Become A Human In Another World
ACT 4: Chapter 36 - Meet!
"D-dimensional 0?" ask Eina slowly.
Liu Xiu turned his head to the others, but all just looked at Liu Xiu's face expectantly and asked. It made Liu Xiu take a breath preparing to tell a story.
"In short, Dimension 0 is an astral world, a world where people call the creatures that are there are ghosts. It was different from the Spirit, and different from some other supernatural things. They are just creatures that should not be resisted." Liu Xiu said beginning his story.
"You must be thinking why, right? Alright. Have you ever heard a story about the strongest man and his shadow?"
All staring. "No, Master."
"It's just an old story, about someone claiming to be the strongest. People start challenging him, and they all lose."
"But there was a wise man who came and told him to come to his place if he dared. And with some provocation from the sage, the arrogant man ended up following the man, and fighting him."
"On the day of the battle, the man continued to hear the wise man's voice when he got to his place. It sounds from every direction. The strong man went berserk, and attacked all the places that let out a sound."
"However, the voice did not stop and was heard more and more often. It was a long time ago that made that man go crazy." Liu Xiu said at the end of the story.
Everyone looked at Liu Xiu with sparkling eyes, and looked amazed for a moment, but Liu Xiu continued his hand violently.
"Good! Storytelling session's over. What can we take away from the story?" ask Liu Xiu.
Everyone shut up, thinking about whether this was a good move to take. But it seemed Celica was already dissolved in the story, and raised a hand.
"Don't get too cocky with the power you have, and don't forget that there's still a lot more power out there!" shout Celica. It made Liu Xiu startled for a moment, but he immediately smiled.
"That's right. But that's not what's related to this matter right now." Liu Xiu replied. It makes everyone look confused.
"alright. In accordance with this problem. We must not fight something invisible. When we move forward without a plan, it is a bad thing, and it is tantamount to suicide. Do you remember how the wise man won? He's already prepared a lot of plans to fight that guy."
"When you fight something invisible, you don't know their strength. And if you don't have any plan, it's better not to fight it" Liu Xiu said.
All nodded hearing that, like hearing a lecture started by Liu Xiu.
"Yahh, that's. Take note of that, Beta!" liu Xiu said, raising his voice at the end of the word. The people around immediately went into a daze, looking for the person Liu Xiu had called just now.
Beta emerged from the bush, and walked over while gnawing and pounding his head. "A-ahh, I guess I can't fool Master's eyes."
"That's not important. Where's Alpha now?"
"He's still looking for the Master. He definitely won't be back before finding Fischia. Otherwise, he would have no face to meet with the Master. I'm sure it's like that." answered Beta.
Liu Xiu patted his eel slowly, and sighed. He had been confused at first, but he was now thinking a little.
"Beta, find Alpha. Tell him to come back and keep the others here. Whatever he does, he won't be able to find Fischia. But it looks like something is coming to attack you, so you guys have to defend" Liu Xiu said.
""Okay, Master!!"" all agree with compact.
"Then, what about the Master. What will the Master do?" ask Ghea slowly.
"I? I'm just gonna say hi to the river guard and bring Fischia home!" liu Xiu said with a confident smile.
"Oh yeah! There's a chance I'll be gone until morning. You guys go that long, who knows I need you!!" liu Xiu shouted before leaving them.
"alright. You heard the Master! Beta! You know what you have to do, so stop writing and leave!!! Me and the others will prepare for defense!" dain said after Liu Xiu left.
Beta who was writing in her diary was shocked, then a little pouted.
"Ugh, Gain. You always annoy people with pleasure." Beta grumbled with her eyes staring flat and her mouth slightly pursed.
But in contrast to his mouth that said that, Beta immediately put his book in his pocket, and jumped away quickly.

"Huhuahh!! I can conclude that Fischia was kidnapped for nothing. I actually don't understand Dimension 0." Liu Xiu complained after being quite far away from the camping spot.
"Because I used [Sharp***Hearing****], I heard some ghosts talking to each other, and sounded happy."
"They are also like talking about something similar to bringing a Beast, and will be taken to the palace of His Majesty. That sounds horrible, but how else. That's the only clue there is." he continued gloomily.
A black shadow appeared above his head, seemingly a picture of his fatigue.
?!!
Liu Xiu felt more whispers now. Not only that, he also heard the gurgling sound of water growing louder and louder.
"Waterfall, huh?" ask Liu Xiu quietly. He sharpened his senses now, and focused on his hearing. He knew, that sight would be useless now, so he focused on his [Sharp Hearing] skill.
Liu Xiu took out his black katana, and began to act for a moment.
But no one or even anything greeted Liu Xiu when he found the waterfall that made a sound to guide him here.
"It's beautiful, if the atmosphere is not gripping like this" Liu Xiu said as he continued walking.
It is true Liu Xiu said. The whisper that usually appeared in Liu Xiu's ears now disappeared. And the darkness of the night made it even more terrifying. Moreover, the moonlight is covered by the dark clouds, it really becomes a place that raises the feathers just by setting foot there.
"Huh?" Liu Xiu raised his eyebrows when he saw a flat rock in the middle of the lake that was under the waterfall. But after looking around, he immediately came to his senses.
"That's an altar, isn't it?" Liu Xiu laughed in silence.
He jumped onto the stone, then waited for something to happen. But nothing seemed to happen, it made Liu Xiu tired of waiting. He might not know how it was Dimension 0, but he at least understood his concept.
And again, he had already experienced such a world, just like during practice or when fighting Alpha and Beta back then.
"I just need to try it." whispered Liu Xiu quietly.
Liu Xiu pulled he said from his container, and prepared. Hand and said he put it to the back of his head. His body and legs lowered, with a slightly forward leaning posture.
He took a breath, focused on the sound of the sounds around, and tried to fuse his body with nature, just like he had done before.
It was then that he felt a cold air flowing all over his body, and the more he focused on that cold air, the wind turned warm, and the sound of sound came back. It is becoming clearer now, in contrast to before.
Hearing all that, he immediately opened his eyes, and realized that he was now in a place that had no color, and was filled with many people around him.
But the moment after Liu Xiu opened his eyes, he returned again to the place of the very quiet waterfall at the beginning.
