It had been two days for the healer to treat Xie Ran who was covered in wounds, let alone the girl not coming to her senses from the coma causing Xie Chen to be unable to stop fidgeting. The man had even trouble sleeping because he had not gotten any answers from Xie Ran yet. He needs an explanation about the coming of the Dragon that brings destruction.
On the third day, the healer again checked Xie Ran's condition. Xie Chen watched closely, hoping that the girl would quickly come to her senses and explain everything early. Unfortunately Xie Ran's injuries were so bad, bandages everywhere bandaged his body until blood penetrated from the white bandage.
Xie Ran's condition was very concerning, with his weak body, it would be difficult for him to come to his senses sooner. Right after that thought flashed, Xie Chen's gaze became serious upon noticing the movement of Xie Ran's fingers.
Xie Chen sighed. He immediately approached the poor girl, preparing to ask her many questions.
Xie Ran opened the petals slowly balancing the entry of light into the eyes. He frowned, seeing Xie Chen's presence made his clear eyeballs show emptiness. As usual, he looked confused when he saw the room he occupied.
Xie Ran hissed in pain, feeling his wound widen as he moved. He held his hand full of white bandages revealing red blood from wounds that did not dry out. The doctor rushed to use painkillers, the girl immediately took them inevitably.
After taking pain medication, the girl biting her lips withstanding the pain that was still spreading. His gaze shifted on Xie Chen and the Physician alternated like a confused person. Furthermore, his pale face showed anxiety while cornered himself in the corner of the bed like a frightened person.
Xie Ran pulled the blanket until it covered his entire body hanging trembling. His gaze was confused and full of fear, he even looked down not wanting to look at the two men. His actions just now made Xie Chen frown.
"What's wrong with her?" xie Chen asked the Physician.
The doctor breathed. He felt sorry for poor Xie Ran. "It looks like Xie Ran is going through a severe trauma and will remain like this for a while."
Xie Chen sighed. He should have expected this to happen based on the situation of Xie Ran who was now a fool. Now coupled with the heavy trauma, he was increasingly unable to ask about the Dragon attack without hurting the girl.
"Is there no other solution?" ask Xie Chen. He could not let Xie Ran continue like this, let alone without giving him information.
"Can only wait. So far, trauma has no physical cure. Only by changing his living conditions, the possibility of recovery is greater," said Physician. He knew exactly the condition of Xie Ran who suffered severe trauma long ago, but the trauma was still not as severe as it is now. It is too late to cure it other than with special treatment.
"W-who .. you guys?" lirih Xie Ran in the corner there with a look of fear. He was still shaking until he broke out in cold sweat to see the two men present in his room.
Xie Chen was somewhat surprised, then asked the Physician, "Why him?"
The healer glanced at Xie Ran full of pity. "Do you know who you are? How are you here?"
Xie Ran thought for a moment while squeezing the blanket. He shook his head quickly and let out tears then lowered his head in fear of not looking at them again.
"It looks like the trauma made him lose all his memory, even his own name does not remember. If forced, it would be fatal to his nerves." The doctor breathed a sigh. Unfortunately the girl, traumatized, lost her memory.
Xie Chen knew for sure that memory loss could not be recovered easily. Xie Ran really needs special treatment for someone who is mentally impaired.
Xie Chen did not say much anymore. He let the Physician go leaving her with Xie Ran in one room. He wanted to be sure, at least once.
"You don't remember me?" Xie Chen was still trying to be sure.
"You ...." Xie Ran frowned then held onto his aching head. He shook his head quickly while hissing pain almost crying.
"That's it, no need to remember. Your name is Xie Ran, that's all you need to know." Xie Chen left after saying it with mixed feelings. He is not informed, plus must face Xie Ran who lost his memory. The day was really shit.
Xie Ran inside looked at Xie Chen's departure. The longer the further away from the dilapidated area, while Xie Ran's blank gaze gradually flat and full of sharp and cunning views. He slightly raised the corner of his lips expressing satisfaction.
Xie Ran threw down the blanket and then got out of bed. He grimaced the pain of forgetting his wounds as soon as he stood up. Sit down slowly and open the bandage wrapped around his hands. The wound on his hand was real, but the Physician was not good at treating it so Xie Ran had to re-treat using his own means.
Two little Dragons came from the wide open window. The lizard-shaped dragon and snake instantly landed on the bed, looking at their Master who was bandaging wounds.
Long Yun's mouth let out a silver ray directed at Xie Ran's wound. Xie Ran was somewhat surprised to see the warm silver rays coming in healing all of his injuries gradually so that his body was covered in silver rays.
The comfortable sensation was so felt for a moment before it changed to itching. Xie Ran was convinced that the itching was a regeneration process so he had to slightly endure the discomfort for a while.
After the silver rays were gone, the agony of itching ended up being replaced by a light sensation and freedom like when her face became beautiful. He was no longer pale but fresher. Even though her makeup was so ugly, her smile remained like honey.
"Thank you," Xie Ran said to Long Yun and Long Huo. They have helped him return to this place without suspicion—although he was initially suspicious. With the idea of memory loss, Xie Ran can be separated from various questions.
The two cute Dragons slightly let out a hoarse-sounding voice then tilted their heads. They are like cute baby dinosaurs!
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing." Xie Ran had let go of himself full of wounds and stepped on. It was fortunate that the poison in his body had already disappeared or he had already died many times before falling into the valley.
Before carrying out that crazy plan, Long Yun and Long Huo initially disagreed because of Xie Ran who wanted to injure himself. But if it doesn't do that, suspicion is thrown in full. He didn't want his plan to go awry so had to convince the two Dragons to cooperate.
It came today. Although Xie Ran had to be in a coma for two days, he was still able to recover because he had a fairly strong physique.
"Oh yeah, where's the enchantment magic book?" Xie Ran recalled that Long Yun stole the enchantment magic book from the clan library building. The action at that time was very cool, Xie Ran liked it very much.
The magic book appeared right in front of Xie Ran. It has a dull red color as well as has some intricate and unique symbols on the cover. Xie Ran had never seen such a complicated symbol before.
As soon as Xie Ran opened the tome, it was a shock that he was greeted by various unknown writings and symbols so he took off the book just like there was a ghost coming out. It's creepy, it's scarier than math.
There are many pictures, symbols, numbers, and letters, such as irregular history books as well as random mathematical formulas. It cannot be read, it can only be seen with an empty mind.
"Why ..." shrieked Xie Ran felt his head throb. For the first time he really wished he could lose his full memory and live a life as a fool.
The two Dragons looked at the contents of the first page which was truly sinister. They tilted their heads and shook their heads weakly. They thought, such language is very difficult to learn by Humans especially Xie Ran.
Someone has to guide him. But who? The mysterious man before never appeared again as if completely lost from the world. Xie Ran was really frustrated right now.
No one can train him properly. It was because the magic language was so complex, it was more than what Xie Ran had ever seen. Moreover, the book he had read before had a translation so he did not think of learning the language of magic or not.
The sun gradually set and rose again illuminating the world. Xie Ran was still paying attention to unknown symbols with a blank mind and spinning like a phone that had no signal. He had already flipped through the books, but did not understand the intent of all the symbols while the two Dragons had fallen asleep waiting for their master.
"Long Huo, Long Yun, can you read it?" Xie Ran asked tiredly. The two Dragons gasped to their feet, digesting Xie Ran's words then nodded.
When Xie Ran felt hope in plain sight, Long Huo's remark caused his shoulders to limp, "But."
Xie Ran felt like crying. How could he practice if he did not understand the basics?
"Maybe the Great Lord can help." Long Yun gave Xie Ran some hope.
"Where is he?" Xie Ran was excited again. Why not since yesterday he was thinking about that Great Lord.
The two Dragons' gaze was shifted on the pendant hanging on Xie Ran's neck. Xie Ran followed the two Dragons' line of sight, then frowned.
"Continue?" Xie Ran made sure, the two Dragons nodded simultaneously. They did not speak anymore leaving a question mark on Xie Ran's head.
Is that man not human? Ghost waiting for the locket?
"How do you call him?" Xie Ran was still suppressing the emotions in his heart. He tried to calm down and asked the two Dragons in order to prepare to scold and beat the man who had cheated and watched him be abandoned for five years.
"Get in the locket." Long Huo spoke doubtfully. Somehow he felt that this master was suppressing something in his words. That made him not dare to wiggle.
Xie Ran took off the necklace, looking at the jade-white pendant was puzzled. How did he get in? His pendant was so small and did not have any magic gaps for him to get inside.
"How's it?" xie Ran asked in surprise.
"Actually your body can come inside. But your strength is not enough that only your soul can enter. I can get you inside completely!" Long Yun looked excited in contrast to the cautious Long Huo. Long Huo felt a bad feeling.
Xie Ran put on a bright smile. Apparently it takes a great amount of magic to enter completely. He doesn't want just a soul. He really wanted to enter that small world.
"Bring me!" Xie Ran was still stunned as he stared at the pendant in his hand. It was only fitting that Wen Xi told her not to be let go no matter what. This locket is so precious. Maybe there is a fantasy city that has never been thought of. If there is a city in the mirror, this time there is a city in the pendant.
Long Yun prepared everything. He and Long Huo would also enter because they did not want to be left alone in this slum. As long as they were inside, the pendant could disguise itself so that no one else would find it.
Silver rays appeared surrounding the bodies of Xie Ran and Long Yun while Long Huo had a dark red color.
Slowly after another, their bodies faded and turned into rays that entered into the pendant like a shrinking wind.
The process did not last long, in a few seconds, the three creatures of different races disappeared from the slum room replaced by a small pendant that floated in the air. The locket fell down and became transparent in an instant.
...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
I don't know when Xie Ran should close his eyes. Ever since the light appeared forcing him to close his eyes, he felt nothing more so as to keep him in his position.
A roar sounded telling him to open his eyes. Xie Ran complied and started to open his eyes. The light went inside looking at the blue sky filled with clouds. His feet tread on clean green grass in the absence of dry grass or pests. It was as green as if she was on a grass carpet.
Xie Ran was stunned, until his mouth was rounded as he circulated the view all over the island. An island floating above the clouds, there are many other small islands around and filled with waterfalls. Xie Ran could hear the soothing cascading of the falls, as well as the waterfalls flowing underneath to the outside of the island like fountains.
This is awesome!
After all this time Xie Ran was able to smile happily. Lastly, she smiled happily when she realized that her face turned out to be beautiful. Now he was just as happy when he saw a scene that was completely beyond common sense.
Xie Ran, whose position is above the waterfall, can see the entire small island filled with natural nuances. He felt he was in a fantasy world .. no, he was indeed in a fantasy world!
Long Huo and Long Yun were in their original forms. They stood on the right and left side of Xie Ran as if protecting. They were happy to see their master happy.
"All this ... Who created it?" Xie Ran looked at the two Dragons in turn.
The two Dragons looked confused then shook their heads in ignorance. Never mind, the important thing is that Xie Ran has found a suitable place to practice. He only needed to ask certain Great Lords for permission and train calmly without having to look at his cursed half-brother.
"Where is he?" Xie Ran asked about the mysterious man. The area was not too big or small so he could see the entire island from above, but found no one.
The two Dragons shook their heads again. Xie Ran sighed and sat down on the rock lazily. "You can't call him? What's name?"
Again the two dragons shook their heads. They did not dare to call it either. It made Xie Ran annoyed half to death!
They did not know that Xie Ran could do anything if he was already upset like this. So what if the man was hiding from her? Xie Ran will lure him!
"Long Yun, you've seen him before. How old do you think he is?" Xie Ran tried to estimate.
"His face is not far from 20 years old. But given his great strength, it should have been thousands of years old or over 10,000 years old. I'm the only one who's been 10,000 years isn't his opponent." Long Yun shuddered as he recalled the incident.
"10,000 years?" Xie Ran raised his eyebrows. "There's a 10,000-year-old man with a 20-year-old face."
"But this is reality!" Long Yun felt fear if the man heard it.
"Better think, even someone who has immortality like a vampire or an elf would have wrinkles everywhere like a 60-year-old old man if it had gone 1000 years. Man himself has the fastest aging and short lifespan, he cannot be Human. You said he was over 10,000 years old, which means he should have been an old man from another race who was loner and wanted to spend his old age in a fantasy world. This place is very cool and quiet, it is perfect for someone who is retiring. If I were old, I would also find a place like this to isolate myself from the world."
"But he's not what you imagined." Long Yun was already sweating coldly.
"Right, at first I thought he was a handsome man who fell from the sky like a riding prince in a fairy tale. After a rethink, he saw me grow up for a few years. At first I thought, he should be ten or twenty years older than me after looking at his back then. But reality far exceeds expectations." Xie Ran looked disappointed.
"Master—"
"Originally you know, I'm a good-looking guy. I have seen many handsome men in the world my entire life and ranked them. At first I expected your Great Master to be one of them, but hearing of his age being too old. Maybe if I meet later, I call him grandpa out of respect." Xie Ran put on a mocking face. If it was like this, wouldn't a certain Great Lord be lured by it?
"Master ...." Long Huo called out in a soft voice. She wants to cry!
"Yes?" Xie Ran turned his head towards Long Huo who was becoming listless in the form of a Dragon. He squinted.
His gaze was directed at the man next to him who looked like an iceberg. The pale man was dressed in white, his black hair was like satin and he was so tall that Xie Ran felt like a child.
But the one thing that made Xie Ran surprised, his face was too handsome to rank! It had no qualifications because it was too handsome!
Xie Ran felt his heart churn until he had a sudden hiccup, he closed his mouth spontaneously.
He had seen many handsome men but had never seen such a handsome man. How to give it value? Really, very inhumane. If Xie Ran did not see handsome men often, he would definitely have a nosebleed.
"Yun Long? You become human?" Xie Ran thought that it was Long Yun. Dragons are always good looking when they become human. He didn't expect to see it.
"Master ...." A long Dragon flew in front of the waterfall. Xie Ran turned his head to look at Long Yun full of surprise. Since when did Long Yun move the place to the front of the waterfall?
Then the man ....
"...."
How can!
How can it be that handsome!
Xie Ran did not expect the 10,000-year-old man he thought was a man with a face full of wrinkles to be handsome without wrinkles, he never thought it would be that handsome! This world is fantasy!
Xie Ran knew that the man was ageless. But he did not expect such a result. Why is the world unfair to him? He just wanted to disappear from this world. Getting oxygen is the right decision.
The handsome man above average, the power above Long Yun who was the Heavenly Dragon, the incarnation of the iceberg, the pendant guard. Who was that guy in the end?
"When were you there?" Xie Ran asked doubtfully.
"Since you came." Her cold voice entered Xie Ran's ears making the girl completely freeze.
"...."
