The room was large but the artifacts in the room seemed to belong to a healer for sure . There was a circular drawn on the ground and it glowed blue aw Xu Jing lay in the circle.
An elderly man was by his side moving his hands and fingers in the motion to drive in energy to cause Xu Jing's body to glow blue as Faratan weaved in the blue sizzling healing energy.
Akira stood by the other dide watching with content as Faratan weaved in the magic. Faratan was one the healers among the C rank administration. He was a C rank healer and was very good with his work. He was also cheaper to render services thsn other C ranks who greedily extorted pearls from the enchanters.
With all the years of experience, Faratan had, he spoke to Akira as Akira watched him weave in the healing spell
"Are you sure this kid was in the hall when the energies were released?" he asked guaging his action and still watching the reaction of Akira to his question.
"Yes. It still surprised me how he managed to survive. Why do you ask?" Akira asked sensing that Faratan must have found a very useful information to ask such a question.
Faratan waved his hands slowly allowing the energy to chanel into the body of Xu Jing.
"His body status does not show any break down from an external energy , rather it displays that he was fatigued by his own energy . And seems like gat energy was large enough to cause a serious damage to him.".
"How is that possible? This boy is a civilian ranked enchanter with only two enigmatic cells, two enigmatic cells lower than the weakest rank we have ever had before . " Akira muttered under his breathe as he looked at Xu Jing with anxiety lurking around him .
Akira looked at Faratan as he was performing his healing technique, he wanted to ask him some questions concerning Xu Jing's health and responsiveness.
"How is he responding to the treatment? Is it encouraging ? "Akira asked as he looked at Faratan with content in his eyes .
"He is responding to the treatment quite fast. But he seems to be far of from here , probably in the spiritual realm. " Faratan walked to Akira , quenching the blue energy around Xu Jing.
"What do you mean a spiritual realm?" Akira asked not understanding how a civilian ranked enchanter would be in the spiritual realm. Faratan smiled at him.

"Gasp!.."
Xu Jing woke up suddenly to find herself in another world . He began to think again . What happened? Why was he here? He tried to remember what had happened before he had collapsed in the hall but he couldn't remember a single thing that had happened .
Just then , he had a real flush of memory. The act of him killing Dennis nearly made him purge. He held his hands on his head as his head was pounding seriously.
"Aargh!!" Xu Jing exclaimed in pain as the memory began to wind a powerful wave through his head. Xu Jing fell back to the ground.
"Where am I !?" Xu Jing exclaimed at the top of his voice. He was sure that the actions he had put out in the hall was in relation to Hatan.
Just as he expected, Hatan emerged from the northern hemisphere of the realm, folding up great energy behind him. Xu Jing watched as fear began to elude him. He could not bear seeing an enchanter in such act.
"Why am I here ? Have I already died ?" Xu Jing asked when Hatan had settled himself before him. Xu Jing could feel the throbbing pain lurking itself around his body. It was an adverse effect of the actions he had undertaken.
Hatan did not respond immediately, he took his time to digest his observation about Xu Jing. He was a good looking young man with good features. He smiled to himself before speaking .
"You are not dead but you can be if you make a mistake . You are here because this is the trans path to the other world where of course the dead inhabit. "
"Tut.. " Xu Jing gasped as he heard those words from Hatan . He did not want to die now. He had not yet accomplished his aims in life. He had not paid the bills of his sister and had not seen to it that Fugi was brought back home alive.
"I don't want to die, please help me." Xu Jing pleaded with Hatan. Hatan smiled at Xu Jing and he replied to him.
"That is why I came. I came to help you restore happiness in your life . I am Hatan , your possessor. I will be using you to help you level up."
Xu Jing for a moment stared in awe as Hatan spoke . What the f*ck did he mean by possessor. What did he mean by level up. Just then the memories of what he had done in the hall came rushing like a strong wind into the brain of Xu Jing.
Then he immediately understood what Hatan meant. He was going to be used for physical activities to jelo level up. But with the knowledge of Hatan being his possessor, he was eager to ask him a question that meant so much to him.
"Have I leveled up?" But the reply he got was disappointing and it caused Xu Jing's heart to break.
"Unfortunately, no. What I did with you some minutes ago was just a pre entry action and had nothing to do with your rank ." Hatan said as he began to walk towards Xu Jing.
"What do possessors do? Why were you sent to me and how did you get me?" Xu Jing asked curiously. Hatan gave a large smile that was too generous for a spirit like him.
"Long ago , about three decades ago, some set of enchanters found out that the could turn themselves into spirits that could take control of any being. The experiment was finalized with Cazom getting possessed by three S rank enchanters.
However , this young man leveled up to an SS rank from an A rank. He was however killed by a greater demon which caused every one who knew about the process to keep silent for they believed that if the leaked the information and some enchanters got possessed by the possessors then they would attack everyone involved in the action. " as Hatan said this, Xu Jing gulped hard as he knew he was possessed by Hatan and from Hatan 's statement the originators of possessors would come for his life.
Hatan reading his fears let out to him.
"Not to worry, I wasn't created by an enchanter, I was sent by the supreme being. You were destined for something great and without me your destiny can nit be fulfilled ." he said and glanced back at Xu Jing who was trembling seriously in fear and anxiety.
"There is nothing to worry about. The sign on the back of your neck linked me to you and I am going to help you level up ti a great height." Hatan said and paused. He began to feel the healing energy of Faratan .
"Seems like your people are beckoning on your soul to return . You are free to return to your world." Hatan said while vanishing at the same time.
"No !! I haven't fin..." he was about say 'finished yet' when Hatan disappeared out of the realm.
"Noo !!!" Xu Jing exclaimed as Hatan left. He had some questions for him and he needed urgent answers. He cried out not knowing when he got back to earth again.
He sat up as soon as he was revived while exclaiming . Faratan and Akira looked at Xu Jing as he was brought back to consciousness.
"Good you are alive. It is a real mystery how you survived in the hall." Akira said as he walked towards Xu Jing who was now in the floor where the circle had been drawn . The blue energy had seized to exist after Xu Jing was brought back to consciousness and reality.
Xu Jing stared at Akira and recognized that he was one of the administrators of the C ranks. He managed to give a faint smile. Although he was seriously wounded and brutalized, the hesling power of Faratan helped to cause the bleeding and pains to cease. It marveled Xu Jing to see such power of healing. He looked up at Akira . He guessed he was not done talking yet.
"We would like to interrogate you when you recover fully. We would like you to explain to us what happened in the hall." Akira said as he began leaving.
Xu Jing's heart pounded hard as he noticed that he could not tell them that he was the killer of Dennis. He may be punished severely for that single act. Moreover, he could not tell them because they were not going to believe him. After all he was a civilian ranked enchanter. Nothing much was expected from a weakling like him.
"Phew !" Xu Jing sighed . He was going to have to scale his way through those inquisitive administrators. He lay on the floor out of tiredness and weakness. He was weak right now and needed some rest. He closed his eyelids and soon he was drifted into a nice catching sleep
