Chapter 625: 12.27 Unknown Star - Modern ABO World: Awkwardness
{Oh? I forgot. I\'m in my God Form.}Hei Anjing retracted his overflowing qi and divinity and even changed his form from God to humanity.
His long brown hair turns shorter and becomes black while his argent irises change to the shade of sea and sky, celestial blue. Even his ancient robes become modern wearing a loose white summer shirt with a brown shoe lace pattern on the chest part. It was partnered with tight light blue pants and simple cloth white sneakers.
Then he sat on the free seat at the same table as Hei Yuhua and Ye Yuyan while waving his hands to Warden Lou and Yun Ming not far from him.
Hei Anjing said, "You may stand up. Warden Lou, A\'Ming. To think you\'ve found us too soon."
Yun Ming and Warden Lou stood by the side of Hei Anjing respectfully when he heard his words about questioning how they were able to find them this fast.
Yun Ming as Yun Jie answered, "Elder Hei Mo and Esteemed Lord Hei Sian worked together to find the Lord\'s traces. With two direct bloodlines of Hei looking for the Lord, finding traces within all realms is not impossible. Plus, the Lord had direct blood connection with them, it was much easier than finding Lord God Ye."
Hei Anjing who was listening to his aide\'s explanation waves his hand and a tumbler filled with his homemade milk tea appeared in thin air. The rest were used to it but for mortals like Ye Yuyan and Hei Yuhua this scene is not different from magic but one without tricks. They stare speechless at the scene while looking at the personal tumbler Hei Anjing took out from his space ring. He sips on his drink joyously while ignoring the surprised eyes on him.
"How long is the duration of this Time scroll?" asked Hei Anjing while looking at the small moon and small sun floating near him.
System Yang answered, [It would only last for 10 more minutes.]
Hei Anjing responded, "Is that so? Then let\'s continue the conversation at home. A\'Ming, I leave the rest to you."
"Please leave it to me," replied Yun Jie.
"We will go ahead now. Don\'t forget to send what was bought and the car with you," said Hei Anjing.
Warden Lou responded, "As Lord Hei wishes."
Hei Anjing nods his head at the two and looks at the dumbfounded mortals before him. He only needs to teleport all three of them back to the condominium. Ye Yuya and Hei Yuhua only felt their surroundings shift and suddenly they opened their eyes back home to their house living room.
Ye Yuyan and Hei Yuhua looked around and saw familiar things at home. Hei Anjing didn\'t stop the two from looking around as if to check whether this place is indeed their house or not. Hei Anjing watches them as he takes out a few more snacks in his space and eats with gusto while watching the television in the living room.
After an hour of looking around, Ye Yuyan and Hei Yuhua sat back in the living room only to see their table full of desserts. There are cream puffs, muffins, scones, brownies, and more. Then they saw the one who called himself God munching on it though he was still as graceful as he looks.
Seeing such mouthwatering desserts of all kinds before him, Hei Yuhua couldn\'t help but want to eat. Of course, Hei Anjing noticed his hunger and chuckled.
"Eat. Go eat with me. You two must be tired of going around the house multiple times." said Hei Anjing as he waved his hands once more and brought out a few bottles of wine, cheese, and salted biscuits for someone like Yu Yuyan who doesn\'t like sweets. "Here. Eat this. You don\'t like sweets right?" He said to the mortal prosecutor.
The three were eating in silence while only Ye Yuyan looked impatient as if he wanted to ask lots of questions to the two hamster-like beings munching on sweets. Hei Anjing looked at him with a playful smile.
Hei Anjing spoke, "Go ahead and ask your questions. While I\'m still awake that is~"
Ye Yuyan glanced at Hei Yuhua and saw him avoiding his eyes as if guilty of something.
"Can... Can you return all my memories of my last life to me?" asked Ye Yuyan.
This question not only made Hei Yuhua flinch, he even started distancing himself away from Ye Yuyan. It wasn\'t only because of guilt of hiding things from him but also of his instinctive fear whenever Hei Yuhua recalls that violent and cold-hearted version of Ye Yuyan.
Hei Anjing watches them entertained. His thin cerise lips were upturned in a smile watching the scene before they unfold.
"It\'s not that I can\'t but... Whether you wanted to do so or not? If I did return all your memories, the current you might not harm Yuhua but would you be able to promise that the old you wouldn\'t? After all, you with all the memories intact had treated Yuhua... Un! Not too well~" said Hei Anjing.
Ye Yuyan\'s determination wavered at this moment and saw Hei Yuhua hiding behind Hei Anjing while looking at him. He couldn\'t help but smile sadly when he saw how Hei Yuhua reacted this way. Just based on how he is acting right now, obviously he in those nightmares never treated Hei Yuhua as kindly as he does. But somewhere in his heart, a voice was telling him that he would never hurt him again. The contents of his vows were not only his feelings alone but also from him he doesn\'t remember.
"I... I don\'t know. But... I can say that the me with memories has always loved you the same way I do. The contents of that vow I made with the heavens, the feeling imprinted into those words wasn\'t mine alone. That version of me who ended up losing you chose to throw away his destined ending with someone and follow you to death as he couldn\'t accept the fact that he lost you." explained Ye Yuyan.
Hei Yuhua was stunned by what he heard and looked at Hei Anjing as if asking how this man could say such words especially when he doesn\'t have his memories at all.
Hei Anjing answered Hei Yuhua\'s questions and explained, "His soul is the same as the man from your timeline. The only difference is that Yue had sealed his memories as he doesn\'t have permission from the heavenly laws of this world. Only I have the authorization to go above them. But I was only able to give that permission to you alone as I fell asleep right after. To protect Ye Yuyan\'s soul from being destroyed, sealing that timeline\'s memories is the only way of survival. But I am awake now. I could give him the same privilege as I gave to you as long as you agree."
"Why are you asking me about this?" asked Hei Yuhua.
Hei Anjing spoke, "It is your body I am residing in. The wishes or conditions I will agree to are those you\'ve made. While the ones he (Ye Yuyan) asks for will be fulfilled by my husband that was sleeping inside him."
Hei Yuhua bit his lips as he looked at the smiling Hei Anjing and the nervous Ye Yuyan. Behind him, he didn\'t see System Yang and System Yue swaying as if shaking their heads.
Obviously, Lord Hei is playing with these two. As a God from Vearth, one with supreme standing, Lord Hei could do whatever he wants, even destroying a world would be easy for him. But he was the two mortals overthink as if playing a trick on them, that is without their consent.
Ye Yuyan could see the hesitation in Hei Yuhua\'s eyes. To him, their current situation is nicer than the one from their previous life. He likes this caring, a bit bully but kind Ye Yuyan. While he is scared of the aggressive and always grumpy Ye Yuyan from their past life. He could still recall the days when he was treated not even better than a stray cat in the alley.
Even when he is sick. Ye Yuyan would look at him as if he is playing delicately on purpose even when he was accidentally cut or injured during their raids, Ye Yuyan would never show him kindness or worry. He is being treated as a black sheep in the group made up of people that are supposed to be his comrades.
Even the determined and slightly ecstatic expression of Ye Yuyan that night at the pier is very vivid in his memories. He could see that he was very happy at the opportunity to kill him at that moment. The joy on Ye Yuyan\'s face at that time was like a knife stabbing his heart. It was extremely painful and numbing.
After losing all hope for this man\'s forgiveness, he taunted him to shoot him as he wished. Giving the man the latter the opportunity to get what he wanted. An act of revenge made up of countless misunderstandings.
Hei Yuhua looked straight at Ye Yuyan\'s eyes, making the latter flinch. His current expression was not as cold as wanted it is to be. Instead, Hei Yuhua looks a bit pitiful with the corner of his eyes reddening as if holding back an indescribable pain and sadness. Seeing this expression left Ye Yuyan speechless and regretful.
Hei Yuhua suddenly stood up and said, "Please give him back his memories. I want to return to my room for a bit. I also don\'t need dinner." Then he heads to his room and locks the door after him.
Ye Yuyan reached out his hand wanting to stop him for a moment but in the end, didn\'t do so as the atmosphere between them already became awkward the moment Hei Anjing woke up. In the first place, he didn\'t know that Hei Yuhua was like him. Someone who had regressed from the future timeline and come back to the past.
Plus, it seems that unlike him, Hei Yuhua had his full memories of that future timeline unlike his.
Ye Yuyan mumbled, "No wonder he didn\'t kill me that night at the hotel. For an agent like him killing me who was drugged to the point of intoxication."
"Of course, he can\'t kill you. Aside from his daughter, he loves you the most. Even if you are one of the sources of his misery in that timeline~" said Hei Anjing who suddenly appeared in front of Ye Yuyan.
Ye Yuyan was startled. Ever since Hei Anjing appeared out of thin air had heightened his guard all this time but he didn\'t even notice this person approaching at all. No sounds or movements just as if in a blink of an eye he appeared before him just like that.
When he turned around he met those deep blue eyes but when he felt like averting his gaze his body suddenly couldn\'t move at all.
Ye Yuyan\'s thoughts, \'My body... won\'t move!?\'
"Don\'t struggle. You can\'t go against me anyway. I just want to check on the person sleeping inside of you." said Hei Anjing.
Before Ye Yuyan could react, Hei Anjing\'s souk went inside Ye Yuyan. Three souls in one body are too much to bear for Ye Yuyan. He immediately fainted the moment Hei Anjing\'s soul entered him. It was such a very deep sleep like a coma.
System Yue and System Yang who were left behind had no other choice but to clean up after Lord Hei. They materialized in their human forms and split up the work.
System Yang carried Ye Yuyan to his room and let him sleep properly on the bed before returning to the living room to clean up all the desserts and snacks left behind. The two also took their time to eat what they wanted while waiting for Lord Hei to return.
Zhi Yue asked, "A\'Yang, do you think Lord Hei could wake up Lord God Ye?"
"I don\'t know. His current cultivation had degraded to mere that of a God. From its original Celestial God Stage down to just God Stage. He might not be able instantly up Lord God Ye but... healing his soul should suffice." answered Zhi Yang.
"Lord Hei\'s soul is getting weaker as he told us before. Even if we wanted to help him, we cannot as this is what he is supposed to become during the Second Trial of revival." Zhi Yue spoke, "Moreover, I heard that Milord\'s soul fragment from the Game world we are supposed to enter would be retrieved by the God of Void. In the last world, it was also him who would enter with Lord Hei. After this world, is Milord going to come back with us to the Netherworld?"
"He needs to. Whether he likes it or not. He needs to return to merge the remaining soul fragments before his soul core comes back with Lord Hei." said Zhi Yang.
Sighing. System Yue commented, "Milord would definitely not agree to return to the Netherworld alone."
"Let\'s leave it to Lord Hei to come up with something. Better not get involved in married couples\' fights," said Zhi Yang.
The two systems agreed anonymously with this decision. Both of their Lords were people they couldn\'t defy anyway. They are just going to be good and act like perfect background characters.
