2024-10-29 19:42:56Chapter 029
Like what Xiao had expected as soon as she came inside the campus premises, all eyes of people were pointed towards her. They weren’t saying anything, but it was all obvious. If looks could talk, she would know how their minds have been working. But just like what her father had said, she shouldn’t be faltered instead keep her head high. She followed her father’s advice, it somehow made her feel better although deep inside she’s still afraid of criticism; of how people were never tired of pointing out her mistakes but never her good deeds.
She succeeded upon entering her first class, which was General Mathematics, but after finding out that the teacher couldn’t make it, the class was immediately forfeited. Everyone cheered and were delighted to exit the room as soon as possible. Xiao just looked at them walking away, as she remained seated, unable to speak up her thoughts. Pursing her lips, she moved her chair forward as she laid her head down onto the ta

Xiao, the Soulwaker Chapter 030
Chapter 030“As you requested, I already asked Mr. Tatsunumi, and he agreed.”“Really?” Jun’s face lit up as he smiled at Mr. Jake while thanking him multiple of times. He expressed his gratitude overly to the point Mr. Jake has to stop him from talking furthermore.“I did not know you have something for Ms. Tatsunumi. You owe me a story.”“Coach, it’s a long story.”“I don’t care. You have to tell me after Ms. Tatsunumi’s competition. For now I have no time for it, so it has to be after her competition so I can have a peace of mind.”“But coach... I don’t wanna tell you about it...”“I helped you... yet you don’t want to give back? What is this?” he asked incredulously.Jun had laughed at his almost true-to-real reaction. “You got me there.”It’s been a week since the time he has Mr.

Chapter 031“Today is Xiao’s return,” Mr. Jake announced which made Jun smile in delight.“I’ll forever be thankful with you, coach,” he advanced towards him as he hugged his coach tightly.“The whole story. Never forget,” Mr. Jake reminded him with a knowing smile as soon as he told him he’ll get going.“Guess I really can’t run away from this,” Jun replied with a smirking face as he watched Mr. Jake’s retreating back. The older has some work to do while he was on his free time, so it was the best time to call Xiao about her arrival. He was excited to see her again in the campus premises.As fast as a lightning, Jun dialled Xiao’s number as he tapped his fingers on his phone, waiting for the lady to pick up. But his patience was tested when the other line just kept on ringing but no answer had been received. Jun started to etch worry on his face as he re-dialled Xi
Xiao, the Soulwaker Chapter 032
Chapter 032 Xiao woke up in a calmer state as she noticed the throbbing of head had already faded away. She then remembered she was in the infirmary as soon as she moved her eyes around. She didn’t realize she was able to sleep for hours; surely the medicines provided by the nurse offered a great help as felt way better than before. “What are you feeling now? Better?” the nurse greeted her with a smile, which Xiao returned the same. “Yes, thank you so much,” she replied with a genuine gratitude. “Do not pressure nor overwork yourself. It can affect your body tremendously,” the nurse reprimanded, “I have noticed that your body has been weakened due to optimal usage. I think you have been practicing a lot, yet you didn't take proper care alongside getting enough sleep and by eating on time. I am giving you a warning now; you have to change your ways otherwise you won’t be able to perform well during your competition.” “I’ll tak

Chapter 033“Xiao! Wait up!” he called out before he smiled shyly at the nurse, “We’re going, thank you once again,” he said while holding a tight grip on Xiao’s backpack before he finally headed out of the infirmary as he started chasing Xiao who was already in a far distance.When he finally caught up to her pace, which he slightly used up his stamina, he was already catching up his breath.“Xiao, you just left. You didn’t thank Ms. Nurse,” he started to say while walking beside her.“I already did,” she replied without glancing at the lad.“Oh, then why you ignored me back there? You just walked past through me.”“I have to hurry home, what’s the matter?”“Oh, okay, I’m sorry.”“Give me my backpack, Jun,” she suddenly blurted out as she stopped from her tracks, “you don’t have to walk me t

Chapter 034It was Yamato’s blabbering that greeted Xiao as soon as she walked past through the door, making her feel the pain of her head that should have been long gone. He was too nosy for her to take in.“I got a call from your school. We should go to the hospital.”“Dad, there’s no need,” she grunted, “I’m totally okay now.”“Then, I’ll call Mr. Kikuchi for him to come here,” her father’s voice was so adamant.“Dad, don’t bother a busy person!”“What? You need instant consultation, Xiao Lee!” she was taken a back when her father called out her full name. It rarely happens, and if it does, it means he’s truly aggravated. Back then when she’s still young, it would make her knees numb. It has been so long for her to hear him call out her full name once again. It never did happen anymore when her mother had already left th
Xiao, the Soulwaker Chapter 035
Chapter 035The next day, Xiao just found herself being asleep for a long time. She waited last night for Mr. Kikuchi to take his leave as she wanted to talk to her father, but it seems like she has fallen to drowsiness while she was waiting.Today’s a weekend; marking the last three weeks of her high school life. After that, she’s still undecided whether to attend college right away, or to take part of the family’s business for a while. It’s not because she’s afraid, but for her, she’s not yet ready. Aside from that, the business field is just something that’s out of her league. She might as well talk to her father about this matter as time has already come.Xiao removed the blanket sheets away from her body, as she stood up from the bed, taking some few stretching on the go before she went inside the comfort room. She took a brisk shower and readied herself for a quick makeover. She didn’t bother herself anymore
Xiao, the Soulwaker Chapter 036
Chapter 036Orange, pink and purple were mixing its hues across the ethers. It was the sky—breathtakingly beautiful as it is, a picturesque no one could ever bargain with. A smile escaped Xiao’s lips as soon as she witnessed the scene where the sun was slowly hiding beneath the horizons, making its brisk disappearance. The young child couldn’t even take her eyes off from the panorama, as it was constantly devouring her attention away, making her to be captivated with the view immensely. Albeit her young physique, at the age of seven, she was completely beguiled with the scenery to the point she could give many descriptions of it, unlike any other kids that couldn’t.“Xiao!” a voice interrupted her reverie, but she didn’t look at whom it was, as she continued marvelling upon the horizons blasted with vibrant colours as they reflected upon the transparent waters of the ocean. Seemingly enough, she was enthralled to the point she

Chapter 037Mr. Wilson’s mouth dropped as soon as his assumptions were proven when the doctor said it was definitely dissociative amnesia. His mind went lost for a while as the doctor keeps on talking. He couldn’t even catch up to what he was saying as ‘amnesia’ was the only one that registered in his mind.“Don’t worry, we’re trying our best. We also contacted our other psychologists and psychiatrists to study the case further. I’m still not sure about this, but the probability is high for her memories to come back once a trigger could pull off.”Mr. Wilson’s face lit up, “You mean it’s not permanent?”“Not yet confirmed as of now. We’re still conducting further study about it.”“Please, doctor. Do everything to make her memories back. You said a trigger, right? What could that be?” Mr. Wilson asked, almost pleading for information.&

Xiao, the Soulwaker Epilogue
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
Xiao, the Soulwaker Chapter 073
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
Xiao, the Soulwaker Chapter 072
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
Xiao, the Soulwaker Chapter 069
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
Xiao, the Soulwaker Chapter 068
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
