Chapter 61
The aftermath of the battle against the hunters was enormous. 'The Immortal' was still in good shape, the shield managed to negate most of the damage as only a few buildings were destroyed by the shockwaves.
The general mood of the people was good, as they walked around with smiles on their faces. The ruined buildings were already being restored. They have survived yet another impediment.
The major change was the giant crater the city now stood next to. In the air above the massive hole, was Tizzy and Li who's face was serious as he glanced at the darkness below.
"Can you do it?" Asked Tizzy as he glanced at the enormous chasm that span hundreds of miles in each direction and thousands of miles below the surface.
Nodding, Li tapped his chest and spoke with pride.
"Trust me, Master! I am the best God realm in manipulating the earth energy."
"I know, then I shall leave it to you." Replied Tizzy as he moved back behind Li.
Taking a deep breath, Li steadied his mind before closing his eyes in concentration. A brown smog slowing seeped out of his body as the boisterous sound of rumbling echoed throughout the plane, Omis who was talking with Addi inside Tizzy's tower suddenly paused as he turned to look towards Li's direction.
"That must be Li, he may not be an 'Original' nor is he the strongest amongst the other Gods but his control over earth energy is unequaled." Said Addi.
"Let's go I want to watch." Replied Omis as he flew out of the tower towards Tizzy and Li, Addi silently followed behind him.
Once they got closer to their location, Omis and Addi both halted next to Tizzy who gave them a silent nod of acknowledgment as he kept his eyes on Li.
The thundering sound continued as Li's figure became surrounded by small pebbles floating around him.
As the group glanced at the hole below, the empty chasm slowly began to close as the earth seemed to sew itself back together slowly closing the giant gap.
"Impressive." Said Omis as the large crater slowly disappeared leaving behind a barren land.
Li's figure wobbled in the air as a few beads of sweat trickled down from his forehead before he turned his attention to Tizzy, the brown aura, and the small pebbles vanishing away as he gave him a quick military salute.
"The task is complete 'Imperial Master'!" He said with undisguised pride. Tapping his shoulder, Tizzy replied.
"Good, you did well, let's get back first."
It did not take long before the group found themselves in the usual meeting room inside Tizzy's tower with him sitting at the head of the table and both Addi and Omis to his left and right while Li, Muriel, and Eva all sat next to them.
"Muriel, what's the status?" Asked Tizzy as a maid came up from behind him and handed him a few papers that he quickly glanced at before setting them aside and looked at Muriel.
"The rebuilding process Is already underway, there was no serious damage to the city and we should be back to normal functionality in two to three days." She reported.
"That's good, what about the troops?" He asked causing her to pause for a second as she glanced at both Omis and Addi.
"It's okay Muriel, continue with your report." Nodded Tizzy.
"Yes sir, we have sustained three thousand two hundred and eight casualties, two thousand and eight were Half Immortals, one hundred and ninety were profound Immortals, and ten were Golden Immortals."
Hearing the numbers, the mood around the table turned solemn as Tizzy let out a long sigh.
"*Sigh* Eva, i'll leave you in charge of handing the compensations to those that left their families behind."
"Yes sir!"
"Sir, with the losses we sustained this time I don't think it would be wise to go for the 'Raids'." Said Li with a serious expression.
Tizzy nodded before answering back. "I know..."
He then turned to look at Omis and Addi before speaking.
"I apologize, but it looks like it will get a little bit busy around here so I won't be able to provide much help in searching for your disciple."
Shaking his head, Omis replied.
"Don't mind that, you take care of everything around here i'll just go me and Addi." He said as Addi silently gave a nod of acknowledgment.
"Take Leyla with you, she may not be as strong but she can be very helpful." Answered Tizzy.
"Alright then, let's move." Bluntly said Addi as he suddenly stood up and gave a nod to Tizzy before walking towards the door.
Standing up after him, Omis looked at Tizzy and spoke.
"Take care."
"You too, don't play too much! And if anything happens you know where to come back!"
"Thanks Tizzy." He said before turning around to leave while giving the three Gods a small nod.
Once outside of the tower, Omis turned to Addi and asked.
"Where does Leyla live?"
"Tch, we don't need that bra! She'll just be a pain in the ass!"
"Who's gonna be a pain in the ass you old fart!?" She suddenly replied from behind them as she walked towards them while glaring at Addi.
"See what I told you." Said Addi as he shook his head.
"Come on, it's okay." Replied Omis with a smile before turning to Leyla and continuing.
"We were just looking for you to-"
Not letting him reply, she interrupted. "Ah yes! Leyla knows! Tizzy already sent me a message! Finally! I can go to the surface! Hehe~" She said with a wicked grin as she looked at the ceiling of the 'Underworld'
"We are not going to play you brat, so you better control your perverted fantasies!" Said Addi with a stern look on his face.
Clicking her tongue in annoyance she answered back.
"Tch, I know! Hmph."
Watching the duo arguing with each other made Omis crack a small smile as he was suddenly reminded of the time when all of his clanmates were still together as they joked around.
"What are you smiling about?" Said Addi with annoyance.
"Heh, nothing old man. Let's go." He said with the smile ever so evident on his face as the trio took shot into the air in three beams of light.
