THE BLACK GOD OF DEATH
CH. 147

The two Lightning Tigers shot towards him very quickly, everyone who saw him was extremely worried including Yumiko, Airis, Astia, and the others as well. However, out of all the people present, only he was the one who responded to this situation calmly. Because, the moment he saw the two Lightning Tigers heading towards him, he did not feel any killing intent from the two beasts at all.

On arrival the two near Xi, suddenly the two stopped. They stood before Xi, and sniffed his scent. Smelling Xi's scent had the same scent they had smelled under the hill, the two became delighted, and began to rub their bodies against Xi's feet and hands spoiled.

While doing that, both of them looked extremely cute like a spoiled cat. But they are a fierce tiger. It's just that they show their gentle side to people close to them.

Everyone was stunned, their jaws dropped to the floor. Watching an extremely dangerous savage beast turn tame and look like a spoiled kitten, leaving them unable to think.

" I this... Lying around? "

" How is it possible... That ferocious Lightning Tiger turned and looked like a kitten before him? "

" Aaaaaaa, is the world currently in chaos? How could the two creatures be tamed to that person? "

They were astonished - astonished, and did not expect what they saw. They still cannot accept what they see with their own eyes, and consider what they see to be just a dream.

But, when each of those people pinched themselves, they finally realized, what they saw before was reality, and not the boast of artificial illusions.

" What - what the hell is this, why do I feel that the world is unfair to me?! Why didn't the two monsters just choose me as their master? Aaaaaa! "

" The world is cruel! "

" Damn it! The boy was so lucky to be able to get both lightning tigers so easily even without a fight, I really envy him! "

Everyone was angry and felt unacceptable with the reality of life. They asked, why are they not the only ones chosen by the two monsters? Why that weak-looking boy?

This scene, incited hatred for many, and not a few of them were envious of seeing the situation.

All eyes were on him, yet Xi paid them no heed. Whatever they were talking about, and whatever they were discussing, Xi did not care about it. As long as it did not bother him, and did not intend or plan to kill him, Xi would let them go and let them go. However, it would be different if they tried or planned to kill Xi, before they came and hunted Xi down, Xi - the one who would come first for them to take their lives.

When he saw the two tigers up close, Xi realized something about them.

" Uh? These two tigers... Do I feel familiar with them? Supposedly, these two Lightning Tigers were the baby lightning tigers that I found in the hidden word city of Jisa. I did not expect, in just this short time they had already become this big and powerful. Monsters are different. " Murm Xi in his heart. After recalling, Xi realized that the two lightning tigers were baby monsters that he had once given to Aiko, Su, and Annya.

Xi rubbed the heads of the two tigers gently, it made both of them feel very comfortable, to the point of making them fall to the ground because they were unable to withstand the comfort. However, in their hearts, they still wanted more, that was why they were wriggling on the ground like a cat in general.

A woman's voice rang out, looking as if a running woman was calling out the names of the two tigers. " Haku, Jasmine... Hah, huh, why are you guys running around like that? " Say the woman with a gasping breath. He was tired of running after both.

Seeing his familiar lying on the ground, it had confused him. However, when you see it more clearly, both are fine. There was nothing to worry about, they were just lying limp on the ground.

" What happened to those two? Do they fall asleep because they are too tired? " Task Su to himself. Su has now grown into a very beautiful woman, her beauty is very famous in the city she lives in. She was the prettiest daughter among the daughters of other noble families in her city.

Looking at the woman, Xi felt an aura that she thought was very familiar. A calm existence, and having an ice-cold energy, Xi realized that the woman was Su. Someone who had become his partner in the city of Jisa first.

" Su, is that you? " Said Xi, calling the woman while asking if she was really the Su she knew back in Jisa city.

Su turned his head towards the source of the voice, and he spoke while looking at a white-haired man standing amongst the Lightning Tiger. " yeah? "When he saw it more clearly, he stopped talking for a moment. Realizing that the person before him was the one he knew, Xi. Su Showed his surprised expression, as well as he was also happy to be able to meet Xi again after a long time of not meeting. " Sister Xi, it's you. I barely realized it, because your existence I could not feel. And it seems, you are also becoming taller than before. " Say Su to Xi.

" really? " Tanya Xi while raising one eyebrow.

Su nodded slowly, stating it was true. He also saw someone he still knew. " And you're Airis, right? It's good to see you again. " Su said hello to Airis who is also his friend when in Jisa City.

Airis just nodded in response, he did not want to talk much, it was because he forgot Su who in because they rarely met. Airis just kept quiet, to hide her suspicions against Su, so that Su thought that she really did not forget her.

On the other hand, Su was happy because Airis each remembered him. At the same time, there came a beautiful and sweet woman. He jumped up and came directly to hug Xi very tightly.

It made everyone surprised. Even Su who came with him was also surprised.

" Sister Xi, it's been a long time since I've seen you! Do you miss me too? " Tell the girl. He was so jovial and childish, yet he always thought positively, and was kind to everyone.

Su who saw his friend arrive - suddenly came directly to hug Xi, he said "Aiko, what do you do? You can't be like that... " Su said to Aiko. He said that to Aiko, because such an act was disrespectful to someone he had just met.

Aiko who heard it, replied "Hee?! Wh why? I guess it doesn't matter because he's Brother Xi. " Aiko replied to Su. He was in favor of Su. For Aiko, as long as it was Xi, it didn't matter, because she thought of Xi as her own brother. " Sister Xi said this to me, even if time passed by for years, I was still a child in his eyes. " Aiko defended herself not to be blamed.

Meanwhile, Xi who heard it, had a sweaty face and muttered "When did I say that? " Xi was surprised where Aiko heard these words. Feeling uncomfortable, Xi took off Aiko's embrace quietly while saying "I don't know when I'm saying that, but in the future you can't do this anymore. Now that you're an adult, it's different from two years ago. " Say Xi to Aiko.

Xi added "I don't forbid you from being spoiled, but if you do this, be special to your family, especially your parents or your brothers and sisters. " Subsequently Xi.

Aiko paused for a moment listening to Xi's explanation, instead of listening well, what Xi said just now went in the left ear and out the right ear. There was not a single word Xi attached to Aiko. He just kept silent while smiling still at Xi.

Xi let out his breath, and thought it was exhausting to have a sister like Aiko. It reminded her of Alsia who had always been spoiled to herself when she was still on earth.

" Nee, that's Su... Did you two just come? " Task Airis to Su.

Su shook his head slowly, and told Airis "No, we came with our brother. " Answer Su.

Airis was confused as to who his brother meant. Because right now he only saw Su and Aiko, and for both Lightning Tiger was not counted.

" Where is your brother? " Task Airis again to Su.

Su answered Airis' question with an unpleasant facial expression, and was a little sweaty. Su felt a little guilty for running after Haka out of worry, so he and Aiko left her brothers and sisters behind.

" Eeee, it seems like they were lagging behind as we chased after Haka and Haku. " Answer Su. Su sweated, and felt something bad was about to happen. It's about his brother who's probably going to make trouble for Xi and his friends.

Shortly as Yu answered Airis' question, a dashing man came over to Yu nagging. " Hey, Yu, what are you doing? Why did you leave me alone behind? If you want to chase after Haka, wait for me! What if something happens to you? What should I say to my father if my foolish brother is hurt? " She said while nagging - nagging to Yu. This man was Yu's brother, unlike his younger brother who was good at using magic, this man followed his father's footsteps and inherited to ahlia an amazing sword art. This man's name was Girad Hiroshi, the first son of the noble family in the Hiroshi family. He was also a Rank S storied knight, which was the best among the best.

Yu responded to her brother's nagging with a gloomy face, yet she knew her brother was actually just worried about her.

After finishing nagging Yu, Girad looked at Xi with the glare of his sharp eyes. In his view, he saw this Xi was a depraved bastard who liked to play with many women. Girad disliked Xi, feeling that this Xi was not a good man and did not fit in with his sister.

Seeing the presence of many beautiful women gathered by his side, adding a bad impression of him in Girad's eyes. Not only did she not like it, but she also envied Xi for being so popular with women. It made him angry and annoyed.

In response to Girad's sharp eyes, Xi narrowed his eyes while putting on a flat face. From the expression that Girad had shown him, Xi could already guess if Girad disliked being around Yu.

" I know you don't like me, but what - what's that look? Isn't that too much? Why don't you just stop, I'm afraid your eyeballs will be off your face. " Tell Xi in his heart, smiling awkwardly as he talked about Girad big brother Yu in his heart.

Seeing the look of her brother's sharp eyes on Xi, Yu thought that her brother wanted to meet his friend, but he was embarrassed because this was the first time he met his friends.

" I'm sorry to introduce myself so late, my friends are Yu Hiroshi, and this is my brother Girad Hiroshi. He's a little shy, but he's a nice guy. I hope everyone can be good friends with him. " Said Yu. He once again introduced himself to Xi and his colleagues. Because many of them Yu did not know, and Yu had never seen before. It was only natural for Yu to introduce herself to Xi's friends in order to get a good impression of them and get along.

Girad, who heard his brother impale himself in front of his friends, could not accept, and defended all of Yu's words with a loud tone. " Ka - you're careless! I'm not shy! It's just that I don't like being friends with weak people, what else does a suspicious person look like that person, want to see from any side, he looks like a bad person! " Girad said, arguing that he was not a shy person. He also branded Xi a criminal, and for him, such a person was not worthy of him being made a friend.

Although he spoke in a high voice, but in reality he was not angry at Yu at all. Just showing his authority as a man.

Airis, Astia, Yanzams, Ciara, and Nue heard their master was being humbled and despised by Girad they were very upset. A powerful and terrifying aura emanated from each of them, and all of it was fixed on the Girad who had just been badmouthing their master.

The girad who felt a suffocating aura and felt like an extremely strong killing intent from those people, he felt intimidated by them, it made his immense courage shrink in an instant.

With a whole body trembling, and a blackened face accompanied by a lot of sweat. Girad muttered in his heart about those people "A tremendous killing intent... What - what the hell are these people? Gawat, looks like I've been looking for trouble with the wrong person?!! " Murmurm.

Meanwhile, Xi who heard Girad's ravings just kept quiet while slightly smiling awkwardly. " What he said wasn't wrong either, there was nothing good about me but... Seeing her being bullied by all of them I felt sorry for. " May Xi said in his heart, he could only close his eyes when he saw Girad being bullied by his subordinates.

" Ohya! Who is this that looks like a kid in the bullies? " The voice of a sweet woman is heard. A beautiful and sexy woman came to them. This beautiful woman was Aiko's oldest sister in her family. He and Aiko have the same class, which is a Support with the main ability to heal. Only, what distinguishes between the two is their experience, and their ranking. Aiko is currently a Rank A Healer, while she is a Rank S Healer.

Not only are their experiences and abilities different, but also their personalities. Aiko who looks like a sweet, childish easy girl - a jolly boy, and her brother really shows the aura of maturity like an older brother. It was absolutely perfect, and it captivated the hearts of men. Her beauty was amazing, and it was hard for the men to reject her.

The charm that he showed made many men's eyes fixed on him, not least Girad who idolized him. However, among the men, there was only one man who was not interested in his charm, not even the man showed any response to him.

" Uh? This guy's... Totally different. Unlike other men, he looks calm and even looks unshakable in front of a beautiful woman like me? Um, hehe, he's pretty interesting... L like it. " The word is in the heart. Seeing Xi's calm response facing him, amazed him and became interested in Xi. However, what he does not know, actually Xi is not interested in him, no matter how good it looks, it will not make Xi affected or fall into his hands.

" Sister, you've finally come! Here let me introduce you to the person I talk about a lot! " Aiko quickly grabbed her brother's hand, and pulled it.

" Brother Xi, introduce. This is my brother Ran, he's a S Rank healer. " Aiko continues to Xi.

Ran, as Aiko's older sister, she nicks Aiko's head. With a look and expression of his face that looks upset, Ran also spoke to Aiko while tightening his teeth. " Foolish boy, why are you even willing to tell it to a stranger! " Ran told Aiko.

Aiko who had her head in a pitak, she immediately held her head and cried. He ran and hid behind Yu. While crying, he also answered to help Ran's words.

" No, Brother Xi is not a stranger, he is also my brother! " Aiko said while crying.

Xi who saw and heard it, was even ashamed of himself. Her face was also sweating because thinking about her nature Aiko was completely similar to Alsia.

Because her clean little brother loudly considered Xi not an outsider, he could do nothing but obey her. Otherwise, he was worried that Aiko would cry all day. And it would definitely trouble him.

" Haaa, it's up to you. " Say to Aiko. Because Aiko was still crying. " Ne, as Aiko said, I'm Aiko's sister. You can call me Ran. " Ran said to everyone.

Everyone nodded, welcoming. Looking at Xi, Ran took a few steps forward and said "So you are, which my sister always talks about. Xi right? " Ran said to Xi.

Xi responded with just a slow nod.

Ran continued. " I don't know what makes my sister so impressed with you, but Yu once told me that you're a strong person. I don't know how strong you are, but I have to say thank you. " Said Ran. She showed her true intentions, behaving politely like a noble lady. " Mister Xi, thank you for taking good care of my sister in Jisa City. The kindness of Mr. Xi will definitely be remembered always. " Next Ran.

Xi, who heard the sincere revelation from Ran, was happy but also uncomfortable because he was respected by many people.

" Look your head up, about Aiko, I didn't do much either. They can all survive as well thanks to their respective abilities. I'm just helping out a little. " Said Xi, a little low on Ran, as he did not want to be seen standing out in front of many people.

Ran chuckled as he covered his face with both palms. He said to Xi "There's no need to go down like that, I'm sure you're an amazing person because Yu said it. Hopefully we can be familiar, and become good partners in the future. " Ran said as he extended his hand to Xi.

Xi held Ran's hand happily, not because Ran was beautiful, but because Aiko had considered him a brother. " Yes, please help. " Reply Xi to Ran.

After arm-wearing, Ran looked at Xi's colleagues. There he sees Yumiko, who he knows is the son of Queen Elsia. Seeing her being near Xi, Ran felt that this Yumiko and Xi had a close relationship.

" I'm sorry for the delay I realized Princess, I Ran saluted Princess Yumiko. " Ran said to Yumiko.

Yumiko who saw Ran lower her head for her felt bad. He immediately asked Ran to raise his head back by saying "Miss Ran, you don't need to be so polite. Besides this in a public place, you can talk casually with me like a friend. " Say Yumiko.

Ran smiled softly, as Yumiko forgave her sassness just now. He lifted his head, saying "Daughter, it seems like you have a close relationship with Xi, are you two a couple? If so, forgive me and my sister for being so lazy. Looking at this manly, and always calm man got me interested at first. Very different from a man I know is so childish. " Ran said to Yumiko.

Her face flushed red as Ran said she and Xi were a couple. She was embarrassed to say it, but hearing it also made her happy. " No, it's okay... And also, me and Xi... " Say Yumiko - ashamed to admit it.

Even though he was calm as if he had heard nothing. But in his heart he was also embarrassed. Xi thought hard, trying to find an excuse to change the subject. Because if he keeps talking about this, it makes him even more embarrassed.

When Xi was confused to look for a topic, Aiko suddenly slipped and asked Xi something excitedly.

" Sister Xi, we haven't seen each other in a long time, I know Brother Xi is very strong. But how strong are you now? Can you defeat the dragon? " Aiko asked Xi excitedly and was also curious.

Xi who heard Aiko's question, he was relieved because Aiko helped him shift the topic. But Ran who heard it instead felt embarrassed because Aiko asked something so impossible. He also pulled Aiko's ear, because he had asked Xi something ridiculous.

" What other ridiculous thing are you asking? A dragon is always a dragon. They are strong and aggressive creatures, very territorial and hate all creatures that enter their territory. A young dragon alone is able to flatten a city, what else is mature, must have been able to destroy a country. Asking that to your sister isn't that stupid? " Ran said to Aiko while scolding her for being too blunt.

" Eee, what's wrong? I'm just asking! " Say Aiko.

" If you ask me how strong I don't know either, but if you ask me have I ever defeated a dragon? Yeah, I've been. I once defeated a dragon king who was then rampaging in the empire. " Xi replied, he also showed the evidence by showing a dragon eyeball from Dragon King Drozan that he had defeated before. Looking at the dragon's eyes that were even larger than Xi's palm, even when it was already in the smallest. It made everyone surprised, which they could clearly see was the true eyes of a dragon. Even just by looking at his body parts of a dead dragon, it still gave a feeling of threat to them. " This I got from the Dragon King that I had already defeated while fighting against him. " Subsequently Xi.

" You... You killed a dragon king? Even my father who brought a lot of troops could not afford to injure a dragon at the level of a dragon king. " Say Girad in disbelief. However, looking at the evidence before his eyes, he now realized how big the difference in strength between himself and Xi was. A person who can defeat a dragon is already great, but killing a dragon king is simply too incredible. In this world, not even the five heroes among them had ever killed a dragon king. In fact, they were slaughtered by the Dragon King.

" It was no wonder why there were so many beautiful women by his side, it turned out that he was this strong. That means, in our generation, this young man is the strongest, and the best among the best. The strongest young man as well as the strongest adventurer at the moment was him. If I face him... I'm definitely not a match for him. Making him an enemy is too dangerous, I am grateful that Yu is good friends with him. " Girad said in his heart. Thinking of Xi being able to kill a dragon king, already stressful him. What else if it made him an enemy, it would definitely be a disaster for his country. Because of this, he changed his view of Xi, and let Yu be good friends with him, in order to establish a good friendship in the future. And of course, connecting someone extraordinary must be very profitable.

" Sister Xi... You are truly amazing! " Praise Yu.

" Waaaa, that's cool. Since it was Brother Xi who said it himself, naturally I believe it! It's cool, too cool! " Aiko. While praising Xi's prowess, he also curiously and passionately held and touched the eyes of the dragon that was in Xi's palm.

Seeing that reality, Nue and Ciarra realized something. That the strength they are proud of today cannot be compared to their master. It can be admitted that they are strong, and the best among the best. But, comparing their achievements with their master, made them realize how weak they were before their master. His master is too strong.

" So all this time, when he fought with me that night... It's not just a coincidence. But it was planned by him... And during the fight that night, even when we were serious... Like the master has not yet unleashed his full strength. " Nue said in his heart. He realized at that time, they had indeed made a mistake, so they were so unlucky to meet Xi who was stronger than them. However, Nue did not regret, instead he was happy to meet someone strong. This makes the experience as well as life learning for him. That he should not underestimate another person as weak as that person may be, for he will not know how much power that person hides.

Ciarra in his heart said "No wonder he was able to defeat me and Nue, it turns out that this master is an extraordinary person. But, with this much power, why does he still need us? He could have achieved greater achievements without our help. I don't know why, but following you was the right decision. I have to get stronger so I can keep following him even if it's just from behind. " Ciarra was motivated to become stronger when she knew Xi was capable of killing dragon king. He became even more eager to become stronger, and stronger so that he could continue to follow Xi on to further and wider journeys in the future.

" Sister Xi, since you've already defeated a dragon, are you interested in fighting the dragon again? " Aiko asked Xi.

Xi smiled lightly, answering Aiko's question quietly "Yes, if it's there, I want to deal with it. " Answer Xi who is interested. Because a year only a dragon king can make him fight with full strength.

" really? Then why don't we go to the dragon's lair now? In this large forest of Green Forest there is a nest of land dragons. The dragon was extremely powerful, it used to slaughter many adventurers who entered its territory... " Say Aiko excitedly. He wanted to take Xi to the nest of a land dragon that was still in the large forest area of the Green Forest. More precisely was the border between the great forest of the Green Forest and the Swamp Forest. But, when he wanted to tell the location of his nest, he stopped talking because he heard the sound of someone shouting.

" PLEASE! HELP US! HUH, HUH... WE'RE ALL IN TROUBLE NOW! THERE ARE MONSTERS MOVING HERE IN LARGE NUMBERS! " Shouted an adventurer who was agitated - agile and filled with many wounds on his body. Not only himself, but also all of his party members were all injured as well. Some of them are even unconscious.

The man's shout suddenly made everyone very shocked as well as panicked. They could not believe that a large number of monsters were moving. But, seeing the man and his patrons severely injured and frightened, they thought back to what the man had said. If there were indeed a large number of monsters heading towards them, it was obvious that they were currently in trouble.
