A stunning silence had descended into the room since the red light had entered inside Xiao, the shaking stopped, the red sinister eyes above disappeared, everything went back to its natural calm state,
"Xiao, just what happened?"
Li Lun asked with a curious look on her face to which Xiao shrugged his shoulder,
"No idea, I was just going with the flow"
While Xiao trusted Li Lun, he still doesn't have any trust for Teresa, plus he couldn't be sure that anybody else was watching them now, the fact that he possesses All-Seer is sothing he would tell when he's only 100% sure that there's no way for it to leak.
Even with Yurou he only told about it to her through their special connection where no one will be able to eavesdrop or listen to, plus Xiao knows 100% that no matter what Yurou will stand with him, even if it ant going against the very phoenix's that raised her, she will definitely take his side, he could still feel her deep obsessive love combined from the past to the present,
"What should we do now?"
Li Lun asked to which Xiao shook his shoulder as he spoke,
"Don't know, I've looked at the room, the material around is not sothing we can break, all we can do is wait, Teresa wouldn't have sent us here without a reason"
It was only after hearing Xiao's words did Li Lun's eyes lit up as she began to speak,
"Oh! sorry! I guess you don't know about the Tower Of Inheritors"
"The Tower Of Inheritors?"
Xiao asked back in doubt, though he did have quite a strong understanding of what it is, hearing his words Li Lun started to explain about it as Xiao nodded his head in understanding, overall, the information that she gave him was the sa as he knew.
The Tower Of Inheritors is a special place where a dinsional tower suspended within a realm that no one knows exists, it is only applicable to the inheritors of constellations, people who grew from nothing to etch their nas into history, the tower is where these inheritors have to climb in order to get their complete inheritance.
But this place was another catch, it is that these inheritors would be able to compete against each other to see who was superior, the last remaining wisps of the constellations will remain here as they boast amongst themselves who got the better inheritor, overall it's a place to get strong for the weak while for the strong its a place to boast.
The tower is the main reason that many of the inheritors of the constellations are feared,
"So you just have to climb here?"
Xiao asked to which Li Lun nodded,
"Then what the hell are we doing here?"
Xiao asked, completely acting clueless, to his question Li Lun shrugged her shoulder with a confused look,
"I don't know, in the information I received I never got anything about this situation"
And just as she spoke a voice that Xiao was getting familiar with was heard in his head.
[It's done]
'What's done?'
And just as Xiao spoke another cool female voice was heard in his head.
[Mia greets master]
'Mia? master? what's going on?'
[Aren't you happy? you know have a device with a beautiful woman's voice accompanying you]
All-Seer replied with a sneer, giving a headache to Xiao as he spoke back,
'Clarify the situation to '
[In a nutshell, we have succeeded, the device is now under my or to be more exact under your control]
Hearing this Xiao's eyes lit up, this was the best information that he could get,
'So, this Mia, how loyal is she?'
Xiao asked with narrowed eyes.
[You don't have to worry about that, this ego is the controller of this tower and the good thing is that she had no master, thus now officially making you the master of this tower]
'Seriously?'
Xiao asked with widening eyes, not believing what he was hearing, he had to take a deep breath to calm down his raging heart,
'But why is her voice different?'
Xiao asked, before when it was scanning him the voice was more like buzzy and confusing.
[Well I just made it like that or do you like a man's voice? don't worry I will respect your decision]
'Sigh...then can you do it too?'
Xiao asked as he avoided the snarking remark that All-Seer was giving him. His question regarding more validity as even till now All-Seer is talking to him in a gender-neutral voice.
[Not interested]
A quick denial! but Xiao didn't interject as he focused on the other issue at hand,
'So how does this Mia work? will she be in my head like you? or is there any other information that I am missing?'
[Ask all that to her, I am really tired and will be taking a small sleep, you won't be able to talk to but all my other functions will still work]
'I see, then take good rest'
[Okay]
'Wait'
[What?]
An annoyed response but Xiao didn't mind it as he replied,
'Thank you'
[As long as you know]
As the final words were hinted All-Seer beca silent, Xiao knew when to be thankful and when not to be, while All-Seer seems to have its own objective and Xiao will definitely rip out that objective but even till then, they are together for now.
'So Mia, transport us to the main lobby entrance, while also impart to all you can do'
[As you wish master]
Upon hearing so Xiao turned towards Li Lun who was looking at him, even though he was silent and in a daze, she didn't wake him out of it as she just kept looking at him,
"What?"
Xiao asked to which Li Lun blinked her eyes as she responded with a cheeky remark,
"Nothing, I just like looking at you"
Hearing so Xiao turned silent as both their bodies soon started to turn into particles, Xiao losing a sense of his body for a mont as his eyes were blinded, the next mont he opened his eyes he was in an extrely humongous hall, all around him different people could be seen, there wasn't much but about a hundred as they kept walking.
Everyone that Xiao looked at wasn't human, several different species were walking around Xiao saw elves, beasts, a Norak, and many more but all of them had one thing in common they were either extrely appealing or dangerous, and each one of them has an aura of pride, and the knowledge that they are among the best oozed out of them as they moved around the tower heading to challenge the greater floors,
"Wow...."
Li Lun's words brought him out of his thoughts as he saw Li Lun who was looking at the different species with sparkling eyes,
'Yeah, it's her first ti'
Upon thinking so Xiao moved and caught her hand with his, making her look at him, her eyes widening after which a smile ca to her face,
"Stay close"
Xiao spoke to which Li Lun wrapped her hands around him as she replied,
"Always...."
A smile took Xiao while his eyes discreetly scanned those among the younger inheritors that kept eyes on Li Lun ever since they both entered the tower, though this wasn't a one-way problem as it affected Xiao too.
While Li Lun was dazzling, Xiao was on another level, for those seeing him for the first ti would have a great impact on them, even so High awakened elves looked at Xiao with shining eyes, his looks even being above theirs.
