BXBX NOVEL Chapter 675 Old Man Plane
With a light \'Kacha\' sound, the door opened after a few seconds, and a young lady no more than 16 years of age walked in.
The moment her eyes got used to the dim lighting of the room, her eyes instantly tuned blood shot as she spotted a figure lying helplessly on the bed, looking as though he was dead. "D-david!!!" the words choked from her mouth and she rushed towards the figure like a maniac.
"Wait!!!" A scream of terror and shock shouted out loud but Matilda didn\'t seem to be listening to the scream as she rushed forwards without care for the concequence of her actions.
With a low thud, she slammed lightly on David\'s lying figure, balling her eyes out as she cried in with her face buried in David\'s chest.
"WAA!!!"
Laura\'s mocking face froze and the young servant\'s terrified expression changed. "She actually survived being in close proximity with the young dojo master!!!"
"Matilda, go call your brother. He needs to get breakfast before heading to school."
This was during the first two months David had been adopted to there family.
"Mom! The maids can fetch him instead. I\'m not going up to that freak\'s room!" Matilda who was 16 years of age immediately complained, shaking her head.
"Tilda! Don\'t use that foul language in your brother! He\'s your brother now and you will treat him as such!" The violet eye lady - Mrs Hills instantly reprimanded with a soft frown.
"Go call him... Now!" Even when she was angry, Mrs Hills graceful countenance weren\'t interrupted a single bit.
Matilda remembered her expression drooped as she dragged her body to the stairs, she kept muttering voice of complaints all the way until she got to a room opposite hers. Pounding on the door, she yellled.
"David! Come and ear or do you want me to bring your food to you like a servant!?" She harrumphed coldly and proceeded to leave. He wasn\'t going to answer anyways, so there was no need to wait for a reply.
A few seconds after the young lady left, the door suddenly opened up and a young man with golden hair and deep crimson eyes like that of blood cane out from the room.
His dressing was casual and his facial expression nonchalant. Placing his hands in his pocket, he walked the large hallway and then down the five meters wide stairs. The mansion literally screamed rich!
"You are here. Come on, quickly have your breakfast you are getting late for school already." Mrs Hills never allows the maids to prepare breakfast for the kids, but take joy in doing it even with how busy she\'s been with her work.
"Mom, there\'s no need to watch us eat. You should go now since you are getting late to the office." Matilda offered with a smile that bloomed much like her mother\'s.
Mrs Hills also smiled but there was an expression on her face that said \'I will be here until you finish the food.\'
"David, is the food okay?" Mrs Hills suddenly asked.
David\'s head was lifted from stuffing his face and he nodded but before he could do anything, Matilda snorted, saying.
"He will literally eat anything you make. Why bother asking him? Sometimes I wonder if his tongue works in direct opposite to the norms!"
"Ouch! What\'s was that for?" Feeling the pain on her head from her mother\'s flickering finger, Matilda pouted.
"Saying your mother\'s food taste\'s bad is rude." Mrs Hills scolded.
Matilda grumbled in pain, munching on her last piece of steak, she grabbed her bag and immediately got up.
* * * * *
This was one of the most vivid memories of David that had been going through Matilda\'s mind for the past few months and they were memories filled with vast amounts of regret. She never hated David and although he looked annoying when with his countenance filled with vastless amount of confidence that makes her want to punch him, she has taken David as family overtime especially during the time he defended her against the overbearing twins in her class.
That had won her over. From then on, she began seeing him as a source of dependence. Since her mother parted with her father, the only other male figure within the house was Simon the Butler. With David present, he took on the mantle. Now, seeing such a person lying motionlessly and helplessly on a medical bed with tubes of blood in his skin, instantly put Matilda to tears. There was no doubt about it that Mrs Hills reaction would be even more severe. It was a good thing she didnt come with her in fear of bring rejected by the dojo.
Lara as well as the young servant didn\'t utter a single word amd let the young lady wail and ball her eyes out. This happened for about 20 minutes before Matilda finally calmed down. Sniffing, she turned towards Lara and asked. "Isn\'t he supposed to be in a hospital receiving treatment? Why is he here instead, his condition will worsen! It\'s no wonder he hadn\'t woken up yet. This place isn\'t giving him the best treatment."
At this point Matilda\'s face gradually turned cold. There were so many questions she wanted to ask but above all were questions about David\'s welfare.
Lara, known for being hot-blooded didn\'t intend to take this lying down. She replied immediately with her own words. "Your weak self cannot begin to imagine what realm David had reached. You actually really think the best hospitals with limited sights and abilities can heal injuries from a Celestial? You better watch your words before I kick you out from here. Blood related or not, if i decide you wouldn\'t lay your eyes on him for eternity, it shall be so because I deemed it so."
"YOU!!!" Matilda was basically a spoiled princess, hearing someone had the power to restrict her apart from her mother and David, of course she would be livid. But then she calmed down upon remembering where she was.
"Harrumph! You win." Just as the tension was starting to fade, the door opened once more and the dojo master immediately walked in, followed by an old man who seem to be on the verge of death. The old man has a complete full hair and beards, but they were entirely white. His eyes weren\'t visible at all through his wrinkled skin which fell, covering the two eyes, it was a wonder how he could even see without stumbling. His face also couldn\'t be seen especially with his saggy cheeks swaying with each movement he made.
Despite all of this, the man wasn\'t at all slow in his steps. He followed the dojo master quietly and steadily until they arrived before David. At first the dojo master was confused seeing Matilda being so close to David without having her blood sucked, reducing to a pilw of ash in the blink of an eye but this wasn\'t the most of his worries. "Here Mister Plane, this is David, the young man I told you about." The dojo master pointed at David on the bed.
Although sceptical, the people let the old man approached David with held breathe. The old man was already close to death anyways and was also unknown therefore, if he dies, they wouldn\'t feel to bad about it. Several quacks had claimed the ability to cure David but to no avail only to have their blood drained by the starvation from David\'s cells.
The old man stopped a few inches from David and watched the young man\'s bony structure with a look of astonishment on his face. "Fascinating, deeply fascinating. Utilizing the genes from various mythical beings to create a wonder body that can withstand and multiply its strength, now this technique has gone beyond the realm of the ordinary. I\'m afraid no one would be able to replicate such mystery without the luck this man possess." Without further ado, the old man stretched out his hands to touch Davids wrist.
In that moment, David\'s body awakened and a violent roar that threaten to rip though space reverberated from within him. His pores opened up and enlarged to twice their previous size. They formed whirlpools within them, with strong suction forces erupting from within them.
As though they had expected it, the others weren\'t surprised but Matilda was shocked and the blood drained from the colour of her face. Was that the reason Lara was mocking her and didn\'t chose to prevent her from touching David. "So Cruel." The young lady shivered and whispered.
The old man was even more surprised. "Formless Cells!? T-this is the realm even Celestial must reach if they want to advance to the Universal Energy State." How could the old man not be shocked by this revelation. David\'s cells weren\'t confined by its original structure, which means he could actually other bodies and shape with his cells and genes. It could be seen since David turned the in his body cells to countless mouth just to consume his prey quickly. And also, David could form extra arms in battle, this was basically what David uses his Formless Cell ability for. If the old man knew about the crude way David had treated the ability, he would cough out blood for sure.
