CHAPTER 7
Can You Do It?
----------------------------------------
「Dad!!」
『President-dono!!』
The moment when trembling stop and everything went calm, the girl who was with Shigeo started to run towards Mr.President, it seems that she was his daughter.
Everyone who were at the chamber also started to surround me and Mr.President from everywhere.
So I put down Mr.President on the ground with care and started to walk outside the crowds, while at it everyone was thanking me and giving me their bows.
Personally, I didn't feel comfortable 'cause I didn't do anything other than to watch their fights....
Hah...
Anyways, when I looked at Kitsune, she was healing the Soldiers and Warriors from their fatal wounds and it seems that she healed everyone here and they were the only last remaining ones left.
「.....」
I-I forgot! That I was going to buy Mangas and books before heading to training ground
Darn it.... I-I-It's too late now.....
Why they have to attack, when I was in the city?! I'm going to make them pay for it, when I meet them again!!
「What's the matter, Master?」
Hm? I guess I was lost in deep thought and stayed on one place for too long that, Num, came to me.
「Oh, I just forgot to buy Mangas and Books but it's too late now and it isn't a big deal, after all.」< Sub >
「I see. I don't know it will help or not, Master. But when I was saving civilians, some of them had gave me their Mangas and Books and many more for saving them. I thought you might read this, so I took it from them, here, Master.」< Num >
While saying that he puts his hand into Storage Pouch which was hanging on his hip and takes out a lot of Books and Mangas and handed over me.
「...You're a lifesaver, Num. I can't thank you enough.」< Sub >
「You're kind words are enough for me, Master!」< Num >
Well basically you did save me from my boredom, though. I mean, you gave me more than 60+ Mangas and 107+ Books.
..? I feel like someone is watching me....
And when I looked around, the one who was watching me was, Kitsune, she was making a pout face and I feel like tears will burst out anytime from her eyes.
And I think I kinda understand why she is making that face, I should talk to her through thought communication.
(Kitsune, I was thinking if you could treat the wounded ones who were at other chambers too. Then I was thinking to fulfill your one wish, if I can, that is. So can you do it?) < Sub >
(!!? R-Really?! T-Then, I'll finish this quickly!!) < Kitsune >
(Before that, I have one condition to make.)< Sub >
(Of course, Master, just tell me!) < Kitsune >
(Don't use your Healing Magic at all, use the potions now.) < Sub >
(Are you sure, Master? I thought we're going to sell them, but if that's you're wish then I'll do it happily~!)< Kitsune >
(Yeah, cause I don't wanna let others know too much about us.)< Sub >
(Understood, Master!)
Well, there are 10 chambers side by side and I don't know if she have enough potions for all of them but if she runs out of potions, then I guess I'll let her use Healing Magic.
Oh yeah, and there's one chamber were prisoners are kept, and the Soldiers brought them here through underground tunnels, which Mr.Jim had told me when he was showing me around.
(Oh, Kistsune? Before that, heal Mr.President first and did you cure the poison from the boys?) < Sub >
(Understood, Master! And as for the both boys I've already given them the antidotes so they should be fine, but since they've lost too much bloods. I think, it's likely that they'll awake in 2-3 days.)< Kitsune >
(Understood. Then, contact me when the boys or Mr.President awake.)< Sub >
This novel's true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there.
(Please leave it to me!!) < Kitsune >
After talking with Kitsune, I turn my attention back to Num, who was patiently waiting for me to finish talking with her.
「Num, shall we go outside for a walk?」< Sub >
「Of course, Master!」< Num >
I looked around and everyone who were at this chamber wasn't paying attention on us, instead they were all looking at Mr.President state while Kitsune was healing him.
「Move out of the way and let some air in, you fools!」< Kitsune >
I guess... she was handling the crowds well. So I guess I can teleport now.
「Num, stay close.」< Sub >
After saying that I teleported both of us outside the chamber, near were the explosion had taken place few moments ago.
But when we're out, dust was everywhere and it was hard to see clearly.
And when I looked at Num, he nodded in response and take out his staff from his ear, which he called 'The Golden Cudgel*'
----------------------------------------
The Golden Cudgel or Ruyi Jingu Bang/Ding Hai Shen Zhen is known as one and only weapon which The Monkey King Use.
You can search for more info on Wiki.
----------------------------------------
To which it was kinda long name for me, so I called it only 'Staff'. And he once told me that the staff complies with his wishes and can shrinks it's size, and I can also wield his staff easily but I don't think I'll need it though.
And when I told him about this, he simply said 'Well, you're my Master, after all, and I'd expect to no less from the Master whom I'll be serveing for rest of my life~!'
Anyways, after taking out his staff, he sweep up his staff upwards at the air.
At first, a straight path was made in front of us but soon after little by little all the dust was clearing up from the whole city.
When we're walking, I saw ashes of those who caught up in that explosion and got incinerated to the point were there's not even a single bones left.
「Wow~This is quite a sight to see.」< Num >
Num spoke out in amuse voice while looking at place where explosion had taken place.
Well, he is right...
The explosion had make quite the big hole which had created a huge lake around it, and I also wanted to know how much damage was made to the city.
So I check if someone was under my barrier, just to make sure that no one was around us before leaking my magic out.
Then, I took off my mask from my face and expand my barrier larger than the Mech-City itself.
「I see... so 97% of the city was devastated by that one huge explosion, huh...」< Sub >
「I see. Is something bothering you, Master?」< Num >
「Oh, I was just thinking that, it might take them at least a month to fully rebuild the city from scratch by using theirs Technologies. So I was thinking to head to Steam-Town until then to buy stuff for me.」< Sub >
The Steam-Town isn't much develop compare to the Mech-City but it was popular for its hot springs and I guess, it was better than to have nothing, right?
And when I told, Num, about what was going on my mind, he was little bit perplex. Cause I guess he was expecting me to say like 'How should I help them to rebuild the city' or something like that.
But I don't wanna help others too much or they might become too much dependent on us and also I don't wanna stand out too much in front of the whole crowd.
But I'll make sure that my followers will help them a little bit and I'll also have to make sure that they won't butt in too much in thier matters. Because I don't wanna link them or myself to any country or continents.
And the reason was. I want to live a normal life!
「Anyways, I'll head back now. And while, Kitsune, is giving away the potions to others, you also make sure that no one gets hungry, Num.」< Sub >
「As you wish, Master! And about Jyoti?」< Num >
「Ah yes, about her. As you already know, she has left this continent already and told us she will be back within 2-3 days, so let's not disturb her.」< Sub >
「Understood!」
「Well then.」
After waving my hands, I teleported outside our house... I say house but it was more like a mansion, hah...
After showering and eating the dinner, I straight went to my bed with face first.
Then, I started to summaries the whole incident inside my head for few minutes.
「I guess, there's more question right now than the answers...」< Sub >
I think after talking with, Mr.President, might gave me some insights but it was for another day, if he can awake fast enough that is...*Yawn*
Anyways, Good Night!

「Hm... where am I?」< Sub >
When I thought I was sleeping, I saw myself standing on the top of the calm blue water but everything was foggy around here.
Wait!
Am I dreaming again....?
It's been years since I've last had any dreams and every one of them was really unpleasant.
At first I thought, I might be seeing prophetic dreams, so I started to stay on my guard for years and within that times I even created new Techniques and Magic Spells, but in the end nothing happen to me.
So I figure, it might be my past memories but around that same time, dreams also stop coming for some reason.
And after all this time I've dreamed again... I just hope that it won't be the same like others.
『MASTER!!!』
Hm, Did I just heard my followers shouting out to me?
I should check it out from where it's coming from.
I started to walk at the voices direction without thinking too much about it.
Well, in the first place, this was a dream, after all. And everything around me was all foggy to see clearly. So the only thing was for me is to follow the voices direction.
But every step I was making, blue water was also slowly turning into pitch black color.
And when I think I've reached to the place where voices was coming from, fog around me starts to move aside.
Then, a small gap was made in front of me to which I walk towards it and after few seconds, I saw about 20ft huge pitch black ball in front of me.
When I was getting near that huge black ball, I felt weird sensation and when I tried to inspect, I couldn't even tell, if it was hollow or not.
And when I touch the ball--
「!!?」
I suddenly feel my head woozy and heavy, to which I fell on my both knees and used my hands to hold my head still.
But then--!
「You're too pathetic and useless!」
『You're a misfortune!』
『You should've died instead of others!』
「Eww, you're so gross!」
「You're only purpose is to serve me or else I'll leave you forever!」
Tch...! So the scream of peoples dying wasn't enough?! That now I have to hear this hurled of insults too?!!
I-It's hurting my head!
「STOP THIS!!」< Sub >
I was still facing down and shouting out loud to stop it, to which it did...
!!!
When I open my eyes. My eyes were wide open, when I saw Eva sis dead body pop up from under the black water and her whole body was mottled with blue and purple patches.
「...I...I...」
I don't even have courage to face her, even in my dreams... just just, which face should I even show to her, when I couldn't even save her...
I mean, I'm just a failure.....
「Sub-kun.」
But then suddenly I heard Sis voice and when I looked at her, she was also looking right at me.
Then, Sis took her hands out from the water and tired to touch my face slowly, to which my mind was all empty inside and just staring at her doing nothing.
「...--!!」
When her hands were near my cheeks, suddenly from behind someone's hands pull me under the deep black water.
「Ahh--!! Haah....haah....haah....」< Sub >
Then, I suddenly woke up in my bed and my whole body was covered with my own sweat. This might be my first time sweating from my dreams and I was sweating profusely.
And when I looked outside from the window it was already morning, so I got up and went to the balcony to get some fresh air.
While the cold gentle wind of morning was hitting my skin, I took out a cigarette to smo--!!
「....From when did I started to smoke?!」< Sub >
Something doesn't feel right to me.....
!!
W-What is going on? W-Why is my body moving on it's own?!
In a few seconds I was standing at top of the balcony and when I looked down, there was no ground and instead it was an bottomless pit.
Wait! Is this also a dream?!!
Just when I figured it out what was going on, my body suddenly jump from the balcony....
While I was falling down endlessly, again I started to hear those voices.
「Hmph! You're just a failure and who'd even want to marry you?!」
『Did you heard that? Yesterday night, police brought him and they talked with his parents for hour? I think we shouldn't let our kids go near him, it might be bad for our children.』
「You know, yesterday that weirdo purposed me and I said 'yes' to him just because I took pity on him. Of course I don't like him, have you seen his skin color, *Ugh*, don't worry I'll dump him when I got myself a boyfriend.」
「Don't say to him, ok? Yeah, he's just an convenient tool for me and nothing more!」
...This is t-too much! My head hurts.....
For some reason, I was losing my consciousness every time when I heard those words and soon enough I closed my eyes.....
「...I...said...stop....」< Sub >
•
• •
• • •
When my eyes open again, I was in my bed.
I pinched my cheeks really hard just to make sure, I wasn't dreaming this time around.
「So I'm awake, huh.」
And when I looked at outside from the window, I can tell it was already noon but I didn't get much sleep because of that dream, so I'll sleep again.
「I guess I'll go out later.... *Yawn*」< Sub >
While muttering to myself, I once again lay on my bed and went to sleep.
