Soul Delivery (English)

Portal Between Two Realm

Jino was glad when he saw Marchio return. He immediately jumped into his arms.

Waylinn apologized to Marchio and told everything that happened. “My lord, I apologize for my fail to carry out all the orders. I failed to keep Jino and Kiervant Sky.”

Marchio watched Kiervant Sky’s shattered. He looked very angry. It made Waylinn very scared.

Waylinn continued, “Something happened to Heka. Half of his soul came out, then transformed into another  Heka. He destroyed Kiervant Sky and also attacked Jino. He was very strong and I can’t fight him.”

Marchio saw Jino. Although he wasn’t hurt, he pretended to be the most unfortunate and suffering creature.

“I’m sorry. I’m ready to accept the punishment.” Every pariah who cannot carry out the orders, must be ready to accept all kind of punishments.

All of Waylinn has, it was a gift from Marchio, including his life. Therefore, if Marchio wanted to take it back, it was fair. He was always ready for it.

Marchio looked at the Kiervant Sky wall which was patched with wood. Waylinn realized that he had become useless. “My lord, sorry. Heka has destroyed Kiervant Sky. So I covered it with wood. I think it’s better than letting it stuck with holes. I’m afraid something will happen to Jino if I let him stay with holes. Meanwhile, I went looking for Master.”

But what can he did, Kiervant Sky was made by Marchio. He used her crystal element. So Waylinn never be able to fix it. Because Marchio the only one who could be.

Marchio became curious about what made Heka very strong. Even his strength was almost equivalent to his strength.

“So far, no one has been able to hit my crystal. Who does exactly controls Heka to have such great power?”

He crushed the wooden patch on the Kiervant Sky by just snapping one finger. The wood felt immediately. Then, he fixed the Kiervant Sky hole.

“Recover your body. After that, go to the human realm and destroy Heka. Put his soul into the phoenic bracelet.”

“Okay.” Although he was relieved that Marchio didn’t end his life. However, the task was too hard for him. Moreover, Heka’s strength was much greater than his. Although he was hesitant, he had to try hard to do it.

“Wait, before it, you go to Lantigia, bring me a Spirit Ward.” Marchio pulled out a feather and gave it to Waylinn. He also did not forget that an outcast who was now in his hands. “I don’t want to take the risk by letting him wander around.”

“Okay.” Waylinn said. He left them.

***

In front of the Kiervant Sky gate, Waylinn saw the Fox Princess. She was not alone. There was a human beside her.

“Where’s Marchio? Can I come in?” The fox princess said.

“He’s inside.” Waylinn didn’t go, but he drove Princess Fox first to meet Marchio.

“My lord, the Fox Princess has come.”

Jino who saw the Fox Princess came along with a dragon. He felt happy. He jumped from Marchio’s arms and went straight to Yulan.

But when Jino approached Yulan, Yulan dodged. They also played chase around.

“How dare you bring humans into the Immortal world.” Marchio said. Marchio did not like human who was beside her. She was a nun.

“How did she come here, it's none of your business. I’m just asking you to open the portal to the human realm.” Princess Fox said curtly. She didn’t like other  one of judged her without knew what she did before.

She saw Heka lying on the sofa. She used it to reply to Marchio’s words. “It seems that Kiervant Sky has become a human shelter.”

Marchio explained briefly, “He is not completely human.”. It was true, Heka was no longer human. His life was on the verge and edge.

He has been used as a sacrifice. It meant that his soul has destroyed. Therefore, Marchio had trapped Heka’s soul. So, no one have Heka completely.

“Okay, I’ll open the portal. Is there a place you want to go?” Marchio asked.

“Anywhere, bu it is not in the middle of the forest or the ocean.” The Fox Princess didn’t care about the place that Marchio chose. For her, the most important was to return to the human realm.

“How are you going to pay me?” Marchio reminded about the rules in the Immortal realm. If you want to ask for help, you have to pay for it.

The Fox Princess already knew about it and she had prepared it. “I’ll give you Arlecchino.” Arclecchino was the demon who was under her control. Although, she was much stronger than the Fox Princess, the Fox Princess had a much higher caste.  Afterward, Arclecchino was his servant.

However, Marchio refused, “I don’t need a new slave.”

“Then, what do you want?”

Marchio just smiled sarcastically. The fox princess added, “Don’t make it difficult for me.” He felt that Marchio wanted, was quite difficult for her to give. “Don’t make me your slave.”

“Don’t worry. I don’t need a new slave.” Marchio approached her. He touched her head. Then, she turned into white fox completely.

Marchio touched the fox princess’ tail. He cut half of his tail. “Your hair is very smooth and soft. I want this. After all, your tail can grow back.”

She walked towards the door. “Come in from here.”

Her tail turned shorter. Although the cut was completely closed, she didn’t expect that Marchio wanted his tail. Then she transform back into a human. But, her black hair turned white.

She felt disapproved when her tail was cut off by Marchio. It was true, the tail can grow back long as before. But, it took a long time.

He stood up and reminded Yulan to no longer play with Jino, “Yulan, let’s go.” Then they walked towards the door. Followed by Yulan and the nun who was with her, so did Jino.

When she held the door. Marchio stopped her. “It seems, someone is trying to open a portal for you.”

“I know.” The Fox Princess already knew who the person Marchio was referring to.

Marchio threw his wings. He blew a feather and gave it to her. “It can help him to open the portal. So, you can come here any time.”

The fox princess took the feather. “Thank you.”

“Remember what you should do.”

Although the Princess fox was often in the human realm, she shouldn’t  abandoned her clans. She must protect them and put their souls first.

“I know.” She opened the door. Right in front of her, someone was trying to open the portal. Opening a portal to the Immortal was not easy for half-immortal. He had to force himself to give off his immortal soul that was sealed. It was same as for sacrificing half soul.

The Fox Princess went straight to the world, so did Yulan and nun. But, Jino followed them.

Marchio immediately held Jino's tail. “You stay here.”

Jino became gloomy. Then, Marchio closed the portal.
