Chapter 90 - A Glimpse of Ninas Past (2/2)
” I am sure you probably heard of them, the Eye. They are the people that have been hunting the member of the Henry family for centuries. Because of them, we had to change our names and scattered throughout the continent. However, lately, aside from them the imperial families and some powerful nobles families in the Egul Continent were hunting us as well for the sole purpose of translating that book left behind by our ancestor fro them.”
” They believed that our ancestor was not from this continent and probably not even from this world. Aside from that, they also believed that he had left all of his treasures somewhere within the continent, and the book in the weird writing he left behind was the map or the instructions of how one might find that treasure.”
” The funny thing is, even though Henry was our ancestor. There hasn't been a single person in our family that was able to understand his weird writing untill my sister came along.”
” By that time, the book he had left behind was already stolen long ago except for the one with the words and their definitions. Unfortunately, that book was stolen as well not too long ago.”
There was nothing but hatred in her eyes when she was saying those things, especially when she mentioned the Eye, Her eyes were filled with killing intents. Well, cant't Balme her, the Eye has been pursuing and hunting her family for centuries and forced them into hiding.
' Of course, your family would be targeted by the imperial families and nobles families in the continent. Your ancestor was someone both feared and sought by any power within the continent. Not only that, but his method was also heaven-defying as well. Any sane person in the continent would drool over the treasures someone such as him left behind.' Though Shad.
In the meantime, looking at the cold and arrogant Nina, Shad felt a sense of familiarity an closeness. Not because they were master and servant but because she had the bloodline of someone that came from Earth running through her veins.
The Earth that Shad had known was probably long gone and destroyed by now with nothing remained. Shad was looking for the treasures and the things left behind by Henry not only to strengthen himself or his family's Empire but also to find something that could bring him closer to his true origin, something to remember Earth by.
Even though he was not living a good life over there in his previous life, that didn't mean that he hated that place and did not wish to come back after some time or when he was strong enough. Now that it was gone, There was no place for him to come back and the World of Eidrin became his only homeland.
” Don't worry, I will help you find your sister and if those people that had started that rumor were the one that kidnaped your sister, I have a pretty good idea where we might find them,” Shad said with a slight smile on his face.
” What do you mean.” Asked Nina with a surprised look on her face.
” It means, I know where the so-called treasure is. Follow me.” Without giving Nina any chances to ask any questions or anything, Shad dashed deeper within the forest.
When he had read the first volume of the diary left by Henry, Shad remembered how Henry was describing the place he had crashed. Even though he did not give any explicit information that could lead him to the exact location because the whole place was a forest with mountains and trees everywhere, to make matter worst, that event happened over two centuries ago. Nonetheless, he did mention that he used to go take a bath in a huge lake behind a certain mountain peak. After looking at the map of the Black Mist forest, Shad found about the location of that lake. If he can get to that lake, By using his strong spiritual force which was able to cover a distance of more than 500 meters radius, he won't be long before he finds that pod.
