"what happened?"
Fan Lin asked to the person who was just a centimetre from his face again.
"Uwaaah, how come you can wake up suddenly without any signs?"
The same reaction as last time.
Fan Lin looked at the Heavenly Snow Woman Huo Yun.
"What are you staring at me for?"
She asked him.
"Do you need something from me? Why do you keep staring at me when I sleep?"
Fan Lin asked the question that he wanted to ask for the past few days.
It has been several days since he delivered the tesseract cube to the Octopus King. Fan Lin was still continuing his everyday life of sleeping or walking around.
For the past days, there was something that was bugging him. Heavenly Snow Woman Huo Yun had been keeping watch over him while he slept everyday.
He had already told them that there was no need but she still insisted on doing it. It was making him feel weird. Enough that he was not able to sleep properly.
He started dreaming about this world due to him not able to sleep well. He didn't want to remember those days when he had to eat berries and other stuff to fill his belly.
He didn't want to remember the pain and sufferings that he got while training but he kept dreaming about it in the past two days.
Now he had enough and wanted to confront her about this.
"I don't need something from you. I just felt intrigued by why is it that there are no laws around your body? It's like they are afraid of you and are hiding."
She told Fan Lin.
"That's because the Planar Ruler put a seal on me. That is also the reason why I am still a Soul Douluo. I would have reached Limit Douluo a long time ago. Maybe even have ascended and done with my work."
Fan Lin explained his situation to her.
"Why do you want to become a Limit Douluo so bad? You are far stronger that the Limit Douluos that I faced in the past. Far stronger. Then why?"
She asked back.
"I want to ascend to Godhood and then create a Divine Realm of my own and then take all the soul beasts in it while allowing the soul beasts the chance to ascend to Godhood on their own as well."
"After that, to retire and live quietly. I want to let the soul beasts prosper and flourish while having the freedom that they once had. They can roam in their areas, live without the fear of humans. I want them to give a life where they and only, they can decide whether they want to live or not."
"I want to recreate the Star Dou forest that existed 100,000 years old. Extreme North and Vast Ocean too. They will be able to enjoy the life and the law of the jungle will happen. The strong will eat the weak and one day he will die and becomes the nourishment of the weak. Sounds weird but that's because you don't know it. I will show it you when I become a God."
Fan Lin replied to her.
"That's a really grand plan you have there. You must have been a really strong soul beast before you reincarnated as a human huh."
She replied to him.
"I am not a soul beast. I am a human. Always was and will be."
Fan Lin said to her as if it was natural.
"Eh!? Why are you doing this if you are a human then!?"
She was shocked by his sentence.
"Why can't I? I am doing it because I want to. My father was a forest guard and so am I. We have vowed to protect the forest from humans that wanted to illegally take something from it."
Fan Lin said. His voice a little deeper.
"Huh, what are you talking about? If you guys were really forest guards as you proclaim, then where were you guys when the humans were destroying the environment and soul beasts were killed and captured like rats. Where were you?"
She said a little agitated.
"Women, even if you were to add the age of my father and I together, it won't pass above 100 years old. Those things had happened thousands of years ago. Humans barely live more than hundred years old and that's the fortunate ones. We are not like soul beasts."
Fan Lin said helplessly.
Huo Yun didn't say anything for a few minutes.
"Why didn't I hear about you guys in the past years then? Where were you then?"
She replied after a few minutes of silence.
"My father was a normal person. I on the other hand am quite famous. You can see my posters everywhere. Everyone knows me. Many people didn't even sleep because they are thinking about me."
Fan Lin said to her with a slight smile.
"Ohh, are there females too?"
She asked him after a thinking a little.
"Probably. I can't remember most of them anyways."
Fan Lin said to her.
'This beast! How dare he sleep with so many of them! Humans are the worst! '
Huo Yun thought.
"So what do you want from me?"
Fan Lin asked again.
"Nothing. Can you tell me about the world outside the Deep North? I haven't been there, so I wanted to know about it a long time ago but since I am one of the leaders of the Deep North so I am unable to leave here."
She said to him after a long time of staring at his face.
"Mmmm, let's start with the smaller towns. The smaller towns has lots of trees and parks. You can buys various foods from the food stall. There are hundreds of things that you can buy from the market. There are schools, theatres and many other places..."
Fan Lin started telling her about the world that he had seen. Over 60 percent of that talk was about food. He was a good storyteller. Something he learnt while living in the forest for fifteen years.
He was slowly telling her of the things one by one as to gather her attention and to make it more interesting. He told her about local myths and legends, their special cultures and their food.
He was patiently explaining to all the things that humans liked to do or enjoy. He told her about the staff of the Shrek city. There famous street foods, the parks, the couples and everything about the Shrek Academy that he knew.
The Heavenly Snow Woman Huo Yun also listened to his story. She was also entranced about the tales of the world that she had once imagined but it was far more beautiful than her imagination.
Everything that Fan Lin explained was something that she wanted to experience. Be it the food or those rides or those famous couple spots. She wanted to do it.
She really wanted to enjoy the colourful life of the world of the humans.
