"I am not," Derrick replied. "It's true."
"How come you're here, then? And, what about Blacky?"
"I made a contract with Blacky. The only thing that transferred to this world is my consciousness. Unlike you who took over this body as a whole, I'm not. I simply cohabit into this body. A mere parasite that could control the body of Derrick Lee in any desirable way I want. And, I stayed in this world for about two years?"
Ryan glances at his system while raising his eyebrows. His gesture is indicating for White Ball to explain further about this phenomenal situation that Derrick experienced.

Another person's point of view/flashback. *** She is staring at the morgue with lifeless eyes. Her eyes are puffy and red. It's seemed that she had been crying this entire time. Several footsteps are approaching the morgue in a rush. The two boys then stopped as they saw her standing not too far from that place while staring into the horizon. They shouted something to her, but, like a deaf person, she could never hear their voices and their desperate calling. Her heart is dead alongside the corpse that laying listlessly in the morgue. Something warm is embracing her stiff body, and she finally reacted due to the sudden embrace of the two boys. They are doing group hugging out of nowhere. "Are you...alright?" One of the boys, with black hair and mesmerizing obsidian eyes, asked her in concern. His friend also staring at her with a worried expression.

A big, black, and doe eyes staring at her are the last thing she saw before darkness takes over her body. With a loud thud, Da Kyung bumped her head on something hard. She hissed in pain. "Oww..." Rubbing the bruise on her forehead, she opened her eyes. Bright light is blinding her sight momentarily. Da Kyung blinked her eyes multiple times to adjust herself to the sudden brightness. She felt sore all over her body. "Young lady." Someone approached her. Da Kyung turned her head, to the owner of the timid voice. Beside her, there's standing a female, not older than twenty years old, wearing a full set of maid uniforms. The female averted her eyes when she found her mistress is staring at her unblinkingly. "Who are you?" Da Kyung blurted out. The female is flustered due to her sudden question. "I am Melissa. Your personal maid."

Jjang is feeling uncomfortable. Its new host is an energetic young woman with a tendency to stuff her face into something soft and fluffy. She loves anything that overloading with cuteness, especially the teddy bear. (Host?) "Ah, so smooth! So fluffy! Look at this round belly! Omo?! Your soles also amazingly soft to touch! Muah! Muah!" Da Kyung smooching and smothering Jjang's face with her kisses. (Host!) Jjang snapped. It used its special skill, teleport. From Da Kyung's tight embrace, the system managed to escape and warily put a safe distance between it and its host. Da Kyung pouted. "Not fair, Jjang.

The cupboard is located in the special corner of the room, guarded by two surveillance cameras.

Ryan is doubting his ears. What? He is not mistaken, right? Fully cooperate? Jihun will? This man is too bold. Jihun ignored his father's surprised expression and Johanna's disbelief one.

Jihun is annoyed by the reporters' cameras flicking and flashing lights. Those bright lights are bothering him as he loathes the idea of being crowded by other people immensely. Ugh, these low and insignificant insects. How dare they brazenly flung their dirty body into mine and flocking around my side shamelessly?!"Sir! Please give us your comment!" A smartphone is shoved onto his sturdy chest. Jihun calmly reeled back his anger from bursting out due to this one reporter's bold action, as displeasure feeling is still visible on his handsome face.The male reporter flinched and reticently bowed his head. Jihun pats his chest, dusting away imaginary dust from his suit."Mr. President! Is the news true? Or is this slanderous action performed by the police is based on circumstantial evidence

"...Please, Ryan. I'm begging you." Detective Su's sincere plead is making Ryan questioned his bold action back. He had a soft spot in his heart for his senior. Ryan never listened to another person's word, much less for their begging, and even brazenly disobeyed his superior's order. Only for Tae Hyungnim, will he finally reconsidered his course of action."You're supposed to support my decision Tae Hyungnim." Ryan sighed. Their eyes meet, and Ryan could see his reflection in the older male's glassy black eyes. "I'm not the type to retract my words back. You know me since our university days. No matter how much you're begging me, I never stop. Nor will I change my mind. Besides Woon and Da Kyung, you know me the best. I am a stubborn person.""I don't want you to get hurt, damn it."

*Warning. Read at your own risk. Slight mature content. There were only three people inside the living room. Ryan and Hu Zhi Ming sat side by side on a big sofa while the house's owner sat on a single couch. He invited them for a drink. Two sets of tea were prepared in advance and placed in front of them. The steams were visible to the naked eyes. The sweet aroma of Chamomile tea dispersed in the air inciting saliva to drool. Ryan felt his throat parched. Before he knew it, he had already taken the cup and sipped out the content with gusto, completely forgotten that the tea was hot and steaming. Ryan coughed out and miserably spitting out the liquid. "Ah-Feng!" Hu Zhi Ming was a step too late in stopping him. He never realized that the man was too thirsty. He was oblivious of Feng Zheng's condition and unaware of his need. Hu Zhi Ming and Ryan were constantly moving for two hours, leaping up and down from one tree to another, before reac

They arrived in a secluded village, deep inside the mountain and surrounded by lush bamboo trees. The entry to the village is well-hidden behind the thick blanket of nature as cobwebs hang from one beam to another, creating the illusion of an abandoned city. Wild and long grasses covered the pathway, almost reaching their knees. It is a hassle to cross over the pile of over-grown weeds to step a foot on someone else's house. At first glance, the village seemed forsaken by humans. No sane people wished to stay inside a gloomy and deserted place, particularly one that lacked sunlight. The smell that wafted around was a bit disturbing. The incense smell was not the one that someone put inside the bedroom to help themselves fall asleep. Instead, it was the one used to make an offer to the dead. The thick and hazy smokes made their sight blurry and hazy. The scent induced numbness, causing Ryan to paralyze momentarily. He fell into a trap. He blinked his eyes multiple times, but what h

Ryan's heart was palpitating.The exhilarating feeling made him numb from shock, and he almost let out an excited squeal subconsciously.Ryan enjoyed this blissful moment.The world around him seemed to be in a frozen state, and the time had stopped moving.What kind of dream was this?He mindlessly pinched his cheek and flinched.The pain is real. The possibility of sleepwalking was not feasible. Ryan could no longer differentiate between reality and fantasy.No dream could be as realistic as the one he experienced right now.To think that such an unbelievable thing occurred to him right now had made him doubt himself.For sure, his soul had transmigrated into someone else's body. He also transmigrated into a world different from his modern setting world.Can anyone believe him?He was flying. He was indeed flying!It was memorable to mention such an absurd thing

No way. Is Long Yuan, Jihun? Ryan's clutched over Hu Zhi Ming's arm tightened. He had a war within his mind, redundant messy thoughts overflowed like a broken dam, and he started to doubt his instinct. Impossible. Such a thing is frightening! Hold on. Calm down. You needed to calm down first. He might be imagining it. Ryan tried to appease himself. All of this is an illusion. And a bad one at that. But, how could he accept that hoax when his subconscious reaction had told him otherwise. No matter how he tries to deny it, he cannot lie to himself. It was similar. It was the same feeling he got every time he and Jihun had their moment of encounter. There's no mistake about it. What kind of feeling does he get from this man? The answer is simple. It was the dreadful sensation he frequently felt when he went to stop Jihun's madness. It was so similar that he felt goosebumps all over his body. It was like

"Why did you cry?" Feng Zheng is crying, like a child, his eyes glistened with tears, and there's a trace of grievances within those wet pupils. Seeing him like this caused Hu Zhi Ming's steel heart to soften. "I'm sorry. Please don't cry." He was distressed when he saw Feng Zheng's grief-stricken eyes.He never once saw him cry miserably as this, not even when the late Emperor and Empress passed away. Right now, these heart-wrenching cries sounded very sorrowful, as if the whole world had wronged him.Feng Zheng curled even further, deliberately avoiding any skin contact with him. If he can drill himself into the sofa, bury himself inside it and never come out, he would like to do that. Nevertheless, he couldn't.Hu Zhi Ming felt perturbed. He didn't know where to put his restless hands. Hu Zhi Ming wanted to coax and console him and drive the misery away from Feng Zheng's heart. Yet, he is unable to do that. The victim refused him, evading his touch and affect

The end of the flashback.Ryan wanted to vomit on the spot. He felt dirty. As if his body got covered by the filth that stubbornly stuck on his body no matter how hard he scrubbed it.The original had stayed pure for his fiancee, believing in the beauty prospect of marriage. Yet, his innocence got robbed from him in the hands of a beast disguised in human skin. His dream, ruthlessly shattered to pieces like a broken mirror.For him, sex is nothing because every human has needs and desires. It's a human's basic instinct. But with the consent from both sides. If one side is unwilling, it will result in rape. He despised rape. He had seen many scenes in which all the victims had forced themselves to the verge of insanity. Some even committed suicide.Out of nowhere, Ryan felt something creeping from below to upward, starting from his toes. The unpleasant sensation crawled all over his skin, eliciting goosebumps to erupt. And, the tidal of turbulent emotions

*Mention of rape and suicide. Read with caution. Ryan curled on the sofa, both knees and arms folded in apprehension. He resembled a wounded animal who had been preyed on by a predator and forced to some corner, desperately protecting his dear life. He evaded Hu Zhi Ming's eyes and looked pensively to the floor. For a moment, he gave an impression of a wronged child that just got scolded by his parent. Hu Zhi Ming's eyes darkened. He cornered the petite man until his back hit the back of the sofa, caged in between his two strong arms that heavily pressed onto the armrests. He didn't leave any exit for Feng Zheng to retreat. If he left even one opening, Feng Zheng would treacherously avoid him again, and then, they will face the same stalemate. Feng Zheng su

Both of them tacitly move to the area behind the partition.Ryan's eyes swept over the tall man that obediently followed him like a chick trailing behind the mother hen. He said nothing but his burning gazes made his scalp numbed.Aigoo, if the look could kill, he might be underway to his death right now. Those scorching stares could even melt the hard steel into a puddle of liquid. That's how intense his gazes was.Can you stop looking at him like that?! Had it been Senior Su in front of him right now, he would already stab this person's eyes! He might even gauge the eyeballs out!However, the main point is he did not know him despite the man having the same face as his senior. He better put an appropriate distance between them before deciding what to do next.Overall, the man identically resembled Su Tae Hyung. The only difference was the color of his eyes, which gleamed with a luster of a gem, as beautiful as the blue sapphire stone. And, unlike

Ryan is sitting crossed-legs on the big bed. With his folded arms and he tilted his head, drowning and musing himself with an endless stream of questions without answers. He lifted his head and once again surveyed this unfamiliar bedroom. Where is this place? Did he transmigrate? Or was this merely a dream, and he was the only premier spectator? Even so, how come the dream setting is so realistic? That he doubted his five senses and kept pinching his thigh to force himself awake. Inevitably, he rubbed his bruise's thigh with a sullen expression. The skin is too delicate and fragile-looking, like a porcelain doll. Judging from his expensive outfit, lavishly furnished bedroom, and his exquisite appearance, he didn't think this original body's identity was a simple one. Was he a young master from a prominent and distinguished family? Also, why couldn't he unlock the hidden memories that lay safely within his mind? The memories are just within his grasp.
