Chapter 364: I’ll Be Counting On You
“Ranze! Can you hear ?” Xuer spoke to the Spydragon, hearing sounds from the other side.
As a puppet, the Spydragon was able to see, hear, and sll things. It was also capable of generating sounds, though the clarity of voice wasn’t spectacular over long distances.
“…Xuer?” Ranze’s hesitant voice resounded from the side. He was still in the ruins, resting when he suddenly noticed a Spydragon fly before him, startling him as he assud it was an Origin Beast. But the voice from it belonged to Xuer, confusing him.
“I’m able to speak to you thanks to Lord Gahrat.” Xuer felt Compass Carburettor’s stare on her as she hurriedly let go of any lodrama that she planned to say, jumping to the cusp of the matter, “I found out that the Sect Master and Elder Galda had planned to kill you…”
“Wait, wait, wait! How do you know that? Where are you currently? Are you safe?” Ranze shouted in alarm.
Compass Carburettor had erected an energy blade do around them, preventing the guards posted outside from hearing anything. That’s how they were able to converse all along.
“Lord Gahrat had planned to take you in as his student. So, he was observing your actions all along.” Xuer then inford him of so things, assuring Ranze that she would be careful and would cultivate harder.
“We won’t be able to et since they’ll try to kill you the mont they know that you’re alive. Uncle and Aunt would be worried, so there’s no other way but to make it known that you had survived.” Xuer said before looking at Compass Carburettor, nodding in response.
She then spoke, “So, Lord Gahrat proposed you write a letter where you admit your incompetence, and express your willingness to leave the Sect. On my side, I’ll act in accordance to ensure they wouldn’t aim to harm you.”
“You can then bide your ti until you beco strong enough. Lord Gahrat said that your Divine Martial Spirit is the strongest there is.”
There was silence for a good ten seconds after that as Ranze’s sullen voice resounded, “Lord Gahrat, are you able to hear ?”
“Yea, you’re speaking through my ability anyway.” Compass Carburettor nodded, “What do you wish to ask about?”
“Can you please not tell Xuer about such things? I don’t want her to think about politics and the likes. I want her to stay pure and innocent.” Ranze said.
“Are you dumb?” Compass Carburettor retorted imdiately, “Don’t delude yourself into thinking that everything would go your way eventually based on the stories you’ve read. You’re not the main character.”
“I am!”
“W-What the hell are you talking about?” Ranze stuttered.
‘I should correct this aspect of transmigrators. Usually, such characters wise up after a tragedy or two.’ He then looked at Xuer, “If you wish to tell him anything else, do it now. My ti is running short. I’ll knock so sense into him on my way out.”
“But Ranze is already smart…” Xuer said.
“He’s not smart enough.” Compass Carburettor said before thinking of sothing, scratching his head as he thought, ‘They are important to my plans. Might as well do it like this.’
He sighed, informing Grisha as she imdiately appeared before Ranze, enveloped him in a cocoon of energy blade and brought him into the Dinsional Space.
Compass Carburettor then brought him out, causing him to look around in confusion, “Where the heck am…Xuer?”
“Ranze? How are you here now?” Xuer too was shocked before realising the scene where Compass Carburettor had abruptly arrived at her room in the first place.
Ranze noticed that he was in her room before turning around to see the figure of Compass Carburettor, frowning as he was deep in thought, feeling that the face was familiar before uttering, “…Compass Carburettor?”
“So, you know . That ans you haven’t transmigrated here at birth.” Compass Carburettor smiled, “That makes things simple.”
“How are you here?” Ranze asked in shock.
“Let’s leave that aside.” Compass Carburettor muttered, gazing at Ranze, “Have you read any webnovels with Systems?”
“Yes, I have.” Ranze nodded, feeling that he could trust the other party for so reason, a mysterious feeling.
“Alright, then I can bring you up to speed quickly.” He said, giving him a summary about the true nature of Systems, shocking Ranze. Moreover, considering how he didn’t even feel anything while muttering about Systems, Compass Carburettor realised that ti was indeed running short. He had to hurry up with everything.
“To think they too were real. And now, they are aiming for you?” Ranze frowned, “But, where do I co into this picture?”
“Divine Martial Spirit.” Compass Carburettor muttered, “In this world, there are only four Divine Martial Spirits. Three are still in the Martial Spirit Realm while the fourth is with you. Currently, the System Hosts and I are in a race to grow stronger. And we would obviously be competing for the sa things while trying to kill each other. And you’ll be a great obstacle to them, since your luck is also trendous.”
“Your luck would affect their own. So, they’ll try to eliminate you.” He then pointed at Xuer, “And considering how gullible she is, they would be able to manipulate her into causing your death. Either her or your parents, whoever works the best in causing your demise.”
“You don’t need to believe . You’ll eventually co across people trendously superior to you in life experience and fighting abilities concerning their age. And, all of them would possess Heaven Martial Spirits.” Compass Carburettor said, “So, that’s your cue. If you hear any rumours about Heaven Martial Spirits from now on, know that they are System Hosts.”
“Fine, then what do you want to do? You seem terrifyingly powerful. I can’t think of any way I’ll be of help to you.” Ranze said.
“Nothing much.” Compass Carburettor smiled, “If you co across such people, kill them. Though, if you’re even able to kill one of them, I’ll be surprised.”
Compass Carburettor then frowned, raising his hand to motion for Ranze to shut up, “My ti’s up.”
He tossed Ranze into his Dinsional Space after wrapping him in a cocoon of an energy blade to prevent him from seeing anything that was within the Dinsional Space.
He then gazed at Xuer, leaving behind a statent before disappearing, “Work hard to grow stronger so that you can protect yourself and your loved ones. I’ll be counting on you in the future…”
“As Hazen.”
