Chapter X: Bánh trôi nước

Translator’s note & disclaimer: The title of this chapter is the name of a famous Vietnamese dessert. It’s roughly translated to “Floating Cake.” However, we chose to keep the name in Vietnamese as the English translation doesn’t work perfectly. The dessert is also the name of a poem by Hồ Xuân Hương, an 18th century Vietnamese poet. Here is some extra information on the poem if you’re interested

Quotes by Nghịch Tử  (?)

“Someone once said man’s biggest fears could all be summed up with two words: “What if?” Sometimes, a vague possibility of the future was the most dreadful terror, far more threatening than any tangible threat.
Because that was when one’s imagination would turn against them.”
Nghịch Tử, Eyes

“So, at that moment, even the naked eyes could see the spirit who’d been helping him, and he had no idea how to explain it to Vũ Thanh.

Thoughts shifted like electricity inside his head. From the bottom of his heart, he knew only one way of resolving this situation. Điền Mục whirled around, and jumped back in Vũ Thanh’s direction, while pointing at the looming figure covered in powder, speaking in a terrified but determined voice:

“Hey! Who are you? Why are you following me?”
Nghịch Tử, Eyes

“So, um… why… did you tried so hard to save me anyway, even after… I made life harder for the both of us?”

Điền Mục’s reply took on a rare serious tone:

“Huh? Oh, because there is a superhero in all of us. We just need the guts to… eh, actually, speaking of ‘guts’…”

He suddenly started rummaging through his backpack, took out an enema pill, pushed it into Vũ Thanh’s palm, and grinned from ear to ear with excitement:

“Hey, so how did the food of the dead taste to you these past few days anyway? Was there any trace of earthworms or dirt in them? Did they taste like they were rotting or decaying in any way? I’ve always wondered but never got a taste myself!”
Nghịch Tử, Eyes
