The ugly, hidden resentment lurks within you. You must be very careful; otherwise, once it overwhelms you, you will fall into the abyss forever, unable to escape, awakening the deepest fears from within your heart...
“Xi Meng, don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid.” On the road, White Soul kept repeating this phrase. It was the first time I saw him show such an expression, a mix of tension and fear. He held my hand tightly, and his anxiety affected me as well.
“White Soul, are you scared?”
“Ah? No... I’m just reminding you to be careful.”
“Is that so? But you don’t seem to be in a good state right now.”
“Xi Meng, stop for a moment.” White Soul suddenly halted, placing his hands on my shoulders with a determined gaze. “Tell me your resolve. The resolve to find Silver Moon!”
“I am resolute; I’m not afraid of dying for this!”
“What if it’s something more terrifying than death?!”
I began to realize that things might not be going well. Frowning, I still answered firmly, “I’m not afraid. No matter what happens, I will find Silver Moon!”
White Soul still seemed tense; he simply lowered his hands and said slowly, “Go ahead. This time, I cannot accompany you to Fifth Layer.”
I was about to ask why, but I noticed that White Soul looked unwell and was desperately hiding something.
“Okay, I’ll go.” I believed that White Soul wouldn’t let me go without a reason, so I chose not to question him.
"Wait!" White Soul suddenly grabbed my arm.
"Xi Meng, remember, I will always be nearby to protect you, okay?"
"Hey, White Soul, what's wrong? It's fine, don't worry, I'll be back to meet up with you soon."
"Just be careful."
"Got it, I'll go and come back quickly, heh heh."
I laughed and said goodbye to White Soul before running into the Fifth Layer.
No! This feeling suddenly became very bad, extremely bad. My body stiffened and I couldn't move a step. I didn't even know what I was afraid of; I just felt a pair of resentful eyes staring at me. I couldn't see it, but I could truly sense its presence, very close, right beside me.
"Who is it? Show yourself!"
"Woo, woo, woo. Huh, huh, huh—" No one answered, only a sound that resembled both sobbing and exhaling. But it was right next to my ear.
"Listen, I don't have time to play games with you!"
"Hehehe, hahahaha..." Then came another round of laughter, eerie and chilling.
"Come out! If you have any tricks up your sleeve, face me openly. Let me tell you, you can't scare me!" Yet deep down, I still felt uncertain.
"Hiss, hiss, hiss." This time it sounded like a beastly warning.
"Alright then, no matter who you are, I want to say that I am a companion of the Moon. I'm here to save him, so I don't want to hurt you."
I thought that by expressing my stance, the other party would let go of their wariness towards me. Unfortunately, I made a fatal mistake. At that moment, I believed that all the guardians of the Main Palace were friends and family of Silver Moon, but I was wrong; there were also enemies.
Suddenly, a sharp pain struck my face as a deep wound sliced across the right side. I didn't need to touch it to know it was severe.
"Who are you? What do you want?!" At that moment, I felt lost because I sensed an extremely malicious aura emanating from it, along with an indescribable resentment.
On the surrounding walls, a blood-red mark slowly appeared, gradually forming a character: "Death." Streaks of blood ran down the wall, looking even more ferocious.
"You and Silver Moon will die..."
Then more and more words appeared, and my breathing became rapid. I didn't understand what it was that could affect my heart and evoke my deepest fears.
"Hahahahahaha..." The chilling laughter that made my scalp tingle echoed again, continuing endlessly, like a cold sneer from a clown.
At that moment, the world spun around me; all I could see were the characters for "death," densely packed. It felt like being surrounded by an inescapable prophecy, driving me to the brink of collapse and suffocation.
My hands clutched my head tightly as if something was drilling into it. My mind was a chaotic mess, and my nerves seemed to be stretched to their limits. I felt something beginning to snap—more and more—until my brain was engulfed in darkness. It wasn't fainting; rather, something had brutally severed my connection to the outside world. I fell into a state of chaos, completely unaware...
