Prologue

The divine constellation is made up from seven smaller constellations. Each of these smaller
constellations appeared at a particular year, and only formed into the divine constellation once every
seven thousand years. The divine constellation stayed for seven years, and during that time, every kind
of seal is weakening. For many authorities around the world, it is regarded as the era of both chances,
and tribulations.

Earlier that year, a falling star appeared northeast. Almost half of the world could see it. For
many, it was regarded as nothing special, until they realized that the divine constellation this time
around, doesn’t stay for just seven years.

The sky is snowless but the land is white. Among the woods common seen in the north region,
can be heard the sound of commotion. If onlookers could see it, it almost looks like regular banditry is
currently happening on regular merchant caravans. But with the appearance of a supreme beauty from
inside one of the caravan, they will be forced to second guess.

Skin of white jade, a specimen of Russian supreme, this hell of a woman almost looks like a
celestial. People can but wonder whether what they are seeing is the legendary Snow Princess herself.
Even when she was currently bearing the “ugly expression”, her beauty absolutely can still topple
kingdoms! Onlookers will be so enchanted by her beauty that they would be late to realize that she’s
currently in the late phase of pregnancy!

“Don’t lie! There’s no way for mere bandits to be neck and neck with our guards, who sent you?!”

“Hehehe! Fine! Fine! You all would die here anyway, there’s no reason to hide grass from beef. The one
who sent me is the Prince Consort!”

“Bullsh*t!”

And the battle between the “bandits” and the caravan guards resumed.

It was very well expected that the attacker would be well prepared, but one thing they would
least expect is the degree of unwillingness from the “snow princess” from being captured. When all
hope seems lost, in the commotion she grabbed a knife from who knows where and stabbed it across
her belly with the intent of suicide and killing her unborn children in the process!

That should be the end of the story, until a moment later a bright light fells directly into the
womb! Everyone is blinded! When the bandits regained their vision, what they see is the failure of their
mission, the death of the woman.
Actually, the death of the woman won’t cause that much of a problem for the mastermind, as
long as no one knows. Yes, as long as no one knows. That’s why, they who realized that they are among
those that in the know, such as the “bandits”, would realize that they would be silenced! Dead! This
realization is what causes some of them to panic and retreat, but some of them got mad instead and
fight with increased slaughter!

“Awooo!!!” The flow of the deadly battle is once again interrupted. But now is by a third party, a
black wolf pack! Their number is in hundreds. No one survived, the guards, the bandits, even those that
has retreated long ago is being hunted down and killed by the wolves.

The commotion become silence, the white ground became reddish and purple. The ferocious
wolf pack suddenly became timid and docile, when a two meter tall black wolf appeared among their
midst. This monster approached the part where the corpse of the woman lied. It seems to stare at her
belly for quite some time…
Chapter 1

“Want me die, won’t you! Well, let’s see what happens then!” A boy seven years of age
grumbled on himself in the middle of the woods. He wore something made from both furs and cloth,
with short black hair that is messy but somehow looks good on him. If you see his appearance, you
would think that he is a tomboyish girl because of how beautiful he looks. Actually, if there’s no “that”,
you would well consider him to be her. He has white jade skin, a face that combines the best genetic of
western and eastern girls, and body that would turn normal men to pedophiles, and women to
shotacon. Also, among his black hair interspersed brown colors.

The boy is currently rummaging for herbs. In this early spring season of the north, the snow
would be thin enough to reveal what’s under, and thick enough to keep winter herbs from dying. “Lucky
for me I am a reincarnator, if not, I would be eaten by you before I could even realize I’m not even a
wolf!”

“This is nice indeed, first I got spatial storage, and then, I got crafting ability! It’s a pity though I
could combine only three things, at least for now. Yeah, b*tch, at least for now! Just wait until I could
craft beast-taming emblem, and we’ll see whose parent of whom! For now though, you should just be
content with this Affection-Increasing Potion.”

“Lucky for me the last game I played before dying is RPG, what happen if instead I played T-Rex
Runner? Well, better start moving my *ss, this matter involves my poor little life!”

This forest in the north is called the Wolf God Domain by the locals. It is infamous for its sheer
number of wolves, some are ordinary wolves and some are monsters. Monsters are things that have
formed a Monster Core by cultivating the path of Rakshasa. The one thing that is required for cultivating
in the path of Rakshasa is huge amount of Yin energy. Seven years ago, this particular forest was still
called the Forest of the White Snake. It was until something happened that made the wolf population
there exploded in the thousands, and the wolf monster population increased with it.

“It’s been two years already, I’ve been wondering why that old hag hasn’t fall head over heels
for me yet. Does the medicine nullified? Not strong enough? Well, if it doesn’t work, I should start
crafting and hoarding health potions and phoenix downs, it’s like they say, boss monsters can never
defeat premium members!”

“Eh! A corpse! I wonder if there’s a Corpse Eater eggs in there?” The boy found a mummified
human corpse buried in the snow. If he was still the one who lives in the modern world, he would be
fear stricken by now, but living with wolves for as long as he can remember, these kinds of gory scene
has been somewhat of a normal happenings for him. He started uncovering the snow to loot for items,
because dying in this forest usually was caused by wolves, he could find precious materials ignored by
the wolves.

“Corpse Eater eggs could be inserted with reincarnation potion, phoenix down, and when
inserted into the body, when the recipient died, the eggs will activate, and in turn activating the
reincarnation potion. It’s a pity that you shouldn’t find eggs in old corpses like this.” He grumbled while
looting the corpse. “Eh, a woman? So it’s a corpse of a woman! Ew, messy belly… Eh, messy belly?” He
feels almost thunderstruck by the sudden realization! At this point, whatever he was thinking was just a
speculation, but somehow, his heart shuddered when realizing the possibility! Somehow, he started
crying right there and then.

He still doesn’t know if his parent in this world was still alive or not, he still doesn’t know if the
corpse he just found was his own mother or not, or whether his father was also already discovered and
looted by him long ago, he just want to bury this particular corpse and remove this kind of thinking from
his mind. In this world, as long as he can remember, he has been alone. No father no mother, the only
“parent” he knows is a wolf who wanted to consume him in the future.

He already realized that his body contained massive Yin energy, that’s why he was allowed to
live here, to increase the power of the wolves. When in the future he became dangerous enough, or has
the potential to run away, he would be eaten. Three or four years ago is the first time he “woke up”
from the muddle-headedness of a baby, and since then he has prepared for anything to kept his poor
little life. To appear harmless, obedient, and stupid, but of course he can’t keep acting like that forever!

After drawing out a shovel (looted) from his spatial storage, he started digging. When he
finished, the ground almost look like nothing was buried there, it remains flat, with no sign that this was
a grave. It was to avoid attracting attention from the wolves. Also, during the digging when he calmed
down, he wondered why the corpse was whole, while usually wolves would eat any meat until only the
bones were left.

Why doesn’t he use the reincarnation potion you ask? In fact he did do it on some old corpse
some years ago, and it turned into undead. He hypothesized that it has to be related with how in some
game the soul will vanish after some time a character died. When there’s no soul, the character became
zombies when raised. That’s why he called the reincarnation potion “Phoenix Down”, because in fact it
can’t reincarnate dissipating souls.

Unknown to him, when he was distracted by the digging, burying and gloom, a thirty-meter long
white snake slithers and approached him! Just as he was finished, he unconsciously turned around and
they faced eye to eye! He was frozen in place!
Chapter 2

Before the forest was called as Wolf God Domain, it was called the White Snake Forest. One of
the ability of the snake is to curse anything that saw its eyes with “Petrification”. The victim does not
actually turn to stone, but is inflicted with increased cognition, so extreme is the increase that the
victim’s body became confused by it and frozen in place. The victim will see that the time around them
became very slow, crawl to a stop. It was like the moment before death.

The black wolf is the bane of white snakes, because black wolves have the “True Sight” ability. It
could bypass all kinds of mental attacks and illusions. Like fire and water, one overpowers the other. Yet,
like a sea of fire that suppresses a cup of water, when the mental attack is too strong, a true sight from a
weak black wolf won’t be enough. That’s why in this forest it was only around seven years ago that the
wolves finally overwhelms the snakes.

It was at that time that the boy was struck by a sudden epiphany, a kind of enlightenment. No,
in fact it was really Enlightenment! Enlightenment is a major event for a cultivator, during the course of
the event, the person will feel like he was being transported into a mysterious world, whatever he
wanted to learn he would find himself has the perfect materials for learning it!

If a pill concocter had enlightenment, they would find themselves in a room with all kinds of
herbs to mix and test. A doctor would find various kinds of sick patients and medicines. A cultivator of
fire magic would find a volcano with plentiful fire energy, so on and so forth. And better yet, one day
training under the effect of enlightenment is equal to one year training normally in the outside world!

Enlightenment can only appear to those who are lucky, and never appear twice on the same
person. Alas, the boy was in a critical situation! Without the ability to cancel the enlightenment, his
consciousness was brought to an unknown world, leaving his body to fate.

It was like a dream, except that everything feels real. Because the last thing on his mind was
how to survive the white snake, the early part of that “dream” was of his battle with the snake. He used
stone, shovel, stick, a sword, and anything as a weapon. Each time he loses, he came back alive. Every
time he won, he changed his style of fighting, or his weapons. He found out that he is better fit using
knives, so he started developing the fighting style of knives.

When he dominated the snake, another enemy appears. From wolves, men, sharks, eagles, even
octopus! Even the three meter wolf appears as his enemy. With each instance, he became faster and
efficient, killing with each slash. When that happens, his enemy number increases. When the number is
so much that knives became obsolete, he started using short-swords, double short-swords, swords,
double-handed swords, until the enemy number became like a tidal waves, he finally used gigantic
swords. Everywhere he swept, he produced hundred people worth of bones and gore.

He doesn’t even remember why he was here, or even the length of time, all he know is battle,
battle, battle and more battle, and how to increase his effectiveness and efficiency. All kinds of swords
he mastered, from throwing knives to blade of grass, even to the art of staring dagger and sharp tongue.
Meanwhile in the real world, it has been nine years. Nine years! What happened to the White
Snake Incident then? Well, the boss wolf saved him from the snake. The boy is precious for the Wolf
God Domain, so of course when he was out and about, the boss wolf has some way to observe him. The
True Sight ability of the boss wolf has been used on the boy long ago, with that, the boss wolf can obtain
eagle-eye view of the boy wherever he goes.

Enlightenment cannot be disturbed or the person will die. To protect the boy, the boss wolf
moved his base there temporarily. But if you consider that it’s has been nine years, you could say that it
moved there permanently. During this entire time the boy’s yin energy became more prominent, of
course the entire Wolf God Domain profited from that. But instead, the boss wolf expression became
increasingly ugly.

It was considering whether to keep the boy alive for longer. The boss wolf noticed that even
though the boss wolf’s progress in cultivation is increasing rapidly due to the Yin energy, the boy’s
strength continuously approached its standing. Several times already it opened its jaws to swallow him
whole. It’s like considering whether to wait for a chicken to lay more golden eggs, or ate the chicken
before it turns to a phoenix. But today, after nine years, when the critical moment appeared, and the
boy’s strength appears to be a fourth of its current strength, it attacked!

“Gfuuuh!!” The boy is thrown to a nearby tree and crashed. He coughed up blood because of
the effect of enlightenment cancellation. All pores of his body was dripped with blood, his internals
were in a mess. Without even knowing what happened, he died right then and there.

That would be it, if not because of the Corpse Eater egg he planted behind his ribs ten years ago.
When he died, the egg hatched and the reincarnation potion inside it activated. He came back alive! He
is the first person ever survives the backlash of enlightenment cancellation.

By popping up health pills refined seven times from his spatial storage, he stood up like his
death never happened. During that time, the boss wolf can only struck frozen in disbelief! This brat is
surely died a moment ago and suddenly he stood up with vigor just like that?! Just now the wolf realized
how dangerous this boy could be! So, without another delay, it attacked!

The wolf utilized its True Sight to move fast in the forest. With it, all spaces became like the back
of its paws. It seldom used its paws to attack, instead mainly using its jaws and wind magic. The boy
countered with whatever weapon is inside his spatial storage, from shovels, swords, spears, horse
whips, caravan wheels, blade of grass, anything. Yet, whatever he used, it somewhat could behave like
swords, cutting through every shrapnel, blocking wind blades and wolf’s teeth.

Yet, the four times difference of strength could not be ignored, even though the boy has the
advantage of health potions, he was severely defeated in speed. He was bitten into half and swallowed.
Chapter 3

That would be it, if not because of the Corpse Eater egg he planted below his tongue. When he
died, it hatched and the reincarnation potion inside it activated!

In total, he has three Corpse Eater eggs in his body; in front of his heart, below his tongue, and
in the middle of his eyebrows. The first was made from one layer of egg, the second made from two,
and the third made from three layers of eggs. That way, when the first one is hatched and activated, the
second one would still have one layer of egg left! That was how he made himself to have three lives!

The weakness of this technique is if he is annihilated completely or if all the eggs inside his body
are destroyed before he died. He also can’t place the eggs on his extremities in fear of creating a
doppelganger of himself. Also, reincarnation potion can only deliver him to the state of badly injured, it
can’t completely heal his wounds! So, he must immediately swallow health potion to restore his
condition back. Beside of those, with the ingredients he has in the two years of looting and gathering, he
could only produce four of those things, it absolutely can’t be made and use immediately!

Inside of the wolf stomach was dark, slimy and gross. Gastric fluid flowed from all pores of the
stomach, quickly filling half of the space. If not because of the health potions and his constant effort to
sweep the gastric juices into his spatial storage, he would be dead right there and then.

Just when all hope seems lost and his health potion supply is dwindling, he spotted pink shade
from one part of the gastric walls. “What is..? What the f*ck! Is it what I think this is?!” He tried to probe
that particular spot, and exclaimed, “Hahahaha!!! Heaven does love me! This is Affection-Increasing
Potion! I wonder why you didn’t get affected by it despite my two year effort of secretly inserting it into
your food. I even wonder whether you aren’t even female. So, it’s because you agglutinate it here!”

The gastric walls are thick and indestructible, but the accumulation of the poison potion appears
to be in the organ behind this very part of gastric walls. Without mercy, the boy placed his hands on that
part and pushed until he can feel the organ in the back, and used sword intent which he has learned in
the realm of enlightenment to appear behind the gastric wall and crushing it!

The revulsion caused by the sudden flow of Affection-Increasing Potion made the wolf vomit.
The boy was ejected immediately and started running off to the distance. He never looked back.

When he came to his senses, he was in a steppe. He knew that it was in the south of where he
came from because of the way the sun moved. “Wait, does the earth in this world really rotate from the
west to east and the sun from east to west??”

He continued to run, expending his stamina potion which he never used until now to get further
away from the raid boss “God Wolf”. This stamina potion has been hoarded by him since who knows
how long to prepare for the day when he escaped the boss wolf. And this is such day.
Now because he has some time to calmly think, he began to think how long have it been since
that weird experience of battling and warring. It seemed like a short moment, yet also felt very long. He
estimated that that was what Enlightenment was called, like what’s written on Chinese cultivation
novels. “So, is this a cultivation world?” But he quickly dismissed it, because for as long as he can
remember, the people being killed by the wolves were all western men. Western men usually appeared
in Japanese Isekai story!

He scratched his head on confusion, but quickly realized that his hair became long! “What the
f*ck!” Not only his hair long, but his body also became taller, and there’s hair in there! And there!
Strangely, there’s no Adam’s apple! “Am I already in puberty?! How could it be! How many years has it
been since I am seven years old?! Where’s my precious memory of childhood! Where’s my acting lewd
to mature ladies but permitted??” He feels somewhat lost. He feels like losing something precious, he
felt like crying…

When he was bored and unintentionally looked at the sky, there was a snow falcon flying there.
“How nice it is to have a falcon to ride. I won’t have to run like this and just fly to wherever I want. But I
guess such game-breaking flying mount can only be obtained at late-game, except for premium users.
Am I a premium user? If I am a premium user, that falcon up there will approach me and became my
mount!”

When he looked at the falcon again, it did approach him! Hey, but wait, it didn’t approach him,
it falls into him! “What the f*ck!” When he came to this realization, he opened his arms wide and tried
to catch it, but he severely underestimated its size!

“Gfuuh!!” The falcon falls into him spine first like a comet, the hit was harder than when the
boss wolf hit him for the first time. He was thrown almost thirty meter across. Luckily, there wasn’t any
tree to crash into right now, so he didn’t die this time. He even stopped on his feet, although bloodily.

When he calmed down, he examined the unconscious falcon. From the wound it suffered, it
seems that it was being fought and chased by something, and because of the wound and overexertion, it
falls from the sky. He decided to give it a health and stamina potion, in the hope that it could really be
his mount or at the minimum became friend with it.

Because his spatial storage can’t store living animals, he was forced to carry the unconscious
falcon on his back, luckily, he was strong enough. Maybe it was because it was a bird that its weight
doesn’t compare to its size.

Afraid of the oncoming attacker (of the falcon), he searched for a cave to hide temporarily. He
found a big hole not far away, widened its opening for a bit and entered with the falcon. He doesn’t dare
to rest because he still getting bad vibes about the wolf raid boss, and also just a moment ago he
realized that this hole was weird.

He reminded himself not to sleep, but unintentionally did anyway.


Chapter 4

When he came to, the class was already empty. The clock displayed the number three. It means
that it was not too long ago it was concluded. During this time, some student would still be in the school
for extracurricular activity.

“What a strange dreams.” He said. He stood up and approached the window. From there he can
see the students from both the social and natural science class playing football outside. Girls and boys
are cheering, there’s even a girl playing as the keeper. He acquainted with all of them; some were even
best friend with. It was like that for students in the final year.

He just dreamed attending university, died, reincarnated, died, reincarnated, died then live then
died and live again both times by means of some magical potions. Well, it was weird. Somewhat not
wanting to think about that, he hurried to the chess club.

What are you saying, games? In this day and age games are not invented yet. What year is it you
ask? Well, don’t know but doesn’t matter anyway. My head is muddled by these strange long dreams
about… What is it about? Yeah, about me reincarnated into a super-duper lucky prince, which
conquered the east at the age 7, conquered the west by the Fallen Bread Incident, having seven super-
duper beautiful guardians which are also my wives. Hey, wait, no, it isn’t that! But somehow I felt that
those things too have happened.

Hey, wait. True Sight!

It was in that time that he realized that he was inside an illusion! “What the f*ck! Luckily I
somehow learned how to use True Sight! I am still in the huge hole!” The entire thing about being
awoken in a class at three was an illusion. The falcon has gone to who knows where, and it seems that
the real culprit in this illusion will be revealing itself before long…

It was a huge centipede! It appeared from further down the hole, and it seems that this hole is
its lair! Unlucky for the boy, his true sight is not strong enough, he can see what is outside but he can’t
get out of the illusion!

Cold sweat appeared in his forehead, the huge centipede creeping closer and closer, until he can
see in great detail the gross view of its mandibles. At the same time, he feels that there’s something
creeping into his very soul, this is mental attack! No amount of health and reincarnation potion could
protect him from mental attack, and from his collection of craft in his storage space weren’t anything
that could block it either. In addition, he can’t move! He’s still in the illusion! It is a hopeless situation!

Right at this time he could hear a illusionary “ding” sound from his head, it was the one which
he feels he also heard when he learned the True Sight. He feels like he gained new ability. He doesn’t
know what kind of ability it was yet, but whatever it is, it is hope! The only hope! He activated it!


“Mnn?” He woke up in the dining room. His father said, “So, do you understand? This marriage
is very crucial to both of our family. As business partners, there’s no more gesture of trust and assurance
better than this. Don’t worry about whether or not you like her, both of you could each obtain another
partner, as long as you did it secretly. Your marriage will be arranged at…”

He was startled by what his father said, “Arranged marriage? Polyandry? What the duck!” But
before he could voice his dissent, the scenery changed. But he didn’t even realize that the sudden
change of scenery was weird.

At the day of the marriage, in the time of consummation, he was still in his groom uniform, and
the wife was still covered in her veil. They are alone in the beautifully adorned room. He feels that he
doesn’t know anything about this person sitting beside him, all the more about what she is currently
thinking. This was also his first marriage, his first time in a room alone with a woman, and his first time
ever sit so close to a woman!

His heart beat faster than the fast and the furious, faster than the need for speed, and faster
than formula one! He doesn’t even know why he was thinking something so unrelated to the topic like
right now! Maybe it was his way to escape reality.

The clock is ticking, the awkwardness increases, the tension became unbearable! The tension
which in turn made him brave enough to say, “Can I open your veil?” In his plan, when came the
moment when he look at the bride’s face after this, he would make himself appear awestruck
speechless for a while and say “You are beautiful” to break the ice. That way, even if the wife was ugly
he would not hurt her feelings, and when she is beautiful, he would also gain benefit!

The wife sitting beside him didn’t even face his way when she nodded a little, shyly.

So he braved himself, braced himself for the unknown, he raised his hand raise her veil gently.
At first, he doesn’t know what he’s currently looking, but when the face was unveiled fully, he really was
struck speechless… Because the wife, was really ugly!

Half of her face was covered in who knows what, her mouth was dry, the little bit of teeth that
could be seen inside the mouth was black, her eyes were white like there’s a grey layer covering her
pupils, and her hair looks coarse.

But when he looked at how sad her face appeared, he realized his fatal mistake. He had made a
girl sad! He had made his own wife sad! He has revealed in his face that he was disgusted by his own
wife! Quickly, to make her doubt about that fact, he kissed her all over her face! He kissed her intently!
Like it was the most beautiful face he had ever seen!

In this situation, he doesn’t feel any words he said would appear sincere to her, so he just shut
up, and prove his admiration by action! The consummation progressed further steadily.

It was until both of them were naked, and his limp thing was revealed.
Chapter 5

It was until both of them were naked, and his limp thing was revealed. No matter what he did,
no matter what his wife did on the attempt to make him happy with her, it doesn’t want to stand up! He
knows the reason, and he thinks that she knew the reason, but he made up his reasoning anyway, saying
that, “I’ve been like this since who knows when, I hope that you won’t be mad at me. If you accept me
for what I am, I promise with my life I will give you the best time of your life!”

She knew that the reason why his thing won’t wake up was that because he was internally
disgusted by her appearance. But when she heard him says that, she rejected her own logic and
accepted his excuse whole! In shyness, she timidly answered with a whisper that almost like silence, “I,
I.., yes!”

That night, even though the husband’s thing stayed asleep like that, both of them attempted to
pleasure the other the best that they can. And the scenery changed again.

Even though the sudden change of scenery repeated for many times, he doesn’t even realize
that it was happening. Even though their normal day-to-day household activities were skipped, every
key events and first times were played as is. Each and every tribulation was passed by the second, the
emotions and the background story seemed real, and even though there are some differences, they
always survived it together and stronger than ever.

But it doesn’t mean the root of the problem changed. Deep inside he was still in revulsion
towards her face, which in turn prohibited his thing for doing its thing, resulting in them not having any
children. The wife knew and saddened by this, but she also knew that his care was real. Even though the
love was false, the affection was true. Because of how she cared about him, she has been saying that
she was willing for his man to take another wife, but he never did.

It was after some years that the wife starts falling sick. The cause was unknown. She can’t even
walk around by herself. Due to that, the husband retired early and built a small shop at home. The
income was not good, but enough for two. Their parents are business oriented people machine, and
those people have left both of them alone after their joint business fallen apart. She only got him, and
he only got her.

The wife was saddened by how her husband was suffering because of her, which in turn
worsened her complexion. And the husband was also saddened by how her wife was increasingly frail
and weak.

It was at the critical moment when life would be gone from his wife at any moment that the
husband realized that he was in fact in an illusion! He somewhat realized that the wife he cared
affectionately for all this time was, in fact, the centipede! That makes his revulsion towards her
increased, he was confused and despaired, did all of their feeling for each other for all this time even
real? Or is it just him being manipulated by the centipede? And it was that time that he somewhat
understood that the reason of his “wife’s” sickness was because the centipede were close to escaping
the illusion!

He was going to rebuke her in her sickbed, but when he opens the door to their room and saw
the withered and sickly figure of his wife, his sole wife for all these years, he decided to forget all of his
logic and reasoning, and allowed himself to be overwhelmed by gentleness instead. He sat silently
beside the bed, holding her hand, and watched her peaceful sleeping face.

He lost in thought for quite some time, and didn’t even realized that his wife has been awake
since some time ago, also staring at him with gentleness. After quite some time in which both are
shrouded in silence and thoughts, even though weakly and almost like a whisper she finally said,
“Husband, this life, I, I don’t know how long I will be able to.., tomorrow, maybe even today? My life is
done and I’ve been happy with it. Living with you was the best time of my life.”

“Husband, did you remember what you promised with your life on our first night together? I
want to say you have fulfilled your promise… but you haven’t. I am content in this life, but I don’t know
if I can be content in the afterlife! Don’t you want me to be happy in there? If you want me to be forever
happy… don’t ever be sad because of me. I will be happy when you are happy. When you are happy, you
have fulfilled your promise to me to make me happy.”

She was gasping for breath while holding her husband hands tightly, but in front of her husband,
she was masking the fact that she was in so much bodily pain with a gentle smile on her face. She said,
“Isn’t a promise by the name of our own life the most sacred thing in the world?”

The husband’s heart was split in two by the realness of his feeling and experience with her in
this illusionary world, but also torn by the fact that it is all an illusion. He wanted all of this to be true,
but yet, he doesn’t, because this wife of him would forever vanish and woke up as the centipede
monster. Will her personality in this illusion became the truth or none of it would remain?

“Husband, there’s something I’ve never dared to tell you, afraid that you would left me. But now
only in the deathbed, I know how stupid I am, the kind you would never left me because of this.
Husband, the truth is that my father has been cursed by a centipede demon. By some way of another, I
was the one which the curse is befallen, my skin became dry and there’s a chance that extreme despair
could turn me forever into a centipede monster.”

“Sometimes, I suffered this particular nightmare where I turn into a centipede. In that dream I
despaired so much that I lost all faith in humanity. I kill human left and right, it was like all human was
my enemy. But I know husband, I was stupid, it was a stupid dream. How could I lose faith in humanity
when there’s someone like you? How could they become my enemy when one of them is you?”

It was at that point that he couldn’t hold back his tears. The story seemed to tell an alternate
reality, something that truly did happen that is very well the opposite of their life together in this
illusionary world! And somehow, his revulsion for her in all this time vanished without a trace! Sobbing,
he couldn’t hold back and said, “Wife, even if the nightmare was the truth and our life together is but an
illusion, I am sure that my feelings for you are all true.”

Without saying anything he immediately kissed his sole wife, even if they have been living
together for years, this will be the time when he and she truly became a husband and wife, because this
is the night where all trace of his revulsion of her were gone and the real consummation can begin!

Even if it was painful for her, it feels that her happiness today numbed all pains and turned it to
pleasure. This is the first time where she truly feels that she had repaid her husband kindness, however
only a bit. And miraculously, her health since that day began to improve. Maybe it was because all her
sadness is gone along with the blood of her virginity, or because of the feeling of having the way to
repay her husband’s kindness little by little.

It was the day when love truly began to bloom between them. The wife was still ugly, but the
husband doesn’t feel any revulsion anymore. He truly loved and cherished her. And one year later, their
first kid was born. Life was good, and year by year the husband started to forgot that this was all an
illusion!

When they became old and wrinkly, their first son cared for them. The daughter-in-law was
kind, and their grandchildren were naughty but cute! These were happy memories, but somewhat their
earlier experiences sailing through sadness and tribulations were more memorable. But it doesn’t mean
that these later experiences weren’t memorable though!

In deathbed, this time, the wife didn’t say much, she only smiled and said, “See you later, pipi…”
“Yeah, wait for me, mimi… ehehe.” When the wife died, the husband suddenly thunderstruck by
realization! This was an illusion, and in the outside world, the centipede monster which woke up first
could kill him anytime!

But when he saw the smiling face of his departed wife, he feels content. It was enough. This life
was enough. Even if his “wife”, the centipede killed him, it would be okay. Let this be the only reality for
him. But, if somewhat his wife existed “inside” that centipede and it didn’t kill him, maybe someday he
could find a cure for her, and return to this day together as husband and wife. But at that time, that life
will be the real thing!
Chapter 6

He wakes up in darkness, and when he reached, he feels that he was wrapped up in silk. This
layer of silk, despite being thick, was surprisingly easy to break. He emerged from something like a
cocoon. He was still inside the hole he first came in, but deeper. He can’t see the falcon, he can’t see the
centipede, and the hole was filled with nothing. He was unsure whether his “wife” has shown mercy to
him or she just left for a while and kill him later.

Conditions unknown, he quickly gets out of the hole and started journeying again!

Several days later he once again entered another forest. This time the trees are a bit different
from the native trees from the wolves’ forest, so he can be sure that he didn’t came back to that old hag
(wolf)! Just as he entered the boundary –where stacks of fallen leaves are-, he could see a smoke rising
from inside.

“Is it people or maybe bandits? Whatever, more loot for me!” He excitedly entered the forest
toward the place indicated by the smoke. Earlier, he had already planted the last unplanted Corpse
Eater egg below his tongue. With this, he had two extra lives, if the tribulation is somewhat dangerous,
he can just run away.

What he saw were six Chinese men covered in dry blood. Some of them were badly injured, and
some of them injured, none of them are lightly or even not injured. It seems that some first aid was
done, but not enough. When he approached, they stared warily. So he raised both his hands unarmed as
a gesture of No Offense. But it makes them more wary instead.

So without delay he throws a health potion to the one which has the worst condition. This
particular health potion was in liquid form covered in a bird’s eggshell, it was specifically invented to be
thrown. Because it was only an experimental object with no real uses, he only had one of them.

When that man realizes that he was completely healed, he exclaimed in shock! That shocked
expression and his better complexion made his friends also exclaimed in shock! They are still wary, but
allowed the boy to approach. Then he popped health pills to the last two badly-injured men.

“So it was like that.” He said after one of the guys told the story of their misfortune to him.
Apparently, they were beast-tamer of Chen family. When they were in the middle of hunting a monster,
an unknown creature attacked both their flying mount. It causes all seven of them which rides atop the
flying mount to fall to this forest. One died, six injured.

And during the fall, their supplies were either lost or damaged. Some of the surviving
medications were used to treat their wounds but not enough. It was several days already and infection
worsen the injury of three of them. Because they are brothers, they refused to abandon one another.
So, the results of what happened then is this six bedraggled people gathered here.
It was stupid, but sometimes affections were indeed stupid. But it was affection nonetheless!

One other thing he noticed is the weirdness of the guy’s accent. The boy recognized it as English,
but also not English, there were some words which he either misheard or were of different language
entirely! He assumed that this was one of the cheat ability given to him, the power of understanding
language!

“Young master, can we know your honored name?” The guy asked. The boy was struck by the
realization that he hasn’t been using names since, forever! Even when he was in the illusion realm, he
can’t remember his own name and never mentions his wife’s name! How weird.

“Um, you can call me Zhou.” That was the only name he could think of right now. It was the only
Chinese name he could think of. He thinks the meaning of it was Elephant, but what he meant was
actually Zhou in Japanese.

The Chen guy, apparently realizing that was not this young master real name, refrained from
asking any further. That awkward expression and silence from the Chen guy was very telling, so Zhou
attempted to find some random topic to discuss, “Umm, as what you can see, I’m not from around here.
Can you tell me the general info about this area?”

Realizing that it was a chance to repay the young master’s kindness, he started telling stories
about many things. From the legend regarding this particular forest, the name and landmark of various
places, until latest gossips of famous people in the kingdom!

Zhou was a bit embarrassed, because what he want to know is more general than that, like the
name of the world, how many continent, what year is it, the state of the technology, how many days a
year, how many seasons a year, the name of the cardinal directions, from which direction the sun
appeared from, the name of the kingdom and its neighbors, the general culture, so on and so forth.
Because both of them don’t know each other and have little possibility to meet again, he though he may
as well ask!

The guy Chen was looking awkwardly at this young master, one particular though appeared in
his mind, “This young master is not a spy from a foreign country, but he’s a spy from the heaven! How
could he not even know from which direction the sun came from? No wonder his medicines are so
godly.” Despite feeling that, this guy Chen started answering the questions one by one, even throwing
bonuses like the famous landmarks and legends.
Chapter 7

Zhou nodded, and he started wondering for another question to ask. One thing already in his
mind is to ask the way to tame beasts. He wanted a flying mount, so this kind of knowledge would be
very useful. The Chen guy then explained that the more intelligent the beast the more difficult it is to
tame, but once tamed, it would be easier to train than less intelligent beast. But not if you formed slave
contract, the more brainless a creature is, the easier it is to train.

But slave contract needs willingness from both parties, if a creature didn’t have emotions, you
can’t bond with it. The Chen guy explained further about various techniques related to taming and
training. Although his own clan’s technique were undisclosed, the more general one were shared in full.

The other two completely-healed men were out searching for their lost belongings. Now that
they were completely fit, they can be sure that they would be safe enough as long as they searched in
pairs. The other three who are still injured were treated with stamina potions, at least to make them
able to treat themselves. It’s not that Zhou can’t heal them, but he wasn’t a saint either, as long as their
wounds are not heavy enough, he can bear to ignore them.

Not long after, they departed. Before they left though, they said that Zhou should visit their clan
some time later, and they said that they would surely repay his kindness to them. But it was until some
distance away that one of the injured men wearing greedy expression whispered to his brother that
supported him walking, “Bro, why don’t we come back later to…” His brother, realized what he meant,
quickly interrupted, “Hush! Don’t you realize that there was something strange about him? The fact that
he doesn’t know anything about the world meant that he either was “not from this world” or humanized
monster!”

When the night fell, Zhou was already at the other end of the forest. It was just some distance
later that he had found a cave to rest. This time, he checked thoroughly to make sure that the cave was
ownerless. He obtained fresh meat from his spatial storage to eat directly. The fresh meat was in the
spatial storage since his days at the wolf’s den, and stayed fresh since then. Because he has been living
with the wolves, it became common to him to eat raw flesh like that. And after making sure that nothing
weird happened outside, he drew some furs from his spatial storage to warm himself up to sleep.

Something was slithering towards his sleeping body, almost undetected. It was shaped like a
snake, but not a snake. It looks like a jelly, but tougher. It was grey colored but somewhat could produce
different colors to blend with its surroundings. There was not only one of those, there were many!

Suddenly they captured his legs and dragged him into the forest! Startled by the development,
Zhou woke up and reflexively looked at his legs, there were things like octopus legs binding him and
dragging him away! Because of his sudden interruption from sleep, he couldn’t quite process what he
was seeing until seconds later.
Apparently sensing that this was a dangerous moment, something inside of him activated. He
suddenly feels that time around him was slowing down to a crawl, even though the time in the real
world moved normally, it was his brain that makes him feels like that. His brain was processing things in
hyper-speed! It was an ability he unintentionally got from when he was attacked by the White Snake!

Under that state, he realized that what dragged him was actually a Slime monster! Usually slime
was small and tame, move around slowly like turtles while eating organic matter under its body. But he
can’t be wrong in this, because one of the things he fancied during his time in the wolf’s den was
experimenting on things, and he especially did many experiments on slimes!

No wonder the forest earlier felt eerie, there was such a huge and ferocious slime living inside it!
No wonder the forest was silent and clean, like no animals ever live there, they were eaten by the slime!
He realized that the thing which attacked the mount of those beast-tamers from earlier were this very
slime. But why doesn’t it attack the beast-tamers?

Actually, the very fact that the beast-tamers survived for several days while injured made him
think that the attacker were long gone. But oh how wrong he was, for regret, there’s no medicine!

He tried to slash and did everything he can to sever the slime from his legs, but he failed. He
considered cutting his own lower half but hesitated. There are only two of his backup lives, if he was
captured again as soon as he came back to life, his effort would be useless. He realized just now that the
weakness of his reincarnation technique is that he can’t prevent himself from being captured!

Zhou’s body was “frozen” because he was currently using his ability to think in hyper-speed.
Meanwhile, in real-time he was being dragged forcefully and rapidly towards a crack on the ground. He
was dragged further inside while every rocks and miscellaneous things in the ground were hitting him,
scratching him and hurting him further.

Sometimes, he would find boulders or trees along the way to grab it to prevent himself from
being dragged further. But his body and the slime were stronger than those, the boulders were moved
and the trees uprooted! Nothing can prevent him from slipping further down the crack on the ground.

He approached a huge cave below the ground. In the middle of it was the huge slime which was
grey and round like a huge boulder. It appears that there were some seals placed on it, and there were
even layers of barriers surrounding it. Seeing all of those, Zhou’s instinct told him that they were very
dangerous. So, he immediately grabbed a jut from the solid ground below to hold on.

Fortunately, the jut was very strong. Unfortunately, after failing several times in dragging Zhou
in, the huge slime started to cover him with more tentacles! Yet, the tentacles still failed to drag him
further. What happens after that was more outrageous!

The tentacles started probing groping his body! The tentacles entered his noses, his mouth, his
ears, and started entering under his clothes! And started groping those places!
He has a body that emitted immense Yin energy. Because of that, although he was a man, his
features were like a girl, a very beautiful girl! Even though there wasn’t any mountain on her him, if
there was an onlooker, it would appear that it was still very lewd! Men will become pedophiles, women
became shotacon! And because he emitted immense Yin energy, the brainless slime was very interested
in him!

He felt like crying. Was he a man who molested and raped people before in previous lives? Is
this karma?! In his heart, he made a vow that if he survived this ordeal, he would never molest and rape
people. Being molested was scary! This scary!

Because he was now mentally cornered, he started using his ace card he prepared a while ago!
It was the last three Affection-Increasing Potions! After “giving” the slime those gifts of potions, he
started reciting the incantation for the Slave Contract magic!
Chapter 8

He was out of the forest, clean and proper. Somehow he wore different clothes than the fur &
cloth he had been wearing all this time. He now wore a white warrior robe, with blue on some places.
His long hair is now styled like a Jianghu swordsman. No, he exactly was styling himself to look like that,
like the actor from some Chinese martial arts movies.

In his back is a black sword, and in his right hip is a straight sword with white sheath. The black
sword was named Yang Guo, while the white sword was named Xiaolongnu. There was no indication of
what happened with the huge slime, but if you look closely, in both of the swords and clothes he wore
were patterns that looks similar like the seal on the huge slime!

He looked at his own style and nodded in satisfaction. Saying, ”Ah, how perfect. If I have a pet
condor, the style would have been more heroic!”
