Chapter 4

Robin had surprised all the scholars in the lab by passing the exam with flying colours.

"Now that you have become an official archeologist what is it that you want to do ? " asked professor Clover.

Without any hesitation Robin replied "I want to travel around the world and find all the poneglyphs and tell the whole world about void century"

Although he expected that answer the professor feigned anger and said " You want to what ? You should already know that it's illegal to study about void century. If the world government finds out you will be punished and imprisoned. Do you still want to continue ? "

" I will follow in my mother's footsteps. I will find her in the seas and join her in the quest to uncover all about void century " said Robin with a determined look while exuding confidence.

"Sigh ... follow me " said the professor while leading Robin to the basement of the tree of knowledge. In the basement stood a giant stela, pointed towards it the professor said " This is a poneglyph , as you can see the text on it is written in ancient language that has long since forgotten. Since you have already studied the book that teaches the basics of the language go ahead and try to read it and tell me what it says".

Robin had already started to decipher the text even before the professor had told her to do so. After a few minutes Robin replied " Professor all I could understand was there was a great kingdom during the void century which was very prosperous and people having various powers and different races lived in harmony. It also describes an utopian society where it wasn't survival of the fittest or strong devours the weak but everyone supported each other. It even says that people worked whole heartedly for the people without abusing it. But I couldn't get the name of the kingdom or how the society actually functioned"

Professor was completely stunned by her answer while he did expect her to not be able to read the name of the great kingdom but what he did not expect was Robin being able to interpret what she was able to read to this extent. The speciality of the poneglyphs was that it was able to convey the writer's emotion and intent to the reader. While most were able to just understand that during the void century there was a great kingdom Robin had managed to perceive almost the same amount of information as him. Secretly delighted he asked Robin to return again the next day while neither acknowledging nor denying her answer.

But for Robin a brief moment of excitement and happiness that appeared on the professors face enough to understand that she had interpreted the poneglyph correctly. So without asking anymore questions she left the lab to continue her cultivation.

As currently all her powers were reliant on her Qi she was restricted by her cultivation realm. Although she had already reached the halfway mark compared to her previous life she had just enough Qi go all out for less than 15 minutes.

While cultivating on the stump near the shore she sensed some one with very weak vitality , on opening her eyes she saw giant man floating on rafts approaching the shore

Well that's the last one for today. Yea sorry this chapter is a bit cringy as I failed miserablely trying to describe the poneglyph. Also I will be using my theory to describe what happened during the void century unless of course something major is released in the manga.

Thanks for reading.

Hope you have a great day ahead
