Mystery Solved

Wind turned another page for the last time, and not even a minute after that he got up from his sitting position. His joints popped as his limbs moved left and right to relieve the tension that accumulated on his body during the city. As soon as his mind refocused on his surroundings, he noticed Fell's absence.

His eyebrow rose as he didn't notice his senior brother leave the room. He didn't think too much about it as his shoulder dropped before, he began stepping toward the door. As he advanced toward the exit door, his heart shook and a strange sensation spread through his body. As if something was trying to rush out of his body, and the more he approached the door the stronger the sensation got.

He focused his will with difficulty on his body in the hope to detect what the problem was. Although he was still new to cultivation, he did manage to get slightly used to his Soul power during Fell's absence. Soon enough he noticed the crux of the problem. By focusing his will power around his body, he managed to vaguely notice that his veins contained small shiny dots. They were latched around his blood cells and seemed to cycle around his body as long as his heart pumped blood.

"What the hell is this?!", he exclaimed as he wasn't aware of those strange things floating around him. "Am I sick?" he thought before denying as he had never heard of a sickness similar to this one.

His mind ran through several analyses before his eyes flashed with a spark. His sight darted all over the room before stopping on the bottle that he drank.

"Could it be? This?!", he exclaimed while darting toward the bottle. He crouched and grabbed the empty bottle that was left where he had ended his physical training. He awkwardly controlled his will as he focused on a few droplets that were left at the bottom of the empty bottle. Soon enough he managed to get the answer he was looking for as he found similar shiny dots in the liquid's droplet.

"Can it be Energy?" he thought as his mind analyzed the event. "But why do I feel as if the energy in my bloodstream is trying to rush out of my body?" puzzlement took over his face as he couldn't put an answer on his questioning.

"Wait, the pulling sensation seems to have receded!" He thought as he looked at his current position. An even more dumbfounded expression appeared on his juvenile face; as he resolved one question after the other, he seemed to encounter even bigger mysteries.

Frustration took over his mind as he knew that he was inches away from finding the truth. A few minutes passed, and the young official lost himself in his pondering his hand looked at the ceiling while his hand massed his temples. Then as he felt the tugging in his veins intensify with time, he slapped himself in the face as a spark of truth flashed through his mind. His leg darted toward the exit door while he cursed himself for his stupidity, "The closer I approach the door, the faster my blood circulates in my body!" He thought as he felt his heart pump blood at an abnormal rate.

His skin reddened as he felt his body's temperature rise under the strange condition. A moment later he arrived in front of the door before grabbing its handle, he hesitated for a slight second before determination appeared in his mind.

"Even If I bother Brother, I don't think he will be too mad at me!" he thought as he twisted his wrist opening the door.

A blinding light flashed in front of him as he lost the usage of his eyes for a slight moment. His hand toward his face as he sheltered his abused irises; his blood circulation broke through the limit as he felt a fire rage through his veins.

Then his vision refocused, and he managed to see him. His eyes saw his Senior Brother was sitting in the middle of the hall, all around him a sea formed from dots of energy rotated around him before rushing in his body. As soon as he saw the dots, he knew that they were similar in nature to the strange objects he detected in his body.

"What the f…?!", he thought as he took a step back in haste. He tumbled while trying to back away and fell on his bottom. His mouth opened widely agape. Not from the pain he felt from the fall but from the impression that the scene would leave in his mind. Forever engraved in his spirit.
