After arriving home, Jonah began studying the dandelion immediately. The size of the dandelion was about the size of a small corsage. It had already been cleaned up and after a simple polishing work, it revealed a golden green and transparent smooth shell. Jonah managed to break it into several pieces with no efforts at all. He picked up one of the pieces as he began expecting it. As expected, there were some fiber roots stretching out from the bottom of the flower. This was the Zinghi root of the ocean, one of the eight treasures of Buddhism and since it was enclosed and buried under the seas for years, it was even more spiritual. Moreover, only zinghi roots with a lifespan of more than a hundred years would have any psychic and spiritual powers contained within them. They were formed by absorbing the essence and reiki contained in the deep layers of the ocean. The zinghi root was one of the rarest and most spiritual treasures in the world that was not easily found. This was
At this time, Jerry took the bracelet in hand, still puzzled over Jonah giving it to him. But he couldn’t help but admire the intricate designs of the bracelet, it seemed as if Jonah was an excellent bead maker. He stared at it for a while before he asked “You made this yourself?” “Yes” Jonah nodded before he replied, “This pearl necklace has the effect of calming the nerves and also creating a barrier in front of whoever wears it when they’re being attacked. In addition, it will also create an energy arrow that can pierce through anything. If she wears it often, it will also ward off evil. It was a little too rushed today, that is why the workmanship is rough but still it is a diamond in a rough and if she can wear it, she won’t have any problems staying safe or defending herself” Before Jonah could say anything else, Jerry smiled and said “Thank you Jonah, I like it very much. I think she will too” Then he looked away uncomfortably and stuttered “uh…about my affections for Ms F
Jonah was frozen for a moment. He knew it was dangerous for him to involve Jerry and the man was right, if he needed to follow him through this, he had to let him know what he was getting himself involved in. Therefore, he sighed and gave in. Slowly, he turned towards Jerry and said “Have you ever heard about the Osini?” Jerry looked at him with a puzzled expression on his face and then leaned against the car as he asked “I haven’t. What are they?” At this time, Jonah heaved a sigh and started “The Osini is a powerful entity. It has been prophesied that it would bring damnation and chaos to the world. But right now, its powers are limited because it’s currently inhabiting Justin’s body” At the mention of this, Jerry’s eyes widened in shock. He was suddenly filled with fear as he backed away from Jonah “Mr Blake, what…what do you mean it’s currently using Justin’s body as a vessel?” Without allowing Jonah to reply, he quickly added “So you mean to tell me that that’s what we’ll be
Jerry took the Zinghi from Jonah before he hesitated for a moment. “Jonah what happens if this doesn’t work?” “If Justin is too strong, what if he overpowers us and gets both the blade and the Zinghi from us. What happens then?” He asked, panic quickly setting in. Jonah shot him a reassuring smile before he said “Then we would have known that we did our best to protect the world that we know and make it a better place” Jerry frowned as he thought about the entire situation. He did not know why, but he suddenly felt like his entire life had been about serving others. If he could get out of this situation alive, he was going to start thinking about himself and what he wanted for a change. First he was going to start by asking Sasha out on a date. Apart from being a little cold and having no patience whatsoever, Sasha did not seem like a bad person at all. Moreover, she gave him a sense of security and warmth even without doing anything at all. He remained quiet for a long while, po
“How did you know it was me?” Jonah asked, staring directly at Justin and gripping the knife firmly Justin smirked and jumped off from the rock he was standing on at this time“Tsk tsk tsk. Jonah…Jonah…Jonah, I have to give it to you, you’re good. You managed to fool an entire town into believing you’re some poor fool with no cent to your pocket. Even I, am impressed and that’s a lot coming from me. You already know my profile, arson, grand theft, fraud, identity theft, robbery, I’ve done it all - the perfect con man. But I doubt I could convince a whole town of people to believe a fake identity I put up and even be so immersed in the role for them to believe it, but then again, things were all made easier cause of daddy’s connections weren’t there, Mr Blake?” Justin said with a mischievous grin on his face and took another step forward “So tell me, how did you do it?” He asked, seemingly excited and curious to hear. However, just before Jonah could say anything, he quickly int
“I was wondering when you were going to show up” Jonah said, addressing the Osini and pulling out the blade Immediately, the Osini’s eyes landed on the weapon and for a moment fear flashed in its eyes. When Jonah noticed this, he felt more reassured that this was certainly the weapon to take it down “Where did you get that from?” It asked with a weary look Jonah stretched out the weapon and raised his hand “What? This little thing? I’m glad you recognize it. Now you know that this fight is evenly matched” Justin laughed pompously “I wouldn’t call it even. I do recognize the weapon, those pesky villagers tried to use it on me in one of my lives” he started then looked away, “It was so gratifying when I slit all of their throats with it and burned down their village. You see I’ve been around a long time Jonah, a lot longer than you and you and I have always faced off in every lifetime and up until now you’ve always won, but now things have changed” “It took me dying several times t
Jonah remained quiet for a long time and then lifted his gaze and asked “And if I refuse?”Immediately, a flash of disappointment appeared on Justin’s face“Think it over again. This is what you want Jonah, what we both want” the Osini said“No, it’s not what I want” Jonah replied immediately, moving fearlessly towards the Osini“What I want is to rid the world of you. We are not the same. You say we want the same things but we don’t. You are a vile deceptive creature by nature, anywhere you go disaster and pain strikes. All you create along your path is darkness and chaos. For hundreds of years it has always been so, so I don’t care if the guardians lied to me or if the human faction will rise up and be the reason the world breaks. The difference between you and I is that you are willing to destroy and enact all sorts of evil to get what you want, even if that means having to kill thousands or millions of innocent people. You see you’ve got it all wrong, humans are not all bad. I
“Get him out of here!” Jonah shouted. Immediately, Jerry crouched, propped Don Petro on his shoulders and carried him back towards the car. Before Jonah could react, the Osini lunged at him and punched him again in the face, but this time Jonah only staggered a few steps back and then stood up again“There he is!” The Osini exclaimed upon seeing Jonah frown furiously “The big powerful Zurik. You know you could have made this easier, but I have to admit, I think I’m going to enjoy this even more”Jonah was growing more and more impatient of hearing the Osini’s voice. He wielded the blade firmly and then with a quick movement, started running towards the Osini. As he continued, his feet started building great momentum and after a while, he started floating using the Reiki around his body to balance his momentum.Surprisingly, the Osini did not move or try to get out of the way. He remained standing and then when Jonah got closer, he held the knife and stopped Jonah mid air. It seemed
