Every World Seems Not Quite Right Chapter 23

Little Shao Qian that arrived at the Illusionary Mist Forest

"Mm. I understand." Shao Qian fastened the small cloth bag onto his body and crawled out from the hole, looking towards the outside. "Then, daddy, you need to come back earlier to find me."

"Daddy promises." The man knelt on the floor and waved at Shao Qian, "Come darling, say bye bye to daddy."

"Bye bye, daddy." Once Shao Qian said that, he saw the man putting the gra.s.s back into its original place. He tilted his head, looking up at the thick wall, before he left, his head not turning back even once. Right now, he needed to find a safe place to check this world's plot and see what kind of world the system had randomly selected.

The man looked reluctantly at the thick city wall. His child was on the other side of that wall, he really wanted to go back. Although, in that place it was survival of the fittest, where the weak are prey of the strong, but they didn't have man's intrigue for power, and furthermore,  also didn't have mankind's cold-blooded ruthlessness.

Since Jesse had his blood, those lowly animals wouldn't dare touch him, and the higher-rank magic beast, upon not making it clear whether or not he was returning yet, would not arbitrarily launch an attack on his young. Right now, the illusionary forest that is constantly feared and abandoned by everyone, on the contrary, is a safe place that Jesse is able to go to.

Although in his heart, he wanted to return, he also couldn't give up on his gentle and frail wife. He must return and save her, even if she's dead, he'll follow his wife to death.

"Be safe, my child. Your father is the strongest in this illusionary forest, so daddy believes that you will definitely become strong, that's why live on." The man looked at the thick city wall one last time , before resolving to leave.

But, when he arrived at his destination, he discovered his wife was nailed onto a crucifix, both her arms and legs were impaled onto the crucifix with wood stakes. However the cause of her death weren't  those, but the peg in the middle of her neck that ran directly through her windpipe.

"Look, this cowardly and weak beast dared to return." An obese man dressed in Vatican clothing made great effort to open his eyes, which had been squeezed shut by his fats, pompously laughing, "I still thought he took that little beast and ran away."

"Your Excellency, I did say that so long as this woman is still here, this beast would certainly return." The clergyman next the obese man opened his mouth and flattered, "When we catch him, how could we not find that little beast?"

"I want to kill all of you." The man looked at the woman nailed onto the crucifix with a calm expression, and after saying this sentence, his line of sight turned towards that obese Bishop, as well as his calm expression being replaced with violent rage, a black pattern also gradually appeared on his forehead.

"Look, he's actually a high-level magic beast," The obese Bishop looked at the man's furious expression along with the gradually appearing pattern, and let out a sound of admiration, "I didn't expect that this brawny man is actually one of the elegant and famous high-rank magic beasts."

"In front of the Bishop, how can this kind of beast be called the word 'elegant'?" The man beside the Bishop hurriedly spoke, "This subordinate feels that this word was created for you."

"Mn." The Bishop proudly nodded his head upon hearing those words, "Someone come, burn that woman using holy fire. This kind of person that disrespects the deity, we can only use the holy fire's scorching heat to wash away the stains on her body."

"Don't touch her." The man's clothing burst, and after that, his four limbs became those of a more than three metre big, black interspersed with white, giant creature.

That creature's tail swept away a few man close by, before he faced the crucifix the woman was nailed onto and lunged.

When the obese Bishop saw this creature, he put his sorcery into good use, hurriedly hiding himself at one side. He also didn't stop the creature's action, only coldly watching as the creature lunged. A trivial beast that had feelings as if it were human, don't make him laugh till his molars fall out.

When the creature lunged towards the crucifix, the floor lit up in a restraining array and the creature's body was firmly tied onto the ground. He looked at his love, his wife that was well within reach, his face pale as he howled furiously.

"Start the array, immediately kill this beast, get people to collect his blood and find for that little thing's whereabouts." Magic beasts responded to bloodline. Originally, he had wanted to catch the man and force him to hand over that little hybrid, but now, it looks like finding that little hybrid's whereabouts didn't matter. So long as he offered this magic beast corpse, as well as the magic nucleus, to the Cardinal, he could leave this little place and head towards the main city as an Oracle.

When the creature heard the Bishop's words, he looked reclautantly at his wife that wasn't breathing , and in the end, gathered the last of his energy together, choosing to self-destruct. Magic beast self-destruction wasn't the same as humans, after they self-destructed, it was ashes to ashes, dust to dust, he definitely wouldn't leave behind a trace of anything……

But, he was incapable of fulfilling his promise to his son.

When that Bishop saw the creature howl at the sky, his heart felt panicked, and when he saw the creature starting to inflate, he hurriedly retreated, but, how could his speed compared to the speed of the explosion ?

The Bishop didn't manage to escape very far before his life was harvested by the formidable explosion. It was not only him, everyone on the scene didn't manage to keep their lives, and the originally flat ground had a crater blasted into it.

A good while later, the remainder of the explosion slowly dispersed, the dust drifting  in the air also slowly floated down onto the ground. It was at this moment that an elegant figure emerged gracefully from within the cloud of dust, wearing solely white, to the extent where there wasn't even a speck of dust on the clothes, her face was surprisingly that of the woman that had been nailed onto the crucifix.

"Humph! Something that did more harm than good." That female's face was filled with anger and the harshness in her words were hard to keep down, "It had seemed like this old woman was about to succeed, I hadn't thought that at the most critical juncture, that thing would destroy it, if not, this old lady would have taken that little thing as my Beast Contract earlier."

But, the matter was already concluded, even if she were to brood over it, it wouldn't be of any use, and even if she wanted to find for him, she didn't know where to look. Moreover, just now, she didn't come out of the explosion without injury, right now she should quickly find a place and tend to her wounds.

As for what happened outside, Shao Qian would naturally be oblivious to it. He applied his soul power onto his feet as he hurried with all his might, and with great difficulty, he found a large tree that could conveniently hide him and scurried inside, looking for a concealed place he could hide in. He used his soul power to mask his odour before lying down on the huge forked branch and taking a look at the plot.
However, Shao Qian who was immersed in the plot was not aware that after he had lost conscience, the trunk suddenly grew an elderly face. That elderly face revealed a lost expression as he looked at the small child lying on his arm, this cub smelled familiar, but…… whose family is it?
The Treant thought for a while, but still wasn't able to think of any family whose cub was this  big and could also transform, but at the very beginning, that familiar smell nevertheless felt wrong, so the Treant with a gentle nature immediately concealed Shao Qian's location completely, to avoid those reckless birds from injuring the cub.
Shao Qian went over the plot of this world, this was a Western Fantasy world, where angels and demons coexisted. This world's original owner was this pitiful eight-year old whose both parents had been killed, and upon growing up, he took revenge on the Vatican, before he took his life in the end.

Mn, it finished this way.

Finished, your a.s.s! At that time when he had crossed over, the original owner was already eighteen years old, and he already knew some Alchemy, even though he didn't know who he learnt it from. Right now, he had arrived a decade earlier, what kind of sinister plot is this? System, come out and tell me, I promise I won't kill you.
System expresses that I am currently not complete, therefore I am unable to inquire about such an in-depth thing, therefore, whatever Master had said, system completely doesn't know about it.

It seemed like getting an explanation from the system wasn't possible. However, Shao Qian's current circ.u.mstances, on contrary, was incomparable. He had always remembered the Alchemy he had learnt at that time, if not then he really didn't know how he was going to learn the Alchemy skill.

Shao Qian opened his eyes listlessly, sitting up slowly and looked up to see a wrinkled, old face growing from the tree trunk. That elderly face even grinned at him.

"……" Shao Qian stiffly curled the corner of his lips and returned the smile, before standing up, intending on jumping down. Motherf.u.c.ker! Scared this young master to death, your old face is made out of tree bark and yet you still smile, this was simply wanting to scare children to death!

Shao Qian was able to jump down? Too naive. He had just ran to the edge of the tree trunk and was about to jump down when a tree branch curled around him and placed him onto the soft leaves, "Little guy, don't be scared. Grandpa doesn't have any evil intention."

The Treant grandpa that just saw the cub waking up and wanted to show his goodwill expressed his hurt, the Treant tribe were this gentle, why was this little fellow so scared of him?
