…
After running for a while, Xin Ja stopped on top of a tall tree and slumped on one of its branches. He could feel his body feeling a bit tired, but he dare not show it in front of those people.
While healing the young woman's wounds, he heard the group talking and they seem to be regarding him as a young expert. Though he did not know the reason why, yet his young heart feel a bit elated upon hearing that.
He feels like he suddenly became the young hero of one of the stories in the books he has read when he was young.
But if people knew of his powerlessness, then he knew that they would just mock him again. So acting like an expert in front of others made him feel a bit weird and special at the same time.
"Young expert… It has a nice ring to it… Hehe…" he muttered as he rested on the tree branch and began absorbing the chaotic Ki in the air..
The battle a while ago has consumed a lot of his Ki while controlling the runes, so he needed to replenish his Ki before returning.
"Once I return those people would be there anymore, right?" he thought.
"No… If I return to that place now, then they might still be there. But… But what about those trapped beasts? Oh, no!" Xin Ja suddenly realized that he seem to have forgotten the beasts that were trapped in his rune formations.
"Those people would touch them, right? I mean I helped them, they would not be that shameless, right?" he thought as he suddenly stood up.
Those beasts are his practice beast. The reason why he trapped them is for him to gain more experience in battles.
An hour later, he slowly opens his eyes.
However, what he saw almost made him fall off the branch. Right in front of him is a huge head of a snake looking at him with a curious gaze.
"Ah!" Xin Ja cried.
The snake was also startled when it saw the human cry out and it quickly hid among the thick leaves of the tree.
Xin Ja was a bit taken aback but was curious why the snake did not attack him. In fact, even though he has his eyes closed and is absorbing Ki, his senses are active and are feeling his surroundings. If he feel killing intent, he would immediately spring into action.
But the snake seems to be just observing him.
He looks at the bushes and saw the two green glowing eyes looking at him.
"Come out… I won't hurt you…" Xin Ja said.
The bushes moved and it seems that the snake seem to be chuckling.
"You… hurt me… Hiss? I'm just afraid that I would scare you instead..." the snake said with a hint of amusement in its tone.
"You… you can talk?" Xin Ja was a bit taken aback upon hearing the hissing words of the snake. And it seems that it knows the common language.
"Hiss… Of course, I can… I am the queen of this part of the forest, so of course, I can talk." She said as her head appears from within the bushes.
"The queen? I never heard of that before?"
"Hiss… Well, of course, you would not. I am not inclined to interact with humans…"
"Hmm… But you're talking to me now?"
"Hihi… Hiss… You are… different. In fact, a year ago I already noticed your presence in my territory. I observed you from afar, and noticed something peculiar about you… You are not like any human I have seen."
"Really? Why is that?" Xin Ja asked feeling a bit proud.
"Because… you are the weakest human I have ever seen… Hiss…"
Xin Ja was a bit taken aback and was a bit hurt by those words. Yet he could not deny it.
"However… although you are weak, and yet you are able to defeat, those that are stronger than you… very peculiar indeed… Hiss…"
"Well, I am only pretending to be weak you know. That way, I can easily defeat my opponent…"
"Hmm… And one more thing… Why do you spare the lives of some of the beasts you defeated? It makes no sense at all. Since you defeated them, then you should claim their life, right?"
"Ohh… That… I mean… Yeah, I could. But senseless killing would surely have an adverse effect on the ecosystem of the forest, right?"
The snake suddenly stops talking as it seems to be thinking. It then chuckled and slowly left.
Xin Ja noticed that the skin of the snake seems to be able to change its color according to where it is crawling. It made him think that the creature is truly unique.
"I leave for now weak human… I hope that we could see each other again… You have truly piqued my interest… Hiss…" the snake said as its voice vanished in the darkness.
Xin Ja did not know what just happened but he heaves a sigh of relief that the snake is not hostile towards him. He knew that if the snake would truly make its move then he would surely die. This is because his strange vision is giving him a power level that says… immeasurable.
…
Xin Ja decided to go back and see what those people would do with the beast that was trapped.
This made him pout. He feels like someone just touched his favorite toy without telling him.
"Why did those guys kill the beasts?…" he thought with a frown.
Then he saw two young men walking towards the group beside the tent he erected.
"We have killed the last of it… this way the camp of the senior would not be infested by any monsters. This would be our way of paying back what we owed him…" the burly guy said with a smile on his face.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Xin Ja's mouth was agape upon hearing this. He did not expect that those guys would think like so. He did not want them to kill those beasts… he wanted them to leave immediately.
"Those ungrateful bastards…" Xin Ja pouted as he saw the corpses inside the rune arrays.
"Payback your head! I want you all to leave!" Xin Ja scolded the group in his mind, yet he dare not show himself.
Thinking about being with a group of people made him feel shivers running down his spine. He is truly not comfortable with that idea at all.
And so, he gave the camp a last glance and with a heavy heart, he left the place and go back to the town.
…
Upon arriving at the town's gate, Xin Ja easily scaled the walls and quietly sneak inside the town and run towards their manor. He has been doing this multiple times already for a year, so he is already accustomed to sneaking in and out of the town.
Upon arriving in the manor, he quickly and quietly enters his own room.
As he closes the door quietly, he heaves a sigh of relief. And turn around while taking off his black cloak and huge bag on his back.
When he was about to take off his robe, he noticed a figure sitting by his bed.
Xin Ja was immediately frozen into place.
His mind has completely blanked out as he quickly thinks of ways on what to do next. In his mind, he quickly formulated many excuses and reasons that he could say to excuse himself from this kind of situation.
He even thought of sleepwalking as an excuse to explain the reason why he is out. There is also the reason that he was possessed by a ghost. In his mind right now all of those excuses that he thought of before quickly enter and he began choosing which one he would tell.
The reason for this is simple. This is because the person in front of him is no other than his own… father.
As of this moment, he could see black lines appearing on his father's face while his cold eyes are looking straight at him. He knew that he had messed up somewhere, but he could not think where.
No matter how much he thinks about it, he could not get how his father was able to discover his action. He was even able to break the rune array he left in his bed which would show that he is quietly sleeping.
As he looks back at the cold gaze of his father, Xin Ja could not help but suck in a mouthful of air.
"How long have you been doing this?" that was the first question that left his father's mouth which made Xin Ja unable to answer.
All of the elaborate excuses he prepared in his mind were all turned blank as he subconsciously looks into his father's eyes.
From what he could see… he knew that his secret is now out of the bag.
