Eroge: I can Travel To The Ancient World-Chapter 8: Super Eraser! Sage’s Divine Eyes
Chapter 8: Super Eraser! Sage's Divine Eyes
' Hmm, The torchlight turned into an artifact of shining holy light and the chocolate turned into super energy recovery medicine. I still have an eraser, right?' Jia Hao's eyes flashed with a strange light as he thought about the eraser and it appeared in his hands.
Holding the parchment, Jia Hao looked at the eraser and saw it had changed quite a bit. It looked barely an inch long but felt more soft and spongey.
" Miss Yixue, Can you rub this on patriarch Cai's signature?" Jia Hao looked at Cai Yixue and asked.
" Huh? What's that?" Cai Yixue held the eraser as she looked at it curiously.
Meanwhile, Cai Lingzhi and her parents were having a heated debate among themselves.
" Let's just go ahead with our earlier plan! Who can even take on us with our military might?"
" Damn it! Can't you understand? The other family will use this chance to fight back against us. Besides, even if you want to annul the marriage, the Niu Family would probably demand our two Xuan Iron mines and Fragrant Medicine Store."
" Hmph, You think we should just give them just because of their demands?"
" Oh, You don't understand politics at all, do you?"
Meanwhile, Cai Yixue's expression changed as she rubbed the eraser over the signature of his father. " This...This is...impossible..."
Suddenly, she leaned forward and rubbed the eraser on the signature vigorously. Thanks to that movement, Jia Hao could see the deep ravine between her mountains as they jiggled.
" How...How is this possible?" Cai Yixue was stunned as she held the parchment with a dumbfounded face.
Jia Hao walked beside her and looked at the betrothal contract. His eyes brightened when he saw the end results. Taking the contract, Jia Hao cleared his throat and spoke, " Everyone...Please look at this."
" Does this thing help you?"
" Huh?"
" What?"
Cai Yunhai's gaze fell on the contract Jia Hao was showing. Suddenly, his face turned blank as he stared at it. Not only him, but Cai Lingzhi and her mother were also stunned.
Suddenly, like a gust of wind, Cai Yunhai appeared before Jia Hao and snatched the contract, and looked at it thoroughly.
" Oh my! How did this happen?" Cai Yunhai's wife was shocked as she looked at it. " How is it possible to erase the mark of internal qi from a Thousand Year old Peach Paper?"
" Yo-Young Mas- Brother Jia, You really did it!" Cai Lingzhi rushed toward Jia Hao and held his hands. " You helped us once again!"
" Err, Was it that hard to erase the mark?" Jia Hao was a bit surprised as he asked in confusion.
" Well, Brother Jia, it looks like you don't know about it." Cai Lingzhi looked at Jia Hao and shook her head. After that, she explained why the mark of internal qi was so important.
Like everyone's fingerprint, everyone's internal qi was different and recognizable in this world. Since Cai Yunhai signed his signature using his own internal qi, he couldn't deny the content of the contract.
Not to mention, Thousand Year old Peach paper comes from thousand year old peach trees, which was very expensive. And since the quality of the paper is very high, it keeps the mark of internal qi very well.
It's easy to destroy the paper, but removing the mark is extremely hard and even top practitioners couldn't do that.
Yet, Jia Hao's strange item managed to remove the signature imbued with Cai Yunhai's internal qi neatly, as if there wasn't any signature in the first place.
" HAHA! Brat. To think you were hiding such a devious treasure!" Cai Yunhai laughed out loud as he patted Jia Hao's back.
Jia Hao's body shook violently as he stumbled forward. But, he felt he fell on a smooth and fragrant surface.
Cai Lingzhi held Jia Hao before he could fall down. " Father! Didn't I tell you Brother Jia doesn't have any internal energy? Can't you treat him a bit softly?"
" Uhh...Isn't he too weak?" Cai Yunhai grumbled as he looked at Jia Hao. " Li Rou, What do you think?"
" Hmph, Since this problem is solved, we can simply proceed with our old plan." Li Rou, wife of Cai Yunhai spoke in a bright voice. " Jia Hao, is it? Since you helped both our daughters, how should we reward you?"
" Eh? Reward?" Jia Hao was stunned as he didn't expect any rewards. " Aunt Li, It's really nothing. I just happened to have something that could help you in your situation. I don't need any reward."
" Haha, You got a warm heart, Little Jia." Li Rou smiled. " Lingzhi, take him to the guest room and arrange for his accommodation."
" Yes, Mother."
Cai Lingzhi looked at Jia Hao and smiled lightly. " Follow me, Brother Jia. I will take you to your room."
Jia Hao nodded as he followed Cai Lingzhi. As they entered a room, Cai Lingzhi turned around and looked at Jia Hao.
" You are truly a strange and suspicious individual."
" Huh? Is Miss Lingzhi doubting me?"
Jia Hao became wary as he took a step back. After all, he realized a single mistake in this place might get him killed.
" Should I not?" Cai Lingzhi looked at Jia Hao. " After all, Who would appear in the dark forest out of nowhere and produce a thing that can instantly kill dark creatures?"
" A sweet that can instantly recover someone's internal qi, an eraser that can remove a signature imbued with internal qi...You have so many strange treasures."
Jia Hao didn't say anything as he kept looking at Cai Lingzhi with a tense gaze.
" However, You still saved me and helped the Cai Family in the end." Cai Lingzhi spoke in a light voice. " I can't forget this favor, Brother Jia. Not to mention, you are truly a mortal and not faking it."
" So, What does Miss Lingzhi wish to say?" Jia Hao looked at Cai Lingzhi.
" Just don't give me a reason to kill you, that's all." Cai Lingzhi spoke in a light voice. " But, for now, do you need something? Our Cai Family is wealthy, you know?"
Jia Hai realized that Cai Lingzhi wasn't angry with her. But, his appearance was indeed pretty suspicious. And even after having sex, she couldn't trust a stranger like Jia Hao at all.
' Wait, I am here in the ancient world, right? I can probably do that!' An idea struck in Jia Hao's brain as he looked at Cai Lingzhi.
" Miss Cai Lingzhi, Do you have any monster cores? The shobey cores that drop from the corpses of monsters?"
" Ah, Monster cores...Which grade monster cores do you need?" Cai Lingzhi was surprised. " Those things are very precious you know?"
" Just give me whatever you can give to me." Jia Hao smiled lightly. " I am sure my help would be worth some monster cores, right?"
A smile appeared on Cai Lingzhi's face as she turned around. " Don't worry, Brother Jia. I will send them to you soon."
" Sister Lingzhi." Jia Hao suddenly called her. " Will you...Truly forget everything that happened in that cave?"
Cai Lingzhi stopped as she bit her lips. " Well, Brother Jia, if you want me to keep remembering that...You have to be worthy."
As she left, Jia Hao suddenly realized something. ' She is calling me Brother Jia instead of Young Noble Jia, right?'
' Does that mean our relationship is closer now?'
Soon, a servant came and presented Jia Hao with a small pouch. In the pouch, Jia Hao saw three white colored crystals, each as large as a thumb.
Currenly, Jia Hao had gained some master over the Pot of Miracles. With a thought, the ancient pot appeared in his hands.
' Well buddy, Let's see if I can upgrade you with this.' Jia Hao mumbled in his heart and threw the monster cores into the pot.
*BOOM BOOM*
A layer of scrap metal peeled off from the surface of the ancient pot as the various diagrams around it became even clearer.
Suddenly, Jia Hao felt all his strength got sucked dry as his eyelids became heavy. Getting on the bed, he put the Pot of Miracle back inside his body and fell asleep.
[ First layer recovery successful! Sage's Divine Eyes are activated! You have learned Appraisal! Enchantment Function is activated!]
*GASSPP*
Jia Hao gasped for air as he suddenly got out. Looking at his surroundings, he saw he was back in Su Family's villa.
" Ugh Do travelling through space time also burdens my body?" Jia Hao got up and stretched his body. Suddenly, he sniffed something delicious as he walked out of the room.
" Hmm? Hao'er, I guess you woke up from your nap?" Su Yunqi looked at Jia Hao and smiled. " Come, eat something."
" Huh? Aunt Su, How much time passed since I went to sleep?" Jia Hao was surprised.
" Huh? Let me see...Around half an hour?"
Jia Hao's face turned strange. Does that mean time in Tianxiu World flows five times faster than this world?
[ Stir Fried Vegetables with Noodles: Made by Su Yunqi. It can recover fatigue and hunger]
A line of letters appeared above the food, giving Jia Hao a jumpscare.
