《Death… And Me》Death... And Me

Seeing Rean leaving just like that didn't bother Folca. He knew what Rean wanted to do. Simply put, Rean needed a background before starting any negotiation. The Damalu Sect just so happened to be a perfect one.
'Hehe! You dare talk about passing or not? If someone like you fail to pass the Damalu Sect Entrance Exam, then the others will only waste their time there.'
Folca turned around and returned to his job. He knew that Rean would definitely come back. He will see what Rean has to say when that time comes.
This was Rean's biggest problem. The Varen Tribe could only do so much in the place it was located. Astreg City is, after all, a remote area with limited access to things. But if Rean uses this workshop instead, things would get much easier.
The Zafa Bank would be okay as long as they get their share of the money, the metals produced by his Varen Tribe are ultimately theirs to use as they see fit.
'Anyway, I will see what I can do after the Exam is over.'
Rean then returned to the hotel where his group was staying. Because there were too many kids and their family members coming for the exam this time, the number of rooms was limited. It wasn't after Alanda offered 50 Spirit Stones per day that they finally got one room.
Alanda's heart bled as he gave the Spirit Stones over. He even thought about sleeping outside with the kids while they waited for the exam to come. But after thinking that they passed several days outside already, he changed his mind. The exam was coming soon, and it was better to let Rean, Roan, and Inna have a proper rest in the next few days.
Alanda couldn't be blamed for thinking like that. Until a few years ago, 50 Spirit Stones were a great fortune for any warrior in the Varen Tribe. Even though it is only Rank One Spirit Stones, it is still a treasure for them. Suddenly, he needed to pay 50 of those per day just to have a nice room to sleep. How could he not feel pain after that?

Rean noticed that he was the only one in the room, so he simply sat on the bed and began to cultivate.
On Roan's side, he had finally finished looking through all the manuals. As he was leaving the room, Leu appeared while showing an excited expression.
"I tested out your Three Claws of the Dragon. The meridians path that you created is indeed excellent. Even an Energy Gathering Realm cultivator would be able to use it."
"However, I noticed that your manual was called Death Style Third Form. Does it mean you have the other two forms? Or perhaps later forms as well?"
Roan smiled before nodding.
"I do, but they are my personal skills. I can't simply divulge them this easily. It was because you allowed me to look at all the Weapon Skills that I let you look at that one of mine."
Leu nodded.
"I imagined as much. However, is there nothing you would want to exchange for them? Our Cultivation Treasure Pavillion has a lot more to offer than just skill manuals. In fact, this is just a branch. Depending on what you want, I don't mind contacting the Headquarters to have your wishes fulfilled."
Roan was surprised to hear that. He knew almost nothing about the outside world. He had only selected this shop because it was the biggest one. He didn't expect that this was only a branch.
"That's very tempting. However, I don't want anything else other than skill manuals at the moment. Let's see... I'm going to take part in the Damalu Sect Exam entrance, so I won't be able to spend more time here. I need to practice and get ready for it. Maybe I will stop by once I'm done with it. How about that?"

Leu nodded.
"That is more than enough. Although I won't say something that the skills I can get are better than the Dalamu Sect, at least you won't need credits to see them. As long as we conclude the trade, you can have them straight away."
The word credits made Roan puzzled for a second. But he soon understood what Leu meant.
"I see, this Dalamu Sect restricts the access to the skill manuals, am I right?"
Leu was the one to get surprised this time.
"Wait, you didn't know?"
Roan shook his head. How would he know something like that back in the Varen Tribe? It was simply impossible.
"I didn't, but now I do. Anyway, it does make sense for them to have such a system. Once I get inside, I can check how it works."
Roan then made his way through the door when suddenly, something came flying in his direction.
However, it wasn't anything dangerous. It was a green token with the image of a turtle carrying a merchant backpack.
"This is?"
Leu smiled before explaining.
"It's our Cultivation Treasure Shop Token. As long as you show it to any of our branches around the Jialin Country, you can get a 10% discount on almost all products."
Roan didn't have much interest, but he recognized that Rean might make good use of it. Besides, it was evident that Leu was trying to create some good ties with him.
'He probably thinks that I have some hidden background. Well, this is also good for my side.'
"Thanks, it will be very useful."
After Roan left, an employee came close to Leu to ask.
"Should we have someone following him?"
Leu immediately shook his head.
"That won't be necessary. That kid is anything but simple, so we better not take the risk."
The employee nodded his head and retreated.
Leu also looked in the direction that Roan left while pondering.
'His confidence, he was simply fearless as if no one would ever dare to touch him. As for this technique, if the enemy doesn't know about it beforehand, you might win the fight in the very first clash. I can feel the vicious thoughts behind the creation of this thing.'
Leu then laughed a little.
'Interesting.'

Rebirth
Rebirth, the process of being reborn. Why does it happen and who really qualifies. We will seek to look into the these questions by following the life of Richard as we experiences this process first hand. We will follow his life and his fight against the evil blue boxes and what comes with all of them. ------------------------------- Update 04-24-18 Just ran a spelling and grammar check on the existing chapters and corrected a lot of little issues. ------------------------------- Just so you know, do not expect detailed sex scenes, or a lot of gore and such. Profanity is probably a given, I added the tag today....I mean you've seen how the Blue Box God talks....I'm shocked our MC has keep his cool so far. Also just FYI, I've got the entire per chapter outline complete for what will end up being book 1. That being said I've discovered over the years that a good outline lasts until you begin to wrote the chapter out. What that means is that even with a good outline because I tend to rethink thing out 4 or 5 times while I write them that it can hold up a chapter from being released. I'd rather hold up a story to make it flow better than rush something out. So while you might see at times a very aggressive release rate, at times you might wonder what happened to me because I've stopped posting. The reason being that after I wrote the chapter I decided it either sucked, didn't flow right or I just decided the direction things were headed no longer seemed right. So I'll stop, review and decide if I need to rewite all of the outlines to changes things up and then rewrite the chapter, or possibly go back and make changes to older chapters if needed. By the way, if I ever decide something needs to change, I will let you know which chapters changed and I'll give you a quick outline of the changes so you can skip the reread if you want. Yes a lot of this story will be told from the third person prespective, though we will listen to Richard tell his story. Expect a lof of behind the scene components. I've never published here before so expect it to take me a try or 2 to get an understanding of the formatting and such. Also I do not post a schedule. Sorry but real life always comes first but I will try and get things steddy.
