《System of Gods and Devils》Chapter 16: Past (Part 1)
Advertisement
Early morning Roger Dream got up and went to the backyard of the house and started his early morning training. He saw little Bo'er coming towards while jumping. Roger Dream was surprised to see little Bo waking up this early.
He came near him "Big Brother! Big Brother! Teach me to fight, please. I also want to fight so that I can protect my Mom and Sister." said Bo'er with puppy eyes.
Roger Dream laughed at his request, he then made a wooden sword from the firewood "Here! Take this. I'll teach you how to use this sword. OK!" said Roger Dream.
"Really! Yay! Big brother is the best." said little Bo'er excitedly.
"Wait, Don't be happy yet. Training is not an easy one. Your body will pain everywhere after a single exercise. You have to suffer too much pain. Are you ready to face it?" asked Roger Dream seriously
"Yes. For my family I am ready to face any pain." said little Bo resolutely.
"Good then. Follow the method I will teach you. OK." said Roger Dream.
"Yes, Big brother," said Bo'er.
He then taught his basic sword skills that he got from the store to little Bo. Then little Bo'er started to swing the sword in the same manner as Roger Dream.
Fengxin was watching them from the window, tears started to flow from her eyes as she was reminiscing the past. Lingxin came from behind "Are you thinking about your brother?" and she asked.
"Yes. Your father if he was still alive he should be teaching your little brother now. But I am happy now that little Bo'er has someone to teach him." said Fengxin with a smile.
Lingxin hugged her "Aunt. I'm sorry because of us you got castaway from the clan, and your cultivation also got sealed. You have been suffering because of us." said while crying.

"Stupid girl, what are you saying? Even though you're my brother's child, you're still my family. If I abandon my family when they are suffering then I am worse than a beast." said Fengxin while hugging her.
After a while, Lingxin said "Aunt, Do you think we should tell Bo'er the truth?"
"No. Why? He's still a child. I don't want him to suffer knowing that he has no parents. That's why I took the role as his mother." said Fengxin seriously.
"But now he started training. When he starts taking his first step towards cultivation he would find out about his relationship with you. He's still a mortal now, but when he attains Spirit attaining stage, he would easily sense that you're not his mother." Lingxin debated.
"But..." while cutting her midway Lingxin said "No buts, Reveal it to him. At least he has a new big brother to cry to. If he's gone, he would probably be sad alone."
Fengxin then looked at little Bo's joyous face while training with Roger Dream and nodded.
After finishing their training, Roger Dream took the medicinal bath as it was the most critical thing to form his Absolute Foundation. Unlike the first time, he got resistant to the pain without shouting.
Finishing his torturous bath, he came outside with a pale bluish body. Fengxin looking at him shocked because she knew what it means. She never thought a guy from Lower Realms can take Foundation Tempering Baths and came out with screaming in pain or being unconscious. Moreover, where did he get those Herbs they don't even grow in the Lower Realms? She now knew that this guy's roots don't belong to the Lower Realms.
Roger Dream looking at her expression he knew that she knows about the Tempering bath. But both of them didn't say anything. Little Bo'er came from behind "Big Brother, why did you take so much time to bath?" after looking at his body he shouted "Big Brother, Why are you blue? Are you OK?" hearing his shouts Lingxin also came out.

He then said, "Little Bo'er it’s just a medicinal bath good for your big brother's training."
"Then what about me?" asked little Bo'er
Fengxin looking at little Bo'er said "Bo'er. Don't disturb your big brother. The medicinal bath is only for adults. That's why he didn't give it to you." she then took him for breakfast.
Roger Dream smiled and followed them inside.
After a while, Fengxin and Lingxin called little Bo'er and said "Bo'er. We want to talk to you about something. Come here."
"What Mom?" asked Bo.
"Bo'er listen carefully at what I say. OK. And Please be strong when you hear this." she said while feeling sad.
"Yes, Little brother. Just remember that I'm with you. OK." said Lingxin.
"Mom. Sis. You're confusing me" said little Bo'er while scratching his head.
They then both slowly explained to him.
After hearing their explanation, Bo'er was shocked, and then he cried "So you're not my Mother. And my Father and Mother already died. Why didn't you tell me earlier?" said little Bo'er while crying.
Little Bo'er was heartbroken. Who doesn't at this situation, he's just an innocent boy.
He then looked at Fengxin and said "Can...Can I still call you Mother?" asked Bo'er.
"Yes. Yes. Why are you even asking that? Even though I am not your blood-related Mother, I will still be your Mom forever." she said and hugged him tightly.
Both of them cried. Lingxin also had tears in her eyes of happiness.
Roger Dream looking at scene felt his heart warm and was eager to re-join his family.
Roger Dream then was sitting beside the lake and enjoying the scenery. Fengxin came from his behind "Little Brother, I need to talk to you something."
Roger Dream looked at her and said first "I know what you're going to talk about."
"You're not from this Realm aren't you?" asked Roger Dream.
Fengxin was shocked "You, How?" and she asked.
"First of all. I know that you're still a virgin because I am little sensitive to energies and I can sense your yin" said Roger Dream.
Hearing his explanation, she blushed.
"I'm Sorry. I've been rude," said Roger Dream flustered.
"No, it’s okay," she said in a quiet voice.
"But how did you know that I'm not from this Realm?" she asked.
"Not only that. I also know that you're from the White Feathers Clan," he said.
She was totally shocked. Her being castaway has been a secret. And even in her clan, no one knows her face other than her Grandfather and her close family because she always wore a veil and now someone said that he knows about her. How can she not be shocked? She even started to stay vigilant around him thinking that he might be from the enemy clan.

The Lord of the Opera house (DISCONTINUED)
The Zürtzün Empire. Once a mighty nation, it was plunged into war, completely devastating it. The people of Zürtzün felt deep bitterness towards their former enemies and intense anger towards their King, who they felt had betrayed them by dragging them into a war they didn't want to be a part of. The drastically falling popularity of the King marked the beginning of a war fought within the Imperial capital of Zürtzün, a war of deception and political intrigue with many different parties vying for power in the face of the King's decline. But one party proved to be more ruthless than the rest. The Adlerschrank emerged a powerful party and wiped off almost all their opponents right off the map. They seized control of the Imperial capital and the rest of Zürtzün, placing their leader, the Herrscher, at the top position of power. He was charismatic and passionate and the people of the Empire came to adore him more than they ever did their King. With his dangerous fanaticism, he won them over. He promised them wealth. He promised them power. He promised them vengeance. He promised them a war, one where the Empire would reestablish itself and crush its enemies. With the eastern lowlands under their iron grip and the ever-growing wariness from their snow-laden neighbour, Myromnmiat, the Empire and its cohorts are left at a crossroads. Is it finally to reclaim the Empire's lost glory? Or will war make the mighty Zürtzün draw it's last breath? But deep in the heart of the nation, a poison is brewing. The Opera house, the enforcers of the Herrscher's rule and the exterminators of the Empire's "pests", has been neglected and left to rot. Or so it goes, in the eyes of a seemingly insignificant, but hardworking desk writer. He plans to escape the clutches of the Opera house but inadvertently plunges himself headfirst into the house's affairs...
