Chapter 337. Myne's Tale: From Fog to Clarity
"It wasn't easy. I wandered through that desolate, foggy expanse for months, completely alone. The loneliness almost drove me mad. I had given up hope, seeing no way out... Then, I encountered my mother..."
"WHAT?!"
Maya shot up from the bed, her eyes wide with shock. Grabbing Myne's shoulder, she stared at him with intensity, if next moment he dared say it was just a joke, Myen definitely wouldn't have been able to save his remaining bones.
"In a dream, Sis. Let me finish first, don't get so excited. You and I both know she can't return," Myne gently spoke while holding Maya's soft hands. He knew how much Maya admired his mother.
Although he didn't want to tell everyone that his parents helped him twist through dreams, but if he wanted Maya to willingly help him train his hidden power mentioned by his mother, or tell something about their hidden past which he had no clue about, then naturally he had to do it.
Otherwise, with Maya's character, she might not reveal anything, saying that he is too young and might recklessly throw himself into more trouble. As for when he grew up in her eyes, maybe when he had a few little Mynes running around the house?
After Myne poured cold water on Maya's excitement, he coaxed her a bit and laid her back down on the bed so he could enjoy the wonderful sight, which he had missed God knows how many times in the past few months, before continuing... Stay updated with empire
"That dream was very weird. I turned into my younger version, and Mother woke me up and brought me to the kitchen for breakfast. There, I also saw teenage Big Sis, who was about to go on a mission. Then we talked about some random stuff.
By the way, at that time, most of my memories were locked, and I only had memories of my 5-year-old self, so I didn't know if I was dreaming or if everything around me was real."
However, for some reason, Mother seemed to know my situation very well, as if she already knew that she was dead, I'd grown up, had a wonderful family, and desperately needed someone's help. After a brief chat, she told me I already had the power to deal with my situation, but I just didn't know how to use it. That power was called..."
"Essence!"
Maya interrupted Myne again, throwing out Myne's hidden power in front of everyone bluntly without hesitation.
"It seems you know about it very well, Sis. Can you tell me why you never mentioned or taught me about this?" Myne asked softly, so as not to irritate Maya, who didn't seem to be in a good mood.
Not only that, but almost every undead and vengeful spirit present in the town as if gone berserk mode rushed toward me crazily."
"So after thinking for a few seconds, I jumped into that dark hole hesitantly. Anyway, I don't have any other option. However, what greeted me at the other side was something that shook me from the core.."
Can anyone guess where that dark hole sent me?" Myne asked with a smirk, which was disgusting enough thanks to his injured pig-like face and panda eyes that Sylphy literally had to avert her eyes and look at the carpet as if she suddenly became interested in it and trying to figure out its production method.
"Don't beat around the bush and tell us directly; we don't have the entire day to waste around you," Aisha directly blew away Myne's playful mood, dealing him a few dozen points of emotional damage.
"You guys are no fun. Fine, let me tell you... I woke up in my real body!"
..."
There was a moment of silence and confusion in the bedroom. Everyone was like, "I look at you, you look at me, we both looked at others," and became more confused. The bewilderment deepens with each passing second
"Is this some kind of joke on which we should laugh?" Maya inquired, a frown etching her face. For a moment, she wondered if Aisha and Sylphy had hit Myne too hard, causing him to lose his mind. Perhaps he'd always been this nonsensical, they just hadn't realized it.
"I'm not joking," Myne insisted. "If I were, you'd all be laughing hysterically, instead of staring at each other in confusion. What I mean is, this entire time I've been trapped in a dream created by Alban and his strange machines.
When I blasted through that invisible wall and jumped into the hole, I actually woke up in the real world, where he'd imprisoned me in a bizarre cocoon-like pod filled with an odd liquid."
"Huh? Are you serious?" Maya exclaimed, disbelief echoing in her voice. "How is such a bizarre thing possible? And why would he want to lock you inside that thing and trap you in a dream? What's the benefit of doing that?" Her questions mirrored the thoughts whirling in everyone's minds, they were all looking at Myne eagerly, wanting to know what kind of weird answer he would give them next.
"Although I don't know the real purpose of that thing, after my investigation, I found that the machine can absorb people's emotions, vitality, and soul and transfer it into the body of the owner of the machine," Myne said seriously, hiding a lot of things, since such a powerful but dark gadget shouldn't come to light. Otherwise, people would always fear that someone would use it against them.
The machine's power is just too good, and it is very easy to attract unwanted attention if someone knows about it.
So after thinking for a while, he decided to keep this little secret to himself. When he became powerful enough to beat anyone who dared to mess with him, Myne would let his girls use it. As for others, go f*ck themselves, there is no such a thing as free lunch in the world.
