Spade let out a slight sigh. "I see you're protective over Damon, very well can we talk over a few drinks, when you were setting up your shop I saw you with a box full of things including alky. with what I have to share I'm going to need that drink." spade says in which old man butcher nodded and began walking.
they soon entered a large red building that was off to the side of the city. upon preparing to set everyone up in their new homes Damon instructed jolly to assign a few people buildings he believed would suit them. one of those people were old man butcher.
Damon had picked out a building that was a little ways from city traffic and other homes just like old man butcher's original spot in village city but this building was much bigger. walking in you could tell it was under a little construction as old man butcher was preparing to make it his new butcher shop. there were two areas that were huge with a ton of space.
"this boy gifted me this place in order for me to restart my simple business as a butcher." old man said to spade while putting Damon down softly on the only sofa in the middle of the floor. Javalin curled up beside Damon's head as they both walked away.
"but this place is way too big and so I've decided to make it three different things. my home, a butcher shop and a bar." he said walking to a long counter that already resembled a bar.
he then pulled two tall glass cups out of a box and a bottle of brown colored alky. after pouring them both a drink old man butcher was all ears.
"now, what about these questions you would like to ask Damon. well I know you are aware we aren't from here and what my people are,well on planet Hevot where we are from we faced many threats there and three decades ago a new one appeared which we call banes. they were the scaly creatures that attacked your city along with the most stupid mindful beasts that ever existed which were the others that were with the banes attacking the city."
"besides them, there was another in which we do not believe is a beast, not truly anyway called the hyencalue. as far as we know it's an ancient entity or creature before our time that was already on planet hevot."
"this creature knows no boundaries and will pursue its prey to the ends of each world in our realm. oh so you know about the realms of the universe I see." old man butcher says interrupting spade for a moment.
"yes and this creature does as well I solely believe. anyway the hyencalue as we call it is beyond powerful. kings after kings have tried to deal with it numerous of times and have failed. I myself and my king and best friend have come face to face with the hyencalue on several occasions and have failed to kill it."
"interesting, so if this hyencalue is so powerful and you have tried killing it many times before why are you still alive."
"because we were past what it prefers. it behaves in a strange way and only prefers kids and young adults from the ages of 13 to 25 at least that's what our ancestors gathered. it picks its prey by their potential somehow. we believe it's their potential of power or something else."
"there has been many cases where the hyencalue would seek these kids or young adults out and once found the hyencalue could track them no matter where they were. in those thousands of cases that were way beyond and before my time, record shows that the kids or young adults posses great potential. potential that rivaled the strongest kings that had ever existed on planet hevot and probably in the universe.
"the hyencalue will literally let a person with interest live long enough to obtain their full potential or somewhere near it and then seek them out. we have no clue if it's for pleasure or if it is a way for it to grow in strength."
"There have been many theories as to why but none are for sure. some even believe it's alive to balance the realm from people who are born with greater power than the gods themselves."
"so for you to say all of this would mean you have the belief that this all powerful one is here on planet syair." old man butcher asked.
"precisely, now I could be wrong but there is one distinct thing the hyencalue will leave behind after it releases a portion of its power that me and castle,my king and best friend witnessed with our own eyes. they absence of life. the state those trees were in at the area we found Damon looked very similar to what I mean."
"so you think Damon ran into this hyencalue." old man butcher asked.
"Yes, if my thoughts are correct."
"so you're telling me this foe will not kill anyone it's not interested in, is that's the reason you and your king survived all the encounters with this beast." old man butcher asked spade.
" no, I'm not saying that but, I will say it loves to toy with people especially if it knows you are not a threat to its strength. keep in mind we do not know it's true power,only that we had no chance at beating the hyencalue. it toyed with us every time we cornered it somewhere" spades adds.
"so, somehow during your retreat to this planet, it possibly followed you and your people." that is my assumption. spade says responding.
Old man butcher poured another drink for them both as he pondered about what spade was telling him.
"is there anyone within your crew that is here in this city the hyencalue has interest in as well."
spade took another drink while rubbing the hair on his chin a bit with a serious face. "yes miss lady Levy which is the daughter of king castle and a few others, one in particular is a young girl named vora which is Bisons niece" spade responded.
"if it is the hyencalue how would we tell. well it's simple, as soon as Damon wakes up and clarifies what exactly he saw I will know." spade responded.
"hmmmm, so if so, the only good thing about it, is all the young ones the hyencalue has picked out has time to become strong enough to defeat it." old man says.
" no, not exactly. this beast could defeat me if it wanted and we know for sure we were stronger than the kids and young adults it waited to pursue even after it killed them. there must be a condition it has to meet or something. otherwise it makes no sense." spade responded.
"A condition, from the sound of it you may be right. either way it's going to have its handful with Damon. Mr. butcher I know Damon is very promising and talented but this is something not even our strongest people could handle." spade says responding to the old man.
" oh I'm fully aware but you don't understand, you're not on planet hevot anymore. not to insult your race,your king and the powerful ones before your king but by the time this thing is ready to have Damon for lunch or whatever it does with the ones it gets, it will be too late."
"Damon will be ready and I'll make sure of it myself, especially if I'm too weak to stop it. old man butcher says.
after a while of talking and sipping on some more alky spade took his leave.
old man butcher decided to take Damon upstairs. After getting Damon upstairs into a bed the old man butcher walked back down and sat in Indian style on the floor with praying hands. in seconds a gold light surrounded his body as he whispered a few words. "light of my light"
