Reincarnated as an Energy with a System

Ning and Clara waited for a moment for the beasts and carriage to approach them. They waited and the birds flew right under them, not noticing them at all.

Ning quickly landed on top of the carriage, attaching himself to the hood of the carriage magnetically.

"The birds didn't notice us?" Clara asked.

"I'm hiding both our auras so that nothing can notice us," Ning said. "It's quite the amazing concealment skill I have."

Clara didn't know what to say. "What now?" she asked, ignoring Ning's statements.

"Well, now we wait to be invited," Ning said and knocked on the hood of the carriage loudly. He looked down from the edge and saw a head look up.

Ning waved at him and smiled. It was one of the black-uniformed royal guards from last evening, and he was more than scared to see Ning staring at him.

"Tell the Crown Prince that I want to go in," Ning said. "And tell him that Clara is with me too."

The head that popped out of the window quickly went back in and a few seconds later the Crown Prince looked out with eyes so wide that they nearly popped out.

"You!" he shouted. "What are you doing here? How are you here?"

"Do you want to talk with your head sticking out of the window?" Ning asked. "Or should we come in and talk normally?"

The Crown Prince hesitated for a bit. "Is… Clara with you?" he asked.

Ning nodded.

"Come in," he said.

"Let's go," Ning said. He reached to grab Clara, but before he could do so, she slipped into the shadow underneath her and disappeared.

Ning smiled and directly teleported inside the carriage.

Ning appeared inside before Clara did, who dropped from the shadow on the roof.

Ning quickly moved next to Clara with his back facing her, while he looked at the various weapons that were pointed at him, all from the 6 royal guards.

The Crown prince also stood inside the carriage, but he held no weapons. The two twin princes and princess were at the side, sitting uncomfortably as they both seemed to have been crying for a while now.

"Quite the spacious carriage you have," Ning said. "Did you add some array to increase the space inside of this?"

The carriage was in fact quite large on the inside compared to the outside. It was almost as large as a normal room in a wealthy man's house.

In the center of the carriage was a small casket with a piece of black cloth covering it. It was most definitely the Emperor's corpse.

The weapons were still pointed at him, but Ning ignored those.

"Can we talk?" he asked the Crown Prince.

"What do you want to talk about?" he asked, his eyes constantly moving toward Clara who stood behind Ning.

Ning looked at the Crown Prince and then at Clara. "You can talk with her first if you want. I'm more so interested in talking with those two."

Allen stood up. "What do you want?" he asked.

"Oh…" Ning said, hearing the young man's tone. "You must be angry at me too."

He really didn't like this feeling at all.

"I didn't want to kill your grandfather, to be honest," he said. "I didn't kill him either. I was just going to destroy his Essence instead and call it a day, but she had other plans."

"Also, just so we are clear, your grandfather tried to kill me first," Ning said. "Sorry, not try to. He did kill me. So while you are angry at me, I hope you understand that it was your grandfather that was in the wrong here."

"It doesn't matter," the prince said. "He is still dead, and it's all because of you."

Ning smiled. "Yes, I was the one that brought him to death's door and she was the one that finished him off. Those are facts," he said. "Do you wanna hear another fact? Do you want to hear what your grandfather did to her family?"

The prince hesitated.

"Actually, forget about that," Ning said. "I won't speak ill of a dead man in front of his mourning family. You can learn later if you want. His accomplices in his crime surround you after all."

Ning looked at the 6 guards that stood there with their swords out. He ignored them and turned back to the prince and princess.

"Truth is, I came to say goodbye," he said. "I am leaving this continent and you won't see me for a long time."

Both the prince and princess looked at him with narrowed eyes. "What do you mean?" they asked.

"Nothing," Ning said. "No hidden meanings. I'm going to another continent to continue my adventure. I'm done with Blackhawk Academy, done with Blackhawk Dominion, and am done with the Hunter's Paradise."

"I will be leaving any minute now, and before I do, I wanted to give you two this," he said, tossing two Storage artifacts to the twins. "Make good use of them. The next time I come to meet you, I hope you will have changed your mind about me."

He turned away from them and looked toward the Crown Prince who hadn't said a word to Clara, but continued staring at her, while Clara did the same.

"Are you guys not going to talk?" Ning asked. "It's time for me to leave."

"Let's leave," Clara said.

Ning sighed. "At least tell him what you have decided on. I'm pretty sure the Emperor of the Blackhawk Dominion needs to know that," he said, referring to Damien.

Clara thought for a moment and nodded. "I have decided to take my father's place and become the ruler of the Whiteowl region. If you disagree with this decision come find me in my home," she said and turned to Ning.

"Let's leave."

"There you have it," Ning said. "Whiteowl region now has a new ruler after over 25 years of absence. Dwell on that news if you want to. We'll be leaving now. See you all in the future."

"Goodbye."
