Third person's pov
Closing his eyes Wei Ying took a long sigh, when he open his eyes again they were red and void. He asked in deep threatening tone...
"Who are you?
I don't even know you... who gave you the right to discuss about me and my future?
Just because you bring my consciousness back, it doesn't mean YOU CAN DO AS YOU PLEASE.
You are urging ME to choose, why? What do..
YOU// gain from this?
Who gave me this wish?
If youuu.... don't wish to die speak" The red in eyes have now became more prominent and the void has long turned into an abyss with tornadoes swirling in it. The killing intent was oozing out of wei ying. He spoke again " Have you taken me for a fool....I won't choose just anything..explain or die".The angel put his hand cautiously on wei ying's shoulder, trying to calm him. He authoritatively spoke " Wei Yjng don't let your thoughts to lead you, try to calm youself take deep breaths you are still unstable emotionally, mentally and spiritually...your soul is still not fully mend, don't use your powers without thinking your soul will not be able to handle it. Whatever you want to know I will answer. Just keep calm my child...calm, only then I will be speaking."
Listening to this the Grandmaster subsidized some of his power and keep looking at other person with hawk eyes.The angel spoke again this time in mellow voice " My child I am a keeper of this void named 'Kòngbái de*' it is beyond the space and time you know of. Here 'the space' is the time.... several timelines, different planes are originated from here expanding and dividing, creating and destroying, endlessly. You can think of this place as tree trunk and every thing is roots, branches leaves etc. From this place we can look all over the universe but can't interfere. Whoever is going to reach this place is always pre determined. His/ her/ it name appear in 'hall of galaxy globe'. This is not just a place to eternal life but also serves as prison for those who are send here with binding of element rope. This element rope decide their level and type of prison ment. For those who do not come as will appear in a shimmering bud....and as the bud open they appear in their soul's true form. Most of them appear as flower, animal, birds etc. Only few appear in human form, who will be either serving the god above or live their live blissfully as keeper. Only millions of year souls arrive here. I am 'Jiāo shuǐ shíjiān' I was the third last around 2 million years ago. After that only criminals have been sent here.
But your soul reached here on its own. Your name never appear in the hall. You are mistakenly bought inside the dome. Your time was not ripe yet. You died before your time.
We can't return you there we can only grant you a wish since you died a day early because of our mistake. Kindly accept our offer child. We do not have any ill intentions. We will even keep nurturing your soul till you go back to your time.Wei Ying calmed after listening the explanation and asked who is 'we'. "It is me and my water bird my child. I can't let anyone know about this it could lead to chaos. I don't think that you want your loved once lifes to be turned upside down or for their soul to vanish from existence because of this incident?" Taking a pause keeper continued " You just have to make a wish, and you will be bound to not to tell about this to any other soul as long as you are here, and the bond along with the memory about what happened here will be erased from your mind once you will return to earth.
Now the choice is yours what do you want to choose. Whatever choice you make will have impact on you and the one you loves, so choose wisely my child. You have recovered now, we have to act soon otherwise I will not be able to handle this situation as well as help you. Consequences can be drastic.
I am calling for my power once its all gathered you have to make a choice". With these words keeper closed his eyes and started chanting and drawing symbols on white space in air. Which started shining and connecting to each other and several oval lines came out of the symbols creating a shield.
Atlast keeper asked of wei ying of his choice.
__________<
[Meanwhile wei ying pov]I am terrified to choose anything. Since now I understand what it could result in. And no matter what this watchdog speak of I don't trust him a bit. But his actions speaks that it is truly urgent, and my heart begging me to not take a risk of not choosing anything. So I am considering the first three options, which are all tempting but only an idiot will think that any other options are better from third one where I can return to my time line and also I can try to change the past. But something is amiss. Wait....
-I don't how much back I am going in time.
- I don't even know for how long.
- with such bad memory how my past self remind the clues.
- where I am going to leave them.
- everything aside how the fucking I even know what time will it be on earth. And weather I will be asleep or not.
- And what will happen if I fail uhhh... If possible can I kill this fuck of a mage.. who didn't even thought there is a need to explain me these things and I don't no since how long he is just asking me to choose... choose ....choose as if it is a choice between hawthorn sticks.And no chanting mantras not even looking at me, now how am I even goona ask him. I must try to shake him only then.....wow wow wow what what is this a fully functional sheild has been created. We are going to perform now without any details. I look at him anticipating and again he is looking at me with this same questioning look. I sighed and said I chose 3rd option he nodded and asked "age-day-time" I told him 4-winter-anytine he nodded his head again in understanding and started puliing the shield lines to create a passage (as in cover photo). I shouted my question at him how am I going to leave the clues. He gave me a pendant and asked me to leave my clues in this, and told me.....
In whatever form I wish to leave the clue this pendent will take its form. He asked me to place my hands on his torso...while his were placed behind my head. Atlast he repeat the conditions for me " You have one chance of five minutes according to earth's time, 13 clues to leave, don't reveal future, don't take too long and be back on time, I don't want you to be lost. Good luck my child. I hope you have a fruitful trip to past.......
A whirlwind like force took me to_ _ _ _ somewhere.
Due to long roller-coaster ride my head was buzzing and my senses are not clear. As I gained a bit of hearing I heard a sound of woff.... followed by several woffs, as I got reminded of what it could be possibly...all of my senses cleared and I found myself running towards a tree hole. Behind me another shadow entered and held me tight in embrace. As I got to register what is really happening and who this person really is. I understand how hard it is going to be for me and why I needed a good luck and warning to return soon.........Vocabulary
