26 Faith-Beings 1 (1/2)
To this point of the story, Sam stooped watching.He was satisfied.
And for the later story that has happened, he could make some guess.
'Detailed Rewind' sure gave Sam a pleasant surprise. He really didn't think, this Detailed-Rewind would be this powerful.
It even traced back Molly's and Rose's long gone past, which even they themselves didn't know off. Just experiencing this skill made him persive how good this skill was. And Sam found difficulty in praising this skill with just a few words.
About the other ability, Boost, which he activated along with the Detailed-Rewind, made him save much time. Just seeing Molly and Rose to be in the same pose as before, he understood what the word 'amaze' really means.
This was just one aspect to use this ability. If given time, Sam could think of many more ways to utilise this ability.
The thing that surprised Sam most was, Molly's and Rose's life.
Before watching their story, Sam always thought his life story was a complex one. However now.... after experiencing his maids'life-story, it made him feel his story wasn't the complex one as he thought it to be.
Not only were his maids' princesses... but interestingly they were also his parents' direct-disciples. And except few, no one seems to know about this.
Everybody only knows them as Ben's honorary disciples.
When Sam saw molly's and Rose's stats-info which just looked like Photocopies, some doubts aroused in his mind. And now that he completed watching their life-story, he confirmed his suspicions
Sam: Dizzy, they are faith-sisters... aren't they?
Dizzy mind-voiced: yes, Host.
Sam smilingly thought: since they are faith sisters...they would marry the same person isn't it?
Dizzy: yes, Host.
Cultivation world has innumerable miracles... and Faith-Beings were one of these miracles.
Two people having their faiths intertwined were called Faith-Beings. It wasn't simple interwinding thou; everything they experienced in their lives would be almost similar. It would be as if you are experiencing almost the same story in two unknown people.
And these faith-beings can be divided into three different categories. If the faith-beings were two girls, then they were called Faith-Sisters. Likewise, if it were two boys, they would be called Faith-Brothers.
And If the Faith-Beings were a pair of male and female, then they would be called Faith-couple.
Faith-beings.... whether It was a curse or Luck only time could tell.
If a Faith-Being was weaker than an ant, he couldn't be killed even if someone wanted to!Even the great celestial emperor would lift his hands up regarding this matter. This could be said as a lucky point.
However, a faith-being could be killed if he is killed along with his faith-partner at the same time.
And the cursed point is, If a faith-being commits suicide then his faith partner, who didn't have any intention to die, would also die in some unexpected way.
Now that he finished testing Boost ability, Sam commanded Dizzy in his mind: Dizzy, void your ability.
Dizzy: command accepted.
The Boost ability was nulled; thus Sam's brain processing speed slowed down to its normal pace. And everything came back to its norms.
The slowely moving time started to run...
Molly ate the meat fixed on the fork, and started to chew. On the other hand, Rose also received a spoon of rice into her mouth.
Molly suddenly remembered something: ”young master, 'Hellground' would be opened within two months... will you enter it?”
Sam already had plans to increase his cultivation, and the chance represented itself: ”yes, I will enter it..... strange isn't the Hellground opening a little too soon?”
Hellground always opens at the end of five years period, and the last time it opened was three years back. There were still two years for it to open as it was scheduled to be.
After thinking a while, Molly replied: ”It might be related to the preponing of Mortal-world's champion competition.”
Mortal world's champion..... a competition between young cultivators held at every 200 years in the mortal world. To know the strongest young cultivator in the mortal world.
Any cultivator could participate in it if he is within the age limit. Though this competition was just between juniors; but it was taken very seriously. Because it decides the future power-balance of great families and great sects.
And the prize from this competition even causes the old monsters of various major influences to salivate.
Sam asked: ”then to which date is this competition advanced?”
”exactly one year from now,” Molly said, and then she continued her lunch.
Sam thought to himself, { one year?...adifference of 150 years from when it was last conducted. Fifty years of preponing... what could be the reason?}
He continued thinking, {if it's held one year later from now..... then taking into consideration, how serious the great-families take this competition..... then the Junior selection competition must have cancelled.}
Sam asked: ”is the junior selection competition cancelled?”
