Chapter 4 - CHA-4:THIS IS FUN

The rays of the morning sun passed through the windows of a beautifully designed villa and entered an extremely well furnished room touching the otherworldly face of a young man who's age seemed no higher than 22 instantly making it glow,the young man in question immediately showed a slightly frown before turning to the other side lazily while using one hand to caress the pillow before drawing it even closer to his head smiling contently.

Unfortunately,someone else had other plans for him as all of a sudden a small black box came out of the wall above his bed before letting out an ear splitting sound which was only restricted to his room due to the activation of the sound barrier, instantly making jolting him awake as he immediately vanished from the bed only to appear close to the door before looking around in a half-awake state wondering what happened.

It didn't take long for him to figure it out and when he did oh man was he pissed.A domineering pressure immediately spread out from his body instantly destroying the box and the barrier before causing a slightly tumor in the ground as he let out a roar.

"JUNNIIOORRR!!"

In the capital everyone felt the tumor but not everyone heard the roar only the powerful people did and it shocked them as they could not find the source.

In another part of the capital Garfield sat in a sophisticated office overlooking some documents before looking out the window, chuckling lightly thinking.

'J is dead this time'

********

Far away in City Base C the famous and mysterious Mr J sat in his office recieving some files from principal Ma before it suddenly slipped from his hands as he felt an extreme chill down his spine making him sweat.

"Sir are you okay?"Principal Ma asked looking worried.

"I'm fine,you can leave now"Mr J said coughing slightly.

"Okay sir"

Once the door closed behind the principal Mr J immediately fell off his chair seriously sweating his sixth sense setting off huge alarms.He chuckled while looking worried.

'Maybe I went too far'

*******"

Early in the evening within the central capital city,just some minutes to the start of the banquet.

Jenna wore a long firey red dress which complimented her curves well as she applied finishing touches to her make up before looking at the mirror and nodding in stiff approval.

Her driver knocked on her door three times before coming in at her approval.

"Young mistress it's almost time"He said while looking at her.

"Gustav how do I look?"Jenna asked a bit of uncertainty in her cold voice which Gustav caught due to their time together.

"As lovely as ever my lady.I suddenly feel the urge to ask for a raise just for this night"Gustav said with a smile.

"Thank you Gustav"Jenna said feeling a bit better.

"Time to go."She said as she carried a small hand bag from the table before heading out the door Gustav opened.

Some minutes later they arrived at the imperial palace,then after passing the security check which was very brief they parked at the place directed by another guard who opened the door for Jenna before giving a small bow and then leading them towards the banquet hall.

The entire outer structure of the imperial palace was extremely huge,the size of two stadiums and the banquet hall which was also a ballroom was the size of a football field with high ceilings and stairs leading upstairs.

There where already people within the hall when they arrived and they all looked at them in interest immediately trying to deduce the family.At this point the guard quickly gave another small bow before excusing himself.

Some families who knew who they were came over with smiles to make small talk which although not interested Jenna still indulged them smiling politely.

Some time passed with more people coming over and Jenna indulging them after which she gave a signal to Gustav before heading towards the far corner of the hall with fewer people and finding a place to sit.

"Damn man, remember that tumor we felt earlier?"

"Yeah,it scared the shit outta me man"

Hearing this conversation made between two young guys seemingly her age Jenna's ears perked up.

"The elders of my family said that a roar accompanied it but couldn't find the source" a guy with wavy blond hair continued.

"But there was no roar"the other guy with dark brown hair said in shock.

"Exactly, it's seems like only the powerful people could hear it but still couldn't find the source"

"This sounds really bad"The dark brown haired guy said with worry.

"Actually the royal family say that they will handle the matter and no one should worry."The wavy blond haired guy said.

"Really?,thank goodness "

'interesting...'thought Jenna while listening to the two.

After it seemed like there was no more valuable info from the two Jenna walked out the hall.

Going through a few hallways she came out to see a large space with beautiful flowers surrounding a huge tree with imposing branches.

"The sun and moon fruit tree..."Jenna mummured in a daze.

This tree was one of the legends of the southern zone,said to be a thousand years old and brought over by the first awakened before his disappearance.The tree could bear sun fruits which could awaken and increase one's affinity with fire while the moon fruit could increase one's affinity with water and increase healing capabilities though they lose their effectiveness the higher one's level.

Due to there capabilities it was coverted by many but due to the power behind it very few could obtain it as it was either gotten by merit or sold one every five years in the imperial auction house.

The tree was also furocious while being in a high level, having the ability to attack anyone who approaches it.

That's why it's fruits are collected in intervals during it's hibernation period once every five years with an unknown output of fruits.

But at this moment Jenna was shocked because a youth was laying lazily on one of the branches of the tree and it wasn't retaliating though it wasn't in it's hibernation period rather it was feeding the youth by lowering it's branches which had fruits on it for him to pluck.

Jenna was not the only one to notice this as three other people her age were also present,two guys and one girl.

With the haughty looks on their faces her concluded that they were from important backgrounds.

The one in the lead was a guy with a buzz cut and a slightly above average face which had arrogance written all over it.

He approached the tree leaving the two followers behind before stopping at a respectful distance and looking up at the youth on the tree.

"Excuse me..."He began while puffing his chest and nose in the air.

"...It seems like you're new here because that tree is off limits and so are the fruits"

The youth paused a bit getting up slowly which made the guy below get bolder with his words.

"If you come down right now and hand over those fruits I might consider letting this matter slide"He said with an arrogant smile acting like he was doing the youth a favour which made his followers smile as well and Jenna sigh.

To everyone present the youth must have used some one time rare treasure to secure the fruits.

The youth in question who was now sitting up right was pressing against the branch he was once laying down now seemingly searching for something.

"Damnit,where is that uncomfortable..."he mummured though it was heard by others.

"Ahh...there you are"He said picking a small piece of something before flicking it off onto the head of the guy below.

And to the shock and suprise of everyone present laid back down on the branch and plucking another fruit from the above branch.

"Ahh...this is fun."
