Chapter 200 Suprise

Chapter 200 Suprise

Rin breathed a sigh of relief at the old man's departure. She then pulled Ciel to her side and smiled faintly.

At the same time, Roxanne approached them, still carrying her sword.

She stared back and forth between Rin and Ciel.

Unlike Rin, she did have an indifferent personality so even to Ciel, she showed no particular expression.

"Why did you two come here?" she asked, looking at Rin. "You should return to the Ice Continent. You know, there might be a Supreme God interested in those two Flames."

"Come on Sister Roxanne, we're here on vacation," Rin replied with a faint smile. "Little Brother Ciel is quite exhausted after fighting all day, he needs a good place to recover."

In front of Roxanne, Rin only dared to say that they had come to relax, not to do anything strange. Perhaps she was also worried about Roxanne getting angry.

Roxanne looked at Rin with an unsure expression and then looked at Ciel.

After that, she shook her head.

"You can relax here, but don't make any noise or I'll kick you out myself," she said before taking a step back into the giant cloud.

She disappeared in an instant.

Rin laughed after she left and said, "Sister Roxanne is quite fierce, but she's a good woman, she always helps no matter what happens."

Rin took a step after saying that, but she did not stop talking.

"Uhmmm, do you dare tease her?" she asked.

"Sister Rin, is this a suggestion?" Ciel asked back.

"Yes, it is a suggestion, I will call you big brother if you can conquer Sister Roxanne's heart," Rin replied.

Ciel almost coughed at that.

With a wry smile, he replied, "No, no, I'd rather be your little brother than your big brother. As for Sister Roxanne, let fate decide."

For strangers, Ciel could probably use the Eyes of Heaven to search for their disgrace and then threaten them.

However, he would need to think about it if he did that to a woman who was already basically connected to him like Roxanne.

Although her attitude was rather indifferent, she was indeed quite kind. If he wanted to win her heart, he would use the right means.

Not long after, they finally arrived in front of the giant cloud.

It could be easily entered, there wasn't anything standing in the way.

It was just that the cloud was very wide indeed. After entering it, it still took a while to pass through.

Rin moved slowly as if she wanted Ciel to be surprised.

When he finally passed through the cloud, Ciel was indeed very surprised.

"No way," he said spontaneously.

What he found ahead was something completely different from this world of cultivation.

He saw a city full of skyscrapers with shiny lights, flying cars, and people walking with suitcases in their hands.

This was a modern world, of course, like earth, but far more advanced than earth.

Ciel didn't see people riding Beasts like the other cultivator cities. They were all driving vehicles with engines.

The only thing that looked like a cultivation world was the beach where many arks from outside docked.

Naturally, every one of the outsiders who came for the first time was also very surprised, as if they were seeing a new world.

"Nice, isn't it?" said Rin to Ciel, thinking that Ciel's surprise was because he was seeing a strange place.

Calmly, she explained. "Actually, this is not part of the Seven Realms. In the past, this cloud passed outside the Seven Realms, was taken by the Supreme Gods, and they found a different land inside. Since there was no particular threat, they allowed this land to remain in the Seven Realms, even later teaching its inhabitants to cultivate because they couldn't cultivate before. Sister Roxanne was of course one of the natives of this land. In fact, it is as vast as the Ice Continent with many kingdoms within it."

"Sister Rin, do you know where this land comes from?" asked Ciel hurriedly, thinking that this might lead him to earth even though he personally didn't care much about earth since his life here was already great.

Rin shook her head as she replied, "no one knows including the natives. After all, previously they were all mortal humans while probably many years passed before they were discovered. Their past history seems to have been lost."

"But what about the records hidden underground? Do they not exist?" asked Ciel.

"Sister Roxanne has done a lot of investigation without finding anything. In fact, she thinks that it's a place separated from a world, and when it was separated, every record seems to have been deliberately removed," Rin replied. "Most people just conclude that it's the remains of a destroyed civilization, race, or clan. They were sent to a distant place for the sake of sustainability, nothing more than that. Something like this can be said to be common even in the Seven Realms, and obviously in the vast universe it is the same."

Having said all that, Rin gave Ciel a strange look.

"Little Brother, why do you seem so concerned with the origin of this land?" she asked, growing suspicious.

In any case, the attitude displayed by Ciel had been rather strange ever since he saw this land.

Ciel was forced to clear his throat before he replied, "I'm just curious!"

"Don't think too much about it," Rin said, as if she immediately believed what he said.

"Let's go down," she added before pulling him to the shore of the land.

When landing there, Ciel really felt like he was back in the modern world as long as he didn't look at the people wearing old-fashioned clothes.

He and Rin pretty much matched the clothes of the people there as they were wearing shirts, trousers, and skirts. Plus, the designs of their clothes were not old-fashioned at all, more towards fantasy with advanced fashion.

"Hey, do you guys need a taxi?" Someone shouted to them as they entered the street, making Ciel feel even more nostalgic.

This was truly a modern life where mortals worked in a modern way, unlike the mortals in other regions who lived an ancient life.

Rin waved her hand, signaling that she refused.

She seemed to just want to walk away.

And when she reached the street, her hand wrapped around Ciel's, giving Ciel a gentle sensation.

"Sister Rin, where are we going?" asked Ciel as he looked at the buildings around.

It looked peaceful despite the many cultivators from outside. Apparently they didn't dare make a scene here.

"Hehehe, I have a house, so we're going to my house," Rin replied, laughing again as she looked at Ciel's face.

This time, her gaze was more like an observation. Ciel couldn't help but ask, "Sister Rin, am I handsome?"

Asked about that, Rin rolled her eyes, but afterward she nodded.

"I admit, you are handsome, plus brave, that's why I like you," she replied, not hiding her thoughts at all. She was indeed very open-minded.

"Sister Rin, are you not worried about the Frozen Heart?" Ciel asked again, bringing up the important topic of why Ice Palace disciples were forbidden from marrying.

Unfortunately, the question made Rin sneer.

"Hmph, that's just the master' way of making the Ice Palace disciples reject men. Although there are consequences, but it's actually fine as long as we don't mess with our own minds. Yeah, doesn't everyone already know since you exposed the secret?"

Ciel laughed and then asked another question. "You're also very beautiful, there must be many men who like you. But why have you remained single until now? Don't tell me you had a premonition that you were destined for a certain young man in the future."

"Little Brother, you're really good at joking around." Rin suddenly pinched Ciel's waist.

"Honestly, I am unrivaled in my generation, so how can I be interested in men when no one can match me," she said.

"But you're attracted to me?"

"It's a different way because you're my cute Little Brother."

"...."

"Hmph, you bro-con!" Suddenly there was sarcasm in a snide tone.

It was from a boy who appeared to be only 13 years old, had blonde hair and was well-groomed.

What was interesting about him was his activeness. He was actually at the Hegemon Fifth Stage.

Ciel would say that he was truly a genius that was hard to find, more amazing than the Elf Queen's nephew.

Only, Ciel was more surprised by the term spoken, (bro-con?)

'Don't tell me that term is also here?' Ciel wondered in surprise, staring at several buildings advertising anime.

He thought maybe because there was anime here, so the term also existed.

Rin looked at the boy and rolled her eyes.

"Boy, who are you calling a bro-con?" she asked, looking offended even though she was.

On the way, Ciel had explained the details of bro-con and sis-con to her, so she already knew well about those things.

"You," the boy replied, seemingly not afraid at all.

Obviously his talent made him have above-average courage so he wasn't afraid of the strangers he met.
