"Young Master, young mistress, are you both ready?" Ling Qin asked them.
They were waiting near at the front door for where the strength test is taking place.
Ling Lan's lips twitch, Ling Fei chuckled after seeing it. "Granpa Qin, we will be fine. You can chill your nerves, your expression is like expressing that you're the ones is taking the test and we're the one waiting for your results"
Ling Lan seconded. "Yes, grandpa Qin. Does your faith for us is really that low?"
Ling Qin seeing them like that, calm down a bit. "It is not like that. After all, every years there will be kids with outstanding talents and might send some implications for your tests to be disqualified or something."
The twins facepalmed after hearing him.
Ling Lan comforted him. "C'mon, grandpa Qin. It won't be and will never be."
"But... your exams results earlier..." Ling Qin muttered while still can't stop to doubt the twins.
Ling Lan face darkened and Ling Fei whistles innocently.
The sudden flash of the memories of the result of their intelligence test in their minds, pass-by.
There are four parts of enrollment tests: Intelligence, Strength, Stamina and Speed.
The first test was so easy, that can be consider not a real test. All they did was like having an interview, face to face, the kid and the examiner. Then the result is out after 3 to 5 minutes.
Ling Lan scores was 80, and she didn't know what she will do, either she cry or laugh, with her feeling of helplessness, it was still the same as what in the story.
Ling Fei just scored the same score of Ling Lan. After knowing his results, he just scratch his cheeks. But after checking the other kid's result, his face was stoned into a poker face one. Slowly turning to face Ling Lan and they both stared at each other. Only their eyes are communicating.
'What the, big'bro? We already knew that my score was 80 in the story, I can accept mine being the same with it, but... what the hell is yours too!?'
'Maybe... The opposite effect... Of the so called 'butterfly effect'?'
'Big'bro, I might not that smart or intelligent... but you're insulting me now. What do you mean the opposite? Is there a opposite of it in the first place?... Then if it's like that... we were just following the script then?'
'Err... Sorry... I mean, the opposite of 'butterfly effect' is... the 'fate', right?'
'The 'fate'... .... We... ... Why don't we just troll the whole tests so we can break this so called 'fate'? I remembered that the contradiction for it was... having a choices, to take that intended path or lean towards the unknown...'
'... Lil'sis, you're being naughty again... What if we were disqualified? Should I report to mom that you're the mastermind of instigating of trolling the whole school exams then?'
'... Big'bro, yah lov' me, aye?' Ling Lan asked and did a 'beautiful eyes' actions. The blinking eyes rapidly and acting a cute little poor girl.
Ling Fei facepalmed.
On the outside of their perspectives.
They are can't be just ignored by the other kids with their looks. Two faces that very similar, same with having soft-snow skins, same height and have a same long hairs. They noticed that the two kids are staring at each other that long, and suddenly they will saw the one wearing the floral and frilly skirt will act like a poor little cute girl.
This action almost made the whole little boys that looking at her, stunned and blushed without knowing it.
While for the little girls, they were mesmerized by the kid with the same face but instead wearing a jean, they know that he is a 'he', for how he seriously looked, having a cold but warm aura at the same time, at the kid in his front with the same face. They can just see some flowers floating around that boy.
The kids that had been charmed unintentionally by the twins, slowly walking towards them. But these kids stopped at their tracks because they felt a little fear in their hearts after taking their third steps and a sudden drop on the surrounding temperature.
And because they're were mesmerized by the beautiful scenery in their eyes. They saw too how the both kids with similar faces, changed from being warm and looked like a friendly kids into a cold and distance kids.
This changes made the kids' bodies trembled and subconsciously didn't do anything after feeling the twin's searching and checking eyes, stared at them, slowly.
Ling Fei knows that they're just a kids, but he doesn't want to be bothered and disrupted while talking to his sister. And it was the same with Ling Lan.
So they just tone down the cold chilling aura that they're releasing as they didn't want to be that cruel to the kids, and make some unnecessary traumas for them.
Soon, it was Ling Lan turned to take the test.
Ling Qin cheered her. "Young mistress, you can do it!" With a expression of being excited and nervous at the same time.
Ling Lan smiled. "Grandpa Qin, you look so cute~" Then she kissed his cheek. "Don't worry, I will do this..." And went to go inside with skipping steps, but before the door completely closed. She raised her right arm with a fist, look back at Ling Fei and smiled naughtily... Then shouted. "For the horde!~"
*Bang
The door closed and every kids saw Ling Lan do that were speechless. And the silence crawls at the place.
Even Ling Qin was stunned, then he rack his brain for trying to understand a thing or two from what Ling Lan means.
Ling Fei saw Ling Qin pitifully and coughed to get his attention but was unsuccessful. 'Dammit! This little naughty fox!'
He wryly smiles. 'I don't know if this unknown path and against from the story is right... But I'll make sure you can have your own freedom to choose to, since I'm here.'
------------------------
Since the three of them, Lan Loufeng, Ling Lang, and him, Ling Fei. Read the story he got from Sherwin, they already knew the most things that should happened, because it's out of their influence of what they done in this past three years.
And they started to break down this past three years and tried to remembered that everything that happened to them are still according to the story, with a little tweaks here and there.
Ling Lan was confused that, there should be a 'butterfly effect' even though there's Ling Fei in the picture.
Then Ling Fei started to find the clue about this in the memories of knowledge from Sherwin's orb, and it didn't disappointed them.
Ling Fei repeated the knowledge to them. "The 'butterfly effects' only works, if the story which the background, characters, or plots was forcefully changed by a person using transmigration way to go or be sent to that story. And something will watched him/her for 24/7 and be chased by it, once he/she touched the things related to the story. But he/she can live freely if decided to get his ass far away from the story plots. And lastly, it can decide for what it will do, if it realized that the trespasser doesn't know why he is in the story in the first place. It might kill the trespasser or let him/her be to live freely far away from the plot or there's a chance that he/she will be registered if deemed necessary in any kind of emergency situations.
If the person went or sent to that story using reincarnation way, the characters and plots will still go on for what it should be in the story, but can be freely influenced by the reincarnated person that added in the story, hence the butterfly effect won't be trigger and the Story's World Will won't chase your ass to chew upon at. Because the World Will of that said story will register you as one of it's children and won't touch you. Once you were born inside of it's story, no matter what you did, it doesn't care a damn about you anymore.
This 'Story' will be considered independent story if it's the case, just like yours now, and which your sister knows them as 'Fan-fiction' stories.
And that's the reason why the counted known universe was at 1793, too much stories.
This will stop here. If you want to know more about this 'stories' find the hint in this memory orb, a hint that will point you to the next orb."
Lan Loufeng was the happiest of them all. Knowing that, her husband was still alive if nothing influenced his arrival soon, then her family will be complete again. Now, she is crying more that any of the time in her lifetime, and it's the tears of joy.
Ling Lan, knowing the story was hers, she considered it 'hers'. She can accept the 'Ling Lan' to be part of her life in the story but she will be different from the story, that's why her Soulscape was formed like that.
Ling Fei, knowing that he is the added character, he just let it be. Nothing will changed for him after he died and just accept this second life and he will enjoy it to the fullest... this time, really to the fullest...
------------------------
So, in this three years after the twin's 3rd birth day.
Lan Loufeng spoiled them more in their wishes in their bonding time and let them train to their hearts content but still the terms will stand and stay. But because of the story, her mindset was changed. She decided to train a bit, so she can go with her babies' conversations about cultivation and training, even though what she choose in the end was only a movement technique to master, so if there's an emergency and she deemed that she was a burden, she have a ability to escape or not, buy more time. 'And I can use this to tease my husband later after he arrived.' She thought naughtily.
Ling Lan, used the knowledge from the story to her advantage in the Learning Mind-Space. And add for the fact that she can freely train her physical body to the fullest of what she want's it to be, earlier than the story. So the current and near problems that will collide with her was taken care of.
Ling Fei, knowing that there's a dangerous people near at them. He discussed about this with Ling Lan and Lan Loufeng.
They almost took one day to plan things, with Ling Qin and Ling Nanyi for the changes in the household.
Next day after their meeting. Lan Loufeng calls for the household meeting, including every one.
Ling Fei decided to step up first so he can show them earlier his ability to lead the family, even though he is still a toddler.
"Eherm, can I get your attention please? Thank you and for your silence... Now, that since my mother explained to me that we're not related to the Ling Family anymore, yes that Ling Family, we decided to change some rules and systems within this household... Please, silence, thank you... First. I want to introduce myself, soon to be master of this Household, Ling Fei. (because the mother and her children only knows that Ling Xiao will come back soon) With the permission from the current head family, Lan Loufeng, my mother, and planned this things with chamberlain Ling Qin.
First, I want you all to know that starting from now, the kids that can still enroll for the school, are free to enroll this year. The past rules for the loyalist will be abolish and the kids can freely choose what school their desire. Because I believe that kids needs to be given a chance to flap their wings and try their best to soar high in the sky...
Eherm, silence please. I didn't said that we will abandon your kids, I only said that they can have a chance to attend school of their own choices. You all and your kids are still part of this family... Now, the second thing, after finishing their study at school they can choose to be a loyalist of this family or be a free person.
Being a loyalist, you will need to follow some old and new rules inside of this household, and can't never apply for the military system in the nation. You will have a 'voice' inside of this household to give opinions and be part of the meetings in the future. But before you can have a 'voice', there will be a contribution system for that. I will explain them to you later.
Next, being a free person, they can have a choice to or not to join in the military system, it's up to them for what they want to do with their lives. But can't never have a 'voice' inside of this household anymore. They can still send a request and we will help if deemed can be given within the capabilities of the household's power, and this requests will be according to the contribution system too. I will explain this thing too with what I said earlier.
Now, every choices you make that related to the Ling Household, will be personally seen by me for you take an oath, that the only consequence of your actions will only be fault by you and you alone. And that consequence is death.
You can see me as a cruel boy, but it won't happen in the first place because all I want in this family are, care, kindness, trustworthiness and loyal to each other. If you are one of these. What's the problem of the consequence and be killed by it, if you didn't want to breach the oath in the first place, right?
I don't care and don't have a room for those lazy people and traitorous bastards in this household. If you're one of them, you can go now, on this very day, and starting tomorrow if you are still one and didn't escape today. Don't blame me for not warning you."
And released a little bit of killing intent that he calculated for the stronger people in crowd to be warned.
