Chapter 976: CHAPTER 945 SHADOWSLASH DISCOVERY
He had only calmed down when the caravan eaters the city, he took a deep breath and walk towards the gate, using his ability to hypnotized beings, he easily passed through without the guards saying anything.
Looking around he felt that the people here are truly living like the people back on his old world, suddenly, he saw a child stealing an apple from a store and quickly made a run for it.
The furious store owner wanted to chase after the child but he was too slow, he could only grit his teeth in anger and slams his fist on the board.
Shadowslash was curious, according to his senses, the apples contains Mana and spirit Qi, this should help people cultivate the two energies but even after scanning the entire city, he hadn’t sensed any person emitting dense amount of spirit Qi like that of a cultivator.
‘Maybe I’ll find a more information if I interrogate that thief.’ He knows that a child shouldn’t have so much information.
Actually the reason why he picked the child because he wanted to learn the language of this world, besides, no one would search for the girl, he just hoped that she wouldn’t die when his divine sense invades her spiritual world.
Like a ghost, no one gave him any sort of attention, actually, they act like they couldn’t see him which is actually true, passing through the alley, he sort of expected what he would see.
.....
Dozens of individuals in rotten clothings are present, it seems that they are beggars, the place was extremely dirty with roaches and rats scattered almost everywhere.
The bustling scene of the city can no longer be seen and only the dark gloomy aura that pervades the place is present, Shadowslash wasn’t bothered by it.
Back on Thousand Forest Continent, the Undead Refining Ground that Sans have created before have become an underground market in the continent.
Numerous illegal products and activities were present there, the Thousand Race Empire turns a blind eye on this place because they had to let the people vent but whoever enters that place would always be on the watch list of the elves.
Even one criminal activity would lead them a long time in prison, they might be able to vent but only that place and no other place in the continent.
Passing through the beggars, he finally saw the child, he was being beaten by much larger children, they were jeering at him and taunting him and finally ate the apple in front of him.
He didn’t cry, he just grips his fist tightly and gritted his teeth as he looks at the children larger than him with anger and hatred.
Shadowslash didn’t do anything to help, it’s because he wanted to see the reaction of the child, upon seeing that he isn’t fighting back nor crying, the larger children walks away.
He follows him and was startled to find that the child was hiding two smaller children, he took out a loaf of bread and fed it to the two child.
‘How kind.’ He smiles and felt that it was his luck to find such an interesting individual, like a ghost, he appears behind him and disperse his illusion.
The child still hadn’t sensed him but the two smaller ones were shocked to see someone magically appearing right behind their older sibling.
They started trembling, the child finally sensed something wrong and turns back only to see Shadowslash smiling at him.
He was startled but before he could do anything, a voice could be heard inside his head ‘Child, do not be alarmed as I am bringer of great news.’
Even though he said this, the child didn’t lower his vigilance, he tried to protect the two smaller children, upon seeing this, Shadowslash couldn’t help but feel funny but he decided to be calm and gentle in his approach.
‘Child, I have discovered that your fate and mine are connected, open up yourself to me and I’ll change your destiny.’ Of course all of what he had said were all BS.
The child looks at his luxurious clothes and decided to bet everything on the line, since he cannot escape and doesn’t sense any bad intention coming from Shadowslash, he rather take this chance to escape this hellhole.
Shadowslash instantly use his divine sense to enter his spiritual world, looking at the memories of the child, he was a bit surprised to realised that he isn’t a boy, she is a girl but her aura exudes that of yang Qi.
He shook his head and started clearing his throat, he could finally speak this world’s language naturally, the little girl felt faint, he quickly let her rest and with a thought, he was about to put the three children to Earth when suddenly, he was given a great shock that he can’t access his own world.
His expression became solemn, he took a deep breath and decided to sign up as a mercenary, this world have a guild that functions as the Adventure Guild but a lot more efficient.
He knew that this world have high respect to mages and there aren’t a lot of mages working as a mercenary because they were too proud.
They look at other people like they are dirt, Shadowslash doesn’t have this personality against strangers but to his weak enemies, he would see them worst than dirt.
Grabbing the child and the other two children, he went to the market, while passing through numerous people, he smiles and took out silver and gold coins from his pockets.
He took them from people passing by, he took only those that were wearing luxurious clothes, of course, he change his form to an average looking individual with mercenary clothing.
He bought loafs of breads and fruits for the three children before going to an inn, upon seeing him bring three children, people look at him with disgust.
He doesn’t care about their look, he booked a room which the innkeeper reluctantly agreed, she looks at him like he is a piece of sh*t and he cannot blame her.
He told the three children to bathe themselves with the nearby well as he shut his eyes and stadted thinking.
He cannot access even his storage ring on this world, he knew that something strange is afoot on this world but he just can’t put a finger on it.
‘What the hell is going on this world.’ Just as he was in a deep thought, he felt that he should return to Gaia to ask Banjo since he felt that he would be able to help his brother obtain an enlightenment.
But he had to protect the three children first, he went down to the innkeeper and told her “I am going to leave my nephew and nieces to this inn, I’ll leave this amount of money, feed them thrice a day, I will return in a certain amount of time.”
He took out ten gold coins which startled the innkeeper, he then took one gold coin and started twisting it like it was tofu, the expression of the girl changes, she looks at him with reverence.
Strength is quite respected by this world, as long as you aren’t homicidal maniac, you would be respected as a great warrior.
She also realised that their first impression to him was wrong, hearing him calls the children his nephew and nieces, they had already thought that he was their uncle.
Mercenaries would always venture and took many different types of jobs, they had already made a story regarding his appearance and the three children’s appearance.
The story of an uncle finding his nephew or niece becoming an orphan isn’t strange but there is only a small amount of incident where the uncle decided to raise the children by himself.
As they saw him leave, the innkeeper continue smiling, Shadowslash who was rapidly flying back to the world gate turns at the island one last time before swimming back to Gaia.
Then, an unspeakable pain hits his entire body started writhing in pain, he was shocked, he quickly took out his Nascent Soul because he felt the pain is only affecting his physical body.
He looks at his body which is trying to repair itself, he became confused, fortunately, he cut off his connection to it or else he had to suffer the pain once more.
He could endure it but if there is a method not to feel this amount of pain, of course, he would rather pick it.
Suddenly, he got a message from Amethyst that thoroughly shaken him.
[Greetings my lord, you have been gone for ten days, I don’t know the exact reason why but I was trapped into Safehaven Paradise as the clone you have left on Blood World have disappeared.]
He cursed inwardly and told Amethyst to scan his body to find what is the problem.
[According to my data, your physical body is experiencing a temporal shock, according to this, you have went into a world that is entirely made up of different timeline.]
‘You mean like Time World on Safehaven Paradise?’
