Chapter 884: Tian Chenyu's Awakening

"How is my son, doctor?" Tian Aowei asked after the doctor they hired to check on Tian Chenyu.

"Although there is nothing wrong with him physically, I am afraid that his mind is… lost…"

"W-What is that supposed to mean?! What will happen to my son?!" His mother immediately began crying again.

"He must have experienced something extremely traumatic very recently. That event has stressed his mind to its limits, putting him into a coma. I don't know when he'll wake up… if he'll even wake up… We can only hope for a miracle from the heavens at this moment." The doctor sighed.

"How can that be?!" His mother began crying even harder.

Even though Tian Chenyu was in a coma, his mind was actually conscious, so he was able to hear the doctor's words and his mother crying.

'What's the point of waking up if Ai Rong won't be there when I wake up…' Tian Chenyu sighed inwardly as he fell deeper into his consciousness.

Days turned into weeks, and weeks turned into months, but there were still no signs of Tian Chenyu waking up from his coma.

Eventually, a whole year would pass without Tian Chenyu waking up even once. However, despite that, his family never gave up on him and took care of him daily.

One year turned into two years, and within the blink of an eye, three years have passed since Ai Rong's death. _{ƒгeewёbnovel.com}

"How long do you plan on sleeping?"

One day, an unfamiliar voice resounded inside Tian Chenyu's head, waking his consciousness a little.

'Who's there?'

"My identity isn't important. What's truly important here is you… Your future. Do you really plan on rotting away in your room as a nobody?" The voice returned.

"So what if I rot away? It's not like I have anything to live for anymore." Tian Chenyu sighed.

"How pathetic. You lose a woman and you give up life?"

"Shut up! Ai Rong wasn't just any woman! She was my woman! My childhood friend! My fiancee! My love!"

"Is that why you merely stood there when your love was slowly being consumed by that demon?"

"Is that really why you couldn't even utter a single word?"

"Is that why you didn't even try to help her?"

"There was nothing I could've done in that situation! I am a mortal! I am powerless! If I had the power…"

"So you're telling me that if you had the power that you would have saved her? I don't believe it. You may have been powerless, but you didn't even attempt to help her. You weren't just powerless. You were also spineless— a coward— and utterly useless."

Tian Chenyu couldn't refute the voice's ridicule and could only silently accept the mockery.

The voice would continue to mock Tian Chenyu for the next few minutes before disappearing.

However, the voice would return shortly after.

"I will ask you again. If you truly had the power to defeat demons… What would you do then?"
