Millennium Tension

Chapter 47: A Gift Of Your Dreams



'Brother Aizen, what do you think of the three girls earlier?' Ana asked through their minds as they entered the dining room at the 'Cozy Inn'.

"They are quite vigilant and considerate, at least for the moment they have no bad intentions." Aizen just answers casually as if he doesn't really think about it, but he actually anticipated a lot of things.

'Fufu... Is that so? Are they still so young and have good talent? Aren't you interested, Master Aizen?' Axel returned a little teasing.

The three of them knew that the three girls in white and blue had good talent before. The girl who led had already reached [Rank 6], and the two girls who followed had already been in [Rank 5]. Such a high ranking in their teens is very high when compared to other cultivators.

Every cultivator has a limit of their body or spirit to cultivate. So, it's not surprising to see people who can no longer improve their cultivation ranks because they have reached their limits.

'What are you saying, Axel. I'm not someone like that...' Aizen smiled wryly from his half-face mask.

The dining room is located right beside the receptionist lobby where Ms. Han is currently located and is directly connected to the kitchen behind the receptionist.

Ms. Han seems to be preparing something at the reception desk, so Aizen ignores it beforehand.

Now the three of them sat at one of the round tables in the dining room, while little Xiao immediately approached them with a menu book.

"Big Brother and Big Sisters! You're here!" Little Xiao cheerfully welcomed Aizen's group. She is still 12 years old but has been passionately helping her parents in their work.

Despite feeling strange about a small inn that has no employees and is only managed by a family of three, Aizen only dismissed the thought after seeing only six rooms on the second floor that had been booked.

"Well, little Xiao. Is the kitchen ready to make our order?" Aizen asks as a pleasantry while receiving a menu from her before distributing it to Ana and Axel.

"Un! My dad has cooked some but is also waiting for you to order your chosen dish. What kind of dinner do you want to have?"

"Is that so? Hmm... Give us a moment."

Aizen, Ana, and Axel see a list of dishes that they don't even know about just because of the names in the menu book.

Because of this, they asked little Xiao about the dish they wanted to order several times. Until finally they decided on the dish of their choice.

After receiving the order, little Xiao immediately told her Dad who was in the kitchen to immediately prepare the dishes in question.

A few moments passed calmly and peacefully until the dish was brought by Little Xiao Dad.

"This is your order, Young Master and two Young Mistresses. I am the cook here and father of little Xiao, you can call me, Mr. Guo." Pak Guo puts three dishes and three drinks into each order before introducing himself.

"You are so polite. Nice to meet you, Mr. Guo." Aizen only replied for pleasantries. Then, Mr. Guo returned to the kitchen.

Because only Aizen's group chose to eat dinner, and no other visitors will stay at this time, little Xiao came to join Aizen's group while carrying her dinner.

When Aizen takes off his half-face mask and the two girls take off their veils, little Xiao looks impressed and stunned.

"Big Brother, you are so handsome. And your Big Sisters are so beautiful..." Little Xiao praised while looked at them with her innocent face.

"Fufu... You innocent girl." Axel with a friendly smile stroked little Xiao's hair. While Aizen and Ana smiled too, they would be fine being seen by an innocent girl and would not cause problems, it would be different if a cultivator saw them.

Their dinner is warm and delicious with typical simple dishes and a homely atmosphere. Aizen asks a few things about the dish to little Xiao who sits at the same table as them.

Little Xiao was quite knowledgeable and answered several questions about the dish. The dish in question contains a small part of spirit power to increase the ability of people who enjoy it, although not much can be expected from [Rank 1] of flora or fauna resources.

Whereas little Xiao joins the three of them just because Aizen's group is very friendly to her, then she asks for stories about the world outside the city wall after the four of them finished their dinner.

Even though law and order are still valid and not many do anything rude, most visitors are not friendly.

Aizen, Ana, and Axel generously told stories about the dangers and beauty of the outside world, while little Xiao listened eagerly.

"So that's why you shouldn't get out of the protection of the city and from your parents' supervision until you have enough strength, ok?" Aizen ends their story with little Xiao.

"Un! I will listen to Big Brother! The world outside the walls is very dangerous, so I will only come out when I become a great cultivator like you!" Little Xiao nodded adorably.

Everyone will begin to be able to cultivate when the power of their spirits is awakened and it can happen in different ages, some can cultivate from a young age and some cannot cultivate at all even until they die.

Aizen scans Xiao's innocent little body and looks deep into her soul's energy fluctuations. He saw the purity of the soul possessed by a young girl before him.

Unfortunately, even though her soul is beautiful but she hasn't awakened her spirit to cultivate, even if she might be able to cultivate in a few more years, she might only be stuck at [Rank 3], just like her parents.

Because of this, Aizen gently stroked little Xiao's long brown hair while manipulating his energy to trigger the awakening of Little Xiao's spirit power slowly, Aizen also increased Little Xiao's ability to reach [Rank 5] or [Rank 6] as a limit which was originally only in [ Rank 3].

Little Xiao felt very comfortable when stroked on her hair, she closed her brown eyes as if she was enjoying while a little purring.

Once finished, Aizen pulled back his hand while little Xiao who was no longer stroked immediately opened her big-looking eyes because of her little face to stare at Aizen's face as if she wanted more.

"Hehe... What's with that look. I just gave you a gift of your dreams." Aizen smiles but doesn't want to obey little Xiao's eyes who look at him with hopeful eyes.

"What gift, Big Brother?" Little Xiao has a confused face while putting one of her tiny fingers on her chin.

"You will find out later, but make sure you are always on the path that you believe in. You are extraordinary and you can achieve your dreams." Aizen provides motivation as well as advice before wearing his half-face mask.

Ana and Axel also put their veils back on their faces. The three of them want to visit an auction that will be held in the downtown area, they want to see what interesting objects will be raised after hearing the exaggerated gossip through the nano reconnaissance unit they sent earlier.

"Then thank you, Big Brother! Um, do you want to come out?" Although little Xiao didn't really understand, she knew the gift in question was a good thing, she immediately smiled broadly.

"Yes, we will visit somewhere in the downtown area. Little Xiao may continue to help your parents, maybe when we return, the inn is fully booked." Aizen responds kindly.

"Un! Be careful on the way, Big Brother and Big Sisters." Little Xiao waved her hand before returning to her task.

Aizen, Ana, and Axel walked side by side out of the 'Cozy Inn' to go to the intended auction house.
