Chapter 36: Kokoro no Ishi
Chapter 36: Kokoro no Ishi
But this time due to the merging of the two worlds the special army training camp had become the JSDF HQ, and all the facilities, rooms, and internal designs were exactly the same as the special army training camp of his previous life.
After wandering around to his heart's content, Xin decided to head towards the JSDF research division whose head had specially invited him as a guest, asking for assistance.
JSDF research division, a department which was responsible for a variety of matters related to the Japanese Self Defence Force. After hearing the name some will get the idea that it must be a department filled with geeks, nerds, and scientists who research day and night on software and hardware like a team of coding developers. But this department was more than that.
Software, hardware, weapon designing, chemical weapons, gadgets invention, forensic research, space research all these terms were encapsulated under the term JSDF research division.
And the head of this multipurpose versatile department was. Well, no spoilers about this character.
Xin reached outside of the JSDF research division and had a look at the digital navigation board fixed on the side of the main entrance. Since the research division was the encapsulation of a variety of sub-branches, the navigation board was there to help newbies like Xin to help and find out their destination.
One more thing that Xin observed was the location of the different branches throughout the navigation board. Excluding the forensic department, all the other branches were located deep underground.
"Cool, it was not like this in my previous life!!" Xin exclaimed and started to search for the location of the branch dealing with software and hardware development.
After going through the navigation board for some minutes, Xin finally found the location of two branches that deal with software and hardware.

He wasn't sure where he could find the JSDF research head who had invited him for help and was pondering about it when two figures appeared behind him and called out his name with respect.
"MVIP guest, Mr. Xin!! Cadet Aisen and cadet Hiroshi are at your service, sir!!"
Xin was startled by Aisen and turned around with his ferocious eyes. Both of them felt as if they were staring into the eye of a demon and were unable to move their bodies.
Seeing those two were the cadets from earlier, Xin calmed down and turned his wild ferocious eyes to human-looking normal eyes. Aisen and Hiroshi were still paralyzed in their places. So to make them come to their senses, Xin took his hand between those two and snapped his fingers to make a loud noise near their ears.
"Huh, what? What happened?!" Hiroshi blurted out in a disturbing voice. After snapping out of it he was somewhat feeling disturb and was in no mood to talk with anyone. All he wanted at that time was to go home and watch some moe-moe animes to heal his mind.
Besides him was Aisen. Unlike Hiroshi, he was a strong-minded fella, and he remembered what happened to them some minutes ago.
As mentioned by the caf lady, that Xin will head towards the JSDF research division after having a look at the JSDF HQ, they reported it to Yamamoto and were heading near the entrance of the research division. And to their fortune, they found Xin just near the entrance. Since Xin was an MVIP guest, Aisen thought of greeting him an army way and went beside him to do so.
He was expecting a good praise or a salute in return, but instead Xin got startled from his sudden intervention and showed them something that he had mastered in the world of magic, after experiencing countless missions and battles.
Xiong Yan was the magical term and Eyes of Intimidation was the general term that peoples of the world of magic used for describing that power. This doesn't involve the use of magiculus particles (mana) but rather it uses the user's willpower and mental energy to intimidate the enemies.
Though Xin hadn't inherited any of his past life's magical powers, but his mental energy and his battle experiences were some of the things that he had inherited from his old worlds.
After coming to his senses, Aisen couldn't think of anything properly, and blurted out the thing that he wanted to ask after experiencing Xin's Xiong Yan.
"Mr. Xin, who is your teacher? How did you master Kokoro no Ishi (Will of heart)?!"
Xin ""
Hiroshi ""
For Xin, he had no idea what was Kokoro no Ishi. It was his first time hearing a term like that. Neither in the magical world nor on the magicless earth had he heard of a term like that.
For Hiroshi, he knew some things about that term, but he was astonished and was thinking, 'How come Aisen blurted out his family secret to a stranger like that?'
Xin didn't take much time to respond and replied to his question after probing through his memory.
"No, sorry. It's my first time hearing that term. And for the thing that you experience now, I am really, really sorry about that. I was contemplating something and that loud salute of yours startled me."
Seeing the polite behaviour of Xin towards them and listening to his sincere apologies, both of them became sure that Xin wasn't like the other high-ranking arrogant officers who boast and misuse their powers on others.
Both of them nodded their heads to accept his apologies and informed him that they were sent there by Yamamoto to take care of his necessities, and help him in any way possible.
Xin replied to them with an "Oh~~!!" and asked them where he could find the head of the JSDF research division head.
Hearing the mention of the JSDF research division's head, both of their expressions darkened, and a sudden chilling sensation passed throughout their body.
Observing both of them were keeping quiet, Xin thought they may not know about it and was about to
