Chapter 8 - Visiting Kingdom of Plants

After 2 more days of resting, all physical injuries on Fei were completely healed.but he was still getting used to his new body. There are a lot of changes inside Fei's body. It was like Fei had been reborn.

For reference, his height has been increased to 8 feet. His body also looked much more muscular now. The changes in his body were so obscure that he's even having difficulty walking and doing some light exercise.

'This is going to be difficult….' Fei thought.

At that time Aise came inside his courtyard. Looking at fei's appearance her eyes shined.

"You are looking more and more like a Gaul now… " Aise said.

Fei didn't know whether to laugh or cry… he just bitterly smiled. These two days were like hell to him. He was unable to control his own body. It was like learning to stand and walk all over from the beginning.

"Let's go… we are going to start your special training from today onwards." Aise said as she left his courtyard. Fei hastily followed, saying "wait for me..."

Soon they reached a place as beautiful as painting…

What Fei saw in front of him shocked him to his core. In front of him there were different plants, wines , trees as well as some small saplings but the shocking thing was that they were all moving and talking among themselves. While some plants were carrying dead magical beasts with them.

'What is going on….' Fei thought as he staggered backward.

Looking at Fei's pale face Aise said "You don't have to worry… they are all sentimental plants. If you don't provoke them yourself they won't harm you. But be careful, they all are much more powerful than you."

Soon, Fei got his wits together as he asked, "What is this place…?"

"This place is called Plant kingdom where all sentimental plants live. This is where you will learn from today onwards." Aise said.

"What…! " Fei's body shook…. "I have to live and train here..?"

Aise expected that as she walk towards the city full of plants while saying,"Don't be a coward…. Let's go.."

As they walked on the streets of the city, they got a lot of curious as well as strange looks.

Fei felt that he was a zoo animal and all the plants were people watching him.

While the crowd was whispering among themselves…

"Look at that strange animal beside our forest lord… he is walking so strange"

"Do you think this is forest lord's new toy… look he is looking our way"

With those strange voices all around him, Fei felt like digging a hole and burying himself in it. While the whole crowd was whispering an elderly voice came from the front.

"We greet the Forest lord… may i know her highness's orders..?" an elderly mango tree came from behind the crowd.

"I have some work for the principle of the academy…." explained Aise.

Meanwhile a little lily came from the side and asked in girly voice to Aise,

"Forest lord… This individual is..?"

"This is Fei, a Gaul " Aise said while stroking little Lily's head.

Grasping noises came from the crowd.

"The legendary Gaul… Oh my God..." people around Fei started to whisper among themselves with shock.

Gauls were very popular among the plants as they took care of the plants.

Little lily came towards Fei. She seemed a little bit afraid as well as hesitant. But soon she made her mind and asked Fei

"Ummm …. Uncle Fei can I touch you..? I have never touched a gaul before..."

Little girl said with some hope in her eyes.

"Sure …. Why not… " said fei. Looking at the hopeful eyes of the little girl in front of him his heart softened. He bent forward and carried the little girl in his arms. Soon more and more little plants came forward

"Uncle carry me too…."

"Me too..."

At that time Fei was happy while carrying the kids. While the adults watched, their view on Fei also changed.

After some time Fei and Aise arrived at the Academy.

At the principal's office.

"Forest God .... " an old man said bowing in front of Aise.

Aise acknowledged and said to Fei "meet Old Wei, he is the principal of this academy and will be teaching you from today onwards."

When Fai saw the principal, he was shocked. The principal of the academy was actually an old man. This was the first time Fei saw a person in this plant kingdom.

Aise guessed what Fei was thinking as she said, "Don't go by the looks he is actually a banyan tree."

"How is this possible..?" Fei surprisingly asked.

"Once you reach a certain level of power you can change your appearance too" Aise said.

"Old wei take care of him..!" As Aise said that, she disappeared.

"Hello….my name is Fei." Looking at the old man, Fei felt pressured.

The old man silently stared at Fei without saying anything. Things got awkward really quickly. Finally the old man spoke

"When was the last time I saw a living gaul…. Haha… never thought that after 10,000 years I will see the lost kingdom's people again" There was some loneliness in the old man's eyes.

"You will stay here and learn real magic as well as Cultivation here." He said as he stretched out his hands and a barrier of green light formed around both of them.

As soon as the barrier fully formed Old Wei's face grew stearn as he looked at Fei and said seriously,

"Boy you have a responsibility to shoulder… you are one of the lost kingdom's only remaining survivor. If people found out the whole demon race will hunt you including your own kingdom"

Fei knew that this was a serious situation. Because of him awakening the bloodline of gauls he became a target of all the enemies. He looked at the old man in front of him and said resolutely,

"Is there any way to avoid that..?" Fei looked at the old man in his eyes

"Of course there is a way, in fact there are 2 ways..." old man looked at Fei and said.

"First one is to forcefully remove your bloodline… but doing so you will lose any ability to cultivate in future."

Old man evaluated Fei. Gauls were a warrior race, in face of destruction they never backed down and fought till the bitter end and died while protecting their kingdom.

If Fei choose this option 'I will kill him myself...' old man's eyes flashed

"What is the second option..?" Fei asked. Fei knew that he can't choose the first option because the whole Druid kingdom was relying on his power to fight against enemies. Once he becomes a cripple, the druid kingdom will be eaten by elves.

"The second option is to become stronger… stronger than the demons so that they will never dare to look for you. So strong that no one will dare to stop you.. You have to become God." old man said

"Listening to old man's words, Fei felt his blood boiling" he looked at Old Wei with hot eyes and said,

"I will choose the second option… I want to get stronger.. So strong that no one will stop my way." Fei said resolutely.

"Good… that's how a gaul should act." the old man patted Fei's shoulder and withdrew the green barrier. As he ordered,

"Go find a place for yourself to stay.. You can choose any unoccupied adobe you want."

"Thank you" Said Fei as he left the office.

As soon as Fei left the principal's office, Aise appeared in the office again.

"What do you think of him..?" asked Aise

"He is still hesitating about his bloodline, but the most important thing is, he care about his people." said old Wei while deep in thought.

"Maybe we still have a chance to defeat demons." Aise said.

"Time will only tell… as well as his resolve." said old Wei, sighing.
