Chapter 318 - JANUS PAST (1/2)
”MEOW”
[Oh,.. don't get me even started... would you believe me if I tell you that I also became a victim of that scam??!!]
A hint of savagery and annoyance reflected in Janus' eyes when he was reminded of his past experience.
”HUh? What do you mean by that??! Can you explain to me what you are trying to say? I don't get it”
So with that question, Janus started to recount his past life. To which Mu Lingxi listened attentively. Especially because she could see how serious Janus was.
”MEOW”
[It was during the time when this world was still young and the gods, as well as the other form of living beings, used to coexist with one another.]
”Woah? How where you able to get there??? Did you time travel and teleported there???”
Mu Lingxi asked in amazement when she heard Janus' introduction
”MEOW”
[No. I originally came from that era.]
”Ohh.. so you must be really old then, Janus.”
Mu Lingxi added as she placed her hand below her chin while she nodded her head. Then she sported a contemplating look on her face.
Janus decided not to mind his master in the meantime and went on telling the story of his life.
”MEOW”
[During my time, the talking oak trees from the Epiro Grove were highly regarded due to their ability to prophesize.]
”Ohh!!!!! Really?! Are they like the talking oak tree that we met at the heart of Enchanted Forest?”
Mu Lingxi once again asked in curiosity
”MEOW”
[Yes he was just like them. In fact, I believe that he was also one of them.]
[Though I'm not sure how he was able to survive up until now and landed here in Magus Academia and ended up becoming a school guardian.]
Janus nodded his head as he tried to answer his master's question as calm as he could. But then a second after, he snapped back at her.
”MEOW”
[Hold on for a moment! Can you please stop interrupting me?! How am I suppose to finish my story if you will keep doing that?!]
”Oops! My bad, sorry. Go on, I won't interrupt you anymore.”
Mu Lingxi said with an apologetic tone. But her half-suppressed laugh gave herself away.
To be honest, Mu Lingxi was deliberately trying to interrupt Janus whenever he was about to speak.
She purposely did that to get to his nerves. In fact, she was even surprised when Janus did not realize it anytime sooner.
Janus exhaled a mouthful of air in an exaggerated manner before he continued on his tale.
”MEOW”
[So as I was saying, those oak trees were capable of predicting the future...]
