Starry Sky Railway: Twin Origins

Chapter 91 Walter Yang and the Rakshasa

Upon hearing the sound, Walter Young was startled, but quickly came to his senses.

"Ah...sorry, it was just a subconscious reaction..."

As he turned around, about to apologize to the man, a face that felt incredibly familiar came into view.

The moment Walter Young saw the man, his pupils shrank dramatically, and he seemed to be in a state of shock, the words he had prepared stuck in his throat.

In an instant, countless past memories flashed before his eyes like a movie.

"Otto!?"

Upon seeing the person before him, Walter Young couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

He gripped his cane tightly, his face instantly turning extremely solemn, his knuckles turning a faint white from the excessive force.

He instinctively adopted a fighting stance, while taking a step to the right to protect Lin Qiong, Xing, and San Yueqi behind him.

The blond man trembled slightly when he heard Walter Young utter the name "Otto".

But this subtle reaction was quickly masked by his humble attitude.

"Sir, have you mistaken me for someone else?"

The blond man politely asked Walter Young a question, a hint of confusion in his eyes.

"I am merely a merchant traveling here with Brother Danheng and Miss Sushang. You can call me 'Rakshasa'."

“Yeah, yeah.” Li Sushang also stretched out her hand and pointed at Dan Heng, who was confronting the blade, and chimed in, “He and I came here with that taciturn guy over there.”

Upon hearing this, Walter Young remained vigilant.

Although he knew perfectly well that the "Otto" he knew was long gone, and that the blond man in front of him who called himself Rakshasa had no direct connection to him.

But whenever that familiar voice rang out and that similar face came into view, an inexplicable anger would rise in his heart.

"Mr. Walter, what happened?"

Xing's gaze darted back and forth between Walter Yang and Rakshasa; this was the second time she had seen Walter Yang so emotional.

He recalled the first time he saw Lin Qiong's greatsword on the Yalilo-6.

This sparked Xing's intense curiosity; she was particularly eager to know what story lay behind it all.

"Cough cough, it's nothing."

Realizing he had lost his composure in front of his juniors, Walter Young coughed twice and tried to compose himself.

He tried to recall happy things from the past to the present.

But the more he recalled, the tighter he gripped his cane, and a stiff smile appeared on his face.

"I'll go over there and help Danheng."

Walter Young deliberately made an excuse to leave in front of Rakshasa in order to conceal his inner rage.

If he continues to stay here, the zeroth rated power of "Eden's Star" may automatically be released from his control.

"Strange, what's wrong with Uncle Yang?"

March 7 looked on with a face full of confusion as Walter Young walked away.

Walter Jana’s unusual behavior was truly rare in her eyes.

Lin Qiong, who witnessed all of this from the sidelines, was overjoyed.

Originally, he just wanted to call Dan Heng over to see how he would react if he encountered Ren ahead of time.

To his surprise, Dan Heng brought Rakshasa along as well, which saved Lin Qiong a lot of trouble.

He had been planning how to get Rakshasa and Walter Yang to meet.

Even Li Sushang unexpectedly followed.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but turn his gaze to Li Sushang, and a bold idea was born in his mind.

"In that case...maybe it will work!"

Lin Qiong muttered to himself, a meaningful smile playing on his lips, as if he could already foresee the scene when the plan succeeded.

Meanwhile, with the arrival of Walter Yang, Blade, who was confronting Danheng, was put in a disadvantageous position.

"...Kafka, is this part in the script?"

He held the sword in one hand, the tip pointing directly at Danheng and Walter Yang in front of him.

Clearly, this sudden turn of events was completely unexpected.

“Unfortunately, not at all,” Kafka said, shaking her head slightly. “Besides, we don’t have much time left.”

There was a hint of worry in her words, as if she too was troubled by this unexpected turn of events.

"No matter what, we need to get out of here first."

Upon hearing this, Ren gave a brief "hmm" in response, then raised the longsword in his hand and held it close to his left arm.

The icy touch of the sharp sword blade seeped through the sleeve, bringing a chilling sensation.

However, he seemed to have gotten used to this feeling, and his eyes showed no emotion whatsoever.

"Pfft-"

Without the slightest hesitation, Ren swiftly drew his sword, the sharp blade slicing through his arm, blood gushing out like a fountain.

Strangely, the blood did not spill onto the ground as expected, but instead clung tightly to his sword.

As he swung his sword, the blood clinging to it instantly transformed into several strange, bright red sword energies.

"Shuashuashua——"

The twisted sword energy left several eerie, blood-red trails in the air, flying straight towards the location of Dan Heng and Walter Yang.

Upon seeing this, Walter Young frowned slightly, a strange expression appearing on his face.

Although Blade's self-harming attack method made him quite uncomfortable, his physical movements did not stop.

"Boom-"

He quickly raised his cane, lightly tapped the ground, and the cane emitted a dazzling purplish-red light.

As he moved, a miniature black hole rapidly formed in front of him, its immense gravity causing the surrounding space to distort slightly, constantly devouring all light and sound around it.

The sword energy that was unleashed at them was pulled off course by the black hole and was sucked into the black hole, where even light could not escape.

Just then, Kafka and Blade took advantage of the opening created by the attack and quickly reached the edge of the platform that held the Qiong Guan Formation.

"Don't even think about escaping!"

Upon seeing this, Dan Heng immediately realized Kafka and Blade's intentions.

They clearly wanted to use this brief opening to create an opportunity for themselves to escape.

Realizing this, Dan Heng stomped on the ground and his body instantly shot up, charging towards the two like a swift cheetah.

However, just as he was about to touch Kafka and Blade...

Without hesitation, the two leaped from the edge of the platform, plummeting straight into the misty abyss.

"Danfeng—"

At the same time, the sound of blades came from below, echoing in the air above Tabu.

"I'll be waiting for you 'there'!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Kafka and Blade disappeared from Danheng's sight as if swallowed by mist.
