As I walk along the road, I see Wei Han approaching me
"You did something didn't you"
What could you be talking about?
"The death of the clan leader"
I was stupid and attracted the attention of the Xiao clan
"You expect me to believe that? We had a treaty"
You know the nature of their clan, they never uphold their part
"I guess that's true, but I'm still weary of you"
"It just throws me off, you were gone for so long for something that shouldn't have token longer than a few minutes"
The line was really long
His eyes still full of skepticism
"Alright, it's just a suspicion, but I have no way of proving my doubts"
You're full of injuries. Something happened during class right?
"It's nothing. A mutation happened"
I see as his legs slightly wobble
Don't overuse your Qu. How many were harmed?
"5 brave souls were lost including the mutant, and besides me no one else was injured"
Who was killed?
"Cho Mei, Zhu Rou, Yu Xia, Ya Xia, and Shan Yu"
I sigh a breath of relief that she's alright
"How do you feel about death"
Death is tragic thing that every living thing goes through. Only true evil would take another's life.
Wei Han turns around and walks away
Shortly after, I walk towards the school to receive my reward
While walking, Wei Han's words linger in my head. How do I really feel about death? Death is part of nature's cycle. All go through it, with seemingly no way to end the cycle. Even the strong cannot overwhelm death. God's too go through death. I, however, will break the cycle.
As I approach the building that the class is being held at, I can't help but be very eager for my prize.
