Millennium Tension

Chapter 65: Heading To The Hidden Realm Gate

Ana tells the story of her past with a passive face but her tears keep flowing as if representing her feelings.

"My dear daughter. All is over and we will be fine." Aizen hugs Ana tightly and doesn't say much after hearing the story of his daughter's past. Now everything is clear and it's over.

"En!" Ana hugged back tightly even to grab Aizen's clothes until tangled.

Aizen continues by gently stroking the whiny girl's hair that continues to cry silently in his arms until she sleeps. He then took a sleeping position on the simple mattress with Ana in the middle.

Axel said nothing after Ana's story and just smiled at Aizen who was staring at him as if he was waiting for her. She then approaches Ana's back and positions herself before hugging Ana.

Ana is fast asleep still hugging Aizen tightly with a small smile on her face. At this time, the three of them were more like a happy little family consisting of father, mother, and daughter who slept in their midst.

Aizen saw Axel's eyes which were also staring at him.

"We don't know what the future will be like, but I don't know if we will always be together. Life and death is a law that I don't understand. Now I'm starting to doubt my promise to you to be together forever."

Aizen said what he was thinking right now. It is not uncommon for him to question himself about the decision he will make, but this time he is more like asking for directions or suggestions by voicing it out.

"Master Aizen, keep being yourself, and don't be afraid to promise us. Everything you say, I say, and Ana says is true. I await you and Ana as you rise to [Rank 4] to do further." Axel smiled warmly answered with pleasure.

"Is that so? I'm glad you're here, Axel." Aizen said it sincerely even though he did not know what Axel meant by that, but he knew that it was a good thing.

"With pleasure."

The two of them then closed their eyes to rest following Ana's deep sleep. Actually with their superior body now, they don't need to rest, but quality sleep can clear their minds back to work more optimally.

The moon descended and was replaced by the sun which signaled the morning's welcome. In the morning which is still called dawn, Aizen, Ana, and Axel wake up alternately greeting the day.

"Good morning."

"Um. Good morning."

"Good morning, too."

The three of them got out of bed and then tidied their tangled clothes before immediately leaving the room to the first floor complete with their face cover. They also want to see the showcase of the proud young generation.

"Big brother and big sisters! Good morning!" Little Xiao came to greet them from the dining room. She was up early in the morning to help the work of her parents with enthusiasm.

"Well... You wake up so early, you're diligent." Aizen praises lightly.

"Look~ Look... My teeth will change to a newer and stronger tooth!" Little Xiao showed off her teeth that had just come off to Aizen's group.

Ana and Axel just giggled softly at the little girl's behavior.

"That's good. That indicates you are starting to grow from a little girl to a big girl."

Aizen stroked the little girl's hair a little which resulted in a small laugh from her.

"Alright, where is your mother, little Xiao?"

"Mother is in the kitchen with Daddy!" Little Xiao happily answered.

"Can you tell them we will take our breakfast out?"

"Sure! Wait a minute." Little Xiao trotting into the kitchen and carrying out his orders.

Shortly thereafter, Ms. Han came over with a small basket of simple provisions. At the inn, they usually provide breakfast in the form of simple provisions to be taken out by guests like this because most of them will be busy in the morning. But because Aizen was so kind to her daughter, Ms. Han decided to increase their breakfast stock into a picnic basket.

"Young master and young ladies, do you want to go?" Ms. Han greeted them lightly while giving them the picnic basket, but the one who received it was Axel.

"Yes. It's time. Thank you for the picnic breakfast."

"It's nothing. You're so friendly with my daughter. Then have a nice and careful day on the way. Little Xiao, say your goodbyes." Ms. Han knows where they are headed because most visitors who deliberately come to this city have the same goal, which is exploring the hidden realm.

"Un! See you soon, kind big brother and pretty big sisters! One day I want to be a great cultivator like you! At that time, please take me to a beautiful place." Little Xiao chirped about something to expect.

"Hehe... When you become a great cultivator, you can explore on your own. See you later." Aizen felt a little amused by the little Xiao's chirp.

Then, Aizen left with Ana and Axel who followed from the side, while little Xiao waved her hand for a moment from the entrance of their inn before returning to her morning duties.

'Fufu... She is a diligent little girl. With your help yesterday, maybe it won't take too long for her to awaken her spirit power then she will start in the world of cultivation.' Axel put the picnic basket into [Space Storage] and talked in her mind about little Xiao.

'Yes, maybe next month or two she will realize what I said yesterday. She only reminded me of Ana when she was little. Hehe...'

'What? Myself? How about me?' Ana is interested in Aizen's murmurs.

'She is an innocent little girl who is super spoiled attention seeker.'

'Is that me in your eyes? in the past when I was little? ' Ana smiled sweetly behind her veil, remembering that she was acting like that.

'Yes, it is my beloved daughter who makes my heart festive every day.' Aizen confessed simply before the three of them teleported to a location near the gate leading to the hidden realm when they were far from observing people in a small alley.

Meanwhile at the previous inn, to be exact on the second floor, there were three girls from the Eternal Snow Sect who were discussing something.

Lin Yu and her two junior sisters once again tried to wait a moment for Aizen's group to come out of their room. Unfortunately, they woke up a little late from Aizen's group and missed them a while ago.

"Senior Sister, why are we sitting here again? Shouldn't we already have to head to the gate to the hidden realm?"

"Yes, what if we are late? Oh yes, for yesterday why did we wait here for almost an hour?"

Xun Ai and Su Xia chirped in the morning. Lin Yu knew that and finally told them about her point of view about the group that was also on the same floor as them.

"What? They are that strong? Even Senior Sister Lin Yu can't feel anything from them? Not to mention their status seems to be very high..." Xun Ai muttered blankly, she while she was at the auction house, she was grumbling because of them, and it turned out they are on the same lodging floor.

"If they are that strong, why are we waiting for them?" Su Xia still did not understand why the three of them waited again.

"Just a moment, agree? I want to ask them a little question." Lin Yu didn't tell the truth because it might be hard to believe for her junior sisters. She has a hunch, if she follows the unusual group of Aizen to explore together in the hidden realm, she will find something extraordinary.

She did not dare look inside using the power of her spirit for fear of offending them. The three of them waited a moment until little Xiao came to the second floor.

"Big sisters! What are you doing there?" Little Xiao greeted them lightly.

"Little sister, it's nothing, we're just sitting around." Lin Yu made a simple excuse for them.

"Oh, I see." Little Xiao did not ask more questions and immediately opened room number 7 for cleaning.

Because the room is empty, there needs to be cleaned. Little Xiao swept the clean floor and tidied up the bed that the guest hadn't even touched while humming.

Lin Yu was surprised to see that the room that was supposed to be filled was already empty. Aizen's group left before she woke up yet? Then she approached little Xiao.

"Little sister, did the guest who was here leave?"

"Un! They just came out of here."

Lin Yu was rather annoyed and a little nervous, she still wanted to meet them first and ask a few things that had not been answered even by sect her. But the person she was waiting for had left, what if they had entered the hidden realm?

Then she thanked little Xiao and immediately rushed to the gate to the hidden realm with her two junior sisters. Lin Yu as the oldest in the group did not know much about the hidden realm apart from information from her seniors and her sect. She believes there is more to it, given the gate to the new hidden realm is quite rare.

According to information provided to her about the hidden realm that appeared 10 years ago, one of her seniors said that hidden realm is very dangerous the deeper you go, she loses one of her two junior sisters during a one-month exploration due to exploring too deep and making them trapped dangerous trap.

Unfortunately, further details do not want to be told again, maybe because of a painful loss. But Lin Yu was sure, there must be more to it, she felt something was hidden from her.
