Become A Human In Another World
ACT 5: Chapter 48 - Truth...
"Don't tell me, right?" asked Liu Xiu in surprise.
But no matter how Liu Xiu denied it, there was only one figure he remained in memory after seeing this all.
A seal, with a blackish color. In addition, there is one more thing that gives a very clear clue.
That's the seal's name, Wrath.
"Does this have anything to do with Kei? Or maybe this seal? Whahuh? I really don't understand!" liu Xiu shouted slightly annoyed.
No, he doesn't understand. He just refused to understand. Because, if he knew this was a seal of his strength, what should he do? Does he have to destroy it? Does he have to do that to get his power back?
Liu Xiu did not want that.
He had already buried it deep, the same as when he changed his name to Liu Xiu. He buried that power with the name Ren Larvest.
And now that he can get his power back?
"That's... That's very, sad you know?" whispered Liu Xiu quietly.
?!!
Suddenly, his [Critical Perception] reads. Immediately, Liu Xiu faced the surroundings, and noticed a green spear coming towards his head, eyeing his life within a few centi!!
Surprised, Liu Xiu jumped quickly, switching positions from where he first stood, avoiding the barrel as far as possible.
But it doesn't stop there. At the place where Liu Xiu was about to land, there was another spear, which was still preparing to welcome him.
Forced, he twisted his body, so that his hands could touch the ground immediately, and with all his strength to donate his body to change direction backwards.
Unfortunately the same thing still happened, making Liu Xiu have to turn backwards many times, to continue avoiding the attacks of green spear attacks that continue to target his life.
"Baggot!!!" Liu Xiu slightly cursed as he still tried hard to jump right and left to save his life.
The room was spacious, but not wide enough to make Liu Xiu move freely.
The diameter of the room was only 20 meters. It was also with a large pillar with pegs in the middle. All of that obviously reduced the place that could make Liu Xiu move freely.
But having trained enough, Liu Xiu managed to dodge all of the spear attacks coming towards him.
Liu Xiu slightly gasped while watching the surroundings, trying to see who had attacked him earlier.
"You're getting faster, aren't you?" a calm voice rang out, and instantly Liu Xiu glared.
A figure of a man with black hair, and a green spear that was in his hand. He floated quietly, descending with a happy smile. The green spear in his hand really looked terrible, like swallowing the person who saw the spear into it. Also, the spear seemed to fuse with its owner.
Liu Xiu was really surprised to see that figure. He was like looking at his former figure, it was just different in some ways.
But there is only one person who fits all those descriptions.
"I thought it was you, Kei." whispered Liu Xiu in a low voice.
The two stared at each other for a while, until finally Kei touched the ground, and slightly twisted the spear, plunging it into the ground.
But after that, Kei did not say anything, just silently while looking at Liu Xiu with a smile on his face.
Feeling it was pointless to continue to keep quiet, Liu Xiu started asking questions.
"alright. I'll ask. Where'sisthis? Why are you here? And also, why did you attack me? Does all of that have anything to do with this necklace and seal?!" liu Xiu shouted with some emotion breaking the silence.
Kei never answered, instead laughed softly while slightly covering his face, looking amused by Liu Xiu's question.
"What's so funny?!" liu Xiu shouted quickly, responding to Kei's laughter.
"No-no. You really don't know? No, you should know, but you refuse to know, right?!" kei replied slightly pressuring Liu Xiu.
"Well, if you insist, I'll tell you. And also, let me answer one by one your questions. I'll answer from the easiest."
"Right, all this has to do with the necklace and seal you have. Of course, after you see both of them you know them yourself, right? I know that Ren Larvest is not a fool." Kei explained with a slight giggle.
Liu Xiu looked a little annoyed, but he just prepared, not interrupting to wait for Kei's next explanation.
"Then, why can I keep this place. Yeah sure, 'cause I kept this seal from getting damaged, didn't I? And that's obviously related to another question, which is why I attacked you. I obviously don't want you to unseal this, so I have to stop you in various ways." Kei continued.
Liu Xiu looked confused by that, trying to ask.
"How could you possibly feel here? Indeed, how spare of you to be here always keep this seal?" liu Xiu asked slightly insinuating.
"Yahh, wait. I haven't answered everything, have I? Listen first and you'll know everything. After all, all these answers are clearly related."
"I'm here because of the seal. In other words, I put my power into this seal, just in case something like this happens. And I didn't expect it to happen this fast." Kei laughed, looking self-deprecating.
"Then, where is this?! Why did you get in here?! That goes for me too!" shouted Liu Xiu.
"Aha ha ha ha! You're really impatient, aren't you? Well, wait till my story is over. I know you really want to know that this is impossible, right?"
Liu Xiu only fell silent while grimacing slightly. At the very least, he knew what he was going to say next, but Liu Xiu was trying not to accept that.
"alright. I won't be telephoning anymore. This is your heart. Or you could say your subconscious. And that's where this seal is installed, which has a clue in your necklace." Kei revealed it straight away.
Soon, Liu Xiu was shocked to hear that.
His heart, a dark black place, was indeed depicting his heart.
The existence of gemstones around this cave were memories, especially memories that Liu Xiu did not want to forget. And knowing that, Liu Xiu glared, recalling what he saw first ahead.
"That means, the blue gem in front?!"
"Yes. It's your memory of your mother's blue pendant. Besides, all the gems here represent some of your other memories." Kei replied calmly.
But Liu Xiu who heard that was not calm, but rather glared. He began to look around, and realized there were some memories he wanted to forget stored in the gemstone.
Especially the gemstones in the room. Liu Xiu knew that there were memories of his mother, his brother, and even his father.
Until he finally looked at the pillar in front of him.
He finally realized that the pillar also looked similar to other gemstones, just different in size.
There was a shadow that appeared inside the jewel on the pillar, just like the other pillars. And little Liu Xiu knew who it was.
"Don't tell me, that pillar?!!" said Liu Xiu trembling, like he could no longer continue.
The clattering sound of the sword rang out, how did he really tremble violently while trying out some possibilities. And before long, the sword he had wasted behind his body fell down, with a clanging sound.
Kei who saw that only smiled bitterly, while slightly shaking his waist.
"really. As you might expect, it's Syila. And everyone around, there was your family, and the people who died when you failed to protect them." Kei's words really made Liu Xiu glare, while pulling his hair.
"No, this is not true." Liu Xiu started shaking his head quickly, not accepting.
"This is right, Liu Xiu."
"No! Nah! This is not true! You tricked me! Damn it!!!"
"More. You know this more than anyone. You really did bring all their deaths as your fault, didn't you? Then why are you saying that this is not true yourself? Quite the contrary, it was you who should have said this was the truth, not me." Kei replied.
Kei's words were like a hard slap to Liu Xiu, who returned him to reality.
