After a light sleep, Ulu was yet again awoken by a coughing fit.
He could no longer recall how many consecutive days this had been, a fact which brought him annoyance and irritation to the point that upon waking, he couldn't help but inwardly shout furiously, "Visas, you..."
But before he could finish, the coughing intensified, though it came from next door.
Only then did Ulu realize that the coughing that disturbed his peace wasn't his own, but his neighbor's, which sounded like the innkeeper, who was in poor health.
"What's wrong?" Bai Wei's leisurely voice resounded in Ulu's mind.
Originally intending to question Bai Wei about what he had done to his body, Ulu remained silently sullen for a moment before muttering, "Nothing, just checking if you're still around, dead or not."
