But that did not last long.
every thing changed when the only person he listen to, loved and trusted betrayed him for no apparent reason.
He slowly broke down, a lot of emotions he didn't understand hit him all at once, it felt like his world was distorting into something he could no longer recognize.
Before he could fully grasp that the love of his life had rejected him in the worst possible way, the world he had always called his home also rejected him, telling him he had no right to call it his home, and unless he save another world and earn that right back, he was not allowed to go back home.
Although this was not exactly how things actually happened, that was how Hao Shen perceived it.
Hao Shen felt truly drained emotionally. He also recalled the embarrassing situation between himself and Kevin. Hao Shen didn't know what to say about their current circumstances, his eyes automatically turned to look at the neglected Kevin that had been standing at the side the whole time watching him.
Although Hao Shen had noticed someone staring at him when he woke up, he was just to occupied with his thoughts that he didn't bother looking. It was only when he purposely thought of that fellow that he noticed him.
He told himself yesterday that he would clarify things with Kevin, he was tired of this little misunderstanding between them, so he would clear things up the moment he saw him.
But now that he was calm and Kevin was right in front of him, he was not sure of how to put it.
Although he was pissed off by the fact that Kevin still saw him as a female, he was still more scared of what will happen if he didn't put his words nicely.
To be honest the only reason he was still scared was because he had never been good with his words, for example, right now he just wanted to say 'hey, Kevin I'm a man, so deal with it' he was sure that would be his one way ticket to hell.
As long as he's not planning on dieing so quickly he has to think things thoroughly, but first of all he had to ease the awkwardness in the room.
Hao Shen and Kevin had been staring at each other for a while now, and Hao Shen couldn't take it anymore and broke the awkward silence with a "Good morning, how was your night".
As soon as he spoke, he notice how dry his throat was, with that thought, he somehow forgot about Kevin again and just kept wondering why his throat was like that, He was completely unaware of Kevin's anxiousness.
Kevin had gone to the forest earlier and brought back the fruits Hao Shen ate the other day, he kept it next to her anticipating her reaction when she saw it but to his confusion, she woke up and didn't even look at the fruits or himself, she didn't even say a word and just sat there looking at her laps.
As if she was pondering on something, Kevin was also looking at her intensely trying to figure out what she was thinking about when she suddenly moved her attention from her laps to him which startled him.
Her eyes were a little cold and unfeeling, which got Kevin nervous 'why is she looking at me like that did she figure something out?'. Her gaze was so scary that he wanted to just tell her all that had happened last night but he somehow found a way to suppress the fright he felt and didn't say a word afraid of what would happen if he did.
In other to comfort himself and to feel less afraid, he told himself that Hao Shen was only testing him with her eyes trying to get some words out of him.
that was why Hao Shen was only staring at him but not saying anything but it was coincidentally after he thought that, that Hao Shen also decided to break their awkwardness.
Which to Kevin it was like a death sentence. 'she said good morning! is she referring to what happened this morning when I was happy that she was hugging me? I thought she was sleeping and she also asked how was my night! Does she also know what had happened at that time as well, am I going to be in trouble?'
What he felt she said was [I know you did it just admit it.]
It was quite obvious with the way she put her sentence that she knew everything, this made Kevin feel that Hao Shen had the ability to know what was happening around her even when she was unconscious.
Even if he wanted to explain himself, it was already too late, although the situation wasn't that bad and shouldn't get him in trouble, he was just scared he would get in trouble for not telling her about it sooner.
He saw that Hao Shen was distracted by something, so he decided to get away first and think of what to do later but before he could make a quick get away, he suddenly froze as his attention was grabbed by something in Hao Shen's hands.
Hao Shen felt that his throat was too dry and he couldn't stand it so he stood up and went to get his backpack and brought out a bottle water before uncapping it and taking a few sips.
He had completely forgotten about Kevin's existence again, when his attention was finally caught by Kevin's dumbfounded gaze, he didn't bother to hide anything instead he took a few more sips of water before closing it and putting it back in his backpack.
The reason why he wasn't afraid of being found out was that, if someone was able to see a man's dick and was still able to say that it's owner was a woman, then surely, with how good the persons brain is, he would still have the ability to create a story in his wonderful mind that would convince himself that this was totally not strange at all.
It might seem that Hao Shen was taking too big of a risk in revealing this, and that he was being reckless, but this was how Hao Shen had always been.
He was never an overly cautious person, infact the only thing he had to be cautious about was to not let others know he liked Feng Qi, and he did a terrible job at that.
But obviously Hao Shen was still angry at the fact that Kevin still thought of him as a woman, and he also wanted to prove to himself that he looked nothing like a girl and that it was just Kevin who's brain was wired differently. But even if he knew what he felt, he was unwilling to admit it.
And in the end, Kevin didn't disappoint Hao Shen at all as his brain had already started doing it's job for Hao Shen.
He started wondering how Hao Shen could own a clear water and it was even more clear than any he had seen without having even a speck of sand in it.
the beast world had so many tribes and species and all of them had their own special abilities and some beast men had stranger abilities than the others, some had more than one special abilities and those really rare abilities owner end up at the peak of the food chain.
But all of them no matter their abilities or talent, they rarely have the ability to control water.
And since all beastman especially the females needed water, beast men with that ability was seen as very important to every tribe.
Just like Vince, he can once control a bit of water but he is very important in the cougar tribe both as a witch doctor and as a beast man with water ability.
In every tribe, the beast men with the water ability will most likely become a witch doctor. But that does not mean that all witch doctors have the water ability, that it to show how rare it was to find one with that ability.
But no matter how rare the ability was, their were still two tribe with almost all their tribes men having the ability and they could easily controlling water and sperating it from the impurities and those are the sea beast men and snake beast men.
Their control over the water ability was stronger than that of any beastman walking the land, with the control of the sea beast men stronger than that of the snake beast men.
And after the other beast men from other tribes realized this, it slowly became a normality for them to trade with the sea beastman for some clear water.
But as time passed the sea beast men became more and more demanding and complacent.
