BXBX NOVEL Chapter 248 A Letter For Orun
"Orun!".
After erecting the sand pillars that reached to the roof, Orun was about to move on to the next stage that involves building cabin like apartment for the Trolls to stay in.
He unfortunately could not continue after his concentration was broken by Wildria who barged in from above, by punching through the sand above and forcefully making her way below.
She cracked through the roof that Orun had taken his time making, and landed with her feet on the ground.
"i knew I sensed your presence in here".
From where she was inside the desert forest, Wildria was able to sense Orun\'s presence the moment he teleported himself underneath the desert.
She hurried herself out of the forest and made her way into the desert sand to look for him.
Wildria turned her body around to view the scene that Orun was on the verge of creating.
Orun sealed up the side of the roof that Wildria had just barged in from by reconstructing the sand around it to patch it up.
"what are you doing looking for me when you could have just waited for me to come".
Orun did not understand for what reason Wildria acted so unlike herself. The speed she used to rush herself over, and the way she bashed through the desert was......too aggressive for Orun to write it off as her acting normal.
There was absolutely nothing stopping her from waiting for Orun in the forest for him to come back after he is done fixing up the Trolls underground cave.
"i came looking for you because you have a message from an anonymous person".
Wildira was not able to take in the view for a long time ass Orun\'s voice reminded her of why she was looking for him to begin with.
She was not even given the chance to ask Orun why he built an underground cave and why he has stoned like creatures sleeping in it.
Wildria also wanted to know who Theron is. His current appearance is much different from how the Trolls sleeping on the floor looks like, and that had her confused on why a single different specie was mixed in, and also why he isn\'t asleep.
She was putting on a well fitted red robe made from Orun\'s aura, with her shoulders exposed and the rest of her body enclosed.
Wildria moved herself closer to Orun and stretched out her hand that was holding into a scroll tied with an emerald colored knot in the middle.
He collected the scroll from her with an expression that was asking from who the scroll came from.
Orun does not remember having any long distance relationship with anybody, much less with someone who would know of his movements and where he was at without being told.
He wondered if the message was not really for him but from another, perhaps someone with the same name as his.
It could not have been from the Emissary because Orun could have sworn that the Emissary did not strike him as someone who would deliver a not to a monster, much less to one who came into his home uninvited.
"i haven\'t opened it yet. This is an enchanted type scroll that can only be opened by the one the content in it is meant for".
Orun with a troubled mind brought the scroll closer to his face and started inspecting the outer part of it.
He is reluctant to open it as he does not know what the contents in it entails or if it is just a trap meant to go off the moment he opens it.
One can never be too careful around a scroll that will only open at the hands of the one it is directed to.
"aren\'t you going to open it".
She was just as curious as Orun is to know what contents the scroll carried and from who sent it to him.
Her curiosity to learn about the scroll\'s content exceeded her ability to think about what dangers the unknown scroll could pose when opened without caution.
"how did you know it was meant for me".
Orun looked at the outer part of the scroll and he saw nowhere on it that indicated that the scroll was intended for him like she had said.
"it was sent over by a parrot who came directly to me and called out your name several times with the scroll on its back".
"i figured it was trying to tell me to get the scroll from its back and when I did that, the parrot flew back into the sky. I tried opening the scroll to see what it\'s content were but I saw that i could not open it, so I stopped trying to and kept it safe until you arrived".
"sigh......"
Orun looked at Wildria feeling a little bit disappointed at how she can just accept a scroll from an unknown parrot without at least making sure that it was safe to.
She even went as far as trying to open it despite not knowing what could be inside.
Orin does not know if her reason for being so careless is due to her evolution getting her stronger and seemingly becoming unstoppable, or if she was just that careless to begin with.
"you are not going to get anything out of it that way unless you open it".
Wildria was getting tired of Orun\'s observation on the scroll by flicking it around in his eyes.
"believe me, I would also like to open it and check who it is from and what it says, but we have to be careful around things like this".
Orun took one last look at the scroll to see if he missed anything on it.
\'Oracle, is there a way for me open it without me being present\'.
Orun is really sceptical about opening a scroll sent for him by an anonymous person who made it so that he is the only one that can open it.
His encounter in this world has not been mostly friendly, so it would not hurt much for him to be careful no matter how strong he has become.
[ yes Master, there is a way to open it without Master being present ].
Oracle\'s confirmation puts Orun\'s heart at ease, as he just like Wildria is also curious about the content of the scroll and especially who it is from.
At least now he is going to find that out without the need to put himself at risk.
