Chapter 26 - A child and a strange woman.

The woman had arrived at the top of a mountain where a large building was located,as soon as she touched the ground.

"GREETINGS TO SECT LEADER!!!!" the people around shouted as they bowed which surprised her

" shhhhh!!" she stressed as she put a finger over her lips " you'll wake him " she screamed as softly as she could while they all covered their mouths as they didn't notice the child in her arms and bowed again before an old woman came forward.

" Greetings to sect leader I hope your stroll was enjoyable" she said just like the others.

" yes yes it was, now can I ask you something elder? " .

" anything sect leader"

" how does one take care of a child?"

"..."

"..."

" eh!?"the woman's composure fell apart as she noticed the child in the sect leader's arms ."I..is that ?"

" no wait calm down first elder"

" I am calm child but who is the father ? I must inform the others" the elder looked panicked as she suddenly vanished.

" This..." she said with a look of defeat.

" mmm... why is it so noisy" the child said as he rubbed his eyes and looked up at the woman holding him .

' huh? not Azazel but' he said while stretching out his hand and touched he face

" Pretty~" he said with excited eyes though it was a bit weird given how his eyes look but the woman didn't seem to mind .

' cuteee' he mind was literally melting from his expression .

"Sect leader!!!!!!" A loud voice screamed as something landed on the ground causing a loud bang to be heard as the ground cracked .

"cool" Defteros appeared to be amused by his landing

' what now ?' she sighed as the dust cleared and a brown haired man in a fancy robe stumbled out with what looked like tears on his face .' oh no it's the fifth elder ' she facepalmed ,now she may have said elder it's more of just a title so the man is more her age by looks at least .

" sect leader,when did you get a child I thought you where going to marry me " he lamented as he got closer to her and stood at his full height making it obviously who the bigger looking one was, now the sect leader was tall but this man was basically a mountain,not like he was ugly though.

" what is it fifth elder?" she said as she rolled her eyes .

" don't pretend like you didn't hear me who's this child's father?"

" does this child look like it's mine ?" as soon as she said that the man pointed at the child whose hair had turned silver like her own.

' eh?' she thought as she slowly put him down on the floor

" Big.." he said as he looked at him up and down and then attempted to climb him while the elder just looked at him In disbelief, after attempting to climb and failing he stretched out his hands to be carried and when no one answered .

" humph " he exclaimed as he stomped on the ground causing it to crack .

' oh this kids strong' the man thought as he started to laugh." alright little one come here he said as he put him on his shoulders and the boys hair color changed back to black

"ooh alright, sui Mei let's go inside so you can explain to the the others .

after explaining the situation to the elders

" so you found him lying under a tree " an old man said as he stroked his Beard " this might just be nothing or something serious because it's obvious that this child isn't normal if his appearance is anything to go by his parents are definitely powerful they might not take lightly to this "

" we also have the blade break clan to consider" the fifth elder said

The elder shivered at the thought of the child's parents while he seemed to have tired himself out and slept .

They decided they would watch and wait in case anyone came searching but days turned into weeks and that into months as no one came and he had grown close to everyone in the sect .

" I'm bored maybe I should go lie in the field again " he said as he skipped along to the fields.

' what is this it got kinda boring real fast ' jack thought to himself as he watched.

( hey just be patient the good parts coming)

' if you say so ' he shrugged.

Defteros ran around in the field before eventually falling asleep .

' why must it be under a tree ever heard of a bed and why am I sleeping I'm a god right?'

( would you quit complaing and watch?)

'fine '

Turns out that some people decided to attack the sects disciples that day .

" stop please what did we do?" a disciple begged for his life while covered in blood

" you didn't do anything it's your leader we want "he said as he stabbed the disciple as he screamed .

"I...won't let it end like this..." he said as he held onto the blade and exploded while sending a signal to the sect that enemies had arrived .

before long other disciples as well as the sect master and the first and fifth elder had come as they fought the sound of blades and explosions where heard .

"so much noise I wonder what's going on" he said as he stumbled towards them

as the fighting continued both sides where suffering damage and in the mist of this chaos everyone paused as they saw a child casual stroll through.

" who is this child " someone from the other side screamed while pointing a sword as he groggily stumbled .

" come back child " the fifth elder shouted .

" why?" he said as he rubbed his eyes .

" those are in bad people"

" bad people huh?" he said as he turned his gaze towards them "looks boring" he said as he started to yawn and as his mouth closed

* chomp *

there was no blood and no traces

more than half of their enemies had vanished and the one with his sword pointed had only his hand left behind as a sign of his presence.

everyone turned their attention to the child who now appeared to be chewing something.

' what just happened?' everyone wondered as they stared at him
