Stella with her clear silver eyes, found a clean spot on the ground before taking out a small carpet and placing it on the ground. After the carpet was laid out, she sat down on it while she got Nightin to sit opposite her "Hey,why are you still standing there? Go on and take a seat opposite of me, hehe."
Nightin shook his head as he slumped against the wall and slid down,his sword was placed beside him. Nightin sat down cross legged as he started to initiate the conversation "Hey Star,are you going to tell me the reason now?"
Stella broke out in laughter once again before she started to speak "Before I start talking about me and Gaven. I'll have to fill you in about Forgists and Charmists first."
In this world,there are various professions. These professions were divided into the nine great professions known to people.
Alchemists are the ones who form elixirs which are widely spread in the world,making it the highest ranked profession of the nine.
After Alchemists are array masters who can create many arrays which can be utilised in most situations. Be in in combat or support, they would definitely have a purpose to serve.
The third and fourth are known as the Forgists and Charmists respectively. Even though they are ranked below alchemists and array masters, one shouldn't underestimate their importance in the world of cultivation.
Forgists are well known for their ability to create mechanics and puppets. Out of all the nine professions, this profession is the one which stands out the most.
A Forgist is a profession which even mortals can learn. To the mortals,Forgists are known as mechanics or engineers. It's said that for a Forgist, realm will always be second compared to their life equipment. The stronger one's life equipment is,the higher their personal strength.
A life equipment is the strongest weapon which a Forgist would have crafted in his life, they would seal their life force together with it. The thing about the life equipment is that it can be changed as long as there's a stronger one in place of it.
As for a Charmist, they specialise in the making of charms, talismans and trinkets. All of them may seem simple, but the production cost and effects are definitely worth it.
Charms can be used to create illusions and trick their enemies or used to assist their ally giving them a increase in strength.
Talismans are items which can only be used once. They are usually used for escape or sometimes to form up a communication in the dark.
As for trinkets, they are something like small accessories and can benefit a cultivator immensely. Such as increasing their wisdom slightly or speeding up their cultivation speed. Trinkets may be the most useful item to own for any cultivator, but they're extremely rare and can never be found on the market.
As for the other five great professions,they are known as...
Nightin finished listening to Stella's explanation as he posed a question towards her "Star,I understand what you're trying to say. But what does this have to do with you and Gaven being a couple?"
Stella smiled as she turned her head towards the tunnel, presumably looking for traces of Gaven. Taking out a charm,she told Nightin "This is a charm which me and Gaven have done together,both of us have one each."
Nightin was puzzled, it's understandable why a Charmist and Forgist would work together with each other,but what does this have to do with them breaching the rules between races to become a couple?
Stella laughed, seemingly mocking herself for her own foolishness "This token is both a trinket and a mechanic. Both Gaven and me have the ability to teleport towards each other and access the mind of the other person easily. To put it simply, telepathy is what it gives us and it also have various functions. With just the functions alone,even taking the life of a Martial Saint is possible,hehe.
A tinge of disappointment could be seen on Stella's face even though she hid it quickly, it's pretty obvious that she felt guilty towards Gaven. Because of her race and existence,Gaven had cut off his ties with the outside world and resided here with her. She may a demon,but she's kind by nature.
Even though there are countless of kind demons who have never harmed humans in the outside world, cultivators have never spared them. In this world, humans themselves might even be more ruthless and cruel than the demon beasts.
Stella brushed her guilt off as she faced Nightin again. The sudden hidden attractiveness Stella showed Nightin had forced him to avert his gaze away,he doesn't want to fall into a trance again.
Stella sighed once again as she placed her left hand on her knee and rested her face on it. "No matter where we go, we'll always be discriminated against,hehe." Her dejection could be heard from her small laughter.
Nightin felt pity for her,yet there was nothing he could do. At this moment however,a brazen thought arose in his mind. Nightin abruptly asked Stella "Star,is there by any chance that you and Gaven could join my sect?"
Stella froze as she crawled toward and stared at him with the eyes of curiosity like a cat. "You are kidding me right?"
Nightin looked at her seriously and said once again "I hereby request for you and Gaven to join my sect."
Stella blinked and backed out before getting back into her previous seductive posture while saying "Aren't you afraid that I might hook your disciples up? As for joining your sect, I'm afraid we would have to reject that offer. Me and Gaven have already been accustomed to a life of our own,we wouldn't want to get involved with the outside world."
Nightin nodded and kept silent,as he fell back and slump against the wall once again. Raising his head to look at the ceiling...
Back in the Nirvana sect, Isabella who was in charge of the sect when Nightin was away,stood at the mountain peak as she asked the group below "What's your identity and what the hell is with those numbers? Ars you trying to start a war!" Her curiosity gradually got overtaken by her anger as she shouted at the mysterious group.
The leading man in front was the family head of the Gale family,of the lower branch. The man was known as Civar Gale as he stepped out, holding a scroll in his hand.
The man patted the dust off his robe and pulled down his hoodie to reveal his face,the stranger had good facial features with sharp eyebrows,clear black eyes and a short brown overhead haircut.
The person took out a scroll as he told Isabella "Miss,may I know where your sect master Nightin is at? I'm here to assist his sect after receiving his orders, do grant me the permission to seek an audience with him. Finishing,he threw the scroll towards Nightin.
"Swoosh!" The scroll flew through the air as Isabella caught it easily with one hand,the other still holding her bow in shooting stance.
Pulling the scroll open,a list of words started to appear before her eyes: Isabella,when you read this message,treat them with respect and give them somewhere to build their own residences quickly.
Before Nightin had left,he made a trip to the Gale family before heading on his way towards the Moss forest. This scroll right now was definitely written by him, his spiritual signature was still on it.
The spiritual signature is something which can't be changed throughout a person's life and the colour and style is greatly influenced by the growth and element of the person.
Isabella kept her bow as she told the two disciples guarding the gate to let the visitors in. Isabella then called for a few disciples to lead the guests to the guest hall as she made her way there.
When Isabella arrived,the group had already sat down. The remaining members were all standing behind as they awaited further orders from their family head.
The family head, Civar Gale was the one to initiate the conversation, he was the side who was meant to assist them after all. "I'm here to assist your sect in its development after receiving orders from the pride of my Gale family, your sect master Nightin."
Not a single tinge of excitement or happiness could be seen on Isabellas face,to everyone present,she didn't really care about this agreement.
Deep down Isabella's heart however,she was thinking out loud to herself "Haha,with the assistance of the Gale family, our sect will have proper grounds and shops to sell our elixirs. Good connections with the neighbouring lands which help us to bring in great trades as well. We'll have...
A wave of thoughts were racing around in Isabella's head as she gradually calmed her mind down and told the newly promoted core disciple beside her "Bring our guests to the land which we've proposed to give them. I'll meet them shortly after I'm done with some trivial matters."
The disciple bowed and replied "Yes." As she walked down the steps and suggested for the guests to follow her.
