043: Betrayal
After killing dozens people and even his own cousin, Ling Zhao, shows no remorse on his face nor lamenting for what he had done. He knew exactly the consequences.
Once their blood stained his hand, for no longer he threads the earth as a human. And as a Demon he shall become.
Such is a way of life to thrive and survive in this unforgiving world where every person in power seeks the resources to trample and exploit the weak.
After that, Ling repositioned himself to a safer place, investigating the box that he acquired from Mei Lin.
Surprisingly for him, the box also has a similar jigsaw puzzle like the one he had. Upon solving the puzzle, he found a small hole. From the size of it, Ling was certain that the box requires his mother's hairpin to open it.
A strike of brilliant light escaped the box as he opened it. His mouth was agape, knowing what was inside.
