The Bored Immortal

Mijo, who had a thoughtful expression, responded late to Rita's question and said in a tone of reverence, "She is the only daughter of the Fujo Clan's patriarch, Lady Nyissa. You all might not know her since she rarely ever steps out from her private estate. In fact, it has been years since she showed up before others. And she is one of the most important figures around here, especially in her own clan, and is only below the patriarch."

Viktor's brows crossed together and thought that the Fujo Clan held immense power and prestige among the local people, hearing the respectful tone in which Mijo was speaking about them.

In fact, just recently, he only learned from Mijo about how the Fujo Clan was the one who basically ran everything on the island and not the government.

Viktor guessed that all the lands here were basically owned by this clan behind the scenes and let the government own some only in name.

However, he wondered why he never heard about this shut-in clan when he came here years ago.

But then again, he knew that he barely stayed for a day before leaving, and nor did he visit any places the last time he came here. He had only come here in pure curiosity and did not have the mood to explore after coming here during that time.

Rita and the others were astonished to hear that the woman they just saw had such a prestigious status though they didn't have much idea of how powerful the Fujo Clan was since this clan rarely showed its face in public, just like Mijo said.

"She looks so beautiful like a goddess, mom. I have never seen anyone pretty like her! Is she an actress or something??" Dory asked in an excited tone. He just couldn't stop dreaming about her beauty in his mind and was immediately smitten by her.

Mijo cleared his throat, hearing his question while Rita gestured to her son to not ask such silly questions, feeling embarrassed. She could only hope that her son doesn't open his big mouth again lest he offends the locals here since she could see how important that lady was to these people, making her feel admiration for her.

Mijo didn't take any offense at the boy's question since he knew that the Fujo Clan were not people who followed the modern way of life and said, "The Fujo Clan is a clan specializing in martial arts. So no, Lady Nyissa is not an actress or anything but an expert martial artist who is greatly respected by those who know her. It's unwise to assume things about her just because of how young she looks. In the absence of the patriarch, she is the one who makes all the decisions wisely and is a born leader," Mijo said earnestly as his eyes gleamed.

It was as if simply speaking about her was making him feel proud and happy.

Viktor knew that there were certain groups of people who followed their own traditions and customs that may seem entirely different to the modern world.

But still, he was impressed by her classy dressing and her noble demeanor that exuded an air of matchless elegance.

It was obvious that she had been brought up under strict training while cultured with traditional values.

Viktor decided to have a look at her again and turned his neck around to see her even though he was pretty far from her by now.

And he saw her still standing on the same spot but was surrounded by a group of men and women who looked like her subordinates or attendants, each carrying weapons.

They all had their heads bent in respect as she continued to instruct them something. But suddenly, Nyissa looked in his direction as if knowing that someone was looking at her before looking away again.

Viktor narrowed his eyes and slightly shook his head as he turned around, feeling that this woman was shrouded in mystery and appeared intriguing.

"Why did she suddenly show up today if you said the Fujo Clan rarely makes an appearance? Is something going on here?" Viktor asked since, based on what Mijo said, something seemed out of the ordinary here.

Mijo also had the same question in mind, and in fact, he was thinking about it deeply as he walked, "I don't really know. What they do is beyond my understanding, nor are we worthy enough to know about the reasons for the various things they do."

As they started to walk up the hills, the other guides and the people following them also joined up since it was an organized tour with various checkpoints the guides had prepared beforehand.

However, Viktor heard certain footsteps behind and was surprised to see Nyissa and her people walking up the hill as well with slightly fast steps as if they wanted to catch up with the tourists.

Mijo was surprised to see them trying to join up with them, but he didn't say anything and kept a straight expression as he asked others to follow him.

Viktor saw that the few female attendants walking along with Nyissa were young as well or younger than their mistress and their beauties were all one in a million, looking as pretty and radiant as pink lilies.

And the girl walking right beside Nyissa was the prettiest among all the other girls, looking quite fierce but at the same time drop-dead gorgeous as well and as elegant as a fairy with shoulder-length silky black hair and light grey eyes that had a subtle, alluring charm.

There were some group of men in their late twenties laughing and cracking jokes as they walked, while their leering eyes landed on the women, especially the beauteous figure of Nyissa walking a certain distance ahead of them,

"Bro, did you take some pics of those chicks over there? I can't wait to jack off by looking at them, especially the one in the middle with the black veil, huhuhu."

"Nada bro! This oldie here told us no cameras allowed. What an old-fashioned guide. It's a pity. I really dig chicks with weapons. If she got rid of that boring dress, it would be perfect, hehe."

"Damn! These hottie's pics could have been a sensation if we uploaded them on SNS. Haaa, maybe we should ask her out for a quickie tonight, hehe."

Viktor inwardly scoffed, hearing their crass comments, and noticed how even the kind-looking Mijo's expression became dark for a moment as he clenched his fists. He observed the same changes in the other guides as well.

It was as if this group of men did something way worse than insulting Mijo's and his people's mothers.

Viktor could hear Mijo's teeth grinding against each other and realized that he underestimated how much the locals respect the Fujo Clan, especially the important members like Nyissa.

But when he looked at Nyissa, he didn't even notice a ripple in her eyes despite the fact that the voices of these men were audible enough for others around to hear them. She was still walking forward with elegant steps, and so did the people walking with her.

All of them had stern and tough expressions as if they were only concerned about the safety of their mistress and nothing else.

Some of the other tourists were disgusted by their comments and gave them certain looks though these young men weren't bothered at all and continued to laugh.

However, the young woman walking beside Nyissa frowned as she glanced at those young men and asked Nyissa with a bow, "Should I take care of them, Master?"

"Why feel bothered by the drivel of insects? Ignore bugs like these unless they try to bite us. That is how you will achieve clarity of mind, Ayana," Nyissa said in a tranquil tone, and Ayana didn't pay a glance in their direction anymore, taking the advice of her mistress to her heart.

Viktor inwardly nodded in appreciation, seeing how this woman's maturity and mentality were way beyond her age.

He was sure that if it was any other woman of her age, they would have surely at least shot a glare towards the men who talked dirty about them.

Still, he wondered what she and her people were doing here, walking along with them and why they were carrying weapons. It was as if they were prepared for something or that carrying weapons with them all the time was one of their practices, especially considering their clan's expertise.

Still, one of the young men who had luxurious sunglasses and a watch couldn't resist taunting the beauties just like his friends and quickly took out his mobile to take a pic, "Rules are meant to be broken, you idiots. Now watch me take a pic of their booties, huhuhu," He whispered to his friends who previously made the vulgar comments while making sure the guide before him won't notice.
