6 The book

One step, two step, three step..

Ye Mu walked in harmony with his heartbeat as his mind flash all the scenes and situations in the book making his step heavier and slower..

Ling Hui, a name for a child that can achieve a greater achievements, he was an abandoned boy yet was named by a passing old man, a child who was used to be trampled, bullied, was given shame and embarrassment, hated and dircriminated by his folks was given a name to encourage him to rise up, achieve new heights, be brave, smart and clever and trample on those who once looked down on him..

From then on the ignorant 4 years old kid learned to pretend, learned to act, learned dirty things to rise up, he was very clever and was then liked, it was smooth sailing until he learned the cleverness wasn't all it takes to rise up..

The 5 years old boy then started to train, he ran as if someone was chasing him, he kicked with his utmost strength, he punched as if angered, he pushed himself up to new heights but then it wasn't enough for he learned his ignorance..

The 6 years old boy began to sneak in schools and learn, he used his sweet mouth to pry, he used violence to those who oppose, learning he thought was fun until he found out the land and sea is so vast who knows who was at the top, as if mocking him,

'You are not the strongest, you are not the smartest, you are not the most knowledgeable, you just wasted your time, you are but a trash who learned to move, '

Thus the 10 years old blackened yet he didn't give up, he pushed himself harder, learned more than ever, travelled by using his efforts, but he was once again pushed back for he doesn't have power

He was tired but he never gave up since this was his only way to live, starting from birth his simple mind was still there, his will power was strong and stubborn so he begged to be taught as such a monster was born..

The 14 years old boy was perfect, he got the most handsome face, the kindest smile, the stable and mature personality, the deep calculations, adore by anyone.. yet no one knew how broken he was inside who always questions himself, is this really right?

The one day in his 15th birthday, as if the gods and devils was laughing and scorning him he arrived in a strange place

Everyone was emotionless, indifferent, crazy, numb and cautious, he arrived in a 'Horror Game' where no one can escape, death will always be with you but blessings are also limited

Midnight after a day he arrived in a place unscientific things always happened, ghosts, zombies, monsters and deadly puzzles was always given

They were given a small important clue and a useless story with missions to complete, he watched as dying and murder happens fast and illogical, solving the truth and surviving was almost the only way to survive

Rewards are given with points but they were limited and valuable it was a survival in a jungle, trust was non-existant

Yet he tried his best, earning records to records, treated like a bug player by the system and a special male God

Slowly but surely he became a God with his teammates as apostles, earning the golden reward no one thought anyone can have..

A ticket back to his home where everything was still normal and will never get in the game but still have powers with restrictions and the secret wish only meant for God's

A happy ending... was it?

Was he really happy?

Can he really get what he want?

What... was his wish?

Ye Mu thought all about it, he imagined the situations where Ling Hui encountered accidents with near death situations, his blue eyes brightened as he got angrier, unknowingly swallowed by the dark road..

"Ah.. " His eyes widened as he saw a 4 years old boy with purple and blue bruises, he also was full of soil and dirt wearing a grey shirt full of holes and a loose pants, so skinny and malnourished it was frightening

He quivered and with sorrowful eyes, using his most gentle expression he asked,

"Are you alright?"

Ye Mu doesn't know that the boy thought he was an angel blessed only for him to give him warmth and care, going inside the darkness instead of the bright light just for him..

'Only his..'

"N-no.. " A childish and pitiful murmur came out of the boy, Ye Mu felt like he was stabbed to pieces and then resolutely carried the smaller boy giving his most harmless and adorable smile to decrease the stiffness of the child not realizing how angelic and beautiful he looked like

He run and arrived at his home where only Zang Qi is cooking lunch as the latter looked in astonishment

"Mumu is that another child, you know you should stop helping anyone who look pitiful and without family, who knows if you were mistaken, in the 2 years it felt like our house became an orphanage's stock market-- wha-?! what happened to that child?"

Ye Mu just ignored the warnings of his chatty nanny, he knows he was reprimanding him because it was dangerous and get the first aid kit that was full since it was just refilled and gently talked to the boy

"Brother, Mumu is going to do a magic, can brother take off his clothes please?" Ye Mu asked in anticipation totally ignoring the noisy Nanny

The boy looked at his angel and was a bit sad and jealous when he heard what the older man in the room said but nevertheless nod's his head

After getting permission he slowly and gently used the alcohol and cotton with swift movement, used antibiotics for the more severe wounds the covered them with cloth bandages the used ointments for the cuts and scars around his body and also told his nanny who already focused know helping me to get a shirt, shorts and brief from his wardrobe.

He went to the restroom and get warm water and a cloth then scrubbed the exposed parts of the boy showing how malnourished he was and also his features that was so handsome for a kid, he also washed the dirty hair into smooth and silky without wetting the wounds, after that he wore a blue shirta and grey shorts that exactly fits

Zang Qi exclaimed and praised, "Hmm, sigh, are all kids this days so handsome, *pouts,"

After all the ruckus they had lunch which was

sweet and sour beef, mapo tofu and a sour soup with milk, Ye Mu drink milk 3 times a day since his height was short he feels indignant..

The boy cried, Ye Mu and Zang Qi don't know what happened though as they tried their best to comfort him

They didn't knows that the boy was so happy, he was treated, given warm clothes and got to eat warm foods that was simply luxury for him, he was even treated kindly and gently, it was so warm he felt like his wish came true..

It was so good he wish to never wake up, whether this is an illusion or a deadly dream..
