Days became weeks. Just few months left for world championship, Xiao couldn’t still believe it. She wasn’t ready. She knew it. But she’s left with no choice but to go on, otherwise she’d remain worthless and failure in the eyes of many. Truth be told, being an athlete wasn’t her dream. It was just like a responsibility she has to carry on all throughout the generation. Since Tatsunumi family was very known for being athletic; starting from their ancestors down to the newer generation, the family is known for that. The family’s strong-willed mentality and the blood itself is within them, and will be staying there for eternity.
“I don’t know what to do, Mom,” Xiao whispered while watching the ceiling of her room as well as clutching her necklace at the same time laying on her soft-cushioned bed, “I need your guidance.”
Amidst all the scandalous rumours about Xiao, she’s still thank

I’m here!”“Oh Yerin...”“Gosh, girl, why are you so tensed?”“I have to master my lines.”“What about it?”“You don’t have this in your Personal Development class?”“Girl, we have different teachers in that subject.”“Oh well, but we have a class project and we have to perform a play.”“A play?”“Literally a play. And next week will be the day. I still haven’t memorized my lines.”“Oh gosh... you must be really anxious then.”“Yeah, totally.”“Guess, I have to tell you next time.”“Huh? What next time? What are you gonna tell me? Why not tell me now?”“Nah, I don’t want to add more problem.”“Yerin!” she exclaimed, an indication that she

“Take it easy, take it easy, some things inside the boxes are fragile,” I said as soon as the boys helped me in taking out the stuffs that were supposed to make a ‘surprise’. Oh well, I also have to find a spot for them. Gladly, I already talked to one of the coaches in the university which I discussed with him one of my plans. It was really supposed to be surprise, even my arrival at that matter, but I wasn’t able to make it hidden when my sister had actually asked about my whereabouts. So, I got no choice but to reveal the truth that I’ll be visiting her in Japan. But that doesn’t mean, my 'real’ surprise is ruined. It has to succeed, no matter what happens.“Oh, so you need a place to hide all of your stuffs?”“Yes, just for the mean time. After that, I’ll be taking them out. I’m just doing this for my sister. I supposed you already know who I am.”“Well, just by looking

“Oppa!” as soon as I entered the court, my sister ran towards me like a crying child as if she just lost her mother in the middle of nowhere. I laughed at her and as soon as she reached me, she hugged me tightly which I returned the same, “I miss you so much!” she said as she hugged me even tightly.“Then why not come back home?”She grunted, “You know how much I love this place now!”“Yeah I know. But you said you missed me. Don’t you think it’s time to come back home?” I asked, slightly dropping hints.“Nah. I don’t want to,” she looked away, obviously not wanting the discussion.“Yerin! Coach is looking for you!” I heard someone call, and upon looking at the distance, there I saw Ms. Sunaka’s grim smile.“Ah, right, coming!” Yerin faced me once again, “I have to go. You stay here. I’ll be back

Chapter 020“Miss Xiao?” Qin called, making the latter to be awaken from her reverie, “You aren’t touching your food, are you feeling ill, Miss Xiao?” Qin probed as she watched the lady staring blankly at nowhere. Normally, Xiao would respond right away, but sometimes she wouldn’t, and that only means one thing. She’s ought to call her once more, this time it has been effective when Xiao turned to glance at her. She asked her the same question as before to which Xiao had half-heartedly answered with a yes. With a grim smile, Qin just shook her head as she proceeded back to the kitchen to wash the dishes. On the other hand, Xiao went back to staring at the wall blankly. The food was already prepared in front of her but she had no appetite. Thinking back, she seemed to be acting that way for the past two days. It’s like as if the news Mr. Jake had dropped back then has still yet to be processed inside her mind. ‘Cause even u

Chapter 021Skipping her usual crop tops, Xiao decided to change her to-go outfit for today: a cream beige knitted turtle neck body-hugging sweater tucking it in her plain white pencil skirt. As today is a special day where she has to be more formal, she grabbed her dark gray coat as she finished everything with a knee high black socks paired with a pair of midnight black ankle boots. She looked into the mirror as she examined herself. Flashing a smile, she realized the outfit suited her more. She didn’t know she would like this as this might have been the first time she ever tried wearing one. Usually, she would go for crop tops and jeans as her comfortable clothing line, but admittedly, changing some of your habitual things could be a good thing. And this one has been good for a change. Before heading out, she quickly snapped out her black purse that was laying atop on her side table. She looked at the mirror once again before she hung the purse over her right shoulde

Chapter 022Flashing a smile, Xiao entered the hospital as she greeted the guard, nurses and doctors she had met half way through towards the VIP area. After the heartfelt talk she had with Mr. Wilson, she realized she was already late for the scheduled time. Her father clearly told her not to be late, but look at it now, she’s walking nonchalantly as if she’s not running out of time. Who cares anyway, Xiao had thought as she slipped inside the VIP lounge leading to the personalized built-in restaurant. The Tatsunumi family member was the one who built the hospital, including her own attended university. It was personally built according to Xiao’s great grandfather’s taste in interior designs, Tobayashi Tatsunumi, who became a well-known architect during his time. He may be the person behind of those two famous infrastructures, but since one of them was sold to someone after its completion, so the sole owner of Kiyachi University wasn’t

Chapter 023It took about ten minutes for Xiao to return back to her seat. The people were loudly talking to each other as if there’s no tomorrow. Xiao couldn’t even understand the topic. As soon as she was seated, her father greeted her and she just responded the same. Unlike other businessmen, Xiao noticed that her father was the peculiar one as he seemed to be the most matured compare to others who acted so comfortably as if they’re just staying in their homes. When it comes to her father, he’s the complete opposite. He’s such a fine man; as she watched him slicing the steak so delicately. Xiao couldn’t hide her smiles as she stared at him. He was looking down but his eyelashes were still evident. He looked so calm amidst the danger he has been into recently. It’s as if he got no problems running inside his mind. He’s the actual type of a man that Xiao wants. The calm yet serious type. How she wished she could actually find s

Chapter 024“Hoping to see you back in the university!”Those were the last words from Jun before he ran off. They kept ringing in Xiao’s ears, non-stop. She started to think about it over, whether she should go back to the university when the graduation is fast approaching. Her father was never against with her decision when she wanted to be homeschooled and he also never discuss about it furthermore; he just directly asked for the school’s director in charge about that matter and the request was fast approved. But now that she’s thinking about it, she also needs to spend her remaining days in the university and not at home. It would be another humiliation if she’d just attend on the graduation day which can be very embarrassing yet once again.“You think so? Then why the hell this happened?”Xiao was snapped back to reality when she heard someone shout. Her mind processed its voice and she immediately took

Epilogue Xiao’s eyes felt like twirling. She sees nothing but darkness. Her head gone dizzy as she slowly closed her eyes. But before she could even do it, a tantamount light enveloped her surroundings and the next thing she knew, the lightning has became vivid enough to make her cover her face. The light wasn’t simply just a light, it was blinding enough. When she tilted her head to the side, that’s when she realized where the light was coming from. The necklace. Xiao’s eyes widened in shock upon realizing she found her necklace once again. The last time she saw this was when she thought she’ll be already dead. But then, it showed itself this time again. She touched it without hesitation as she felt a tingling sensation which made her body electrified. Something has came inside her body by her own gut feeling, and the next thing she knew, she was already slowly succumbed to unconsciousness as things became dark in an instant. “W-

Chapter 075“The invaders came. They are after you so that they can seize this world. I don’t want that to happen. We have to find a way out.”“But I’ve been here for a long time, why they just come now?”“I don’t have any idea either. Maybe this is Eula’s doing.”Xiao wasn’t able to speak upon the mention of her name. The8 noticed that, but he didn’t further discuss anything about it as they just kept on running. They finally reached the spaceship at the near end.“Is this Cheska?” asked Xiao to which The8 agreed, she smiled as she says, “it’s been a long time.”As soon as they entered the ship, Cheska greeted them with an enthusiastic voice although it is very clear that she was just an AI. They walked towards the center area which then she spotted Asphalt and Code Nine the next time. She called their names enthusiastically as she dropped

Chapter 074“So this is the power of your ultimate creation, Miss Shuan,” Eula whispered as she looked up to the Soulwaker. It was so immense, she knew it was no longer Xiao, but already a whole new and different entity. “So, even up until this point, I gotta work my ass out in order to serve you the best revenge I could get for,” she laughed, “this is hilarious,” she said when she remembered something, “back when I was young, three girls blackmailed me as they were talking about revenge too. And yet, here I am, still alive and breathing perfectly. So, I wonder the same thing. Would Xiao be saved from my revenge too? Would Xiao be able to live a happy life, unlike me, who was all desperate for nothing?!” she shouted, it was evident in her eyes that she was already at her limitation. Her face was so red, as if she’s gonna burst any time from now. She looked up to Xiao once again. She was already awakened. But Eula couldn&rs

Chapter 073Eula’s eyes grew even more confused when Miss Shin didn’t even start talking anything after what she had said. She was once again testing the waters and Eula seemed so bothered with it. She just couldn’t stop thinking about it. As things started encircling inside her mind. What if… she had thought, did she see the whole thing? She asked the most possible question, because if she didn’t, she won’t be saying this otherwise. The little girl who was almost near to tears earlier, looked up to the sophisticated woman whose demeanor seemed so strong. Eula thought that Miss Shin was that type of person. A very complicated, yet powerful woman. She can see it fully that Miss Shin won’t ever needing a man, instead the men will keep longing for her attention. It was kinda funny actually on how certain things appear in most unexpected times. Eula was still young and learning at that time, and just by

Chapter 072Eula’s tears pooled down to her cheeks before she could even realize. That was the time when she realized that something was happening around her. I was in danger, she thought, but was too late to realize. She couldn’t believe herself, as she turned to look at her mother for the last time because she knew this would be their very last moment and that, she won’t be seeing her ever again. Another set of tears rolled down to her chin as she closed her eyes endearingly. That’s when a memory passed through her mind. That’s when she realized that the time she had with her mother, was too little.Eula was an only child. She goes to school all by herself without a companion. Not even her mother, not even her father. The latter left their family since she was born and she had never experienced nor remembered the face of his own father. She would ask her mother about it but either she, won’t be saying anything. It was like
Xiao, the Soulwaker Chapter 071
Chapter 071 As soon as Xiao felt waking up, her body felt numb and she couldn’t properly hear her surroundings. It was as if her hearing went numb too and all she could feel at that moment was pain. When her eyes meet her own self, that’s when she realized that something has gone down right bad. She felt it in every inch of her body. She wasn’t wrong. She was battered when she’s asleep. And for how did it happen, she couldn’t understand either. For all she knew, she went asleep, all was dark, for a fleeting moment. And as soon as she wake up, it felt like it only happened in a short period of time. It was deliberately confusing in her part. Her body feels all the pain and she could see all the bruises she had gone through. All she knew, it was caused by no other but that person. Oh scratch that, she isnʼt a person nor a robot. She’s the epitome of a monster. Xiao was gritting her teeth to the extent and was able to flinch her head upwards when she felt an e

Chapter 070 “Why did you lie to me?” those words rang back to The8’s rings. It kept on going round and round as he couldn’t even brush it away from his mind. He wondered whether it was the Soulwaker who’s asking or not. He didn’t know how to respond because he lied in both parties and so he couldn’t even start a proper apology because he didn’t know where he could feel sorry for. He sighed as he looks at her, “I’m sorry,” he started to say before thinking about the next thing he would say. He stared at her for too long but it seemed like he’s still out of words. He still couldn’t find the proper terms he should be using. So, this is how it feels to be frustrated once again… He had thought upon looking away. I’m happy to feel humane feelings once again but I didn’t want frustration to be the first… “I had to do it to save you...” he finally said. Xiao looked at him for a moment before she had laughed, “Oh really? Just when is the mome

Chapter 069The8’s memories had slowly subsided as Xiao approaches him. She walked slowly towards him without breaking the eye contact. The8 couldn’t stop himself seeing her in resemblance of his Master, as they truly looked like each other. Shuan was once an important part of his life, and now that she’s nowhere to be found, he actually blamed himself for it. Even though he knew that he wasn’t supposed to be blaming himself, but he couldn’t stop to do so, when he knows the real reason why Shuan chose the deadly path instead of letting herself being away from harm. He knows himself that he’s also accountable for whatever’s happening right now. And the fact that he’s also hopeless when it comes to Xiao, he did not know what to do anymore; whether he’s doing the right thing or if he’s only being selfish; he didn’t know how to discern any longer. It seemed like his life choices were being repeated as if it’s

Chapter 068The light went gone as what Xiao noticed when she opened her eyes. But the thing that shocked her the most was, the headquarters was already nowhere to be seen. She noticed that she can see the outside where all robots were gathered and most probably, the headquarters was already caught by fire. She just realized that she ruined the headquarters all by herself. She couldn’t believe what she had done.“Isn’t that the Queen?”“So she was the cause of these? That’s why I had a bad feeling when I felt a sudden earthquake earlier…”“She really did all of that in a short span of time?”“But I couldn’t believe it…”“Why she did that anyway? It was too much, don’t you think so?”“But she should be protecting us, right? Then why…”“She’s doing the different thing.”“This is
