BXBX NOVEL Chapter 19 2nd Transformation
"Ahhhhhh!"
Cries of pain reverberated through one of the hallways of the building where Lothur\'s room was located, echoing throughout the entire floor.
At the same time as this, several of the servants from the Frost family estate were in the vicinity of that room, curious about what was going on.
Only 15 minutes ago, Lothur had arrived at this place being carried by ordinary citizens. Shortly afterward, one of the local doctors called by the family came to attend him, and then the screams of agony began.
And since it was already night in this city, many servants of this estate who had nothing to do were in the area watching the situation in curiosity.
Many of these people did not like Lothur because of the young man\'s unusual personality, and when they found out that he had been almost killed, many could not help but come to enjoy the scene.
And just those who had arrived earlier to this part of the Frost family estate were seeing through the open door of Lothur\'s room this young man being tortured by a doctor.
"Ahhhhhhhh!" Lothur cried out in desperation once again as a woman with violet hair held him down, and the doctor dressed in a black suit used his hands to deal with the broken bones in his legs.
In doing this, the doctor was constantly breaking and reshaping Lothur\'s bones, trying to correct the problems created by the previous \'accident.\'
However, this was not comfortable. Each time the doctor used his hands, Lothur felt excruciating pain and did not even understand how he was still conscious.
As a result, the young man, who had only his underwear on at the moment, was drenched in sweat while a hard-to-describe pallor spread over his entire body.
"Doctor, if we continue, I\'m afraid he won\'t be able to take it." The woman with violet hair, eyes of the same color, and delicate features said this while using her hands to immobilize Lothur\'s upper body.
But the doctor was not interested in his assistant\'s concerns. "It doesn\'t matter. Doesn\'t it, Lothur?" He asked this to the young man in agony, understanding that this was all just this patient\'s own choice.
Finding Lothur in this place, the doctor who was attending him had told him that if he did not get this shock treatment, he could expect severe sequels in the future!
But as a young man who had just started his life in this world, Lothur could not accept something so horrible.
With that, Lothur had asked the doctor to do whatever it takes to at least leave his body in a state where he could recover without worrying about sequels.
No matter how much he would have to suffer!
And with that, the doctor continued.
"Ahhhhhhhh!"
...
While Lothur was receiving his treatment, Viktoria quickly moved toward her husband\'s room, worried that she would become a widow so early in her life.
She had just finished a cultivation session when suddenly a servant brought the news that Lothur was in his last moments.
Thus, she left the place where she was worried sick, while Elise followed behind her with a satisfied expression on her face.
But it was not long before these two reached the side of Lothur\'s room, where the many servants promptly made way for the first Miss Frost.
"What happened here?" She asked this with an icy expression, typical of her, but which at the moment seemed even worse.
As for Elise, she stood watching the dying young man in that room, pleased by his suffering. \'You deserve it, pig!\'
The doctor then said. "First Miss Frost, I can\'t tell you what happened, but this young man was beaten until he had almost every bone in his body fractured."
"What?"
"That\'s just what you heard. But rest assured, your husband should recover after a few weeks in bed..." He said this mournfully, sensing that such a woman might be furious over what had happened to Lothur.
Many people in Peters City talked about the possibility that Viktoria and Lothur\'s marriage was not consummated and therefore had no validity. But this man did not dare listen to rumors, and if his clients wanted to play strange games, he was willing to tolerate them and show his sincerity.
As such, seeing the angry expression in Viktoria\'s eyes, he did not care whether the rumors were true. Instead, he only pretends to feel sorry for her situation, especially Lothur.
Upon hearing this, Viktoria felt irritated, but realizing that Lothur\'s life was not at risk, she managed to calm down a bit.
She did not like being associated with Lothur since this young man had nothing to be proud of or somewhat not be ashamed of.
But for her own purposes, it was interesting to Viktoria that others thought and even talked about her and Lothur as a real couple.
"Doctor, how is my husband doing? Looking at him from here, I feel worried..." She said this, looking at the now unconscious Lothur.
The doctor with the bulging belly and black mustache then laughed. "Don\'t worry. He fainted after having his last bones reshaped by my technique..."
He then looked at Lothur with a certain twinkle in his eyes. "But I must say, first Miss Frost, this husband of yours is kind of tough."
"Oh? Why?" Viktoria asked this as Elise looked at that doctor strangely.
"For a human with no spiritual cultivation, he does have quite a determination!"
"I have dealt with many patients in my career, but I have never seen a mortal able to endure so much pain!"
"It can\'t be!" Elise commented in disbelief, glaring at Lothur\'s sweaty body. "This scumbag doesn\'t have the guts to work on anything. How can he have such a strong will?"
"Humph!" The assistant made a disgruntled sound, thinking that such a servant woman was talking about things she did not know. "Are you doubting my master\'s words?"
"I..." Elise was about to say something, but Viktoria beckoned her to be quiet, and she was quick to obey.
"Anyway, I thank you for attending to us so promptly, Doctor Snee. I hope to see you in a different situation next time." Viktoria said this as she handed over a small coin bag, paying for that man\'s service.
"See you."
...
The night quickly gave way to daybreak in the blink of an eye, with the first rays of light penetrating Lothur\'s room through the small window there.
And amid his dimly lit room, Lothur slowly demonstrated the signs of a person about to awaken as he moved his body and expressed disgust on his face.
But still half-drowsy, he could not be sure what the problem was.
No, in the dream he was having, all he felt was a set of two sensations. One felt as if he was floating in a sea of goo, making him feel a grotesque sensation. But at the same time, a smell of carrion was reaching his nostrils, making his face twitch.
"What the fuck is that?" He muttered unconsciously, feeling that something was odd.
As he opened his eyes, Lothur quickly raised his upper body, sitting up in the middle of his bed as he looked down.
"What the fu..." He said this without realizing it, finally understanding where the strange smell in his room was coming from.
But as he thought more about what had happened to him, the smell and sensation of that goo slowly faded from his mind while a smile formed on his face.
\'It works!\'
\'I can rely on the, \'what doesn\'t kill you makes you stronger\'!\'
[Name: Lothur Ritter]
[Physique: what doesn\'t kill you makes you stronger]
[Bloodline: ****]
[Cultivation: level 2]
[STR: 2.1] [CON: 1.2] [DEX: 2.1] [AGI: 2.9]
[INT: 30] [PER: 11] [WIL: 38]
"Incredible!" He looked down at his two hands, feeling an impressive power.
"Hahaha, I\'ve reached 2nd Transformation!" He celebrated loudly, smiling like never before in his life, not feeling the slightest bit of discomfort in his body.
However, while feeling happy, he suddenly realized that some of his attributes had not increased with his advancement.
\'Why did this happen? Is there some special condition...\' But as he thought about it further, he quickly realized that the improved attributes mainly were related to his physical constitution.
On the other hand, of his non-physical attributes, only his Will had improved after his previous advancement.
\'Got it!\'
\'\'What doesn\'t kill you makes you stronger,\' affect my body because it suffered from the previous injuries.\' He thought about it in silence. \'As for the mental attributes, they probably won\'t evolve in that same way!\'
\'At least that should be true for Intelligence and Perception.\'
\'As for the Will, maybe it was affected because I endured the beating and medical treatment?\' He wondered doubtfully.
\'But this is amazing! Not only did I increase my strength, but I recovered remarkably quickly!\'
\'I wonder if that was something done by the doctor? Or maybe it\'s related to my advancement? Maybe it\'s a characteristic of my Physique?\'
But without much knowledge of cultivation, Lothur put those thoughts aside for the moment and got up to go to the bathroom.
\'Well, yesterday I learned a fundamental lesson...\'
"I don\'t know how to fight!" He muttered, making up his mind to seek the correction of this significant problem.
\'Well then, today I will continue with my plans and try to find someone to teach me combat techniques!\'
