Chapter 5284 (five thousand two hundred and eighty-four) sharp

The Gray Hand asked again: “And then?”

“I… told them… I said that they… shouldn’t be able to feel my coldness over there. But they can see that it’s dark over here, just like I see a little light over there.” said the man.

The Gray Hand Man asked, “Have you received a response yet?”

“Still nothing.” said the man.

“What’s on your mind?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“I got even angrier. I… talked to them like this, but they… didn’t respond at all. I, a person from Tiecang, was talking to them!” said the man.

“Do you think they can hear you now?” asked the Gray Hand.

“It’s not that I think they can hear me.” The man said, “But when I talk to them… and get no response, I feel like I’m a… a Tiecang person and I’m kind of embarrassed… Even if they can’t hear me, it’s still… infuriating.”

“Is it infuriating even if they can’t hear it?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“Yes.” The man said, “Because at this time I also thought of… I am… a Tiecang person… Under such circumstances… it is so difficult for the Lanjia people to pay attention to me… This… This itself is infuriating enough.”

The Gray Hand asked again: “So what did you do next?”

“I spoke to them in a sharp tone again.” The man said. “Are you not as scared as before?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

The man said, “Because there is more anger, it seems… it seems that the fear is not as much as before.”

“What did you say?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“I told them that… they couldn’t compare to me, and they would never be able to compare to me.” The man said, “I also said that although I could see a little light there, I… I knew I was in darkness, and I would only think… that everything was dark. Their little light was simply… insignificant. I would never think that I was… in the light. But they… couldn’t do that. They were scared when they saw the darkness… on my side, and they ran away… They… they were still in that little light.”

The Gray Hand Man said, “You think they are not near you at this time?”

“I think… it’s possible that they are not near me. It’s just a possibility.” The man said, “When I said they were ‘scared away’, actually… what I meant was… they… whether they ran away in person, or… or just their voices ran away and they don’t dare to continue talking to me, they are all… scared away.”

“I see. Even if I was talking to you just now, if I don’t talk to you now, it still falls into the category of ‘scared away’ as you said.” The Gray Hand Man said, “At this moment, do you think they are scared out of their wits, or are they just too scared to speak?”

The man said: “I thought at the time that they might not be able to hear anything, but no matter what, I could only think that they were not talking. Otherwise, in such a dark and cold environment, I didn’t know how I could continue to hold on.”

The Gray Hand asked, “What’s next?”

“I told them again…it seems that I was right not to…mention that little bit of light. According to their little bit of light, it was not worth…mentioning at all. I told them again…the world…the world will be swallowed up by darkness…” said the man.
