8 Future promise
Ning rong rong Pov:
As I tried to find a way to get away from grandpa bone and grandpa sword, I tried to use one of old grandpa bones worm holes. I then sneaked into his room by using a secret tunnel that he told me to never use because of private matters with some women that he met, and I wouldn't want to see them argue. I then finally made it into his bedroom and saw a lady like underwear, I then realized it must be one of those women that he argued with I wonder what they were arguing about. As I went through a different hidden room, I finally saw a 5 feet circular shape that seemed to be churning into the wall. I then went through it without even knowing where it would lead to, the next thing I saw was a dark tree in front of me.
Ning rong rong: Where is this place, huh? I have never been here before maybe grandpa will get worried and try to find me after noticing I am gone, humph, he deserves that since he couldn't get what I wanted for my birthday last month.
I then continued walking through the dark forest and suddenly felt scared since there was a growling sound coming from the bushes near me. Suddenly a tiger shaped creature tried to attack me however it missed me, but it managed to damage my dress. I couldn't complain about it since the creature was trying to attack me again, I then ran the opposite way as fast as I could. As I was running I screamed out trying to find someone who could help me, only to realize that I was alone. As I was running a vine caught my leg and twisted it, I fell and started shouting for my grandfather or anyone to save me.
Ning rong: Help me someone, Grandpa, Daddy help me
I then saw the tiger shaped creature that the tiger shaped creature caught up to me and was slowly approaching me checking to see if I had anything on me that could hurt it. It then realized that I had nothing to protect myself with, it then started walking towards with what seemed to be a smug on it's face. As it was about 10 meters away from me I closed my eyes hoping not to feel anything once it ate me, however instead of a roar I heard a voice in front of me.
Oscar: Don't worry I'm here for you
I then turned to see a child shaped figure that was standing in front of me and protecting me from the creature. He then spoke to me while his back was faced towards me. I then felt comfort from hearing his voice that seemed to comfort me even though we could die the next second. I then asked him a question that was on my mind when I kept on looking at him.
Ning rong: Who are you
Oscar Pov:
Holy crap what are the chances that I just had to meet Ning rong rong today after I was wondering on how to meet her in the future. No wait if I help her here then I could be able to secure my position in her heart and then asking her out in the future might be possible. However, I need to make sure we survive through this or my plans will have been for naught.
Oscar: You run when I tell you to, okay
I said as I asked Siri what creature this is, she then replied to me by showing me it's status.
Siri: Host here is the status of the creature in front of you.
Name: Shadow Liger
Age: 2000 years
Ability: Shadow claw, and poison bite
Special ability: Armoured skin (Activates when it is danger)
Oscar: I want you to paralyse it for as long as you can and give me something that will hide our scent when we try to escape.
Siri: Of course, however it will only be paralysed it for 1 minute, whenever your ready host
Oscar: NOW
I then saw that the Liger was on the ground shaking and looking at us with a frustrated face as it continued struggling to try and get up. I then took this chance to escape with Ning rong rong, I then saw that she had sprained her leg and was unable to run. I acted quickly by carrying her into a princess carry, after all she was to be my future wife not a piece of meat that I could carry on my shoulder. Apparently, she had blushed when I carried her that way, and was unable to look at my face which was still hidden under the cloak. I ran as I pulled a spray can I received from Siri, as I sprayed it while I was running I noticed that it smelled like the forest itself. As I ran for what seemed to be 500 meters away from our previous location, I found a hidden cave that was able to hide us both for the time being. I then asked Siri a few questions in my head.
Oscar: Siri are there any spirit beasts that might harm us in any way nearby?
Siri: There is currently none host
Oscar: Okay then can you transport me and Ning rong rong away from here.
Siri: "Ding", I am sorry to inform you host but a voice message from the author has arrived, would you like me to play it or get to the main point.
Oscar: MAIN POINT
Siri: "…", Allright it says here that that he only sent two words for you.
Oscar: Huh? What are they
Siri: Future promise and you are not allowed to transport yet
Oscar: Really, you're thinking of that right now what if we die
(A.N: Uh No you're not, because how would I be famous if my main character is dead)
Oscar: Okay, but why though?
Siri: To speed up the romance
Oscar: But we're only on the 7th chapter though
Siri: 8 if you count the auxiliary chapter
Oscar: Ok but I will do it my way, not his
Siri: Of course, host
I then checked to see if there were any other spirit beasts that followed us, as I was about to leave ning rong held my hand and was crying. I decided to stay and prepare something to eat while she kept looking at me, I took out the godly cooking set some spices and the chicken that I stored in my storage space. I then started taking the cooking set out of their sets, which looked like an ordinary cooking tools and pot however they emitted a pressure like no other. This scared not only ning rong but also the spirit beasts a mile away from us, I then asked Siri if she could stop it and she did. Then ning rong finally relaxed while cautiously looking around the cave, wondering where that pressure came from.
Meanwhile outside the cave....
Spirit Hall Ruling elder: What was that pressure, is it a new expert that has reached my level or a sprit bone weapon of a 100,000-year-old spirit beast.
Clear sky sect Patriarch: Oh, a new monster has entered the battle field however I cannot pinpoint its location
Sea God Island Pontiff: Hmm who is it that has reached our level of power is it an enemy or an ally, I hope it is the latter.
While Oscar was cooking his simple action has caused the power houses of the world to be threatened by the appearance of the cooking set. However, they are unable to pinpoint his location because of the system, the chicken that Oscar is cooking was almost done. While Ning rong no longer felt scared because of the aroma that was emitted by the chicken that was nearly cooked.
Oscar: Okay it's done enjoy
Ning Rong: Th... thank you
Oscar: Eat
I then wanted to see what ning rong's reaction would be when she ate it, I then noticed that as she tasted the chicken's meat she almost seemed like she was in heaven with her cute face. However, that changed when she suddenly started devouring the rest of her piece like no tomorrow she then finished it and asked for seconds. After she ate 4 servings she was finally full, I didn't think that the shokugeki no soma cooking skills was that that good. Until I tasted what I had just cooked and imagined the food euphoria scene from the series, while chomping on the chicken which seemed like heaven. But I looked weird because of my cloak that made me seem like I was twisting and humping while I was sitting down on the floor.
Ning rong: Bahahaha… you look silly
Oscar: Oh well, I was only expressing my happiness for the taste of this delicacy
Ning rong: But aren't you the one who cooked it though?
Oscar: Well I still got to express it in some way
I said as I was blushing and hiding it under my cloak and looking away to make sure she didn't see my face as well.
Oscar: Kid whats your name
Ning rong: Ning rong rong and what do you mean kid aren't you a kid as well
I then realized that she finally started becoming arrogant, after all she is still a four-year-old and was spoiled. I then stopped talking to her after all I wanted her to stop this childish act of hers, since I myself don't like girls that are spoiled and annoying. So I hope that when I promise to be her husband, she will at least wont end up like her teenage self in the manhua and will act like her adult self. However, I won't reveal myself yet to her since I want her to figure it out in the future and will fall in love with me even more at that time.
Ning rong rong: Hey why aren't you saying anything
Oscar: ….
Ning rong rong: Hey please say something
Oscar: …
Ning rong rong: Okay I am sorry
Oscar: Alright I forgive you, so first things first why were you out here
Ning rong rong: Be...beca... because I was angry at my grandpa for not getting what I wanted for my birthday last month
Oscar: Of course, you were, you know you really need to change this attitude of yours because it's not something most people will like.
Ning rong rong: Humph, why do you care
Oscar: Okay I'm leaving
Ning rong rong: Okay, okay I'll change I'll change
Oscar: That's better
Ning rong rong: Humm meanie
Oscar: Okay second question, do you have any way to contact your people
Ning rong rong: I... I do its in this amulet
Oscar: Then why didn't you do that before
Ning rong rong: Because I was too scared
Oscar: Okay what does it do though
Ning rong rong: It sends these sparks of light across the sky
Oscar: Okay, but not now
Ning rong rong: Why
Oscar: Because it will reveal our location to even more dangerous spirit beasts, so we will do it in the morning try to get some sleep
Ning rong rong: Okay
As I slept I noticed ning rong rong was trying to sleep, however she still was not able to sleep so I had to ask siri to give me a pillow that she could use. 3 hours later she finally started sleeping while holding my hands, I didn't mind it and only slept while keeping an eye out every 10 minutes. 4 hours later I tried waking her up only to see that she was still sleeping I then carried her on my back and made our way through the forest. 30 minutes later we finally made it out which made me suspicious since there were no spirit beast at all when we made it out. I then saw that we were in an open field that seemed endless wondering if it does have an ending.
Oscar: Ning rong rong wake up we're out of the forest
Ning rong rong: Hmmm let me sleep more
Oscar: Okay
Ning rong rong: Hey I still don't know your name
Oscar: You will in the future
Ning rong rong: Will I meet you then
Oscar: Of course
Ning rong rong: You promise
Oscar: I promise
Ning rong rong: Humm
She started dozing off while I took her amulet from her neck and activated the distress signal in it, which sent dozens of fireworks in every directions. 5 minutes later I saw that the fireworks were finished so I put ning rong rong on a blanket from my storage space and the pillow she slept on in the cave.
Oscar: Wow after watching something as beautiful as those fireworks it only pales in comparison to you rong rong.
I then left her a poem that she would read when she wakes up, I then left before any of the members of the seven glazed tile sect came.
5 minutes later…
Ning rong rong Pov:
After I woke up I noticed that I was alone without that boy who helped me besides me, I then started feeling sad again, but I then saw a poem besides me. I then opened it reading the contents inside saying:
Hope is what gives meaning to trust
I hope the memory of me does not turn to dust
I wish that you will keep it sacred like gold
For I will find you again with this promise you and I hold
So, do not despair and distrust
For there will be a future for both of us
In this world strength is judge, jury, and executioner
But I will come for you in the future
Until then wait for me
My Ning rong rong and you will see
I then started crying until 2 minutes later I saw a circular shape in front of me which started churning and turning black. I then saw my grandpa bones who had a worried expression on his face but before he could say anything I jumped into his embrace and cried for about 2 minutes while apologizing to him.
Grandpa B: Are you hurt ning'er
Ning rong rong: No grandpa I'm not hurt
Grandpa B: Good, Good, WHAT ON EARTH WERE YOU THINKING LEAVING THE SEC LIKE THAT DO YOU KNOW HOW WORRIED WE WERE.
Ning rong rong: I am sorry grandpa, I will never do it again
Grandpa B: Ok you better not
I then held my grandfather and was about to walk into the worm hole he made, but then i tugged his robe and told him what i wanted to do.
Ning rong rong: Grandpa
Grandpa B: Yes
Ning rong rong: I want to become a better leader of the seven glazed tile clan
Grandpa B: Huh are you sure
Ning rong rong: Yes
Grandpa B: I guess you've grown huh
Ning rong rong: I guess so
Oscar Pov:
As I was about 500 metres away from ning rong rongs location I decided to let Siri transport me back home. However before i could, one of the most strongest rank 96 titled douluo had appeared before me, Ning rong rongs grandfather Chen xin.
Oscar: OOOHHH SHHIITTT
