Peter felt as if he had had a wonderful dream.In this dream, all his desires can be satisfied and all his fantasies come true.And all this does not require him to pay any price at all. All he needs to do is to desire more things, and then he can enjoy it all.

In this dream, he acted as he pleased like an emperor.There is countless money, the most luxurious sports cars, immense power and the admiration and envy of others.There was even a scene that made him feel flushed, reminding him of his childhood sweetheart and a scene with a girl he had just met, which made him feel a little inexplicably ashamed.

However, just as he became more and more immersed in this sweet dream, a loud noise like thunder appeared.Peter was horrified to find that countless cracks gradually appeared in his dream, and the fragments of the dream that had been divided began to decompose automatically, turning into a rather uncomfortable dark mist, which penetrated in one's own body.

Peter lay on the ground unwillingly, grabbing the earth with both hands, as if this would prevent it from disintegrating and disappearing.But all this is in vain.Not long after, another loud noise like thunder appeared, and Peter also twitched in pain.He seemed to feel that the things that made him feel extremely happy were being continuously taken away from his body.He finally couldn't help shouting.

Peter opened his eyes suddenly, and what he saw was an unfamiliar ceiling.He looked around and found himself lying on a sofa in a dark room.He struggled a few times to get up, but gave up after a while.

An uncomfortable feeling that was difficult to describe in words came from his brain, making him groan involuntarily.He felt that his temples were experiencing bursts of pain as his heart beat, and something cold seemed to be put into his body, making him shiver.An inexplicable feeling of sadness almost made him burst into tears, but in the next second it disappeared without a trace.

What made him most uncomfortable was the inexplicable feeling of emptiness.He felt as if something had been forcibly dug out of his chest, making his whole body feel empty, and the happiness and beautiful emotions in his body were constantly being sucked into this ever-expanding in the black hole.For some reason, Peter suddenly felt like vomiting.

He endured various discomforts in his body and reluctantly tried to sit up.But a pair of big hands quickly pressed on his shoulders and pushed him down again.

"You're awake, at least you're quiet. Go back and lie down and have a good rest. You're in a bad state now." A somewhat familiar voice sounded from behind Peter. Peter turned around and saw a man with short black hair. young man.

He was quite handsome, and although there was a hint of heroism between his brows, this was well covered up by his elegant temperament.As soon as Peter saw him, he felt something was a little strange, but he couldn't tell what it was for the moment.

He looked not much older than Peter, maybe 23 or [-] years old at most.Peter thought he looked familiar, but he couldn't remember it.The memory of last night was a blur in his mind, and he could only vaguely recall some scattered fragments.

"Take a rest, you are not suitable for activities now. Even after lying still for more than four hours, your heartbeat is still more than 110 times per minute." The man placed a glass of water next to Peter. "All you need to do now is drink water and rest."

Peter looked at his face, took a sip of water from the cup, and then turned his gaze back to the ceiling.He couldn't think much at all in his confused mind.Seeing that he had no intention of speaking, the young man spoke on his own.

"When I checked your wound, I was really frightened. I thought I was going to carry a dead body out of here." The young man shrugged, picked up his cup and took a sip of coffee.

"However, your... talent is really enviable. The injuries on your body can already kill most people. But now you have survived the dangerous period just by relying on your own recovery ability. ...It’s really enviable.” The young man said in a calm tone.Just then, Peter saw a bruise on his neck. "But even so, what you did last night was unwise. You had no training, no preparation. There is nothing you can do except make yourself die faster."

At this time, Peter came back to his senses. He looked at the young man's face and remembered the memory of last night.

Gradually returned to his own mind.

"You...were the masked man who stopped me" Peter asked and the young man nodded.Only then did Peter notice the other person's dull eyes and their chaotic focus, and he suddenly understood what he had found strange before.

"Can't you see?" Peter regretted the question as soon as he asked it, but the young man didn't care at all and nodded quite naturally.

"Damn, I almost made a big mistake." Peter closed his eyes, and as the memory returned, the pain in his brain became more and more serious. "I almost beat up a blind man."

As soon as he finished speaking, Peter laughed at his own words.But the young man didn't smile or say anything.He just sat there quietly and looked at Peter.After a while, Peter's laughter finally stopped.He raised his hands and covered his eyes and forehead.The young man sighed, as if he wanted to say something.But in the end he still didn't speak.

"I killed a few people." Peter's tone was trembling. He didn't want to know the answer.And the young man answered his question simply the next moment.

"Seven, one of them died from his injuries when the ambulance arrived. The remaining few had no fatal injuries and should survive."

Hearing this, Peter took a deep breath. He didn't take away his hand from covering his eyes, and didn't say a word.The whole room suddenly fell into silence.The young man didn't say anything when he saw him like this. He just drank his coffee slowly and seemed not to mind the silence at all.It took more than ten minutes before Peter spoke again.

"Where am I? Who are you? Why did you bring me here?" Peter asked these three questions in succession, and the young man thought for a moment before he began to answer unhurriedly.

"My name is Matt, you can think of me as one of your friends. As for this... it's just a small apartment that no one lives in for the time being. We are just borrowing it temporarily, so don't make it too messy. Stay tuned. We'll have to clean it up later."

"What about the original owner here? I don't want him to call the police after he comes back and bumps into the two of us."

"Probably went on a long trip. No one has lived here for more than two weeks." Matt shrugged nonchalantly. "It happens that the possibility of coming back today is very small. But even if this happens, I can take you out. This was not my original plan, but your injury at the time seemed to be unbearable, so I could only Find a place to stay nearby."

"It seems you know a lot." Peter coughed twice, and a sense of dizziness spread from his mind again, and he could only calm down a little. "But you haven't answered my last question yet."

Matt was silent for a moment, seeming to organize his words. After a while, he slowly spoke.

"What are you doing this for?"

"Why?" Peter didn't understand for a moment.

"What I'm asking is, why do you, a child who is not yet an adult, dress up like this at night and fight for someone you don't even know?" Matt asked calmly, but his slightly trembling hands were Betrayed his own thoughts. "If you don't get any benefit from this process, then what are you trying to do?"

"Your question is a bit difficult." Peter smiled and closed his eyes for a while before getting the answer. "Actually, it's nothing. I've always felt a little ashamed after I got this ability. Such a powerful ability fell into the hands of a person like me, and I felt like it was buried." But now that I already have this ability, then Isn’t it natural to use it to help people who need this ability more than me?”

"It was a good idea, but you messed it up," Matt said meaningfully. "To save one criminal, you kill more people."

"Yeah." At this point, Peter fell silent and nodded. "I did mess up."

Matt nodded, and after thinking for a moment, he smiled at Peter before speaking.

"Very good, at least in this aspect, you are better than me." He said with a smile. "I have a question. No, it's a request. You currently lack training and actual combat, and you also need to learn a lot of basic skills and abilities. I am willing to hand over everything I know to you. Are you willing to learn?
