Heavenly Opposers

After three days of unknown slumber Xiao had finally woken up, the world around was still dull and grey while on a throne not far away Teresa sat humming around, Xiao's body was still, sitting cross-legged, nothing about him felt different, the projections around him had long since faded away, and finally Xiao opened his eyes.

Those deep dark black eyes with a hypnotic white in the middle finally opened, no feelings could be seen inside him, just dark null eye was all that opened up, on doing so Xiao just looked forward, and a few seconds later Xiao started to move his body, small cracking sounds being heard as his bones and body adjusted back.

Taking his time Xiao stood up, looking down at his hand he clenched and unclenched his hand, Xiao took a deep breath, feeling in the air, the blood in his body, the power that was filling him, and the rage that was threatening to burst out,

'My personality was being regressed'

Xiao thought, during his understanding, he had got the time to see the things he did in another view and he got to see many inconsistencies with himself, many actions that felt forced and against his ideas, it was then that he understood that his personality, he himself was a regressing in many things, becoming much more childish and playful.

A lot of the things he did wasn't even making sense now, why did his mother, Yun Lan, take Raena, Valencia's mother as her sworn sister just after a single day? his mother wasn't a trusting person, she was a ruthless woman who won't show her happy side to anyone other than her family, then there is Raena who had lost her faith in the world itself, how had she opened up to Yun Lan?

Now there was a higher question here, why did he just leave at it? Xiao wasn't one to leave things to chance, such a change wasn't something that could be shrugged off, it was something to be looked into, it was a serious question to ponder after, yet he didn't even ask his mother how they became sworn sisters, now that was pure bullshit.

If Xiao dug in deeper there are some actions that were starting to look foolish and stupid, he was now one of the strongest people in the lower heaven, why the hell was he staying with the Yun family, taking in their scorn and dislike for his family? after everything they did to his family why didn't he take revenge?

Xiao thought that just because things were of the past he didn't need revenge, was that truly the case?

No! that wasn't him at all, Xiao wanted to pay them all back, revenge was on his list but then why didn't he make any plans for it? why didn't he just kill everyone off and just moved away? and why was he being so lax? the change in Valencia's attitude was just left away, with the thought of leaving it for the future, why the hell should he do that?

If people left everything to the future, then would anyone grow stronger? Xiao knew at heart that issues if possible should be dealt with then and there, it was only after seeing through himself that he understood what a dangerous path he was walking, just the thought of what would have happened in the future was making him weary and the one he had to deal with the most would be....

'All-Seer, back then when we made the bet, did you know what I showed you?'

[Not completely but I had an inkling]

All-Seer replied,

'When I taunted you, I wasn't just the one acting was it?'

Xiao asked as his expression turned calm,

[Yes]

All-Seer replied in an emotionless voice, making Xiao smile in a ruthless manner,

'Will you tell me why?'

Xiao asked,

[No]

All-Seer replied but Xiao didn't retort, he kept his silence for some time before he asked again,

'Will you bring harm to my family?'

[No, even if I can't reveal everything just know that I am your ally]

All-Seer replied, its choice of words making Xiao smile coldly, his eyes flashing with several thoughts,

'Ally.....huh'

Xiao could read through the inner meaning wrapped around, back then when he moved to take in All-Seer, it was a dumb move, his chance of success was just about 50%, he could have died or he could have lived, it wasn't his choice to gamble with his life on a wimp, especially not after he had gotten the life he desired.

Yet he ended up taking that path anyway, his choice and his feelings, his desire they were somehow being manipulated with, Xiao focused on his hand as he willed something out, thus under his blinking eyes a small red cube manifested, its appearance looking dark and sinister,

'You wish to control me?'

Xiao questioned, during his inner awakening, he had found this within his soul, hidden too deep and well, during the time of his self-awakening he had delved into who he was, his soul and his self and he found this within him, this would have normally being something impossible to take away, as it had fused with his soul,

'If I am not wrong, this was placed on me when I met that so-called god'

Xiao's mind flashed back to his second death, where the 'God' gave him a second chance, if he comes to think of it, his actions from then on were a bit weird, he wasn't completely himself, if it wasn't for the chance of self-awakening and his gift over the power of the soul, this cube would have stuck to him, altering his entire personality without him ever knowing.

But what was affecting Xiao was the thing with his mother, was something done to her? Xiao's mind started to run around with the attitude that his mother was showing, in every way she was normal it was only weird when Valencia was involved,

'Valencia, is it related to her?'

Xiao's mother loved him too much to disrupt his wishes, if he asked for something she would do it without any restrain, yet just the day after he told him not to involve with Valencia and her mother, Xiao's mother ended up being sworn sister with Raena, there's also the sudden insistence from Yun Lan, her innate desire to set him up with Valencia, even after he expressed his distaste.

According to his mother's true behavior, she would have cut Valencia from her heart the moment Xiao spoke that he didn't like Valencia,

'Valencia are you involved in this?'

Xiao questioned but in the end, the answers couldn't be found here, he needed to head back and start to make true countermeasures, it was also time for him to plan out his revenge in the future, there would be a blood bath in the lower realm.

The Xiao right now was different than before, the limiters and controls that were placed on him were removed, and his broken personality of his was now combined into something more,

'Thanks, Reaper'

Xiao thanked the one person that let him change, if it wasn't for this, even he couldn't imagine how he would have ended up, a tool to the one that gave him his 'gifts', in the current situation Xiao couldn't deal with All-Seer, it was a part of him and he couldn't act on it without permission.

The good thing was that due to their bond All-Seer couldn't lie to him or show him false information because during his self-awakening he did something to mess with this ally of his and he is sure that All-Seer had felt it,

'So now you can't let me die right?'

Xiao asked with a thuggish smile,

[You got me good here]

All-Seer replied, how couldn't it when Xiao had made it that if he died that All-Seer would cease to exist, Xiao had enough of being played around with, it was time that he starts to play the same game back.
