Chapter 7: Meeting Berserker
In the blink of an eye, Shaon and Maho had reached the “school”. To call it a fortress was probably more accurate. The walls were about 50 meters high and Shaon couldn't even see the end of them. The school occupied an extremely big area inside the city.
What Shaon did not know was that the school stood here before the city and the headmaster of the school was the City Lord. Soradeen was also the capital of Soradeen Fief so basically it controlled the whole Fiefdom. The Fang clan was only a lowly Prefecture Lord who the Master of Soradeen could replace with but a single word. As they stood before the gigantic gates, Shaon gulped.
Maho however had an evil grin on her face as she took a deep breath. Seeing this Shaon felt an even bigger chill run down his spine. However he could only watch helplessly as Maho yelled at the front gates, “Berserker, you damn old idiot, get your ass out here right now!” When Shaon, and Remy, heard this, one was stupefied while the other was laughing like he was on laughing gas.
To Remy, this was hilarious but to Shaon, this was an absolute nightmare. He couldn't even make heads or tails of the situation anymore. After 3 seconds passed another yell came but this time, it was from the inside. “You lazy little lizard, you get your ass over here. You came to visit me not the other way around.” With the shout, the gigantic gates started opening.
The people who were posted on guard inside naturally heard the screaming so they were puzzled by the turn of events. One of the more arrogant ones however walked over to them and yelled, “You lowly commoners have no place here. You came shouting at our doorstep so consider yourselves lucky to get out of here alive.”
The person wore black robes and looked to be around 20. He had refined features and looked like a ladies man. He had shoulder length brown haired and green eyes. However before Maho could even say anything to him another shout echoed out, “Song Dua, you get your ass out of their way or I will personally nail it to the school gates!”

When the youth heard the shout this time, he had fear in his eyes. H immediately stepped aside and let them pass. By this time, the two elders had caught up with Veri. They looked at the situation and could only sigh to themselves, as this was quite usual. Seeing Veri arrive, Shaon went and sat on his shoulder. The Yeti was strong enough to carry 4 Shaons' while sprinting at full speed for 6 hours, he didn't even notice the weight when he was just strolling around. Shaon and Veri followed Maho as she led the way.
When they went along the way, they gathered quite a lot of peculiar gazes and many people made the connection between them and the loud shouting. Shaon used this opportunity to ask Maho, “Hey, were you not supposed to be a student here? Why do everyone look at you with such puzzled gazes?”
Maho looked at Shaon and said, “Ahh that, I lied. I have no connection to this school other than the idiot in charge of this place.” Hearing this, Shaon was dumbstruck, he now understood why Remy was laughing so much. From the way the Maho and Berserker talked, it seemed like they weren't on the best of terms.
As they slowly made their way to the middle of the school, they entered a secret passage and soon arrived at a pair of fiery red gates. Shaon looked at the gates in awe but Maho just nonchalantly pushed them open. She barged in and said, “You old idiot, we are here. No where is your lazy ass?”
Shaon was as quiet as a mouse, since the people currently talking were in a league way out of his. When Shaon entered the gates, he saw a serene garden with a little hut in the middle. There was also a bond there with fish quietly swimming around. Shaon took a while to admire the beauty but he was snapped out of it when the little huts door opened. An old, frail looking man walked out.

His head was bald and his skin was very wrinkled. He was wearing a fiery red robe and he looked to be annoyed. “You old hag, how long are you going to call me an old ghost? You are only 20 billion years younger than me but you are still older than the dynasty that rules this damn kingdom.” The old man scoffed in annoyed tone.
However as the words fell, Shaon felt a really oppressive aura pushing down on him. Seeing this Remy immediately took control over Shaon's body and yelled at the two, “You two puppies fight from your own time and the next time you try to kill Shaon with your aura, I swear, I will kill you.” As Remy said that, he released his aura.
When Berserker felt that familiar aura his face was painted in shock as he muttered, “Boss you. But I saw. How are you still alive?” Maho calmed down as well when she felt the aura and Remy could release his. He gave control over the body back to Shaon and started the telephone game again.
“Well, a fraction of my persona survived it and slept in the depths of the soul. I watched over this guy as he got reincarnated and have passed on to him my cultivation art. Now as for the reason we are here: I want you to take him as a disciple of the school but let him do what ever he wants. After all, he is also my successor as the Heavenly Dragon leader.” When Shaon reached toward the end, he felt kind of embarrassed.
To be made the leader of one of the major powerhouses in the Dimension at the peak of fourth level of Grandmaster stage, was awkward. However, the old man looked at him with interest as he asked to see the medallion. When Shaon showed him the medallion, he gave an approving nod, “Yes, it truly is the Leaders Medallion. I will follow you and of course permit you to stay at the school. You can be a Conclave Disciple, so that should take care of everything. Back to Boss, how long do you have left?”
Of course Berserker wasn't stupid and knew that Remy had limited time left. Even Shaon was surprised when he transmitted the next sentence, “Around 2 months at best.” Now Shaon also understood the deadline that Remy had set. It wasn't on whim but it was set on how long he had left. “Of course it couldn't be as easy as he made it out to be.” He thought to himself bitterly but seeing this, Maho decided to change the subject on to Shaon's resources and standing.
Berserker just rang a little bell and an elderly man stepped forward. Berserker gave him some guidelines and told him that Shaon was going to be a Conclave Disciple. When the elderly man received his instructions, he immediately went to carry them out. Shaon, Maho and Berserker chatted for a while mostly about summoning the other Heavenly Dragon members and introducing Shaon to them.
Shaon however was still doubtful about them accepting it just like that but from current practice, he saw that most didn't care that he had a low cultivation base. An hour ticked by and the elderly man from before returned. He whispered something to Berserker and left. Berserker however only smiled and said, “Well, everything has been prepared so lets go and check out your new home.”
With that they stood up from the table they were sitting at and followed Berserker.

8 549Dream of the Abyss
Elisa Mary Grant died in a hospital bed after being stuck in it for six months, and like any other, her soul drifted away from her husk when she passed. For her, death was a release. It merely meant that she no longer have to wake up in pain, breathing through tubes and have doctors flood her veins with dubious chemicals for “experimental treatment”. Free from her mortal constraints and useless body, she felt… at peace, serene, even. Death is bliss, after all, when objectively living sucked to the point of extreme. Therefore, there was no reason to mourn at all and she knew she definitely didn't. ... That was until, on her way for a proper reincarnation, she found herself rudely interrupted and left stranded in the great NoWhere. “Wonderful,” she remarked as she floated in the [Beyond], “Just when I thought that suicide is the answer.” Author's note: Updates every Tuesday-Wednesday, probably some time in between. ... P.S Notes: Contains existential questions and nihilistic themes, rather philosophical. Will be rather sluggish until the MC gets her shit together. P.SS Notes: Story takes time to develop. And maybe uncomfortable. It's not gonna be action-packed or filled with battles, I think. Anyway, it is kinda unusual. P. SSS Notes: It is not LitRpg. Don't be fooled.
