Tfe ape tomboy

Wenli, after a long while opened her eyes and realized that she was in bed.

She felt dizzy and wished she hadn't woken up.

"Miss Wenli, you're awake?" Was the calm voice of her maid that didn't leave her sight after everything was done. The wrecking and distructions of her family.

"What happened?" She found herself asking.

Honestly, that wasn't what she wanted to ask, she already knows what had happened and why she was in this state but she remained quiet realizing it's to late to reshuffle her question.

"You fainted after you met with the immortal demon dragon" Hualia answered after words.

Frankly speaking, her body was still dizzy and weak but she let out a life threatening laughter that almost choked her. She coughed afterwards reaping the fruit of her labour.

"Immortal of what?" She asked after finding an ounce of breathe.

Hualia frowned at her question, suprised that she didn't know about the ruthless prince that would soon ascend to the throne after his Father.

"You really don't know him?" She asked.

"If I did, would I have asked you ?" She retorted.

"The most powerful of all. He's the only one that reached immorality at the age of eighteen. His powers are beyond major or whatever you could think about" she defined trying to give her reasons why she shouldn't underestimate the immortal.

Frankly speaking, she was scared to whatever that surpasses death, but the name was very funny. Those that sent her here must be joking when they told her to survive or die miserably.

"I won't be free okay, what we should aim at is getting to that damned school and get the whole cultivation thingy over with" she said, regaining her strength.

It was then that she realized that the place they where, were neither safe nor modest for girls like them to stay.

"Where's this place?" She finally asked.

"While trying to hide from the immortal of the dragon prince, I turled to find this place"

"For how long?"

"Half a day"

"What??" That's too long to be raped and used by filthy men.

Feeling her sash, she felt the thick invitation letter.

"Ah" the cultivation academy.

"Thank goodness you still have that" she saw as Hualia heaved a sigh of relief.

"Looks like you know this academy too well?"

"I only know that we'll get there before dusk"

She helped Wenli stand in her feet.

"Which means of transportation?" She asked surprised by her confidence.

"By foot"

And just like that, the trekked their way to the gates of WangShou academy.

"Your invitation?" The guards ordered.

Hualia reached up and handed the letter to him.

After looking at it for a while, the guard knocked for those words inside to open the gates.

He didn't particularly handed them back the letter, but gave it to the lady only the guards knows what her duty was.

After looking at it for a second, the lady's lips curled up.

"Follow me"the gently said.

Both Hualia and Wenli was intrigued by that but they followed suit.

They walked through the long corridor that seemed endless but finally came into a halt when they stood in Front of a big door.. no, more like a gate.

Wenli was sure that if that was a human, it would look at them like a worthless ants. Like in the biblical story of Goliath and David.

They heard her knock once, and the door was swiftly yet gently opened as though they were waiting for their arrival.

The lady turned to them smiling "come on in" she urshered.

They both followed like they were some sort of robots.

Inside the magnificent hall, were golden yellow and red, crimson red to be exact.

At the Wall's middle was the logo which looked more like a monkey than an ape. Wenli wasn't bothered. Compared to this, the world she came was or perhaps competing with the hall.

"Master, the daughter of Zhu Zi Mei and Yu Jiang Wu is here to answer to the invitation" the lady said bowing to the magnificent yet, empty throne.

Zhu Wenli really need to control herself or she might be sent out on her first day, which wasn't what she wanted. Survive at all cost, and go back.

Suddenly, a white fog gathered around the throne as if trying to steal it away. And within a blister of seconds, the seat was accumulated by a living being. At first, it came out as an ape, then, a man woman figure.

To further say, a tomboy. Dressing of a man, and physique of a woman, a man's type of ancient hair style, and...

Both were equally confused as to the exact gender of the person sitting on the throne, until they heard the voice, confirming the gender of a woman.

"They only have one child, who is this?" She asked her voice powerful enough to kill an asthmatic patient.

Wenli was both quick in action and words, she bowed to her, dragging her maid down to do the same, which she complied as well..

"Your..."she paused as to what to call her, ape master or a tomboy or.. just Master? "My Master, I bring forward me, the daughter of Zhu Zi Mei and Yu Jiang Wu, Zhu Wenli and my maid, Hualia "she said, head lowered to the ground.

"Thought only the children are allowed? How dare you bring a mare maiden to this place?" She asked not shouting but words as harsh as anything.

Wenli 's eyes searched for something. She's a psychologist after all.

"She's not just a maid but my sister as well, our house has been raided and my parents, her masters are all dead and forgotten after the immortal of the demon dragon..". She pursed her lips to take a huge bite to prevent herself from laughing on the spot. "Prince, massacred them only I and my maid are left to wander the world. Please, have mercy and allow we homeless children in your academy " she pleaded finally taking in a breath.

The lady hadn't been listening. To her, it's all nonsense but she wasn't too cruel and wicked to kick one and allow one.

"You'll bare the burden of sharing rooms with each other. Our room are big enough to accommodate two people."

What burden is it? To share room? Even in London, she has the habit of crawling to her nanny's bed late at night because she was scared. When she was back, her younger brother shared the room with her though it didn't last long, but she has the habit of sharing rooms, else she will never sleep.

"Disappear" she ordered and did the same.

"Let me show you to your room" the lady smiled at them.

The room was vast in space not compacted nor was it less ventilated. There would still be comfortability if three people joined them. This was enough for Wenli to have sleepless nights all alone.

The wardrobe packed with clothes as if they were expecting a whole lots of people.

Everything was in abundance that it made Hualia uncomfortable.

Wenli noticed there were five clothes that looks the same but with different colors. She knew that This was some kind of uniform.

Excited, she touched them to feel the fabric. Her style of clothes. Majority were light with less long sleeves or baggy sleeves. The sleeves were tight fitted to her exact style, unlike the heavy dress she and her maid wore. Though torn apart, she still felt te heavy clothes and couldn't wait to wag them off her body.

Turning to Hualia, but was stunned to see her kneeling with her head lowered. She squatted to meet her level.

"What's wrong?"

"I can really go back"

"What? Why?"

"This should be something you alone should enjoy sharing your clothes, shoes and even the same bed is improper as a maid"

Wenli couldn't help but facepalm her forehead. "Look, immediately we survived that night and found only you by my side, when others died or escaped leaving us behind, you've become my younger sister, and what I said to our tomboy master is as it was in my heart, don't think too much okay?"

"But..."

"I'll be really mad and so pissed off if you refer to me as miss Wenli. Just call me jie-li okay?"

"That..."

"Okay???" She repeated now more domineering. Hualia nodded smiling as if her bullies has come to amend for the things they had done.

"These matching clothes,, you shouldn't go near it. I think our tomboy master will pissed dead if you wear it "

"Why?"she asked not quite curious.

"I think it the disciples uniform for different purposes I suppose " she replied, closing the wardrobe door after selecting some clothes. Handed one to Hualia then, with the other, went to grab the wooden bucket in search of water for bathing. Suprised as she saw each door has a tap running with clean water.
