Tang Wen realized that his appetite had recently become insatiable, so much so that he could eat anything, giving him an extremely absurd illusion.
At first, he boasted about his unique ability, but soon, something horrifying occurred.
Hunger, uncontrollable hunger.
He ate frantically, first consuming everything in his home, and eventually, unable to bear the hunger, he began eating soil, rocks, plants, and more, stuffing them into his mouth and filling his stomach.
Yet, these things couldn't satiate him. Instead, the more he ate, the hungrier he got, and he became emaciated.
Fortunately, his parents, wife, and friends hadn't given up on him and continued to help him, but the more they did so, the guiltier he felt.
Eventually, not wanting to be a burden on them, he came to the wilderness alone to die of starvation.
After all, with his death, everything would end.
A constant feeling of weakness spread throughout his body, and he knew he had no strength left from hunger.
