Team World Chapter 52
“The Demon Forest, huh? Sounds pretty interesting.” Huangfu Ye chuckled slightly.
“As long as you can pass the trials in the Demon Forest, your strength will definitely improve a lot. If you dare to come, then come with me.”
With that, Strong Dragon Gray turned and left.
Huangfu Ye did not hesitate and followed Strong Dragon Gray's footsteps.
A whirlwind blew up, and the two disappeared.
…
The Demon Forest.
Surrounded by dense forests, blocking out the sky, there was a sense of gloominess.
Strong Dragon Gray and Huangfu Ye appeared on a small path in the forest.
“This is the Demon Forest. From here on out, it’s up to you. Good luck.”
With that, Strong Dragon Gray vanished, leaving Huangfu Ye alone in the forest.
Huangfu Ye took a deep breath, relaxed his mind, and surveyed the surroundings.
No wind, no chirping of birds, only a terrifying silence.
Moreover, Huangfu Ye felt a special aura, a terrifyingly gloomy aura.
A ghostly figure appeared in front of him, gradually solidifying, becoming a person identical to Huangfu Ye.
Huangfu Ye frowned.
“Is this an illusion generated from within?…”
It actually formed a person exactly like him.
“What illusion? I am you. I am the true you deep within your heart.”
The illusionary Huangfu Ye spoke. Their voices were exactly alike.
The only difference was that the illusionary Huangfu Ye’s voice was somewhat cold.
It made people feel goosebumps.
…
On the other side.
Strong Dragon Base.
Solin and the other Strong Dragon members gathered at the base. A stream of light fell, and Strong Dragon Gray appeared.
“Iron Crusher, did you send him?” Solin asked.
“Yes, his fate is now up to him.”
“But the Demon Forest is so dangerous, will Night be able to pass the trials?” Amy Kagetsuki said anxiously.
Night's strength is indeed formidable, but this Demon Forest, he has to fight himself!
“If he fails, will he die?” Daigo Toujou asked.
Strong Dragon Gray nodded. “Yes, if he cannot overcome his inner fear, he will die in the Demon Forest.”
“No, I have to go find him! Send me there too!” Amy Kagetsuki urged.
Strong Dragon Gray shook his head. “You can’t help him. Anyone who enters the Demon Forest can only rely on themselves. If you go, perhaps Huangfu Ye can come out, but you will never be able to come out again.”
“How can this be…“
Amy Kagetsuki clasped her hands together.
All she could do now was pray for him.
“Please come back alive, Night…”
…
The Demon Forest.
Huangfu Ye looked at the other version of himself. The frown on his face softened, and he chuckled slightly. “Actually, I never really knew what I was afraid of. That’s why I wanted to come here to see. I didn’t expect to actually see my own illusion.”
The illusionary Huangfu Ye chuckled coldly. “Not knowing what you’re afraid of? What a big mouth. Actually, you’re afraid of dying too.”
“Afraid of death? As a transmigrator, what is there to be afraid of?”
“That’s what you say, but when you truly face the fear of death, you’ll still be afraid. Don’t try to argue. I told you, I am you, deep within your heart.”
“Is that so?”
It made some sense.
But who wasn’t afraid of death?
There is an instinctive fear of death. That is normal.
But, as long as you dare to face it, then it’s no problem.
“So, you’re so hypocritical. You’re too hypocritical to exist. Only one of us needs to exist!”
The illusionary Huangfu Ye rushed towards Huangfu Ye, punching him in the face.
Huangfu Ye stood still, letting the punch come at him.
The illusionary Huangfu Ye’s punch missed, or rather, it went straight through him!
What?!
The illusionary Huangfu Ye was shocked.
He can’t hit him?!
Is he not afraid?
How is that possible?
Huangfu Ye turned and looked at the other version of himself, who was gradually becoming ethereal. “What you said just now, the fear of death is instinctual, but it doesn’t mean it can’t be faced. As long as you dare to face it, it’s not a problem.”
“Also, I’m very clear. As long as I don’t feel fear, you can’t hurt me.”
The illusionary Huangfu Ye was surprised. “I didn’t expect that you could actually do it. Although we know the plot of this world, you actually managed to be fearless. It truly took me by surprise.”
With that, the illusionary Huangfu Ye’s body gradually became ethereal, merging with Huangfu Ye’s real body.
The surrounding environment changed. When he reappeared, he was already back at the Strong Dragon Base.
Everyone was still discussing his situation.
“Night!”
Seeing Huangfu Ye appear, Amy Kagetsuki immediately rushed forward and hugged him.
“You’re back?!”
“So fast!”
Solin and Strong Dragon Gray were stunned. The two looked at each other.
It had only been a short time since they sent him into the Demon Forest, and he’s already come out!
