Chapter 1153: Myrth: 123

(Unedited)

…

Xin Ja has a movement skill which he has been practicing for a while now. It was the Shadow Steps. No matter how strong his enemy is, as long as it is within the realm of Ki fighter, he would be able to use Shadow Steps against them.

This is how he was able to vanish in front of his enemy from before, and this same skill is the skill that he is going to use once again.

The right fist of the enemy is directed at Xin Ja's head. It is a heavy strike that could easily render Xin Ja immobile in just one stroke.

Poof!!!

But who would have known that the figure of Xin Ja would suddenly vanish on the spot?

Before the trainee officer could react, he felt a strong force hitting his back sending him toppling to the ground.

He has underestimated his opponent once again.

In a sorry manner, the young trainee officer tumbles to the ground in shame.

The officer looks at this scene in disbelief. He suddenly glares at the small youth and unfolds his arms.

He wanted to attack, but his pride is stopping him.

But the trainee officer just lost the face of the entire officer's group in the army. How could he lose to a piece of trash?

The captain who is standing on the side showed a faint smile on his face.

"Interesting… What kind of technique was that?" he muttered.

The young officer quickly stood up and in anger and shame dashed towards Xin Ja. This time, he covered his right hand with thick Ki energy.

It quickly tore through the air making howling noise as it was about to strike Xin Ja. However, the same thing happened.

The small figure disappears in front of his eyes and he would be sent tumbling while being kicked from his back. The young officer is now confused on why his Ki barrier is not effective when fighting against a mere 1st level Ki fighter. He was truly humiliated at this time.

Suddenly, the man standing with the crowd is already showing a deep frown in his eyes. He suddenly tossed a vial to the ground where Xin Ja is standing.

Crash!!!

As the vial breaks, a strange white smoke appears in the air which immediately surrounded Xin Ja's body.

"Take him down now!" shouted the officer in anger.

The young officer quickly made his move and attacked once again.

Swoosh!!!

The same thing happened, he only hit the air. But something is wrong, he suddenly discovers his foot is unable to move and his body feels sticky.

Then a figure appears in front of the man in his 30's… and before everyone could react, the man is already curled like shrimp as a strong force hits his stomach.

The man rolled on the ground while clutching his stomach and trying to gasp for air.

Only did everyone notice the figure of Xin Ja standing in front of that man. But what they noticed is that he is not wearing any shoes.

When the liquid hits the ground, Xin Ja wanted to move, but he discovers his shoes are stuck. He quickly decides to abandon his shoes and attack the man using Shadow Steps.

The man on the ground suddenly stopped moving as he seems to have fainted.

While the young officer is unable to move due to the strong adhesive coming from the ground and the mist created by the broken vial.

Luckily for Xin Ja, his Ki barrier is in effect, if not, then he would be like the young officer, with his body filled with a sticky substance.

"Damn it! Do I have to do everything myself!" the officer finally said as he takes a step forward.

"Hey… hey… That would already be bullying." The captain said as he takes a step this time.

When everyone saw the captain, they all salute by putting their right hand on their chest. The officer was a bit stunned and looks at the captain.

"You are a senior officer, and yet you don't know how to assess the situation. Although both parties cause this trouble, yet you should already know the truth, right?" the captain said with a frown.

Before the officer could say anything, another officer walks towards the captain and handed him a scroll.

"Hmm… Let's see… Xin Ja… from Ogden town. Your father is Xin Jong… Haha… I know senior Xin. Good… good, I guess you are his foolish son, right?" the captain said with a smile.

"And you are a medic and an alchemist… Eh? So that means, you really are an alchemist." The captain said with a playful smile.

Out of all the strict officers in the camp, this captain is the one who is a bit lax when it regards to military rules.

So he looks at the three people and continues reading.

"Recommended to medic by…" the captain suddenly stopped and then looks at Xin Ja then at the scroll again.

Disbelief is written all over his face as he looks at the officer and the junior officer with pity.

He then heaves a deep sigh.

"You guys disperse… there is nothing to watch here…" he said while waving his hand as if chasing away some flies.

"You two should not push this through if you don't want trouble…" he said at the two officers with a stern expression.

He then looks at the fainted man on the ground.

"Take him with you…" he commanded.

His demeanor suddenly became strict as if his previous attitude was just a façade.

After the group left, he turns to face Xin Ja.

"Aiyo… This junior is very strong and talented… I hope that you would not punish those people, right? I know they are foolish and everything, but they are still a part of the army. On behalf of them, I would say I apologize…" he said as he cupped his hands.

Xin Ja was a bit taken aback but did not mind the attitude of the captain. He also knew that he could not push his luck further. It is already good enough that a captain was able to intervene.

"I hope that little brother could teach me one of your tricks someday…" the captain said while patting Xin Ja's shoulder as he left with an officer beside him.

A little confused, about the situation, Xin Ja shakes it off and continues what he was doing from before.

He was thinking that those people would not stop from pestering him and was also confused about the scroll that the captain was reading. It seems to be a piece of information about him. But why did the captain change his attitude afterward?

It was too confusing that he could not fathom it no matter how he thinks about it. So he just shook his head and stop thinking.

And so the days continue peacefully for him, and no one pesters him which made Xin Ja a bit pleased. The military continues to journey and practice at the same time constantly until they arrive in the village of Ogden Southern Gate.

Just outside the village is the large camping ground for the kingdom's army. Just like many other villages on the border of the kingdom, an army camp like this could be seen.

When they arrive in the village, Xin Ja immediately felt the familiarity of the place. He could even notice the constant flickering of the teleportation gate of the village.

This means that strong people are coming and going to the village.

The troops enter the army camp and they noticed more people that are already in the camp.

Xin Ja looks at his surroundings and was immediately awed at the number of soldiers in the camp.

"I guess we are really going to war now…" he muttered while following the troops.

In their journey, the relationship between Xin Ja and Yao Mai Lin became close as she would almost always visit him every now and then.

She would sometimes ask him about some things she did not understand in the officer's training which made her feel that Xin Ja is truly reliable and knowledgeable in many things.

In her officer's training, what made Yao Mai Lin have a hard time is when talking about formations. She would almost always make mistakes until she opened this up to Xin Ja. Xin Ja patiently explained to her the purpose of each formation which is like a rune array formation.

And because of this, she was able to understand everything and was able to pass the officer's training.

Out of the many of them, Yao Mai Lin who is already a good strategist was able to pass with flying colors because she is able to understand more about the military formations and their path and purpose. With such understanding, she was able to get ahead of her peers.

And so, she was assigned a company of her own under a captain.

She did not hesitate to pick Xin Ja to be in her company as a medic and an alchemist.

When Xin Ja was called, he immediately recognize the captain and Senior Yao inside the officer's tent.

"Medical Personnel Xin Ja, reporting for duty, sir!" Xin Ja said while saluting.

The two noticed him and smile.

"I'm Captain Tang… and you already know Officer Yao… Welcome to our company…" the captain said with a smile.
