Chapter 1478 Some More Information
1478 Some More Information
Since Jasmine got the Notebook of Guardians, Tim took the Whistle of Elementals. They began using it to see how it worked and what it did.
Jasmine wrote both Tim’s and Ning’s names into the book to see what information she got.
Tim’s information was normal. It told her where he was born and where he had been raised. The cape town he hailed from was the place he had lived his entire life.
Tim had no diseases and was currently extremely happy to have received his whistle.
Jasmine then looked at Ning’s information and frowned. In the places Ning had been to, the very first name was the Anaeric ocean.
“You were born in the sea?” Jasmine asked, confused somewhat.
“No.” Ning answered. ‘I was not.’
“Then why is the first location the Anaeric Ocean?” she asked, showing the details on the page.
Ning looked at the page and gave a small smile. “I wonder why”
“Show me that,” Tim said quickly and took Jasmine’s book, staring at it for a few seconds with a weird expression on his face.
“Are you okay?” she asked.
“This is where I met sir Ning, he said quickly before looking back at Ning. “This is the first time I saw you. How come that is the first thing recorded here, as though you didn’t exist before this.”
Ning shrugged. “Who knows,” he said.
“And these places. Tremala, Twomiles, these are the places you’ve visited with me. It’s almost as though nothing you did before this moment was recorded at all.”
“That would seem to be the case, Ning said.
“Then did you not exist before I saw you back there?” Tim asked. He thought for a moment and quickly pulled out his horn.
Both Ning and Jasmine looked at him curiously when he blew the horn all of a sudden.
“What are you doing?” Jasmine asked.
Ning was curious too when he suddenly got a system notification.
<An outsider is trying to influence your thoughts and intelligence. Do you wish to block it?>
Ning looked at the notification in surprise. “How is that possible? How can he even possibly control mc?”
He was about to tell the system to block it when he realized that doing so would deal a great deal of backlash to Tim.
Ning sighed in the end and allowed the horn to influence him. He wanted to see what happened anyway. Tim suddenly moved back, grabbing his head with both his hands as he fell to the ground with a headache that far surpassed anything he had felt before.
Ning sighed. He understood that just because he had let Tim control him, didn’t mean he could.
With a swipe of his hand, he removed Tim’s headache and let him stand up again. “You shouldn’t try that again,” he said. “You cannot handle something like that.”
“Yeah, Tim said. “I was stupid. But I at least know it is possible to bond with you. I’ve always suspected that the bright light I see when bonding with a beast is you, but today I know for certain. That makes me wonder. Why does my treasure consider you a beast?”
Ning gave a small grin. “Why indeed?”
“At the very least, you are not human, are you?” Tim asked. “You look human, you act human, but… there is something else going on with you.”
Ning chuckled a little. “I thought at least that much was obvious,” he said. “But I am as human a human can get. with a small exception!”
“Oh yeah? And what is that exception?” Jasmine asked.
“I don’t have a soul.”
Jasmine paused, her eyes narrowing in scrutiny to see if she could find humor in Ning’s words. But there was no humor. There was no jest.
He was speaking the truth.
“Dear Zurinus!” she cursed out loud. “You’re telling the truth.”
“I am,” Ning said. ‘I guess that’s one more thing you guys know about me.”
“What are you?” Jasmine asked.
“That book doesn’t tell you, does it?” he asked.
Jasmine took back the book from Tim and read it. There was no mention of what Ning was anywhere on the page. In the end, she shook her head in return.
“Understandable. Zhorlia doesn’t have information on what I am, so the treasures it creates won’t know that as well, Ning said.
“Zhorlia?” Tim asked. “The planet?”
“Yes,” Ning said. “Oh right, I haven’t explained to you how treasures form, have I?”
“No…” Tim said.
“Zhorlia, the planet we are in, has a will of its own. It’s a will still in its infancy, but even that has allowed the planet to determine what it likes and what it does not.”
“The type of Energy that is in this world works in a way where they allow powers to others by letting them bond treasures. And that treasure is determined by whatever the world wants to make.”
“It doesn’t yet truly have any sort of sapience, but there is enough intelligence for it to copy things, which it does to create treasures out of the mist, Ning answered.
Both Tim and Jasmine were stunned to hear that. “That’s… what Tony has been searching for this entire time, isn’t it?” Tim asked.
“Yeah, and he’ll have to keep searching I’m afraid,” Ning said. “There’s also more to it, which I wonder if 1 should tell or not.”
Ning giggled a little as he thought of the other piece of information he had unearthed during these many weeks under the ocean.
“What information?” Tim asked curiously. He was more curious than Jasmine about learning what it was.
Ning thought for a bit. “I won’t tell it to you right now,” he said. “It is too much information, but… I can tell you what it is about.”
Tim and Jasmine wondered what it was that Ning was talking about.
Ning smiled and stared at Tim. “Ever wonder why you were born the way you were?” he asked.
“The way I was?” Tim asked.
“Yes. The way you were. Ever wondered why you and only a select few people have powers that others don’t have.”
Tim frowned. “Why?” he asked.
Ning shrugged. “I told you, that is information for another time. Let us scatter the amount of information I dump on you each time!”
“No, I want to know,” Tim said.
“I’m sorry, but you’ll have to wait,” Ning said. “But I’ll promise you this. The day I give you your 4th treasure that I promised, I will tell you everything you want to know.”
Tim hesitated. He wanted to learn more right now, but he nodded in the end. “Can you explain in detail what you meant carlier though? About the planet and its creating treasures.
“Sure.”
Ning began elaborating on what he meant. The talk went on for nearly an hour, with Tim asking every sort of question, most of which led to him and Jasmine figuring out just how much of a liar Zurinus was. Jasmine sighed, unsure how she could have ever been so devoted to a person like that. She had been so devoted that she even spoke his name by mistake from time to time when she was surprised, shocked, or
scared.
“Jasmine has received her 3 treasures I promised, Ning said. “And Tim had received 3 of the 4 treasures I promised. So I have done most of my share of the work, leaving me with only a few more things to do.” “You find another treasure for Tim, Jasmine said. “And then you help me establish an orphanage. Isn’t that it?” “In a way,” Ning said. “But I said we would be traveling for a year until we found Zurinus, and it has only been half a year. We still have another half of a year left to go around the world.
Jasmine couldn’t believe Ning’s words when she heard them. She had been with him for 6 months, maybe some more than that. A lot of it had been spent in Airan and a lot in different cities all around the world. But most of it, they had spent underwater in the submarine, which traveled aimlessly through the ocean until Ning felt like it was time to go find a treasure.
“When do we go for the final treasure?” Tim asked Ning.
“That… will have to wait for some time, Ning said with a mysterious smile. ‘I need to take care of something
very important right now.”
“Oh, what is it?” Jasmine asked.
“You will know soon,” Ning said. “We are approaching the location right now. Shouldn’t take us more than a few hours now. We were luckily quite close already.”
The two got curious, but there was no way for them to tell where it was they were approaching, so they decided to wait and see.
Time passed quickly enough for them, and they felt the change in gravity as they surfaced, they knew they had
arrived at the place.
Tim and Jasmine watched through the screen at the front to see where they had come to, but all they could see was water and some long wooden pillars that appeared to be the docks.
They couldn’t tell anything, so they walked up to the surface. When they arrived back outside, Jasmine and Tim looked at the dock, feeling as though they had been there before.
“Oh wait,” Jasmine said out loud. ‘Isn’t this Gova City? The place where we found Tony. Why are we back
here?”
“It is,” Ning said with a smile. “We are back here because the thing I have been waiting for finally happened! “Our inventor’s manager finally sent us a message”
