A Cultivation Tale: The Godly Punisher

When he came out of the inn, with a face-altering treasure-mask now worn on his face since he didn't want to instantly attract attention towards himself, he began to walk leisurely walk down the street. And as he did so, he put his ears out for any discussion on a topic that he was greatly concerned about in his heart.

However, nothing they said was able to catch his interest.

He however kept listening, as he was sure that something odd or strange might be going on in the city, then that some set or group of people might gather at some place in the street to discuss about it with perplexity in their voices.

After walking for nearly twenty minutes, he passed by a large shop in the street that sold vases. Then seated on a wooden bench before the shop were an old man and a young boy who seemed to be probably his son. At the moment, they were discussing about something that suddenly piqued Alex's interest.

"That massive veil of rainbow-colored light that suddenly appeared in the city's sky a week ago, has been confirmed by the Demon-Killing Academy to be a dazzling, multi-colored radiance that was unrestrainedly emitted from a large, purple-colored bow that had abruptly surfaced in our world and then plunged to only heavens know where." The old man said while the young boy being spoken to had his eyes glow with astonishment.

"Grandpa, really?" The young boy asked with shock in his tone.

"Yes, son. And I guess that they didn't want to divulge the location of the bow so that no one would be able to get it. Greedy bastards them. I know that they want the weapon for themselves and probably use it to intimidate other academies in here. You know, from the colored, extreme eye-burning brilliance that the bow gave off as soon as it materialized in our world, you should be able to fully understand that it would be a godly weapon. One that was probably used by a Deity with great archery skills. So, being in possession of such a mighty weapon would definitely increase the level of that academy" The old man said, while the boy seated before him on the bench nodded his head with a glow of understanding in his eyes.

"I wish I was able to acquire such kind of bow." The young boy said with a fallen facial expression, while the old man who was his grandpa produced a slight smirk on his face. 

"Well, those greedy bastards who have discovered the location of the weapon won't make anyone know the location of the bow. And if anyone else knows it, that person may be wickedly slaughtered by them. So, just forget it son." The old man said. contemporary romance

He then continued "Besides, you aren't a cultivator. You are a mortal. So, how do want to obtain such kind of terrific weapon? Don't you know that even wielders of some certain weapons have to be really strong too, or the halo or ripples of power put by their weapons may simply crush them to death."

"Yea, I understand that too, grandpa. But is it really bad and dangerous to wish too? At least my wish won't kill me." The young boy said with a smile in his face while his grandpa nodded.

Just before they could continue speaking, Alex who had been listening to what they saying as he walked at a slow, leisured pace, suddenly appeared before them with a smile in the averagely attractive face that was produced by the face-changing treasure-mask that he wore.

"Hello" He greeted with a smile while the old man and his son nodded their heads at him.

"Would you like to purchase a vase?" The young boy stood to his feet and asked, ready to go in and give Alex the vase that he wanted to purchase from their shop.

"Well, yea. I would like to purchase a vase. But before you really get to that, there is something paramount that I want to discuss with you people. Now, on my way here, I overheard you guys from far discussing about a bow that suddenly appeared in the sky of this city and dyed both the sky, the earth and everything in it many blinding colors. Is that really true? Or it's just some rumor that have spreading round the streets of the city?" Alex asked to really confirm what the old man previously said to the young boy concerning some bow, as he just didn't want to venture into trying to obtain something that does not really exist.

Once Alex asked that, the old man and his son looked at Alex with shock in their eyes. Then they understood in the next moment that he was a cultivator. But they were really amazed at how he could hear them far. Cultivators don't really possess this kind of ability. Then they felt that perhaps he was using a long-distance, special hearing technique.

The old man then looked at Alex carefully and said "We are sorry, sir. We can't really discuss about the bow, due to how a particular academy has attached great importance to it. However, just know that it truly exists, and that it's a kind of weapon that would invoke the strong feeling in one that it was possibly forged by reverenced, supreme godhood treasure-forgers. Then if you really want to know more about the bow, you can visit the Demon-Killing academy. Only them really know much about the bow since they have announced that they have the place where the bow landed in. However, I am not sure if they would receive you well, since they have turned away a lot of people that came to offer them great wealth and treasures in exchange for just a small hint on where the bow could be found."

"Oh, okay. I understand. Thank you very much for this wonderful information." Alex said with concealed intense delight in his tone. He knew what this meant, that he was up for an exciting adventure in this city. 

He then spoke further with an amiable smile in his face as he unexpectedly produced a spatial ring in his hand, and then stretched it at the now dumbfounded young boy seated on the bench "Here, take this as payment for the information that you wonderful guys disclosed to me."

Once he did that, in which the perplexed young boy had accepted the spatial ring from his hand, he turned around to walk away without looking back.

Then with a smile in is face, he said with an aura of confidence beginning to swirl around him "The Demon-Killing academy might try to hide the place where the bow landed. But with that Eyes, all shall be ultimately revealed!"
