After Shen Hao had dinner, he was going to bed as usual and was waiting for his leg to completely heal. But there was a problem. Since the blue orb incident, he always felt very tired and weak — even though he didn't do anything. He just read books and used his phone all day in bed. Although he didn't find out the reason, he didn't pay much attention to it. Only three months remained until he could walk again.
He entered his room like usual, but then suddenly...
The same voice of the old man echoed in his head:
"It seems like you are getting better."
Shen Hao was very shocked to hear this voice after so long. He asked,
"Who are you? And why are you after me, old hag!?"
He was frustrated and angry because this voice had been after him, but he was also more surprised and curious. He needed a lot of answers, so he screamed even louder:
"TELL ME WHO YOU ARE!!!???"
"AHHH!
Shut it, mortal brat! I can hear you loud and clear!" the old man snapped.
Shen Hao was shocked — this was the first time the voice answered him directly. He said, filled with curiosity and a bit of fear:
"You… you… you… you answered me!"
"Yes, I did answer you!" he replied instantly, as if he were speaking right inside Shen Hao's mind.
"Who are you, and how can you talk to me like this?" Shen Hao asked.
"Well, it's very complicated for you mortals to understand, but I will try my best."
And then, the same blue light ball emerged from Shen Hao's chest. It took the shape of an old man, about 6 feet tall, with a well-built body — not too skinny, not too fat.
Shen Hao saw this, very surprised and scared. He jumped to the left corner of his room, next to his bed, putting his guard up.
"Wha… What the heck?! Who are you!?
What the fu*k is going on in my life!?"
"Relax, kid. I can't kill you even if I wanted to," the old man said.
"So… so… s-s-so are you the one who's been messing with my head?" Shen Hao asked.
"I would also like to explain everything to you, but you just keep fuking barking like a dog.
If you'd please just shut the fuk up, then I can explain," the old man said in frustration.
"Yeah, yeah, okay. I don't want to argue with you now anyway. I'd also like to be explained," Shen Hao answered.
Both of them relaxed themselves, and then... the story began.
