"I... I'll do anything. Please, please letgo!" "Oh? Is that so?" the merchant asked as he smiled. "In that case... givemore money." "Well.... Well...." "If you can't... I'm sorry, then..." Val was so scared that he did not even dare draw in a deep breath. Just then, a figure suddenly materialized behind him. The door to the wooden shed opened.
A burly man walked through the door, dragging Val behind him. He threw Val into the shed.
"You were being followed, you idiot," the burly man said.
"I did it on purpose. I was wondering who it was. Turns out it was him." "Do you know him?" "He's that woman's child." "Did you kill him?" "No, no. There's no need to be so brutal. We're merchants.” When Val regained consciousness, he realized he was tied to a chair.
"You! Who are you?!" The merchant hurried over upon realizing Val had woken up.

"Ah, no, no." The merchant hurriedly shook his head. "You've misunderstood me. We don't harbor any ill intentions and merely wish to make a deal with you." "Deal? I don't have any money!"

Allowto show you one more thing." Then, a flash of gold appeared in the merchant's hands.
"God gave this to me, and it can cure all illnesses. Isn't that amazing?" "God? All illnesses? You must be joking! Such things do not exist in this world!" "No, sir. Just because you do not see it, does not mean it does not exist. Do you understand that? Your mother is a remarkable woman. In order to save you, she decided to... give up all her 'spiritual power in one got was extremely touching." Content belongs to en.kikistories"Spiritual power?" Val knew perfectly well what that meant. His mother had once said that a human was made up of three parts- their body, their soul, and their spiritual power.
In other words, a person's spiritual power consisted of their consciousness and volition. It was part of one's soul, and it was irreplaceable.
