[BL] Debut in Interstellar After Retiring as Grim Reaper-Chapter 100 - 99: Runes

Chapter 99: Runes

After Professor Song arrived, they wasted no time and immediately went inside to study Qin An’s situation. Based on Professor Song’s reaction, it appears that this is also the first time to encounter this strange thing. While they were busy inside, He Li also received the information about the golden sphere.

Unfortunately, aside from it being found hundred years ago from an inhabitant planet, there was no strange information about the sphere. In the past, the researchers also tried to learn about the runes. It’s not just that no one thought it’s also an ancient language but they already scanned every historic language from the Earth but never did they find these strange things.

Seeing that there’s nothing, He Li’s face went black again and felt a headache about this incident. Where can they find information about this?

Before they could, Professor Song suddenly went out.

"Marshal," the Professor called. He Li nodded.

"Professor, do you have any idea what’s going on?"

Professor Song shook his head regretfully. "I’ve also recalled everything about the sphere but I couldn’t find any relationship that could happen to this. However, seeing the runes on the young man’s body... I think it really looks oddly familiar."

Familiar?

Everyone seems to have found a way from his last words.

"Really? Can you remember where it is, Professor?" Ji Wen asked.

"Hmm," Professor Song frowned as if he was thinking hard and stared at the picture of the runes that were once carved on the sphere and the runes on Qin An’s body.

The crowd went silent and everyone stared at the old Professor with hopes for him to remember and fortunately, after a few seconds, Professor Song exclaimed in joy.

"Ah! I remember!"

Everyone’s eyes lit up in hope.

"These runes..." Professor Song taps his hand on the virtual data floating in front of him. "... There seems to be the runes that I’ve seen from Professor Jian."

"???"

Professor Jian? Everyone recalls another old researcher inside their mind. Professor Jian is also a researcher that mainly focuses on ancient Earth. He was fond of researching things on Earth and was also especially interested in the beliefs that the ancient humans believed.

"I’m really sure that these are the runes. Although the runes on Lao Jian’s are somewhat vague, they are almost the same." Professor Song affirmed that he saw similar ones from his old friend.

"Should we also call Professor Jian?" Ji Wen asked the Marshal. He Li didn’t hesitate and nod.

After several minutes, Hong Xinan came back with the professor who looked grumpy.

"Old man! Why did you call me at this hour?! Do you know I’m studying such important things?! You better be sure this is important!" Professor Jian lashes out after seeing Professor Song in front of him. He was very fond of studying and often missed the flow of time. That’s how he devoted himself to learning everything in the past so he was really irritated when someone wanted to interrupt his findings.

Professor Song rolled his eyes. "Look at you, that’s why your disciples are still afraid of you because of your attitude!"

"I don’t care! You better tell me your purposes immediately!"

Ji Wen quickly calmed down the two professors before they truly argued here.

"Professor Jian, Professor Song didn’t mean anything. We also contacted him here because of some special cases. The Marshal itself needs your help at this moment so we are very sorry if we disturb your time." Ji Wen smiled while apologizing and quickly brought the information and the picture of the runes in front of the grumpy Professor JIan.

"Hmp!" The old doctor hmph in annoyance but still adjusted his glasses and stared at what they gave. Everyone was actually not expecting anymore because this is really a strange thing, yet unexpectedly when Professor Jian saw the runes, he was stunned and his eyes went wide in shock.

Everyone became nervous by his reaction. What is it? Does he know something?

Before they could ask, Professor Jian suddenly strode inside the emergency room and went closer to Qin An. Seeing the runes personally, an excited expression appeared on his face and he grinned in astonishment.

"T-This! T-This is what I’m looking for!" Professor Jian almost shoved himself on the glass cover of the medicinal cabin as he stared at the runes on the young man’s body obsessively.

"What are you doing looking like a pervert?" Professor Song couldn’t help but disgustingly said as he looked at this old friend who met an interesting toy.

"Look at the runes!" Professor Jian didn’t even get angry and excitedly point the runes on Qin An’s body. "These are the runes that I’m studying! It’s a very ancient rune!"

"Oh? What about it?" Professor Song came closer too and looked at the runes, feeling somewhat awe at the beautiful and mysterious drawing.

Everyone was also waiting for the Professor to speak but didn’t expect what he would say next.

"This is the rune of the underworld!"

"???!!"

Everyone was stunned again. Underworld? What is the underworld that he talked about? Judging from what he is interested in, is the underworld that he meant is about the ancient belief of humans? That there is an underworld after the death of a person?

The ancient Earth has too many beliefs but they knew that at most those were just part of their culture and history, yet now he’s saying the runes came from the underworld of the dead?

Professor Song also frowned in disbelief. "What are you saying? That is only a part of our history! Even if that will exist, it will only appear on Earth but will be man made!"

Professor Jian snorted angrily. "Hmph! That’s only because you are old-fashioned! The world is so big and everything is still possible and full of wonders! Only you people with such narrow thinking will not think about how mysterious the Earth is! There are many things that all of us didn’t know and just because this is not familiar to you that it can’t be possible!"

Professor Song and even everyone listening to his rumble was speechless because what he said is somehow true. The history of Earth is too deep and many of today’s generation are not sentimental about the first home planet of humans because they were born in this era. Many of them didn’t appreciate what had been part of the history so mostly, it’s just the old guys who are still persisting in studying. Only because some young people were educated from their birth will pursue these things aside from people who are really interested in history.

Due to that, new information from the history of Earth isn’t that too frequent unlike before.

It seems that everyone is just looking forward but never appreciates where they came from.
