Five Shackles and Six Seals

'Drop'

'Drop'

"Rain… again"

A ghostly apparition can be seen hovering above a large red stone. The apparition was strangely emanating a 'living' vibe from its being. A strange one to say the least.

This is the infamous Blood Sea. A place for fragmented souls, wandering souls, the damned that could not pass, could not live and could not reincarnate. One of the three forbidden places for those who breathe. Yet this particular soul… seems to be a different prisoner of the crimson hell.

"Sighh…"

"I should have never gone to that old liar's place."

"Yes this is supernatural"

"Yes this is strange"

"But why the frick did he send me here?!"

"With NO physical Body?!"

...

'Day by day, rain by rain. This side of the coin that is eternally drowned in pain. A sea who embraced the dark cloud and slept with dead earth. No life, no laugh, a complete picture…. a matching scenery… of the unspoken broken sanctuary.'

'Immortal... oh... Immortal. Remember the beginning, remember the end. Remember… those ants… Steady my lord, for it is already in your hand.'

...

"Ughhhhhhh…. Again…"

"That bastard never told me whose memory this is… uhhhh."

"Nevertheless...thanks to those memories, I now know this rock is the safest place in the area".

"As a doctor, I should probably be concluding all of this nonsense as a super massive fantasy dream, and I will soon be awakened from my deep sleep."

"However it seems that I really can't."

"Sighhh… It's not good either, my memory… this memory is fragmented."

"At least it teaches me a… what should I call it? A road to stupidly kill my remaining existence?"

"Ah…Well… since I have already massively ruined my own life... why not learn it? I am already at my worst."

"Pfft… such big words? The book of the Beginning? Which chuni wrote it?"

...

'Magic'

'What's magic?'

'Is it an ability to control the elements?'

'The cause of terror and panic?'

'Or simply a possible outcome of an enlightenment?'

'The answer is simple.'

'It is an ability, an ability to see, to see who you are, who you truly are in a world you never realized you existed.'

'Like a blind man, walking the earth with no idea as to what's outside and what's inside, knowing no side.'

'Unlike a coin, it has always been an item of two sides.'

'So what's magic?'

'When a man realizes that he himself is the source of all, that's when the magic happens.'

...

"What the… Seriously? Magic?"

"So what is this? Am I having this memory or am I watching this memory?"

"Not a single thing is normal around here."

"Should I do it?"

"Hmmm… I should probably… yep… observe that little white stone for a bit."

Eat or be eaten, a soul who did not know his own place decided to be a white rabbit in front of a starving lion.

...

"So this massive stone is red because of being soaked for too long in this red sea, or should I say a blood sea?"

"But here comes the little white stone with an unrecognizable writing on top of it. Come on, I am a doctor, and even my writing is not this crappy looking." [1]

"Hmmm... Come to think of it, these are maybe symbols."

"I see, this place is the safest area around here… maybe because of this little white stone?"

"…"

"Sigh… Maybe this is right… if I stayed, I might really drown myself into sorrow."

"Now instead of wallowing in self misery, I am Turning myself into a chatterbox."

"…"

"To be fair… I was indeed a jerk who stays in his lab all day long."

"For god's sake, you are a doctor not a scientist… she probably said that in her sleep."

"But… he… Sigh… Really a backstabber that despicable bastard."

"Well… Well… It's no use crying over spilt milk."

"My whole life… I have spent it on… realising her dream... yet I married her sister."

"A fool I must have been."

"Fortunately I did not tell anyone the result of my research."

"If my body literally evaporated during my ridiculous teleportation to this hell hole, the USB was probably destroyed as well."

"If not, that old liar might put it into good use."

"108."

"My dreams… this memory was right... There were indeed 108 hidden points throughout a human's body that can be trained to be familiarized with mysterious energies."

"Nia... You are supposed to be cured with this findings of mine. Yet I…"

"I am really a fool."

"The biggest of them all."

"However… If magic truly does exist... If it is truly capable of altering my destiny… Then I shall use it… To find you… even if I have to repeat it in one thousand lives. Even if I have to oppose heaven for you... I am willing."

"Huh… am I hesitating for? It is only a hardship, it is only a journey, to the mountains I shall climb, to the seas I shall dive."

"Wait for me"

'Slip'

'Slip'

'Slip'

"My next step. My next Journey."

...

'To seek the five elements you must first abandon the elements within you.'

'Earth, Water, Fire, Wind, Ether.'

'Flesh, Blood, Heat, Breath, Cavity.'

'To lift the six seals you must first be enlightened of the enemies within you.'

'Desire, greed, anger, intoxication, confusion, jealousy.'

'Body of mine body, soul of mine soul.'

'Tribulations, Temptations'

'Descend.'
