Chapter 7 - A Piece of Paper

In front of the cave, a child lay on the ground, and after some time he was woken up by his rumbling stomach.

'Ugh… I'm hungry, and I'm thirsty too.'

Yes, the child is Yin Yu, and now, he's feeling hungry and thirsty at the same time. After looking at his surroundings, Yin Yu realize that he's in front of the cave with one of his hand holding the chain-sickle.

Yin Yu rest for a while, and soon his nose smells the fragrance of food. Smelling the food, Yin Yu start to feels happy and soon get up and ready to go in the direction of the scent.

Yin Yu start to get up while dragging his chain sickle again. Even he knows that he needs this weapon to wander around this place. But he realizes one thing after he starts to drag his chain-sickle.

"Eh, it's not heavy anymore?"

Yeah, unknowingly this weapon is lighter than before even though it's so heavy before, but now it's normal and not too heavy like before, even he can lift it with now.

'Is it because I've become stronger? But...no, how can people become stronger in one day?. But it's not the modern world maybe…, but..?.'

With that Yin Yu start to ponder every kind of possibility yet he can't come to terms with any of it. Yin Yu feel hunger again after thinking for a while. He decides to throw this topic at the back of his mind.

"Food first, food first!. I'll ask mom after I got out of this place."

Yin Yu start to walk to the direction of the smell and soon saw a table full of food not far from him.

'Ah, food! How long I miss to see you!'

Without any pretense, Yin Yu rush to the food like a hungry beast. Just when he was about to reach the food, a barrier lit up and slam him back to the floor.

"WHY'S THERE A BARRIER IN HERE TOO!!!!"

His scream was full of grief and unwillingness, the food is there yet he can't reach it. His hunger needs to be sated, and his thirst needs to be quenched, yet he can't do anything other than looking at the delicious food.

"Is this another type of trial for the great me where I can only see but can't eat!?, this is not a trial! It's torture!. And I've my weapon in my hand right? Didn't I have a weapon in my hand which required to enter the barrier!?."

After sometimes wailing in despair, Yin Yu get up and then he noticed a piece of paper on the table. It should be big enough to be seen, yet the radiant of the dishes conceals it well.

After reading the content of the paper, a dumb look appears on his face while he wants to start cursing once again.

It's written "Eating with a weapon in hand is bad manners! It's alright if the weapon's hidden but it's absolutely a no-no if you have it in the open!."

'I scream all of the injustice because of the barrier that hinders me from getting the food, but unexpectedly I can't get the food because I'm not observant enough!?. Uaaaaa, mom must be watching me, ah, I embarrassed the great me.'

Soon, Yin Yu let go of his weapon, and as expected, he gains entry into the barrier which makes him happy and without any reservation, Yin Yu start to eat and drink every food in the table with high speed.

"Delicious!, Delicious!"

'Ah, it's true that hunger can make any food taste delicious, How can I waste such a delicious food when it's in front of me.'

After eating and drinking almost all food and drink available until his stomach wants to burst, Unexpectedly Yin Yu notice there are also words on the back of the previous paper. Looking at the word makes his faces pale and makes him resolve himself to be more observant in the future.

It's written "Congratulation on passing 1st Trial!. In this 2nd Trial, you will need to survive for a full month in this legacy space. This will be the only food provided which can last you for 7 days if you eat with restraint but It'll not last for long if you decide to eat until you stuff your stomach. You don't need to worry that the foods will go bad because the barrier exists to preserve the food. Note: Good luck Little Yu!, I'll always cheer for you!.

"Mom..."

"YOU SHOULD TELL ME EARLIER!"

' I want to cry!, I truly want to cry!. I need to stay and survive here for a month!? Don't joke with me! What do you think a three years child are!?. In the first place, who's the one that thinks of the trial content! Isn't this trial a bit too harsh for a 3 years old child!?.'

'No!, No!, No!. I the King of Catastrophe shouldn't be such a pessimist!. I think being in a child body have corrupt me from greatness. A small trial to survive in one month? Even if it's one year, I'm sure that I'll clear it regardless. Yeah, that's right! This easy trial can't even lift my shoes how can it makes me despair!?.'

"The path of cultivation into immortal are truly full of hardship, but even so, I'll tread on it without turning back. A king like me will never cower because of one or two challenge!"

While gaining confidence again, Yin Yu start to observe his surrounding now since he has got fooled so many times now.

"There's a forest located in the west, a mountain located in the north, the cave I come from located in the south, sea located in the east and plains located in the centre."

Thinking that he may need to hunt for his food makes him kind of excited too. Soon he saw the paper that trolls him twice already and reread it so he'll not get trolled again.

After reading it all over again, Yin Yu notice one more sentence in the piece of paper and that last sentence in the paper makes him start to doubt his life and wonder if the one written this is the mother he knows.

"Yep, mom's always playful she's my mom alright…."

After thinking for a while, Yin Yu conclude that she's truly his mother, which makes him want to scream after reading it.

It's written "Ah, I forget to mention it but, One of the food is poisoned. If you have eaten the food, you will start to feel pain in your whole body every hour in one month. To cure it, you need to hunt and eat Clearwater Rabbit to cure the poison, Happy Hunting!."

"MOOOOOOOOMMMM!!!!!"
