<standby mode has been completed. system still detects dangers around host. does host wish to use the system's danger mode?>
danger? i looked around me and could only see my master, the docile worms, and the suction ground. what danger in the system talking about?
i shook my head and thought to the system, 'what about explaining this world to me?'
<understood. there are five realms.
human, nascent, ancestor, saint, and god. within the five realms, there are eight stages of development. foundation, body, spirit, mind, origin, yin&yang, profound, and heaven. host requires a certain amount of energy from each dance cultivation that host completes. as such, host is in the upper levels of the human realm, at the origin state. in comparison, it takes cultivators an average of three months to complete their human realm. host has danced for three months, yet is only at the origin state.>
so you're practically saying i have no talent, huh?
<host just needs to improve dancing skills. in comparison, the previous jin yahui took one month to ascent to nascent realm, and three years to ancestor. he then took two years to reach the end of foundation, just about to break-through to body stage. host has a long way to go.>
what about master?
< ... system is unable to analyze master. >
oh. what about junior brother?
< he is at the yin&yang stage of nascent realm. >
interesting.
"what are you doing, disciple yahui?" master looked at me weirdly as he pointed towards my feet. "i have already released the ground's hold on your feet."
thinking quickly, i immediately bowed to master. "i was contemplating, master."
"oh?"
< host is capable of thinking? >
shut up, system.
"yes, master. junior brother hasn't arrived despite the trouble that i was in. he had most likely encountered danger."
"disciple yahui is correct."
yeah, now that i think about it... what really did happen to junior brother?
master turned to face a somewhat random direction before he said, "let's go, disciple yahui."
i nodded and followed master, flinching every single time i heard the crunch my ruined sandals made with each step. it was disgusting.
"here," master threw something towards me, and i instinctively caught it. looking down, i saw that it was sandals.
but here's the kicker.
they burned me.
< system has detected substance %?@!$. >
why can't you just say demon poison?!
and i know! my f*cking hands are on fire!
i dropped the sandals onto the ground, ignoring the weird look master was giving me. forcefully making a smile, i turned to him. "i don't... er, like the color."
"disciple yahui, it's the same color as the sandals on your feet...?"
fuck. wait, i know!
"but i'm sure that it was the color of my sandals that attracted the worms." i nodded in my mind. i sure am smart!
master gave me a confused looked before he shook his head. taking another pair of sandals out of his ring- which i'm sure was an interspatial ring- he handed them to me.
( ̄□ ̄;)
why are they pink!?
seriously, i just can't win, can i?
*sigh*
at least they didn't burn.
