A journey to the west Part 2
/*unedited*/
Mary Anderson is an internationally known haughty princess of the high society and the only heir of the mysterious kingdom of Bail. She is the only daughter of King Xinyi Anderson who is the modern living monarch that controls a whole country.
The kingdom of Bail is a secretive island located in the middle of the Indian Ocean. The island which is as big the whole combined land area of Hawaii suddenly appears out of nowhere. It didn't cause any commotion when it appears at first because it was veiled and hidden from the world. Then 10 years ago, the island suddenly shows up from the satellites which caused an alarm.
But what surprises everyone the most is that the island is actually not accessible either by air or by land.
It didn't take long for all the countries of the world to investigate the island. And when they sent their battleships and carriers in the area, what greeted them is a large sea vessel that looks like an old galleon ship with glistening sails that looks like flexible solar panels on top.
And the most amazing thing is that the ship is actually not floating on water but on air.
At the deck of the ship, the soldiers and sailors saw people standing while also looking at them wearing colored robes that make them look like magicians in the old days.
This was the start of the interactions between the mysterious kingdom known as Bail and the countries of the earth. But things suddenly stopped after a month as the kingdom of Bail suddenly shuts itself from the world.
The mystery continues until one day when a mysterious comet fell to the earth. The world was in turmoil at that time as many scientists began examining the weird black stone which comes from the sky. Even those people from the mysterious island came out to check the black stone out.
This made them open their borders to the world for good, in the condition that they too would join the research of the mysterious black stone.
But luck is not on everyone's side as they could not determine what the stone is, which is harder than a diamond, and what can it do. That is true until a young man working as a project engineer and a scientist of an Eastern country suddenly discovered the hidden writing on the stone.
When the writings were discovered, the young man began to lead the research team in breaking the code of the mysterious letters.
A few years later it was revealed to be runes and has a profound and great use to the world. The research was then strangely distributed throughout the whole world and from there uproar began in the scientific community which continues until now.
And then it happened that the discovery of the almost unlimited energy of the black stone made everyone dumbfounded.
They wanted to give the young researcher an award, but who would have thought that he would suddenly vanish and never to be seen again.
Meanwhile, in the kingdom of Bail, everyone was is a festive atmosphere upon receiving the information about the runes. In truth, the people in the kingdom of Bail live in seclusion because of a thousand-year-old secret they hold, which is… magic. Each citizen in the kingdom of Bail knows about the existence of Magic.
And the rune technology is something they are waiting for. With the rune technology, they can now repair their broken airships, mana weapons, and more.
However, it would still take time to do this research.
After the kingdom of Bail opens its borders, many people discovered the hidden history of the kingdom. Most of the people in the kingdom are actually the descendant of the people which were called witches in the old days. The kingdom itself became the haven for the witches who escaped the hunt and the massacre by the church. But the original people in the kingdom has a deeper secret and an unknown origin.
However, the people in the kingdom never show their power in public except for one person. And that is the only daughter of King Xinyi Anderson, Mary Anderson.
When the world interacted with the kingdom, they discovered their riches and many became greedy for it. And so they targeted the daughter who looks like a socialite and likes to mingle in the high society of the world. She was immediately known as the richest true princess in the world. However, the scheme became deeper and many have targeted her life.
It was two years ago when she and her convoy was assaulted by a group of militaristic men on her way to a gala in New York.
It was then that the whole world discovers the existence of a powerful woman who can wipe out a whole battalion of armed men all by herself. She summoned thunder, fire, and wind to blow and burn her enemies.
From that time on, many in the social circle feared and respected her for her riches and true power.
…
So now that she is sitting with Shin Jiao's group, those people in the known had a look of fear in their eyes.
"Correct me if I'm wrong but you are from the NXT Element Company, right?" suddenly May Anderson said with a smile on her face without even looking at the other people except for Shin Jiao and his group.
When she sits among them, the four people look like gods among men. Not only is their beauty impeccable even their aura is somewhat brilliant.
Susan Tang almost had her jaw drop to the ground upon looking at May Anderson.
Those in the high society of the world knew who this woman is and she is not something to be trifled with.

So when she heard her question, she immediately regained her wits with her and replied.
"Yes… yes, we are. I am honored to meet Miss Anderson." Susan Tang immediately said with a polite smile and gesture for a handshake.
Shi Anne Li on the side also stood up.
May didn't embarrass Susan as she also extended her hand and also shakes hand with Shi Anne Li. However, when her eyes landed on Shin Jiao, she was a bit confused. Then suddenly as if recalling something her eyes suddenly lit up.
"Ah… Doctor Jiao. Well, long time no see… I didn't expect to see you here." She suddenly said as she immediately stood up and offered her hand to Shin Jiao.
Feeling a bit confused, Shin Jiao unconsciously extended his hand to the woman who suddenly had a change of attitude.
Everyone in that place was baffled at this scene.
Mary Anderson actually knew who Shin Jiao is. This is because they have met before when the research about the black stone has begun.
She was there and also seen him before. In fact, she could not miss the youngest scientist in the group, and a handsome one at that. But of course, Shin Jiao could not remember because of his amnesia, plus he was too focused on research at that time that he has no time to know or even remember people.
The confused expression of Shin Jiao suddenly made Mary Anderson show a confused and a little dissatisfied look on her face.
"Ah… Princess, he might have forgotten about you because of the accident." Shi Anne Li suddenly said upon noticing the expression on Mary's face.
"Oh… now I understand. I've heard the news that he was missing for a while. I actually thought that something bad had happened. But seeing Doctor Jiao right now, I guess everything is fine, right?"
"Yes, however, he can't remember most people he has known before, so…"
"That's alright…"
Suddenly Mary Anderson drew closer to the group and said in a low voice.
"I discover and heard that the visors are using rune technology, is this correct?"
Shin Jiao looking at her nods his head. It was not a secret to anyone that it is using rune technology. But how he did it is something he would not share of course.
Seeing the affirmation and the nod of Shin Jiao, Mary Anderson immediately felt elated.
She has spent time and effort to know the activity of the NXT Element Company after the researcher in their kingdom discovered that the visor is using rune tech. And that is the reason why she is here right now.
As the four converses for a while, their flight number was called and the group stood up to board the plane.
The four didn't mind the others looking at them as they began to board the plane. While they are doing this, behind Shin Jiao's group is a young man who is currently looking at him with glistening eyes. His expression is like a diehard fan that has just seen his beloved idol in flesh.
Park Jiyong heard that the group is talking about it. When his companions distance themselves away from Shin Jiao and his group, he actually began to eves drop. And when he heard about the visor and the rune technology, his eyes lit up.
He too knew who Doctor Jiao is.
And now, he is looking at Shin Jiao like a fanboy.
Suddenly, Shin Jiao felt shivers running down his spine. He could not help but turn his gaze behind him.
There he saw a handsome young man looking at him like an idiot with a big smile on his face.
When Park Jiyong saw Shin Jiao glance at him, he immediately waves his and excitedly gestures while moving his mouth.
Shin Jiao can clearly read what the young man is saying in his mouth. And this made his scalp twitch feeling a bit helpless and a bit annoyed.
"Hi! I'm a big fan of yours… you are my idol."
"Who the heck is this idiot?" Shin Jiao thought as he turns around and continues walking.
