The Lord of Reincarnation - Chapter 129: Sword Bearer

Chapter 129: Sword Bearer

“Anomalies, cursed things, sealed things, contained things… these are its different names…”

“Most of the Anomalies are very dangerous and need to be contained and sealed! This is the only thing that can we can do!”

Meili poured a cup of tea and continued.

“Why… seal them?” Hei Jie asked strangely.

“Why?” Meili looked at Heijie strangely: “Because they are dangerous, no matter what form they manifest, they are malicious to humans! In other words, they are the same as the road you encountered. Making corpses kill people crazily!”

“Indeed…”

Hei Jie realized that he had said something wrong.

Because he thought of his notebook, it seemed that nothing bad had ever happened to it, but it had saved his life and was still very useful, so he thought that the anomalies are all like this notebook.

Now it seems that the notebook in my hand is an exception among the anomalies!

But the next question came up: “Why…why do they keep killing people?”

“I don’t know, anyway, it’s not out of resentment, and it has no purpose, anyway, they kill for the sake of killing!” Meili replied.

‘Perhaps, it is actively or passively collecting ‘spirituality’, just like a set ‘program’! Fang Xian added inwardly while listening.

After growing eyes, he can finally feel the movement of the outside world and quickly learn the native language.

“Wait, that road?” Hei Jie asked again, “What exactly is it?”

“Well, the anomalies you encountered were recorded in the file before, code-named ‘no loop’… To solve a weird case, you must find its root. The root of this weird case is that line Road!”

Mei Li said: “It will randomly appear in various parts of the city, disguised as an ordinary street, and when you walk in, it will become a closed loop!”

She picked up a piece of paper on the table: “This is that road, when the prey enters, it rolls up and connects end to end, so you can’t get out no matter how you run… And all the people killed by it will stay on that road forever, becoming a fixed road. The image, or rather, has become its ‘derivative’…”

“But… we escaped.” Hei Jie whispered.

“This is the second characteristic of the Anomalies I want to tell you. Only Anomalies can restrain Anomalies!”

Mei Li smiled: “You hold a weird thing in your hand and used its ability to control the Anomaly! Walked out of No Return Road alive, and saved those three classmates! We call this kind of person who holds Anomalies a sword holder. Of course, you can also call yourself a spiritual master, an exorcist, or a custodian …It all means the same thing anyway.”

“Characteristics?” Hei Jie asked, “What is it?”

“We have concluded the laws of Anomaly, such as the first one, the law of indestructible Anomalies! The second one, only by being an Anomaly can you restrain another Anomaly! There is also a third one, you must pay a ‘price’ to use the items of Anomaly!”

Mei Li’s expression became very serious: “Because only the weird can restrain the weird, so institutions like ours which specialize in handling Anomalies, all train ‘sword holders’… However, some weird items have very horrible backlash, so they can’t be used and can only be sealed. It seems that you are lucky!”

“Sword holders… Is the sword you hold mean double-edged?” Hei Jie murmured and suddenly grabbed his schoolbag tightly.

Something was wrong with his notebook, he knew, and there seemed to be no cost to using it.

Such a weird thing, maybe it will attract people who want to snatch it? Or forcibly expropriate it from him?

He tensed up and stared at Mei Li. Read the most updated version of this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at Novel Multiverse – “NovelMultiverse dot com”

“Are you worried that I will take away your Anomaly? I’m afraid you are thinking too much…” Mei Li seemed to have seen his inner thoughts, 

Shaking his head: “Although some captains will choose to do this, I observe that your condition is very good and your spirit is normal, which means that you can control that Anomaly perfectly, so I chose to absorb you as one of our team members.” Otherwise, why do you think I worked overtime to chat with you for so long and tell you so many things?”

“After joining you, do I have to fight those Anomalies?”

Hei Jie swallowed, “Is it too late for me to quit now? “

”What do you think?” There was a half-smile on Meili’s face.

…

“We hide in the darkness, and we have nothing to do with honor!”

“We swear to protect this world and fight against the Anomalies!”

“We are sword bearers, and one day we will die by the sword!”

…

Mei Li with Hei Jie, began to take their oath.

Afterwards, she smiled and said: “Welcome, Hei Jie, to become a member of our secret agency, well, you can give yourself a code name, and from today onwards, it will replace your name and exist in the file… “

Why is there a need to get a codename?”

Hei Jie asked doubtfully.

“Because some Anomalies are very dangerous, they can curse you if they know your name, so our organization used the ability of another containment object to erase people’s own names, which is also a kind of protection… have you thought about why the name of our organization is a secret agency?”

Meili looked at him and said.

“Okay… I, I’ll be called ‘Crow’.”

Holding his notebook, Hei Jie felt that the world was so dangerous for the first time. 

“Very well, Crow, prepare yourself, and follow me to solve that ‘No End Road’ tomorrow!” Mei Li said with a smile: “By the way, my name Mei Li is also an alias.”

“Why do I feel…you have no one else to use but me…” Hei Jie said with a mournful face, “that was why you arrested me right away?”

“Did you find out? There are too many Anomalies recently, and the sword-bearer died too quickly. There is no way…” Mei Li scratched her head: “If I confiscate your Anomaly and wait until a new ‘qualified person’ appears, I don’t know how long it will take…But the ‘No End Road’ is becoming more active.”

“Hmm, although the death rate of newcomers is very high, and it is a bit miserable for you to face the extremely dangerous ‘No End Road’ when you debut for the first time, but if you think about it carefully, maybe it is also your chance! I remember that there was an A-class sword-bearer who was arrested arbitrarily, just like you, who started working in the most dangerous anomaly without any training, and now he has grown into a big shot in the dark world…” Mei Li comforted him.

“You might as well not have said it…” Hei Jie wept bitterly.

“By the way, you also need to register your Anomaly’s ability, but you don’t have to disclose too much detail…”

“I… I have to write the name of a being with its blood and curse any creature!” Hei Jie thought for a while, hiding some abilities.

“It’s just ordinary……”.

Mei Li’s expression was a little disappointed: “It’s very good at dealing with people, but it’s basically useless against things with roots… Do you think a road, a knife, or a pencil have the concept of ‘blood’? At most, you can deal with some of their ‘Derivatives’…”

Hei Jie suddenly thought of the corpse that he had cursed into bones.
