"Goodbye System", said John as he faded away, excited to get his soul space unlocked.
*****
He came to in his room. To access the mind space, you have to be unconscious, so when in the mind space, you must be either asleep or unconscious in person.
John stood up from his bed, somehow he felt like the atmosphere in Vagrant Town had been cleansed.
He walked out of the room calmly, only the shaking of his fingers betrayed his inner excitement of getting his soul space unlocked.
'I hope Uncle Wang has calmed down already', thought John, remembering the scene that happened before.
He walked down the hallway to Uncle Wang's room.
He had just gotten to the threshold of the room when the door opened by itself.
Remembering he and Eleanor having to knock and himself opening the door with his hands, John felt like laughing, so you could do this since?
As he entered the room, he found Uncle Wang sitting where he was before all calm and cool as if the one who raged mightily before wasn't him.
John looked around the room and was amazed that the furniture in the room were still intact, since Uncle Wang's rage could affect him all the way outside the room, why were the furniture still intact? What a superb display of control!
'But, come to think of it, that means he purposely tried to keep me out!', thought John angrily.
Uncle Wang saw him looking at the furniture with amazement and anger, he explained to him,
"Ashamed as it makes me, I couldn't properly control my power in my time of anger, so everything in the whole room was destroyed", he stood up and said, his face, surprisingly uncovered, seeing that John still had a questioning look on his face,
"Oh! This?", he gestured at the furniture, "I simply rewound time on them", he said as if what he did was a little thing, but John could swear he saw a smirk of pride flash across his face.
'Proud bastard! But seriously, the power to control time? Such a broken power to have!', thought John in admiration.
Uncle Wang didn't know why but he enjoyed surprising John.
"So, what brings you here for the second time today?", asked Uncle Wang, sitting back down on his chair.
John walked over and sat opposite him and replied earnestly,
"I want to unlock my soul space".
"Hmmmm… Ok, let me see if I have what you need", said Uncle Wang.
He reached forward with his right hand and as if there was something obstructing John's view, he couldn't see the area surrounding Uncle Wang's hand again.
"Yang enhancing pill… not this, rod of permanence pill… not this too, statue of monkey stealing peach… let's hope you'll never need that", he told John and continued searching,
"Ah-ah, a bottle of Soul Unlocking Pills", he threw the bottle over to John, " take the whole bottle, I don't know why I still have this!".
John took it and kept it in his pocket with a poker face. "These pills are not sufficient to unlock my soul space, I need something more, something stronger… like Demigod's blood", said John.
{Way to make up a story, Dumbass! What kind of fool drops a bomb without preparation! You! That's who!}
John ignored the system for it couldn't understand his wisdom.
"Then give me my pills back! You smart ass! You should have said so before", said Uncle Wang as he reached his left hand forward.
"Nah! You don't even need it!", shot back John, "not like I do too, but it might be worth some money", he mumbled.
"A money grubber eh?", asked Uncle Wang laughing,
"Hmmm… Demigod blood? I have that, lots even. But why did you name it specifically? As if you were so sure that's what you needed?", he asked suspiciously.
System! watch, listen and learn, watch how a writer lies.
"I'm sure you've figured out something wrong with my soul and memories?", he asked.
"Yes… your soul is locked with spiritual chains and all your old memories are locked, which even for me are impossible to unlock", Uncle Wang shot a curious look at John because he knew how strong he was and for him not being able to unlock it, means whoever did it, was far stronger than he was.
"I still haven't regained all my memories but a little surfaced today, in my family, to unlock our soul space, we need a far more powerful stimulus than soul unlocking pills to unlock our soul space, and the blood of beings closer to Godhood is needed, sometimes, we use God blood", saying all this, John had an expectant look on his face.
{Now you've done it, I told you Demigod Blood, you mentioned God blood too as if God Blood will bring you more benefits, though it would… that is if you can take the pain}
John wouldn't lie, he was just being greedy after all, he wasn't omniscient, but now that the System told him so, he really wanted it.
Uncle Wang listening to the explanation, rubbed his chin in disbelief, in his long years alive, he had never heard of a clan or family that used Demigod Blood or God Blood for such purposes, he didn't want to believe, but there was only one wey to find out…
"God Blood, I have too but in scanty quantities, since Gods are not so easy to come across, I'll give you a little God blood".
Saying so, he reached into his space again, another period of not this, not that, went by again, until,
"Why can't you just go in and get it? After all, what you're doing is controlling space", asked John, secretly feeling like Uncle Wang was stupid.
"Silly me, I guess the novelty wore off after a while. I just wanted to surprise you, though I agree this wastes time", said Uncle Wang, he snapped his fingers and both he and John vanished into a space crack.
"Welcome to my treasury! My world! The center of my Universe! Spanning 5,000 meters, I present to you, Wang's World!", showed off a proud Uncle Wang.
"Wow!", John exclaimed.
They were in a place that reminded John of space which he saw in pictures and drawings back on Earth.
He looked down only to find surprisingly, that what he stood on was solid and treasures spanned all over the vast distance.
Gold, Silver, some diamond-like gems that came in different colors and weapons.
"Chill, the best part is yet to come", said Uncle Wang excitedly, John was infected by his excitement too.
"Lian Qi!", he shouted.
Suddenly, a transparent being appeared in front of them, she reminded John of the Asian beauties back on Earth, she had jet black hair, a pale complexion, and a petite body.
'But isn't this just a hologram? AI?', though they hardly existed on Earth, John couldn't see anything to be excited about, looking at Uncle Wang feeling proud, John laughed on the inside at ancient people.
"Yes, Master?", the beauty named Lian Qi asked.
'Master-Servant play?' Now John was excited.
'Good, he's excited!', he just didn't know it was for the wrong reasons.
"You see, Lian Qi is a treasury spirit, no, no, that's not the word, she's a treasury AB? AI, yes! That's it! I got her when I went outside last", he explained to John.
"Show me the catalog, Lian Qi", he said.
"Yes Master", Lian Qi replied.
A hologram of everything in Wang's world appeared in front of them.
"Search, God Blood", he said.
[Blood of God of Fire, Quantity: 3 drops]
[Blood of God of Time, Quantity: ½ drops]
[Blood of a DemiGod of Dreams, Quantity: a bucketful]
[Blood of a DemiGod of Fire, Quantity: 3 lake size]
[Blood of a…
Blood of a…
Blood of a…
Blood of a... ]
"Get me the God of Fire's blood", said Uncle Wang to Lian Qi.
She nodded and a small vial of golden blood appeared in her hands.
Uncle Wang gave it to John who had starry eyes, he turned to Uncle Wang who had a feeling he would not like what he heard,
"Heyyyo, how about adding a lake size of Demigod Blood?", John the money grubber was back online.
Uncle Wang turned red from anger,
"Scrammmm!!!!"
