CHAPTER 3: WHAT IS MY REAL NAME

"I am here...son!"

"Woke up!" 

"Ah!"

A youth with purple-black hair suddenly woke up!

"Huff.....huff...."

He was gasping for breath frantically.

"Why are you screaming son! What happened?" A man with black hair asked.

"Son! Come on tell me!"

'What happened? Tell?' 

His mind is empty.

"Who am I?" The question he uttered at the man.

*cries

*hug

"Son...I'm sorry, ahhh!" 

*cries

"I'm sorry...."

A man who's calling him a son was crying.

'Son? Is that me? Why do I feel I lost something?'

'What is it?' He recalled but...

"Argh! My head, it hurts..." He was in pain. He touches his head in pain.

"Son..."

"Ahhh!" The man shouts.

The man eyes were fierce coloured in blue and his eyebrows are slanting down!

"Don't you worry son...Don't you worry!!! I will take that back! I will take your memories back!"

The man stated this.

'Memories?'

*thud

"I have memories!"

He suddenly stood up his upper body while grabbing the man from his collar.

"Where are my memories! Where!"

He yelled at the man.

"I..." 

The man who is calling him son could not utter the word anymore.

"I'm sorry..."

"Tell me! Where are my memories!" He yelled at the man again.

He shakes the man shoulders but he got that beg...

"I'm sorry..."

"....."

"I am so sorry..."

The man kept uttering that word.

"I'm sorry, son..."

*cries

"Where are my memories?" He asked himself.

"And who am I?"

*thud

He falls unto his back and lied.

"ah.. ahhhh...." He shouts and cried. His purple eyes tears.

*cries

30 minutes later before he calmed down. 

He moved his body and tried to stand up but...

'Ah... Why Is my body isn't moving?'

He tried. Yet his lower half did not.

He moved the cloth but what entangled him is his lower body.

"Ah!" He muttered loudly.

"Son...I'm sorry."

"...."

"Son... you were almost killed. I'm so sorry... I'm a useless father."

His lower body was found to be paralyzed.

'What really happened?' 

Without nothing on his mind, as empty as a cup, he asked.

"Who am I?"

The man was somewhat unhappy when he asked that question.

"..."

"I'm sorry."

"Okay... I will tell." The man wiped his moist eyes and started to talk.

"Your name is Wung Bei."

"Wung Bei?"

"Yes...that is your name."

Then the man continued.

"You are from Wung Family. The family who fought the Immortal War 300 years ago. During the Immortal War 300 years ago, thousands of Immortals fought for one thing! 

Reaching the Immortality! 

Yet only 8 Immortals came back. Not our Wung family but Long Shan of the Long Family and the 7 Immortals who took that glory. These 8 Immortals ruled now the 7 continents."

"7 continents? Didn't you say they were 8 Immortals?" He asked.

"Actually, the two of them was a couple." The man replied.

Then the man continued.

"The Immortal Long Shan of the Long family is now the ruler of the continent "Fa." The 7 continents are called as Gu, Fa, Do, Rei, Qin, Shiva, and Ku. And we belonged at Fa Continent. We are in the village of Siamese, in the southern part of Habanai town. 

If you asked what happened to your lower half, that is because you fought for our independence."

"I fought? How?" He asked curiously. 

He wanted to know what really happened when he fought and how he got a paralyzed lower half.

"Yes, you did. But Wung family isn't that worthy to the eyes of strong people, the Dao family. Dao family took all the possessions of our Wung family, including the land, and legacy. Of course, Our Wung family did not refute to their demand."

"Why?" He asked.

Then the man continued.

"Because we are no longer in the past. We can do nothing since we have no Immortals. We only got a piece of land yet we are held as a miner And then you came to us. A child who was left by someone. We only got your name from the necklace that was left by that person. And it was written as Wun Bei, not Wung Bei. With that state of yours, we adopted you and changed your name as Wung Bei."

"Wun Bei...Wun Bei..." He muttered this twice.

"Is that my real name?" Wun Bei asked. Then he touches his neck. There was really a necklace.

"Mother..father..." He muttered.

"Yes, you're right." The man replied.

Then the man continued.

"When you were young we discovered that you have a very high talent in Cultivation. So the family of Wung secretly trained you. We might better train than to wait for nothing. Since then you trained so hard. Years had passed you succeeded from reaching the Oath Immortal. Oath Immortal is not just an Immortal, it is an immortal who can fly. Oath Immortal is the 2nd stage of the Immortal Stage. These stages were actually divided into 8 Levels:

1. Apprentice Immortal

2. Oath Immortal

3. Denouncing Immortal

4. Soul Cleaving Immortal

5. Modification Immortal

6. Impaired Immortal

7. Compact Immortal 

8. Purification Immortal

And these 8 Levels is our bases in Cultivation. These 8 is divided into 3 stages:

1. Forming Stage

2. Star Stage

3. Planetary Stage

4. Solar Stage

That was the 4 stages at every level. But on every level, there is a thing called, Tribulation. Tribulation occurred during the breakthrough of levels. In order to pass the tribulation, you must pass the heavens trial."

"I'm an Oath Immortal." Wun Bei uttered.

Then the man continued.

"Since you reached the Oath Immortal, you decided to take us away from them, from the Dao family. You almost won but someone from the inner family took notice of our rebellion."

"Inner family?" Wun Bei asked.

"Yes, you just fought the outer family. Not the inner family. It is because we didn't belong to inner but from an outer family of Dao family. The family is divided into 3 levels:

1. Outer

2. Inner

3. Core..."

"Then why did the inner family fought us?" He asked the man.

"Of course the inner family wouldn't mind us. Since we are that weak. Any of the outer family can kill us. Of course, they didn't know the fact that you are also a Cultivator."

"So why did the inner family hinder us to leave and why did they stop me?" Wun Bei asked.

"It is not because we can leave already but there is a person that was involved. That is your friend, Karie."

"Kenarie?" Wun Bei asked.

Then the man continued.

"Yes, Kenarie. Kenarie was a pretty youth. But she was taken by force from the inner family. When you heard the news about her, you decided to take her back, of course, you hold something from her. Then you went at them and decided this out. "To take her from them." "To leave this Dao Family together with us." Of course "we" from the Wung family suffered this long. So we decided to face this together with you, we rebelled."

"So did I won?" Wun Bei asked.

"Yes. You won. You really helped us to flee. Yet I'm so sorry son! Your father is useless." The man replied.

"Why did you say sorry since we got to leave?" Wun Bei said.

"That is.. I'm sorry." The man was taken aback to say it.

"Okay... You won but Kenarie was... she was the root of our success! Kenarie sacrificed her life for us! He offered herself from the inner family! When you fought them and took her from the inner family, they got angry and send out to kill you! You fainted and was almost killed! She begged. Kenarie begs to let us go and never come back! I'm sorry...She... already married... I'm so sorry son!" The man replied apologetically.

He kneeled in front of him. He is begging.

"I'm so sorry!"

Wun Bei couldn't believe this is him.

His mind was flooded with different questions.

Am I Wun Bei? 

Was it really me? 

Why do I feel lost? 

What really am I?

Who are my parents?

Who is Kenarie?

Why do I feel no worries?

Is this really me?

The Wun Bei or Wung Bei he called?

"Do you want to live?" A voice whispered.

"Ah?!"

"Who are you?" Wun Bei called.

"Son? Are you okay." The man replied.

"I am your Guide." That voice whispered again.

To be continued...

Satou, D.

"Is that my real name?"
