Weapon seller in the world of magic



Genesis Weapon Store;

"Eh? Why?" Xie Mei was taken aback as she was suddenly informed that they were leaving the city for good.

She was someone who grew up in the mountains and rarely stepped out of the sect. 

The teenager liked this bustling city and she often goes out to walk. 

And now, she hears that they were moving to a secluded island that has no human population. Obviously, she didn't like it.

But, will Mark cares about her opinion?

Naturally, he won't.

He straightforwardly said to her, "You can stay here with Allen if you want. I don't intend to close down the store anyways."

"Fine, you are the husband and the head of the family. Wherever you go, I have to follow," replied the teenager as she sat down.

Mark was irritated at her comment and he warned her, although not in a serious tone, "I believe we have an agreement that you won't address yourself as such until you were an adult. In the event you break the agreement, I can kick you out. Remember?"

"Eek!" As Xie Mei sprung up on her feet and hurriedly replied that she will not leave, Song Yue intervened and nicely told him not to tease her before informing her that they weren't actually living on an island but will be shifting their new residence to the Lunaris City.

"Ah! That's where your second wife lives," commented Xie Mei in realization.

Mark couldn't help but frown when he heard that. "She isn't my wife, Xie Mei."

"But, will become one day, right?" countered the teenager.

Mark then argued, "Yes, but when it happens, you can address her that way. Until then, she is the princess of the Western Moon kingdom."

Xie Mei stayed silent for a couple of seconds before asking Song Yue, "Sister Yue, I really want to ask something. Are you really comfortable with your Markie… I mean Lu Zhen to have another wife."

As Song Yue hesitated slightly, Mark replied in her place, "She is the one who convinced me to marry Princess Shen."

"Yeah," Song Yue mumbled while nodding slowly. However, her expression was slightly uncomfortable. Maybe, her growing attachment to Mark made her regret such a decision, lately. 

It was then, Mark added, "but then again, my marriage with Shen Ling is purely business. You can think of it like a business partnership. Even if I marry someone else in the future, it will be the same. Song Yue is the only one I love and I intend to stay that way. So, you too should forget about your ambitions for the marriage, kid."

"I'm not a kid. I'll turn 16 within a few weeks." Xie Mei almost screamed at Mark as she gets irked whenever he calls her that. She further added with a challenge, "And just you wait, I'll make you will fall head over heal for me and follow me like a puppy."

"Ha! Wishful thinking, pancake."

"See, I knew you adore me or else, why do call me by your favorite breakfast dish? You should stop denying it and marry me, okay?"

"No, I actually meant something else. And you should stop irritating me or else, I will really send you back to your home."

"Bleh, our destinies are tied. You are not going to send me away…"

"Destinies, what bullshit…"

As Mark and Xie Mei continue to bicker as usual and making the atmosphere quite lively, Song Yue shook her head with a smile and went upstairs to pack her clothes.

The afternoon passed away and the darkness took over the Vermillion bird continent.

The manticore, Xie Mei, Song Yue, and the golden kitten got into the vehicle. 

Mark gave a hug to his beloved android and said, "Allen, I leave this store in your hands. Once everything is finished as I planned, you may join me. Until then, take care of yourself. I know you can manage it on your own but it is best if you hire someone so that you also won't get bored to be alone. You have unlimited access to my inventory. So, don't need to wait for my permission to spend money or take out the goods to sell."

"Affirmed," replied Mark with a salute.

Mark then got onto the driver's seat and drove away from the vehicle. Allen waved his hands as a gesture of goodbye, and once the vehicle is out of his sight, he let out a deep sigh like a human and looked at the sky, "I hate times like this. It would be nice if there's indeed a person whom I can talk to without feeling uncomfortable."

The image of a person came to his mind and he mumbled, "I wonder what Sister Xue is doing right now? It's been a while since I last her. After that fiasco, we haven't met again. Let's go and meet her in the morning."

A few hours later;

Allen was walking back and forth in the upstairs living room while keep glancing at the wall clock. "It's still 12:30. There are 5 more hours to go."

As an android, he never needs to sleep.

And previously, when he is a rank-5 android, he was more of a robot than a human. His thoughts weren't complicated. He could just stay sit in a spot for hours without thinking of anything.

Now, after getting upgraded to rank-8, he has all the emotions that a human has. It's like he is a human born in the body of an android.

He cannot sit still. He has massive data in his core and it was keep running, not letting him sit in peace.

Not being able to resist the urge to see his only human friend (outside the Genesis Weapon Store family), Allen left the residence and flew to the inner sector.

Because he is an android and lacked any traditional cultivation, he won't be sensed by any experts around. However, if he flies too fast, the sonic boom generated by him will cause disturbance and he doesn't want to be caught by anyone's vision.

Hence, he flew at a slow pace and it took almost 30 minutes to reach Lin Wuying's mansion.

He came here many times and even knew what room at what residence his friend sleeps. Of course, even if he has no knowledge of it, there shouldn't be a problem. His Hyper sensors could spot her in an instant.

Allen slowly intruded into the house and reached Lin Xue's room, which was surprisingly lit up. The time was around 1 a.m. and Lin Xue still appeared to be awake. She was seriously writing something in a notebook.

At first, Allen planned to knock, but intending to surprise her, he scanned the room and saw that a window is opened.

He flew around and then went in through the window, only to land on the bed and alerted her due to the creaking sound of the bed.

As Lin Xue abruptly turned around and saw Allen, she almost screamed, "All…"

"en…" She managed to control her voice with a look of surprise on her face. "What are you doing here?" She asked curiously before suddenly remembering the fact that he is a high-quality puppet of the weapon seller just like Alina. Depression took over her instantly before anger replaced it.

Mark then said, "I'm here to see you."

"Oh! Around 1 o'clock?" Lin Xue's expression changed and she acted coldly towards him.
