The Urban Dao Child. Chapter 256
Advertisement
Yang Dao and Laohu Bai walked through the corridors and came to the courtroom. Glow was sitting on her white marble throne, however, the throne was very comfortable. The whole courtyard was white, with golden trimming all over the edges and corners. A few ministers also sat in the courtroom below the throne.
Their chairs were also made of white marble but they were half the size of that of Glow's A guard standing outside the courtroom spoke in a loud voice, "Child Of Chronicles seeks an audience with her majesty."
Actually, Yang Dao could have gone inside unannounced, but he did not want to undermine the queen in front of her people. This was equal to using his status to bully and humiliate the people. Thus, he asked the guard to announce. Glow and the rest of the ministers were surprised. They all stood up and Glow said, "Escort the Lord with due respect."
The guard outside bowed to Yang Dao as he followed them to the inside. He bowed to the queen and Glow said, "Did you not hear when you were told to not stop the Lord from going anywhere in the palace?"
She was angry, thinking that her soldiers and staff were irresponsible. A strong light emitted from her, making the guard tremble. Yang Dao said, "Your Majesty, this brother is not at fault. I just did not want to intrude rudely and asked him to announce my arrival."
Hearing his words, Glow calmed down and said, "Where am I the majesty in front of the lord? Please do not embarrass me, Lord." she was returning the face Yang Dao had given her.
The boy said, "Well, you are still the queen of the people, so you are majestic." the two people were brown-nosing each other. Glow asked, "I was wondering, why did the lord visit the courtroom?"

"To discuss something with you, your majesty. I wonder if it is a good time?" said Yang Dao.
The queen looked around and said to the ministers, "You all, please take a step. Since the lord wants to discuss this with me."
The people were all old and smart they understood that the matter they talked about next is not suitable for them to hear and thus they left silently. Actually, this was not his motive when he came inside, his gaze fell on a few people. These people made him feel repulsed. He recalled what he read in the chronicles, 'The Dao Child will be repulsed by those who side with selfish desires.
These people were all imbalanced in their souls. Thus, he changed his plan and first talked to Glow. Now that the people all walked out. Yang Dao said, "Your majesty, do you know that extreme light gives birth to darkness and the darkness can also give birth to the Light?"
Glow nodded and Yang Dao said, "Something like that is going on in this entire realm. What do you plan to do.?"
The queen asked him in confusion, "Lord, what do you mean?"
Yang Dao said, "The people in your courtroom had some imbalanced people among themselves." his words shocked the queen. She was a person who believed in the power of light. How can these people be imbalanced?
She asked, "Lord, how can that be possible?"
Yang Dao smiled and asked, "May I?" he extended his hand towards her. Glow did not know what he intended to do, but she placed her palm in his. The next moment, she could see how everything in the world emitted a slight glow.
Yang Dao said, "What you see is the light and the dark people have. Everyone in this world has balanced qualities. Now please take a note of how some people emit glow higher or lower than the rest. These people are called imbalanced.

To restore them to balance, one would need to either extinguish their wishes or make them wish for something. Only when people realize things by themselves, can they restore the balance within themselves, which will restore the world."
His words fell silent and Glow calmed down. She took back her hand and asked, "Lord, is there a way to make the people understand?"
Yang Dao sighed and said, "This will require further investigation. I can only hope that you take back the control of your people and also, order the military on the borders to a ceasefire. Do not attack the forces of the dark."
Glow nodded. She found nothing wrong with this proposal, but she asked, "Lord, whom should I trust?"
The context of this question was that she needed at least someone to help her. The boy said, "Call back your people."
Following his instructions, Glow called back the people. After a casual introduction, they all left. They were grateful that the Child Of Chronicles was interested in meeting them. Yang Dao took a few names. She asked, "Lord, why do you not call out Orion? Is he also imbalanced?" her voice was shivering.
Yang Dao sighed and said, "Yes. However, he can regain his balance if you can help him."
Glow was surprised by these words. She did not know what this handsome boy meant when he said this. She asked, "What do you mean, Lord?"
Yang Dao told her the true identity of Orion. The people of the light kingdom used a system for childbirth. Every pregnant lady will gather in a hospital. They have one such hospital in the whole kingdom, especially for childbirth. Even the royalty was no different. After giving birth to the child, the mothers will come back home alone, later the children will grow up in an institution that will treat them all fairly.
The children will receive an education based on their skills and talents. So it will ensure that every child is perfect in their job. This system would require sacrificing their own child, but after the children are fifteen years of age, they will be randomly allotted to families.
Suppose, if a child grows with medical skills, he or she will be fostered by a family of doctors. Not a lot of mothers were willing for such a sacrifice and thus this kept the population in control as well. It may be fate that Glow was assigned to her original family, but the queen's husband could never come in front of the people, as the queen of light was a maiden.
Loopholes and contradictory system policies caused this world to shift from the point of balance. The previous Dao Child never corrected the mistakes their predecessors made. Thus, Yang Dao took it by himself.

In Pursuit of Glory
I felt a huge physical force slam into my back. I didn't have any time to think as I rocketed into the wall and felt the drywall dent beneath my body. Eyes wide, I groaned and began to push off the wall when, unceasingly relentless, my assailant backstabbed me with a knife to my gut. I gasped; being stabbed there is no laughing matter. Even today, with all the advances of science, a wound like that can easily be mortal. Most likely would be. I gasped for air with a snarl, funneling the wind into my lungs to help them expand after being pancaked into the wall. Nobody f***ing backstabs me and gets away with it. If there’s one thing you should know about me, it’s that I love being alive. I love it more than anything else. It’s something only a dead person can understand, and I feel myself forgetting all the time. But there’s a secret to death, and I keep it with me. Always. It’s never permanent, it’s never peaceful, and it’s always filled with regrets. But death, despite all of its shortfalls, can give a short respite from life, like a comfy afternoon nap. Death is Respite. It’s a rest for the weary. And to all those people who wander in death lonesome and regretting their broken lives - always, without fail, cut too short - I beg them to take advantage of it. I tell everyone to take advantage of death, even when I can’t bring myself to do so. --- Ciaran travels the world in pursuit of Glories, unfathomable, power-bestowing balls of golden light sequestered in difficult-to-reach places. A fun fantasy romp with a character with an unorthodox narrative voice trying to find his purpose in the world.
