Chapter 106: Miss Xiaoman

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

His body suddenly stiffened, and then he subconsciously touched his body. Ever since he transmigrated to the other world, be it during the day or when he was sleeping, he had definitely had a weapon beside him.

However, he did not touch it. He lowered his head and saw that he was wearing a soft hospital gown.

After a short daze, the vigilance and nervousness in his eyes gradually disappeared.

In its place were very complicated emotions.

Footsteps sounded in the corridor as he walked back and forth. The scenery outside the window was perfect. The sun was shining and the traffic was heavy. There was no white fog or curtain. Everything was as usual.

This was Earth, the city he lived in.

This was his… home.

The place he yearned for and wanted to return to in countless dreams.

He was back.

Moreover, he had lost nothing. Life on Earth, the order of civilization, the family and friends he cared about, everyone was fine, and this world was still the same.

The only change was him.

He was no longer the old him.

In just two days, Kang De’s life had changed greatly.

He had once determined that human civilization had been destroyed and walked towards the other world with the mood to start over.

However, he was hurt by the malice and selfishness of humans. The friends he trusted and befriended died one by one. His heart was crushed by sorrow and despair. He descended into madness and carried out ruthless revenge with the flames of anger.

His hands were stained with blood, and his heart slipped towards his beast nature. In the end, he protected the last trace of humanity in front of the danger and directly caused him to be cursed by the gods. At this moment, his madness and hatred dissipated. His life was about to reach its end, and he only wanted to die quietly in his hometown.

He had once been extremely crazy and desperate. When he hated and prepared to calmly walk towards the end of his life, he discovered that he had returned to the real Earth.

Everything he had thought he had lost was still here.

Just as he had said to Lost’s corpse when he left, fate was so magical. If he lost it in one place, he would obtain it in another. Who could say for sure how mysterious it was?

He silently pressed his chest.

He could sense that the curse power attached to his heart had long ceased to exist. Although he was already close to unconscious at that time, a realization flashed through his mind. Perhaps he could return to the real Earth because the remaining power of the god had played a role.

In other words, if he had cut open Hannah’s body when she was alive at that time, cruelly implanted the bomb in her body, and set a trap to directly injure Lost, the other party would not have had the chance to use the curse divine artifact, so Kang De would not have returned to his hometown because of this.

The reason why he stopped was not so much Cleveland’s admonition in the alley, but rather the last trace of Kang De’s humanity. The first kind act caused the knight’s death and Kang De’s madness. The second kind thought had almost killed him. However, who would have thought that the last light surrounded by the dark and crazy evil thoughts would become the opportunity to return home, finally calming his once sad and despairing heart?

One could not fathom fate.

Kang De silently held his chest and thought of that person. Even if he died because of this, that fool would probably not regret persuading Kang De to let the little beggar go.

He was such a person.

“This time, you really saved me…”

Kang De whispered, “Thank you. I’ll never forget you.”

At this moment, he heard a loud sneeze.

On the sofa bed in front of the bed, someone suddenly sat up and rubbed her nose. The bright sunlight shone on her beautiful face and loose hair.

She glanced at Kang De and was pleasantly surprised.

However, she became suspicious.

The girl complained.

“What’s with your enlightened expression?”

Kang De was first stunned, and a warm light appeared on his face.

He said softly, “Xiaoman, I’m back.”

“…”

The girl jumped up and ran over. She knocked on his head. “Beast, where did you go again?”

She sat down beside Kang De’s bed and sized him up. She said angrily, “What’s going on? I haven’t seen you for two days and you’ve made yourself like this. You almost scared me to death.”

—Two days.

Kang De’s heart skipped a beat.

Only two days had passed…

He was happy and sad.

He was happy that the time he transmigrated was only two days here. His disappearance was not discovered by anyone. After all, his father was working overseas and his mother had run to see him.

The sad thing was… he had really taken a long, long trip.

Such sorrow, loneliness, and agony could not be told to anyone.

However, it did not matter.

As long as everyone was fine, it was very good.

The girl noticed Kang De’s expression, or rather, she felt a flash of sadness. She looked at her childhood sweetheart close at hand and her heart trembled.

For some reason, she felt an inexplicable throbbing.

She was very familiar with Kang De.

Or rather, the two families were very close.

Their grandfathers were neighbors in the same village. Their fathers had entered university together and changed their fates together. They had entered the city together and become neighbors. In other words, they had been neighbors since they were young.

However, in the era when the two of them slowly grew up, the country began to develop rapidly. The tide of the era flipped. Someone who grasped the opportunity could ride the wind. The girl’s father was one of them. In just seven to eight years, the wealth, family background, and social status of the two families had a huge difference. The girl had become a rich young lady with billions in assets, but Kang De had always lived a simple life with his parents.

However, even so, the friendship between the two families that had begun in the previous generation had not been interrupted. Needless to say, the poor friend of the father and son would not be dilated by time and growth. This was because back then, Uncle Wang had decided to go start a business. The couple was busy, so he entrusted his daughter to his neighbor to take care of. The girl’s childhood and student life had always been inseparable from Kang De.

The two of them were extremely familiar.

Ever since they were young, Wang Xiaoman and Kang De had been best friends.

Therefore, the girl could sense that Kang De had… changed.

Although she could not tell where the change was, she could sense it.

Although she had only not seen him for two to three days and although they were best friends, she felt an inexplicable estrangement sitting beside Kang De.

It was as if she had not seen the person in front of her for a long time…

She said softly, “What’s wrong?”

Kang De smiled and said, “It’s nothing… I narrowly escaped death and kept my life, so I’m a little… open-minded.”

“So, what’s wrong with you?”

Wang Xiaoman suppressed the suspicion in his heart and said worriedly, “You are normally so energetic. Why did it suddenly become like that? Even the doctor can’t tell what’s going on…”

“It’s fine, it’s fine. I’m fine now.”

It was indeed the truth.

The curse disappeared, and his heart beat again. He felt that the state of his body was continuously recovering. He could sense the battle aura circulating in his body, could sense the mystery of the elements in the object his mental strength brushed past, and could also receive the feedback of his powerful body after being strengthened by the crystal.

He kept his supernatural power.

He was on Earth.

He had never felt so good.

Old Wang was still a little worried. “Do you want to do a full-body checkup?”

Kang De was stunned. “Did the doctor check me before?”

The girl nodded and said, “Yes, it’s only a few related checkups. He felt that it was very strange. He said that your body was very, very weak at that time. If it were anyone else, they would be on their last breaths, but your relevant indicators are still in the normal category and are even stronger than ordinary people, so it was very strange.”

Kang De roughly knew what was going on.

Because his body was very, very weak at that time, the results of the checkup were normal. Moreover, there were only a few checkups that would not have a huge problem.

In other words…

He shook his head and said, “I’m completely fine now. There’s no need to check.”

What a joke. He had already left the category of normal humans. If the doctor checked his data, he would probably be so frightened that he would doubt his life.

Kang De glanced at the furnishings of the ward. It was a single room, spacious, with a television and a separate bathroom. It should be the best single special ward in the hospital. He thought for a moment and said, “I don’t have much money in my card now. I’ll return it to you in the future. Don’t tell my parents.”

“Don’t worry, you were saved very quickly. The doctor said that he didn’t discover any problems, so I didn’t tell Uncle and Auntie.” Miss Xiaoman waved her hand and did not mention money at all.

She saw Kang De get up, pick up his clothes, and walk to the bathroom. She was a little worried and said, “Let’s do a full-body checkup. Money is not a problem…”

Kang De turned around and smiled at her. He said gently, “There’s no need.”

It was just a very ordinary smile and language. For some reason, it carried an irrefutable dignity and strength. Wang Xiaoman was speechless for a moment. When she returned to her senses, Kang De had already walked in.

The girl was stunned. Then, the suspicion in her eyes became stronger.

She felt a very strange feeling from Kang De.

It had only been two days since they last met. What was going on?

What had he encountered?

He had not completed the previous admission procedures and had to settle the discharge procedures. There were many things to do and it was very troublesome. Moreover, the attending doctor who heard the request expressed his objection.

However, to the evil capitalists, there was nothing that money could not resolve.

Old Wang’s family had a long-term service agreement with a health company and was an extremely high-quality client. All the processes of any physical examination, medical treatment, and other projects could be handed over to the employees of this health company to handle. It saved time and effort. They only needed to make a call and temporarily leave their identification cards and citizen cards in the ward before leaving.

Kang De and Xiaoman walked out of the hospital building side by side.

He looked at the blue sky and took a deep breath.

D*mn, the air on Earth was easier to breathe. This haze was really thick.

Old Wang took out his phone. “I’ll call a car.”

Kang De said, “Let’s walk back.”

“Okay.”

Therefore, they slowly walked by the road. The cars coming and going, the pedestrians, the tall buildings. Everything that he had been tired of in the past felt so new now. It was really good.

Old Wang said, “We have to thank the kind people who brought you to the hospital, especially the one who drove through the red light to send you there. They were originally going out to play, but they had to explain the situation in the end. At that time, I had to accompany you, so I could only call my father to help. The process went very quickly, but their rest day was wasted.”

“My father said that he was afraid that they would not accept the money, so he directly bought five years of top-notch customer service for their car. However, we still have to personally visit and thank them. It’s best if we buy some toys and gifts for that child, as well as the district security guard and an old uncle…”

The girl counted with her fingers.

Kang De listened with a smile and kept nodding.

There were many things to do.

It was better to say that even now, he had not recovered from this intense emotional turmoil. It was as if he was in a dream… He had actually returned to Earth.

He had many things to think about.

He had many decisions to make.

The past, the present, and the future.

Too many things had happened.

Everything was different from before.

Now that he was walking side by side on the street with Xiaoman, he discovered that he felt a faint sense of alienation. They were clearly childhood sweethearts who could not be any better and best friends.

However, he thought of that experience. Loneliness and sorrow, despair and madness, blood and death. He mercilessly executed his enemies and became even more evil and crazy than he could imagine. He used dark methods to fight back against the darkness and soaked himself in blood.

Such a person and such a thing could be called a murderer in any country on Earth, right? Unknowingly, his fate had changed drastically.

He even felt confused.

It was not that he did not know what he should do.

Instead, it was suspicion.

He wondered if the current him… still belonged here.

He returned to the district.

The guard who had helped yesterday was resting so they asked for the time of the shift and entered the district.

Kang De stopped in front of the Song Dynasty poems and was silent for a long time.

“What?”

Old Wang glanced at him. “Why are you interested in this again? Didn’t you always complain about this in the past?”

Kang De smiled.

The girl in front of him definitely did not know what he had done.

It was a very, very long story.

He only sighed.

What was civilization?

What could build it?

What could destroy it?

However, no matter what decision he made, no matter what he had to do in the future, no matter how he should live on Earth again… These were all things in the future.

He had the most important thing to do now.

After entering the elevator and rising to the floor, the door that had been broken by Old Wang’s axe had been changed. Capitalists were rich, and money represented efficiency.

In front of the door, Kang De turned to look at the girl.

“I’m sorry… can you let me be by myself for a while?”

He said softly, “I want to make a call.”

This was a call that was more than a year late.
