BXBX NOVEL Chapter 102 The Han Parents
They then entered their house. It was a simple and small wooden house, its yard functioning both as a chicken coop and a bath place. A well is situated just in front of the house for easy access to water.
Inside, it was normal, a haystack covered with cloth functions as a bed and a table, and a chest is placed on the side.
Qiaoyi closed the window and made sure that nothing could be seen inside. The man went and got a lamp and lit the candle inside and hung it on the ceiling.
Matthias went to the bed and sat comfortably and looked at the two people doing what they needed to do.
After making sure that everything is complete and there are no flaws, the two people knelt down simultaneously, "Greetings, Your Majesty!" They said at the same time.
Matthias nodded. "You know the details to support my identity?"
The man spoke first, "Han Jianyu, 28 years old, a former soldier of the dynasty, known to the outside as a retired soldier, currently a secret elite from the newly formed Dynastic Guards. Relatives are Han Yike as father, Han Qiaoyi as mother, Han Bo as uncle. Other details would be handed over by Commander Sikong of the Second Lineage of The Order."
Matthias nodded. They are well-informed. The Second Lineage of The Order is the Black Crow\'s branch wherein its members consist of people of the Immortal Territories. He also noticed that one of his identities is being a part of the Dynastic Guards.
The Dynastic Guards are also one of Qin\'s secret forces that he and Cane started when they were first planning for the dynasty\'s development. The group was made not to be directly under him, but instead to be under the Imperial Throne, so that once he stepped down and passed the rule over to the next generation, the realm would still be secure as long as the group existed.
The guards consist of former soldiers of the dynasty that find large-scale wars not their style but still want to protect the territory. Trainings are extremely strict and grueling, with close to impossible obstacles that is needed to be completed for hundreds and hundreds of times, countless battles between assassins that are trained by Black, trainings inside an independent space where different types of scenarios and places are simulated, practice and experiencing torture methods, and many more.
If they fail the training, their memories of everything would be erased but they would not be barred from re-entering, slowly harnessing another kind of strength; Instinct.
Once they successfully complete all the training which amounts to a century inside the realm, they would be put to a test, which would be sealing their memories, relying only on their instincts to survive battles and learn more.
If they survive, they would be part of the new Dynastic Guards. If they did not, their souls would become nourishments to the realm, adding to the future warriors\' opponents inside the independent realm.
"Tell me about yourselves and how you became part of the order." Matthias looked at them and said.
Han Qiaoyi was the first one to speak, "Your Majesty, We have been living here for ten years already, so we are very familiar with the people here. Yike and I moved here when a corrupt official once seized our ancestral home and tens of other houses to build a resting hall for the men of the Five Mountains Sect to curry favor with them."
Han Yike also spoke, "I was once a part of the old Assassin\'s Union of the Devoured Sun Kingdom. My cultivation, which is already at the Soul Knight Realm puts me on the higher echelons of the clan, but no one but the three highest elders of our clan knew me. My wife was also a Soul Strengthening Realm assassin that was incredibly mysterious inside the union so no one really knew her."
"Our Han Clan was one of the great eight families 30 years ago that protected the stability of the kingdom when the Union offended the Soul Pavilion by assassinating one of the key figures to the union of the three sects. They erased the Assassin\'s Union from existing and annihilated all the members that they discovered." Han Yike explained.
(Author: As the cultivation realms wasn\'t really explained that much, here are the realms above Soul Palace Realm; Soul Warrior Realm x5 power every realm, Soul Knight Realm, Soul Prince Realm, Soul King Realm, Divine Warrior, Knight, Prince, King Realm x9 power every realm, 9 ranks, Nirvana Realm - Emptying the reserves of qi and destroying Soul Palace and restructuring and refining it. Former strength to the third power, Sacred Realm - x4 power, Divine Heaven Realm - x7 power, Active Soul Realm - x4 power, Immortal Realm - strength to the fifth power.)
"The Han Clan was also discovered to be associated with the Union and was attacked by the three sects."
"We were lucky to escape and pretend to be part of the lowest branch of the clan that wasn\'t that close to the main branch so the sects spared us."
"We then lived silently in the midst of mortals. We lived like a normal citizen inside this village until Lord Black discovered us."
"He saw our potential and recruited us to become one of the elders of the Second Lineage. Now, a lot of the members of the Order are scattered throughout the land to provide intel for the order." Han Qiaoyi said.
Matthias smiled and nodded his head with approval. "Then, I expect flawless performance. My identity must not be known to outsiders."
"It is a must, Your Majesty!" Han Yike replied, "Although Your Majesty is incredibly powerful, the Immortal Territories\' danger isn\'t just from the cultivators."
Matthias raised his eyebrow with intrigue. The only information that he wanted to hear before was about the territories and their management. It was a plus that he discovered the existence of cultivators and powerful people but it\'s new to him that there might be other dangers inside this mystical realm of territories.
"Do tell." Matthias extended his hand, beckoning them to speak.
