Chapter 18 (1/2)

POTATOES ARE THE ONLY THING THAT’S NEEDED IN THIS WORLD! Chapter 18

What exactly does a single step of an ordinary human signifies?

I discovered the secret hidden deep within after carefully thinking it through.

Human, no matter what our races were, have always moved endlessly forward from the beginning of our birth. No matter what methods were used; no matter what mood we were feeling, we always have to keep moving forward.

Even if we are feeling feeble from head to toe, and all four of our limbs are cramping. The old man whose name is time will always push us from behind our backs, to continue the way forward, a step at a time...

At times, we who have ambitions are unwilling to resign ourselves in moving at a slow speed and want to challenge ourselves. Thus, we lift our legs higher, spend several times more efforts, and begin advancing forward with a type of method that surpa.s.ses [Walking].

And that is - [Sprinting]!

But regardless how much distance was ran, we deserve to be proud of it as that was the result of our efforts. Even if we ran slower and lesser than the others, we still did advanced forward by a big step!

This is a form of prove which witnessed the challenge of oneself.  This is a struggle for refusing to accept what reality presented to us. This is a mark to indicate that we have surpa.s.sed our past selves.

That's right! In other words, the conclusion is!

Regardless of the distance you have ran, and regardless of the time you were running. As long as you have tried your best, then no one have the rights to mock your ability.

I, challenged myself, and have won against myself.

I am worthy of respect!

Hmph... As I expected huh...

Alas, I stopped my running steps.

Panting heavily with a bright red neck, sweats from my forehead dripped down with a fast rhythm onto the road between the fields.  The small area of stains evaporated rapidly by the scorching earth.

My vision began to blur. My legs that had ran out of strength were no longer able to support my feeble body. Right at the last moment before I was about to fall to the ground, I placed my hands on my knees to prop myself up.

With a corner of mouth raised, my vision turned towards the direction of the starting point that was behind me. And what I saw, was a distance that was out-of-reach from me.

Ah... I have indeed, broke through my limits.

Holding on to the sense of pride that I have for my own ability, my link between my consciousness and body became weaker and weaker. Without much resistance, I allowed gravity to defeat me. That is because I know that, even if I fell to the ground, I am still a great person that is able to support both heaven and earth; a person that should be proud of himself.

Aah...

In the instant I fell down, my whole world was wrapped by a sheet of pure whiteness.

In the snowy white world, a beam of divine and pure white radiance shone onto the top of my head. From within a crowd that consisted a few hundreds potatoes spreading their eight-winged wings, a pure and holy archangel appeared right before my eyes.

She conversed with me using her lovely voice. Although her holy white radiance blocked my view of her face, my convicted faith however, tells me that she is... the divine G.o.ddess of potatoes.

Aah Ah... Are you finally here to take me away?

Is that so... Can I finally be exalted from this world, and enter potatoes heaven?

My life is... really quite short.

I laid down on the ground with a smile on my face, there was no traces of worry within my shut eyes.

”Listen here~ xiao ge... You only ran for 30 metres, and you are done?” The voice that interrupted my sweet dream was from Rei who I have originally mistaken as the lovely voice of the G.o.ddess of potatoes.

Look here, isn't there any understanding and tolerance left anymore between human relations.h.i.+ps? By exposing me so bluntly, you are literally forcing me to bash my head against the potatoes to commit suicide.
