The Heavenly Road: God Hunters

Ch35 Manager Row Riqu's

"If it's not wrong, her name is Row Riqu. I assigned my Master to meet him. Can Senior take me to see him?" Obviously Asta.

'What-what?! This kid even dared to mention his name directly. Who is this child and what is his background. To the extent that he dared to mention directly the name of the Manager, that's how the young man thought.

"Hey..!! Young man, who do you dare to mention the name of the Manager directly. You think you're his nephew, huh..?!!" Shouted one of the visitors.

"Buck! It seems like you're tired of living for saying something so disrespectful. As a form of respect to the Manager I will cut off your head," said the others.

Asta began to be confused by the attitude of these people who suddenly wanted to kill him. He himself felt he had done nothing wrong.

"Seniors, I apologized earlier for offending you. But I actually came here on my teacher's orders to find someone instead of causing trouble. What is it about this guy named Row Riqu that makes Senior want to kill me...?" Asta asked confused by her innocent face.

"Quite the talk..!!" Said someone directly attacking Asta. Followed by the others who were also about to attack him.

"Whoever touches it don't expect to see the sun rise tomorrow" said the handsome young man who had earlier invited Asta to speak. The voice was indeed slow but it was clearly heard in the ears of everyone who was there.

Seeing the young man who was not allowed to attack, they also complied.

"You're lucky that there's a Young Master here, boy," one of the men told him. They went back to their initial activities, looking around at the associations.

In the end Asta could not find a reason why they were angry at him just because he mentioned the name of the man. 'What is wrong with mentioning someone's name directly?'

"Gee! Wasn't the young master looking for someone before? I happen to know where that person is" the man said.

"Senior! Didn't we ever know each other before? Why is senior helping me?" Ask Asta.

"That's because I like helping others in distress. So just relax. Introduce my name Yuan Tiandu, from the Tiandu family," he introduced himself.

"Senior is a really good guy. Then this junior is only grateful for senior help, if senior can help me," Asta said.

"Ahh, of course you can. It just so happened that the Manager has come from yesterday. Let me take the young master to meet him," Yuan Tiandu said.

The young man called a waiter and asked if Manager Row was busy. The waiter said that Manager Row was in his room and not in any busyness.

"Senior! if you can tell, who is this senior. Looks like senior is quite respected here," asked Asta curiously. When I see people being so respectful towards the young man.

"My family happens to have quite an important position in Tiandu City. Well, so that's it. The young master simply called me Yuan alone," Yuan explained introducing his identity.

Asta nodded in understanding. Then he glanced at Zaru. The one sitting on his shoulder. Yet once Zaru looked indifferently aware Asta was paying attention to him. Flares smiled little at him.

'Ahh, so you're part of the Tiandu Family. Then let me ask you. Who is Gui Tiandu to you, ' Zaru asked through thought.

Yuan was surprised to hear the question. From the beginning, ever since the Bear pressed him with his aura. Yuan had already realized that the Bear was no ordinary Bear. Especially with two small horns on his head.

'you... Do you know him? He is my grandfather, Yuan replied.

Suddenly, Zaru patted Asta on the head and pointed in a direction in the room.

"What's wrong? Why are you suddenly patting me," Asta said as he watched the thing Zaru showed.

"What's? Where's?" Asta asked directly looking towards the ceiling.

As long as Asta looks for the things he points to. Zaru took out something from his ring and threw it towards Yuan Tiandu.

'Accept it. And use it well. That thing should be yours anyway. It was one of the things he loaned me. And now I return it to its rightful owner, ' Zaru said.

Yuan Tiandu nodded quickly thanking him. Without checking it first, Yuan already knew what kind of thing Zaru had given him.

"Are you pranking me? It's up to you to point out when I don't care" Asta said.

"Ohh yes Young Master. Can I know the name Young Master?" Yuan asked Asta's name, which he did not know from the beginning.

"I'm Asta. Senior Yuan is enough to call me with just Asta alone. Don't mind Zaru's words" Asta said.

"Ahhh, fine then," Yuan breathed a sigh of relief to hear Asta say that. Which meant that he did not have to worry anymore with Zaru who would suddenly suppress him again.

"Junior Asta. In front of it is the Manager's room. Junior wait here, let me knock on the door" Yuan Tiandu said and headed to Manager Row's room.

Yuan Tiandu then tried to knock on Manager Row's door. Suddenly, there was a sound of an explosion coming from inside the room. This was followed by the scream of someone complaining.

"Yuan..!! Didn't I tell you not to bother me while I was doing Forging. You know, I'm forging a level 5 Artifact. There are not many servants there. Why are you coming to disturb me, Yuan..!!!" manager Row was furious with him.

"Ohh..! I'm sorry, Manager, but there's someone who wants to see you. And it seems like he is an important person," Yuan replied with a chuckle.

Asta then approached the two of them and greeted Manager Row who was staring at him. Manager Row himself felt familiar when he noticed Asta's face. However, he felt that he did not know her.

'Who is this boy. His cultivation is quite high at this age. What exactly is he looking for me, ' murmured Manager Row in his heart.

"All right then I'll step down first. There are still things I have to do," Yuan said, leaving them both.

"Go! How many times have you bothered me, boy!" Shouted Manager Row still furious.

"Hehehehehe. sorry," he replied, saying goodbye.

Yuan Tiandu also returned to the main hall of the Association to search for the item he was looking for earlier.

Far from what he imagined, Asta found that the figure called Manager Row was not as old as he had imagined. He looked more like a middle-aged man in general, rather than an old man. He was younger than his teacher told him.

"So, what do you want to ask me, junior," the manager asked.

"Sorry, Senior! Because the juniors who came to interfere finally thwarted Senior's forging process," he said with a bow.

Earlier when Yuan Tiandu called the Manager, Zaru had jumped down from his shoulder. Realizing he was not considered by her, the look on his face changed instantly.

He jumped back on Asta's shoulder. Only then did Row's countenance instantly change after looking at him.

Asta was astonished by Manager Row's attitude when he looked at Zaru. Zaru, on the other hand, only seemed to be smiling.

"Aa, anu, greetings, Manager Row. I'm Asta Raiken. Nice to meet you," said Asta introducing himself.

Manager Row's gaze was still completely directed at Zaru. He seemed to be unconcerned about Asta who was introducing himself.

Manager Row then pulled out a hammer from inside his ring. Instantly, Asta felt the suppression of the air around him. Asta shuddered in horror and was amazed by the aura emanating from Manager Row's hammer.

Not to be outdone, Zaru also pulled the horn. Revealing his Universal Destruction spear. Which gave off an aura no less powerful than the hammer.

"Spirit Techniques, Spatial Scope. Sheath Dimension Separate,"

Asta was so shocked. Looking at Manager Row who was really serious about wanting to fight.

'Is this person serious...?!! He actually directly used spirit techniques to lock us both up here! Damnit damnit! it's impossible for me to be able to help Zaru! This difference in strength was far away! I can die-!!' asta shouted in his heart.

'Actually, who is this boy. Why could he take her around so casually. Does this kid not know who this horned bear he's carrying. And also, how could the seal be released. It is impossible for such a high-level seal to weaken at the eating of age, ' murmured Manager Row puzzled while wondering for himself in his heart.

'It's not wrong, even though hundreds of years have passed. There was no way I could forget that aura and form. Most people only know it is a giant bear as big as a mountain. Because he never showed it its true form. But now, he really uses it. Is it possible, this brat had subdued him and told him to change to his original form?' mumbling again.

Manager Row was completely confused to take action. Will he attack Zaru. Or will take Asta hostage. Who currently seems to be having trouble holding the pressure.

"What are you thinking, huh..? Didn't you want to attack me. Then come here right now" said Zaru, breaking his daydream.

"What a miracle that never existed. It seems like even dozens of Great Divine Cultivators and a few Celestial Experts are still not enough to hold you back," Manager Row replied.

"Haha! Junk like you is not enough to hold me back! But because of that, I thank you enough. Because you have put me in the Valley at least you know yourself enough not to put me on the bottom of the sea" Zaru said with a loud laugh.

"Ofyy, Zaru! So arrogant of you. If it wasn't for the impossible teacher you'd be here right now" Asta scoffed.

"That's..!!!"

'Damn, this brat really wants to humiliate me in front of him,'

"What..?! Isn't that the truth. Stop dramatizing. Hurry up, help me escape this pressure" Asta said.

"Huhh..?!!! After you talk like that and you ask me to help you? Do you really have no shame?" Shouted Zaru.

Manager Row was silent. While trying to think about what Asta meant by his teacher. He then looked at Asta's face in more detail. Trying to figure out why she was familiar with him before.

In contrast to Manager Row, Asta and Zaru are even involved in a conflict. The two of them replied to each other and mocked each other.

"Manager Row..!!! Stop daydreaming like that. Please pull back your aura. I couldn't hold on much longer" cried Asta, trying to resuscitate Manager Row, who looked like he was daydreaming.

'Face of this boy! Wait up! If not wrong, the name..... Ahhh. I should feel familiar with him! It looks like that! But if he was Raiken and Misaki's son. Then who is that teacher? Shouldn't the Wolf be the Spirit. Why is he with Zaru now. Did he become his second Animal Spirit. Ehh, wait, he even called Zaru by his name directly. Then his teacher, Manager Row did not continue his thoughts. He realized that if he continued, he would remember old memories that he had tried to forget.

"......!!!!!!! Is it not over yet dreamt. I could die-!!" Shouted Asta trying to resuscitate him.

Zaru actually kept laughing at Asta. Who can't even stand under the pressure of Manager Row.

Manager Row finally realized from his daydream. He then immediately retracted his aura so that Asta could breathe calmly. Similarly, Zaru who reassembled his horns.

Not to forget he also canceled his spirit techniques. At that time, the door of the room was opened. Shows people who are worried about Manager Row. Yuan Tiandu. He had the most panicked expression. Because he's in charge of bringing Asta into his room.

She approached Manager Row to ask him. The people who were curious, followed Yuan Tian's footsteps. And listen to what is going on. So that Manager Row had used his spirit techniques to lock his room so that no one could enter.

"Managers! What the hell is going on..?! Are you okay..??!" Yuan Tiandu asked in panic.

"Ahh, there's nothing. I'm doing fine. Come back. You don't have to worry about me that much. I'm doing fine. After all, even if there was something I would have been able to solve it myself. Even without your help," replied the Manager with a smile.

They smiled awkwardly at Manager Row's reply. Similarly, Yuan Tiandu who had bad thoughts about Asta and Zaru. He apologized to Asta and Zaru.

"Haaaaahh.. I almost died because of Manager Row. But the senior thought I was the one who wanted to harm the Manager. How could I dare to do that. Even if I did, maybe I would die in just one breath" Asta said, looking at Manager Row. He seemed to smile in shame.

People laughed at Asta's words. If Asta wanted to do it, he would just die silly in front of Manager Row. Which was one of the truly powerful pillars of the Arkhan Empire.

However, it is different from what people think. In fact, Asta will not be able to face the Manager. However, Yuan Tiandu knew that Zaru was a legendary figure long ago. And he is confident that Zaru is able to face Manager Row.

'Even though Junior Asta can't do it. But Senior Zaru's presence here could be the reason why Manager Row suddenly used his spirit techniques. Manager Row has been involved in the process of sealing it. So maybe he was very surprised when he realized it suddenly came after a long time in the seal. He thought that Senior Zaru wanted revenge when in reality it was not,'

After that, Yuan Tiandu and those people came out. Leave the three of them in the room.

"So can you explain all of this" Manager Row said.

"Explain what? Explain why I'm using my true form?" Ask Zaru.

"Everything. Including that reason as well," said the Manager.

"Can we talk while sitting down. I'm really tired after this incident,"

Manager Row nodded in agreement with what Asta said. It would indeed be better if they spoke calmly while sitting down.

"But before that, did this Association sell food and drink? It just so happens that I haven't eaten anything after entering this city. My stomach's hungry,"

Heavenly Note

The Red Dawn Association was one that sold all the needs of cultivators. Starting from Artifacts, Heavenly Art, Medicinal Pills and others. The association was founded by Row Manager Row Riqu.

The Red Dawn Association had various branches in every Empire and other Countries. There was certainly a reason why the Association could be so powerful that no one would dare to offend it, as the full might of the Association itself almost equaled one Empire. While Manager Row himself was a Celestial Expert who was as powerful as Emperor Arkhan.
