The people around the seventh prince breathe a sigh of relief when they saw the cute evil spirit that he summoned. They also thought it as cute as they could not see the real appearance of the actual evil spirit that he summoned. The only ones that could see the true appearance of the evil spirit are actually Adrian, Levin Cloud, Princess Shini, and Princess Yinyue.
Adrian looked at the two princesses that could see the real appearance of the evil spirit and held out his finger on his mouth like someone saying to keep silent. The two princesses did not even speak as they knew that they would not be believed easily even if they explain that the image of the evil spirit is actually very sinister.
"Very cool, Prince Reishi. I believe that you know that Uncle Kui does not want you to use the abilities that you awakened for bad, right? Always make sure that you use it for your protection first and helping others as second priority." Adrian stated with a smile.
"Of course! I like you very much! I will call you Big Bro Equinox from now on!" Prince Reishi stated as he wanted to thank Adrian for giving him the gift that the God Zhong Kui entrusted the former with.
Adrian just lightly laughed at the statement as it is a huge deal, and he did not know how to react. The others also just slightly laugh as they were also put in a big awkward position. It did lighten up the mood and the previous fainting of the vassal of the first prince has been slightly forgotten.
"I think that having my son awaken his talent is a good thing. This makes me want to increase your reward even more because this is a great feat. I do want to know who is the god that gifted my son the wonderful item. I want to at least dedicate a festival to this god as a token of my family's appreciation." The Celestial Emperor stated.
All the people that heard the statement of the Celestial Emperor are shocked because he should know that there are implications of doing so. It might not be taboo but the Imperial Family has never given a special day to any gods except for the four divine beasts. They thought that this is the rule and that they should never give worship to any other gods in exchange for the given the protection of the four divine beasts.
"Why are all of you surprised? The Imperial Family is not a family that does not show ingratitude. It is not banned by the four divine beasts to show support or small thanks to other gods. As long as the gods that we give thanks to does not have the same domain as the four divine beasts then we can do as we please." The Celestial Emperor stated.
The people then realized that the Celestial Emperor never banned the citizens to show worship for any other gods. The people of the Imperial City did not show any other form of worship because they assumed that only the four divine beasts can be venerated. This is quite the news to everyone that was there, but this rule has always been there.
"The god that gave Prince Reishi his gift is called Zhong Kui. He does not have the same domains as the four divine beasts as he is called the Vanquisher of Ghosts and Evil Spirits. He is considered as a god that protects people from any bad spiritual influence.
If I am not mistaken, then the Taoist sects of the eastern continent should know about him more. If you want more information about the God Zhong Kui then you can ask them about him." Adrian stated as that is all he knows of the God Zhong Kui as he does not have in depth knowledge of all the gods of death.
"Thank you. I will make sure that my ministers get more information. We must celebrate this day as a day to give thanks to the God Zhong Kui. Anyways, we have taken quite the segue way as I have called all of you here for your rewards. Please state what you want to be rewarded for saving the lives of my daughters." The Celestial Emperor stated.
"Actually, can all our rewards be pooled into just one big reward?" Levin Cloud asked first.
"We can definitely do that Envoy Levin Cloud but do you not want individual rewards?" The Celestial Emperor asked.
"We actually only came here for one thing your majesty. We came here in search for an item called a Sun Stone. It is a special stone that accumulates the energy of the sun." Peridot added.
"A Sun Stone? I believe that I am not familiar with such an item. Do we have such an item in our treasury?" The Celestial Emperor asked the treasury minister.
"I believe that we have no item called the Sun Stone in our treasury, your majesty. We do not have a stone that accumulates the energy of the sun that they are describing." The treasury minister replied.
"You have heard him. Unfortunately, we do not have the Sun Stone that you describe. We can give you a different reward if you want." The Celestial Emperor stated.
"Actually, you do have an item that can accumulate the energy of the sun, right?" Adrian suddenly interjected.
"Unfortunately, we do not have such an item." The treasury minister insisted before the Celestial Emperor could say anything.
"I believe you do. You have an item called the Yata no Kagami which is a mirror that was carved from a special stone." Adrian muttered which made all the ministers and the imperial family raise their brows.
"May I know where the esteemed Champion Equinox heard such a thing?" The treasury minister asked.
"Where I heard it is not important but if the Yata no Kagami does accumulate the energy of the sun, then that is what we are looking for." Adrian stated.
"We cannot give you such a precious item that is a symbol of our family." The first prince stated as he knows the importance of that mirror.
"Can we have a look at the Yata no Kagami to see if that is what we are searching for? I am not mincing my words when I say that the fate of the world is at stake. I believe that all of you are informed at what is happening in the western continent." Adrian stated.
"What does the problem of the western continent have to do with us?" The first prince interjected which he was later scolded by the Celestial Emperor for his tone.
"I apologize for the behavior of my son, but he only became like that due to his passionate spirit of keeping the items of our family in our possession. The Yata no Kagami is indeed something that was passed down by our ancestors." The Celestial Emperor stated.
"I think all of you do not know the severity of the situation because you are not yet affected. The thing that is rampaging in the western continent is a god and let me tell you that it is not contented with just that continent. Also, is a piece of old relic more important than the lives of your two children?
From what I have gathered, the Yata no Kagami is just being used as a ceremonial item. You are not even using it to its fullest potential because no one even knows how to. It is better to give us the item as it is needed to save the world." Adrian stated in a firm tone.
"Why do we the people of the eastern continent need to sacrifice something for the people of the west? They have created that problem then they should be able to solve it on their own. We are protected by the four divine beasts. We do not fear other gods." The first prince stated, and the other ministers nodded in response.
"You act as if the four divine beasts even cooperate with each other when they also operate in their own interests. Unlike what your close-minded brain tells you, the threat is real, and it is world ending. Do you think that I, a Daemos, will move if the threat to this world is not real?
Our race does not care if the human species goes extinct as long as the world and other races still live. We, Daemos, have been fixing the world ever since the world has been reborn to what it is now. If you do not want to give it then..." Adrian stated as he was suddenly interrupted by a powerful sound of something crashing.
"The front gate! It is being attacked." Princess Shini stated as she suddenly clutched her chest and spat our blood.
"Check on what is happening at the front gate immediately!" The Celestial Emperor commanded but the roar of a dreadful monster filled the air.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
