Chapter 151 Royal Luna

Present Timeline,

Irene's room, The Leeway's Castle.

"You are most probably… indirectly related to the Queen of Lunas."

Linda and Irene looked at me with a stunned look before Irene spoke,"you are lying… right?!"

I then sighed before speaking,"honestly, I don't even know about it myself. In a way, it is good news, in another way it is bad news… though it depends on how you look at it."

Hearing my words, both Linda and Irene looked at me with a confused expression and I began explaining it to her.

"Because you have that particular pattern, I can give you a very special method, that's exclusively for Lunas with that pattern, to train. It won't just help you advance to the top, but someday maybe you can even surpass Mark… though that still depends how well you can take it."

"What?!!!" Linda shouted in bewilderment and Irene had the same expression as they both couldn't believe my words, though Irene turned really excited after that as she couldn't contain her smile, but before she could speak anything I continued,

"And the bad news is…" I saw their expressions change as they stopped smiling and looked at me while I continued,"...that the Luna or perhaps the Royals of Luna who sometimes venture into human society, will end up finding you. That once again takes us to two different routes… one is that you are really a Luna and they will find out about your origin, which will pull you into their country for god knows how long.

The other is that you may not really be a Luna but somehow got this pattern, less likely to happen, but if it does, you will be kept captive there for an eternal time of experimentation."

Hearing my words, a horrified expression marred her pretty face, which made her think twice whether to take this chance.

"There is actually another way, and that is to use a method used by normal Lunas, but that would limit your growth by at least 10 times… so what will you choose?"

Hearing the second option, she turns a bit more relaxed, but then she sighed as she let her body fall against the bed before she turned to Linda and said,"What should I choose?"

Linda, who understood most of the situation, turned to me before asking,

"Do you have any way to protect Irene from the Lunas if she chooses the first option?"

'She really is quick to catch on the important things,' I smiled as I nodded before speaking.

"But that is going to cost you more than what you can afford."

'Going against a Luna is no joke,' I thought as I sighed before I heard,"Does it really have to be Irene to pay the price or I can do something in exchange for you helping her out?"

Linda was really determined right now, which made me question,"what do you mean by that?"

"I mean that is it okay for me to be a part of the deal in exchange for Iren-" She was repeating the same thing and I stopped her before speaking,"I understood that. What I am asking is, what can you give me?"

She looked at me for a few moments before looking at Irene and then sighing as she spoke.

"Irene. Since I am going to do this for you, you better do something for me as well," before she took a really long sigh again.

'Looks like she is still contemplating before deciding what she is going to do,' I thought as I looked at her making a troubled expression before finally muttering,"all right.. Whatever happens, I will leave it to fate," and then proceed to take out something from her space pocket.

It was a small silver artefact with a green gem embedded in it. I looked at it for a few moments and then I heard Linda speaking,"this is a-"

"A portal to the Netherrealm," I said subconsciously as I was immersed in observing the artefact before looking at the confused expressions of Linda and… I made a mistake by saying that, didn't I?

"Ummm… what were you saying?" I tried to change the topic but,"No.. You were saying something… Netherrealms?" Linda caught on me and I sighed at my stupid mouth running off on its own before speaking,

"You first."

She looked at me for a few moments before hurriedly speaking,"It is a space eraser that will hide your presence no matter from where. Now you, what did you just say?"

I kind of sighed before speaking,"It opens a gate to the Netherrealm. Though you can only exit or enter it if you are… undoubtedly strong and weak ones can only stand in front of the gate ranging from a few minutes to hours based on their power levels."

"How strong?" she asked, again catching the most important point of my words and I smiled before speaking,"very very strong."

She narrowed her eyes at me before looking at the artifact and then said,"can I have that back?"

But I just put it in my pocket as I spoke,"it is not safe with you… get strong and I will return it back to you safely. I guess I can keep it with me till then."

She glared at me before taking a deep sigh as she pondered over and over for the next few minutes before speaking,"all right… you can keep it. I feel like I have lost a lot of things, but I guess it's worth it in exchange for what I am probably gaining."

I looked at her and then at the portal before speaking,"where did you get it?"

She looked at me before speaking,"can you tell me what kind of place Netherworld is?" and I sighed before speaking,

"Guess we both get to keep our secrets, I suppose."

She made a small smile and nodded before speaking,"Since all that was said and done, can you help her out of her predicament?"

I looked at Linda for a few minutes, wondering what was going on in her mind before I put that thought in the back of my mind as I spoke,"Sure."
