“Ayy sis, this must be the first time your awareness left your body.” A green ball of mist squeezed out from the fog. “You’re currently in the state of lost awareness, so be happy you at least still have a ball of mist. Don’t worry about it, when the time is up, you’ll be back to normal.”
“What do you mean?” Yao Si stilled, suppressing her inner shock.
“You’re also a training customer of the celestials, right?” the green ball asked.
Yao Si nodded, remembering her ball status. She then swiftly asked, “I’m one, are you guys too?!”
“Of course.” The green ball bounced. “We were here before you to get the gift!”
Gift? That word sounded like toothache to her now!
“Is the Soul Eating Flag really the gift they mentioned?”
“Yea!”
“Where are we now?”
“Inside the Soul Eating Flag!” The green ball replied somewhat arrogantly while bouncing about. “When you first came in, didn’t you realize that my awareness is much greater than that of others? It’s best to train your mental strength here!”
She could indeed feel her awareness getting livelier, and the ability to exert it seemed much smoother as well, but…
“What about our bodies?” With their awareness gone, weren’t the empty shells of their bodies left outside?
“You don’t have to worry about that.” The green ball floated to the side, allowing a blue ball to take shape. “Come come, blue ball, you’re one of the celestials, you can explain it to this sister.”
Achem… The blue ball first cleared his throat. “Sis, you don’t have to worry, we celestials always ensure the best customer service. Inside the beginner guide, there is an automated protective function. Once your awareness leaves your body, the optical computer will provide a temporary storage space for your body,” he explained in a service-like manner. After a moment, he added, “Of course… the storage will be charged on an hourly basis, and it is linked to your bank account. If you would like to leave or if the account balance isn’t enough, the awareness will automatically return to your body.”
“…” You’re going to charge for this?!
The level up gift suddenly seemed like another of their money making schemes.
“All right, all right, there’s officially four of us now, let’s start!” the white ball rushed them impatiently.
“What?” Yao Si was an image of confusion. “What are we starting?”
The three balls took a corner each, with the green ball looking exceptionally excited. “Sis, since there is so much free time, why don’t… we all play some mahjong? We were lacking one player!”
“…” Excuse me?
“Sis, you have no idea how long we’ve been waiting for you.”
“Yes, yes, I’ve been in this horrid place for seven days,” the blue ball replied.
“What is seven days? I’ve been waiting for a month!” the white ball stated acidly. “After an entire month, you’re finally here.”
They cornered her so enthusiastically just to play mahjong? She face-palmed internally. Can’t you be more ambitious!
“What about the training?” Can you really be so lax?
“When the awareness leaves the body, you just have to get used to the feeling, there isn’t much you can do in that state,” the blue ball explained, his face mysterious. “Sis, you must not have heard of the game ‘mahjong’, right?”
