YM778.TV Chapter 27 - Mercy's Lotus 1
She is studying books there. I walked towards her. She raised her head to see me coming.
"Zack, Come sit here let\'s talk. How was the day? How was your first day at Hansen Training Centre?" asked, Granny Park?
" It is a great day Granny park. The Facilities they got there is world-class. And New Mentor for us also seemed powerful. At the first meeting, she completely oppressed us with aura". I replied. Then I\'m told her
"She taught us basic sword stances. I thought it is easy to perform yet you need to maintain perfect body strength to execute the move on time". As Zack started explaining about stances to Granny park. "Looks like you are not disappointed with your sword courses". soon a voice reverberated at the garden. Zack got surprised. He and Granny park both shifted their gazes to see where the voice is coming from.
Mr James Lockwood came lazily. He had worn an ARMY suit. His face got a new scar. looks like he got it from his mission. Typical short black hair and black eyes. He is still recognisable. Zack thought in his heart. "Brat James, you looked like you hit an iron plate this time around your mission".Asked Granny park. She was surprised to see James scar.
Hearing about the mission Mr James smiled awkwardly. "Yeah, it\'s a difficult one". responded Mr James. To change the topic, he asked about a Hansen Training centre. "Zack, Did you see my friend Arthur?" asked Mr James.
Zack was surprised to know about Arthur Emerson first from the receptionist. Looks they were good friends Zack said to in his heart and replied. " No, Uncle James except Mentor. I have never seen other teaching staff".
Hearing that Mr James was not surprised. He said He is not teaching staff but he is more into administration and business. So it makes sense you won\'t see him around the training corner. Next, Zack told about Mentor and his classmates. Listening to What Zack said Surprise glint appeared in Granny and Mr James eyes.
"You felt an elemental aura around her. which means she is already a Trainee Apprentice warrior like you. But looking at her last name Frazier. This name is felt familiar yet I cannot remember it; She must be an heir to some rich family. To be on the safe side you need to avoid contact with her as much as possible. It\'s also easy for her to find out about you as a Trainee Apprentice warrior". Explained Uncle James.
"Do not worry Zack, I had an old pendant in my room, which is an artifact to hide the early apprentice realm of the warrior".Granny park said finally. Zack got ease of expression after that. After some conversation, Zack left for his room.
Seeing Zack going back to his room. Granny tilted her head and said to James. "You said when Zack turn 10 years old you will give him a treasure to enhance his physical condition. but it\'s already half a year gone".
Hearing that Mr James replied. "Why do you think I got a scar on my face? Today is an off day for me. I went to the secluded face to retrieve that thing". Soon disappointed look appear on Mr James face thinking about the condition of that thing.
Granny Park\'s face changed a little bit. but soon turned normal and said " I think it\'s best to give Zack that thing tonight with pendant, he will be safe there is no point in delaying it further". She was already been informed by Mr James about that precious thing.
Zack was in his room after the bath he wore his comfort clothes. He was checking the online network for any news. But He is soon disappointed to find out the news feed only showing news about Torin City and some nearby cities including Red Stone City. He did not know why there is such strict prohibition.
He needs to join the Academy for further access. Zack sighed as he laid on his bed for some well-needed eye shut. He is not sleeping but immersed in his thoughts.
Sometimes later.
As he was lying on his bed. His holowatch notified him. Zack opened his eyes and he clutches his head. He felt a headache and some pain all over his body. No wonder it\'s caused by today\'s sword training. I only got some sleep for an hour. As he checked his inbox. He read the message from Uncle James. Asking me to come to the common training room in the backyard of the apartment.
Zack was confused but still decided to go. Both Mr James and Granny Park waited in the common training room in the backyard.
Granny park created a barrier around the backyard for safety, so that outsiders can\'t find anything. Mr James was holding a metal case. And he was observing the thing inside that metal case.
Soon Zack came to the room. As he entered the room he saw both of them. What Granny is doing here? Zack said to himself. He tilted his head to see Mr James and said, Uncle James and Granny What is happening?
"Zack, Calm down. James got you a present". said Granny. A surprised look appeared on my face. Uncle what it is, I asked as I begin to walk towards him. Uncle James smiled and pointed his finger toward the metal case on the table. Zack doesn\'t know why but still walk towards the case and saw the thing inside the case.
He was gasped at its beauty and appearance. his heart starts to beat faster. I had never seen anything like that in my life. Uncle James, what is that? said, Zack.
Mr James laughed seeing his look and said. "it\'s a single petal belong to a flower called
MERCY\'S LOTUS is a powerful high-grade treasure. Now in that case we got only one of its petals. The petal is removed from the lotus a long time ago. That\'s why over the years its power got reduced. Nobody can\'t use it anymore.. it\'s only suitable for the early stage warriors".
