《Re: Immortal》Chapter 29
Advertisement
It did not take long before it was Omis and Addi's turn to enter the city, as the line moved ahead Lee-Lee and her mother were the first to enter the city, not before the mother stopped and gave a respectful bow to Addi then turned towards Omis and smiled amicably.
Lee-Lee, on the other hand, kept staring at the duo with sparkling eyes, her eyes lingering over Omis for a little longer before she waved her little hand in goodbye.
Addi smiled back like a friendly old man with a slight nod, while Omis next to him grinned cheerfully as he waved back to the little girl.
"Aren't you getting a little too excited about this?" Asked Addi as he glanced back towards his partner.
"Hmm? What do you mean?" Replied Omis with a confused look, feigning ignorance.
Letting out a sigh Addi said with a voice full of sarcasm. "The oh so revered Immortal Mentor, God rank cultivator famous all across the mortal realm, acting like a little teenage boy."
Grinning Omis replied with a shrug of his shoulders, "Hey, you said we were laying low, so that's what I'm doing laying low, besides it's you who suggested this cover so take care of me, Grandpa!" He finished speaking with a giant grin plastered on his face.
Addi's mouth twitched as he looked at Omis acting like that and couldn't help but say, "You know, keep giving me that stupid grin and I might just slap it off your face, to teach you some manners of course, Grandson!" He added, empathizing on the last part with his own smirk on his face.
Glaring back at him, Omis was about to reply when the voice of the guard interrupted them.
"Next!"
Walking towards the open entrance, Omis and Addi were led to a small door for civilians on foot, the giant open door next to them was meant for horse carriages, merchants and nobles.

Passing by the small door, the duo were soon stopped by two guards.
"Please hand over your verification documents." politely asked the guard.
At that request, Omis awkwardly turned towards Addi, his eyes asking him what to do. He did not know they needed any documents to enter the city, though it would be easier to just use his cultivation base to influence the guards, however, that wouldn't quite be considered as laying low.
Addi's face was unfazed as he smiled towards the guard, his hand went towards his inner robe pockets from where he pulled out two pieces of paper and handing them to the guard.
The guard quickly read through them, before he looked back at Omis and Addi, he then asked.
"What is the purpose of your visit today grandpa?" He asked before returning the documents to Addi.
Letting out a hearty laugh, Addi grabbed Omis by the shoulder and brought him closer. "Hoho—I'm bringing my foolish grandson to see the glorious capital city!"
Nodding in understanding, the guard looked towards Omis with a proud smile before speaking, "First time visiting eh?"
"Yes! I can not wait to see the castle of the emperor up close!" Replied Omis, his eyes sparkling.
"Emperor?" The guards face suddenly turned strange as his gaze changed.
SMAAACK
The sound of Addi hitting the back of Omis's head followed by a cry of pain was quickly heard in the area, before Addi shouted.
"You ignorant child! How many times do I have to teach you that it's EMPRESS, EMPRESS, not Emperor!" quickly turning back to the guard who had a weird look on his face Addi spoke apologetically.
"Forgive this foolish child, he is still ignorant of the empress's glory, I'll be sure to properly teach him!"

"Ah, O-okay, uh you may pass." Replied the Guard with an awkward look, before he turned towards the door and shouted.
"Next!"
Addi gave another apologetic bow before grabbing Omis by the ear and dragging him away.
"Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow!"
Once they passed the entrance and were inside the city, Omis slapped Addi's hand away and started rubbing his ear.
"Damn it old man! You want to die!?" He growled.
"I just didn't want to blow our cover." smiled Addi with an innocent look on his face.
"You were enjoying that too much!"
Letting out a light smirk, Addi replied. "Maybe.."
"You bastard, just wait! You're lucky I don't want to blow our cover, or I would just obliterate your ass, to hell with the entire damn city! And how the hell am I supposed to know it's Empress, not Emperor? Wait, how the hell do YOU know it's Empress!?"
"Hmm? Obviously, when I scanned the city."
Letting out a tired sigh of defeat, Omis asked. "Forget it, what are we going to do now?"
"Well, it's been a while since I last came to the Mortal world so let's just take it easy, first we need a place to stay money should not be a problem."
"Hmm, take it easy you say. then how about opening a shop?" asked Omis, his eyes sparkling as he looked towards Addi.
"Why the hell would we want to do that? Are you dumb?" Replied Addi with a blank look on his face, as he looked at Omis like he was staring at an idiot.
Giving out a cold smile, Omis raised his fist as he covered it with his Qi and walked closer to Addi with a bone-chilling grin.
"O-Okay! OKAY! Stop! You're not dumb! You're not! Let's open a shop! That sounds like a brilliant idea!" hurriedly spoke Addi as he moved away from Omis.
Hearing Addi's approval, Omis's face regained his former amicable smile as he hugged Addi by the shoulders.
"Why didn't you say so already, Grandpa! I'm sure we would have tons of fun!"
Shaking his head in defeat Addi muttered. "Crazy bastard."
"What did you say?" asked Omis with a smile.
"Nothing! Let's just go look for a shop to rent, that shouldn't be too hard."
"After you!" replied Omis.
Soon the two figures, one old and one young delved deeper into the streets of the capital, their goal? To find a shop where they would lay low until the gate to the underworld clears.

The Gatekeeper
Quick Synopsis:This is the story of Reylor, a god-like existence who lost a great portion of his strength when accidentally sent from his “home” to another world. Making friends and learning to harness to power of magic, he maintains his commitment to his prior duty and proceeds to fight against corruption, both on a political front and against what is known as the shade.(Note, this story focuses on action and adventure, so politics are not in depth) This has been my first novel, which was primarilly inteded as a learning experience, and so it may be a bit rough in regards, but it should definitely be readable and it is a full story. I may make some adjustments to it later on, but there's no guarantee... anyhow, it's free to read, so give it a go! Also, feel free to check out my new website: aretornovels.wordpress.com
