"And you, what's the purpose of your visit?" Lucis asked Kuji after Muzin mentioned about her.
"erm, remember when i ask you to teach me to become cultivator?"
Lucis stunned a bit and recalling if there's such thing happened. Kuji talking too much that Lucis didn't actually pay much attention to it at that time. Without activating his memory record that cultivator usually use for cultivating, remembering something still pretty much the same as normal human and can be easily forgotten especially Kuji word, she's basically speaking nonsense all the time and doesn't worth to use memory record on her words.
"Well, you can also marry me while you at it." Kuji said casually but the room temperature suddenly drop sharply like the winter season during November.
"whoa, chill man. I know I'm pretty popular but there no need to make my biscuits cold right?" Lucis said as he look at Muzin direction. He suspect that Muzin is jealous at him since he's single and alone in his cold dark molded cave. Of course his cave is not actually like that but Lucis already plan to grow some mold medicine in his cave soon which require dark cave.
Muzin and Nanji glance at Suyi as soon as they feel the cold temperature but they quickly avoid her eyes when they saw her deadly glare.
Lucis didn't suspect Suyi at all, after all, freezing the environment is something advance that only someone with foundation can do.
"Anyway, I've been thinking about this for a while now.." Lucis said as he rub his chin.
"Marrying me?" Kuji ask. If glare can kill someone, she'll be dead couple of time now by Suyi already.
"No." Lucis quickly wave his hand. "im talking about how big family nurture their younglings early. I'm thinking about school, I want to make school in the village, cultivating the brats in the village before we recruit them." Lucis look at Muzin.
Muzin stare at Lucis for a moment then he look down scratching his short wild beard.
"Let's call brother Shuzan here, I'm not good with this planning stuff." Muzin said then he take out his voice talisman.
It didn't take long for Shuzan to appeared, he actually just laying around with his magic stone in his cave so he responded immediately when the message arrived.
Shuzan arrived and Lucis explain his plan towards Shuzan. Nanji was surprised that there's actually more cultivator around beside Lucis.
The more Nanji and Kuji stay in the mansion the more surprised they get especially when Shuzan arrived, he's the very image of immortal they have in their imagination.
"You mean like those academy like the one in the capital?" Shuzan said stroking his majestic beard.
"in the capital? They have something like that?" Lucis asked, he thought this idea of would grant him some praise from Muzin and Shuzan.
"yeah, they recruit people at the age as early as 10 years old and start training them for the clan recruitment festival that being held every 2 years."
"So it's something like kindergarten but with older kid.." Lucis rub his chin feeling like his idea is actually really common in this world and he's nowhere as genius as he thought he is.
"kin de ga den?" Muzin asked.
"its nothing. Anyway, what do you guys think?"
"i agree!" Kuji stand up and raise her hand.
". . ." Lucis look at Kuji in silence.
"Anyway, what's you guys think, except Kuji, her opinion is not counted." Lucis glance at Kuji a bit before returning his gaze at Shuzan and the gang.
"my opinion is important! I can teach the kids about tracking and hunting!" Kuji yell unwilling to be ignored.
"your idea is good but did you have someone to teach them? How about the cost? The facility is important too." Shuzan asked.
"this is where our brother Muzin come. I remember he said he have a lot of friend. Pick someone we can trust to join our clan." Lucis smile mischievously at Muzin.
"Clan? Are you in a clan?" Kuji asked. Lucis always been in this village as long as she remembered.
"i have some in my list, but they're pretty weak." Muzin said completely ignoring Kuji. Since Lucis ignore her, he and Shuzan though that she's not someone important after all.
"doesn't matter, we only need them to teach mortal kids anyway."
"i have some people that fit the bill, I'll ask around later but..." Shuzan said than he paused with a serious face. "what are we gonna do about the facility and cost? We need a lot of stuff to establish school that cultivating younger generation for cultivator clan."
"that's easy. Let's go shopping." Lucis said with a big smile.
"what about me?" Kuji frown, she's been ignored since a moment ago and she start feeling like she's an outsider.
"Right, what can you do beside talking a lot?" Lucis look at Kuji with sympathize like she's abandoned dog. Her spiritual root actually really good for cultivating but Lucis himself is too lazy to waste time for her.
"i.. I can.." Kuji want to say about her being a hunter but everyone should know about it already, what can she said to impress them?
Kuji look down and letting out a long sigh.
"i know someone that can take her in but wether she's willing or not that's entirely up to her." Shuzan said while stroking his beard looking at Kuji with sympathy. He never check how good Kuji spiritual root are but with just a rough guess from her appearance, she shouldn't be too old to be taught about cultivation since she look only about 14 or 15.
The truth is, only Lucis can see and gauge someone else capabilities with his unique energy and devine sense. Usually, one need to touch and pour their energy into someone else before they can see the person condition.
"ill work hard!" Kuji stand up and clench her fist with determination.
"and we can marry after." Kuji added looking at Lucis. Suyi just shake her head feeling that she'll have more headache coming soon.
"Sure, you'll just be mistress ha ha ha ha." Lucis laugh sarcastically.
"okay." Kuji nod without even though about it much then the whole room feel silent with everyone looking at each other awkwardly. Mistress is lower than concubine, it's like secret lover that can't join the main family.
"ah... Young people." Shuzan said stroking his beard with envy expression.
"Anyway, where can we get the stuff we need? We should also buy all the building material we need for our headquarters." Lucis look at Muzin his personal living Wikipedia and ignoring Kuji since she's the living nonsense.
"about that... I know just the right place if we're in the western region.. I'm not actually familiar with the place around here." Muzin smile wryly.
"let's go to the FallenCarp city in the East, it's basically a cultivator city where everything a cultivator need available there." Shuzan said almost bragging. Only he have a vast knowledge among the three of them.
"ah, I remember that city. If you can't find what you need, go to the Fallen Carp city, that's what I usually heard from other people." Muzin nod with agreement.
"our destination is set then. In the mean time, you will learn from Shuzan." Lucia look at Nanji.
"yes, I'll show you the wonder of spell." Shuzan said with a big smile. With disciple, he's now officially an Elder which what he wants all this time, being the majestic senior.
"i greet master!" Nanji shout as he kneel in front of Shuzan and start crying. His long distance dream finally start appear in front of him.
"ha ha ha ha good, good, good." Shuzan said as his hand getting faster stroking his beard. Lucis really want to pull out his beard at this moment annoyed with Shuzan appearance.
