Chapter 57: Healing potion
Chapter 57: Healing potion
Gulp gulp
Feng Yu Chen chugged down the tea. The tea tasted like ambrosia since Inori is the one personally attending to him. Not even the most bitter drink can change his mind.
Please slow down, there is no reason to choke on the tea when there are still more left.
Inori said.
Mm
Feng Yu Chen nodded.
Why dont you go back to rest? Youve been up all night I am sure it must have been tough. My left arm might be injured but I can function just as well with my right arm unharmed, leave the rest to me.
Inori shook her head.
No, its fine. I can go days without sleep due to work. This much is manageable. Also, youre not alone anymore, I am here for you. No matter what, I am not going to let you shoulder the burden by yourself.
Feng Yu Chen shook his head while laughing.
Ahaha, youre going to make me the happiest man on earth with your words. Its cool though, just go to sleep. If you get sick I am going to get worried. I mean it, this is fine now close your eyes
Inori looked into Feng Yu Chens eyes and she nodded.
Okay, you should rest as well
Feng Yu Chen watched as Inori left the room. After confirming her departure, Feng Yu Chen smiled since Inori is gradually warming up to him. At least, he has a place in her heart. He believes that Inori is going to open her heart more and more to him, if so that would be perfect.
Looking at the ceiling, Feng Yu Chen felt that its a pretty good feeling to try and conquer a girls heart. This warm and fuzzy feeling is a fresh breath of air for him.
Yo, I see youre up. Inori cared for you the whole night you were asleep. You lucky guy, how are you feeling? Is your arm still hurting?
Argo came into his room and he smacked Feng Yu Chens shoulder.
Arsh you jerk, I am an injured person, reduce that brutish strength of yours will ya!
Feng Yu Chen rolled his eyes at Argo.
Oh, my bad. Ahaha, I dont think I have introduced myself to you before. I am Argo, my specialty is knife handling and wrestling. I can teach you some wrestling techniques if you want. Boy, that was some battle you had. But, thanks for putting your life on the line like that. It could have ended so much worse for us, cut down before we can achieve anything.
Argo sat down on the chair while drinking a cup of tea he snatched from the coffee table.
No need, I remember what I did. I would rather not think about it I have killed people, lives were taken
Feng Yu Chen lowered his head, he clutched his blanket in terror. Hes faking it since he has to make it convincing that this is the first time he killed people. Its impossible for Shu to accept that he killed people without suffering a bit of mental anguish. Feng Yu Chen had qualms when he killed his first zombie, the zombie was a human and to kill what was once a human was a hard trial for him.
Well, it is inevitable that lives were taken. We are putting our lives on the line to drive these bastards out, we are not expecting a fancy tea party. What I am saying is that you need time to get used to this.
Argo patted Feng Yu Chens shoulder.
Slap
Feng Yu Chen pushed away Argos hand with a slap.
You didnt go through what I went through, you can never know my feelings. Its because you guys dragged me into this! I could have lived a normal peaceful life! You people changed my life! I dont want to stay here with you people!
You
Argo is surprised that Shu would respond like this. He assumed Shu would be ready to join their faction. He hadnt expected Shu to behave like this, he celebrated too early.
Bam
Gai entered and he grabbed Shu by his collar.
Ouma Shu! You disappoint me, I didnt expect you to turn out to be such a wuss. Alright, return to your normal life! We dont need you here!
Fine! I dont want to stay with you crazy assholes. I-I dont want to kill anyone anymore
Shu got up from the bed and he ran out the door.
Shu, whats wrong? Where are you going?
Inori heard the chatter and she came out of her room with a worried look.
With his back facing Inori, Feng Yu Chen trembled.
I-I dont know anymore. I-I killed people, so many people. I-I dont th-think I can do this anymore. Inori, sorry I dont think I fit in here
Inori noticed Feng Yu Chens trembling body. She felt Shus internal struggle and mental torment. Hes a kind person who didnt want to kill anyone, he just wants everyone to get along.
Sorry, I wanted to protect you be-because I like you. Inori, I ru-rushed out for your sake. If-if only theres no GHQ, no Funeral Parlor, we can make beautiful films out of beautiful sceneries. We could watch that fantastic version of the world just the two of us
Shu said in a crestfallen manner. He started heading towards the exit while hugging his bandaged arm.
Shu
Inori cried out. She wanted to chase after him but recalling that Gai is the one who gave her life, she cant just ditch him. But, what is this pain she is feeling, she had never experienced this sensation before. Shu said he fought against terrible foes despite his reluctance because he liked Inori. Hes really warm and this is the first time she has been treated with such warmth.
Feng Yu Chen left Funeral Parlors base with a slight grin. His acting paid off, he is silently praising himself for being such a good actor.
Feng Yu Chen left the base to return the plot as close to the original plot. If he pulled this off, the secondary quests can upgrade his void power. After evolving it to the tenth stage, it would probably be so strong he wouldnt have to worry about protecting Inori anymore.
According to the plot, Samukawa Yahiro (a club member of the film club, Shus classmate, and a friend) who turns out to be a dirty snitch that caused Shu to be arrested on terrorism charges. After that, Funeral Parlor will conduct a prison break to rescue Shu and Kido Kenji (Funeral Parlor member arrested by GHQ due to terrorism).
Completing that series of plotline would probably result in unlocking the next stage of his void power. If he kept going like this, his void would be strengthened to the limit at which point Feng Yu Chen reckons that his void power, Bandit Hand can devour all the Apocalypse virus and would be instrumental in saving Inori.
Early in this series, it would be fine if he went along with the plot. Towards the end of the series, his void power would no doubt have strengthened a lot, so strong that excluding Yuu the Envoy of Daath (true antagonist, quite possibly the strongest boss) he can beat any opponent. His goal to get his void power to the tenth stage is so that he can fight against Daath and absorb all Apocalypse virus.
After completely leaving Funeral Parlors premise, Feng Yu Chen bought a slow healing potion from Infinity Shop. Its a tube with green fluid in it. Since its probably for ingestion purpose, Feng Yu Chen opened the cap on the tube and he downed the liquid. It tasted really bitter but the moment he drank the potion, he felt a warm sensation inside. The wound on his arm started closing. After removing the bandages, the wound had already disappeared without any trace. Theres no scar or anything, the effect of the potion didnt stop there, he could feel the potion taking away fatigue from his body. This is simply amazing!
