The Moon In Darkness
Ch.39 Dinner

Sturdy building, neat brick cobbled streets, and a male statue made of gold in the city square, the city square, was a real picture that could be seen in the western Imperial capital.

"mad, who is this guy?" said An while shaking his waist in front of the statue.

"aha! kidding me? there's no way you don't know him!" timpal is a man who accidentally hears An's words.

"why, then, would I act like I didn't know if I knew?" reply An while glancing at the person he does not like.

"that man! he was the 11th emperor of the western Empire, Xingguang Zhao! an authoritative, most generous and one who has full power in this Empire!" exclaim the man with spirit.

"oh, the emperor turned out. "an muttered unconcernedly to the man's words, he looked at the golden statue and once again muttered, "his eyes.. "

"ah! you noticed huh?! emperor Zhao's eyes were made of zapyr¹ jewels! cool right?! " the man was stirring.

"be quiet! not that " snapped An.

my feeling or not, the emperor's eyes were like they contained a strange chi.The girl's inner, she then turned around to look at something else that she found more interesting.

An walked slowly down every store and alley, he then pulled over and leaned his body on an abandoned building that seemed to be in the repair phase.

"hey, so go tonight?" ask someone from behind the wall.

"of course! I've raised a lot of money to buy illegal goods and enter the green auction!"

"aha! green auction? are you crazy, huh? even poor people like us who can enter the black market should bow down in gratitude. When did you ask the rich man's place?" the man told his friend.

"whatever! anyway as always, we gather in front of the golden statue at midnight and have fun!" timpal his friend spirit.

An smiled and passed away while muttering, "green auction.don't tell me the place where the auction is held is all green? or the owner's a fool?"

"well, anyway midnight I'll walk again." he continued, An then walk the road until it gets dark, then, he rushed home because he had seen the lotus² warrior patrolling and seemed to be looking for something.

By the time he arrived at the entrance of the residence, Chyou was already standing there knowing that he was going home, "have you satisfied playing?" said the man with a smile.

"yet." said An, because he did not want to lose he joined in smiling and acting like a sweet sister, "can I go again?"

"no. Come in and I'll take you to the pavilion to prepare to be ready." Chyou exclaimed firmly, he then used his chin and made An's body float in the air.

"where?" tanya An while pulling Chyou's hair in the air.

"your first family dinner doesn't have to be memorable?" chyou said while grinning ignorantly at An.

"basis brother damn.." An replied with all the little pitched swearing that came out of his lips.

"Disrespectful girl." Chyou's chimpanzee was accompanied by jokes and laughter.

The two of them returned to the bamboo pavilion, where An lived. As they arrive, Arum welcomes An and Chyou politely.

Chyou tells Arum that An will attend dinner and asks Arum to help him pick out clothes as well.

30 Minutes had passed since the conversation between the two, the grueling and terrible preparation for a small body.

"yes.. Thank you Arum." An tired reply, he then glanced at a makeup mirror in front of him, emblazoned with the face of a sweet 13-year-old girl there. Deep black hair, sapphire blue eyes, white skin combined with thin thin makeup, also a slim body.

"hm... no fleshy." lamented An holding his face and hands which were only bones wrapped in skin, "is he really this thin? why didn't I realize it?" muttered An astonishment.

An then turned his eyes to a drawer under the dresser, where he kept a little of the stuff he was carrying.

He pulled the drawer and saw a white fox mask given from Jie to him, "the fox?" not yet had time to remember something in question, Arum came to deliver An to the main house, where dinner was held.

Due to the location of the pavilion being close by, they only walked for a short while and got to their destination. As expected, when An entered the room everyone started staring at him. Be it the servants are also the owners.

An smiled in response to the sharp gaze, he walked over, sat down on the remaining chair and started his acting act.

At that moment, in a magnificent room that had a dim light, two adult men were chatting with a gripping aura.

"i got word yesterday that the first son of the Wu family was carrying his long-lost brother. The son of Miss Shilin and Master Zhang, Lian Wu." obviously someone who wore the young duke's proper clothes, The man wore a black mask that covered the entire face, with the lion symbol right in the middle of his forehead.

"well, I seem to have seen. The boy from Shilin and the man" said the man sitting opposite the lion masked man.

"he has beautiful sapphire eyes like all his family" he continued.

"do I have to investigate further?" the Pinta Duke.

"no need, as long as he and his family are useful, we don't have to harass them. Oh yeah, open the gates of the night market full night today." The man raised his leg and put it on the table.

"yes. well, I'll excuse you. "the moment after the lion masked man said it, he instantly disappeared without a trace, leaving the man with the scar on his chest in that dark room.

......................

The gem of Zapyr¹, a rare first that only exists in the southern regions, has a reddish purple color and incredible strength. This gem gives off a hot aura that can only be touched if it has chi with natural strength (myrax) where chi users are very rare. That's why few people can use zapyr gems as jewelry.

The Lotus² Warrior, the Wu residence warrior led directly by Chyou Wu, they were usually tasked with delivering messages, participating in raids, patrolling, even infiltrating enemy areas. Always use armor that has a golden lotus symbol on their chest.

Usually, the soldiers were taken Chyou from the common people and also travelers, very rarely Chyou took soldiers from noble children or relatives of his relatives. Most of them were young men who had no family, which was why so many girls were flocking in line to get one of them.
