The events swiftly unfolded before his eyes. Riku's mind fell into deep thoughts. Though there was only a faint logical reason about why would Fang Lin label him as a spy. Riku also found it quite reasonable as a clan elder to worry about the future of his family if their family was labeled as a spy helper.

Though he still doesn't know about the laws in this world. Riku could understand Fang Lin's emotions.

With a long lasting sigh. Riku cleared his mind as he seated cross-legged before the faces of the two dumbfounded people. With fluid movements of his two hands. Riku formed a pointing position with his index finger and middle finger utilizing the two of his hands.

His right hand was pointed on his dantian while his left hand was pointed on the gap between the eyebrows. With a low growl. The entirety of Riku's Mana Force exploded as a pale blue mist emerged and enshrouded his body.

"Junior!! So you're really a spy!" Fang Lin's alertness surged to the roof as he retreated backwards and exploded his Mana Force with much more intensity than what Riku utilized. Violet mist materialized as it roiled towards the pale blue mist. Intent on suppressing its covering.

But Fang Lin noticed something peculiar as he frowned his eyebrows and intently looked at Riku's figure. The pale blue mist that he summoned acted passive that it didn't even fought back against his conjured violet mist. It just orbited around Riku's body, filled with tranquility.

"What's happening to Junior Riku?" Fang Xue gasped as she clutched her uncles in pain. Since she was previously seating in a cross-legged position. The sudden explosion of Mana Force jolted her back for several meters and she landed awkwardly on the ground. Slightly twisting her ankles.

Fang Lin didn't reply as confusion arose inside his eyes. Since the pale blue light around Riku didn't even flinch with his attacks. That doesn't mean that it cannot kill. It maybe just awaiting Riku's command to strike. And so, Fang Lin didn't let his guard down as he readied a battle stance. A violet crescent moon shone on his forehead.

With a low growl, Riku forcefully sucked all the released pale blue lights towards his forehead. An invisible suction force appeared in mid-air as the visible pale blue mist became a whirlpool that was endlessly chomped by his forehead.

~~Chii Chii...

A small sound resounded as a small drop of blood congealed from the whole on Riku's forehead. This scarlet red blood emanated a feeling of superiority toward everyone who was looking at it. Even Fang Lin couldn't help but gulp in response.

"Th-th-this is?!! "

"Blood Essence!" Fang Lin clutched Fang Xue's figure around his arms as he retreated to the furthermost corner of the room. Due to the thickness of the walls around the three. No one on the outside would be able to hear anything from the inside. And because of the restrictive inscription charms placed all over the place. It was impossible for any Mana Force to leak to the outside world.

Fang Lin planned to use this room beforehand if he had ascertained that Riku was definitely a spy, and he would've slain Riku without any traces.

But he didn't foresee this outcome coming. Since Fang Lin had ordered beforehand that they mustn't be disturbed. Fang Lin could only circulate his violet mist around him and his granddaughter to protect them from Riku's upcoming intense attack.

But after about ten breaths. The events that Fang Lin deduced to unfold didn't happen. What instead unfolded before their eyes was Riku. Outstretching his right index finger as he formed a small scarlet chain using the blood essence that he had drawn forth.

Fang Lin's mind reeled in as he remembered a piece of this happenings completely related to the books that he had previously read in this old life of his.

"This is... An unbreakable pact?!" Fang Lin gasped as his throat constricted. Never did he thought that Riku was this resolute to prove his innocence that he even drew his blood essence to create an unbreakable pact.

One must know that every person currently living in this world only has three blood essences. Each was drawn from a person's heart veins. If a blood essence was lost. The body would feel extremely weak. And a person could only draw a maximum of two blood essences. Each lost of blood essence would weaken their latent talent.

But not only creating an unbreakable pact was the only use of a blood essence. One could use it to overdraft their ability and stimulate their latent talent. Making them breakthrough a supposed to be impossible breakthrough. But if one even used that method. It would be impossible for them to create another breakthrough to the next realm since their foundation was shallow.

One could also explode their blood essence, killing themselves and the enemies around them. Which means, a suicidal attack.

~Chiii, Chiii...

The chains around Riku faintly formed a sentence. A sentence which sent tremor unto Fang Lin and Fang Xue's body.

I, with my name. Riku Lightshield, hereby creates a blood unbreakable pact.

That, I am not a spy in affiliation with the surrounding empires.

And that my intent is pure, unblemished.

With my blood as a witness. I hereby create.

Unbreakable Pact!

The congealed scarlet red chain shot off as a towards Riku's left chest. Firmly binding his heart. If he were to break the rules of the pact that he had created. Riku would immediately die. Riku created this pact solely because in this new peculiar world. He was alone.

He awoke with no other connections to this world other than the two grandfather and granddaughter duo. If they were to declare him as a spy and wage fight with him. Riku would have to bear the consequences. He still didn't knew too much about this world. He still needed to acquire enough information before he can venture alone in this new world.

The events unfolded before the two happened extremely fast that Fang Lin didn't even have time to consume it all within his mind. But nevertheless, Fang Lin calmed his mind as he waved his wrist. Sending a violet light to shot off towards Riku.

With weakened movements, Riku slowly opened his palm that clutched the object that Fang Lin threw. Shockingly, a medicinal pill was there!

But because he had forcefully done the unbreakable pact with the cost of his blood essence from his heart veins. Riku was undoubtedly extremely weakened. Because of that, the imminent dizziness immediately came over his head that he didn't even had enough time to consume and refine the pill before falling unconscious.

As his worn out mind started to slip off the abyss of sleeping. Riku could only hear the faint sounds of Fang Lin and Fang Xue's cries as the last words drowned in Riku's mind as he fell into deep sleep.

....

Riku Lightshield's consciousness gradually awakened.

Riku murmured as he rubbed his weary eyes. As he glanced around the area. Riku found himself inside the familiar confines of the white room of which he now treated as his home sweet home.

With slow movements, Riku lazily stretched his upper body as he revealed a faint smile. Though he consumed a blood essence to prove his innocence. It was still extremely effective. Riku had no regrets regarding his consumption of blood essence.

~Ding...

A small sound resounded as Riku glanced over the Radiant Weapon on his left ring finger. The small orb embedded on it shone with a violet light. With a small smile, Riku hovered his palm over his Radiant Weapon as a small message emerged.

New Message!Fang Lin[085562]:Junior Riku, Xue'er is coming to fetch you. It's time for your first day of school!

Riku slightly chuckled as he glanced over the message. His innocence really was proven.

And so, without further ado. Riku once again activated the mechanisms inside his room and once again slammed himself on the waters of his hot spring like bathtub.

~Ding!

A small sound once again emerged. Riku once again hovered his palm over his Radiant Weapon. Riku's eyes lit up when he saw the message and he couldn't even contain his excitement.

A new gift has arrived!Morrow Academy Uniform[S]Morrow Academy Identification CardTwo Radiant Cells [Source Code]Rank 2 Spell: Illumination [Source Code]Sender: Fang Lin[085562] Receiver: Riku Lightshield[500424]

But before he could voice command his Radiant Weapon to close the message, another notification arrived.

New message!Fang Lin[085562]:Oh, I forgot to say, Insert this command on the terminal. netsch interface inventory /open

Riku's eyes lit up as his heart became filled with gratefulness. But before he could try out the command, Riku decided to do it later since he was still inside the bathtub.

After about thirty minutes of immersing himself inside the emerald green waters of the hot spring like bathtub. Riku slowly stood up from the waters as he wiped himself dry with a wool towel that came from his cosmos ring.

"He he, It's time to check this out." Riku slightly murmured as he commanded his Radiant Weapon. "Administrator Commands, open user terminal!"

This time, Riku used a voice command since he was still rubbing himself dry with his wool towel as a transparent screen flickered before his eyes.

Welcome, Riku Lightshield!Mana Force Realm; Flesh Improving Stage;Middle PhaseIntegrate Source CodeSpells Accumulated: 4Open IDERanger Rank 1Exit User TerminalMana Force Stats: 1200

With a slight tap on the Open IDE button, Riku was again welcomed by a new transparent screen and typed.

netsch interface inventory /open

A list of items appeared before Riku's eyesight.

Inventory List: Riku LightshieldMorrow Academy Uniform[S]Morrow Academy Identification CardRadiant Cells [2]Rank 2: Illumination Spell [Source Chip]

With brightened eyes, Riku slightly tapped over the Morrow Academy Uniform button as a complete set of uniform emerged.

The upper body of the uniform had a peculiar design as it was a long sleeved checkered shirt. The colors from the wrist up above his elbow was scarlet red. While the color of the sleeve from his elbow to his arm was light green. On his chest towards his waist. It was colored white. There were three buttons separated by large space.

The lower body on the other hand was quite plain. It looked in semblance with a black slacks.

The upper body of his uniform, on the place hovering before his heart had a small hexagon emblem. Inside the hexagon was a book adorned with tactfully designed vines revolving around it. Over the small book was a multi colored rainbow. And below the hexagon emblem was the name of the institute encased in a block of black lines.

Riku swiftly wore his attire and finished without any problems. Although he was quite unfamiliar about the people's sense of fashion in this world. He wasn't that clueless when it comes to clothing.

Next up. Riku once again opened his inventory and revealed his identification card.

"Pfft!" Riku almost spat out his saliva as he looked at his visage placed on the identification card. Judging from the dark circles around Riku's eyes and his pale white skin. It seemed like he was jolted awake and was suddenly taken a picture without his consent.

But he still felt amazed thinking that his image was placed in such high quality inside a small identification card. But Riku immediately disposed of the idea as he thought. 'Those guys can even see past events with those floating transparent screens. So how could making something like this be a hard feat?'

[AN: Riku was referring about his first fight with Han Qiang! Chapter 4: Author's note]

Riku bowed down as he swiftly wore his socks. At first, Riku was confused about the way of wearing this small gloves for the feet. But judging from the hole. Riku immediately deduced the way of wearing it and revealed a small accomplished smile.

~Chiii, Chiii...

A familiar sound of something opening emerged and as he expected. A figure of a familiar young woman emerged. Currently, Fang Xue revealed a small smile as she entered the room with faint and fluid movements. She was also wearing the same uniform as Riku. The only difference was she was wearing a skirt ensemble with a scarlet red color in it.

Her lips had a trace of red in it. Clearly, she wore a lip gloss to add a subtle color on her lips.

Fang Xue faintly chortled as she glanced over Riku's smiling figure. "To think that I called you a junior before yet you're at the same age as me... "

"Hmm, you look quite manly with that." Fang Xue continued.

"You too Miss Fang, you look gorgeous." Riku teasingly smirked as he darted his gaze over his removed clothing. He cleaved his hand towards them as they were sucked inside Riku's cosmos ring.

As Riku darted his gaze. Fang Xue's cheeks flashed with a faint trace of red as she whispered. "Only that?"

But even though it was a small whisper. Riku could clearly hear it within the confines of this silent white room as he moved his attention towards Fang Xue. "Hmm?"

Slightly startled, Fang Xue replied. "Nothing!"

Riku could only frown his eyebrows after hearing Fang Xue's reply. And as usual. The two traversed through the cafeterias. But the strange thing was, there were no other students in sight. Riku couldn't help but question this peculiarity towards Fang Xue.

But the only reply he got was a small "You'll know about it when the time arrives."

So, Riku could only seat himself before the table as he wolfed over his food. Not minding his current appearance while eating.

The two swiftly ate over their food as they left the cafeteria and walked towards the exit doors.

On the outside, a world of green welcomed Riku as a blast of fresh air came over his face. Fang Xue also welcomed the blast of fresh air as she inhaled the air around her.

After about three deep breaths. Fang Xue finally broke the silence with a chuckle as she said. "The first one who arrives at the first year's school grounds will win!" Fang Xue shouted as she pointed towards the furthermost building. Judging from the stretch of the grasses around him. Riku deduced that, that building must be at least five kilometers away from his current location.

Without further ado, Fang Xue kicked up a huge amount of dust as she ran with her fastest speed towards the building of whom she pointed. Riku who was still deducing the distance of the building from his current location was caught unguarded and the dust fell in his eyes as he shouted. "That's cheating!" But what he could only hear as a reply was Fang Xue's gleeful chuckle.

Riku also kicked up a huge amount of dust as he propelled himself towards Fang Xue's location. But strangely, Fang Xue would leave afterimages in an interval of three breaths. Leaving Riku unable to determine Fang Xue's distance from him.

As the building became bigger in his eyesight. Fang Xue finally stopped before the steel fences as she shouted with glee. "He he, this is the building for first years! Welcome to our first day of school!" Fang Xue opened her arms as if receiving a huge hug.
