Warlord of Chaos

Chapter 264: The Notes

Early morning was the most lively time for the Reaper Mercenary Team. No matter what each person was up to later during the day, after getting up, they always gathered together to eat and gossip. This had become their daily routine.

Today was just like any other day, but while the group was talking happily, Yalina suddenly rushed in from outside the door.

Yalina had been living in her alchemy laboratory for a long while. When Julia had caught sight of Yalina, she instantly beckoned and smiled, as she had not seen Yalina for several days, “Yalina! Come, sit down.”

However, Yalina did not have time to say hello to Julia. At that moment, her eyes fixated on Moxinke as she asked abruptly, “Moxinke, are you practicing the River of Star Technique of Fighting?”

“Eh? Yeah, what’s wrong?” Moxinke did not get the reasoning behind Yalina’s sudden outburst. Everyone knew that he was practicing the River of Star Technique of Fighting. Yalina had even seen him using the technique in his fights before, it seemed there was absolutely no need to ask him specifically.

Suddenly, Yalina threw herself straight at Moxinke and grabbed his arm, “Come, come with me, I’ve got something I need to show you!”

“What... what for?” Moxinke felt a little nervous. Yalina’s posture seemed a little too seductive as her entire body was almost attached to him; he could even smell a faint fragrance exuded from Yalina’s hair and body.

“Come, I’ll tell you outside!” Yalina yanked Moxinke with great strength.

Moxinke did not move an inch. Instead, his eyes swept across other people in the room with a helpless look, as he forced out a sentence without rhyme or reason, “Don’t be like this... Hilna will kill me!”

“Who is Hilna?” Yalina did not understand. After all, she only heard of Hilna’s name a few times before, and the name had already journeyed into the back of her mind.

Reg instantly burst out into laughter as he wondered about how it was possible to be so narcissistic. Yalina was acting abnormal, she must’ve had some important matter at hand, but it obviously had nothing to do with their relationship. Even if Yalina’s desire for love stirred, due to the aspects of Moxinke’s appearance, character, and various abilities, Moxinke was not attractive at all, at least to someone like Yalina.

At that moment, Reg uttered in a weird tone, “Hilna... is his fiancée.”

“Fiancée?” Yalina turned dumbstruck for a brief moment, then suddenly understood Moxinke’s weird movements. She could not help but instantly turn furious, yelling out loud, “You... jerk!”

“What’s wrong with me?” Moxinke felt very wronged. He was having a good meal, then Yalina suddenly broke in and destroyed his appetite, and was now attacking him; it was all so unreasonable!

“You... you...” Yalina wanted to explain, but she also felt that there was no need to. After a long pause, she stomped her foot onto the ground before she turned and rushed outside.

“Yalina, what’s the matter?” Han Jin asked softly.

Yalina froze, hesitating for a short moment, and then explained, “I have opened Timothy’s space ring.”

“You’ve opened it?” Everyone in the room immediately turned silent. Although Timothy was still young, as the only son of Nicolas, he was absolutely the number two figure in the Kingdom of Magnificent Light, and his space ring would definitely store some very important things.

“What did you find?” Han Jin asked.

“I haven’t examined everything, but I found a book of notes sharing the experiences of practicing the River of Star Technique of Fighting. I guess it may be Nicolas’s handwriting, so I want Moxinke to have a look and see if the notes are useful.” Yalina glared at Moxinke as she spoke.

“Where’s the notes?” Moxinke’s voice trembled; practicing alone without guidance was like a blind man feeling an elephant. He had paid so much blood, sweat, and tears in practicing, but he had not received the corresponding rewards, which made him a little frustrated. Hearing Yalina’s words, Moxinke’s heart began to palpitate. The River of Star Technique of Fighting was indeed the technique that Nicolas was practicing, moreover, the notes were written for his son, and thus, they must’ve kept important key information for the technique. The notes were absolutely priceless!

Yalina ignored Moxinke completely. Afterall, Moxinke had just offended her greatly.

“Where’s the notes?” Han Jin repeated.

“They’re with me.”

“Let me have a look.” Han Jin held out his hand.

“What for? Do you want to practice the strength of fighting too?” Yalina was a little surprised. She then made her way towards Han Jin with a notebook she got from the space ring.

Han Jin grabbed the notebook and scanned through the notes thoroughly. Each person’s eyes were focused on Han Jin, especially the warriors such as Winston and Saxon. Their expressions seemed to be very nervous. Although they were not practicing the River of Stars Technique of Fighting, each of their techniques had some sort of similarities. If it really was Nicolas’s notes about his experiences of practicing the technique, they would also be able to learn valuable lessons.

Jeddes had not hidden anything from the group, so they all knew what kind of abilities Nicolas had. Being able to kill a Sword Saint of his same rank within an instant, it could be said that Nicolas was close to the legendary demigod! No one was willing to miss the opportunity to observe and learn from the experiences of such an important person!

As for Moxinke, there were no words to describe his regret, he even wanted to cry.

Han Jin turned a few pages, and his expressions started to turn increasingly solemn. He then flipped to the last few pages, reading them briefly, before he handed the notebook back to Yalina.

“Raphael, how was it?” Moxinke asked hastily.

“Go and beg for Yalina’s forgiveness.” Han Jin smiled, “The notes are extremely useful to you, no, I should say... they’re useful for all warriors.”

“Ya...” Moxinke’s eyes turned to Yalina, but he was only able to utter one syllable before he became lost for words.

Yalina sneered. She would’ve handed over the notes to Moxinke sooner or later, and that was the reason she hurried through the door. However, she was still in a bad mood. Before she felt satisfied, Moxinke would have no chance of getting it whatsoever.

“Cessacioun, do you have anything to do?” Han Jin asked.

“Me?” Cessacioun paused, “I do have something, but I can put it off for the moment being. Is there something you need me to do?”

“Help me copy Nicolas’s notes, they are also useful to me.”

“Sure, no problem.” Cessacioun nodded.

“I’ll go back first, then maybe... there are other important things in the ring.” Yalina’s heart had already flown back to her alchemy laboratory, as there were still so many things that she had not yet had time to examine!

“Take care of your health.” Han Jin said softly.

“I’m not a child, I know how to take care of myself.” Yalina smiled.

“I will go with you.” Cessacioun stood up.

“Sure.” Yalina said.

“I will go too.” Moxinke also stood up.

Yalina glanced at Moxinke without saying anything, then turned around and left.

“Don’t get struck by lightning.” Reg muttered.

Moxinke heard Reg’s mumble, and he quickly hesitated, but the desire in his heart still overwhelmed his fear. Resolutely, he walked out the door.

After a brief moment, as expected, several thunderous booms sounded outside. Following this, Moxinke walked back through the door and entered the room, collapsing onto the chair, appearing very sullen. No matter how angry Yalina was, she would not attack Moxinke with powerful magic. Moreover, Moxinke’s Defense Strength of Fighting was not weak at all, so he was not injured.

“Moxinke, what’s the hurry?” Han Jin smiled, “Yalina is in a fit of anger right now, you have to wait a few days.”

“I know, but... but...” Moxinke put on a long face.

There are some things that can’t wait until tomorrow. For example, if you show a child a piece of candy, and then tell the child to wait for a few days, even though the child would receive the candy sooner or later, wouldn’t it be a little cruel?

“Moxinke, what were you thinking?” Reg smiled tauntingly, “Seriously, I had never admired a person as much as I had today!”

“What do you mean?” Moxinke glared at Reg.

“I’m saying that I admire you!” Reg continued with great expression, “Why would you think... think that Yalina...” Reg did not know how to continue, if he was too explicit, it would hurt Moxinke’s feelings, but if he was too vague, he would not be able to fully express what he wanted to say.

Most of the people in the room were trying hard to hold back their laughter. In fact, each person in the room really liked Yalina. Not only did she have status, she was also already a magus at such a young age. She had strong abilities, and a bright future, moreover, she had a gorgeous appearance. Even Julia, who made Gibran go head over heels for her, could only be considered mediocre compared to Yalina, and only Sunier was comparable to her. In addition, despite her status, Yalina did not act uptight, as she was friendly and approachable to everyone. This was the reason why no one believed that Yalina was once considered the renowned cold beauty in the magic academy of the Capital of Elements.

Such a girl was the lover in each man’s dreams. Although each person in the group admired her, they clearly understood the huge gap. Most people in the group were single, but no one even attempted to date Yalina. That was also the difference between them and the students in the magic academy. Although they were not very different in age, each person had hustled through many hardships, which allowed them to learn about themselves carefully. That was not something that the young magic students could do. Since the God’s Language Magic Academy only recruited from the nobles, most students were ‘favoured by God’. Since they were young and inexperienced, they loved to daydream, and because of their background and undue self-confidence, they dared to put their dreams into action. Every student believed they were unique and outstanding, and they all hoped to get Yalina’s love, and such forced Yalina to wear a mask at all times.

“It’s so early in the morning, my mind hadn’t even had a chance to wake up!” Moxinke blushed as he argued, “If suddenly a woman rushed in, hugged you tightly, and then asked to talk with you alone, what would you think?”

“But I would still never get that idea that Yalina is interested in me.” Reg laughed.

“Stop arguing.” Han Jin stood up, “Moxinke, can’t you just wait a few days? If your goal is to stay as a fighter, then ignore what I’m saying, but if you set very high goals for yourself... What could you achieve if you can’t even control your emotions? ”

“But I...”

“Do you want to say that it’s different because those are Nicolas’s notes?” Han Jin smiled, “If today, you can’t control yourself because of the circumstances, then tomorrow, you will encounter other situations that will make you lose control and you will still find excuses for yourself! I know that this is probably the breakthrough that you have been seeking, but if you go on like this, you won’t attain anything. Listen to me, you have to start learning now, start with enduring this.” After he finished speaking, Han Jin slowly walked out the door.

Moxinke suddenly went silent as he slowly picked up the fork, forked a piece of bread, and chewed it bit by bit.

“Did you notice that Raphael has changed a lot recently?” Julia said softly to Gibran.

Quiet whispers echoed all around the room. Obviously, each person in the room shared the same thoughts.
