The Beginning of Two Worlds

"I am an ancient god."

Shanghai, summer of 2016. That was what the drunk girl Lu He met in a bar said.

Lu He ignored her. To be precise, he thought she was suffering from chuunibyou.

In 2018, Lu He’s business failed, and he returned to Gaohe City to live with his parents. Every night, the upstairs neighbors were noisy, as if they were throwing a party. "Just put up with it! It's been like this for weeks. We're used to it." His parents were both timid people.

Lu He couldn't put up with it. He wasn't a coward who was afraid to stand up for himself. So one night, wearing nothing but his pajamas, he stormed upstairs and knocked on the door. A girl opened it.

"What is it?" she asked.

"Could you keep it down? You might not need sleep, but other people do!" Lu He snapped.

"I know you. I think we met in 2016." The girl nodded thoughtfully. "Come in and sit down. I need your help with something."

"Do you even understand what I'm saying?" Lu He felt the girl in front of him was practically insulting him.

"It's just a little favor," she said, walking back into the room and leaving Lu He alone in the doorway, exposed to the cold night air. "It probably isn't anything serious, right? It's not like she'll tie me up." After thinking it over, Lu He went inside... Quite ironically, this changed his boring life.

Let this serve as a remembrance of that time.
