Storm was fuming in anger because of his own out of control actions. Just how on the world did he go insane like this? For a minute,he had forgotten everything around him. He had forgotten himself that moment. It was a pure paradise in a burning hell. It was a mistake. He took a taste from the forbidden fruit and now he couldn't stop himself from craving it.

When Heeseung said he was going out,he couldn't even make a sound fearing he would do something he would regret.

It took him a while to calm his heart down. Breath after breath,he tried his very best to take himself under his control.

When he got out,he found numerous shopping bags on the floor. From clothes, shoes, to accessories,everything was there. He silently took everything in before going to the living room.

Fortunately,he was not there. In the dining room,there was food waiting for him. Truthfully,he had no appetite but he needed food to heal himself. So,he started eating. After that,he went inside his room again. Without caring about all the shopping bags on the floor and bed,he sat down on the floor,legs crosses in a meditating position. When he started purifying mana,he noticed a small difference.

Yesterday he spent the whole night to purifying a pollen amount of mana but today,it somehow felt a little bit easy. Not much but it was still a difference. He remembered now,it happened this morning too. When Heeseung visited the room.

Also,he was with him whole day today. Does this have something to with Heeseung?

If it is the case,then doesn't that mean he cannot kill him yet?

And more importantly,he needs to keep him close to check what causes this. If there's an easy way to purify his meridians,then he wouldn't waste the chance. No matter what it is,he will take it.

He stayed in the same position for a long time when he heard the front door being opened. Storm did not move and stayed still. He still could not face Heeseung,not yet.

And then,he heard nothing. It seems like Heeseung had gone to his room to rest for the day. Storm opened his eyes with a sigh. He needed a little bit of sleep too. Staying awake would definitely exhaust his body.

Just as he was about to go to the bathroom to wash up,he heard a soft knock on his door. He did not open it but stayed still where he is.

"....are you awake?",Heeseung's voice came gently.

Storm hesitantly opened his mouth,"What is it?"

"You need to dress your wound tomorrow. Uh,I just wanted to say that I'll be taking you to the hospital tomorrow. Sunghoon can't seem to come and treat. He said he's busy but if we go there,he will treat you"

Storm looked down at his chest. "....fine"

"Okay. Good night,Storm"

Storm,"...."

After a second,he could hear Heeseung's disappearing footsteps.

In the next morning,Heeseung was surprised to see Storm in the living room,fully dressed,ready to go for the appointment. Heeseung also had just gotten ready as he was ready to head to the kitchen.
