The Geared Immortal

Chapter 838 - Going To Central Town (2)

Chapter 838

(Unedited)

…

As Shin Jiao walks out of the town administration building, a figure suddenly appears out of thin air walking beside him.

"Are you sure that you wanted to follow us?" Shin Jiao asked the woman on his side.

"Yes, I know that I might be a burden to you and your group, but I truly wish to serve you, Master Shin." Yemei Yin said.

"Hmm… Alright, since that is your wish, then I will grant it. And I also saw your resolve when you chase against those bandits. Even though you could just ignore what had happened, you still helped us. For that, I wanted to thank you." Shin Jiao said with a smile.

The two walked towards the exit of the town and soon arrive in the flying ship. Everything is already prepared and there are many people who are watching on the boundary trying to see for themselves how this magnificent object would take off and fly.

When Shin Jiao arrives being followed by a tall and slender woman with a hood and a mask, everyone on the ship's deck showed a slight smile on their faces.

"It seems that Master Shin has taken another beauty…" a mage guard said in a hushed tone towards the person next to him.

"Haha… Who do you think our master is? He is the most powerful Mage I have ever seen."

Shin Jiao and Yemei Yin went to the deck of the ship. Shin Jiao signaled for the ship pilot to move forward.

The one in front of the steering wheel of the ship in the quarterdeck is a mage who passed the assessment training in flying. He was able to familiarize himself with the mechanism of the ship and how to fly it efficiently.

Out of all the 100 of them, he scored the highest points, so right now he has the privilege to fly the ship which is an honor given to him.

Out of the 100 plus mages in this ship, there are 3 who excel in piloting the ship, so they would alternate in piloting.

As the large flying ship began to rise from the ground, the onlookers all have astounded expressions on their faces. They were all too shocked and amazed at the scene in front of them. For the first time in their life, they saw a large ship slowly hovering from the ground.

It did not take long before the ship would reach 200 meters in height, then it slowly began to move forward.

"Plot the destination to Central Town." Shin Jiao commanded.

The pilot nodded his head and began plotting on the 3D map in front of him. Beside him are other people who are in charge of the ship's radar and status monitoring of the ship.

"Master, everything is normal, we are ready to go…" the pilot said after the people beside him reported.

"Alright, full speed ahead!" Shin Jiao said with a slight smile on his face.

In his adventures and travels, it is seldom that he could have trained this kind of crew. But because of the training visor, he is able to easily teach and assess those with potential.

With his command, the ship began to move faster through the air.

The people inside the village could now see the large flying ship hovering above them in a grandiose manner. Yein Han looks outside of her office window and saw the ship leaving. A heavy feeling is inside her heart as she feels a mixture of regret, and disappointment for some unknown reason.

She was regretful that she did not help that merchant group in their crucial moment, and instead got herself caught and imprisoned.

"When I get my strength back, we will meet each other again. At that time, I will not let you down." She said it is unknown to who she is speaking to as her eyes are glued to the small pill bottle in her hands.

She closes her eyes, opens the pill bottle, and enjoyed the aroma and thick mana coming from those pills. She did not hesitate to take one pill and immediately closes her eyes. She has been longing for this chance, this opportunity to appear. She wanted to be strong once again, she did not want to be treated like a flower vase, and she wanted to get out of her older brother's grasp.

She now knew that the intent of her older brother towards her is not pure. They are blood siblings, how could he lust after her?

With this determination in her eyes, she concentrated and let the energy from that single pill circulate inside her body.

Then suddenly she feels a strange sensation before her body began to ache. Her stomach when her mana pool is located suddenly began to throb in pain. She could feel thousands of needles pricking her stomach as the pain began to intensify.

Suddenly, Yein Han could not control her body anymore as she fell to the ground writhing in agony.

But she did not want to give up. This is because, though she feels the pain, she could also feel her mana pool slowly being repaired.

She knew that he did not lie to her and that her powers could sure return after she has finished all the pills in that bottle.

…

All the people in the village have a look of disappointment in their eyes. How could they not be? The Mystique Store has brought liveliness to their lives and has given them a lot of novelties that are not seen in other villages, towns, or even in the city.

Those things which they could buy cheaply in the Arjing Village would be sold high in another village, or town, so it was a great source of income for them.

But now, everything seems to be ending and their money bag has left. And this is because of the instigation of one man. In the village, most people would give Xentong Han that despising glare. There seems to be a rumor that it was him who instigated the army to take action against the Mystique Shop.

And the reason for this is because of his jealousy.

Nobody knew who spread this rumor, but when Xentong Han heard this he smashed the table inside his house and glared in anger towards the horizon.

General Faosei Lao has secretly given him a punishment of house arrest. He is not to go out of his house for 3 months. Though it was just 3 months, yet for Xentong Han that time is equal to many years. What should he do inside his house? He would lose his mind before this punishment ended.

But he could not use force to go out. This is because his house is already surrounded by an imprisonment barrier with a set timer of 3 months.

With helplessness in his eyes, he just glared at the horizon and swore his revenge towards that person.

…

A day has passed since the flying ship left Arjing Village. Because of the request from Olivia, the ship traveled at a moderate pace. She wanted to spend two days on this flying ship before they arrive in Central Town.

She wanted to enjoy the scenery and the amenities inside the ship. And so she passes the time learning using the visor. The young woman has a knack for learning and she enjoys it too much.

After she puts down the visor, she noticed that inside her room, another figure is present.

"Ah, Master Shin! You are here! I really enjoy this thing called virtual learning. It is too amazing. I wish the schools in Main Arjing city have things like this. Learning would be fun and easy." She said with a pout.

"Miss Olivia, I wanted to talk to you about your body…" Shin Jiao said with a smile.

"Ah… What about my body? Don't tell me… Don't tell me you can fix it? If you really could, then I will do all I can for it to be fixed." She said with a determined look on her face.

"Hmm... But there is a catch. If you are truly determined, then I will do my best to fix it."

"What… what is the catch? What is the condition?"

"Equivalent exchange…"

"Equi… What? What is that?"

"Well, let me put it this way. If I change your body posture, making you be able to stand normally, it might cause you to lose your beauty. That is an equal exchange, right?" Shin Jiao said with a faint smile.

Upon hearing this, the expression of Olivia turned serious. Between the two which is more important? One is to be beautiful but repulsive in the eyes of others, the other is to be normal but ugly?

For her, this is a very tough choice.

She bit her lips and looks at her figure which is bent. Her hunchback is truly something that made her hide from the rest of the world for a long time.

"Master Shin… I… I choose to be normal. Though I will be ugly, at least I can go out normally and enjoy nature." She said with determination shining in her beautiful eyes.

Upon seeing this, Shin Jiao knew that the woman has decided.

In fact, this is only to see if she really is determined.. Because the process would cause her pain, enough pain to make her change her mind if her resolve is weak.
