Chapter 31: Battle Armor garage kit
However, today, something changed. Instead of the blissful nothingness that she was used to, she saw a pair of big bright eyes that were accompanied by the voice of a child.
Nana raised her hand as if something inside her urged her to touch the child’s adorable face.
‘Is this what missing someone feels like? But why would I feel like this towards a child that I haven’t even seen before?’
Nana didn’t understand what’s going on but she couldn’t deny the special connection that she felt towards that child. She doesn’t even feel a tenth of this emotion towards Yun Yan who’d been with her for such a long time, but his child on the other hand, simply held her hair and she was already overwhelmed with the need to embrace him.
‘His name is Lan Xuanyu? Where is he right now?’
Nana closed her eyes and slowly, she started to see a different environment.
Compared to the Academy of Sciences’ building for the family that she lives in, this place doesn’t have as many security measures.
She shifted her eyes and saw the family sports field up ahead as well as the silvery-white hemispherical building that is the Academy of Sciences where she had lived for six years.
‘How can I see all of this so clearly?’
Nana was becoming more confused but very soon, she saw some familiar faces. She recognized some of the scientists that were walking out of the academy.
‘What is happening? Why and how could I see all these things? Who exactly am I? And who is that child? I wonder if I can actually find the location of that child...’
Lan Xuanyu’s family continued their sightseeing. The itinerary that Nan Cheng arranged was quite tight and it has them so busy that it was as if they were looking at flowers on horseback. After going to some key scenic spots in the Heaven Dou City, they proceeded to visit the other cities nearby. That experience allowed them a more in-depth sight of the similarities and the differences between this planet and their own. After all, the vast majority of things were built after the interstellar migration. When Heaven Luo was constructed, it had been based on Heaven Duo’s experiences.
“Time flies when you’re having fun, eh? We’ll be coming home in a day’s time! Did you enjoy this trip, son?” Nan Cheng asked Lan Xuanyu.
“It was fun. Thank you for this, Mommy,” Lan Xuanyu replied with a bright smile. He enjoyed the trip greatly, but most of all, he loved all the new toys in his luggage. His favorite was a garage kit of a tall man wearing gold armor.
Lan Xiao told him that it wasn’t just an ordinary armor, but a Battle Armor called Jin Long Yue Yu that only the especially outstanding Spirit Masters could obtain. This garage kit was even more meaningful because it was the model of one of the strongest Spirit Masters in the history of mankind, Dragon Emperor Douluo.
“Mommy, do you think I’ll have a Battle Armor in the future? What sort of Battle Armor would I have?” Lan Xuanyu asked quite urgently. Ever since he got this garage kit, his interest in this matter skyrocketed.
“Of course! As long as you work hard, you’ll be able to achieve great things!” Lan Xiao told him with an encouraging smile.
“Daddy, Mommy, both of you are Spirit Masters – why aren’t you guys Battle Armor Masters?” Lan Xuanyu asked.
Nan Cheng answering smile was bitter. “It’s not easy to be a Battle Armor Master. It needs an enormous amount of resources. Only Battle Spirit Masters can apply for it and the criteria are very strict. You have to be extremely strong and outstanding in order to become a Battle Armor Master.”
Lan Xuanyu then asked, “What is considered the most outstanding then?”
Nan Cheng pinched his cherub cheeks. “Why, aren’t you a curious little thing? If you want to have a chance at becoming a Battle Armor Master, you must graduate from the elementary academy first and enter Heaven Luo Intermediary Academy.”
“Then I will definitely become a Battle Armor Master!” Lan Xuan said confidently with his chest puffing up.
“Didn’t you say before that you wanted to be a battleship pilot? Changed your mind so soon, huh?” Lan Xiao teased him.
Lan Xuanyu blushed. “I can do both!”
Lan Xiao and Nan Cheng laughed at their son’s adorableness.
“Alright, let’s get on with our final activity, the shopping spree!”
In order to prevent themselves from overspending, Nan Cheng and Lan Xiao agreed to save the shopping part of the trip until the last day.
The Government regulates the pricing everywhere so the costs of goods between all the planets do not vary that much. They could shop to their hearts’ content and not worry about being overcharged.
When they got to Heaven Dou Shopping Mall, which was undoubtedly the largest mall they’ve ever been to, Nan Cheng regretted their decision to leave their shopping until the last day. She could get lost in this mall for days! As a woman, she derives more pleasure in the act of browsing and the shopping process rather than the material things that she would buy.
After selecting a few things for herself, she then proceeded to buy things for her boys – a new outfit for Lan Xuanyu and a pair of shoes for Lan Xiao.
“Hubby, what do you think of this amulet? I heard that it’s the work of the great master of mind control, Qing Guanghan — it can help to keep you attentive at all times. You can bring it with you when you go away and it’ll help with your work. It’s a little expensive but I think it’s worth it,” Nan Cheng said to Lan Xiao as she looked at the pendant carved out of blue crystal.
Lan Xiao looked at her in surprise. “You’re okay with me going away?”
Nan Cheng gave him the side-eye. “Although I can’t bear to let you go, you need to. You’re very capable yet your career is almost at a standstill. Even though you don’t say it, I can sense how unhappy you are with your job. You need a bigger stage. The only thing I ask of you is to come back to us safe.”
Lan Xiao was moved. “How about I just...”
Nan Cheng covered his mouth. “Stop. I know that you want to go. It’s just six months, we’ll be fine. Xuanyu and I will be waiting for you at home.”
Lan Xiao took a deep breath and gave his wife a determined nod. He would make this chance count. He’s not going to let his family down.
Nan Cheng then smiled and said, “Buying that amulet will help ease my mind. Now, Xuanyu, wait here for Mommy, I’ll just... Xuanyu? Wait, where is Xuanyu?”
