Weapon seller in the world of magic

Later on, that night;

”Anan (Golden kitten) got abducted, Baltrow (Manticore) got killed, all five of my Rank-9 robots that are deployed here are destroyed alongside a significant portion of my robotic army, Sylvandira and mom were heavily injured for resisting the enemies, and Lan Ju (Zheng) was forced to leave with them as a hostage.

While this was all going on, that bas*ard guardian god, Yujiang didn’t make a move. Can anything get worse than this… *sigh*”

Mark doesn’t know who to get angry with.

Is it his fault for not taking extra steps to secure his family?

Is it the Moon Goddess’ fault for putting him through a troublesome quest of hers and wasting his time, because of her half-knowledge?

Is it the fault of Yujiang, who was supposed to deny the entry of any Saint and above realm cultivator or a beast?

Or is it the fault of his sister who landed herself in trouble in the first place, trying to get the Orb of time without consulting him?

Many things ran through his head, as he was lying on the bed and staring at the ceiling, not being able to sleep; Song Yue and Little Lu Shan, on the other hand, were sleeping in peace. Perhaps, Song Yue was affected quite the most, by this incident. Even after fours into the sleep, her hands were tightly around his arm.

After thinking thoroughly about how to get back his friends (Zheng and Anan) while making sure to keep his wife and the child safe from any kind of problematic enemies, Mark decided to finish up his old promises.

The next day morning, in the King’s study room;

”You can’t be serious,” King Shen Niu couldn’t control his voice as he heard Mark’s decision. ”But, there are no auspicious dates around,” Princess added, with a frown on her face.

Mark shrugged his shoulders, ”The recent incident made it clear that I have a lot of enemies that I still need to take care of, in this place before I go and save my friends. I’m not telling you to hurry up the marriage preparations in a day or two. I just want you to look for the best date possible for the marriage, during this time. After that, I might leave this place for a few years.

So, it is up to you if you want to marry your daughter to me or wait until I get back.”

”Four weeks? That’s enough time,” Shen Niu’s eyes lit up instantly. ”Leave it to me,” He raised his tone once again, but this time, it was in excitement.

Of course, he was excited. For the past few months, Shen Niu was pestering Mark for the marriage every now and then. Shen Ling, who was still working on pushing for the reforms of removing Patriarchy in the Kingdom, kept on postponing it in the name of not having auspicious dates so far.

She wants to have enough support before the marriage so that when they officially become husband and wife, she will directly announce her candidacy for the throne.

She and Mark made the agreement long ago. Now when he becomes her husband, he would gladly use his power to remove Patriarchy in the kingdom and crave the path for her to succeed her father as the first-ever Queen Regnant.

Mark supported her as it is what she wants to do.

But, the situation has changed and so were his plans.

Shen Ling obviously was displeased by his announcement, without even consulting with her beforehand.

But, she cannot say anything in her father’s presence and can only stay silent, until she escorted him to the gardens with an excuse of spending some quality time together.

When they were finally alone in one of the gardens of the palace, Shen Ling inquired about him and expressed her displeasure on the matter too.

Mark took a glance around and leaned his head to her ear, whispering his plans for her.

”Wha…” Shen Ling’s eyes widened and she took a step back in surprise. ”Now it finally makes sense why Cabinet and the alliance were established. It was never about…”

”Shh…” Mark stepped forward and put his finger on his lips, ”Some things cannot be revealed before they happen.”

Shen Ling bloomed into a smile and nodded, ”I understand.”

A few hours later, Mark and his family (Song Yue, Lu Shan, and Shang Jiao) left the city in their Spider-ship, a transformation of the divine throne. It might have a scary appearance for the spectators but he had used it so many times that it had become his symbol.

It was necessary to also let it fly at a low altitude to warn his hidden enemies that he was back and they shouldn’t try anything funny from now onwards.

Within no time, they reached Fujian Island, where a familiar-looking little girl was waiting for them.

As soon as they stepped on the island, she rushed forward and hugged Mark with all smiles, ”Papa…”

Usually, Mark would either pat her head or brush her off, but this time, Mark put his arms around her and responded with a smile, ”I’m back, Xiao Wei.”

Jingwei raised her head with a look of surprise on her face, as she never had been called that way. As her eyes met Mark’s, her smile widened even further than earlier, ”I missed you a lot, Papa.”

”Haah, if someone would see this, they think that you had a daughter when you were a teenager, Markie,” A cheeky comment came from above. Song Yue was slowly coming down the stairs, carrying her son in her arms. Shang Jiao followed her.

’Ah, it is the scary lady and scary baby,’ Jingwei thought in her head but her wary expression gave away her thoughts.

But then, Mark’s reaction absolutely blew her mind so that she forgot all about her wariness toward the Chaos element.

”She is still the daughter from one of my past lives, my Schatz. Thousands of years passed away and we still met in the end. Isn’t it fate?” Mark replied to her, slightly indicating to the girl that he knew the truth.

As Song Yue was surprised this time, Shang Jiao clapped in realization, ”Ah, that’s right. I remembered the portrait of the Moon Goddess’ mortal husband. You look strikingly identical to each other.”

”Eh?” Song Yue’s surprise turned into shock; she abruptly turned her head to look at her in-law, ”What did you say?”

Mark’s face stiffened this time. He hurriedly spoke before Shang Jiao uttered more things, ”nonsense. Reincarnation doesn’t give you the same appearance, Xiao Jiao. The bloodline will give it. Most probably, both of us are his descendants and that’s probably why she wants to help us out.”

”Ah, is that so? But, I swear she heard addressing you as her dear when she sent me back to the kingdom, yesterday. I thought something might have happened back in the netherworld between you two. Maybe, I misheard it.” Shang Jiao murmured, momentarily falling into her thought.

As Mark was worried about Song Yue’s uncomfortable expression as if she wanted to say when he would stop chasing after beauties, Jingwei came to Mark’s rescue with her comment, ”No, Papa is not Houyi. Papa is Papa’s reincarnation. They have the same souls.”

”Yup, it does look like she could tell because we formed a contract,” Mark confirmed his theory, upon hearing her comment. ”But then again, isn’t it funny that I was such a mythical character in my past life? Nah, the current me would wipe the floor off with him.”
