Chapter 918: Chen Kaixin’s Counterattack

Chapter 918: Chen Kaixin’s Counterattack

One year and a half ago, Chen Kaixin failed in his confession, and he got himself dead drunk

Happy was betrayed by his girlfriend and best friend. He was killed countless times, and he was forced to delete his account in World of Martial Arts. In his dejection, he quit World of Martial Arts and got himself dead drunk while it poured outside.

Both created a parallel world connecting to each other, but no one can understand it.

Thus, Happy entered the other Chen Kaixin’s body from three years ago.

The original owner, Chen Kaixin, was in a dazed state. He did not know that there was another person using his body, but as time passed, he found that his actions were getting stranger and more profound, and as he started remembering that he seemed to be in the midst of it all but was disconnected from all this, he finally slowly to understand what was happening to him.

Then, something strange happened.

The original owner chose to watch by the side.

He watched his other self emerging as a new force of power in the university and thriving in life. Later on, the woman of his dreams, Xu Xin, entered his life. The Three Lonely Wolves lived a glorious life. He also saw Beautiful Robes’ destruction, and later on, Mu Clan’s rise to power.

However, just a few minutes ago, due to a complete accident, when Chen Kaixin tried to stop Happy from touching Xu Xin, he woke up.

He regained control of his own body from within.

At the same time Chen Kaixin regained control of his life, Happy, who always thought that he just returned to the past, moved through time and space with a heavy weight on his chest, as if there was something crushing him and preventing him from moving. He returned to the small rental house he lived in for more than two years, and it was filled with a medicinal scent as well as the smell of alcohol.

Xu Yao’s scent remained in the air.

Happy laid in bed weakly. There was a bowl of medicine that had been perfectly boiled. Steam rose from it.

Beside the bed was Xu Yao’s clothes as well as bedsheets.

On the tea table was a clock and a calendar that delivered huge waves of shock to Happy. They also reminded him that he was no longer at the base outside the university, but in the rental house that he was even more familiar with and was trying hard to forget day and night.

“You’re awake?” A quivering cry of surprise from the direction of the balcony.

When he heard this voice, Happy turned his head around mechanically.

Xu Yao, who was much thinner now, put down an entire basket of clothes before she pushed open the floor-to-ceiling window hastily and rushed into Happy’s bedroom. Her face was covered in tears.

‘What’s going on?!’ Happy yelled in his heart.

The time, place, the person in front of him, and everything else seemed to be delivering multiple shocks to his mind, which was actually very strong.

‘Was it a dream? Was everything a dream?’

Happy reclined slightly against his bed, and there was an anguished as well as self-deprecating smile on his face.

“Thank goodness! You’re finally awake!

“Lay down! Do you have any idea how long you’ve been in coma? It’s been over a year… Your body is very weak. The doctor said that it’s all because your mind wasn’t clear after you got yourself drunk and went into the rain. You can’t get yourself exposed to the cold anymore.”

‘Drunk?’

Happy’s mind conjured up the image of himself being left alone while he was dead drunk and then exposing himself to the storm outside in his dejection. Even more bitterness and anguish rose in his heart.

‘I knew it. I came back.

‘I woke up from my dream.’

“Why didn’t you leave with Blood Robes?” Happy’s voice was very calm.

He did not know whether it was because he believed in the dream Xu Yao’s experiences or whether it was because he went through more than one year in the dream. But now, the load that had been weighing down on his heart had become much lighter.

Before his voice faded away, he suddenly looked in the direction of Xu Yao’s gaze, and he saw a clear black and white photo placed on the table not far away. There was the image of a middle-aged woman who looked similar to Xu Yao on it, and Happy’s eyes were immediately fixed on it. He then turned his head around to Xu Yao in disbelief.

“She passed away when you challenged the spot for the sixteen best in the world.”

When she noticed the shock on Happy’s face, Xu Yao just turned her head around to look at him for a while before she understood. She then stated without batting an eyelid, “I stayed here because I owe you. Once you get better, I will leave.”

Xu Yao’s words delivered multiple shocks to Happy’s mind.

“Why didn’t you tell me?”

“Didn’t I?” Xu Yao sat down at the other end of the bed. “But that doesn’t matter anymore. It has been more than a year since that accident. I destroyed the thing you cared about the most, and the person I care about the most has been destroyed by god. Now that you’re awake, once you get better, we will have nothing to do between us anymore.”

When he heard Xu Yao’s cold and stiff words, Happy suddenly understood a little of what was going on. Deep regret flashed in his eyes when he looked at the black and white photo again.

“You sure did a wonderful thing there by destroying it.”

Xu Yao said nothing.

“Did you help Blood Robes ruin my chance at the Sword Among Us Tournament at your own will?”

“There’s no point in talking about that now.” Xu Yao stood up. “Hurry up and get better so that you can look for a job. World of Martial Arts is no longer suited for you—”

“You threw my helmet away as well?” Happy looked around and found no traces of his helmet.

Xu Xin did not answer.

But at that moment, Happy suddenly felt his vision turning dark. A powerful suction force sucked his mind into a vortex.

Vaguely, Happy seemed to hear Xu Yao’s cry in despair.

*****

Whoosh!

Light returned to his vision. Strength returned to his body.

Happy could not instantly get used to the switch from a weak body to a strong physique. The medicinal scent that filled the entire room was gone. Instead, what he smelled was Xu Xin’s sweet fragrance and his bright as well as clean bedroom.

‘What’s going on?’ Happy’s body was stiff as he looked around. ‘This is… Did I enter a coma again?

‘That’s not right. I’ve never read about someone being able to load dreams like save files and helping the person return to the moment it ended.’

However, after moving around time repeatedly, Happy’s mental fortitude was already so strong that he doubted he could get any stronger than that.

To quickly understand what was going on with his body, Happy quickly sent Xu Xin out of the bedroom once Xu Xin spoke to him.

After she left, something abnormal happened.

“I was the one who drew you back.”

A faint voice rose in his mind, and it was a voice Happy was incredibly familiar with.

“My name is Chen Kaixin.”

After hesitating for a few seconds, Happy answered in a mocking tone, “What a coincidence, my name is also Chen Kaixin.”

“I’m the original owner of this body, and based on the fragmented memories you brought to me, you should be the me three years later. For some unknown reason, you showed up in me and obtained control over my body.”

The voice in his head was incredibly calm, and it was as if he was talking about how his clothes had been used by someone else for more than one year.

Happy said nothing for a moment. He just slowly digested the shocking information brought by the voice in his head.

“Are you saying that you’re awake now.”

“No. I’ve been awake for a long time.”

“Then you…”

Chen Kaixin spoke in his mind, “At that time, my mind was rather weak. It might be because I was just rejected, and that time, you came over with a very powerful desire for revenge. That was why even when I wanted to seize my body back, I didn’t know how to do so. Right now, you’ve achieved your goal in taking revenge over Class One Hall. Your obsession over them is slowly becoming weaker, and it’s only then that I learned of the way to seize control over my body back.”

Happy’s heart sank when his own voice rose in his mind.

She suddenly had a strong sense of uneasiness in him.

It was as if everything around him as well as everything that he had was about to leave him.

Xu Xin, his friends, Silver Wolf, everything in the game, and everything outside the game. Everything was about to be completely unrelated to him.

‘Am I… about to return to that world filled with a medicinal scent?

‘Damn it, why didn’t you chase me out sooner?!’

An unfathomable rage rose in Happy’s heart.

He had been comatose in that world for more than a year.

In his mind, Chen Kaixin seemed to have sensed Happy’s thoughts and anger. After hesitating for a long while, he spoke again, “All of this was originally mine, and you took away my life and everything from me after you entered my body—”

“I know that this damn world doesn’t belong to me! So if you would please send me back?! And do it quickly!”

Happy was already unable to help but worry about how the Xu Yao in the other world was doing.

Over the past one year and a half, she took care of a comatose patient, and after those one year and a half, he finally recovered, but right then, this accursed Chen Kaixin just sporadically decided to boast about what he had in Happy’s face.

“I’m not boasting. I… I just don’t know how to face all this…” The voice in his head explained hesitantly. “When Xu Xin hugged me, my mind was blank. I did not know how to comfort her… She seems to know that I’m not you.”

“You don’t say!”

“So to comfort her, I can only bring you over here.”

“That’s it?!” Happy flew into a rage again. “You had me move over time and space just so that I can comfort the woman of your dreams?”

Happy was gradually getting into character. “Now that you’ve finished using me, can you please send me back, young master? I don’t want to see you at all right now.”

The voice in his head instantly fell silent.

“What now?!”

“I’m just thinking. I cannot communicate with a lot of people. Besides, I’ll definitely slip up in front of Silver Wolf, Knife, and the others.”

Happy was rendered speechless for a moment before he said, “Are you seriously going to restrain me in your body and make me continue living life with you? Are you going to give up on your life and world?”

“No, I’m just asking whether you can take some of your time out and help me so that I can slowly get used to everything? After all, my life is in a complete mess now thanks to you.”

“You’ll have to change your wording there a little, buddy, because when you said that I made your life a complete mess, I made you a famous person in the world and a billionaire, brought the woman of your dreams into your stupid place to serve you, and helped your friends to reach their current status. If you want to continue complaining, I’ll be glad to entertain you.”

Chen Kaixin was rendered speechless once more in his mind.

But this was normal, considering the fact that he was facing himself, who had a few years of experience ahead of him.

Everyone else complained about their past selves, but no one had ever complained about their future selves.

“Alright, let me put it this way. Aren’t you afraid that I’ll make a complete mess of the world you carefully created?”

Happy was instantly rendered speechless. He then said, “Didn’t you learn anything at all over the past one year and a half?”

“I watched a lot, but I didn’t get any hands-on experience with it. Take today as an example. I know what’s going on, but once I regained control over my body, I still felt at a loss,” the voice in his head answered feebly.

When he heard this, Happy sucked in a sharp breath.

After this brand new Chen Kaixin entered World of Martial Arts, he might end up wasting all the Fire Qilin Blood and Illusion Life and Death Pills he accumulated through blood, sweat, and tears on some amateur, like those in Wild Wolves.

He might not even be able to raise his head in front of Silver Wolf.

In fact, he might even let Class One Hall rise from the ashes and destroy Mu Clan.

Even though Happy was already in a hurry to return to the other world, when he thought of all this, he could not help but instantly feel a chill down his spine.
