Capítulo 14: Chapter 14: Different Realities
"And how's that?" Yang Zhai asked while frowning, he didn't understand what Bae Ah was trying to say. According to Yang Zhai, Cho Byeol didn't change at all.
And how did he make the comparison? Simple, after hearing what Bae Ah said, and he also knew about Cho Byeol's personality, it could only be of someone who didn't get much experience.
"Tell me, if you know about something, won't you think about that thing or try to adjust things in a way, which comforts or benefits you? Unconsciously,"
"For example, if you are lost in a jungle and find a correct way. But you discover that there are two paths to get out of that jungle. One path is easy and without any hurdles, but is long, dirty, and muddy. The second path is clean, but risky and filled with beasts. Which path would you choose?"
"You would choose the one which is easy and which also benefits you the best, right."
"But for some reason, if you choose the path which is filled with beasts even after knowing that you might not survive, what would happen then? Your thinking would be different from before, knowing about the beasts of that path, right."
"If you didn't know about the beasts and went on the second path without knowing, you would be ignorant about that path and would be thinking about something else, or you would have some other emotions. Or some other thoughts. You might even feel happy that you would get out of the jungle,"
"But if you know, you would be cautious or won't even go on that path. But if you go, you would be thinking about the beasts, your thinking would be completely different. It would also change your speed and process. Your every step would be different,"
"You might even worry that you would die or something else might happen. Even your happiness would be different from when you didn't know"
"This is exactly how Cho Byeol is right now, she is walking on the second path, she doesn't want to change, this thought in itself is a change. Before her personality was cheerful naturally, subconsciously, without any worries or other things,"
"But now, her personality is adjusted after her thought of not changing, filled with worries, consciously created. Her thoughts are different from before. Before, her consciousness hadn't experienced betrayal, but this personality of hers knows about the betrayal."
"The current Cho Byeol has different thoughts than the past Cho Byeol. Her way of thinking has changed. She has changed. Everything changes, even the time changes. This is a changing world, she can't escape its claws." Bae Ah said, and she explained with sadness. She pitied Cho Byeol.
When Yang Zhai heard this, he was in deep thought, this was something he hadn't thought of before. Even though he was experienced, his thinking was limited.
He was enlightened. When he thought of this, he had another thought as well. And that thought was the theory of parallel worlds from the earth. About how a new world can be created with different choices. But he knew that it wasn't possible. How could a different world could be created with different choices, or maybe it was possible.
From every person's perspective, reality is different. Yang Zhai thought of a chair; a person could only see a single angle of a chair at a point, if a chair is placed between the four people, every person would see a different side of the chair. Reality was also like this, every person sees it differently. If someone kills a man to save millions of people, it might be considered a good thing, but some people would also consider it a bad deed. Some would consider it a scheme against the man, who was killed.
Yang Zhai had many other thoughts as well. He thought of how the world changes. These changes could affect the world with different effects. He thought that the change was a broad subject. It contained many different views and realities.
Everything changes, then is fate changeable as well? But from what he knew, from the earth's concept, fate was an already decided factor. According to this, everything was already decided. Or in other words, if someone comes back from the future, then that future would be fate. In simple words, a person's future would be his fate. Yang Zhai was lost in his thinking and even before he could think of something else, he was awakened from his thinking by Bae Ah's voice.
"So, what should we do now?" Bae Ah asked Yang Zhai while looking at Cho Byeol nervously.
Cho Byeol's condition was getting worse with every passing day. When Yang Zhai heard Bae Ah, he stopped thinking and looked at Cho Byeol. He could always think about this later.
"You said that in the past it took her so much time to get better because previously she got like this because of the mental stress, right?" Yang Zhai asked Bae Ah while looking at her.
"Yeah, and what about that," Bae Ah answered.
"Then she might have a chance to get better in a few days. Think of it carefully, previously nobody could cure her because she had lost her mother, and it caused her mental stress." Yang Zhai said, looking at Cho Byeol
"So, what you are trying to say is that; because this time it has nothing to do with her emotions, she might be able to get better with some medicines." Bae Ah said while thinking.
"Yep, that is exactly what I'm trying to say. I don't think that she got like this because of the mental stress this time. It might be related to her tiredness. You said it yourself that her body is fragile, that's why no method could cure her, even though there are many methods to heal one's mental condition as well." Yang Zhai said.
"Even if that is true, the techniques and Kas we possess aren't able to heal her. Where can we find a strong cure for her right now?" Bae Ah said worriedly.
"Don't worry about that. When I discovered this cave, I got lost and accidentally entered a cave entrance, which possesses a Rank five material. And I could sense that it was the Sand of Moisture, a powerful Rank five material, which can cure any illness below Rank 6. But because there was danger around this material and also because it hadn't fully matured, I didn't try to obtain it."
"But now that we're in need of this sand, I'll go and pick this sand up for her. I am sure that she will get better after using the Sand of Moisture." Yang Zhai told Bae Ah about the Sand of Moisture. It was a powerful Rank five material, which could cure any illness below Rank 6 and converts that illness into the form of moisture to leave the body of the person using it.
"Oh, then why don't we go and find that sand," Bar Ah stood up and was ready to go with Yang Zhai.
"No, I'll go alone, you don't need to come with me," Yang Zhai stopped Bae Ah from going with him.
"But why, if we go together we would have a better chance of obtaining that Sand," Bae Ah insisted,
"You're right, but I don't know how much time it will take for us to return, it might take some days if something unexpected happens, and if something happens to us, Cho Byeol would be left alone, and it is not good for her to stay here alone in this condition. Think about it carefully, what would be the meaning for us to find that sand if something happens to Cho Byeol. You should stay here and take care of her, while I will go and find that sand." Yang Zhai explained to her carefully about the situation, he wanted to go alone in case something unexpected happens.
"Ok, but be careful and don't overexert yourself while finding the Sand," Bae Ah finally gave up and agreed to Yang Zhai for him to go alone.
"Don't worry, I will be careful and don't leave the cave alone until I come back," with that said, Yang Zhai turned around and was about to leave when he stopped at the entrance and gave a glance at Cho Byeol and said,
"Take care of her," with that Yang Zhai left the cave he was staying in to find the cave he needed to go to.
This cave's inner structure was very complex. While entering from the outside, this cave possessed only one entrance. But when someone enters, after traveling for a while they would discover that this cave possessed many more entrances inside the cave, and all of these entrances possessed even more entrances. There were hundreds of entrances. This was also the reason Yang Zhai felt so safe in his cave.
Currently, what Yang Zhai was doing was finding the right cave entrance he had discovered in the past to obtain the Sand. It was going to be difficult to find the correct entrance because it had been many years since he had discovered that entrance that possessed the Sand of Moisture. He only remembered the way, but not the exact entrance. He needed to find the right entrance because many of the cave entrances possessed dangerous beasts and Kas habitats.
Yang Zhai kept on looking but couldn't find the right cave entrance. Fortunately, his luck was quite good, and he didn't encounter any cave entrances filled with dangerous beasts, the ones he found the most had even more entrances, or they were empty. But he knew one thing for sure, and that was that the cave which possessed the Sand of Moisture was in these entrances, and he didn't need to go any further in the cave. So, he didn't enter the cave entrances, which possessed even more entrances.
