belt, he tied the laces of his shoes. "Have a nice day" he left the Strawberry Pavilion after greeting for other man
Hong Guibao bowed him greeting him after he was looking at the way the young man with a some pride hidden under his illiterate self was leaving the pavilion.
.........................................................
"Metal crafting for him? I am not that cheap to do it" Fleche was mumbling while walking in street. He was roaming all over the street through the stall without any hope since his life was with zero goals. Although he knew his life was useless, he wanted to survive it
Abruptly his leg got entangled with someone's made him tripped a fell in the ground, everyone started to stare at him once he felt acute pain since at the moment, he couldn't get away from the last night bruises. He whimpered in a very low tune without making others to hear it. He raised his head once he heard familiar laughter
The laughter made his body hair straightened due to the creepy anger was running over his whole body which made his goosebumps thick. The person who made him fell wasn't good with him since the childhood. He was the one of person who humiliates him every day. He stood up fast as those arrows shot by him
"Loup Chasseur just fuck off"'
He cursed making everyone look at him like he was a supernatural Spirit which was making weird tunes
