Legend Of Lightning Warriors II: The Eye of the Gods
Companions
Companions.
Just one word. And that was all Shin Shui wanted. There is no other word.
For Shin Shui, best friends were much more important than anything in this world after family. Friends can be friends, they can be brothers, they can even be family.
If the person who loves you is gone from your life, but friends will always be there for you. He's not going. Even if everyone leaves your life, a true friend will be with you. He will always be by your side. Even if the world is destroyed, friends are friends.
He will still be your best friend. There are ex-lovers, but no ex-friends.
But in today's life, how many people know about true friends?
Not many? Maybe right now there is not much. But there will still be people who understand about true friends. Whether it is now, or in the future.
The Red Dragon Emperor was stunned to hear Shin Shui's remark. He never expected that his 'helper god' would want no reward except that word.
She happily hugged Shin Shui tightly. There is no doubt, no fear. There is only mutual trust.
"Until death, I will remain your companion. Whatever happens even if I have to be killed, I will still say that you are my best friend," said the Red Dragon Emperor as he shed his tears.
"Thank you .. friend. I hope, we can help each other," Shin Shui said.
"certain. I'll help you whenever you need,"
"I'm the other way around, too" replied Shin Shui.
The two of them let go of their embrace slowly. No more words they say. There was only a warm smile.
A smile of a true friend.
Chen Li chose to be quiet. He does not speak or move. The boy chose to be silent like a statue and take a lesson from what was going on before his eyes.
"Little brother, what are you asking for?" asked the Red Dragon Emperor while smiling gently to Chen Li.
"I don't want anything Emperor," Chen Li replied smiling.
"Eh, don't be. Don't follow along like your stupid father," he said with a laugh, Shin Shui laughed happily.
"But …"
"Already, let me decide," said the Red Dragon Emperor.
Then he walked around the room. After a while, he finally returned. In both hands were some things.
"This is the Book of the God Flute. It's called the God Flute, the pair of these books. And this is called the Blood Red Sword. These three things are not just an heirloom. Thousands of years ago, they shook the heavens and the earth. But you must not use all three before you reach eighteen. Because it would put your life at risk. But if you get to that age, you can wear it. Remember, keep these three things in good stead" the Red Dragon Emperor said as he passed them on to Chen Li.
"Thank you Emperor. I'll remember your kindness at any moment" he said, saluting and inserting the three objects into his Ring of Space.
"Ah one more, a minute," he again walked around the room. Not long after it's back.
"Here," he said, giving an egg a red color the size of an adult's fist.
"Is this the Emperor?"
"This is the Phoenix King's bird egg. It hasn't hatched in decades. According to what I know, these eggs will hatch after a hundred years. And in two years, these eggs will hatch. Hope you take good care of it, because this egg is most sought after by all warriors," the Red Dragon Emperor explained.
"Thank you Emperor. I will guard all the Emperor's gifts with all my abilities" Chen Li said.
"Good boy. A good father always gives birth to a wonderful child" he said sincerely.
Shin Shui only laughed at the compliment.
After they finished, they immediately returned again to the Imperial Palace. The room immediately closed tightly back as usual.
They arrived at the beginning room. They spoke at length again while enjoying the beauty of nature.
"Decree …"
"Don't call me a swordsman anymore" said Shin Shui cutting off the Red Dragon Emperor's remark.
"What is that stuff?"
Without saying much, the Red Dragon Emperor again took out a badge bearing the dragon head. But this badge looks more beautiful and antique.
"This is a special badge. Not all demons can have it. Seeing this, it would be the same as seeing me. You can use it one time. Besides, I can also tell if there is any danger threatening you," the Red Dragon Emperor said as he gave the badge.
"Good thanks. I also want to give you a badge. I hope you will accept it. This is the badge of the Chief Elder, who has this badge, then all his words will be obeyed," Shin Shui said as he gave a special badge to the Chief Elder of the Thunderbolt Sect.
"alright. Thank you," replied the Red Dragon Emperor.
Chen Li stood by the open window. His eyes swept across the entire scene.
Her hair fluttered in the gentle breeze. The air today is very bright, life looks very peaceful.
Chen Li took out a green jade flute. He started playing a beautiful and beautiful song. But behind that beauty, there was a feeling that was hard to describe for Shin Shui and the Red Dragon Emperor. Chen Li blew the flute while sometimes reciting a verse that he made out perfunctory yet soulful.
The poem is about the separation of two friends.
Companions
He's not a brother
Not the family
But he, he could be both
Friends are still friends
Whatever happens
He'll be your best friend
Even if the earth is destroyed, he is still your friend
Friends in this world are many
But true friends are few
True friends don't need to know for long
For a moment, but trust each other
Later, even true friends are far away
He still thinks of you as a friend
Friends far away, remember
That I always wait for you to come back
There were no tears the two new friends broke. This poem really tells about them. The two had only known her for a month, but it felt like that alone was enough to make her a true friend.
###
The expected day has arrived. The Red Dragon Emperor and the others ushered in the departure of Shin Shui and Chen Li. A large enough portal in red is available.
Farewell has arrived. The two new friends will be separated. Both shed tears. I don't know when they will meet again, but for the two, they already understand each other.
Without saying much, the Red Dragon Emperor and the others simply hugged warmly with Shin Shui and his son.
The father and son entered the portal. The two waved their hands while giving a farewell smile. Before long, the portal slowly disappeared.
"Good road, my friend. Hopefully someday we can meet again" the Red Dragon Emperor muttered with a smile.
Farewell is always sad.
