The Enigmatic Home of Master Chan

Master Chan: 'Good people always make good decisions. As much as I can predict, Maria is a good girl who loves peace. She will forgive you. But in case she can't forgive you, she reserves her right to give you punishment. In that case, you have to accept that punishment.'

Magician Jack, thinking and replying: 'As you say, I will do, Master. Please tell me where she is.'

Master Chan read something and threw a stone into the water. The water glowed and became like a mirror. Magician Jack and Master Chan watched Maria's home in an apartment live. She was sleeping in her flat. They also noticed the city name board and the area. This brought happiness to Magician Jack's face. The water screen and glow vanished after a while.

Master Chan: "Did you notice everything?"

Magician Jack: "Yes, my Master, I did."

Master Chan: "Look, you have promised. Go and do as I say. If you break the promises you made and if you hurt anybody, I will punish you."

Magician Jack: "Yes, Master."

Magician Jack got permission to leave the forest and started his journey back to his country and the city.

Magician Jack left the Forest of Master Chan, and he was on his way to his country. However, despite promising Master Chan that he would go there just to seek forgiveness from Maria, he still thought of killing her. It seemed that due to the Magician Jack's evil nature, he was going to deceive Master Chan.

On the other side, MARIA went about her morning routine and reached her apartment. She was carrying and loving her son, Henry. He was the only reason for her life. After her husband's death, she became hopeless and didn't want to live anymore. But slowly, she regained confidence in life because of her son.

MARIA finished all her work early, knowing that she had to go to the psychologist for her consultation today. She believed that she might be overthinking ordinary things, especially the things happening nowadays.

At 7:00 p.m., she left home with her baby, Hanry. She left her dog Sootra and her cat behind at home since pets were not allowed in the clinic.

She reached the clinic, sat down in the waiting area after confirming her appointment, and looked around at other people while starting to read a magazine placed on the table.

After a while, a nurse called her name, Maria. She replied, "Yes, I am Maria."

The nurse said, "It's your turn next. Once the patient leaves, you should go inside." Maria nodded.

As another patient came out of the room, Maria entered the psychologist Saim's room. The psychologist greeted her and asked her to sit down. "Wow, that's a beautiful child," the psychologist remarked, asking about Hanery in a loving manner.

Maria smiled, felt better, and relaxed. She replied, "Yes, he is my life," and kissed her son, Hanery.

The psychologist looked at her file and confirmed her name as Maria. He told her to relax and explained that they were here to listen to each other. He encouraged her to freely talk about her life and the reason for her visit to the clinic.

MARIA took a deep breath, feeling hesitant to speak. The psychologist reassured her that everyone faces ups and downs and that they would work together to overcome her worries. These words boosted Maria's confidence, and she began to speak.

Maria shared her concerns about recent events involving Hanry. She expressed her thoughts about things she noticed, like what the street dog did. She also talked about other aspects of her child's life.

Later, she mentioned that she might be overthinking, which was disturbing her routine and causing anxiety. She concluded, "That's why I'm here."

The psychologist Saim listened attentively. He then inquired, "Since when have you been noticing this?" Maria replied, "Just when Henry started walking, around 1 year old."

The psychologist Saim asked, "And how old is he now?" Maria answered, "About 2 years."

The psychologist continued, "So you've been noticing this for about a year?" Maria responded, "Maybe."

The psychologist Saim said, "Maria, if I ask about your personal life, I hope you won't mind?" Maria replied, "Of course not. I'm here to get help from you, so feel free to ask anything."

The psychologist asked, "Where is your husband, I mean the father of this boy?" MARIA replied, "He is no more."

The psychologist expressed sympathy, "Oh, I'm sorry to hear that." MARIA responded, "No problem."

The psychologist Saim inquired, "What happened to him?" MARIA explained that he had accidentally died due to a firearm incident at their home. While sharing this, Maria appeared sad and had tears in her eyes.

The psychologist encouraged her, offering water and tissue paper. Maria took a drink and regained her composure.

The psychologist asked, "How long ago did it happen?" Maria answered, "About 1.5 years ago."

The psychologist Saim observed, "Oh, when this boy was in your tummy." He looked at Maria and said, "Okay, I understand now about your condition. Is there anything else you think is important in your life that you can tell me?"

Maria thought for a moment and replied, "No," hiding the story of the blue angel spirit and its mysteries from the psychologist, fearing he wouldn't believe it.

The psychologist concluded, "Alright, Maria. I believe that because you are alone and have gone through a major tragedy, you need to relax. Try engaging in activities outside of work, such as jogging, sports, and meeting different people. A change in your routine will likely help solve your issues. You can visit me next week to discuss the progress you've made with my advice."

Maria agreed, "Okay, Saim."

Maria left the clinic.

On the other side, in the deep Forest of China, Master Chan was having dinner at his home. While serving food, his servant hesitated and then asked, "May I ask you something, Master Chan?"

MASTER CHAN replied, "Of course, ask. You've been with me for 20 years. You don't need permission."

The servant continued, "Thank you, Master Chan. I'm unsure about your guest, the magician Jack, who was here the day before. When you left him here, he was doing strange things, searching the house and whispering to himself that once he gets the chance, he'll kill all his enemies. I'm worried about his intentions."

Master CHAN smiled at his servant and said, "You are straightforward. I know all about him. I understand that he might not change due to his gritty and evil nature. Even though he promised not to hurt anyone, I know he might harm that girl, MARIA, whom he is searching for. I helped him find her location."

The servant persisted, "Master, you know all this, and yet you provided him with details about that girl. This way, the girl might face life-threatening danger from the magician Jack."

Master CHAN explained, "I gave the magician a chance. Maybe he will change and become a good man. I made him promise not to commit evil acts. I also helped him because I believe that he might spare MARIA."

The servant expressed concern, "Master, what if he doesn't keep his promise and becomes dangerous to MARIA?"

MASTER CHAN responded confidently, "No, she is a powerful lady. I know she won't be defeated by the magician; However, I've also taken precautions. I've sent one of my loyal spirit ghosts to follow the magician. If he tries to harm MARIA or any other living creatures, this spirit will intervene and protect the person in danger because of the magician."

Magician Jack had now started searching for the flat where MARIA lived. He left the hotel in the morning and began asking people on the street about the location of the building in the city.

Finally, he successfully obtained the address of that building from a taxi cab driver
