Chereads / Heavenly Equinox / Chapter 12 - Immortal Treasury

Chapter 12 - Immortal Treasury

I had watched the Academy as they started their daily routines of introducing themselves to their seniors and also studying in their class; while it was a futuristic world, their classrooms seemed more like it was a magic academy, with seats like a theater, except they had long wooden desks with them being separated by two sets of stairs to go to their desks. I also found out the name of the person I was interested in."You are A Japanese in a predominantly Chinese School, it seems. You interest me very much, Tori Omikami."He is clearly a descendant of Altair but sadly hadn't chosen to cultivate since he's at the beginning of Qi Condensation. Usually, I'd be bummed, but he was probably enjoying himself during that time; as I thought I had a gut feeling to leave the room so fighting doesn't occur, I used 『Spatial Movement』to change my location to the roof of the Academy building where I then heard Astral say 『Eve』meaning she had been teleported to me. Before she could react, I had disabled my 『Invisibility』"Ow! Hi mom, how are you, and where are we now?""Just be a little quiet about it since we're in an Academy, but I'm watching one of my friend's descendants to ensure they don't get hurt."She looked at me, somewhat confused, as I chuckled, now having to explain in simple terms."Friends Children, I Protect."She looked at me with a smile, so it seemed she understood this and liked that I was protecting someone. And then suddenly, multiple people appeared; it was two teachers as they looked at me and Astral, who they thought was a monster and were about to attack."Woah Woah, Calm down, she's my daughter. Don't attack her.""Oh, and who are you to boss me around? I don't think I've seen you in this School before.""So you're saying you Skipped the entrance ceremony? Doesn't that seem rude and shine a bad light on the School?""So what? You aren't some person of high cultivation or anything, are you? I can't even sense you and your aura; you don't even have Qi inside you.""Doesn't that just prove you're an idiot? If you can't sense someone's Qi and Cultivation Realm, maybe it's because, Oh, I don't know, THEY HAVE MANA? And are in a higher realm than you?"I was pissed that this guy was stupid enough to think if he couldn't sense the cultivation realm, I was weak. I wasn't the realm I was posing to be, but by all means, I am not weak. Or so I think, but with magic, I could beat many people, even those in a higher realm. Suddenly, I got another sensation; it was weird; it reminded me of the past once again; I had to leave, but I didn't want to leave Astral behind with these people. Who knows what they'll do."Astral, come on, I need to go somewhere to get something of mine."I ran towards Mother, smiling at her as she lifted me up and disappeared. It was weird how she could quickly disappear and reappear in different locations like this, but I didn't care because she took good care of me, even having safety measures so I didn't get hurt."Alright, we're here, but First, make sure you don't get close to it, or else you'll get hurt.""Alright, Mama!"I left astral a little bit away from the weapon; by the looks of it, we were in the middle of some fields, but I noticed some people had begun flying in my direction. I looked at the weapon and smiled.『Shem HaMephorash』A weapon I have fond memories of using a long time ago when the Garden was still reachable to all beings, but now it has been limited to only me and that person named 『Light』But those memories were not too reminisce on right now, it seems 『Light』gave me this weapon to use it when I'm in this world I looked at my system and saw a notification from him.Before anyone reached where I was, I grabbed the Scythe and looked at it; with a single Swing cutting the wheat, the sky had split. Literally, it had cut the molecules, which turned the sky blue into the pitch black sky known as 『Space』I looked at Astral and used 『Spatial Movement』to teleport her to the pocket dimension I created before, which was connected to the past but also led to the future, I also told astral using 『Telepathy』to not leave the room until I took her out of it.Once I finished, two people landed in front of me, and they looked with serious but calm faces."Hello, Young Lady. I see you got the Scythe here. Please hand it over as it's something dangerous. I think you've seen how dangerous it was since the swing of the Scythe caused the sky to split in half."He was polite but somewhat rude in asking for the Scythe, but I had no intention of giving him; I spun it around, cutting the wheat. I had then spoken to the man in a more monotone voice."You are not allowed to wield this weapon; after all, it is called the Scythe of Extinction for a Reason. But I will be putting this into my Treasury.""Treasury? You must be someone of High Status then; you should know to hand over these weapons to us, considering we are here for the safety of the people."The other man beside him said nothing and simply had his hands behind his back. I looked at him with an expressionless face."I already said no, this is my weapon, which I made. I have the right to own and use it if I make it. After all, you are only humans; after all, touching the Flesh of the First Creature in Existence would be undermining your Ancestors."He looked at me, surprised, I had made this weapon? Of course, the second part confused him, but the other man, who I assumed was his Secretary or Bodyguard, explained it meant it was the Flesh of the First Human."I apologize for trying to defile something so precious, but if I may, could you tell me why you were allowed to touch it and turn it into a weapon?""It's because it's my Flesh; why else would I touch it? If I knew its worth, I would make it float so I can't touch it."As I said this, he looked at me surprised, while his Secretary or Bodyguard, I still don't know, also seemed somewhat astonished as his eyes widened a little. As they looked like that, I used 『Spatial Movement』 to teleport to Tiangong Academy; for now, I'll let Astral stay in that so-called Pocket Dimension. Looking around, I was on the track, which allowed me to stretch my body. When I did, it sounded like an explosion in the number of pops I created. I finished stretching and made it so my body didn't do that too much. As I started to walk, I noticed that, in the distance, many of Qi's bodies were getting closer, so it seemed they were there for physical training. I went back to the middle of the field and instead began floating in the air using 『Wind Manipulation』with the use of magic; I had gotten used to using this to the point it was practically memorized, but I could do more than that.As the students arrived, I stared at them with a bored expression. They seemed confused about why I was floating, but one of the teachers intercepted; she was tall and muscular, at least for an average woman from my standard. She was also wearing what we called Gym clothing, like the generic one you see there, but I can see why some wear it; it is summer now."Welcome. This is your final class of today, and as you can see, our esteemed guest is watching us right now to see how you do in physical activities, so remember to try your hardest!"I looked at Tori with a smile, but it seemed like I was looking at everyone; I clearly knew what he was thinking. He did not want to be associated with me; I would be more of a hindrance, would I not?As they began, Tori acted like he was the slowest and weakest of them, but I had to tell him directly to get him to stop doing this and give it his all."You really think you can trick me into thinking you're weak, Tori?"He froze as he looked at me, surprised and shocked at how I knew such a thing. I don't want to invade his privacy and read his mind like that.["Shit, Shit, Shit, how the fuck does she know I'm faking it? I thought I was doing well enough trying to pretend it; she definitely isn't some dumb girl who's at Void Transcendence; she's probably higher than that, no maybe she's even higher than the highest realm for mortals, but I thought they'd directly be taken into a higher realm and be forced there."]I was chuckling as he was sweating bullets; it looked like he would create a water puddle from sweating so much; it made me a little happy. But the teacher had instructed them to continue as Tori had finally started to give his All, which had made him Excel in the other half of the exercises the students had gotten; once the class finished, I flew over to him and began patting his head."Don't be sad I found out; it wasn't even that hard considering you're a kid, Both Body and Heart."He looked more surprised but was smart enough to hide it so as not to arouse suspicion. I chuckled more and then used 『Law of Creation』to create a weapon that best suited his fighting style. In turn, it created a spear made of an unknown material, probably the material from which I make my weapons. After all, it can replicate practically anything, even those stones that control your soul, space, or even time."What is this for?""First, you need to call me Master or Ma'am; after all, did I not directly say I wanted to take you as my disciple in the entrance ceremony?"He sighed as he had to reluctantly agree."May I know what this is for... Master?"I chuckled at his annoyance but finally gave him the answer he wanted."It's a weapon that best suits your fighting style after I have watched you spar with others in the class."["What!? She could already see what weapon I used for battle from a simple fighting style I used against children? Also, how the fuck does she know I'm not from this world? It's as if she knows everything about me."]"Anyway, shall we get going? I really wish to meet your parents. After all, you go home on the first day to stay with your parents and say goodbye to them.""Sure, let's go ahead, I really wanna meet my parents since it's been a while."Both of us had left as I used 『Spatial Movement』once again to teleport outside of the Academy as I followed Tori to his home, where he had to climb up a mountain; seeing as it was a good exercise, I let him do so while I had flown up almost to the top, using 『Time Stop』I had stopped time around my body so it made it seem I had practically no aura around me because it couldn't escape. Still, obviously, this was only directed to my aura and nothing else, so no one would get just stuck in time if they tried to high-five me or if I tried patting someone's head. I waited for about 15 minutes, and Tori finally reached the top while I followed suit behind him, and then I saw him again; it was Altair. He was sitting there seemingly cultivating, trying to get to a higher realm; with Mana detection, I figured out he was at Void Transcendence just like I had posed. He turned towards his son Tori and spoke."How was School? Did you make any new friends? Remember to respect your elders who respect you back, too!""It looks like you've been parenting well, but he doesn't seem so engaged in cultivating since he tried acting weak in front of me."Altair looked over at me, surprised. His eyes began tearing up. He seemed young, probably in his early 20s.
