Chapter 749 T.D.O.N.B: Mister Knight



Eventually, people gathered at my house, but this time, they came in regular clothes. I invited everybody whom I asked to come previously, with the addition of Hatta, who this time was present.

We gathered in my underground bar, while Tihana was taking care of the kids upstairs. I didn\'t want them pulled into this since they still felt like outsiders. Although I did feel bad for what happened to them, the matter was too import let the knowledge slip out of our little circle.

As everybody had their drinks, and some people were even stuffing themselves with the food prepared mainly by Celestine, I pulled out the seed of my vault, then presented it on an open hand, so they all could see the wrinkly ball.

- I have eight of them. I believe we should split ourselves into groups to plant them in worlds prepared by the great one, and then lead selected groups of people to build the cities, and grow the trees to consume the fruits at the end. This means we should only pick trustworthy people because there is no room for error. I don\'t know how many we will have to split between us, because I still didn\'t talk about it with The Great One, but the time to say upfront, if you are in or out, has come - I said.

,m - How about we don\'t make this unnecessary long, and just declare? - Hatta suddenly proposed. - If you are willing to go, rise your hand.

Ki\'rai\'s little arm shot up like a launched rocket. Then after a moment both Hailwic and Martin raised their hands. Hatta did so just after, followed by Nil. To my surprise, Marcella and Daniel didn\'t do that at all. Nobuo waited, but as everybody clearly declared what they wanted to do, his hand also got slowly up.

I did that too, just to clear any possible misunderstanding, but I believe it was obvious that I\'m going. Will didn\'t rise his hand.

- If we add Druoag, which I believe will be pushed by The Great One heavily, we should have one left, but we should look at that one as a possibility, because I\'m not sure if he will agree to give us all seven, considering the fact that he is going to give out only one, and we would then gave seven for us  - I pointed out.

- Can\'t you get more? - asked Hatta. - I bet Amit would be up for planting one too.

- Juan is trustworthy also - Daniel added.

- What about Eshe? - asked Nil.

- We should consider Jayadeva too - Will pointed out.

I scratched my cheek as more and more names came up. This made me realize that there have been more trustworthy people around than I actually expected. My circle was very small now since I\'d returned from my banishment organized by Ixa, but they all were living here, bonding, creating their own circles of trustworthy people.

- Ok. I\'m gonna split the seeds with The Great One, and then we should gather once more with all the people we trust, here in my house. We will explain to everybody what is going on, then we will split the seeds we will have among us. Maybe, just maybe, there will be more, but I can\'t promise that. It\'s a tricky situation to obtain them, answering your question, Hatta - I said eventually. - Does everybody agree?

People looked at one another, but there didn\'t seem to be any opposition.

- Ok. Nobody against, so we can go straight to drinking - I then added, causing a few laughs.

A few discussions sprouted among people, but I didn\'t really pay attention to that, since Celestine immediately approached me.

- Let\'s talk - she said.

I nodded in response, then we found ourselves a spot to have a more private conversation. She didn\'t hesitate, she just straight up said what she wanted to say.

- I don\'t want this to come out bad, but I think we should change our wedding plans.

My eyebrows went up, and my heart rate increased drastically.

- What do you mean by that? - I asked.

- We should just do it in a small group of friends. Let\'s give up on the big party because there are more important things to take care of - she elaborated.

I immediately felt much calmer.

- But you made such big plans - I pointed out.

- Yes, but what does that mean in comparison to building a completely new community with people who need help? - she asked. - We could change the lives of so many others who have been screwed by life. Isn\'t that something we should focus on instead? We will have our whole lives together to live. The wedding is just one event.

- I\'m not gonna argue with you, I just thought that was important for you. I want you to be happy. You had enough trouble in your life. It\'s time for the knight in - I looked down at my clothes - a black hoodie, to sweep you off your feet, and change your life forever.

My words made her laugh, then she leaned forward to kiss me.

- You already swept me off my feet mister knight. Let\'s get married, and build our kingdom. I can\'t wait to live in a castle - she then added as a joke.

- We could have a big tower and close Tihana there, like in a proper fairy tale. - I added, fighting with a smile, to make the whole joke look better.

Celestine just laughed.

- I think she wouldn\'t like that, besides you would then have to deal with the knight trying to save her - she pointed out.

- I can beat them all up.

- But she should be saved in the end. Isn\'t that the proper good ending? - She asked me.

- Maybe when she is thirty I\'ll allow that - I argued.

We continued that joke, adding up to it, which eventually turned into a whole story. Meanwhile few people got drunk, but only slightly since even if they were going hard on the drinks, the alcohol had barely any effect. Others, too busy with their own lives, departed.

Overall the evening was great, though.
