…
Two days have passed since Shin Jiao stayed at Jason Mirk's home. He learned a lot of crucial information about this Land of Death from the mage and knew of its current situation.
It seems that from the time that the war in the kingdom ended, the forces which worship the dark god Ruel were thwarted with their leaders either being hunted or already killed. The rest are banished to the outer world where they are right now.
The cities towns and villages outside of the kingdom's territory are called the outer world. And in this place is where the influence of the light worshiper of the god Agus is evident. Due to their being exiled hundreds of years ago after being defeated by the dark forces of the god Ruel, the light worshipers of the god Agus have been staying in the outer world. And because of this, their strength grew to so much that they were able to defeat the dark forces.
However, the light worshipers knew that the darkness would soon conquer the Outer World just like they did before and then gain power from there. But that would take hundreds of years, so the forces of the light are not worried.
This insane cycle has been going on for thousands of years to no end. And it has taken millions of lives in the name of the two warring gods of light and darkness.
And because of their influence, men never learn and continue in this cycle of folly, greed, and destruction.
So after he learned about this, Shin Jiao has now a firm grasp of the situation in this Land of Death or the Xinglo kingdom.
But what he is curious about are the two gods. He wanted to know who they are and what their purpose is. In his conjecture, those two gods might be powerful Saint Rulers who are playing god outside of this land.
They might be really bored and just wanted to play with the lives and the souls of the people in this world.
He also thought about the souls of the dead. The cycle of birth and death in this land is weird. No living being could exist without a soul, so in his opinion, he already knew that the souls of the people in this world are being recycled over and over.
And the experiences of those people are being gathered by the two gods to strengthen themselves and grow ever more powerful as they continue playing with this game.
Shin Jiao could not deny the ingenious thinking of those two gods. He is familiar with the life cycle and knew already met a god from the earth.
But that deity is very protective of his own children and never wanted them to struggle too much, thus making it easier for everyone to reach immortality after their deaths as a mortal.
And as a father, those who obey him would receive greater rewards and those who disobeyed would be punished for their misdeeds.
However, since Shin Jiao was summoned to another world, his connection to the god was cut and he now belongs to those who needed to struggle to reach true immortality and join the war against the Shadow Beings.
Thinking up this point, Shin Jiao truly wanted to meet those two gods and try to learn about the secret of the Land of Death. This way, he could also do the same thing in his small world and give life to the souls he would be able to produce as soon as he reaches the deity level with the help of his soul essence.
…
It was already 5 in the evening when Shin Jiao heard some knocking on the door. A very beautiful woman came inside and showed a faint smile upon seeing that Shin Jiao has already changed his clothes.
He now looks like a proper mage with his gray cloak and a mage's robe inside. He wore no emblem or any trinket but still exudes a majestic aura around him. Seeing Shin Jiao, Nariz Gumal showed a faint smile as she truly admires his handsome and mature appearance.
"We are ready to go…" she said.
"Alright, thank you… I'm already done…" Shin Jiao said as he walks to the door.
They hop on the carriage of Jason Mirk and the group soon arrives in front of a luxurious Manor with many carriages already in line as well-known guests started coming from everywhere, even in the nearby villages.
When they alighted from the carriage, a couple who just are waiting in line noticed them.
"Hey, if it isn't Jason Mirk… What caused you to come out of your lair my friend…" the middle-aged man greeted Jason with a happy smile on his face.
From the looks of it and the way Jason Mirk smiles at the man, one could tell that they are friends.
"Haha… I'm just a low-level alchemist and needed a lot of training, so I decided to get some fresh air."
"Haha… That's good, I heard that you receive the invitation from High Mage Emil… man you are lucky. Well, for me, I just hope that my son would be able to be accepted even as an apprentice…"
"I heard that your son is a talented mage, why are you not that confident?" Jason asked with a knitted brow.
He has met the son of his friend before, an energetic and a little naughty young boy of 9 years of age. It is rumored that Fabio Mur's son, Mario Mur, has learned how to conjure Chaotic Wind, a technique for 1st level mages, at the age of 8. And since then, he is considered a genius in the village.
But Jason has not heard of any news about this after that. As if the genius young boy suddenly disappeared. And now learning that the child Mario Mur is going to be present in this event, Jason Mirk wanted to see his friend's son the more.
"Sigh… He is talented… but there was an accident. He… it seems that his ability…" Fabio Mur did not continue and his wife beside him bit her lips feeling a bit dejected.
"What happened?" Jason Mirk is now curious and wanted to know.
If he can he would help this longtime friend of his.
"It's nothing… It's just that I… I cannot help my child even with my talent in magic alchemy." Fabio Mur said while looking at his callous hands.
Jason Mirk knew that things are not that simple as they look. But he could not pry in this matter any deeper, so he just patted the shoulder of his friend.
"Cheer up, since he is here in this event, then there might be a way for him to pass… Oh… by the way, I almost forgot." Jason Mirk suddenly realized that there are people behind him and showed an apologetic look towards Shin Jiao.
"This is Master Shin and his companions…" Jason Mirk introduced.
Shin Jiao decided that Jason Mirk could just call him Master Shin, or Master Jiao. He felt a bit weird if he is called Mage Shin, as he is not actually a mage but an immortal cultivator.
Though he could use mana, he also knew how to use two other types of energy besides mana, the universe's energy, and Qi.
Plus he is already used to people calling him Master Shin, so he wanted for him to be called as such. Calling him by name like what Luna does would be preferable for him though, yet he knew that in this world, that is not possible.
With a nod of his head, Shin Jiao acknowledge Fabio Mur.
"Nice to meet you, Master Shin…" Fabio greeted while extending his hand for a shake.
Shin Jiao did not hesitate to shake Fabio's hands. But as soon as their hands touched, his interest was immediately piqued.
This is because he suddenly noticed that inside of Fabio's body there is a trace of a curse. Shin Jiao has not seen this type of curse before, plus he is not that proficient with curses. He knew that some cultivator's uses curse to fight and cultivate, but he has not encountered such a thing that looks like the one in the body of Fabio Mur.
He wanted to check it more, but this is not the right place, so he could just wait for a time to learn more about it.
Meanwhile, Fabio Mur discovers the changes in Shin Jiao's expression before returning to normal. That did not escape his scrutinizing gaze and immediately knew that the man seems to have noticed something. Since it is not the right time and place to talk about it, he just reminded himself to visit Jason's shop and ask the man what he has noticed.
For some time now he truly suspected that he has something to do with what had happened to his son, but he could not put his finger on it. He even tried to look for other mages but they are unable to determine what really is wrong with his son.
However, if his conjecture is correct and the man in front of him could truly help him, then he would not hesitate. He is willing to pay the price just to return the taken talent of his son.
Soon the group enters the manor and saw many rich and powerful people mingling together.
Shin Jiao feels a bit weird because as soon as they enter this place, the two beautiful women behind him already caught the eyes of many people in the crowd.
