Luna said. "After you're done with your crying, you can put aside those painful memories. But I didn't say to forget them, because they're the cause of what you're now, you can think over this things, AFTER! after you done playing with the nature. You can dive and play with the fishes or in the forest to play with the wildlife, but remember, don't go pass where that volcano is and where you will see some withered trees and looks so gloomy. We will later talk about something or related to Soulscape. Just for now, go on, lil'sis, have fun!" And he finished with the warmth from his smile for her.
Ling Lan smiled brightly after wiping her remaining tears. She then waved at him. "I'll be back, big'bro! Wait for me to eat those so good looking delicious fruits!" Then run towards where she thought she can have her first experience with the nature. And decided to dive and play with the ocean and it's life. But before she complete dived below, she heard her brother. "You can think of any way you thought that can make you breathe underwater."
Now, that she thought about it. She can still feel that she can't breathe underwater even though this is inside of the mind or soul, specifically.
She decided to materialize something that looks like a pearl, and gulp it down her throat. Now she can breathe underwater with the function of disabling the pressure that will squeeze her out. What she thought was a function of the said pearl, it was like pill that can make some people breathe underwater from one of the Wuxia/Xianxia Novels that she read from her past life.
"Ohh..." Luna was amused after seeing her diving into the region of deeper ocean. But since the ocean water was crystal clear, everything can be seen from above into the deepest part of the ocean. And because this is his soul, he willed it to be like this. 'I should really try to study those orbs for more knowledge. How come in the future of my past life. There will be things like this, pearl that can make ignore the pressure in the deeper ocean and breathe like a fish underwater...' What he doesn't know that, that thing was only from the Novels and not yet existing... yet.
He then took a sit and crossed his leg. After a minute, 'Damn, those gene agents really help me to cultivate those energy more faster. And now that I cleaned up the last bit of impurities in my body, it doubled the time, and if something didn't happen again that will make my cultivating make faster, I'll be done in 14th months time and start to focus in those memory orbs to make some Emotions and Wills that shouldn't be mine in the first place. But... How can I do that? The fuck!? Emotions and Wills that shouldn't be mine? How can I know that they're not mine in the first place!?... Wait a bit... Goddammit Sherwin! I need the knowledge first for that shit! Lil'sis might emptied her Soul Bead faster than me! And while waiting for me to know how, her Soul Bead will be devour slowly that might affect her future potential... I need to secure the knowledge first than just letting it be in my future self!'
He stop his cultivating and at the same time that, Ling Lan just finish her time for having fun.
"Big'bro, can I go here anytime?" She asked excitedly.
"... Sorry to disappoint you, lil'sis. You can only enter in someone's Soulscape, if the owner is inside of it or have some permission. Yes, you can even enter while the owner is not inside or without permission."
"Then how brother? Like the same I did?"
"Yes. just the same. But before we go into this topic, I'm gonna ask you something... If you found out that some one can enter you're house without your permission, what will you do?"
"Of course, lock the door and any ways that might be possible be broken through to enter."
"Now, if you're still not sure that everything inside of you're house are not safe, what will you do?"
"Big'bro, don't lump me with idiots, please!?~ Of course, I'll make some things that can protect that valuables... Even with the cost of the trespasser's life." She said, and added the last sentence for thinking a bit.
"Good answer. Remember that we're in the era of people that knows the spiritual thing that related to our souls. We don't see some, but it's bound to have some one in this universe, to have ability to enter the soul. Mostly, the soul they knew about is our Consciousness, but no one can be sure of. That's why you need to think and treat your Soulscape as your home and the Soul Bead as your most precious thing than your life. You need to protect it..." He explained and just smiled at her.
"Hmm... Eh... Then what you're telling me is. I can enter your Soulscape with the risk of my life being killed... Wait, so, you can lock them and make some traps or counter measure for trespassers in the first place?" She's a bit shock, she thought that it was like the Mindscape that can be broken through easily and enter it casually. For her, that wasn't the case since there's Little Four and the said instructors in the Learning Mind-Space, they should have a way to know what the outside like, through her eyes or can be anything and protect her.
"Yes, your Soulscape should be like a plain white endless floor with the dark mist around?"
"Yeah, it was like that and still now."
"Try and have a fun in my Soulscape anytime, I can know if you entered or some one... Hmmm... Maybe for six month, you can be like a little girl that nothing else matter in my Soulscape than your happiness... That should be closer to your time for your Soul Bead being emptied. After that I will give you the next surprise, much more like a gift. And we can talk again about this." He said simply while patting her head.
------------------------
After and for two months, the twins did they routine without asking about each other's progress.
For Ling Lan, she already met Instructor one and Instructor nine and mastered the First Stance that instructor nine taught her. That scolded by Lan Loufeng for almost half a day for not taking care of her body more as it is still an infant one, because in her eyes as a mother, Ling Lan was torturing her body with her sleeping body positions. But still didn't say a word about it to Ling Fei.
They somehow got a truce that if one of them want to share just knock on his/her door in the Room of Connected Mindscapes, that seriously need the name to be change into a shorter one.
For Ling Fei, he already knew for how to distinguish the Emotions and Wills that shouldn't be his. He was scolded again by Lan Loufeng for a whole one day, and the only break he got was in the meals time.
Because the first time he dived into one of the random memory orbs that swimming across the lava ocean that he encountered, it was the memories that was focused only for Sherwin's love one, called Anna.
When the time he felt of Sherwin's emotion being hopeless after he saw her love one, tortured by his enemies in front of him and killed with unusual way. Smashing Sherwin's remaining Love.
The time where he felt of Sherwin's emotion that trying to found a 'way' in multiple universe to revive her. Shattering Sherwin's remaining Hope.
The time where he felt of Sherwin's emotion was listed in the Black List, where the universal criminals was listed, and started to didn't care anymore for the lives of any lifeforms that trying to be a hindrance on his way to find the 'way', Abandoning Sherwin's remaining Kindness.
The time where he felt of Sherwin's emotion when he asked Aunt Meng Po if she remembered and encounter Anna, but only got an answered that she's not in the Land of the Dead. Throwing Sherwin's remaining Sanity.
Which led to be unsuccessful of finding the 'way' as the time where he felt of Sherwin's emotions before completely dying from the hand of his traitorous trusted person. Erasing Sherwin's remaining Trust.
Because of the thing related for how Sherwin died and him died was the same, from their trusted person, he unknowingly integrated in the other Emotions of Sherwin, inside of that orb and pulled his consciousness to experience those memories.
His body was been put into sleep for two weeks as he's consciousness was been held by Sherwin's Emotions.
After two weeks, he broke through from integrating of Sherwin's Emotions by using Sherwin's own Will, that grasping, holding, not giving up the Remaining Emotions for that long, to counter the Emotions he felt that shouldn't be in the first place.
Ling Fei felt that he was put into some kind of Time Loop that those memories from the orb are repeating itself. He experienced it for multiple times that made him feel like it's deja vus and started to doubt the Emotions he felt. That's the time he understood the Time Perspective and Time Loop, not the power behind of those things.
After understanding those two types of Time Power was all about, that Sherwin holds, he started to understand those feelings, for how long Sherwin willed himself holding on those remaining emotions that long. Way to long for human's perspective.
And realized that the Sherwin's Will in this orb was born from Sherwin's Emotions.
Even though it was only an accident, he was still thankful for that chance to happened. Now, he knows and experienced what's the true meaning of Sherwin's warning for not never ever try to integrate his (Sherwin) memories, emotions and wills into his (Ling Fei).
Because he might never wake up ever again and will be forever be a prisoner's of someone's memories, emotions and wills. And for the fact that Sherwin was already equal from the Ranks of Universal Space Army, he is way too strong, too much stronger that him, Ling Fei.
And it was good that it was him, Ling Fei, reincarnation of General Antonio Luna. That already had a stronger wills and emotions from his past life. And not his twin, Ling Lan. He thought, even though she experienced the lifetime torture. It was still not enough to nail her wills and emotions compared from the one facing death in the war, and have a mind set of, to kill or to be killed.
And if this happened to other person with lower emotions and wills, he really can't imagine that endless suffering even though those memories, wills and emotions are not from the stranger's life originally.
After that accident, he didn't tried to meddle with those orbs that floating everywhere, for now. Since he felt, he wasted two weeks but nothing than sailing and getting on the flow of Sherwin's Emotions. He started to focus to find the memories that holding the knowledge only, they will always glowing a bit brightly with hues of blue, and at the two orbs that Sherwin said, his cheat in this life.
And he compensated Lan Loufeng for being asleep that made her worried and lonely. He started to cling to Lan Loufeng except when she was in the bathroom. Acted like a child once and for all.
'Now, mother knows a way to be spoiled by her only children's cuteness and fluffiness.' He thought while massaging the bridge of his nose
