Chapter 36: Chapter 36: The Silver-Haired Beauty at the Pancake Stall! Are You Sure She’s Here to Sell Pancakes?
It’s 8:15 PM.
Exactly twelve hours since his 8:15 AM class on Duplicate Skill, Lin Tianming finally cooled down and regained his Divine Hand Duplicate Ability.
Now, he could check Chu Yunfei’s Fire Attribute Superpower Skills as they shared the same dorm room and found that he could freely duplicate three skills again.
However, he didn’t duplicate Chu Yunfei’s skills and instead deactivated the ability to scrutinize others’ skills, continuing to lie on his bed. freewēbnoveℓ.com
Originally, he planned to rest well, but at this moment Chu Yunfei suddenly called him to go out and have fun.
"Tianming, how about we take a stroll near the Great Emperor Academy tonight?"
Hearing Chu Yunfei’s suggestion, Lin Tianming pondered for a moment and agreed.
"Sure, we’ve been at the Great Emperor Academy for two days and haven’t wandered off-campus yet. Tonight’s a good time to familiarize ourselves with the surroundings outside school!"
Chu Yunfei eagerly awaited Lin Tianming’s words, excitedly proposing: "Let’s head to the snack street outside the West Gate, I hear it’s bustling with various vendors at night!"
Lin Tianming nodded upon hearing this: "Then let’s check out the snack street outside West Gate tonight."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Tianming jumped off his bed and went out with Chu Yunfei.
It didn’t take long for Lin Tianming and Chu Yunfei to reach the snack street a few streets away from the West Gate.
Just as Chu Yunfei had learned beforehand, the snack street was extremely lively, lined with vendors on both sides selling various snacks.
Although Lin Tianming and Chu Yunfei had already eaten dinner, they were tempted by the fragrant street and bought some snacks to try.
Chu Yunfei was delighted: "These snacks tastes really good, Tianming, no wonder this place is so popular every night!"
While speaking, he continued to stroll and look for more snacks that caught his fancy alongside Lin Tianming.
Lin Tianming, holding a skewer of grilled gluten, also indulged in the joy of eating street food.
Next, Lin Tianming and Chu Yunfei, two grown men, nearly wandered every part of the snack street near West Gate of the Great Emperor Academy.
Unknowingly, the two spent over an hour eating and playing around the street.
Having had his fill of fun, and with Teacher Jiang Han’s lecture scheduled for tomorrow, Lin Tianming decided to head straight back.
"Yunfei, we’ve roamed around the snack street enough, it’s time we head back."
"Ah? It’s just past nine, can’t we hang around till eleven or so? There are still many snacks we haven’t tried yet."
Chu Yunfei was reluctant to leave, wishing to loiter around the snack street for a while longer.
Lin Tianming responded, "Don’t you have a class tomorrow morning? I have a lesson scheduled by Teacher Jiang Han tomorrow morning; I need to go back early to rest."
Reminded by Lin Tianming, Chu Yunfei also remembered he had a morning class.
"I do too, and our male teacher is terribly strict! I even got scolded by him today, I think I better head back early to rest with you!"
As Chu Yunfei mentioned his teacher, he helplessly complained to Lin Tianming about how fierce his teacher was.
Lin Tianming simply smiled, not commenting as he and Chu Yunfei walked back the same way they came.
However, on their way back, Lin Tianming suddenly heard an unfamiliar girl’s voice.
[Tianming? Why is he here tonight...]
[I mustn’t be discovered... I’m already under close surveillance from the Jiuzhou Sect, seeking an opportunity to sneak away and find my destiny. I can’t afford more trouble!]
This is... a matierialex voice?
Temporarily halting, Lin Tianming looked around, trying to locate the source of the inner voice.
However, as he surveyed his surroundings, he didn’t spot the target he was searching for.
[Damn! Why did Tianming suddenly stop and start looking around? He didn’t discover me, did he? Is he deliberately searching for me?]
[No... Impossible! I’m a Reincarnator; how could he possibly find me without memories from his past life!]
[Maybe he’s hungry again... wanting to eat something? Nevermind, I’ll just hide behind this pancake stall Uncle Luke found for me until he leaves; that way I won’t be discovered!]
The mysterious girl’s inner voice suddenly led Lin Tianming to lock onto a deserted pancake stall.
He stood, overlooking the area behind the pancake counter.
Although he couldn’t see clearly what was behind the counter, he could distinctly make out a glimpse of silver hair peeking out.
Recalling what the girl had mentioned about an opportunity, although Lin Tianming didn’t know the specifics, he decided to change his original plan of returning to the Great Emperor Academy so early.
"Yunfei, I just remembered I have something urgent to handle. You go back first; I’ll take care of this emergency!"
With a spontaneously fabricated excuse, Lin Tianming didn’t wait for Chu Yunfei to react and dashed off in another direction.
Watching Lin Tianming’s departing figure, it took Chu Yunfei quite a while to come to his senses.
"This Lin Tianming, could it be that he has made plans to hook up with a girl who likes him? All that talk about having morning classes and needing to return early was just to trick me into going back so he could enjoy a romantic time! Such betrayal of friendship!"
Suspecting Lin Tianming arranged to meet a girlfriend, Chu Yunfei muttered to himself and had no choice but to return alone to the Great Emperor Academy.
Hidden behind the pancake stall was a silver-haired beautiful girl, who Wang Jian would definitely recognize as Alice, the Beiyin Domain first-year student who had fiercely beaten him today.
After seeing both Lin Tianming and Chu Yunfei leave, Alice, who had been crouching, finally felt safe enough to emerge and sit on a stool in front of the pancake stall.
She didn’t know how to make pancakes; her Uncle Luke had arranged for her to be here.
By pretending to be a vendor selling pancakes, she could shake off those from the Jiuzhou Sect sent to surveil her.
"Uncle Luke and his people should have already tricked those who were watching me, but without a message from Uncle Luke, it’s better to stay here a bit longer..."
Muttering to herself, Alice waited here for less than five minutes before she finally received some good news from her Uncle Luke.
"Miss, everything is smooth."
Seeing this text message, Alice’s lips curved into a slight smile.
It was time to set off!
By obtaining the opportunities in the Mechanical Secret Realm so early in this life, she was destined to reclaim her position as the Mechanical Goddess!
No...she would go even further than in her previous life!
As a human Awakener who survived the Age of Gods’ Descent and entered the age when the three Divine Countries descended and became a goddess, she had a very strong desire to grow even more powerful in this life.
While most human Awakeners became gods, they all died during the Age of Gods’ Descent.
However, even though she survived until the era of the three Divine Countries’ descent in her previous life, she still perished at the hands of a Mechanical Ascender god.
If she could grasp the essence of Mechanical Ascension earlier this life, she would definitely change her fate and avenge her previous life’s demise!
With this thought, Alice stood up from her seat.
Just as she was preparing to leave, the very last person she wanted to see at this moment appeared in front of her.
[Tianming! He...he left, didn’t he? How come he’s come back?]
The person Alice least wanted to see was Lin Tianming who had pretended to leave earlier.
Now that he had returned and heard Alice’s inner voice, he confirmed she was indeed the mysterious girl whose thoughts he had overheard.
Her silver hair, beautiful features, and fair skin made this strange beautiful girl like a silver elf in the night.
Lin Tianming knew she was getting ready to leave, but since the System hadn’t triggered any alerts and he didn’t know if they had any grudges, he naturally didn’t want to let her go just yet.
Lowering his head to look at the pancake stall, Lin Tianming showed a polite smile.
"Boss, please give me a mixed-grain pancake!"
Hearing Lin Tianming addressing her as the pancake stall’s boss, Alice, who knew nothing about making pancakes, freaked out.
[Damn you, Tianming!]
[I came to Jiuzhou early just to avoid him entering the Mechanical Secret Realm, I must find a way to divert him, I can’t let him become the biggest obstacle to obtaining the opportunity in the Mechanical Secret Realm again!]
[Tianming, I’m not ready to settle our past life’s accounts yet, you better take the pancake and leave!]
