"Ugh… S mental strength is the worst…" Ethan cried as he, Imir and Celrei all lie down weakly on their beds after their class today.

  Their last class is with Wei Shi, and it is whole afternoon. So, Ethan, Imir and Celrei all felt like they have nothing to live for after Wei Shi all suppressed them using his mental strength.

  Reine rubbed his temples. "Damn it…" he cursed as he also lied face down on his bed. "I'll definitely get him!" he gnashed his teeth in anger.

  Shi Jiu, although has A mental strength, but his spiritual strength soothed his brain. This is what Shou Ji taught him, Yi Bing and Huo Ling. The other students also have suffered under Wei Shi's mental attack. Among them all, only Yi Bing, Huo Ling and Shou Ji weren't affected since Yi Bing and Huo Ling have higher mental strength than Wei Shi while Shou Ji has the same rank in mental strength with him.

  "Tomorrow is the weekend…… I will stay in the dorm. My house is far." Celrei spoke. "What about you?"

  "Don't ask me this. The dorm has already become my home." Imir wryly smiled. Celrei and Ethan patted him on the back.

  "I will be staying. My family said to experience life in the dorm." Ethan answered. "I'll accompany you." He told the two.

  "I will also stay." Reine answered. He still has a task of uprooting the enemies hiding in the dark.

  "Then, it's only us who will be going home." Shou Ji spoke.

  They all looked at him. "Why?" they asked.

  "Our home is near." Shou Ji answered and told them the address. "We'll invite you next week if you want. For now, we have some things we have to do." He told the alpha trio before he looked at Reine who nodded. They know that Reine trusts them and that they don't restrict their movements as a sign of trust.

  "Oh! That's great! Expect us next week!" the alpha trio said.

  "Sure." Shou Ji said as he, Yi Bing, Huo Ling and Shi Jiu packed their bags just for a show. Then, the four of them bade them goodbye and left.

  Just as they entered the elevator and was about to cast a spell of illusion on the cameras so that they can teleport, a hand reached out in front of them, stopping the elevator doors from closing.

  "Hello, students! We meet again!" it was none other than Wei Shi.

  Shou Ji. "… -_-+" I knew it… he thought as his eyes narrowed, but he forced a smile.

  Yi Bing, Huo Ling and Shi Jiu. "…" fck, that was close! They thought and coldly sweated. They were almost exposed as 'wizards'! Spells don't exist in this word!

  They looked at Shou Ji, not speaking. Naturally, it should be Shou Ji to deal with Wei Shi!

  "Good evening, instructor Wei." Shou Ji greeted.

  Wei Shi, already knows that he is uninvited, shamelessly boarded the elevator. "You students are too fast. If I don't know that you are hurrying home, I would've thought that you are going to commit a crime." He told them with a smile.

  "How can instructor know that we won't commit a crime?" Shou Ji asked.

  Yi Bing, Huo Ling and Shi Jiu. "…" fck. What a strong smell of gunpowder! They thought and coldly sweated as they tried to reduce their presence.

  Shi Jiu worriedly looked at Shou Ji. He is confident that Shou Ji wouldn't lose in a verbal fight and also knows that Wei Shi wouldn't harm them. But, he felt that there is something strange here… he looked at Wei Shi. Why does he feel that this man is familiar? Not as Shou Ji's acquaintance, but something else…


  "Huh? You are going to commit a crime?" Wei Shi asked in surprise.

  "We might." Shou Ji nodded. "Like, killing a certain uninvited instructor who keep following us so we can't commit our original crime." He answered.

  Wei Shi laughed as if he didn't notice the real, killing intent that Shou Ji is directing towards him. "Then, wouldn't I be doing a good deed from preventing you in committing the crime?" he asked.

  "So, instructor Wei likes to sacrifice himself for the common good?" Shou Ji sharply asked.

  "I don't. But I know someone who does." Wei Shi answered.

  A deafening silence fell. Shi Jiu can't understand their riddles but the strange feeling increased. Yi Bing and Huo Ling understood what Shou Ji and Wei Shi are talking about. Shou Ji was a general so he definitely is a hero. Wei Shi's words right now of 'preventing' them in committing the crime is what Shou Ji was doing before as the general. So, he is implying that he learned it from the general, and not because it was his duty as a soldier. The general weighs more than his duty.

  Ding. The elevator finally stopped in the ground floor and the doors opened. Shou Ji walked out and Yi Bing, Huo Ling and Shi Jiu… as well as Wei Shi, followed behind him.

  Shou Ji gnashed his teeth in anger while Yi Bing, Huo Ling and Shi Jiu remained silent. Shou Ji knows that they are still in the Chel Military Academy's premises so he controlled his emotions while Wei Shi coolly followed behind them.

  Until they reached a certain street where there are less people.

  "What do you want?" Shou Ji asked and turned back to Wei Shi.

  Wei Shi stared at Shou Ji. "… you don't remember our previous life?" he asked.

  Yi Bing, Huo Ling and Shi Jiu fell silent. Wei Shi really remembered the first life. And him telling this to them indicates that he had already found out that Shou Ji was the general.

  "Will we be expelled in this world?" Shi Jiu worriedly asked to Yi Bing and Huo Ling.

  "No." Yi Bing answered. "This world already has a problem itself, and right now, we are talking to your reincarnation, who is an external soul. Since rebirth has already happened, we won't be expelled." He assured them.

  Shi Jiu sighed in relief. He felt worried about Shou Ji. Shou Ji's soul is weak right now and who knows how long will he wait again to go in this world, or cross any world. Also, they don't know if there will be a punishment from being expelled in this world, and if they will suffer repercussions. If this happens, Shou Ji might die…


  Meanwhile, Huo Ling just calmly watched from the side.

  "I don't." Shou Ji answered after he heard what Yi Bing said. Thus, he finally admitted to Wei Shi that he is the general. "What did Yu Yan exactly do? How was he reborn? Why did it happen? And… why did he kill me?" he asked as he looked at Wei Shi in the eyes. So, he caught the pain that flashed in Wei Shi's eyes as well as regret, remorse… "You don't want to answer?" he asked.

  "General." Wei Shi called as he took in a sharp breath. His eyes reddened. "I don't know how did he exactly reborn, nor why…" he honestly answered.

  Shou Ji has already expected this. "Then, why did he kill me?" he asked.

  Wei Shi didn't answer.

  Shou Ji sneered. "So, you also want to kill me?" he asked.

  "NO!" Wei Shi shouted. Then, he froze. "I'm sorry…" he apologized. "Yu Yan is jealous of you." He said.

  "He was my student." Shou Ji said.

  Wei Shi clenched his fists. "That's not it." He muttered. "Yu Yan… is jealous of you because I am… closer with you." He explained and looked expectantly at Shou Ji.

  But, Shou Ji's brows knotted. "Of course you'll be closer with me since we grew up together. He is just an outsider, despite he was my student." He said. "Is that all?" he frowned. He can't believe he was killed in the second life just because of a petty reason.

  Wei Shi's heart sank when he saw Shou Ji's expression. Yi Bing and Huo Ling noticed this while Shi Jiu's suspicion increased.

  So… Wei Shi and Shou Ji were actually lovers in their first life. Yi Bing and Huo Ling thought as they looked at Shou Ji's back. They can't help but feel pity towards Wei Shi. In their second life, because only Yu Yan has the memories of their previous life, he prevented Wei Shi and Shou Ji from becoming lovers, making Wei Shi have a one-sided love. Meanwhile, Shou Ji is career-oriented so he buried himself in his work thus he didn't have time for romance.

  Yu Yan successfully broke up Wei Shi and Shou Ji, and then killed Shou Ji in the end to prevent any possibilities of the two being together again.

  "Fck." Huo Ling lowly cursed. What a dog-blood plot!

  Yi Bing side-eyed him but he didn't say anything.

  "How will you deal with Yu Yan?" Shou Ji asked Wei Shi.

  "I will kill him. He owes you a life, as well as me." Wei Shi answered. He owed me a lifetime, because I lost the general, and his love.
