When they returned to the city, the sheep were given the same treatment every other animal received, food and water first.?As usual there was a lot of excitement and chatter about the things which the governors had found. The live stock department had to send away idlers that were trying to sneak in and take a peak at the sheep.

Some people like the seventh prince could not be turned away, who would dare to stop a prince? The workers stood to the side and watched him take pictures of the sheep before he departed.

The pictures he took were sent to the emperor who had also received a package containing ten cola fruits. Along with the fruits was a video explaining how to poke a hole and drink the liquid inside. King Wu was not a fussy man and despite the maids bringing him a glass, he drunk the cola directly from the fruit.

"It's,_" he licked his lips, "Interesting." he added. "Sweet like the juice but not too sweet."

Because the growth of fruits from seeds passed down by the ancestors was a thing of greatness, a few ministers had been invited to look at the fruit and taste the cola.?However, only the emperor had done any tasting so far and they watched him drink a second fruit while swallowing saliva.

"According to the professors it tastes refreshing when it's cold." his secretary reminded him. "Perhaps we should put the rest of the fruits in cold storage."

"Yes, great idea." the emperor nodded in agreement.

Helplessly, the few ministers watched the fruits being carted away with greedy eyes.

"As you can see," the emperor addressed them, "Professors Oak and Bell of the Agricultural bureau have made some progress on the blue star in successfully growing some fruit trees from some of the seeds provided to them.?There are six of you ministers in this room, four amongst you have written petitions and spear headed campaigns to cut down the funding of that bureau. What do you think now?" He leaned forward and looked at his ministers.

"It's amazing your majesty, extremely astonishing." one minister said.

"I suggest that the fruits be harvested and brought here to the capital for further studies your majesty. We should form a new team to see how we can grow the yield better." another said.

The emperor scowled, he found it unappealing that the two who were most vocal in calling the agricultural bureau a black hole of funding were the first to speak.

"The professors experimented here in the capital for years without results and now that they are making progress you want them to hand over the results of their research to someone else? Minister Shawn, your words displease me. You can all leave, I simply wanted to make you aware of the progress and let you know that I will be increasing their funding."

The ministers bowed and walked out stiffy, minister Shawn especially wore a rigid look on his face. fr eeweb novel

At night, Scarlet visited the underworld to deliver her souls and she found Ezrah who she had not seen in a really long time. Her friend had changed her appearance by dyeing her hair pink.

"Goodness me," Scarlet was amazed and her eyes showed it. "What did you do to your hair?"

"I tried a new look, my boyfriend thinks it's cute." she stuck her tongue out and moved her head from side to side. "What do you think?"

"I think it's_ unique." Scarlet touched her hair. "You are lucky that you are cute but please don't get any sort of piercings. Where have you been by the way? I have not seen you on a soul delivery in so long."

Ezrah punched her on the arm and smiled, "Oh, I have been around, did you think I missed your delivery of a pure strong soul? I watched it on the forum. I have been delivering my souls twice a week because I am concentrating on my cultivation.?Ever since you caught up with me I have been feeling a bit inadequate." she replied honestly.

"Please don't, I have purifying water, a hell hound, soul nourishing grass and millions of soul crystals. I will share some grass and water with you, you are my only friend in this world after all and you offered me help when I started out. "

"Really?" Ezrah's eyes widened.

"Mmm" Scarlet nodded. "But I should first deliver my souls." She was next in line and she released the one hundred seven souls from her soul gourd.

Ezrah was not the only one to stare, many other reapers did too. It was not common to see a reaper delivering hundreds of souls at once, except for the high level reapers occasionally.

"Wow, my friend no one can compete with you. Did a couple of buses crash on your world?"

"No." Scarlet shook her head.

"A big fire?"

"No," soul eaters, the collector types. "I found five of them." She released those ones too.

The bells went off, signifying the delivery of soul eaters and other reapers made way. She knew that this would cause a fuss, many would talk and her name would be trending on the forum again tomorrow.

"Ah, reaper Scarlet, it's good to see you." the soul registrar she approached spoke to her calmly with a smile.

"Thank you, it's good to see you too." she smiled back.

"Is Severus the thirty first with you?" he asked.

"No, we had a long day and he stayed back to rest, if you give me your name I will tell him that you asked about him."

The soul registrar nodded, "Tell him Old McGee asked after him and that I have a soul attracting stone. He should meet me for a trade, he knows what I want."

"I will." she replied.

The soul eaters were taken away first, the rest of the souls were counted and she received her crystals.?She gave Ezrah the things she had promised her to aid her cultivation.

"Are you leaving now?" Ezrah asked her.

"Yes, I have a fight tomorrow in my world, I need to focus. If you want to talk send me a message on the forum."

"You are on the leaderboard fights, you also fight in your world, when do you rest?"

"I would say that I will rest when I die but I died and I am not resting." Scarlet responded and shrugged. Both she and Ezrah laughed at the irony of her statement.

"I you need anything contact me, okay, bye bye. Thank you for the cultivation aids." Ezrah waved at her. Scarlet waved back with a smile, disappeared and she opened her eyes in the real world, Esong was sleeping with one of his arms on her waist just as he had been doing when she went on soul delivery. She smiled and inched herself closer to him and closed her eyes, going to sleep.
