Facing each other, he covered them with a blanket and stroked her back until she fell asleep. He knew that below the protective iceberg, a little monster that was compelled to bring perfection to every given task, existed. Surrounded by high towers, it was locked beyond the dark. In this aspect, they were no different.
Ziek activated the interspatial ring, which couldn't contain life. Nevertheless, the size of the storage was big enough to contain a small village! There had to be a way to regain his superpowers.
He looked at the woman in his arms, betting all sweet potatoes that she was keeping the zombie virus somewhere. The question was, where? A silver bangle with their picture inside popped up in his mind... He gave up on the idea immediately. She wouldn't give it to him even if he begged on all fours.

A war between two neighboring countries was about to occur. When two are fighting, the third usually wins. Bing Shi would very much prefer to be the third.
Before she could leave the kingdom, Bing Shi returned to the capital and stopped yet at another destination. Hasan's slave shop had to be closed due to having nothing for sale. As a slave trader and trafficker, Hasan registered many men as his guards.
After picking a small army for her next journey with Hasan's assistance, she walked around the great hall, passing by the males and a few females she interrogated on her first day. She surveyed their interactions. In groups, they were reading and taking notes behind the desks.
In this slave shop, another group of people resided, people with the highest capacity. Studying from morning until night, their mission was to pass the imperial examination to become future scholars, in the hope of uprooting the country internally.
Put the right men and women together, and great things would happen. In their free time, these highly educated people had to come up with designs of tools that would significantly reduce the workforce, which included going from hand production to machines. By industrializing the world, the demand for slaves would be reduced.

° Back to the time before Ru Quan left to continue on his journey...
° Knowing that Xuan Mu always slept for only a few hours, Bing Shi wore a nightgown for him to get easier access to her body, so he could play with it in case she wanted to continue her beauty sleep.
° He never went overboard despite her having an unusual talent. Both were light sleepers. Even a fall of a paper would wake them up. However, as long as he didn't utter a word, Bing Shi would still be able to get her rest by going into a half-awake and half-asleep state, similar to meditation.
° ♡ ° Kissing her neck in silence, Ziek's left hand crept under her dress. Squeezing her breast with his left hand, he formed it into different shapes and sighed in bliss. He loved touching and caressing her soft skin. Lulu Tan's were tiny; Bing Shi's were medium. But woah, these were on another level. His palm was not enough to cover even half of one.
° ♡ ° After falling in love, the size would stop being important. Their preferences still remained though. What was his preference? For Xuan Mu and Ru Quan, they didn't care as long as it was Bing Shi. Ziek, on the other hand...
° ♡ ° To hell with being mature, he liked them big!
° Some bītch of a classmate once lectured him for body-shaming a fat girl. He refused that girl's confessions because he preferred slim girls with big chests. The same bītch later laughed at a short dude for having a small dīck. Yes, that dude was a notorious bully, but so what? Double standards at its best.
° Nothing could kill his boner faster than hypocritical bītches like that. Speaking about fat girls, he was now curious about the chubby Bing Shi during her school days. He heard that her teacher always seated his Bing Shi next to bullies or bullied kids. Ah so cute; what he would do to go back in time and be her classmate.
° ♡ ° Sliding up her gown, he tilted his head down. Using his tongue, he started to lick her nīpple. Sucking and playing with it, he closed his eyes, enjoying his time. His right hand squeezed her other breast, the soft and fluffy feeling calmed down the turmoil in his heart. How unlucky. When it was finally his turn, her period came knocking on the door. (He would never admit that he only loved to cuddle).
° Ziek knew that those two were a part of him, but their personalities, likes, dislikes, and ways of thinking were clashing against each other, mostly with that old man. When he thought that he had gotten rid of Ru Quan for eternity, that old man dared to ask Bing Shi for help!
° He and Xuan Mu worked so hard to gain her hug for years, and Ru Quan got it on their fourth meeting?!
° ♡ ° Sulking, he unintentionally bit her nipple.
° Why was Bing Shi spoiling Ru Quan so much?!
° 'Because I didn't behave like a damn āsshole on our first meeting,' said Ru Quan.
° "You have zero right to speak, old man. Go, and burn in the deepest pits of hell for not rescuing my Bing Shi sooner," Xuan Mu retorted, his voice laced with venom.
° "Go fuck yourself. The guy who dumped his own girlfriend doesn't get to lecture anyone," Ziek fired back, 'And you, the Ancient Relic, you should have killed yourself the moment you said you love someone else over Bing Shi.'
° "Pfft, that's rich coming from someone who once called Bing Shi 'ugly' and cycled through girlfriends like diapers,' Xuan Mu shot back, a disdainful smirk on his face.
° "Ouch," Bing Shi held her nightgown and gazed at the man that sucked on her nipple as if his life depended on it, "O.U.C.H..."
° Ziek's closed eyes opened wide, tilting his head up, he cursed in panic, "Fū..no...I...Sorry...argh!" he groaned in pain, losing control over his identity.
° His personalities started a massive quarrel, wanting to take over; blaming one another for hurting Bing Shi again. None of them deserved her.
° They were just a burden that kept adding to her problems. The paranoia and headache kept on increasing. If they cause any more stress on her, they'd be taken away by the HQ! What nonsense was he spewing?! She was spoiling all of them as a whole!
