"He didn't contact that fortune teller...
Isn't fate supposed to be on the guardian's side?
Did you at least connect to the karma of whoever he contacted just now?"
The token's chanical voice sounded,
[Affirmative. It was a level 5 ssenger of the gods.]
Little Mortal snorted,
"First of all, that's not an angel, but a birdman.
Second of all, that's not a god's ssenger,
but a parasite middleman."
[Noted.]
Little Mortal rubbed his chin while mumbling to himself,
"That bird guy said he will tell the fortune teller about it.
It ans he isn't around, or he could tell him instantly...
Isn't that fortune teller supposed to always watch over this place, and the mont he receives feedback from his law about a new guardian,
send soone to take care of the target?
And now he isn't here, and he isn't anywhere close either, or he could receive the ssage and co over imdiately.
So where could he -
oh wait!
It's the newborns' ceremony on the mainland!
Did he 'predict' sothing related to the ceremony?
Either way, he is there now, and that's why he can't get the ssage imdiately, because only higher beings can send and receive ssages when it cos to the mainland!
My passive ability 'May fate be with the guardian' kicked in?"
Then he asked excitedly,
"Mr. Token, can I beco a guardian here?"
[With the main guardian token, you can nominate yourself for the Planet Guardian position on any planet without a guardian.
There is no limit.]
"Is the guardian position empty here?"
[Affirmative.]
"Then contact the manager!"
[Connecting to planet manager...
Connection failed.
Higher being force field detected.]
"Oh, it must be the fortune teller..."
Then he scratched his head,
"Who might know where the manager is?
Maybe that bird guy?
Connect to space mirror - no wait!
From now on, I will tell you who to connect with and who to disconnect from with the 'tap' thod.
Alright?
1 tap ans disconnect and connect the first slot.
2 taps ans disconnect and connect the second slot.
And after 1 or 2 taps, if I tap you again, you should connect to the specific birth treasure depending on the number of taps!
Get it?"
[Affirmative.
Please register the number of taps for each birth treasure.]
"Alright.
1 for Backpack,
2 for Crystal
3 for Unstoppable Ride
4 for Space Mirror
5 for Punishnt Stick
6 for Judge Hamr
7 for Pot
8 for Star Fusion
9 for Notebook
10 for Divine dkit
11 for Glass of Knowledge
12 for Prison Cage
13 for Assassin Knife
14 for Unbreakable Armor
Register these for now.
I might add new ones later."
[Registering...
Testing new birth treasures' karma connection.
Connection with all treasures successfully established.]
"Alright, let's try it now."
The author's narrative has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.
Then he tapped twice to disconnect his Unstoppable Ride in the second slot, and then tapped 4 tis to activate the Space Mirror.
"Space Mirror, use the token's karma connection and find the bird."
A mont later, a small passage opened in front of him to a place with clouds everywhere.
It was similar to the manager's place on the cultivation planet, but all the clouds were gray in color, evoking a sense of depression.
Little Mortal jumped up excitedly!
"My tapping thod worked!"
[...]
The guardian token was speechless.
Not because of the tapping thod, but the number of treasures he had!
And there was even a new one that it didn't know about!
Star Fusion!
The famous and feared treasure of the God of Explosion!
Little Mortal peered to the other side through the hole.
He saw two creatures on the other side.
One was a man with the head of a bird and two white wings, sitting on an altar with his eyes closed.
The other creature was a fluffy black wolf with two bat wings on its back.
It was chained to the sa altar where the birdman was sitting.
Little Mortal asked in confusion,
"Who's that wolf?"
The guardian token answered,
[Planet manager...]
Little Mortal gasped,
"Passive 'fate' skill again?
So overpowered?
But wait, how can a level 5 be there?
Isn't the max level here 3, and the manager level 4?"
[A higher being force field, or domain, can ignore this law by one level on planets disconnected from any universe.]
"Oh... And this planet is shared with everyone to find lost planets because of its uniqueness.
Alright, forget about that!"
Little Mortal shook his head in disappointnt,
as if he was dissatisfied with the world law not working properly and being useless.
The token didn't dare to say you are a lawbreaker yourself.
Little Mortal asked,
"Do you have the planet's map?"
[Affirmative.]
"Let's print it. We should act secretly!"
....
High up in the sky, sowhere in a mass of dark clouds, the Night Planet manager was in its own thoughts, while looking at the planet down below.
To be exact, it was looking at Xena, who was exploring a certain ruin.
But it shook its head.
She wasn't the one... She was powerful, but like her mother, and nothing more, even slightly weaker than her.
It just didn't know how she survived the four fake angles and faked her death.
It saw her die there, but she was outside later, without even a scratch on her...
While wondering to itself, a passage opened a couple of ters away from it!
A little barefoot boy in black clothes walked in,
and with a cheeky smile on his face,
started tiptoeing towards it as if he was trying to be sneaky!
The 'Night Manager' looked at the top of the altar
and saw the guy up there was utterly oblivious of his arrival!
The Night Manager looked at him with wide-open eyes as he drew closer to it.
It daredn't move!
Soone coming here without that angel noticing?
In a god's field?
Definitely a higher being!
And not an average one!
It gulped nervously when the little boy arrived in front of it.
Then he took out a notebook and showed it a sentence.
[Can I beco a candidate for the guardian position?]
And a chanical voice sounded in its mind,
[Guardian Mortal, an official mber of the Guardian Association.
He is the current guardian of the planet Cultivation,
with a score of 100/100.]
The wolf's jaw dropped!
This toddler was here to beco a planet guardian?
Guardian of the planet that is hunting them?
Is he crazy?
Do I care if his score is 100?
So it shook its head repeatedly.
Little Mortal smiled and nodded while flipping to another page,
[Any last words?]
"..."
That's it?
Is he going to kill ?
It even saw the token on his waist change into a silver knife that just looking at it hurt its eyes!
It knew well he was going to kill it right here and right now!
A planet that was basically the sworn enemy of guardians, as valuable as it was for others,
It was opposite for guardians!
There was only one path in front of it!
So it nodded its head repeatedly!
The little boy smiled in satisfaction, then flipped to the previous page.
[Can I beco a candidate for the guardian position?]
The scared wolf nodded.
The chanical voice sounded in its head again.
[Candidate Mortal is now officially starting his journey to beco the guardian of Night Planet.]
Little Mortal smiled and patted the wolf's head.
Then he took out the planet's map and showed another sentence in his notebook.
[Mark the altars and any place related to the outsiders, especially the ones you don't have access to.
Mark the outsiders too, so my people can arrest them when the ti cos.]
The Night Manager, who could feel the whole planet like its own body,
obediently marked everything that it thought was necessary.
All of the outsiders, of any level, had a mark on them that the guardian token could find imdiately.
After that,
Little Mortal played with its fluffy hair for a while and then left after showing it another sentence.
[I won't be here for the guardian ceremony.
My token will be the one representing .]
The Night Manager looked at the closing passage, speechless.
It felt like a storm was coming...
Then it rembered Cassandra asking it a question about whether she was only being visited by Rayan or if anybody else had t her tonight.
And after that, Rayan went to the altar and sent a ssage to the angel here...
This little invisible boy appeared not long after.
So, was all of this connected?
It suddenly rembered Xena's fake death, too!
Was it him?
But how could he, a higher being, even descend here?
That was impossible...
The Night Manager had many things to think about now.
...
Little Mortal appeared in the underground cave again.
He opened the map and looked at it.
"Alright, let's start from here."
Then he changed the connection,
"My Unstoppable Ride, and 'Boom Boom', it's ti to work!"
Then he looked around and nodded,
"Alright, Boom Boom, give your weakest explosive bomb."
A small red orb as big as a grape appeared in his hand, and he buried it under the altar.
"Okay, let's go.
We have many places to go."
The guardian token changed into his tricycle, and he rode it towards the underground wall.
A path opened in the wall, and he left while muttering,
"The 'make an impact' condition is easy here,
and if I beco a family head, the matter of followers and special force should be fine.
But how?"
While wondering, he rode away into the darkness of the underground towards the following marked location on the map.
