Right now, both were totally burnt out from the emotional episode. Shutting down just for a little bit, they let their bodies sag, melting into each other as their muscles lost their tension. In that embrace, they felt their worries lose their previous sharp sting. He gave her the respect of an equal but cradled her like a cherished child. Her concern hugged his skin like a latex suit, bringing a sense of stoic calmness; a gateway to newness and a different path.

After plundering her mouth for all she was worth, his hoarse voice echoed in her ears, “I’m sorry for the worst welcome home party.”

Bing Shi suppressed the tornado which was brutalizing her far beyond a recoverable point, hiding the evil in her eyes behind a small act of survival drive, “It was not the worst. The beginning, for example, was bittersweet, very much like our relationship.”

Her pathway to Godhood began with a sugary giggle as he diluted the poisonous toxins from her body. He let his warmth pour sunshine into her soul, helping her switch back to her better self at a faster pace.

On the surface, she was joking and lighthearted, but she just pulled him into her grim vortex and, with each jibe, he could feel her cold winds clipping cruelly at his core.

Pressing his forehead against hers, he bit his inner cheeks until he tasted the familiar taste of iron as she threw her inner mask away. She was showing herself as she really was, with the illusion down, he felt the hurt within her being, “I’m glad you kept your promise.”

.....

“Which one?” She traced her hands under his shirt, clawing at his firm abs while her teeth sank into his neck. Maybe if everyone felt the pain and sadness she did, the world would become a better place.

The corner of his lips twisted into a half-smile as his adorable snake of a wife easily reduced his emotional damage by inflicting physical trauma onto his body, “No matter what, you will always be my good girl promise.”

Xuan Mu finally visited the impatient soul within his space after about a week of hugging sessions with his wife.

The place looked just like their last apartment. The spectacle outside of the windows was no different from Pujing city because of the billboards plastered onto the front and sides of buildings that showcased Silika Lin’s face. Smiling at passerby with her perfect teeth while the citizens moved about as if they were all capable of free, cognitive thinking.

But if one looked closer, one could see that this was not the case. In their eyes, there was no shine that belonged to humans, as if they were all locked in chains. Their eyes were super dull. These people weren’t humans; they were all replaced by an army of systems that disguised themselves in a human’s skin. They were like NPCs inside of a game: they followed a pre-programmed pattern.

Xuan Mu created a quasi-real world in his space by using his accumulated knowledge from the tattoo (The HQ’s gift) and the worlds he visited. Far from all, he also injected this world with the modified non transmissible zombie virus, to give all the bodies without a soul supernatural abilities. To protect this place against a certain ‘God of Misfortune’, many countermeasures had to be implemented.

To be able to afford all of this, Xuan Mu had to work his ass off without taking any form of rest. Even after gaining such immeasurable power, he didn’t dare to slack off and continued to expand The HQ’s domain. There were billions of other gifted souls, and he had to prove that he was irreplaceable.

“Daddy!” The little toddler automatically reached his hands towards his daddy’s pants and began to tug at them like a protestant during a riot. What took daddy so long?!

The little stinky bun raised his head to continue his protest, but the thing he saw shut him up. Since when did Daddy have two heads and a pair of angel wings?

Xuan Mu walked to the middle of the living room and placed Bing Shi on the couch. Clutching onto his pants, the little boy followed behind him curiously.

Afraid to blink, Ying Xiong refused to pull his gaze away from the cool-looking lady.

Bing Shi outstretched her arms towards the boy who seemed to erase her existence from his memories, “My cute little babyyyyy, let’s show daddy what a real reunion should look like!”

“Mommy?!” Eyes suddenly brimming with tears, the little boy crawled up her legs, burying his face in her chest, “Mommy! Mommy! Mommy!”

“I missed you too,” Bing Shi caressed his back while listening to his grievances, “Did anyone bully you? Daddy did? Really? He dared to do that to you? How shall we punish him? Let him sleep on the floor and order him to clean up your toys? You want him to buy a pizza for you? Alright, mommys got you.”

“Mommy, mommy, mommy,” Ying Xiong stuck to her for dear life. As expected, his mommy knew him the best!

“Wife, our son bullied me too,” Xuan Mu wrapped his arms around her shoulders in an uproar, burying his head in her green flocks, “He constantly spits out the food I prepare and always accepts sweets from strangers.”

Bing Shi poked the little guy’s back, “Is that true?”

Ying Xong wiggles here and there while thinking hard about the answer.... Well, he wasn’t exactly guilt-free, but still, he shook his head adorably, “Mommy...” Of course it was not true.
