Become A Human In Another World
ACT 5: Chapter 8 - Secrets
"From now you're talking about life energy. What exactly are you saying?!" ask Liu Xiu.
Yuan Yi who saw that tilted her head, looking puzzled. It happened just for a moment, before Yuan Yi brought her face closer to Liu Xiu's face, visibly observing as she held a hand on her chin.
Seeing that, Liu Xiu simply looked at him with a flat gaze, looking disinterested.
"You... You really don't know, do you?" yuan Yi said while retreating.
"Well, then, I'm sorry. And I'm leaving, so clean up the mess here, okay?!" yuan Yi said as he blinked one eye.
("He? What the hell is that?! He's running away? After the mess he made?") asked Liu Xiu inwardly.
"Hey hey hey! Waitaminute! After you do that, where are you going, huh?" liu Xiu shouted as soon as Yuan Yi ran outside the illusion wall.
Yuan Yi simply raised a hand, unconcerned and walked leisurely in the hallway.
Liu Xiu slightly growled furiously. He slightly looked around, with all the chaos Yuan Yi had already made. It would be a difficult matter even if trying to say it was part of the Adventurer Guild's task.
Moreover, even though Liu Xiu could earn a lot of money because he had already captured some of the people Yuan Yi defeated, but it was likely that it would be used to cover the damages.
"Why did I get the juice from my own plan. But having come this far, this was the best chance to profit from it!" liu Xiu said slowly.
"Wait!!" liu Xiu shouted again, and moved quickly in front of Yuan Yi, blocking him.
"What's wrong? Wouldn't you be better off cleaning it up?" asked Yuan Yi indifferently.
"You crazy woman! Do you think you'll run away after all? Answer my question, and a few others. That way I'll let you go!" liu Xiu said he remained focused on his choice.
Yuan Yi sighed slightly while looking down tired.
"Then, then..." Yuan Yi moved to the right, wanting to walk past Liu Xiu just like that. But of course, Liu Xiu did not let her leave just like that.
Yuan Yi kept trying while changing her movements, but Liu Xiu could still follow her movements, and still block Yuan Yi's path.
"Sad.." Yuan Yi nodded slowly.
He then took a breath for a moment, before he moved as quickly as possible, to outwit Liu Xiu. In just a second, he could already pass Liu Xiu and make a distance of about 5 meters!!
"Huh! Amateurs!!" yuan Yi's laughter as he mocked Liu Xiu as he made it past him while laughing softly looking down on Liu Xiu behind him.
?!!
Liu Xiu who had just been behind Yuan Yi, was now already before him again, with just a pause as Yuan Yi moved his head!!
("What is it! The teleportation? Even the wind didn't move when he moved, what did this mean?") asked Yuan Yi inwardly.
Yuan Yi was stunned for a moment, looking at Liu Xiu who was standing before her.
Liu Xiu sighed. But he had no intention of letting Yuan Yi off just like that.
"Then, great. At least I have a picture of how the Li family works" Liu Xiu said.
"What do you mean?"
"How about I say, that the General of the Li family, Li Yuan Yi fled after damaging the citizens. And I can also make that broken wall as proof!!" said Liu Xiu raising an eyebrow.
"Curtain! You threatening me? Is that what you call a real man?" asked Yuan Yi slightly pouting.
"Well, I don't care. After all, you did the same thing, so I just saw we are the same people here. I also never said that I was a real man." said Liu Xiu, now laughing instead.
Yuan Yi was silent. But he really can't say what now.
If he refused, directly the Li family's pride would be at stake. The good name he had been guarding would be reduced. It was good to silence Liu Xiu, but he knew it was impossible.
("Ugh.. I don't know, but I've been using disguises and changing my name and appearance, but why did she know it was me?") asked Yuan Yi inwardly.
"So, which one did you choose, Princess?" ask Liu Xiu.
Yuan Yi bit her lips slightly, then let out a long sigh.
"Gee! Alright alright! I'll explain a little! Life energy is something that exists in a person. Usually everyone has a different amount, and it affects their abilities."
"But when I look at yours, it's huge, because I see it's like it belongs to thousands, or even tens of thousands."
"Honestly, I got a bit creepy when I saw you, because of the weirdness you brought. I can't even believe a creature like you would exist. But you don't even know what life energy is, it makes it even stranger!" clearly Yuan Yi was at length.
Yuan Yi looked at Liu Xiu sharply, with her mouth pouting.
Liu Xiu thought for a moment. He tried to think about what Yuan Yi said. After all he was trying to relate everything to what he had experienced all along.
("Does that mean the Albert incident? I remember a lot of them coming into my body. Is that what life energy is?") thought Liu Xiu.
Liu Xiu nodded his head slowly, and smiled.
"alright. I-i understand. But is that all you can tell me? Isn't that too little?" liu Xiu asked trying to urge Yuan Yi.
"W-what are you saying?! Just for just now, I could have been sentenced to death for telling that, you know?!!" yell Yuan.
It made Liu Xiu astonished, all at once amazed.
("Only that information could have such an effect? And that means he chose death over his polluted exit good name? This woman is crazy!") thought Liu Xiu.
