When they returned to the city, the sheep were given the same treatment every other animal received, food and water first. As usual there was a lot of excitement and chatter about the things which the governors had found. The live stock department had to send away idlers that were trying to sneak in and take a peak at the sheep.

Some people like the seventh prince could not be turned away, who would dare to stop a prince? The workers stood to the side and watched him take pictures of the sheep before he departed. You can trace the roots of this content at n0v@lbin

The pictures he took were sent to the emperor who had also received a package containing ten cola fruits. Along with the fruits was a video explaining how to poke a hole and drink the liquid inside. King Wu was not a fussy man and despite the maids bringing him a glass, he drunk the cola directly from the fruit.

"It's,_" he licked his lips, "Interesting." he added. "Sweet like the juice but not too sweet."

Because the growth of fruits from seeds passed down by the ancestors was a thing of greatness, a few ministers had been invited to look at the fruit and taste the cola. However, only the emperor had done any tasting so far and they watched him drink a second fruit while swallowing saliva.

"According to the professors it tastes refreshing when it's cold." his secretary reminded him. "Perhaps we should put the rest of the fruits in cold storage."

"Yes, great idea." the emperor nodded in agreement.

Helplessly, the few ministers watched the fruits being carted away with greedy eyes.

"As you can see," the emperor addressed them, "Professors Oak and Bell of the Agricultural bureau have made some progress on the blue star in successfully growing some fruit trees from some of the seeds provided to them. There are six of you ministers in this room, four amongst you have written petitions and spear headed campaigns to cut down the funding of that bureau. What do you think now?" He leaned forward and looked at his ministers.

"It's amazing your majesty, extremely astonishing." one minister said.

"I suggest that the fruits be harvested and brought here to the capital for further studies your majesty. We should form a new team to see how we can grow the yield better." another said.

The emperor scowled, he found it unappealing that the two who were most vocal in calling the agricultural bureau a black hole of funding were the first to speak.

"No," soul eaters, the collector types. "I found five of them." She released those ones too.

The bells went off, signifying the delivery of soul eaters and other reapers made way. She knew that this would cause a fuss, many would talk and her name would be trending on the forum again tomorrow.

"Ah, reaper Scarlet, it's good to see you." the soul registrar she approached spoke to her calmly with a smile.

"Thank you, it's good to see you too." she smiled back.

"Is Severus the thirty first with you?" he asked.

"No, we had a long day and he stayed back to rest, if you give me your name I will tell him that you asked about him."

The soul registrar nodded, "Tell him Old McGee asked after him and that I have a soul attracting stone. He should meet me for a trade, he knows what I want."

"I will." she replied.

The soul eaters were taken away first, the rest of the souls were counted and she received her crystals. She gave Ezrah the things she had promised her to aid her cultivation.

"Are you leaving now?" Ezrah asked her.

"Yes, I have a fight tomorrow in my world, I need to focus. If you want to talk send me a message on the forum."

"You are on the leaderboard fights, you also fight in your world, when do you rest?"

"I would say that I will rest when I die but I died and I am not resting." Scarlet responded and shrugged. Both she and Ezrah laughed at the irony of her statement.

"I you need anything contact me, okay, bye bye. Thank you for the cultivation aids." Ezrah waved at her. Scarlet waved back with a smile, disappeared and she opened her eyes in the real world, Esong was sleeping with one of his arms on her waist just as he had been doing when she went on soul delivery. She smiled and inched herself closer to him and closed her eyes, going to sleep.
