Single Wish: Rise Of The Omniscient Paragon

Chapter 259 258: Thanks For The Bed

Two Months passed after the day Corey saw a vision of his death.

After Nina told him of a way to survive his incoming death, Corey had not stepped out of Rosa's garden for even a second.

In the first two weeks of Corey's seclusion, Divine, Rosa, and Fatty Black Bonez were worried since they had not heard from Corey at all.

The four of them had gone through numerous life and death situation in the death race, so they were the closest to Corey.

Especially Divine and Rosa.

The relationship between Corey and Rosa was now "deeper" compared to before. Even though Corey did not really want to, spending most of his time with a person he did not hate would make his connection with that person deeper.

Three weeks after Corey saw his death, Rosa decided to check up on him along with Divine.

Although, Corey had told them he wanted to fix his damaged mana veins, and mana core.

Divine did not know what treasure Corey found that had the ability to fix his damaged mana veins, but he did not expect the healing process to take a full three weeks.

Even if it took three weeks, he was bothered by the fact that Corey did not bother replying their messages.

The day Divine and Rosa went to check up on Corey, they were ready to see something negative, like maybe Corey's death or something else.

But to their shock and horror, they saw Corey stabbing himself in multiple places with a sword.

Rosa shrieked when she saw something Corey behaving in a suicidal and deranged manner. Although, she was shocked, she didn't run forward and instead looked around in case there was somebody who was the cause of Corey's current condition.

Though, she wanted to act calmly. When she saw that Corey was about to stab his heart, she moved, wanting to stop him from killing himself no matter what.

But to her shock, Divine stopped her, and pulled her back.

She wanted to lash out at Divine for stopping her from stopping Corey, but Divine just shook his head, and with a solemn tone, his words at that time were:

"He's sane, and he knows what he's doing. It's just that he's extremeley… determined at the moment."

Rosa was confused, and she questioned what Corey was determined to do, and Divine's response was:

"He's determined to survive."

Divine's eyes held a glint of familiarity on that day as he looked at Corey, and surprisingly, Corey turned to look at the duo after Divine said those words.

His eyes on that day were blood red to the point that his beautiful dual colored Eyes of Dreams and Nightmares could no longer be identified.

His expression, and condition no longer resembled the Corey they all knew. For all they knew, Corey now resembled a demon who used every single thing he had to crawl out of hell.

The sword in his chest just made Corey's appearance seem more demonic.

The determination, the desire, the hunger, and the murderous intent in Corey's gaze shook both Rosa and Divine to their core.

Even Divine who was familiar with this felt his insincts tingle as he looked at Corey's current expression.

Without waiting for Corey to respond to their presence, the duo decisively left.

Divine told Rosa to check up on Corey once every week just to make sure he was still alive.

(Presently)

Rosa had a worried expression as she sat atop her bed in her bedroom. In her hands was a hot cup of tea. She took a sip of the hot tea, then she furrowed in brows in confusion and anxiety as she remembered the past week.

It had been two months since the time Corey went into seclusion, and the last time she checked up on Corey, she saw him laying motionlessly on the ground.

She had almost gotten the shock of her lifetime when she saw Corey's condition. But, to her relief, Corey was not dead, and was asleep.

Although his body had grievous injuries, and the ground he was sleeping on was filled with blood, bones and flesh, Corey slept like a baby.

She could see how tired Corey truly was, and how far he had pushed himself. Normally, Corey would have moved if she was around him when he was asleep, but this time around, Corey did not move an inch.

She had washed off all the blood and grime off Corey's body, then she placed his sleeping body on one of the beds in one of her rooms.

She thought it wouldn't take long for Corey to awaken from his slumber, but to her surprise and slight anxiety, Corey had slept for far longer than she expected.

Five days.

Five Days!

Corey had slept for a whole five days, and Rosa was worried that Corey had gone into a coma.

She had asked Divine what he should do, but Divine told her that they had no choice but to wait.

If Corey had gone into a coma because of overexertion, then there was nothing they could do.

"I hope he wakes up soon."

Rosa sighed, and just as she did, her ears picked up an extremely faint sound from Corey's room.

The cup in her hands fell, and just before the cup could hit the floor.

Whoosh!

Bang!

The door to her room blew apart, and a figure whistled past the broken door.

A second later.

Crash!

The glass cup shattered as it landed on the ground.

Rosa moved at a fast speed toward Corey's room, breaking whatever obstacle stood in her way.

She was slightly worried that the sound could be due to an attack on Corey's life instead of Corey's awakening.

Although, she didn't think that was possible considering her reputation and status.

Whoosh

Rosa came to a stop before the room she gave Corey. She quickly opened the door, and when she did, she saw Corey sitting on the bed while looking at the window.

A tranquil silence enveloped the room, then Corey looked at her.

A slight smile appeared on his lips, and he said:

"Thanks for the bed."
