Weapon seller in the world of magic

Time limit: None.

Reward: Unknown (Depends on the end result)

Mark stared at the holographic screen floating before his eyes and fell into deep thoughts. Meanwhile, the general stayed silent, displaying his patience.

He thought from all angles and in the end, he decided on taking the wish grant scroll that lets him demand anything from the Emperor. But, before taking it, he made sure to confirm that this grant doesn't have an expiry date.

*Ding! You accepted the quest.

"I promise you that your Emperor will meet his grandson at his home for sure." Mark accepted the quest and turned around the vehicle to drive back to the royal palace. General Fan was happy as his mission is accomplished, not knowing that Mark has different plans for Shi En.

Several hours later;

It was around midnight and almost all the royal guests went to sleep. Mark was awake though. He was lying on the bed and staring at the ceiling, thinking of everything happened during the past 24 hours.

"With the attack on the Emperor and killing of the Grand Secretariat, the imperial court would likely assume that it was the work of the mysterious warrior who imprisoned and killed those experts in the Ji palace.

By now, Song Tai should have made his move. However, Feng Wu says there is movement from the enemies. It is as if they have given up on Western Yan.

Nope, if that is the case, there will be a formal letter to Feng Wu. Then, do they think that it is the work of an unknown enemy? Or maybe, they think that they'll have to act carefully and need to gather their troops to launch a full-scale war?

Whatever the case, I have no time to lie down here. Tomorrow morning, I will have to..."

*Knock* knock* knock*

His thoughts were interrupted by the door knocks before it was opened. Mark immediately sat up and get down from the bed in a hurry as there was only one person who would open the door without asking his permission.

Soon, the door was opened and Mark saw three figures in hoods. 

After a while;

Zan Rong was seen wearing the amulet (Eye of Talim) around her neck with Lan Jing placing his hand on her head. Both of them had their eyes closed and Lan Jing was guiding her. As for Mark and Ouyang Zen, they were spectators.

An hour later, Lan Jing finally took off his hand off Zan Rong's head and let her drown in the sea of memories that were hitting her like waves.

Roughly about half a minute later, she opened her eyes widely with a look of shock on her face. 

She looked at Ouyang Zen and spoke to him first, "Your Majesty, I know what my origins were. And sorry for troubling you until now." She formally bowed deeply as she stood up, shocking Ouyang Zen and Lan Jing. In their eyes, she was a silly and clumsy girl who doesn't have the capability to become serious even when someone put a knife at her neck.

She then turned toward Mark and bowed to him too, "Thank you for your help. Without you, I wouldn't be able to remember who I am."

  "No problem. I could do that much for a past acquaintance," replied Mark as he glanced at the notification screen.

*Ding! You completed Emergency Quest, Awaken the memories of Zan Rong. You received a mysterious package as a reward.

A Zan Rong turned toward Lan Jing and Ouyang Zen while thinking that Mark was talking about them, the wise teenage king managed to decipher his words quite quickly and said, "He was talking about you, sister." 

"Eh?" A look of surprise appeared on her face. She turned toward Mark once again. "We know each other? But, I have never seen you in my life."

As Ouyang Zen and Lan Jing looked at each other, wondering whether she really had all of her memories returned to her, Mark then spoke in a language that can't be understood by the people of this world.

  (English) "I know you, Marina Zan. You are a student at JKU and live in the city of Linz. You are then summoned to the Ixitis Empire and become a spirit warrior there before landing into this world."

Zan Rong's eyes widened in shock, "How do you know?" Unknowingly, she too responded in English, probably of the fact that it is her mother tongue.

Mark replied, "(English) if you are interested to know how I could know this language or these details about you, we can talk before lunchtime or you can take your time and come to our store branch at the Lunaris City of Western Moon and meet me there. I also need some answers from you."

Lan Jing and Ouyang Zen, who couldn't understand a thing these two were speaking, couldn't help but look at them in confusion. But then again, it also proved that Mark knew her.

Soon, the three of them left the room and Mark closed the door and quickly opened the inventory to check what kind of treasure he earned.

*Ding! You opened the mysterious package.

*Ding! You received 0.2 free attribute points and a memory storage card.

"A memory card?" Mark couldn't help but look at the details.

"Okay, I guess I misunderstood by its name. Anyways, let's use this attribute. I wonder if it can be used to increase defense to 10 points."

Mark opened the character stats and saw a plus besides every attribute except for luck. "Here we go."

*Ding! The defense attribute has been raised by 0.1 points.

"9.9 points…" Mark's face darkened as he saw the plus sign disappear beside the Defense option. All this time, he wondered if he should train in a traditional manner just like the natives of this world to make a breakthrough into the demigod realm but now he confirmed it.

*Sigh* "Let's just focus on maximizing the stats. We'll think about breakthrough later…"

*Ding! The strength attribute has been raised by 0.1 points.

The next day, the remaining royal guests who stayed for the night also started leaving one after another. Only Mark and his companions stayed behind for the lunch. Princess Shen Ling wanted to stay but the situation at Western Yan required her presence at her home.

At around 10 in the morning, Mark and Song Yue were strolling in the gardens while chatting about each of their past funny incidents.

"Mr. Lu…" A faint voice was heard far away from behind. At first, Mark didn't put his attention but then as he was called once again with the voice getting a little bit louder compared to before, Mark halted his footsteps and turned his head.

"What happ…" Song Yue pause her talk and also followed the suit, spotting a woman scurrying toward them while grabbing her long skirt to not trip and fall down. "Do I need to leave?" She asked.

"Nah," Mark shook his head, "You know the truth already. No need for privacy." He told her to stay, giving her a slight moment of happiness.

After a while, the three of them went for a ride to talk in the vehicle without worrying about someone listening to them.

However, Song Yue had to take the back seat for she was merely a spectator.

"So, what answers do you seek from me?" asked the girl after Mark drove silently for a while and gave her the signal to speak.

"Well, let's start with how you were summoned by the elves."
