I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot [BL]
8.64 First Blue Star - Imprint of a Phoenix
Almost everyone was busy with their own tasks and training but there was still some commotion taking place in the whole camp especially when some students who were supposed to be ordinary people suddenly awakened one.

Training Open Area
One needs to pass the training ground before someone can reach the location where the second infirmary is. The second and third infirmaries were made for those students who are undergoing training. The Second Infirmary is for the guides and ordinary students while the third infirmary is for the sentinels. These two were separate in case one of the Sentinel fell in mania. These are preparations made for the incoming war.
Prince Regulus Rigel carrying Navi Naja in his embrace walks at the side where the Sentinels are doing some sparing following behind him were Navi Naja's subordinates who failed to escape their responsibilities to serve the Empire.
They were suddenly shocked when they saw the Shi Brother's exchanging some moves with the Tang twins. Though the battle is one-sided seeing two ordinary people sparring with an awakened sentinel left even the First Prince of the Empire dumbfounded.
"Impossible!? How can Shi Wen and Shi Lou's bodies block the attacks of high-ranked sentinels like Tang Yi and Tang San!"
"Aren't they supposed to be ordinary people!? This is not true. I must be seeing things!"
Prince Regulus Rigel and Navi Naja were speechless by such a sight. Clearly, the twin isn't holding back too much of their attacks but the supposed to be ordinary people like the Shi Brothers could somewhat still receive their punches and kicks.
Some senior students were resting near them and overheard what the other Junior students were talking about. Then they can only comment with truths.
"What are you saying? Did you not know that Shi Wen and Shi Lou had successfully awakened as a Sentinel thanks to the help of Young Lord Jin?"

"Haha~ it's amazing right~ Young Lord Jing is not only an SSS ranked Guide which is a pair to Marshal Sirius but also a heavenly defying existence that even goes against the rules of the heavens!"
"With Young Lord Jing and Marshal Sirius, this war would be a sight to see~"
They caused too much commotion and were told to resume their training ahead. Those senior students could only drag their fatigued bodies and once again start running around the training area.
Some soldiers gave the first prince and his little group a criticizing gaze before ignoring them once again. It already reached the ears of the soldiers, how this student called Navi Naja tried to harm their future madam. Most soldiers looking after the training ground were people who serve Marshal Sirius. They never hide the disdain in their eyes even when looking towards the royalty. After all, their Marshal is from a Semi-Royal type of clan. One which is well known for its strength and influence.
The soldier coldly said, "Sentinels would stay here. The guides enter that large tent as the ordinary people head to the warehouse to help. By the way, unless you are someone who possesses military ranking you cannot be excused with military penalties for breaking the rules. Those who are late must run around the training area 100 laps!"
Prince Rigel frowned but still accepted the punishment, "I will accept the punishment after bringing my injured cousin to the infirmary," he said.
The soldier snorted at them and said, "Guides are treated at the Second infirmary thought... I don't know if that one deserves to be treated after trying to harm our future madam. Hmp!"
"YOU!?" yelled Prince Regulus Rigel but t0he soldier ignored him and his resume is work.
"What are you guys doing? If you are done with laps start sparring!" said the soldier to the seniors who were about to finish running around the area.
"Yes Sir!" They collectively shouted even though their tongues were already hanging out their mouths. They were only allowed to drink a few cups of water and return to training.
The royal prince and his little team were ignored as if they didn't exist but Prince Regulus Rigel didn't dare to flip out as the highest power in the area just happened to be Marshal Sirius. Someone who doesn't get along with the royal family.
The Royal Prince can only swallow his anger and said, "You two are guides head to where you are supposed to be."
"F-First Prince We..."
"The Marshal and Generals had already seen your faces. Do you think you can still escape from this responsibility?" asked Prince Regulus Rigel, his voice turning chilly when he said this.
The two guides could only look at each other and give up since their golden thigh (Navi Naja) had become useless; they could only do what they were supposed to do. They walk towards the training area for guides and do their duties.
The Royal Prince carrying his injured cousin could only bring Navi Naja to the infirmary before he went to the grounds and accepted his penalty. This punishment is something he had been given thanks to him spoiling Navi Naja and embarrassing himself in front of his Imperial uncle. He could only blame Navi Naja in his heart.
Navi Naja felt the changes in his cousin brother's care towards him. There is a bit of a distant feeling he could sense between the two of them. It was awkward and made him remain silent. He could still recall the murderous gaze the marshal had given him before he was kicked in the face then got angry when he remembered how Feng Jing smiled at him.
'I knew it. It was on purpose!? He made me pull him off the Marshal, so the Marshal will get angry at me! That fucking bitch!' Thoughts of Navi Naja.
While still thinking about the event that took place before he ended up like this, Prince Rigel and Navi Naja finally reached the second infirmary. As soon as the doctor on duty saw them his expression turned a bit unfriendly.
The doctor said, "You can place him in the healing pod. I'm still busy. You can leave him there and return to your training. The war this time is said to be bigger than before. Anyone useless would just die~"
The Royal Prince and Navi Naja's face turned dark. They felt that the doctor was indirectly calling them dead weights who would die instantly during the war. But experiencing the military influence above the royalty in this place, Prince Rigel chooses to stay silent. On the other hand, Navi Naja couldn't even retort back as half of his face is still swelling and it's very painful for him to move his mouth.
Once Navi Naja was placed in one of the healing pods, Prince Regulus Rigel had taken his leave. He must join the training with everyone else or his imperial uncle would give him a much worse punishment if he saw him slacking.

Night Falls.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFirst Infirmary.
Feng Jing had slept for half a day when he opened his eyes and saw that he was still at the infirmary where his big sister Seren had brought him. It took a while for him to return to normal as he needed to repair his body so he could use more of his cultivation despite the body, not a transcendent one. When he lost himself to anger in that Zerg Mansion, he had overused his qi and his body could almost not hold on. Plus, he received a permanent mark during those times, it is not weird his vessel almost broke.
Looking around the room, Feng Jing noticed that someone was sitting on the edge of his bed. Leaning his wide back on the bed's headboard with his arms crossed together and seeing his eyes close, this man is definitely sleeping. It was Marshal Sirius who was waiting for him to wake up.
Feng Jing silently watches the sleeping man beside him.
"The you in this world is more stubborn than when you have your real memories. You even dare to put yourself in danger and refuse to tell me about it," murmured Feng Jing as he reached out his hand and carefully approached the man.
He landed a kiss under Altair Sirius's left eyes and black snowflakes suddenly appeared. This is an insignia they both share for completing the mateship ceremony from the other world. It allows a fated pair to share both their abilities. But Feng Jing still didn't feel this was enough, so he membered that his current vessel had the bloodline of the Phoenix. The familiar line of Life after death.
A phoenix is able to be reborn after dying. This is the most special skill his bloodline possessed. Feng Jing knew too well that they had too many enemies secretly hiding in this world. That Siren King is one but there must be more. Feng Jing sat on the Marshal's lap and stuck their foreheads together. Suddenly three small crimson feathers appeared on Feng Jing's forehead glowing red without anyone knowing what it was. Only someone who is close to the Feng Clan knew what it was. It was their three special lifelines. A descendant of Feng is able to be reborn three times in each lifetime.
Energy made from the blood essence of Feng Jing's vessel itself was being pulled out of his body. His face and body started to get covered in a cold sweat but he didn't separate his forehead from the other. Until another imprint appeared on the Marshal's forehead, it was two small crimson feathers. The last one remained on Feng Jing, it is not that he left it intentionally but that the last feather is not willing to be moved even under his control.
Looking at the two crimson feathers on his husband's forehead Feng Jing showed a satisfied smile and gave it a fleeting kiss. The insignia and imprints all disappeared after Feng Jing stopped activating it.
"With this, I would no longer need to worry too much even if you are a bit away from me. I have given you two chances in life, you better not waste it, my love,~" mumbled Feng Jing as he once again felt a bit sleepy.
Passing his blood essence to another person is indeed very tiring, Feng Jing couldn't stop his eyes from closing as he landed his head on the Marshal's chest. The latter's rhythmic heartbeats turn into a lullaby to give him a peaceful night.
It was already dinner time when the Marshal woke up. He was startled when he saw Feng Jing sitting on him and sleeping. Their posture looks like the young men straddling on him while his arms were left in between preventing the other to hug him properly.
"Jing'er?" he lightly calls but the latter only replies with calm breathing.
The Marshal carefully moved his arms as he closely pulled his love towards him. He carried him horizontally after covering him with a blanket. Then he returned to his ship to take the night off. He didn't even notice the blinking insignia's on his face and forehead.
A snowflake and phoenix feathers. Both are blessings of protection to keep him safe from any harm.
