Chapter 913: The Deep Waters Of The Inner Kingdom

(Unedited)

…

Shin Jiao lead the Grand Magus, Mao Enosis, and the saint, Gwendolyn Grav, into the ship. The two were amazed at this time after seeing the invisible ship which they only noticed after Shin Jiao said something.

The saint is unable to detect the dark energy in Im Ao and Im Jae at this time after she enters the ship. With this, Shin Jiao could now confirm that only when Im Ao or Im Jae uses their energy would they be discovered. But only the saint can see this as her detection ability against the darkness is too sensitive.

The soldiers and the mages, on the other hand, did not have any choice but to travel back along with the carriage and the two maids of the saint.

"This is an amazing magical flying carriage…" Grand Magus Enosis said while looking outside through the windows.

The enthusiastic old man is all over the ship as he did not show any of the decorum of a Grand Magus. In fact, because the old man is always doing research he is not that familiar with any of the ways in the outside world. Though he would not show this kind of attitude towards the king or the royal family, except when around them the old man is usually free just like what he is showing right now.

He was too interested in the flying ship that he could not stop asking Shin Jiao some questions. He would even extend his head and observe the many complex buttons on the cockpit and ask many questions.

The travel became a question and answer where the old man asks many questions while Shin Jiao would interact with him casually.

Shin Jiao himself is a researcher, though he is also a fighter at the same time, he still has the heart of a researcher. So talking to another researcher is a great thing for him.

The rest of the people on the ship began to feel annoyed while the two people talks. Even his co-pilot mage Mallek wanted to just jump out of the cockpit as he felt his head ached with these two people. But of course, no one dares voice their opinion as these two are the most powerful people on this ship.

Instead, Hua Xiao grabs the small door and closes it separating the sound in the cockpit from the ship's body.

"Ah… Peace at last…" she said while showing a pleased look on her beautiful face.

Meanwhile, Im Jae is just sitting in a corner while looking coldly at the saint. Im Ao, on the other hand innocently observes his sister and the beautiful young woman with a confused expression on his innocent face.

Yemei Yin, on the other hand, is extremely cautious as she saw and knows what happened on the ground a while ago. She is aware that the saint can see dark magic, and the two siblings are able to use black magic. She did not want any trouble to occur in their travel, so she is a bit guarded towards the saint.

"So you are the one they called as the saint?" Xiamen Gong decided to start a conversation with the young woman.

Hua Xiao who heard this also felt interested. She wanted to know what really a saint is.

Gwendolyn felt that the two are a bit friendly so she began to explain. However, she did not say anything about the dark past of the war. She just told them her duties as a saint.

As a saint, she has the duty to hunt the believers of the dark lord Ruel. She is also responsible for protecting the empire from any threat from the forces of darkness.

And one of her most crucial duty is to birth a child with the same saint powers as hers.

When the two heard that, they showed a pitying gaze at the young woman. Although she is the Saint, she has not freedom at all. She is being used as a tool for the royalty.

"So you need to marry that person to produce heirs of your saint power?" Hua Xiao asked.

Gwendolyn nodded.

"But, I don't want to… I heard that your guys came from the outer world?" she asked suddenly.

"Outer world? Yeah, in Central Town…" Xiamen Gong said with a smile.

"No… I mean… The Outer World…"

"Ohhh… The immortal land… Yes, we do come from that place."

"Sigh… It must be a very nice place, right?" Gwendolyn said with a hint of envy in her eyes.

"Hmmm… Well, yeah. But it depends on your status. In that place, there are levels of status which can give you freedom."

"Really, I thought only in this place has status. I guess the Immortal Land is also a place where people are not equal… I thought at equality could be found in that place…" Gwendolyn said with a sunken expression.

"Haha… You are still too naïve to think about that. Of course, people should not be equal. This is because we are born with different abilities. One should use his or her ability to rise above the rest. Or you can also be contented with what you have… However, that is not the essence of life itself. Life is about improvement, growth, not stagnation, and being content. So I think what you said about equality is just a dream…" Hua Xiao said as if she trying to indoctrinate the mind of a young girl.

Gwendolyn is dissatisfied with this answer, because of what she saw that is happening in the inner kingdom. The scheming, the treachery, and the devious machinations of the nobles are too immoral and unfair that they made her feel disgusted.

So she did not want to believe that there is no equality in this world.

"But if that is what you think, then would the world become chaotic and fighting would not stop…" she asked with a frown.

"Well, I actually know a place where equality exists… But that place is far more dangerous than you think. To balance the universe and obtain equality, the forces of light and darkness would always wage wars. And the battle's result is always equal." Xiamen Gong said with a smile.

When Hua Xiao heard this she was silent. She knew what and where that place is. When she was born, she was educated to prepare to reach that place. That is where the Deities and the Shadow Beings wage war against another, the cosmos.

Everyone was silent after Xiamen Gong said that. Gwendolyn was a bit confused because what they are saying is something foreign to her and she did not understand it.

"Princess, if you want peace… get stronger. Be stronger than others… That way, you can dictate what you wanted. That way, you can push the idea of equality to those who are under you… You can even have the power to choose whom you want to marry... Hihi." Hua Xiao said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, the expression of Gwendolyn showed a bit of realization. However, she also understood that if she became stronger than others, then she would not be her people's equal. So the cycle would still continue.

At this point in time, she now realized the reality of this world. She realized what the so-called balance is actually not possible.

Meanwhile, inside the cockpit, the old man and Shin Jiao stopped talking and were actually listening to the discussion behind them.

"Hmmm… I too am curious about that world outside this kingdom. I wonder when I can go there…" he said as if imagining a wonderful place.

Shin Jiao who understands the truth, just kept his silence. He could not tell the old man that he himself is actually from that place and that the old man's soul is just being recycled over and over to provide memory power to the two deities that created this world...

And so, the trip to the inner kingdom continues as such while the people discuss a lot of things and shared their own ideas and opinions.

…

Meanwhile, in a village inside the inner kingdom…

A decrepit-looking old man wearing tattered old clothing and limping while he walks came out of his old wooden house from deep within a forest.

As he walks out, he looks at the nearby village and then glared at it.

"If… not… for those light mages… I would not… have suffered… like this…" he said while gritting his teeth in pain.

His body is full of pus with yellow liquid coming out of them. The repugnant smell coming from the old man's body has made the villagers drive him out of their village.

Although the old man looks horrifying, he was actually once a noble in the inner kingdom. But tragedy struck his family and he lost everything. Because he was not able to defend himself from the schemes of others, he lost his family and all of his possessions.

And now he has no choice but to live his life in misery in this place.

He slowly walks towards the river and carefully looks at his reflection. He now looks old and ugly. He did not know when it all started.

But he knew how to end it.. He is now ready to meet his family in the so-called afterlife.
