In that moment, the healing master let out a violent cough. Blood staining his handkerchief as he staggered away from David. He didn’t waste a single second and popped a particularly large pill in to his mouth. Hitting a few veins in his body, he sat and started controlling his body to accumulate his lost energy and blood.

Six hours passed and finally, blood started returning in his body  and a shallow blush could be seen on his face. The blood medicine was effective.

Master Xion opened his eyes, thoroughly exhausted and drained. His eyes contained a hint of fear as he stared at David like some sort of monster. “I’m not exactly sure what’s wrong with him, but I’m certain he’s in need of massive amount of force and energy. Like how some beast go into hibernation in famine to save energy, this young man had done the same.” Carrying his backpack, the Master was in a hurry to leave. He couldn’t stay here another second.

“Master Xion! You are the best healing master most renowned in this world, surely there’s something you can do to save my precious disciple!” The dojo master growled threateningly. His energy fluctuating in a dangerous manner as his muscles spasm from their shriveled phase.

Noticing this, Master Xion gazed at him with the corner of his eyes, totally indifferent as he spoke. “It’s no use threatening me. The answer is actually simple. Feed him blood, lots and lots of blood.”

This answer startled the members of the dojo, including the dojo master.

Master Xion turned towards the dojo master with an heavy expression. “Common, don’t tell me you haven’t thought about that matter?”

The dojo master contemplated for half a minute before saying in conviction. “We touched him, including others from the dojo, he didn’t react to absorb any of our blood so you might be wrong about this,  he’s different from the others in the ancient text.”

The healing master nodded in agreement. “You might be right that he’s different from the other Blood demons from thousands of years ago, but if not for my secret technique, I would have been drained in both blood and energy and died here without anyone knowing why. Therefore, my conclusion is that he is a blood demon without a doubt. To awaken him, you would require the blood of several high  level beast, possibly humans too.”

The faces of the several people present changed hearing his last words. “You don’t mean…”

The healing Master glanced at Lara with a knowing look  and her face turned pale in the process. He actually meant it when he said preferably human blood.

The dojo master’s face turned solemn as he nodded. “Understood. Elder Luke will see you as you leave.”

The healing Master shook his head and spoke. “There’s no need for that, I only came here in respect for the new lord of the realm, no matter how flawed he is.”

The dojo master as well as the three elders present bowed their heads watching Master Xion leave. It wasn’t until he vanished from view in the horizons  did the four raise their head.

“From Master Xion’s words, it seems David might actually be a Blood demon, growing stronger by killing his fellow humans!” On eof the elder grumbled, his face one of disgust and unacceptance.

“Brother Noen, you are wrong there. For a blood demon, we the seven elders are the perfect fit to increase his strength. Which means he could have absorb our blood and the dojo masters blood to increase his strength, he didn’t. Although he basically used Blood Force during the battle, with the sun celestial, he didn’t look like he was out of tone with the blood force. Therefore, while there might be possibilities he might be a blood demon, David isn’t a berserk blood demon nor a blood thirsty demon.”𝒩𝓞𝑣𝓵xt.𝗇𝓔t

Three months passed with David still unconscious. The dojo master was particularly active during this period with several famous individuals going missing.

The elders along with the eldest senior sisters and the eldest brothers were busy rebuilding the dojo and maintaining order within the dojo. Within the span of three months, various powerful individuals within this world had grouped up with the dojo when they saw the power David could achieve. The entire world had witnessed David battling with the Sun Celestial and achieved victory, sending the sun celestial fleeing for his life within a few hours.

This feat had attracted a lot of individuals and a lot of attention from various factions and various powerful families.

“Senior sister, someone from the Wills family wishes to have a word with it the young patriarch.” A young man barged into the room, almost kneeling to the ground once he saw the eldest senior sister of the dojo-Lara.

“Don’t you know what to do? Chase them out of the city and make sure they never have the chance to step foot within any city in a thousand kilometer radius!”

“I’m afraid that is impossible senior sister.” The young man replied.

This time, the eldest sister removed her gaze from the sleeping David and turned towards the young man with pure indifference. “And why is that?”

“The witness s-said she was the real sister of the young patriarch when he arrived in this world.”

As the word escaped his lips, the eldest sister’s voice  blasted through his ears like a megaphone.

“Kill that bitch or send her to the Pit of Suffering!”

“I-it’s not that simple senior sister, she has actual evidence!” The young man quickly spoke before the short tempered senior sister loses her cool. If she wasn’t before the young patriarch, she would have long since sent him flying with one slap for disturbing her, that’s how short tempered she is.

This time though, the dojo eldest sister showed signs of curiosity when she asked “What evidence did the witness bring?”

“Uhm, it was a picture and a few videos of the young patriarch laughing and joking with this young-“

“Then you should be well aware that the pictures and videos are fake. David never even laughed in my presence, what makes you think he would laugh in the presence of some old fag?” The young man hadn’t even finished his sentence  when he was interrupted by the eldest senior sister.

Over the past few months, the dojo increased in strength and reputation, earning respect from the various dojos and secret organizations both near and far through out the entire world. Occasionally, some individuals would arrive, claiming to be David’s aquintances but after deep and thorough investigation, the truth was then found out, the evidence were all fake no matter how real they proved to be.

So of course after hearing the words from this Yong servants mouth, Lara immediately dismissed it and claimed it as also fake.

“Eldest sister, we were trained to be able to differentiate between real and fake, of course the pictures went through various amount of testing to ascertain its originality. Check this out.” The young Man projected an holographic image which revealed David along with a vibrant young lady seemingly having fun like brothers and sisters do. At first, Lara was sceptical as David had never revealed that sort of playful side of himself while at the dojo, it seemed particularly strange, even to the young servant of who had produced the evidence to the eldest young lady.

After a few moments of silence and contemplation, the eldest older sister spoke.

“Fine, bring her in. David will decide for himself if he knows her and if he doesn’t, she can only blame herself for the repercussions Her expression indifferent when she  gave the go ahead.

“Eldest sister., are you sure this is a great idea? She will die if she was lying the moment she gets to close to the young dojo master.” The young man hesitated.

“David needs large amount of blood essence anyways. Who are we to say no if some naive individual wanted to contribute to his awakening . Excort her in.”

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!!!”
