Chapter 314 Unknown Related Stranger

Everyone was excited about the festival. There was a free food section where the meat of various animals was served. While these servings were made for beasts, it did feel a bit weird.

Especially those beasts that were herbivores or their own kin that were being presented as food - this hurt them somewhat. However, the majority were hungry carnivores, who, even though cared about their kins and thought this was wrong, ate happily to fill their tummy.

The festival had started and it would last for the next three days.

Colorful lights were lighted everywhere made up of different crystals. It was like a DJ-Disco Bar or a Nightclub of some sort - only Shin could relate to it.

Nevertheless, he and his mates marched forward with pride.

When they made their appearance in the special seats provided especially for them, the crowd went quiet for some time and then started to make noises, as if enjoying the show and cheering for Shin and his squad.

The seat prepared for Shin was different from the rest of the audience. Not only was it in a separate vacant section, but it also had a soft pillow-like blanket.

It was only true for Shin's spot.

Just left to him, Aella sat down and following her, Terran, Raka, Deoras, and the rest of the higher ranked ones.

As for the lower-ranked ones, some stayed out of the stadium near the common area and others were in different rooms, enjoying the festival via the screens.

First, opening dances were performed by some elves. The female elves were quite sexy, enough to make many males have a nosebleed.

Continuing, various acts were being performed - some from old fairytales and some new ones made recently with new scripts.

Overall, the program was somewhat nice.

Shin and the gang watched it for three hours finally after which hunger hit them.

'Ugh, I am hungry.'

'I think the same is with others but they aren't saying anything since I haven't gotten up.', Shin realized.

Seconds later, he got up and whispered about having a meal to Aella who relayed the message to the rest of them.

They left the scene and went to the special huts built specifically for dining purposes.

As Shin and everyone arrived, the beasts that were already there were startled. While they ate like savages a second ago, with Shin's and everyone's arrival, they became a bit more modest and ate properly.

Various meat and drinks were served on plates and leaves. There were some humans eating here too and the same was true with some orcs and other races.

No one was fighting right now as they knew that fighting outside the arena was prohibited by the celestials during the festival and if one did fight, they would be forced to face the wrath of the celestials!

Soon enough, Shin was finished with his food and drinks and walked out. It was the same for others, they strictly followed him. They would eat only after he started and would leave exactly when Shin would leave.

'Ha…'

'I guess I will go back to the rooms and enjoy the festival from there…', Shin thought.

It was noisy. With his presence in the stadium, many beasts were uncomfortable, as if, they couldn't give their best.

Also, he seemed a bit tired. The fatigue was still present so he wanted to rest.

But just when he thought about going back to the rooms, he heard someone call him.

'Master Shin.'

Shin stopped in his tracks and looked here and there, somewhat confused.

The voice was a bit deep and husky, almost similar to that of Deoras but it wasn't Deoras who called him.

He could see Deoras just randomly chatting with Terran and Raka about something, so it couldn't have been him.

'Who...?'

He asked himself, expecting no answer. Well, no one answered.

'Was I dreaming or what? Must be my imagination...', he thought but seconds later, he heard the voice yet again.

'Ma...ster Sh..in, can you h...ere me?'

'Huh?', Shin seemed surprised, however, his troubled self was relieved thanks to the system.

*Ding*

[An unknown but familiar entity is trying to establish a telepathic connection with the host.]

[The system advises the host to use the skill telepathy to converse.]

Shin realized that it was telepathy and without a second consideration, used the skill.

Right after this, the voice became much clearer.

'Master Shin!'

'Yes!?'

*Ding*

[Telepathic connection has been established with the unknown individual.]

'Ah! Master Shin! Finally...'

The voice was wavy and somewhat familiar. Even the system mentioned that the individual was unknown but someone related or familiar to Shin.

Well, Shin immediately asked, 'Who are you?'

And the answer was just one word, which ended up completing another task of his in the mission.

'Kira.'

The moment the name was pronounced by Kira, the system immediately put up the completion of the task.

-> Find Siara and Kira [ completed ]

'K-kira!?', Shin asked in surprise.

Earlier the system had detected his trail but couldn't find him. Now, it seemed as if he revealed himself first.

'Where are you!?', Shin wasted no time in asking this.

'Master Shin, I am near-'

Kira then gave his exact location and after hearing this, Shin immediately asked him to stay there.

He was going to meet him right away.

Kira understood the task and waited.

"Um, guys, you go and rest in the rooms or gi enjoy the festival in the stadium."

"I have some task to do. I will be back.", Shin said, only to hear protests from Terran, Raka, and Deoras.

They didn't want to let him go alone.

The same was true with Aella, who wanted to tag along.

Shin paused and said, "I will accompany only one member since you all insist."

They stopped protesting and waited for Shin to choose someone.

'I'm meeting Kira...'

'If I take Aella then...'

If he took Aella, she could finally reunite with him. He knew not when he could contact Kira the next time as it seemed like he had his own circumstances to deal with.

"Aella, come with me."

'I might as well help her in evolving after we are done talking with Kira...'
