War of the Gods and Demons: Chapter 17

…

Xin Ja shifted his eyes from the two figures before him while his expression turned heavy. He could not help himself but feel anger and jealousy in his heart upon seeing such a scene.

"Sigh, what am I expecting to see coming here?" he thought as he held on to his aching heart while he shifted his gaze away.

He knew that she did not recognize him even after seeing him. Plus, he could tell that she is now living a good life with a caring fiancé. If she really remembers everything, then his disappearance would surely be a hindrance to her and would cause her grief.

"I think that this is for the better…" he thought as his figure suddenly disappears from the spot.

This startled everyone on the veranda. The mother of Rou Chenchen heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing that Xin Ja did not react violently.

Best

She knew of his connection to the prince and how he is valued by the royal family.

But she did not want her daughter to suffer such a fate anymore and would rather that she lived a normal life.

…

It was late at night when Rou Chenchen sits calmly beside her bed while looking at the stars. She seems to have a vague feeling upon seeing the young man from before. She did not know why but she almost wanted to walk towards that young man and greet him.

But when she saw her fiancé, she decided to forget about such a feeling. She could not let down Rong Wan who has been so good to her after all this time.

Suddenly, she feels a bit sleepy and her eyes lid slowly close uncontrollably.

Her body suddenly fell limply on the bed with her eyelid barely closing.

In her dimming vision, she saw a blurry figure. But she could still remember the color of that robe. She knew that the one who suddenly intruded into her room was that young guess.

Her heart feels afraid and worried, but her consciousness is already fading.

When she woke up, it was already the morning of the next day and she feels a bit weird in her head.

When she wanted to drink something, she noticed a letter on the table side.

She looks around and felt a bit weird. Then she recalled what happened last night which startled her. She quickly checked her body and when she felt that nothing is wrong she heaved a sigh of relief.

Then she looks at the letter and decided to read it.

"You don't know who I am… but I think that we are fated to meet. As a congratulatory gift, I have opened a part of your mind to alchemy… Congratulations on your incoming marriage. This is my congratulatory gift and at the same time my parting gift to you… Ms. Rou Chenchen…"

While reading she could feel a hint of melancholy and sadness in the handwriting.

She did not know what it means, but she has an inkling that he should have given her something.

And so, she decided to go to her alchemy practice room and began concocting.

…

After Xin Ja visited Rou Chenchen that night, he decided to go back to the other world. He would then visit his father and friend in Ogden town tomorrow if he has time.

When he returns to the other world, he was actually given a choice to either appear in a random place or the place he started teleporting. Of course, he decided to return to the place where he left. He dares not go around gallivanting in any places as he has an important mission for tomorrow.

As soon as he appears in his bedroom, he did not waste time and decided to craft things that he needed for tomorrow.

The next day…

A long line of caravan exited the snowy village and in that long line of a caravan at the very back is a far longer carriage which is unlike the rest of the carriages in the caravan.

It is as long as three carriages put together and what made it unique from the rest of the carriages is that it is not being dragged by a beast.

The large carriage actually runs on its own.

Those who saw it showed curiosity in their eyes while looking at the weird-looking carriage.

But the people inside the carriage pay no mind to the people outside.

They are busy finishing the task that was given to them by Xin Ja, and if ever something will come up, they will have a chance to see the result of their research sooner.

Gun Mace showed a deep frown on his face while looking at an object on his table. One of his subordinates has created a prototype. The guy called it, connected vision to the one that their group is making.

He checked the item and even tried it, but he could still not get what was so unique or what use the thing.

In fact, instead of being useful, as heavy as it is, he knew that it could cause encumbrance to anyone who would wear such a thing.

So he shakes his head while looking at it.

Suddenly, he noticed Xin Ja walking beside him and then suddenly grabbing the object.

"Who made this?" he asked.

"It's… it's one of your researchers…" Gun Mace replied as he quickly stands up.

"Hmm… This is a good gadget… It could protect the wearer if only it is a bit lighter…" he said while weighing the helmet in his hand.

"Here… use this as a material and then… use this kind of array for the pattern to make things lighter." Xin Ja began drawing something on the table and then explains it at Gun Mace.

After understanding what Xin Ja means, Gun Mace did not hesitate and quickly called that researcher. He then explained what Xin Ja told him and the two began working at their tables.

Xin Ja steps out of the 'bus' and looks outside.

The way the caravan travels is very slow, but he could not hasten them as he knew that they are just decoys.

The real group has already left at a high speed earlier and they are here to attract anyone or anything that wanted to take that thing and the young girl away.

"Good morning, Young master Xin!" greeted a guard who suddenly travels beside the "bus".

"Good morning!" he greeted back.

"This thing is really weird. How is it able to move without anything pulling it?" asked the soldier with a deeply curious gaze as he scrutinized the large carriage.

"Why… do you want to know?" asked Xin Ja with a smile.

Seeing that smile, the soldier shook his head.

He listened to one of the lectures that this young master has done, and it made him almost sleep throughout the entire time.

At that instant, he knew that his mind is not geared toward creating things. But he is still curious about things though.

The young man then patted his Compressed Air Weapon or CAW and showed a wide grin.

"I'm already contented with this one… Ever since the army got hold of such a weapon, our casualties become less… I guess we owe this thanks to you…" the soldier nods his head with a smile.

"You're welcome…"

…

The caravan soon arrives near a cliff which troubled Xin Ja for a bit. With the size of the bus, he knew that they could not pass through the cliff.

He decided to fly high up and then reached the top of the mountain. He noticed that there is actually a path in that area, but it seems that no one wanted to use such a path.

So he floated down and decides to ask the leader of the group.

"The cemented path atop the cliff…" he said but the expression of the soldiers turned grave.

"Sir, ever since those flying demons appear… No one has ever used a vehicle with an engine just like the one you are using now. The main path should be a good path to take, but it is also the most dangerous…" the soldier explained.

Xin Ja knew of the loud engine in this world.

Upon hearing this explanation, he nodded his head in agreement as it would cause too much attraction if they took the cement path.

However, the bus would not fit the cliff path, so he has to make a choice whether to take the small path which would endanger them from falling or the highway which might or might not make those flying demons attack them.

Although there are two choices, Xin Ja's choice is already clear in his mind.

Of course, they will take the highway.

If anything should happen, he is confident in his preparation. And since he is going to protect only the bus, then that would be easier for him than going the smaller path which would lead them to fall to their deaths on that stiff cliff.

He then looks in the direction of the highway and quickly decided to take the road.

"Guys, we will take the main highway… You guys can just take the smaller path…" he said with a smile.

The leader of the caravan could not help but think deeply. But seeing the determined gaze in Xin Ja's eyes, the young leader nodded his head and agreed.
