4 Daisy the Aurora Fairy!

"Who said that?!" Exclaimed Dai Xingchen after hearing the mysterious voice.

???: "Greetings my lord's chosen. I am the spirit that resides within the primordial pagoda, here to aide and guide you on any form of assistance that you may need."

Hearing the mysterious being's words, Dai Xingchen couldn't help but touch the small birthmark on his chest.

Suddenly Dai Xingchen heard voices coming towards him which interrupted his thoughts.

The Guards: "Hurry I sensed the spirit power fluctuation from that direction!"

Hearing the voice, Dai Xingchen immediately knew who was coming.

Dai Xingchen: "The Guards are coming!"

???: "May I suggest we continue our discussion in the Primordial Pagoda's special realm?"

Dai Xingchen: "Eh? What do you....."

But before he could finish his words, he was suddenly covered in a flash of black light and the next moment Dai Xingchen had already vanished from where he stood.

When the guards arrived and saw Chou Haozhu's current state, they immediately panicked. After all the protection of the nobles children within the garden was their responsibility.

One of the guards then said to his companions in a panicked tone: "Hurry search the area, find out who did this! Inform the guard captain hurry!"

He then turned his head back towards the unconscious Chou Haozhu and sighed as he muttered: "We are definitely gonna be severely punished for this."

..................................................

When Dai Xingchen opened his eyes he found himself at the center of what looked like an extremely large Colosseum surrounded by large towering bronze walls..

Dai Xingchen: "W-Where am I?"

It was at this moment that he suddenly heard a voice from behind him.

???: "Welcome my lord's chosen!"

When Dai Xingchen turned around and saw who it was, he was startled. It turned out to be a fairy! A small palm sized fairy with aurora colored wings.

Dai Xingchen: "You're.... a fairy? Was it you who brought me here?"

The Fairy then said: "That is indeed so my lord's chosen. Allow me to introduce myself once again. I am Daisy the Aurora Fairy Spirit that resides within the primordial pagoda fused with your soul. My duty is simply to aide and guide you on any form of assistance that you may need."

Dai Xingchen: "I see... So um why did you bring me here?... And where exactly are we?"

Daisy: "We are currently inside the special realm within the primordial pagoda. I have brought you here so that we could converse without any interruptions my lord's chosen."

Dai Xingchen: "I remember the Aurora Being that gave me a second life saying that that pagoda was one of the three gifts he had given me. Is that correct?"

Daisy: "That is indeed correct my lord's chosen. Your three gifts have awakened and your destiny will now take a drastic turn!"

Dai Xingchen: "Could you explain a bit more about these three gifts to me? All I remember from what that Aurora Being said was that they were a special physique, a pearl that would grant me knowledge and abilities and finally this pagoda that would guide my destiny and give me a special realm.... which I'm guessing is this place."

Daisy: "Certainly my Lord's Chosen. Let us start with your Super Soldier Physique. Upon awakening this physique you now possess physical abilities similar to that of a certain super soldier."

Dai Xingchen: "I see.... So I'm guessing that that was the reason why I could easily do a quick air somersault despite being only three years old? And as to why I could knockout an ordinary spirit master with a hundred years spirit ring with one kick?"

Daisy: "That is indeed so my lord's chosen. However your super soldier physique isn't so simple either my lord's chosen. Simply put it has the ability to continuously grow stronger and faster as you age. In fact if you managed to find some special treasures, it would even be possible for you to further stimulate the speed of your physique's growth."

Dai Xingchen: "Alright I get it.... so basically my body is far stronger and faster than a normal person's and it can grow even stronger and faster as I get older. Let's move on to the next gift. The primordial pearl was it?"

Daisy nodded and said: "As the Aurora Lord stated the primordial pearl bestows you knowledge and abilities from the fantasy worlds that you had once viewed and read. However as to which abilities and knowledge you obtain are not predetermined nor can they be chosen. Instead the abilities and knowledge it bestows you are all completely random. However.... there might be methods to stimulate the pearl to bestowing you specific abilities and knowledge. As to what those methods are, I'm afraid that even I do not know my lord's chosen."

Hearing her words Dai Xingchen couldn't help but give a forced smile as he thought: "So it's basically like gacha."

Dai Xingchen then said: "So I'm guessing those two techniques that suddenly appeared in my mind were given to me by the primordial pearl?"

Daisy then nodded and said: "That is indeed so my lord's chosen. Currently the primordial pearl has bestowed you three sets of new knowledge."

Hearing this Dai Xingchen was somewhat surprised as he thought: "Three sets?"

After a moment of thought, Dai Xingchen then sat down cross legged on the floor and began to to meditate.

And as Daisy had said Dai Xingchen had indeed detected 3 sets of new information in his mind. The first set was called Kamito Kazehaya's techniques and combat experience. The Second set was called Might Guy's techniques and combat experience. And finally the third set was called The Naruto World's Ninja Tools Forging and Wielding Techniques.

Opening his eyes Dai Xingchen couldn't help but exclaim in shock: "There.... There really is three sets of new knowledge in my mind!"

Seeing that Dai Xingchen had already confirmed the new sets of knowledge in his mind, Daisy decided to start explaining about the primordial pagoda.

Daisy: "As for the primordial pagoda, as you can see it allows you to enter this special realm. You can only stay up to one hour per day here in the special realm. However that is based on the real world's time. And since the time inside this realm is different, the time you can spend within this realm is naturally far more than just an hour."

Dai Xingchen then asked: "So how long can I actually stay in here?"

Daisy: "For now one hour in the real world is equivalent to twenty four hours inside the special realm. What's more is the fact that your body will age based on the real world's time!"

Dai Xingchen then said: "This sounds really convenient. A place where I could get a day's worth of training while actually only having to spend an hour."

After a moment Dai Xingchen then asked: "That reminds me, I remember the aurora being also saying that this primordial pagoda's main purpose is to guide me to a greater destiny. What does that mean exactly?"

Hearing Dai Xingchen's question, Daisy couldn't help but show a sly smile as she said: "Regarding this matter, I believe it would be best for us to wait for the time that you must hunt for your first spirit ring before I start explaining about this my lord's chosen."

Dai Xingchen: "I see.... So what happens now, do you send me back?"

Daisy then said: "I believe it would be unwise to waste your time here in the special realm my lord's chosen. How about spending the remaining time you have here to train a bit and get familiar with your new body and techniques?"

Dai Xingchen thought for a moment then nodded and said: "Yeah that does sound like the best option for now. I don't wanna suddenly knock out another noble's kid by accident cause I couldn't control my strength."

Dai Xingchen then realized something and asked: "By the way what's up with that title you've been calling me? 'My Lord's Chosen' What does that mean? Chosen for what?"

Daisy: "Forgive me my lord's chosen. But I believe that is not a question I am qualified to answer."

Dai Xingchen: "Is that so...."

After talking with Daisy for a few more minutes, Dai Xingchen finally decided to start his training to get a better understanding of his new body and techniques.

Several Hours Later.....

A blur could be seen suddenly rushing towards a training dummy.

Whoosh! Boom!

The training dummy's head could now be seen being sent flying by a strong force.

Dai Xingchen exhaled then smiled as he muttered: "It took awhile but I finally managed to barely execute the first form of the Absolute Blade Arts, Purple Lightning!"

In his hands was an ordinary short iron sword. Both the sword and the dummy were materialized by the special realm and could not be taken out of it.

Dai Xingchen then turned to Daisy and asked: "Hey Daisy is it possible to materialize training dummies that would fight back?"

Daisy then thought for a moment and said: "It should be possible my lord's chosen, however we would first need to gather data on other peoples combat abilities and fighting styles."

Dai Xingchen then said: "I see.... Well then I guess I should try forging for now. After all with this new physique of mine it should be easy to wield a forging hammer."

Daisy: "My lord's chosen please take note that the weapons you forge that were made using the items materialized by the special realm cannot be taken out."

Dai Xingchen: "That's alright, all I really need is the experience of forging weapons. I don't really need any ninja tools right now."

18 Hours Later...

On the floor of the special realm one could see dozens of black kunais and shurikens, as well as over a hundred senbon needles.

At this moment one could see Dai Xingchen sighing in exhaustion, in his hands was a metal sphere with over a dozen kunais welded into it.

Looking at the ninja tool in his hands Dai Xingchen couldn't help but mutter: "I've managed to forge the exploding sphere perfectly but because I do not possess chakra, I couldn't create an explosive tag to attach to it."

Dai Xingchen thought for a moment then sighed again and said: "I guess I'll just have to wait until I awaken my martial soul and gain spirit power, then I'll test if spirit power can act as a substitute for chakra."

Dai Xingchen then stood up and said: "Daisy!"

At that moment the palm sized little fairy Daisy suddenly appeared by his side.

Daisy: "What is it my lord's chosen?"

Dai Xingchen: "I've gotten a good understanding of both my new physique and some of my new techniques now. So I think you should send me back. I need to get a good rest after all of that forging."

Daisy: "Understood my lord's chosen."

After saying that Daisy waved her small hand and with a flash of black light Dai Xingchen vanished from the primordial pagoda's special realm.

..................................................

When Dai Xingchen reappeared he found himself standing on the imperial palace's large garden once again.

It was at that moment that he suddenly heard a voice from behind him.

???: "Who goes there?!"

When Dai Xingchen turned around to see who it was, he found it to be one of the palace guards.

When the Guard saw who he had called out to he was surprised and immediately became respectful.

Guard: "Oh it turned out to be the third prince! Forgive me for my rudeness Your Highness."

Dai Xingchen: "It's okay but um.... What are you doing at the center of the gardens?"

Must know that the center of the imperial palace's gardens was mainly a location for the nobles to rest and relax.

Hearing Dai Xingchen's question the Guard immediately began to explain: "Ah well you see Your Highness, about an hour ago one of the sons of Viscount Chou was suddenly found beaten and unconscious here at the center of the gardens. As such we were instructed by the Guard Captain to scour the area and find the perpetrator."

Dai Xingchen(sweat smile): "Y-You don't say?"

Seeing Dai Xingchen's reaction, the Guard immediately thought that the three year old prince might've gotten frightened by the fact that someone was attacking children here at the imperial gardens and as such tried to reassure him.

The Guard: "Rest assured third prince we will definitely mobilize every man power we have to find the location of the attacker."

Dai Xingchen(sweat smile): "I-I see.... Well seeing as it's unsafe here, I think it would be best for me to return to my room for now."

The Guard: "Yes that would indeed be for the best right now Your Highness. If you wish I could escort you back to your room my third prince."

But before Dai Xingchen could answer him, another voice sounded.

???: "No need, I'll be the one to take him back."

When Dai Xingchen and the Guard turned to see who it was, they immediately saw a bald elderly man walking towards them.

The Guard then quickly bowed and said: " Sees Protector Lao!"

Dai Xingchen smiled: "Grandpa Hei!"

Grandpa Hei's full name is Lao Hei.

Grandpa Hei then smiled and said to the guard: "I'll take care of the third prince from here you can go back to your duties now."

The Guard once again bowed and said: "Understood Protector Lao!"

When the guard left, Grandpa Hei turned to Dai Xingchen, cracked his knuckles and said in a seemingly menacing tone: "Brat you dare sneak out of your room while I was meditating! Do you know it took me almost 2 hours to actually manage to find you!"

In response to Grandpa Hei's words, Dai Xingchen simply gave a shrug and said: "Well.... At least it was good exercise for your old bones right Grandpa Hei."

Grandpa Hei: "You Brat!"

After a moment Grandpa Hei simply gave an exhausted sigh and said: "Anyway it's good that your safe. I was really worried when I heard one of the nobles children was found beaten up in the gardens."

Dai Xingchen then apologized: "I'm sorry I worried you Grandpa Hei."

Grandpa then waved his hand and said: "There's no need to apologize, I'm just relieved you're safe child. Come now, let us return to your room, you have an appointment this afternoon and so you must prepare accordingly. We can't let the guests see you all sweaty like this after all. "

Hearing his words Dai Xingchen couldn't help but ask: "An appointment? With who Grandpa Hei?"

Grandpa Hei smiled mysteriously and said: "You'll find out this afternoon child. Now come let us return to your room and prepare."

..................................................

After an hour of preparation the small Dai Xingchen could now be seen wearing white and red adorned robes fit for a child.

Seeing this Grandpa Hei nodded in satisfaction and said: "Very good."

Dai Xingchen grimaced as he said: "Do I really have to wear this Grandpa Hei?"

Grandpa Hei then said: "Of course, as the third prince of Star Luo you must always look charming and presentable like you do now."

Hearing Grandpa Hei's words Dai Xingchen couldn't help but sigh. Must know that he was used to being a soldier who would get down and dirty as he constantly risked his life on the battlefield, to be forced to dress up like this and act in a manner similar to the other nobles made him feel quite awkward.

It was at this moment that a knock came from the door.

Grandpa Hei: "Come in."

A Maidservant then came in and said: "Forgive me for intruding Your Highness, Protector Lao. But your guests seem to have arrived and are currently resting at the waiting room."

Hearing this Grandpa Hei couldn't help but smile and say: "Oh how perfect, they've arrived just in time."

When the maidservant left, Dai Xingchen approached Grandpa Hei and said: "I think it's about time you told me who exactly we are meeting with Grandpa Hei."

Hearing his tone Grandpa Hei couldn't help but stare at the child who's intelligence was clearly far above that of other children his age and sighed.

Grandpa Hei: "Well I won't hide it from you anymore. Today we are to meet the one you have been promised to."

Dai Xingchen tilted his head in confusion as he muttered: "The one I've been promised to?"

Grandpa Hei: "Yes.... In short.... Your Fiancee."

Hearing Grandpa Hei's words Dai Xingchen's eyes grew wide with shock as he almost lost balance and tripped.

Seeing this Grandpa Hei quickly grabbed his shoulders and said "Careful now child."

Dai Xingchen then stared at Grandpa Hei with eyes still filled with shock as he said: "F-F-F-F-F-F-Fiancee?! Grandpa Hei when did I have a fiancee?! I'm only three years old!"

Grandpa Hei then explained: "Child you are a prince. Others with similar statuses to yours would normally get engaged even before they were born. As such you getting engaged at the age of three is actually quite late."

Dai Xingchen still couldn't calm down: "B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-But who?! I mean.... males from our family usually get engaged to the members of the Zhu family right? From what I've heard the two daughters of the Zhu family Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing have both already been promised to my elder brothers! So how...."

But before he could finish his words he was interrupted by Grandpa Hei: "Yes it is indeed true that the two daughters of the Zhu family's head have been promised to the two princes. However... must know that the Zhu family's head still had a niece born to his younger brother named Zhu Zhuling."

Hearing Grandpa Hei's words, Dai Xingchen's jaw dropped as he thought: "There was still a Zhu Zhuling?!"

Right now Dai Xingchen was feeling quite confused. Must know that he never even had a girlfriend in his previous life and now he finds out that he actually had a fiancee in this life, he was truly perplexed on what to do in this information.

..................................................

Dai Xingchen and Grandpa Hei could now be seen standing in front of a white door, with the latter still constantly checking the former's clothes for any wrinkles.

Dai Xingchen(cold sweat): "Um Grandpa Hei I think we should go inside now. They've been waiting for us for almost ten minutes now."

Grandpa Hei: "Hmph! So what if they wait, they should be thankful that a young miss of their family has been promised to a prince of Star Luo."

After fixing the wrinkles on Dai Xingchen's clothes, Grandpa Hei smiled and said: "Alright, now it's time to go in."

After saying that Grandpa Hei immediately opened the white door and stepped inside the room, with Dai Xingchen quickly following behind him.

When Dai Xingchen entered the room he saw two elderly women, in between them was an adorable little girl with long white hair and crimson colored eyes, in her hands was a stuffed toy of what seemed like a cat with white fur. On her forehead was a white mark that was shaped like a crescent moon.

Seeing her Dai Xingchen thought: "I'm guessing she's Zhu Zhuling."

One of the elderly women then approached Grandpa Hei with a smile and said: "Old Hei it's been awhile."

She then turned to Dai Xingchen and smiled even wider: "So I'm guessing this is the third prince."

Seeing that she noticed him, Dai Xingchen immediately did a respectful bow and said: "Third Prince Dai Xingchen meets seniors!"

The other elderly woman then approached and said with a smile: "So young and already so respectful. As expected of the third prince."

Grandpa Hei then said: "What say we old ones have some tea and reminisce about the old times, so as to let the little ones get acquainted."

Hearing his words the two elderly women looked at each other then nodded.

When Grandpa Hei and the two elderly women went towards the table by the side of the room, Dai Xingchen decided to approach Zhu Zhuling and introduce himself.

Dai Xingchen then introduced himself: "Hello, I'm Dai Xingchen."

Zhu Zhuling simply replied: "I'm Zhu Zhuling."

Dai Xingchen: "Um..."

At this moment Dai Xingchen was completely clueless as to what to say next. Must know that he wasn't really used to talking with little girls in his previous life.

"Ah!" Dai Xingchen then suddenly thought of something. He then took out a piece of candy from his pocket and offered it to Zhu Zhuling.

Dai Xingchen: "Here this is for you."

Zhu Zhuling simply stared at him with an emotionless expression as she asked: "Why are you... giving me this?"

Dai Xingchen gave an embarrassed smile as he tried to explain himself: "Well I kinda don't know what else to say to get better acquainted with you and you seemed kinda down so I thought offering candy would help us get acquainted better... or was that not a good idea hehe?"

Seeing Dai Xingchen's embarrassed smile and hearing his words Zhu Zhuling couldn't help but show a slight smile as she thought that the boy in front her was a bit funny.

She then asked: "You're not ... afraid of me?"

Hearing her words, Dai Xingchen couldn't help but ask in confusion: "Eh? Why would I be afraid of you?"

Zhu Zhuling: "Because of my red eyes and the mark on my forehead. Whenever other kids see it they immediately become afraid of me and runaway."

Dai Xingchen: "Eh? Why would I be afraid of your eyes? I think their beautiful, like garnet gemstones. As for the mark on your forehead it kinda looks like a crescent moon, I don't really know about other people, but I really like looking at the moon it helps me calm down when I'm troubled or sad, so I guess I kinda like it too."

Hearing his words Zhu Zhuling trembled for a moment before she stared at the third prince with wide eyes. It was at this moment that a strong warmth began to enter Zhu Zhuling's heart.

Must know that Zhu Zhuling was truly a poor child. Simply put her Mother died giving birth to her. Due to this her father seemed to blame her for this matter and as such distanced himself from her. What's more she seemed to be born with a very weak constitution which made the Zhu family view her as nothing more but a burden. In fact her being promised to the third prince was basically the Zhu family's way of just getting rid of their 'burden'.

In fact Zhu Zhuling had only ever felt warmth from one place, and that was from her cousin Zhu Zhuqing.

Staring at Dai Xingchen's bright smiling face, Zhu Zhuling couldn't help but think: "It seems I have found.... a new warmth."

It was at this moment that the pair that would later be known throughout Douluo as the Sun and Moon Stellar Duo first met.
