Mystical Journey

Panda Novel

At noon, Garen and Celine were sparring again in the training room. After correcting her flaws and mistakes and training her hard, Garen left Celine’s place as he sat in the Levitating Car which had come to pick him up.

The Charm Mercenary group’s leader had personally driven the car to fetch him.

The captain of the group who had shoulder-length golden curly hair was none other than Inari.

This elegant captain who was in the driver seat kept looking at Garen who sat beside her. She seemed to have obtained intel of his battle in the alley.

“What are you looking at, Ms. irresponsible Captain?” Garen glanced at her coldly. “You didn’t finish a single one of the tasks I’d assigned to you. I feel that it’s pointless to hire you guys.”

Inari was slightly frozen as she didn’t expect Garen to scold her the moment he opened his mouth.

“Sir Nono, please don’t be mean to us. We are doing our best. You have to understand that the White Light’s Mech was overwhelmingly powerful. We’re just Level One and Two Pilots. How could we ever hope to fight against those Level Five elites?”

“Then what’s the point of me hiring you people?” Garen adjusted his hair which had been blown around by the wind as he looked at the view through the windshield while they sped along the highway.

“We weren’t just sitting there and do nothing, Sir Nono,” Inari smiled. It was the very first time that she had worked with a man that treated them equally as a mercenary. In the past, all their employers were just men who kept staring them as if they were some sort of meat instead of mercenaries.

This time around, she felt a sense of respect from Garen’s attitude. It was a respect that she had been yearning for a long time.

“Let’s hear about it. What can you guys do?” Garen asked softly.

Inari smiled again once more.

“I assume you’ve heard of the pulse wave incident, right?”

Garen nodded as he had just received intel on it from Kendall that the special detectives that had been mobilized by the higher-ups had focused their attention on the tracking device. They were too busy to pay heed to his radiation and the death of his team member. Even the portrayal of his immense talent and battle sense were neglected. It was obvious that the Forbidden Core was so important that the higher-ups were willing to ignore the rest.

He was happy with the results as well. If he were to obtain the core and hand it over, he might have been silenced by them as well. After all, no one could be sure that he hadn’t obtained any mysterious intel from the core. He would be dead the moment there was the slightest suspicion towards him.

This result was the best for him, where the higher-ups managed to obtain the tracking device. When he returned back to his team, he had purposely stabbed his Mech to make it seem like he was seriously injured from the Reflection and was too weak to chase after them. This was to prevent him from being suspected.

He was barely able to suppress the issue as this issue itself could be serious on its own. He was fortunate that he had been in good relationships with the higher-ups and Britney had tried to speak on behalf of him. In addition to that, Celine had sent people to tend the matter along with the Honorable Noble. Hence, the higher-ups had stopped going after him and focused their full attention on the Forbidden Core’s tracking device.

As he came back to his senses, Inari had already started her explanation.

“The main culprits of the pulse wave incident were the elites from the white light group,” she said softly. “It wasn’t one of their members that you’d faced but their actual elite!”

“Oh?” Garen felt worried now; he had to reveal his trump card to fight, and even so, he had barely been able to kill a typical member who was in a seriously injured condition. If he were in perfect condition, Garen would’ve been the first one to run away.

It was similar to a young trainee who had encountered a legendary elite. Their skills were not of the same rank and they weren’t even just a level apart. Garen could’ve died from his internal energy alone.

If the person and his Mech were in a good condition, he wouldn’t have been able to move from his Energy Field and he wouldn’t be able to use any battle skills at all.

“The White Light Group has the Shining Mech, which was the one you’ve encountered. The one who had performed the assassination was a Great Light Mech, which is considered a leader who manages the Shining Mech. He possesses incredible strength!” Inari said seriously. “Also, I’ve heard some intel regarding the Great Light Mech.”

“How is that related to me?” Garen questioned back.

“Since you’ve killed one of their Shining Mechs, regardless if he was a traitor, you’re the main reason the Blackboard Region’s higher-ups have obtained the tracking device from the Mech. The opponent will definitely hunt for you when they fight against the higher-ups,” Inari was very direct with a slight sense of ridicule in her tone. “When that time comes, no matter how gifted you are, the result of fighting against a few Level Fives and an even stronger pilot in the perfect condition would spell…”

“That is my issue,” Garen narrowed his eyes.

“So? Do you know how important we are now?” Inari smiled as she continued driving. Suddenly she felt something crawling up into her white T-shirt from below which went straight to her breasts. Her bra was taken off and both of her breasts were squeezed tightly and all she felt was an immense pain.

“You!!” her face blushed. Since she was driving on the road at high speed, she didn’t dare to take her hands off the wheel else she would risk being in an accident.

Inari felt that her breasts were being fondled with as though they were just toys. This made her very embarrassed.

“Even if you’re useful in this aspect, so what?” Garen casually responded as he felt the soft sensation on his hand without changing his facial expression. “Everything else is just an excuse if you don’t perform your duty.”

Inari suddenly felt that her T-shirt was being pulled upward. The side windows of the car were transparent. Without the cover, everyone on the streets could’ve seen her body the moment her shirt was taken off.

“Don’t you dare!!” Inari gritted.

“I am only giving you a warning,” Garen gently tapped on her body and a cold item came out from his sleeve and stuck lightly onto the underside of Inari’s breasts.

It was a light blue ball of meat. As it stuck onto her skin, it naturally opened up like a crumpled paper attempting to return back to its original shape. It soon became thinner and thinner until it was completely attached to her skin. Then, it started assimilating into the skin.

However, Inari didn’t seem to realize at all as she squirmed her body about embarrassingly, trying to get away from Garen’s hand.

The Distorted Seed…

Garen had created the seed of the Hellfrost Peacock which could create monsters. He then gently placed it into Inari’s heart. As long as he willed it, it would instantly explode and turn Inari into a chaotic radioactive monster.

Garen put away his hands without any change in his expression as if he had done nothing at all.

“If you like this kind of foreplay, I’ll let you play with Julie and the others when we get back instead of fooling around on the highway! Please hold yourself back!” Inari scolded in embarrassment.

“I’m not satisfied with your attitude,” Garen reached out his hand and pinched Inari’s chin.

Crack!!

“Ah!!! You…!!” Inari felt an intense pain in her chin, so strong that the sound of bone cracking could be heard. Her inklings of pride and contempt were immediately replaced by a sense of fear.

“A decoration has its own uses,” Garen moved his hands away calmly.

“Are you still a man! How dare you touch me when you can’t win verbally!”

“Of course, isn’t this what men do best?” Garen questioned her back.

Inari was speechless.

“Alright let’s stop fooling around. Drive the car safely,” Garen had a sudden interest in releasing his Distorted Seed’s parasite into her. He wanted to try out how effective it is and would activate it when the opportunity arose.

He decided on Inari as his subject because he had the right opportunity and this girl seemed to be very mysterious as well. She also seemed to have a rich amount of intel and channels, and hence she could be his ears.

He suddenly realized that he now had a lot of sudden urges to fool around, unlike back in the days where he kept fighting for his life. All this time, his life was about fighting and nothing else.

“Is this the effect of having more Soul Seeds?” he touched his chin as he listened to Inari’s complaints.It seemed that Inari wasn’t completely rejecting his ‘sudden ambush’. This was most likely because of his battle strength and his wealth, which gave this materialistic woman a good impression.

After putting away all these nonsensical thoughts, Garen recalled the scenario where he had let Clint and his brother escaped.

As his sword was bent in that instant, he had heard a voice from the cockpit, or one could say that the voice had been directly transferred into his consciousness.

“What you really need is a truly powerful Willpower Training Method. With your talent, you’re burying it by only using the Crouched Eagle Talon,” this voice immediately pointed out his weakness.

Garen stopped moving as he stood still. Although Baylon was speaking beside him and Clint was moving, he focused his attention on the voice.

“Who are you? What are you trying to tell me?” he tried to question back in his mind.

“I want your core, are you interested in doing a trade with me?” the voice continued asking.

“Trade? Can you give me what I want?”

“Naturally.”

After exchanging information.

Garen moved his machete and chose not to chase after Baylon and Clint who were running away.

He had originally planned on persuading the person who had the core to pursue what he needed, but he didn’t expect that the opponent had thought of working with him as well.

What he didn’t expect the most was that his own brother had turned into that appearance. Furthermore, he seemed to be in a good relationship with the man who possessed the core.

He didn’t plan to kill Clint as well and followed along with the flow when his machete was diverted. He wanted to observe in detail how different a person who could shock the Soul Seed was as compared to the rest.

In the end, both of them were satisfied with the results.

However, the only thing Garen was unsatisfied was to see that his brother Baylon was dressed up like a girl, or perhaps he had a transsexual operation, as it didn’t make any sense for him to turn into that state. Fortunately, he had killed the only witness and no one knew that his brother was related to the person who possessed the core.
