While Xiao Qiangwei entered the Second Nirvana, Sora sighed and said.
Sora: Hey Shiro… Who would have thought that Qiangwei was a cultivator…
Shiro: ...Nn… It is incredible that he hid it for so many years…
Steph: Hey Sora, what did you mean with your last question?
Sora: What question?
Steph: The one you asked to Qiangwei, about becoming a god.
Sora: Oh, that… Well, in some stories in our world cultivators always had the chance to become gods if they train enough, so I wanted to ask if Qiangwei could do the same.
Steph: Wait, wait, wait… "Our world", what does that mean?
Sora and Shiro looked at each other, this would be a bit hard to explain… Then Sora just turned toward Steph and said in a straightforward manner.
Sora: We are from a different world.
The atmosphere became so silent you could hear a pin drop in the floor.
[Later]
After Steph calmed down from the sudden revelation, she was asked from Sora and Shiro to come in a library for knowledge. They arrived there and checked the books, but there was something wrong…
Sora: Hey, Steph…
Steph: Hmm? What is it?
Sora: ...The common language of this country, it isn't Japanese?
Steph: Japanese? I don't quite understand, but the language used for the human species is Human Language.
Sora: Whoa.... A really super, straightforward world. Alright, can you answer a few questions for me?
Steph: Okay, that's not a problem.
Sora put up a serious face and asked.
Sora: Yesterday, when I groped your chest, you had no resistance, so why did you hit me when I tried to flip your skirt, just why- Okay, okay, I'll be serious, that was just a joke…
Sora calmed Steph down when she started to give a penetrating gaze to him and asked another question.
Sora: I often hear the words Human race, so what are the other Races then?
Steph: ...Is there only the human race in Sora's world?
Sora: Well, it should be, but now that I found out that my only friend is something that comes only from the legends I am starting to doubt it.
Steph thought about how should she explain it, and some dozen of seconds later she opened her mouth.
Steph: Firstly, do you know about God's words?
Sora: How the Ten Pledges came into being? We heard it from some choir group by the fountain not too long ago.
Steph: I understand… Then… *Cough* *Cough* The so-called Races, for which the Ten Pledges were laid down for, are the intellectual Exceed.
With the Ten Pledges as the basis, the rights to encroach, violate, destroy, and mutually kill for the Exceed, were taken away, and the result was, war disappeared from this world.
Sora: ...I see, and I was originally wondering where would the food come from, but it turned out that the Pledges were only limited to intellectual life.
Steph: However, let's see, using games to determine ongoing wars, which are also territorial battles, "Gambling for the country". Even as we speak, someone would most likely be playing this sort of game.
Sora: ...The human race's country is only left with Elchea, right?
Steph sighed and said.
Steph: ...Currently, it is indeed true… Even though it was not said that other races would have only one country, bout for the human race, we are only left with Elchea.
Sora: So if there is no war, why fight for territory? Can't interlocution solve anything?
Steph: ...Guu, that-
Before Steph could continue, Shiro interrupted.
Shiro: Resources are limited…. As long as continuous propagation is infinite… Sharing will also be limited…. Leading to common demise.
Steph hurriedly nodded and agreed.
Steph: Y-Yeah, just like that!
Sora: ...You… Didn't even consider that before, right…
Steph: Wh-Wh-What are you saying, this type of thing!
Sora: Whatever, what kind of specific races are there in the Exceed?
Steph hummed while counting numbers using her fingers, it seems as if she couldn't give many informations.
Steph: Below only God, the first is the Old Deus, then the second is the Phantasma, number three is the Elementals… There are also the Dragons and Giants... Elf and Werebeasts, erm… And so on.
Sora: What are the number placings for?
Steph: Uh, that. I am not so sure myself, but it seemed to be some sort of ranking sequence.
Sora: ...Ranking sequence?
Steph: Un, un. To say it simply, the level of their adaptive magic, which was what I heard.
Sora got some doubts and asked.
Sora: Steph… Did you receive education?
Steph seemed offended and replied back.
Steph: First things first, I did. I did graduate from college, okay?! And about this ranking sequence, there was nothing to research about humans… Because we are number 16… Which means that our magic adaptive level is 0. It couldn't be observed no matter how hard you research about it
Sora: ...0? Wait, humans can't use magic?
Steph: Yes… We can't even sense it…
Sora sighed and continued to learn about the language of the humans.
Sora: Then, how would Qiangwei placed?
Steph: I can't answer that, but I can tell that if what he said is true, then he is over the Werebeasts and some other races.
Sora: Alright…
[Later]
After Steph took some tea to Sora and Shiro, she walked towards the guest room, where Xiao Qiangwei was, to give him a cup of tea too.
She knocked the door, but nothing could be heard, so she tried to slowly open the door, and when she looked at Xiao Qiangwei, she immediately let fall the cup of tea and screamed in fear before closing the door.
Sora and Shiro heard her from the library and hastily walked to see what happened, and found Steph using the wall as a support, her face was really dark and sweat was coming out from her forehead.
Sora: Hey Steph, what is happening?
While Sora was trying to help Steph, Shiro walked towards the door where Xiao Qiangwei should be, and looked inside, when she seen Xiao Qiangwei, she immediately closed the door and retreated immediately with a look of fear in her face.
Steph: Q-Q-Qiangwei… He's dead…
Sora's eyes widened and opened the door, then he found Xiao Qiangwei, he looked like a corpse meditating, there was not even a sign of life.
Sora panicked and immediately walked to Xiao Qiangwei to check his pulse, but didn't found none, he thought he was dead, when he remembered Xiao Qiangwei's last words, and sighed.
Sora: He's not dead… He's trying to break through the next realm… Tomorrow he should be alright and stronger than before, this must be one of the tribulations he was talking about.
Steph and Shiro sighed in relief, then they left the room, leaving Xiao Qiangwei where he was, and started to talk about some other things.
[Tomorrow]
Yesterday, Sora and Shiro participated in the tournament to become the king of the country, and challenged the black haired girl that cheated against Steph, Chlammy Zell, and now, they were waiting for a certain person to come.
Steph: Who are we waiting for?
Sora: For the key of our victory…
Steph: Key?
Shiro: ...Yes… Soon he will come…
Steph: Who will co-
She was interrupted when a small gust of wind came past the group, but that little wind carried a eerie feeling that made Steph gasp.
Everyone turned to the direction where the wind came from, and found a man coming, it was Xiao Qiangwei, he was smiling, and looked like nothing really happened…
He reached the Immortal Senses stage, and entered the Nine Immortal Cycles.
Xiao Qiangwei finally arrived to them and opened his mouth.
Xiao Qiangwei: Yo, how are you guys?
Sora: We are ok, but we need your help with something…
Xiao Qiangwei frowned and his palm slammed in his own face.
Xiao Qiangwei: Alright, what the fuck did you do?
Sora: I just challenged a girl to be the king of the human race.
Xiao Qiangwei raised his eyes and made eye contact with Sora, he lowered his hand and asked.
Xiao Qiangwei: ...Continue…
And then Sora, Shiro and Steph told him what happened while he was cultivating, in 5 minutes they would meet with the challenger who will take them to the place where the game will start.
Xiao Qiangwei heard about a plan that Sora thought, knowing what the game will be thanks to the challenger's knowledge that she shared with them, and he smiled.
Hello guys, here is another chapter, I want to ask something and before saying it, after I finished Nine Tailed System I will make Billy's novel, with Akame Ga Kill…
But, is there any anime or manga where I could put an MC with the ability to become the Armored Titan? Where he would not be too op but he is stronger than others.
Comment, put PS, review and bye.
