"We greet the Grandmaster." All 5 staff replied, seeing Dorian enter the grand bedroom chamber.
They were the remaining 5 who Dorian hadn't seen.
Looking at the youngster, they couldn't help assessing him.
What was so special about this young man?
Why did Master Jung Hou value him so much?
And what was up with calling him 'Grandmaster?'
Everyone had their own thoughts but shrugged, going about their duties.
So were adjusting the expensive dical equipnt, while others monitored and recorded the vitals of the coma patients.
Of course, so were still cleaning the patients, removing any sweat, germs or sticky fluids on them.
This was normal, as the fluids released were at a moderate and okay quantity.
If they had been sweating heavily, then it might be because of fever from infection, chemicals or signs of waking up. Worst, it could be a sign of dying too.
In short, it could go either way.
And their jobs were to check very frequently, feeding the patients at required tis, giving treatnt and ensuring that their breathing was steady
.
Zoom!
Dorian opened his 3rd eye, scanning the room and his parents' bodies.
['Host... Are you afraid that sothing more powerful might latch onto them and infiltrate the estate']
'No.'
['Then why are you checking?']
'You wouldn't understand.'
[('-_-')]
Dorian couldn't care less about the system's feelings.
After all, what he said was true.
It would never understand his reasons.
Dorian knew that the chances of so evil entity strolling in were very slim.
For one, he had protection all across the estate that would burn and kill any that tried to enter.
However, this only worked for being weaker than himself.
That said, this wasn't the primary reason he was confident.
No... It would have to be because of the high-ranking creature that infected his parents.
Though the creature hadn't marked them, its evil qi was so powerful that it made other veil entities that his entire estate should be marked.
He felt it the mont he returned from dealing with Chiyou's matter.
It was probably because of this qi that those around his parents' ward in the hospital always felt a gloomy and chill air whenever they got closer.
At present, Dorian was too weak to control or shield this aura.
However, thanks to him using the main house as portal sites to the hidden room, the system had automatically suppressed this qi.
As they say, light and darkness can't live under one roof.
Thanks to that, he could contain matters, lest the gloomy air affected the yin and yang in his estate.
But though it was no threat to mortals, evil entities could still sense the hidden potential of being restrained.
.
Like a beast locked in a cage, the cage itself didn't hide the ferocity of whatever was inside.
It only protected humans but was still a grueso thing to behold.
Thus, no one creature would dare to step into the estate. That's why the system might think Dorian was redundant for checking.
But to Dorian who was a son of his mortal parents, he was overwheld with the thought to verify and check things for himself.
It was just human nature... Sothing the system couldn't understand.
Looking at his parents, Dorian saw the mysterious purplish-black energy struggling to seep out of its cage.
And once again, he couldn't go wondering which powerful entity had left the underworld all this ti.
The power was so strong that he felt it should belong to one of the 7 princes.
Should it be Lucifer? Or could it be Asmodeus?
No... The war wasn't coming for the ti being. So why would any of the big 7 be roaming about?
Were they hastening things up? Or was he wrong about his guesses?
Wait! Could it be the generals under them? Lilith, and the rest?
Dorian had no idea of the current war going on in the underworld. Thus, he felt it might be impossible to see the big 7 now.
Hopefully, he was right because with his puny strength, they would kill him with a flick of a finger.
.
Dammit!
He didn't know how he would do it, but he needed to reach an Immortal cultivation realm if he wanted to take them on!
The big day will soon arrive. So how can he not worry?
Worry...
Hah... He never thought he would have such a feeling well up within him.
He was worried not for himself or the rest of humanity.
Tsk.
For all he cared, they could perish.
No... What he worried about were his parents, his n... And strangely, Ghu Sota and the few others he t.
Strange... Strange... What sort of feeling was this?
He didn't like it at all.
Things were getting out of hand!
'System, I hope your next rewards will be more eye-fetching than these.'
['Host! Don't worry. My master has long assured that everything will co to you at tge right ti.']
'Oh? Your master?' Suddenly, Dorian's entire body turned cold. 'Are you monitoring ?'
Busted! Busted!
['No! No! No! No! No!... Host, calm down. Hear out! I'm not. This system isn't here to monitor you!'] The system said, with a guilty conscience. ['Host, I just receive commands on what your next mission is and relay them to you. Host, I'm really sincere. If soone doesn't send the mission, do you think I will know what to do?']
Dorian withdrew his murderous aura. 'I believe you.'
['Ah-.. Thank you, host!']
'Hmmm... You're too stupid to co up with such missions. So it makes sense.
['... Yes, host... I'm just too stupid.']
(:YπY:)
.
The system wanted to commit suicide.
It missed its master so much.
Just look at how it was bullied down here?
At the sa ti, it said a silent prayer, feeling fortunate to have escaped from death's door.
Of course, even if Dorian found out about its previous reports to its master, the system would never admit it.
Hmph!
Wasn't that asking for death?
Typically, it would never feel threatened by a human. It was a heavenly being, and a human could never do anything to it.
However, when it ca to Dorian, it had a hunch that if Dorian wanted to deal with it, he could.
And this was what scared it the most.
Help! Its host wasn't normal!
