Li Wei sat in Gu Ze's room.
He poured Li Wei a cup of tea.
Li Wei took a sip, looked at Gu Ze, and asked, "Teacher, what was it you said you remembered?"
Gu Ze gazed at the night sky outside the window and said slowly, "I remembered what happened that night."
"I seem to recall seeing the Snow Bear that attacked my parents killed by a Mage."
"His back looked a lot like yours."
The hand Li Wei was using to hold his cup froze.
His mind raced.
A moment later, understanding seemed to dawn on him.
Li Wei had once entered Gu Ze's dreamscape and helped him slay a Nightmare that had been parasitizing his dreams for over a decade.
He had witnessed Gu Ze's nightmare firsthand.
Within the dream, he had shattered the tragic ending of Gu Ze's memory.
This did nothing to change reality.
The past could not be changed.
But now, it seemed Gu Ze was treating what he had seen in the dream as an actual memory.
This was likely related to the corruption of the dark energy.
