Wen Xishu's words made John start to panic. After a long silence, John asked the initial question again:
"You... Who exactly are you? Can you tell me now?"
Wen Xishu knew this conversation was coming to an end:
"I come from the apocalypse. I'm a player in your game."
This answer surprised John, yet it seemed so reasonable. After Scorpio appeared, it didn't seem strange anymore that players from his game would cross over into his world.
He asked his second question, which was also his final conversation with Wen Xishu:
"Apocalypse... Is it fun?"
"The game 'Apocalypse' is great, but the actual apocalypse is terrible."
John understood. He wanted to say sorry, but he couldn't make a sound. He felt like a child who had done something wrong.
Even though the tragedy hadn't happened yet, he really had accepted that transaction just a short while ago.
The apocalypse would eventually come. At this moment, John suddenly felt scared and wished to cancel the transaction with the gods.
