Star Charm

"Excellent deduction young Kazami, indeed, in a few days from now, our sect will open up the twilight mystic realm for all disciples to take part in." Guardian Chui explained, and while Kazami and the girls held no surprise reaction, Luo Ke group was astonished.

"Ah! It honestly slipped my mind that the event is coming up. This will actually be a great opportunity for all of us!" Luo Ke suddenly gained a realization and exclaimed.

And equally excited was Dela, Su Mo, and Mara as well though Kuzumi had abruptly spoken up with,

"So, are you gonna explain this event or?" Despite her forward question Guardian Chui smiled and stated,

"To begin with, you four must understand a mystic realm is an independent space full of treasures and resources created by someone who transcended the mortal way. A cultivator of that caliber naturally broke through the nine lightning shackles of the humane path crossing into the divine border, allowing them to wield immensely powerful abilities. One such ability being able to enormous independent realms as our sects have."

"I see, if I understand right then, hundreds of thousand years probably this divine path cultivator you speak of is your original ancestor of this sect and left down his resources for generations to come." Lun Yuo guessed while thinking about the information she gathers from this planet and on God's plane.

"Correct young Lun Yuo. It's one of the crucial reasons why our sects prosper for so long. However, opening up any mystic realm on this planet requires a massive amount of power and blue jade crystals energy. And even then, the realm can't be open for a great amount of time, furthermore inside as well is incredibly dangerous with perilous trials and monsters use to temper our disciples' strengths. Though every single reward in there is massive for you youths." Guardian Chui replied, but Brenda's eyebrows perked up at this moment.

"Heey, so is this mysteriously powerful divine ancestor still around on this planet? It'll make for an enthralling target and hell are there even more old divine ancestors here?!" Though Guardian Chui didn't get what Brenda mean by 'target,' she still answers her nonetheless,

"Unfortunately no, every cultivator that transcends into the divine path searches for the mythical place named the 'mission center' to cross over into the Realm of Gods, permanently transforming their lives. Although before leaving, Great Ancestor made sure to raise powerful Great Sea Emperors ancestors to run and protect the sect. But the reality is that only a select few times on the history of this planet have there ever been Divine Path cultivators as it's tremendously difficult to even advanced to the Great Emperor Sea realm."

"Tremendously difficult, huh? How many years has it been since someone step foot into the divine path anyways? And for that matter, how long is the longevity of the Great Emperor Sea realm to keep a record of this divine ancestor."

Kazami asked as this could relate to their mission of catching that horned red tiger.

"More than a hundred thousand years since a cultivator broke through the Great Emperor Sea realm. It should tell just how difficult this barrier is to cross, which is why nearly all cultivators focus on reaching the peak of this realm as we can live up to fifty thousand years at our peak. And through alchemists, it's even possible to slightly prolong this life span, most of the top sects in the Western Plain Region have deep, profound history dating back hundreds of thousands of years." Guardian Chui answered, though, while talking, she was taken back a bit with two specific girls.

Her disciples were all diligently listening, taking in this impromptu history lesson. Lun Yuo were also enamored listening to her while Kazami had a contemplating look.

Yet for Kuzumi, her eyes were closed, and a smile plaster on her face, daydreaming about something more fun and hearing Guardian Chui drone her for caused her to tune out the conversation quickly.

While Brenda had unknown to her pulled out a book, diligently reading that instead of listening to her.

'Heh, despite this seemingly quiet time for this planet, looks like soon things will get a lot nosier going by what those Gods told us.' Kazami thought as he rolled his eyes at Kuzumi and Brenda's lack of care to this conversation.

"Now then, if they're no more questions, I'll be taking my leave as I had to push off some important matters to greet you four. Mara will show you around here and the place you sleep and explain more depth about the mystic realm." After a second, Guardian Chui told them.

"Yes, Master!" Mara respectfully answered her getting Guardian Chui to nod and prepare to leave only for Kazami to say,

"One more thing before you leave Guardian Chui, and can this be in a more private location." He walked up and asked with a lovely smile that nearly falters Guardian Chui once again.

"I see no problem with that young Kazami." She quickly said to hide any little stutter and shot up into the sky with him.

"What's up with the sudden privacy from him?" Dela confusedly asked making Brenda immediately jump in saying,

"Isn't it obvious?? My Kaz is going to captivate that Guardian so that we can have a relaxed time here!"

"A-Ah! B-Brother Kazami won't be that bold to master! A-and 'My Kaz'?" Mara heatedly spoke but also was curious about the way Brenda refer to Kazami.

"Hey, yea! That pretty boy would get slap by master if he tried! But are you in a relationship with Kazami?!" Dela asked as Luo Ke, and Su Mo's interest also peaked at this point. As far as these four thoughts, Kazami and his sister were on a team with two good friends.

In response to her question, Brenda flashed right next Lun Yuo who had an amused expression and pointed to her proudly stating,"Yoh! That's right! Yuo and I fell under Kaz irresistible charms and are his high maintenance girlfriends!! And now once Kaz easily woo this Guardian, we'll be free to engage in hot threes-"

"This mouth of yours, dear Brenda...I'm gonna have Kazami punish you for it~. Hahaha just ignore her words; usually, what Zami has to say is essential and beneficial to us all." Lun Yuo hurriedly interrupted Brenda by latching her hands on her mouth and whispering the punishment part only she could hear.

Though she wasn't sure, it had the entire intended effect as her eyes looked a bit fervent.

While Mara, Dela, and Su Mo began to feel an unknown small hope spring up but got quickly squashed down, not wanting to admit it so readily.

Luo Ke, on the other hand, felt more respect for Kazami as he manages to score with two celestial beauties like Brenda and Lun Yuo.

"Right right, but you know instead of focusing on brother, how about we play a little that none of you can refuse?" Kuzumi had suddenly opened her eyes and rhetorically asked Mara group ignoring the antics of Brenda.

"Why even ask if you're just going to force us?!" Dela blurted out but still held an anxious expression as she can tell whatever Kuzumi has planned isn't good for them.

"A great battle has suddenly fallen upon us." Su Mo solemnly said while gravely nodding her head.

"Hahaha! Don't be like that; it's a straightforward game! All you have to is answer every question I ask truthfully. And remember I can sense when you're lying~. If you lie well, you all have to spar with Brenda. After all, we're all studying under the same Guardian, and spars are common among students." Kuzumi playfully said, and yet Mara and the others couldn't help but curse in their minds.

Glancing over to Brenda, who gave them a wild broad, toothy smile, she was akin to watching lioness hungrily gazing at her prey.

"O-oh t-team-building exercises!! This is an excellent idea, sister Kuzumi!" Mara faked enthusiasm and said with a strained smile knowing full well Kuzumi intends to make them squirm.

"Please fairy Kuzumi. I have one request. Can you spare us at least a little bit face with these questions." Luo Ke was humbly pleading, thinking this was the best option.

"Hmmm, well, that depends on how you four answer and act. Now! Who wants to go first?" Kuzumi may have asked, but eyes seemed to expected the lack and silent tense response.

"Oh? No takers? It looks like I'll choose, and it'll be a hard-hitting question!" And instantly, four groans voiced out as they pray for Kazami return.….

"What is it you wanted to ask young Kazami?" Guardian Chui had her bearings of a wise old master patiently advising her gifted students at this time.

Though Kazami only held a relaxed smile telling her,

"So serious? Genuinely, Guardian Chui, it's nothing that private only I wanted your opinion on keeping secrets between two people." Such an odd thing to ask about but she still answer anyways,

"All kinds of secrets exist in this universe, and some secrets get used to protecting others. It's either a valid option or a grave option depending on the context of the situation."

"Hmmm, maybe, but that wasn't what I meant, though? I mean little secret kept between two people for more personal reasons." Kazami said this with a more charming smile as he slowly floated over to Guardian Chui, who was a bit taken aback.

"Oh, whatever do you mean, young Kazami?" She couldn't help but notice Kazami nearing face as he stopped a few meters in between. Once again, this damn boy was nearly making her falter and almost making heart race with this direct and bold approach.

"That what I mean, young Kazami this and that. Just call me Kazami in exchange you tell me your first name so our student and teach relationship can progress a little bit. Plus, it will be our little secret."

"Fufufu, quite bold, are we boy? As your teacher and only meeting on the first day, what makes you think I'll agree?" Guardian Chui let out a laugh in the same tune of an angel grace, but Kazami didn't back down as his eyes gained a dazzling purple color as his pupils turned into little stars.

This abrupt change caused Guardian Chui to stiffen as her eyes slowly widen. Gazing into Kazami purple divine eyes was an enchanting sight as she nearly fell into them.

Kazami knew better than to use his eyes powers on a Great Sea Emperor master but instead used it to create a more significant charm than he held before. Guardian Chui only felt as if the boy magically became a lot more attractive and noticed him slowly reaching out his hand.

"So, what do you say now?" He asked as she slowly grasps his hand feeling pleasurable electric shock run through her body from it.

"Fufufu, such wonderful charms are coming from a young boy. Chui Rou is my full name...AH!!" At first, under Kazami divine gaze, his warm and pleasurable hand, she unintentionally cutely laughed and said her full name.

Though immediately after she snapped back to her senses and slapped his hand away, spouting a mild blush on her cheeks, realizing her chest felt incomparably warm for a second.

"Guardian Rou, a lovely name I might add. Now we've established a little secret between us." Kazami said but, amazingly, for Guardian Chui, she quickly recovered but still glare at Kazami like a disapproving master. Yet this glare was insanely cute by Kazami standard.

"What a naughty little boy I have, looks like some punishment is in order?"

"I await whatever punishment you have for me, Guardian Rou," Kazami said her name with a husky tone that caused her chest to tighten up a bit. And her glare only intensify as she said,

"You are no-"

"Hahahaha! We both know I won't stop saying it when we're alone. Besides, honestly tell me, do you dislike it?" Guardian Chui's mind was a bit in a chaotic state. One because never in her life was a man this daring and bold with her.

And two was because she honestly couldn't say she did dislike him calling her by Guardian Rou! Realizing this fact she quickly turned around saying,

"No words of this to anyone else that's an order! And I'll decide your punishment later, you troublesome boy!"

"Alright then, let's go back now I'm sure my sister is making Mara and them squirm by now. Oh, and thanks for accepting this secret, Guardian Rou." For the second time, Guardian Chui felt slight shivers hearing her name in such manner but didn't respond to Kazami as she took them both down.

She lowly sighed, but her mind still couldn't wrap around on the enigma that was Kazami Star.….

"To think a few questions and I would learn a lot of interesting things about you four. Now for the next question, Mara! Have you ever played with your-"

"Alright that's enough teasing, haven't you had your fill yet?" Before Kuzumi could ask, Kazami appeared right next to her flicking on her cheek.

"Ah~! Fine, I'll stop though it was an entertaining show right Brenda and Yu?"

"Oh, it sure was Kuzumi, we gotta do it again sometimes!" Brenda agreed from the sides while Lun Yuo had a wry smile explaining to Kazami,

"I can't deny it; it truly was entertaining." Kazami had looked over to Mara group and watched them all score red faces as they looked down in shame while on their knees.

"Haaah, I'll be off." Guardian Chui swiftly said and left, not even wanting to know the more trouble this group of four seem to cause.

"Ah, Master!!" They all quickly looked up, but she was already gone leaving them with the Kazami team. Looking at them Kazami sighed saying,

"I don't even want to know what she asked, let's just take our mind off it by you four showing us around here. In specifically, I'm sure there some talisman materials around here we can use."

"Talisman?" They all questionably said, causing Brenda to flash in their faces.

"You heard Kaz time to get up and show us around!" She said in anticipation of creating her first talisman.

And instantly, they all rose to their feet as they knew better than to make Brenda irritated.

"Right this way, brother and sisters!!" Mara took the lead, still with a slightly red face with the other three right behind, wanting to forget about the Kuzumi game as quickly as possible.
