1667 Words
"It is just a minute to twelve" Durga waits anxiously for Evans as she watches the clock ticks.
"Get the bath ready for me" Evans voice sound from behind her.
Durga looks surprise and confused, she turned to see it's really Evans who was supposed to be at the cultivation ground. It is just remaining a minute for Evans to become an immortal as he has wished but here, he is.
"My Lord, why are you here? You are supposed to wait in the cultivation ground till twelve o'clock" Durga said to him still confused.
Evans did not reply her, he looks terrible.
"Does that mean the nine hundred and ninety-nine days are just wasted?" Durga asks slightly angry.
"Get the bath!” he was angrier than her. He did not even have a son; he had just wasted a thousand days because of a son he doesn’t know if he existed or not, but he knew his revelation could not be lies.
Durga is confused; she quickly prepared the bath.
After taking his bath, Evans decides to sleep as he has not slept for the past a thousand days. As he sleeps, he emits a very powerful aura in sleeps, he went into dream about the future.
"Dad! Dad!" A boy child of about four years calls to Evans with pain.
"Rescue me! Rescue me!!" The boy shout to Evans in his dream. The boy stretches his little hand towards Evans for Evans to save him as some people drag him away.
Looking at the boy's pitifully in his dream; Evans could not stop those people dragging the boy away but he felt a strong connection between him and the little boy which he doesn’t know about.
Evans wakes up from his dream covered with so much sweat. It is dawn already.
"This again!" He mutters as he wakes up.
"Could this child really be mine?" Evans looks confused. Since he did not know if he has a child or not, he got confused about who the boy is.
"But he keeps calling me dad" He sighs and stands up from the king size bed in the big luxurious room. The top of the bed is decorated with a leopard skin and some things in the room makes it obvious that the room is not just an ordinary room but the room of a powerful person.
"Why will that little boy keeps calling me dad, if his not my son? Could he Indeed be my son?" Evans thinks seriously.
He knows that he has never had a child before, but from yesterday when he goes to the future, he heard about the boy and in his dream now too. And the boy called him dad; the boy also looks exactly like him too.
"I don't know I have a child all these years?" Evans thinks angrily.
He has never had s*x with anyone before; though he got married five years ago which is the worst mistake of his life and will not want to go back to such past, but no s****l relationship between them.
He wonders where the boy child who looks exactly like him and keeps calling him dad in his dream comes from.
"Why did I get to learn of my son now that I wants to become an immortal?" Evans' anger increases the more he thinks about it.
Now that he possesses the gift to see the future, he knows the event he just saw in his dream about the boy child is something that will happen soon and he must act fast.
He gets worried because he keeps seeing the boy and he knows that if his he sees the same thing again and again like that, it is something that will happen soon.
"Did I really have a child somewhere that I don't know about?" He thinks seriously.
The dream is so real and he could feel a strong connection with the child, so he believes that the boy child is really his child. He put on his cloth since he slept shirtless and leave his bedroom.
"My Lord" Durga call to him and bows down.
"Gathered the disciples" Now that he believes that his mission is to save his son, he knows he has to prepare himself.
Durga looks confused.
“My Lord” she calls to understand what he meant.
“Gather the disciples, I have to save my son” he adds.
“Son?” Durga could not understand what he meant.
"But my Lord, you have an invitation from the city. It is from the royal place. It came when you are in the cultivation ground" Durga said holding the invitation that came from the palace.
Evans smirked mockingly when he heard about the invitation. He has actually been waiting for the invitation to come because he already saw that he will be invited to the palace soon.
He has been preparing for three years for his return to the city.
Five years ago, he was forced out of the city because of a cause he did not know about.
He was not only forced out of the city for the wrong cause, but they try to kill him too. He believes it is the time to show himself as the new Lord of Arizona and save his son too.
"My Lord" Durga calls again.
"Will you honor the royal invitation?" She asks curiously.
For three years, after Evans became the new Lord of Arizona, he has not shown himself in the city.
Durga thought that after he becomes an immortal as he wanted, he will get to visit the Palace in a grand manner, but he did not even get to become an immortal but instead wants to go to the city. To save his son that does not exist.
"Don't they want me to foresee the future of the prince's marriage? I will honor the invitation" Evans replies knowingly.
He already saw into the future that he will be invited to the royal palace in the city to foresee the fate of the royal prince Irk with his to-be wife.
He has been waiting for that day to show himself to them all and even the George family who lied against him and tried to kill him five years ago.
He smiles wickedly thinking about how their reactions will be when they finally get to see him after five years as the new Lord of Arizona whom everyone wants to meet.
King Luke, the present ruling king from the Myrtle family has invited him from time to time to visit the Palace after he heard about his power and fame, but Evans refuse to honor the invitation each time.
"They will never imagine the new Lord of Arizona is the cast-away criminal from five years ago" Evans thinks and scoffs.
"I’m going to chop all of them down now. They are not even willing to spare my son after what they did to me" Evans think angrily.
With his gifts, he had acquired so many wealth over the years and became so powerful that other Lords around the country bows to him.
The rich people around the world seeks him for solutions and they rely on his power for the global economic system, because whatever he says will surely come to past no matter what.
It was as if he controls the future and the past with his spoken words.
When king Luke of the Myrtle family who was the same person that judge Evans five years ago heard about Evans' power and influence. He invited him to the palace on several occasions but Evans always reject his invitations.
The king decides to invite him again to the Palace this time because the heir to his throne, prince Irk is about to get married. He wants to know the future of his son's marriage with Sharon from the Blake family.
With all that power, Evans knew he could still die and decides to go into cultivation for one thousand days to become an immortal, but it was aborted because he had to save his son.
"They did not only plan to kill me five years ago, but also wants to drag my son to his death too" Evans thinks and smirked wickedly.
"The invitation came in handy"
"Assemble the disciple and prepare to leave for the city" he said to Durga who thought he was going to change his mind.
Durga quickly gets the most trained disciples of the court together, ready to leave for the city.
They all assembled with their swords ready to fight to death. Evans look at them one after the other to make sure they are capable. He does not know what kind of challenge he was going to face in the city because the George family not only holds the power to appoint king but they have supernatural powers too, likewise the royal families.
He knew it will not be easy to fight against those two powerful families to get his revenge five years ago for what they did to him and to also save his son.
"If need be, we fight to die. I have to save my son" Evans tells them.
"What is happening?" Garis, the old seer comes out hastily to ask Durga. Garis was in his chamber when he heard the commotion going on and comes out to see what is happening.
"Lord Evans suddenly left the cultivation ground without completing the day of becoming. I thought he going to complete his cultivation to become an immortal but he insisted he was going to the city to save his son which did not even exist" Durga said to Garis looking angered.
"Humm..." Garis, who is in his seventy with grey hairs hummed.
"This is the first time Lord Evans will appear in the city. It should not be for war" Durga said to the old seer worriedly.
"Let fate take its course" Garis replies.
