Chapter 188 X-Ray Vision Failed!

'What in the Jove's name is that thing?! Hmm, but the next time we meet I'm going to pay you back triple fold.' Bobby screamed and made a firm decision in his head.

"Are you okay?" Claire asked worriedly as she held his back to see the two drops of blood tearing out from his eyes.

"I'm fine!" Bobby said, as he wiped the blood off and put the pendant around his neck.

"Is there anything else to add here since I thought it was because of that damn pendant? Why don't you leave with me here?" Mia demanded.

"Nope, I need to keep it with me." Bobby rejected her notion, and he further added, "Ma, I know you're worried about me. But just believe me with this. Nothing will happen to me. And even I'm the only one who has your purest bloodline."

"Alright, but don't you try to do anything dangerous that's beyond your capability, okay?" Mia agreed. Then she further added, "Since you're here, why don't you stay here for a few days? And I like to interact more with Claire too?"

"Ma, what about this? I've got a city of my own. Why don't you come with us to stay there for a while?" Bobby suggested.

"Oh, you have a city of your own?!" Mia asked in surprise.

"Yes, and this city is near to this island. I believe we can slowly infiltrate this world and integrate among their people, starting from this city. Why don't you tell Grand Elder John to manage here?" Bobby said, insisting on her.

Later, Mia left everything in the excellent hands of Grand Elder McCain and departed in the luxurious flying vessel along with Bobby and Claire, setting its course for the Cantoon City.

-------------------------------------

The Cantoon City,

It had been ten days since Bobby and the two ladies arrived and stayed in the city. All this time, Bobby focused on cultivation for the upcoming Chief's selection test while the two ladies stayed together and the two became so close as if they were sisters.

Following Bobby's killing of three elders, the Noble families stopped sending their killers after that. It was as if they finally understood that he was not just a simple target anymore and they didn't wish to let another member of their noble families get killed recklessly.

Sometimes Bobby would emerge from his recluse and stroll around the street of the city, which was now bustling with thousands of tourists, and various stalls and markets were also bustling with traders.

"Hmm, I should give a visit to governor Flint," Bobby muttered under his breath and changed his direction walking toward the direction of the Governor's office.

Along the way, he spotted a shabby-looking weapon stall with a sign 'Grandpa Lupac's Weapon store' written in Porus.

But what caught his attention was underneath that line was a strange symbol that looked like the one he saw in the portrait of his biological parents.

Then, with a thought, he activated the Devil's eyes ocular technique and used the X-Ray Vision to scan the logo.

"Yes, I'm not wrong. This is the exact logo I've seen inside the pendant. And underneath, there is also a drawing of a red dragon. I better meet this shopkeeper and let's find out whether they have a clue or two about my pendant." Bobby mused under his breath. But first, he scanned the wooden shack-like stall using the X-Ray Vision.

"Ah! What the….hell!?" But the next thing Bobby exclaimed in surprise and said telepathically in his head, "Cynthia, what is wrong with my visual technique?"

"Dude, what's up?" Cynthia asked him telepathically, as she had been entering a silent stupor earlier.

"Why in the Devil's name is my X-Ray vision, has failed to penetrate even the wall of this run-down weapon store?" Bobby asked, as his eyes scintillated purple. This was the second time he had failed to penetrate his vision under the activation of the X-Ray Vision. The first was all the books in Diana's library back in Dwarka Planet.

"Oh, let me see." Cynthia responded and the next thing she chanted a spell in Old Porus tongue and shouted, "Heaven and Earth uncovered under my Angelic Eye!"

Then her eye glinted in dazzling white and turned her vision to the run-down stall and after a minute, she signed and replied, "Dude, I think something is blocking our vision. Anyway, why don't you get inside and see who the owner of this mysterious store is? I'm curious too."

Bobby walked inside the store and the moment he stepped inside the door, he felt it transported him to someplace. The first thing he noticed was that, unlike its small outer sight, the inside of the building was so spacious and there were many weapons arranged in order. And he glanced around and saw that an old man wearing a full human dress and covering his right eye with an eye patch was snoring while reclining his back on a rocking chair.

"Hello, good day sir!" Bobby greeted him, but the other continued to snooze like he hadn't slept for days. So, he approached and pushed the man abruptly, making him jolted back awake from his afternoon nap.

"Ahh, Customer-customer-customer!" the old man yelled and jumped to stand on his foot. He then wiped the drool with his long sleeve and said courteously, "Welcome to the Grandpa Lupac's store! Sorry for my earlier poor professional ethics. Actually, it has been a long time since another soul found my store. Well, you're the lucky star this time. Tell me anything; weapon, power stone, or even information you want to know about. You can buy anything from my store."

Suddenly Bobby felt so warm that he thought this guy was cut out for taking such a job.

"Mr.Tupac, right? I'm Loki Bradworth, the master of this city." Bobby said and then he further asked, "I don't know why or how a human-like you, opening a stall inside my city which is deep within the territories of Angel?"
