Few hours later.
The sunrays from beyond, though of less intensity bathed the clouds rose red. There was very little to tell that it just rained incredibly heavy few hours ago; the air though cooler was not that wet and the view of the evocative sky was like of the buildings and structures—not damp but with a touch of liveliness and radiance.
On top of lavender guild executuve buildung, precisely on the parapet corresponding to its facade, Skylar with the stylish mask he got from madame Juli on his face stood hands in his pants pocket, his cloak dancing to the music of cool and gentle evening breeze as he watched with muted fascination sky vehicles and sometimes sky vessels fly in the sky—going were they are being driven to, slow or fast.
Something has definitely changed, I just can't put my hands on it. Maybe I need to ask someone. But not now.
Skylar's eyes shifted from a two-storey quadrangle building about 250 meters from the front of their territory, moving along his lowered head—looking up—and they caught Goldie in his 10 meter tall form flying above him and from behind him with wings fully stretched and motionless.
While still looking up; he gently tapped on the engraved wooden coping of the parapet that support him with his left foot. And in the next instant and in one movement, he lept powerfully but silently—rising into the air with great speed. And when he reached a certain point in the sky—suspended—Goldie diving paused underneath him, and he slowly landed on his back of soft velvety feathers.
"Let's go. Kitty land." Skylar instructed, then positioning nose-up at an angle, Goldie launched, flying towards the sky, reaching and maintaining a speed almost the speed of sound—the ground level and lower sky speed limit in all safe zones.
"That Yami bitch is wicked, she almost ruined my spine." Skylar muttered, holding his waist as he sit on Goldie's back, wind crashing on him, but doing no harm.
"She also didn't let me sleep." He added. Then at the same time, Goldie unconcerned with Skylar's monolog pierced through a mass of red rose cloud, continuing his upward ascent, and on Skylar's face was left a small foamy mass of cloud stuck to it, making him looking comical.
...
About seventeen minutes later, coming from their block—block 888—to block 900, and ending a super speed flight in the higher skies; Goldie decelerating rapidly in the sky nose dived, heading downwards and towards kitty land building below, and also at the same time, the spherical natural energy barrier encasing them, though invisible, starts to fade.
A moment later, as Goldie reached closer to the building, Skylar, already standing on his back jumped down towards the ground head first, and at the same time, he switched direction swiftly, flying back towards the sky, while Skylar heading downwards gain balance in the sky and starts diving towards the ground with trails of wind accompanying him from behind.
Shortly after, gently and quietly, Skylar flip 180 degress in the air—pointing his feet towards the ground—and he later landed on the ground amongst what will be considered a sparse crowd, since their a lot of spaces between people, which is due to the relative size of buildings in the safe zones.
This place is really crawling with people.
Surprised, Skylar briefly scrutinized the crowd heading towards practically the same place—the back entrance tunnel of Kitty land he is now familiar with and he is also facing. He resumed his journey, walking towards the tunnel entrance like the sparse crowd of men.
Times passed. As he got closer to the tunnel, he saw a feminine figure in a black niqab and a black fur neckline full-length overcoat, flanked by two stunning women, with one holding a black umbrella that shades all three of them; coming in his direction.
Almost colliding with them, he paused as they also did. He narrowed his eyes, certain he is familiar with the concealed personage. And because he chose not to confirm by looking at their eyes visible behind the niqab or by other means but by reminding their presence, he stared at the ground, engaging his subconscious.
"My lord. Its me." The personage naturally seductive voice with a touch of girly innocence, remind him of someone he recently met, and now sure of who she is, raising his head, he first look at the stunning woman to their left, Mrs Saras who is still dressed as earlier when they first met, and as she nodded at him with a polite smile, he nodded back. Then he looked to the right at the other stunning woman, a fair-skinned brunette, dressed in an off-white ruffle-placket tie-neck shirt tucked into a plain black tight-fitting miniskirt. And after he glimpse her rather small chest, he clicked his tongue and scrunched his left nostril, and seeing this, the stunning woman, almost popping a vein on one side of her temple tightened her grip on the umbrella she is holding, obviously displeased, but concealing it.
Done checking out the two stunning women, unbothered by the response of the one with small breast he is not acquainted with, Skylar diverted his focus and attention to the personage in the middle, and his eyes behind the mask—unbridled—gawk at her obviously gigantic chest region shielded by her full-length overcoat that can't stop attracting attention.
They are really ginormous, I love it.
With thought on his mind, Skylar grinned somewhat vulgarly behind his mask, and upon noticing this by the three, only the small chest stunning woman reacted to it by showing a withheld angry expression on her pretty nubile face.
"My lord... lord Star has been waiting for your return. I would like to take you to them." The personage sounding polite met Skylar's eyes, and Skylar nodded.
"Okay, let's go."
Saying this, as Skylar was about to head towards Mrs Saras side, his eyes caught the shapely large protruding rear of the small chest woman that is further highlighted by her slim waist and tight-fitting skirt, as they all turned around.
Wow! They are hefty and protruding, what a redemption. I will forgive her.
Pleased with the sight he moved on and as he was about to reach Mrs Saras side, Mrs Saras quickly block his path, leaving a gap between her and the personage, catching him offguard.
"My lord... its my pleasure to walk by your side."
With the personage requesting, he shrugged in his mind and moved to the space, positioning between her and Mrs Saras, and like that, they commence their match in the direction of the tunnel entrance, with some of the sparse crowd glancing their direction here and there from time to time.
"Mrs Saras, are you married?"
"Yes, she is my wife."
Right away as Skylar asked, the small chest woman answered snappily instead of Mrs Saras who starts checking out the golden ring on her ring finger, turning her slightly raised hand here and there, looking pleased with a sweet smile of reminiscence on her face.
"Tch." Skylar on the other hand, clicked his tongue, turning his face elsewhere, obviously not pleased.
"What a waste." He added in a soft quiet voice, and in response, the small chest woman almost popped another vein, clearly displeased, but before she could respond verbally, the veiled personage walking along between them spoke up:
"My lord, her name is Nicky T... a former high-ranking tower personnel."
"Oh!" Skylar responded, sounding somewhat surprised, and Nicky T, the small chest woman instinctively puffed her small chest proudly as her face and grey-green eyes lit up with a proud smile.
"She is also my friend and secretary." The personage added.
"I see." Skylar responded, sounding unimpressed. He continued. "Is a tower personnel impressive?"
"Yes my lord, especially the high-ranking personnels." The personage replied. "In our world—the world of users... because they are the voice of the tower, acting like divine messengers, we respect them as much as we respect the tower itself, even players do. My lord, have you not met one?"
"Nope. Never met any except the sailors." Skylar replied, shaking his head.
[>Welcome To Kitty Land<]
Just then, his player interface pop up for him to see, notifying him as they entered the sparsely populated tunnel. And at the same time the security personnels on duty at attention bowed in their direction, greeting them.
However, the personage that is not looking in their direction continued; she shook her head and relayed. "No my lord, the sailors are low ranking. It shouldn't be, its strange. But I am certain you must have met the tower manager?"
"Manager? Which one? CEO Helen?" Skylar asked, confused.
"My lord, you have not met the tower manager?! Lady Lavender!" The personage somewhat screaming, sounded shocked and surprise. Furthermore, Mrs Saras and Nicky T having been paying close attention frowned, showing a confused expression.
Finding their reaction amusing, Skylar smiled and replied, "I have not met her. Who is she exactly?"
Before anyone replied him, taking a left turn and guiding him, they proceed on a path towards the tunnel wall. And all the while, Nicky T and Mrs Saras especially still showed a confused expression; they were contemplating deeply.
"My lord, have you registered?" The personage broke the silence. And when Nicky T and Mrs Saras heard her, the confusion on thier stunning faces was replaced with a smile of relief. However to their surprise, Skylar smiled.
"Yes." He answered. And the eyes of the personage narrowing, turned thoughtfully focused, and Mrs Saras and Nicky T like earlier fell into another mood of contemplation.
...
A moment later, they stood in front of the tunnel wall that has hyper-realistic painting of naked women on it. And after the personage placed her palm on the wall, an outlined part, parted open at the middle like a sliding door, revealing a large lit-up cubicle. And after she lead them in, the door closed, and as Skylar could passively sense, the cubicle starts ascending like an elevator.
Half a minute went by, until Skylar coming back mentally online, broke the silence:
"You have not told me who exactly the manager is?"
His question obviously aimed at the personage behind him who still has a thoughtful focused eyes caused her to jolt out of her thought just as Mrs Saras and Nicky T who similarly have been in deep contemplation returned thier awareness to the cubicle.
Moving closer to him and standing right beside him, the personage replied, "My lord, Lady Lavender is the one in charge of our tower; just like every tower has a manager, she is our manager. And for the other towers, thier managers also bears the name of the safe zone they are in, its the rule..."
"I think I have heard something similar." Skylar interjected, looking thoughtful. He continued. "So they are being practically named by the pioneers?"
"Yes, my lord. The pioneers are very much the most exalted people in their safe zone, user or player. They are like second in command to the managers."
"I see..." Skylar responded. However as he was about to continue, the elevator stopped, and as a door behind them starts parting from the midle, opening up, everyone, includung him turned around, and after the door fully opened, like usual—side by side, they exit the cubicle and paused thier feet on the chameleon glass floor of a wide brightly lit corridor that is acros the cubicle exit.
"Nicky and Mrs Saras, please inform Lord Star about Lord Skylar arrival, I will take them to guest room 4." The personage instructed.
"But?" Nicky T hesitated, looking worried. She looked at the personage that has taken Skylar's arm. And Skylar meanwhile, gave her the side eye, thinking he is not that stupid to violate the tower laws randomly, and even if he wants to do anything she is thinking he would do, definitely no one around can stop him, so why the fuss?
"Nicky." The personage sounded uncharacteristically stern.
"Be careful." Nicky T responding warned her and glared at Skylar. Then reluctantly, with Mrs Saras expressionlessly following behind her, she left them and headed towards the corridor wall a bit far away in front of them.
"My lord. I am sorry you have to see that. I will take you to your resting place." Saying this, the personage grabbed Skylar's arm more firmly and turned to her left, guiding him on their way along the corridor while he think to himself, looking zoned out.
