Chapter 779: The truth from the start

Upon hearing that, Sheyan smiled without showing any surprise. He gazed at Zi with subtle emotions.
"You really are a prideful individual, saving this matter for the last."
Zi rolled her eyes and remained silent.
Sheyan pondered a little and said.
"In the last world, we accepted Demondream's plea to save you. Hence, we rescued you based on that, you don't owe us anything. Moreover, with your assistance, we reaped quite a handful of benefits as well which puts us on equal terms. Strictly speaking, we earned more actually."
Zi snorted and continued keeping her peace.
Sheyan went on.
"However, you received two green grade set equipment from us, and relinquished Illume-union to us. Is two green set equipment worth a large scale party? This is hard to determine and opinions differ between individuals. Even in a crisis, a single honorary medicine can be worth 10 dark-gold grade equipments! Hmm, hence, to you, you feel that you owe me and thus divulged this ultimate MT path secret to me. Now that both sides are even, you are finally willing to raise the matter of leaving the party?"
Zi's elegant dress wrapped around her tightly after she sat down, and smoothly outlined her curvy buttocks. Sheyan's attention congregated at her Gucci heels of exquisite craftsmanship and superior quality, before slowly moving up her slender black stockings till her perfect thighs; which exuberated a certain allure.
Zi obviously noticed his invading gaze and immediately withdrew her legs with discomfort before fuming.
"Ahem, what're you looking at?"
Sheyan chucked and scoffed in his heart; daring to show off, does this daddy dare not look?
He then said.
"You wish to leave the party? Possible, but not right now. You can do it back in the realm."
Zi was evidently startled.
"You agreed?"
Sheyan earnestly replied.
"Of course."
The puzzled Zi exhibited some doubt in her phoenix eyes.
"You're not asking for a reason?"
Sheyan laughed loudly.
"Why ask when I already know the reason."
Zi pursed her lips and seemed rather unconvinced.
"Fine then."
Sheyan folded his arms and lazily leaned back before saying.
"So, should we discuss about the specifics of your soul equipment? Hmm, with your power yet incapable of accomplishing the mission, I'm guessing it pertains to a restriction in manpower or completion quantity…oh, could it be you need a tanker?"
Zi glanced at Sheyan with slight surprise and whispered several words into her phone. Soon after, Miss Anitta strolled over with a document and left after casting a few curious glances at Sheyan.
Zi picked up the document and said.
"The soul equipment issued a relatively easy mission. Instead, the headache lies in finding the memories of this pen. I've already found some clues and after a series of investigations, can confirm that the previous owner of this pen is a Mister Sean Heim from Devon. He was a formal royal navy officer and after an incident in India where his spine was pierced by a stray bullet, he retired with a generous compensation of 87,000 pounds. An ordinary story but more importantly, he is still living blissfully."
Sheyan asked in astonishment.
"How's that possible?"
A Soul Equipment was an inheritance, which meant that the owner should be dead. Otherwise, why would there be grievances or regrets attached to it? Since one perishes in the nightmare realm, then the main body would officially perish as well in the real world…this was the law of the realm."
Yet such an inconceivable thing had happened.
A living owner of a Soul Equipment!
"Could it be?" Sheyan suddenly developed a incomparably shocking notion, one that left him thoroughly stunned. He was about to sip on his coffee mug but due to the shock, forgot to do so and poured the scalding coffee onto himself instead. Still, he felt……completely numbed.
Bear this in mind, Sheyan was normally a composed individual, being able to keep his cool and maintain his countenance even in the face of two MT-led parties. Yet this notion shook him entirely.
Noticing his absent-mindedness, Zi finally smiled. She felt rather delighted to witness a rare moment of Sheyan's shock, prompting her to reveal an exceedingly rare smile. Even her eyes joined in and revealed an unmatched enchantment that could move one's soul.
From afar, Miss Anitta was astounded. This was her first time seeing Zi smile so delightedly before.
Sheyan ignored his coffee-drenched body and frowned.
"The significance of this is too immense. No, tell me his address, I must verify this for myself."
One could deduce a certain conceitedness in her smile as Zi replied.
"No need for that, I have another piece of information."
At this moment, Sheyan noticed her smile and felt a sudden surge of itchiness, still he kept his cool and spoke.
"Do tell."
"This happened back when I just got acquainted with Zeus. While he was conversing with Sable, I unintentionally overhead a discussion about an Oscar award recipient which was unexpectedly from a movie I hadn't heard of before. Feeling curious, I inquired about some matters and immediately discovered, although their lives resembled ours in this real world, there were many differing aspects."
Zi's eyes revealed reminiscent expression as she continued.
"In their world, the winner of World War 2 was America and the allies. In their world, America experienced her first black president. In their world, Hong Kong had been completely assimilated into China. In their world, the Olympics is a quadrennial event. In their world, the author of the best selling novel is not Juantu……"
Sheyan paused silently for a brief while and asked.
"Anything else?"
"There is." Zi uttered. "Demondream also told me that her world history was also strangely different. In the world she lived in, the history differs from both our world's history and Zeus's world history……"
Following a momentary silence, Sheyan squinted his eyes and said.
"I understand now, Zi. Since that's the case, many things now add up. I must carefully dissect all these information, so, how shall we go about this 'Memory Pen' affair?"
Zi smiled and answer.
"Yes, now you understand. The 'Memory Pen' is probably left behind by someone from a parallel universe. The Sean Heim from that parallel universe became a contestant but died unfortunately. Hence, our world's Sean Heim is still alive and well; a mere mortal."
Sheyan realized something.
"This means that in another parallel universe, there is another me?"
Zi shook her head in response.
"No. According to my investigations, anyone who possess an extremely formidable innate is unique. Or do you think your innate ability is weak?"
Sheyan offered a wry smile and shook his head.
"Alright, how do we proceed with this Soul Equipment mission?"
Zi nodded and explained.
"According to my analysis, since I couldn't find the original Sean Heim, I could only activate the grievances stored in this soul equipment with the Sean Heim of this world. Don't look at me with that stupid look, I just needed some blood not a human's life. Next, I may experience a trial which is limited to only one assistant. Oh, you are the only MT I can find now, although weak, I have no choice but to make do."
"Oi oi oi." Sheyan answered dejectedly. "Your last phrase sounds wrong, is this the correct attitude of a pleader?"
Zi nonchalantly replied.
"Aren't you a basic realm contestant?"
This word pressed on Sheyan's soft spot as he chided with annoyance.
"Say that again, and I swear I will become more of a hindrance than a help for your mission."
Zi smiled once again and waved her hand. Several attendants from afar marched in and started serving a sumptuous dinner meal……
The following matters proceeded as normal. Sheyan and Zi was transported into a hallucinatory world conjured by the soul equipment, and passed the trial without expending much effort.
Furthermore, Sheyan also learned about some details regarding Zi during this period; like how she was a board director of the world renowned E.S Financial Group who possessed incredibly unbelievable wealth and power.
Next, Sheyan stayed inside this villa and continued tempering his body. He unexpectedly learned of a way to train his intelligence attribute and spirit, that wasn't inferior at all to the realm. Hence, he wasn't in a rush to return back to Taiwan, and decided to strengthen his two weakest attributes.

Finally, Sheyan received a notification and returned to the nightmare realm.
Party Ace congregated once again. Just when Sheyan received Zi's application to leave the party, Brother Black strolled over and feigned a relaxed composure while revealing to the other three.
"Boss, I'm afraid I won't be fighting alongside you in the next world."
