《Moonlight Sword Sect》The Sect Master Of The Moonlight Sword Sect (2/2)
Advertisement
After drawing out the shape of a crescent moon above the pouch, I silently wait and begin praying for the pouch to open successfully.
*Klang!* The pouch once again made a sound which is different from before.
It was a success.
With the pouch now unlocked, I slowly open the pouch, revealing nothing but a color of pitch black inside the pouch.
Although it looks like there's nothing inside the pouch, if one uses a "spiritual consciousness" or "spiritual eye," the contents inside the pouch changes and reveals a miniaturized form of treasures and artifacts.
Without being said, I send a wisp of my consciousness inside the pouch, hoping to find the one I needed for the event that will partake right now.
Instantly, my surroundings change from being above the sky to a white hall with swords, artifacts, and treasures lying neatly around me.
Although my vision changed, I can still control my two other bodies if someone tried to foolishly attack me.
I quickly scan the area around me. From ancient books to legendary swords, I scanned them all. Although these books and items are beneficial to the disciples of other fellow masters of the sect, giving them is like giving a child a huge burden.
Also, that old man would be angry.
After scanning the entire area, I head in a particular direction. As I walk to my destination, I simply glance at the treasures from time to time. One noticeable feature is that everything is placed neatly in order. It seems old man Lu is truly obsessed with cleaning.
It's a pity he always nag though.
While walking, I finally see the item that I need. It was a statue wearing a white coat. As I go in front of the statue, I was mesmerized by the outfit the statue was wearing. It was a coat with very intricate designs and patterns with multiple gemstones over it. One can even feel how strong the coat's aura is despite that there's no one wearing it except for the statue itself.
"How did old man Lu got this seemingly otherworldly treasure?" I asked myself. This is something that even those old bastards at the other sects would usually fight for. Even I, the current sect master, is not deemed to be worthy of using treasure.
But who cares, the wedding is more important than being worthy or not.
I continue gazing at it for before using it. There's no really need to rush as time flows differently here. One second outside is equivalent to a minute here so I can continue gazing at it without anyone bothering at me.
Though it affects my vision outside.
The designs of the coat were a bunch of flowers at the bottom part of the coat and a cloud at the middle and top part of the coat. The petal part of the flowers are embedded with void gemstones, making the flowers sewn on the coat look dark violet.
Meanwhile, there were some gold lines on the cuffs and neck part of the coat, making the wearer feel like a noblesse or even a royal sovereign.
At the chest part of the coat lies a pure dark violet circle surrounded by clouds being sucked by the circle.
Seemingly endless, I gaze at the absolute darkness within the circle. Although It was just a void gemstone, one could feel the terrifying aura of the circle just by looking.

After all, this void gemstone is the product of condensed void tribulation; The tribulation where I nearly died.
Anyways, let's continue talking about the details of the coat.
Despite being a coat, there is a pair of pauldrons over the shoulder part of the coat, with the pauldrons being supreme condensed void Qi crystals instead of a normal metal one.
Oh how rich one must be to buy these kinds of crystals? With that size of void Qi crystal, I can only buy 7 at most.
Though all of my money will be depleted in turn.
Also, over the shoulder part lies a tippet with the symbol of an eclipse woven in the middle part of it. There were also gold patterns at the edge part of the tippet, making one elegant.
Finally, at the back of the coat lies the Moonlight Sword Sect symbol with each of the moon phases surrounding it. Each moon phases were embedded by a white or black gem while the sect symbol is very different— It was a crimson one, like a blood moon.
As I keep looking at every detail of the coat, I switch my consciousness' vision from inside the pouch to the hall of light. Luke and the girl were are nearing the hall gates.
Fortunately, there were huge amounts of my fellow cultivators buying or bustling around so the two had no choice but to only move slower.
Oh right, I about to tell you about why is there so many cultivators bustling around.
Well, this day is the day the emperor of the Harruth Empire will be wed to one of the masters within the sect.
Since I couldn't be bothered about the two being in-love, I granted both of them my permission to be wed. If they're in love with each other, who am I to stop them right? Oh!
I see now why Luke wants to have a marriage with the girl! I see now. Hahaha! Truly a genius!
Should I give both of them a marital gift? Hmm…
If I gave them old man Lu's items…
Hopefully, he won't mind since Luke is a descendant of his.
Yes, I should give them my gifts. And then after they raise the child, I can finally let my heart in peace as I rub my face against my nephew's child.
I hope their child would be as cute as me hahahaha!
Anyways, I have to hurry out and change my outfit. I cannot let Luke's marriage fall into ruins!
Everything needs to be perfect!
I once again, switch my consciousness' vision from the hall to the pouch.
I quickly undress the statue and take the coat as I go from each section of the area, taking everything suitable for Luke and the girl's cultivation.
From a cultivation technique to a weapon, I took them all and returned to my persona.
After returning to my persona while taking the coat and some books and weapons with me, I throw the pouch away. Instead of landing on the floor, the pouch instead vanishes.
The pouch was once again, in the void space created by the old man Lu.
*Iiiiinggg….." The door creaks slowly, implying that someone is opening it.
"Crap! They're here already! I need something to cover me! Lux Influx!" I said to myself.

Luke and the girl were here already! How are they so fast?!
Is it because of my meticulous choices when picking up items that made me slower than usual?
Argh damn it! I still hadn't changed yet!
However, as soon as I said Lux Influx, A myriad of light enveloped me, preventing anyone from seeing me. In a short span of time, I quickly place the marital gifts inside my pouch as I quickly undress before wearing the eclipse coat.
"It's so bright in here." I heard a feminine voice. It was the second realm girl.
What a lucky girl she is for having a lovely husband.
"Sect master, we are now here." I also heard Luke's voice. You too are also lucky for having such a wife.
May fate bless you two.
Despite me not being fully dressed yet, I lowered the brightness of the light for the sake of the girl.
No one can take such brightness after all.
"Eh? We are above the sky?" The girl asked.
Thankfully she isn't scared of being above.
I think she can become a promising cultivator one day.
"Please be at ease, Ms. Xiare. This is nothing but a reflection of what's happening outside. Everything that happens outside is sent into this hall." Luke replied.
Oh how nice of you Luke to reply calmly but why are you calling your wife Ms. Xiare?
You're too kind for your own good!
Also, It seems that the girl's name is Xiare.
"Oh haha…" Xiare replied back with a cute laugh.
"Please be patient for the sect master as he may be doing something." Luke spoke to Xiare, with a calm tone on his words.
Well, your uncle is truly sorry huhu…
After a few seconds, I finally wear the coat and added some floating crystals and a floating cape around me. I also wore my crown as I want to last an impression to both of them.
Although I'm wearing my crown, It could be technically said "hovering" above my head. Yes, the crown is also floating. I too am floating.
I look like old man Shi now hahaha!
Slowly, I lift my spell off, causing the entire hall to loosen up the light made by my skill.
As I unveil myself, I use my invisible third eye and began taking a closer look at both of them.
Both of them were amazed with Xiare having an amazed face with her mouth open wide and Luke having his eyes closed while having a simple smile.
Oh come on Luke, you know your uncle is awesome.
And handsome too, don't forget that.
Besides, why are you wearing your knight uniform in the middle of your wedding?! Do you have no shame looking at yourself? Take a look at your future or now wife! Look! She's much more prepared than you!
How foolish!
After finally unveiling myself, I close off my third eye and began looking with them with my two eyes. Luke opens his eyes again and steps forward and said, "Sect master, this is Xiare." Of course, I know that based on your conversations. Just cut to the chase already. Don't be like that old fart Lu!
As Luke said those words, Xiare immediately notice her mouth was open and quickly close it off. See? Even your wife is amazed by my appearance. Truly amazing.
With that being said, I replied back. However, Luke was faster than me, saying, "I have now completed my mission. I need to go back to the outpost. Sorry for troubling the both of you." Luke then bowed at me and at Xiare and slowly left the hall.
Eh?
W-w-w-wait what? Go back at the outpost? What do you mean go back to the outpost? Are you leaving your wife already?
Is marriage really that fast within these days? What the heck?! No one told me about it!
"Wait a minute." I replied back. You can't just leave your wife behind. How could you?
As soon as Luke heard those words, he stops walking and began kneeling at me. Eh? Are you really that dense Luke? Please don't be like your grandfather who's always dense.
"What is it sect master?" Luke asked. There were no signs of anger or malice at his voice. Just pure confusion.
Whaaaat? Are you really dense enough to rival even those densest liquids in the world?
I can't believe this.
"What mission?" I ask in a serious tone. Although there's pressure in it, I can feel Xiare's heart palpitating loudly. For fuck's sake damn it.
However, as soon as I heard Luke's reply, I became confused about what's happening.
"Eh? I thought the mission was to get Xiare here? The contents are clearly written in the scroll?" Luke tilts his head before replying at me. After replying, Luke opens his pouch and pulls the scroll inside his pouch.
As I became more and more confused, Luke suddenly rose up and presented the scroll to me. I then took the scroll up using my "phantom hand" and opened the scroll in front of me.
Indeed it was my scroll. So too is my handwriting. So… why is Luke desperate to get out of here?
"Greetings cultivator Xiare, I, the sect master, Jin Luna of the Moonlight Sword Sect, have some favor to ask of you. Meet me in the hall where the moon shines brightly. A reward will be given if as soon as you complete the favor I ask of you." Luke recited the scroll's contents loudly.
This is the content inside the scroll.
Wait…
Shouldn't be this scroll be at Hyare right now?
I then look at Luke and said, "Shouldn't be this scroll was to be sent to Hyare?"
Instead of being guilty about it, Luke instead tilts his head in confusion.
What?
Why do you so confused?
I should be the one confused here…
"Hyare? But the contents inside the scroll states that Xiare is the receiver of the scroll."
W-w-w-ait. How is your wife now dragged onto this? Wait… This is too confusing for the good ol' me.
As I was so confused by the situation, I blurted out something that they will never forget in their entire lifetime.
"Shouldn't be Xiare your wife?"
"Eh?"
"Eh?"
"Eh?" I too also asked the same question.

Dungeon Scholar
Girl meets dungeon. What could go right? A story of a good-hearted Scholar driven by her compassion and curiosity. She might be a little combat averse, but um, isn't that only logical? Love me a good grimdark, but sometimes I want to read feel-good fiction that isn't pure action, romance, or comedy. The plot and characters of Dungeon Scholar won't be all happy and fluffy, and the world will be more dungeons and monsters than rainbows and puppies, but overall the sweet moments should overshadow the bitter. Let's say three dollops of sugar for every pinch of salt, with lemon slices left on the saucers? Enjoy. Note: This is NOT a typical dungeon story. If you are here for the dungeon aspect, then fair warning this will seem incredibly slow-burn to you. The dungeon will eventually become the most important 'character,' arguably, or the second-most important narratively, but you might jump out the window in frustration long before that happens. At its heart, the story's core remains 'girl meets dungeon,' not 'dungeon meets world.' (To be clear, this does or will have a plot! It's just the more conventional story-like elements contribute to Rowena Loress's greater story, not the other way around; no conflict takes center stage until it becomes personally significant to her. Meanwhile, have some Slice of Life.) Updates every Friday Cover made using Waifulabs Written using 4thewords (referral code: UZJRY55368)

NOVA INTERIT.US
It's 2063, and the town along with much of the nation are in disarray. The decay started years before the Great Event. Our town still had hope thanks to the five families, who'd created a blockchain based water distribution system for the locals, a valuable secret hidden from the Global Water Commission and their network of mercenaries. Earlier in the mid-2040's, right after the state secessions of Idaho, Montana, and Texas, the Global Council of Water Commissioners made their deals and moved into towns throughout the country. They called it "the integration." The Commission and their contractors integrated with municipal water departments, using their organized network to invade like parasites on local services. It all coincided with the 29th Amendment to the United States Constitution, later referred to as the Regional Trident Plan. Nova is a story about survival, power structures, the turning of relationships, and the networking between people and the systems to which they belong. It’s about A.I. blockchain possibility, and its potential for human betterment versus our detriment. It’s about the question of whether or not we need to be saved from ourselves, and by who or what? The Great Event at the end of the first chapter might just be what actually saves us. The epilogue will take place in 2517. This scene is fully sketched and the full arc of the novel is set. I expect to finish Nova Interitus by summer of 2023. This is realist hard-sci-fi dystopian fiction. I hope you find Nova to be a challenging and consuming story. This is not something I planned to write. It all came to me in a dream and I haven't been able to stop writing it. This Royal Road posting is basically a beta test with chapters and drafts to get some feedback and see if there's any readership for this narrative. For the full experience read Nova on Substack. I will be narrating a podcast version later this year there. https://novainteritus.substack.com/
