Chapter 130: Street story telling and unexpected meeting with foster parent
Life will not be colourful, as you wish it to be. The people in your life will go through different and difficult times which make them do things, which make them behave in a certain. Everyone have their own reasons. But what helps you build a strong relationship is when you understand them and gone with their flow, give them time and also grow your love for them, giving them strength, without showing the ego conflicts.
Huo carried on with his work at the Demon's castle. He did not go in search. He did not gr angry. He did not wish to interrupt anyone's way of work. He just accepted the reality and carried on with his life, waiting for the right moment to interfere.
He and Aqua went through a lot that only taught them variety of lesson, that taught them to grow up, grow strong, and face the world even if it stands against you. Huo and Aqua developed the elite level of relationship in the recent times. And Huo now had highest level of trust and faith in his woman.
Huo remained in the castle, managing the demons. He met up with all the seven demon class settled in Hell. Each of the houses were in conflict with each other, but obeyed the king boldly and blindly. Huo held a summit in the Castle inviting all the seven clans together and arranged a one night camp in desert to let them interact and cooperate conducting variety programs for them. He wanted to see who are the trouble makers and who actually are ready to cooperate.
The eagles, the vultures, the three buffalo clans, the ravens and the peacocks. These are clans that sum up hell but there are also small demon sects that has different forms apart from these majority shape shifters. The eagles and peacocks have the highest ranks and the two clans that has ruled over hell. But the hell lies in the hand of eagle descendants. Except Huo, who is a dragon, and too rare for a Demon to be born with exceptional
Skills, which made demons think that he can never be defeated again.
He noticed how the peacocks held back from everything, especially the Princess Ahana. She simply did not like anybody else. And did not cooperate with anyone. And when she did she put on a drama. On the friendly hunting match, when the leaders were aksed to collect maximum of the preys, Princess Ahana tried to stick herself towards the Demon King. Pretending to have hurt herself and falling off the horse, Princess Ahana asked King Huo who was close by take her back to the castle. Seeing through her lies and act, Demon King ordered the guards to carry her back to the Castle. "No, no your highness, please, your higness," she called out for him. But he smiled and walked away. 'Little girls are too much these day, learn from my Aqua, how she acted when she liked me, thinking about that, god my woman pushed me away when she fell in love," he talked inside his head and smiled widely. He couldn't help but recall their night together at the tree hut on the river banks, the day he confessed, the day they got together, got to know even better. He had goosebumps. 'Wait till I get hold of you one day,' he said and walked back to the game ground. The fires were lit to keep the ways bright to the dessert. He found how the buffalo clans were always together and how eagles and vultures and great cooperation. He decided to formulate the plans and policies for the Kingdom accordingly and ended the summit the next day. Princess Ahana was such a nuisance and kept making troubles to the point that she even dared to walk into the bed chamber of the King. But he had her removed before he went into his chamber and asked the guards to take her back home even before the summit ended.
He waited everyday, counting the time, spending time alone, wondering what Aqua would be doing. He would complete reading the petitions and meet with the people who needed help and solve their problems. He often went to the town and walked down the street watching the people himself and watch a play before he returns back to the castle. It became a habit, to pass his time. Some days he would interrupt the stories saying how wrong they are. Just like he did in the old days.

"No, it's wrong," he said one day. He was in disguise hence nobody recognised him. He was wearing a civilian's black Demon robe and a hat, the black boots, with his hair tied up. He was not carrying any weapons with him. "The King never loved the Queen Regent," he said back.
"Who are you?" The story teller got angry and asked him.
"The guard from the palace, I have seen what happened there," the crowd murmured loudly and asked him to narrate the story. "Pay him and I will," Huo said. And the story teller agreed to it.
"You better say the truth," story teller warned him.
"Better that you Mister," he said and began the story. "Princess Aqua died by saving the Demon King, giving away her powers to him. But he reincarnated only a couple of years later. Using all the powers. His and hers," people looked drawn towards him, listening every single word carefully. "He was helped by the Queen Regent greatly, taking caring secretly, keeping the news to herself and her mother Fiona," he recalled the lady suddenly. "He was given treatments, he had no memory of the past, and Demon King had tough time and trust issues," Huo went on. "King had no choice but trust the Queen Regent, but she utilised the chance and fed him with love elixirs forcing him to get close to her," he said. The crowd made various noises as they heard the story. He stood there smiling and looking at curious faces of his fellow demons. "But King always kept his limits, then years later, King came to know about the truth, he reconciled with his beloved, but it took some time for the princess to forgive him, and then he declared his love for her again, he said she is the only one he will ever be able to love," he added extra in the end, cut shorting the story.
"But this is incomplete," a lady shouted. "We know Water Princess is back, how did they two meet again?" And the crowd agreed with her.
"I don't know that," he lied and left the platform. The story teller called him suddenly. "Insider stories are interesting, if you get more, share with me, I will give you quarter of my profits, okay?" He asked Huo unaware that he is making the deal with the King.
"Deal," Huo agreed and left happily.
"You enjoy spreading rumours yourself don't you?" General Hawk asked him.
"They are gossiping for entertainment and for earning, if so, let them know the truth and lie about things that did not happen," Huo shrugged and said to General Hawk.
"Alright alright alright," General Hawk agreed and quit the conversation. He took the King back to the castle. A surprise awaited him. Huo spend some more time alone and walked into the Castle's court. There he saw a man he had not seen for several months since the extermination of Water Royals, waiting for him eagerly. Huo'er's heart grew tensed for a moment. "What could it be?" He wondered. He smiled and walked towards the old man.
"How are you? Your highness?" He asked Huo.
"Do you have to address me that way? It sounds weird?" Huo replied back.
"But it is the right way, is it not?" He asked the Demom King back.
"It is but not for me, do address me the way you do, say for like should I call you foster father?" He mocked.
"Don't call me that, call me like how you always do," the old man said.
"Haha why is it not the right way?" He asked the question back.
"No," he stopped talking to King Huo.
"Ok ok Shifu forgive me, I was.." Huo was stopped by Master Bo Hai suddenly.
"Are you not going to find your lady?" Shifu asked.
"When the time comes, I will, for now she wished to be alone," he said back.
"Do not forget that she will need you, whether she will ask you or not, accept you or not, a part of her lies in you and just like that, a part of your soul lies in her heart, never forget that, the full potentials depends on each other," Master Bo Hai reminded him again about their connection.
"Why are you telling me this now?" He asked suspiciously. He didn't feel right about something all of a sudden. "I know that you know, tell me where is Aqua right now and what is she upto?" He grew serious. His face changed from the smile to hell lot of suspicion and worry. He took a step closer towards shifu who didn't cooperate with him in revealing the truth. He looked at shifu's face and opened his mouth to speak.
