Two years have now past and master Mei seems more splendid each day . Before the distance seemed like a million miles, however now it seems like a billion .
On this day I saw Carlos flirting with another disciple and master Mei is nowhere to be scene . This is not the first instance I have seen him acting on his deceptive ways, but it is not my place to tell master .
Another year has passed and master has finally made it through to the top 100 after making a breakthrough . Being such a joyous occasion she agrees to pay us double our initial salaries .
Celebrations can be heard all around the manor as some workers are allowed to drink in honour of her acheivement . There is one however that sits by his lonesome and you guest it, it is me .

It is now 15 years and I have now become the official head servant in the manor . I was promoted by master and smiles filled my face as I received the promotion .
I have now earned enough gold coins to return to the city and live like a king . I refuse however because of the knot within my heart . Most servants have moved out and went on to start a family and I am the only one out of the original 20 remaining .
The mirror is before me and I see wrinkles beginning to form . As I look it seems like I have scene my life wasted away before my very eyes . Where has the optimistic youth of the past gone and who is the middle age man I see reflecting?
2 years more have now past and master still looks as beautiful as the day I saw her . On this day she has gathered us all for some important news . Out of all of us I am the most anxious of all and then i got the news I dreaded,she will marry Carlos .
My heart hurts constantly as I keep the smile of a humbled servant and offer my congratulations .
The wedding she Said will be within a month and as those words escaped her lips, I seem to die bit by bit inside . Tell me is it possible to die but still seem to have breath in your body unwillingly carrying you on?
It has finally been decided i will return to the city and enjoy the decades of life I have remaining . After master was informed of my decision she seemed surprise as i told her .
She has accepted my resignation however, but has asked me to stay for a month . I have reluctantly agreed out of one last good gesture .
A week before the wedding date as the rains pelted down on the roof . Suddenly I heard screams of terror around the sect . I looked outside a window to see devil like beings descending and devouring all the disciples of the sect that could be found .
It is the most horrifying scene that one can possible imagine . On the roads limbs could be seen scattered everywhere . In the skies there were flashes of light as human forms could barely be discerned as roars of rage followed .
I was scared and trembling, however i
remembered a person and it seemed to all go away .
"Where is master i wondered? Is she alright? has she made it out safe? She is with Carlos right? At the very least he will be able to protect her" . I stopped caring for my own safety and hoped with all the will in my heart she would be alright .
The massacre continued as the rains became red with blood and the anguish of the deceased cries . They spared no one at all, Women and men were seen as the same and died in the most horrifying way .
I witnessed a man being stretched by a red and purple beast with horns protruding . He screamed and begged for his life and tears trickled down his face . The beast however seemed to laugh until the man was burst apart and his organs started to litter the blood red floor as they fell .
"Isn't this hell on earth" I thought as i attested to the most wicked of acts . My worse nightmares were nothing more than thoughts of beautiful butterflies compared to this .
"Is this what it means to be a cultivator? to take part and contend against such things? . If that is the case isn't being a mortal a blessing . "
