Murim Recurve Chapter 143
Advertisement
Re'Kha immediately knew who to call to get the work done. It was odd hearing the voice of a man from a tiny device, but since she was inhabiting the lady in her thirties, her logical self treated it as something normal.
Once she finished the call, Re'Kha approached the two kids, "What do the two of you love to do the most?"
"Make and drive cars," The two boys replied in sync.
"Do you wish to study to make that a reality?" She smiled, seeing their expressions change from calm to confusion.
"Can we?" One of them asked with hesitation, unsure of himself.
"All you need to do is ask. Your help saved me from a lot of trouble. So, consider it your actual reward." Re'Kha pressed forth, making eye contact with them as she spoke.
"We want to make it a reality, sister." The two children shouted.
Upon hearing the familiar sound, Re'Kha smiled, motioning at her car with a smile, "Climb aboard then. I have a friend who deals with second-hand cars. He's also the owner of a technical school. I'll make you meet him."
After the two boys boarded the car, Re'Kha went around to reach her driver seat, using the chance to take out her compact mirror and look at the information.
[Quest: Set the two children on a path they desire]
[Quest Description: It was the dearest wish of Raghu and Raghav to live around cars for the rest of their lives. Pave the way to their future and allow these enthusiastic individuals to bloom in the field they are passionate about.]
[Quest Reward: 3 Prana Stones]
[Quest Duration: Till the end of exploration]
[Punishment: 7 Damage]
Re'Kha took in a sharp breath, for both the rewards and punishments were beyond what she had expected. It was then she thought of the difficulty of the task and the consequences its failure would pose.

The task was to give the two boys a future and set them on the path to a field they desired to work in. It meant to provide them education, something that wasn't cheap. Moreover, they were already 12 years old, long past the age to begin their schooling.
Failing this task meant the children would go back to their previous life, a life where they wandered around the shops in search of opportunities. They were still young and had maintained a fairly innocent take on matters till now.
But, as they grow, and their hardships increase, their innocence would evaporate slowly while they would become cunning. Their moral standing would slowly become skewed towards a path that would eventually lead them into becoming thugs.
To prevent them from suffering such a fate, a lot had to be done, not to mention the sheer capital required for something like that.
Re'Kha was embroiled in thought throughout the journey, not talking much with the two boys. The two of them didn't seem to mind as they enjoyed the ride, looking around as they saw the buildings pan quickly past them.
Soon, Re'Kha arrived before a massive shop that dealt with second-hand cars. The shop owner was already at the entrance, awaiting her visit. The moment her car stopped, he quickly approached the driver's seat and opened the door, "Ma'am, if you had called me, I myself would have come. You didn't have to trouble yourself this much."
"It's fine," Re'Kha controlled her facial expression from hardening up. It was a constant fight between her and the character she played. The moment she relaxed, the character would take over with actions executed in her way, suiting her ego.
It proved to be a lot annoying, preventing Re'Kha from thinking clearly most of the time. Still, she was glad to have obtained a Quest that she was able to solve by borrowing help from others.

The show owner quickly led them inside as he seated them in the reception. He looked at Re'Kha, asking with a respectful tone, "Ma'am, do you like any drinks?"
"I have to return to work now," Re'Kha said, or rather, the lady had said it. The mild change in her tone caused the shop owner to sweat as he quickly called forth someone, hushed him in anger for something before entering with a piece of paper.
He handed it over to Re'Kha, "I have a lawyer friend who set up a contract. Please see if it is to your wishes."
Re'Kha glanced at it once before setting it down. She took a pen and signed it. A lot of information swirled in her mind as she determined the ins and outs of the contract with a glance, deciding that it was okay to sign it.
She then stood up, and patted the two boys, "From today onwards, you can call this place your home."
Seeing the confusion of the two boys, Re'Kha pointed at the shop owner, "He would be your guardian and would take care of you. In the morning, you will be studying like every other boy your age. During the evening, you can work here to learn the craft. In the future, you will have your own car shop."
The two boys gawked in shock as Re'Kha looked at one of them with a smile, "Take care of my watch. It is valuable."
She then nodded at the shop owner and exited the building, hurrying to her car as she drove off. The boys came to a realisation only later as they sprinted out of the building, only to see the car vanish from their line of sight.
The shop owner arrived at the scene, looking at the two boys as he sighed, "This is the first time I am seeing her help someone this much. You two really lucked out for life. What exactly did you do to receive this much favour from her?"
"We just took her purse from some thugs and returned it to her." One of the boys replied, feeling a bit confused, "Maybe it is related to those papers she checked in the purse?"
"Well, either way, she already provided enough expenses until you graduate from a university." The shop owner patted their shoulders as he looked at the trail her car made.

Across the Realms [Dropped]
Disclaimer: I'll leave this on here for anyone to read. The last time I uploaded a chapter was nearly a year ago, and to all the readers who still kept their trust in me after I came back from my umpteenth hiatus, I am sorry. I will not carry on writing this; I started off without the correct foundations of a novel, nor commitment to fully finish it and I do not want to lie to you all once again. Maybe one day, I may decide to re-write the novel, with a new basis or at least a comprehensive starting point with many of the narrative errors cleared up; but, till then, this is goodbye. And, once again, thank you for the motivation you gave me. Even now, I see many emails come through with people commenting. Goodbye. A child blessed by the Astral. An unprecedented destiny. Watch his path, as he marches up the stairway of Heaven. A March of a Sovereign. [Adventure, Wuxia, Martial Arts, Fantasy] This is a Qihuan novel; it has eastern and western fantasy elements. More often than not in Xianxia or Xuanhuan there is a severe lack of character development, being a western writer I'm changing that. My characters, from my totally unbiased view, feel fleshed out and actually have emotions. This is my first attempt at a novel, I'm writing as a means to better convey my thoughts. I will, hopefully, steadily improve chapter-by-chapter. I'm very open to feedback and constructive criticism. As one can see this is a cultivation novel, so you know how this goes. I've decided to jump-start the whole rags-to-riches scenario. He is strong from the start and is given the utility to do so. *The cover art is not my own, all rights reserved to the owner. I will take it down if necessary. *The style of the recent chapters is comparatively different than Chapter 1.
