Picking up Girls With My System

Chapter 120 Ahanu isn't Happy

“So this happened.”

Arthur and Nosh told Tyee everything that happened down there in the ruins. Obviously, Arthur did not talk about the dead dragons, the giants or the old man he met there. These were things he wanted to keep a secret.

That Arthur knew his father made Tyee a little more relaxed.

“Akhur. Are you truly a celestial?” Tyee said.

They were worshiping those totems since thousands of years ago, but the divine beings from these totems had vanished a long time ago, and maybe it was time for a new era.

He wanted to go with his father, Mohe, to search for Akhur, but he was the leader of the tribe, and couldn’t leave it there without no one to command.

“Yes, I’m. Not only your father, but I have more devotees, and they already built my totem. And, in a few days, I’ll grant all of my devotees a blessing.”

“What?”.

Tyee got up from his chair, with his body trembling. He heard stories about the blessings from the beings of the totem, but these were all legends. Tyee never thought he would live to see that day, and there was no way he would miss such a blessing.

There was a legend from a long time ago that said one warrior got one of these blessings from the totem, and reached a new realm of power, uniting all the desert, and building the first city within.

The man was considered a myth, and some said he ascended to a new realm of power, but that was unknown.

“Akhur, could you please stay here for a time? I’ll gather everyone and convince them you’re real. I have faith in you.”

“No problem, Tyee.”

Both son and father left the house to go talk with the rest of the tribe, and Arthur stood there, thinking.

He got more devotees, and if the entire tribe followed their leader, then he would have lots of them. And having more devotees equals to more power.

“Who was that person down there?” Arthur thought.

That old man teleported him with a wave, and also give him a mysterious magical pouch. Who exactly was that person? He also said something about Arthur not being ready yet.

“I don’t think I’ll be strong enough to face that old man so soon.”

Arthur did not know who that was, but he sensed the power coming from that old man. It was extraordinary.

Anyway, as he had nothing to do, Arthur just stood there inside the leader’s home and waited for them to return, and they did.

Nosh had a smile, and he said, “we will see grandfather again!”

From that sentence, Arthur knew the tribe had agreed to come with him.

“Akhur, I’ll gather a few of my most powerful warriors and we will go to your tribe. Then, after a totem is produced, we will return here and worship you from here.”

“No problem.”

It was better that way, as it was impossible for everyone to gather and live in the same tribe. There was no space for everyone there. Now, if each tribe Arthur conquered worshiped him from their own tribe, then everything would be good.

After all of that was settled, Arthur went to the bedroom that Tyee gave him to stay the night, and something was off.

The celestial body had a few powers he still did not know, and Arthur noticed he did not feel tired of sleeping. Somehow, he could sleep only if he wanted to, and if not, then he could be awake.

So, Arthur took advantage of that new discovery to practice magic all night, and also read a few books he still had with him.

Speaking of books, it would be hard to find books that contained spells, like the ones they had in Odemore. The desert focused more on the tattoo magic, and the tribes did not have books.

“Maybe I can find something in the city?” Arthur thought.

Wisa had already told him about a city that ruled the desert. A place where people were more civilized than the tribes. Arthur wanted to go there, but first he wished to gather as most devotees as possible.

Early in the morning, Tyee, Nosh and a few other warriors prepared to leave the tribe with Arthur. They added to 30 people in total.

It was not a long journey to reach the Jinzaka tribe, but as their leader was leaving the tribe, they gathered the best warriors to protect him. Not that he needed any protection with Arthur there.

He had spent the entire night studying a few enhancing spells, and used those in Nosh, who were the weakest there, so he was the most tired.

The spell increased one’s attributes by a flat amount of 15. Not that much for Arthur, but for those who were weak, it was a drastic change.

“Akhur, this is incredible. My body doesn’t seem tired anymore, thank you.”

Not only that, but he learned a spell that created water. Arthur felt it was an important spell to learn when venturing in the desert. All the warriors weren’t completely comfortable with Arthur around, but as he helped them during the trip, they became more used to him.

Some even saw that chance to get a few favors from the celestial.

“Akhur, you know I always believed you were true and not only a myth. For me, you’ll save all of us.”

Arthur gazed at that warrior, smiled, and patted him on the back. The warrior was happy with his action, and hoped that in the future Arthur would remember his kind words.

They walked through the desert until the Jinzaka tribe was finally in their sight. A few beasts had attacked them on their way there, but Arthur killed them with ease, and all the people there had their faith increased after each fight.

“Who are you?” Ahanu said.

“My devotees, Ahanu. Open the gate. They will only stay for a few days.”

Ahanu’s face was not a happy one. He whispered to his son, who was beside him.

“You were right, son. We must act.”
