Chapter 126 126. Step-Dad
Nathan laying in his pool of blood was contemplating his life decisions, Why did he even come here? Will the feeling he felt before be wrong?
He looked at Helen from the ground and saw that he was well dressed in a black suit and pants. Her face too had a healthy blush. There is no way this woman could be sick.
Still, to be on the safe side he decided to use a special technique his master taught him. His eyes glowed as he scanned her body.
But then he remembers, isn't this the reason why he was laying on the ground? When he came here Helen was not that aggressive but out of curiosity and to search for the chance, He used this technique on her.
This will help her to find any hidden illness of Helen but before he could search her body, Enomorouse's pressure fell on him pinning him on the ground, Making his fractured bone stick out of his body under pressure.
Well, he was right, Just as by instinct he used his technique on her, Pressure on him doubled crushing his bones and making him bleed even more.
He was now thankful that his master had taught him the breathing technique of quick healing. If not, He was not sure he could survive today.
But this technique is also quite taxing. This directly draws the power of the future potential of the user, So in exchange for life, you have to sacrifice the future.
As he used that technique, An aurora rose from his body covering him whole, quickly healing the old wounds and the new ones that are being created right now.
Still, under the pressure, New wounds were appearing making him use this technique constantly.
'Alex Winchester, You will have to pay for this with interest.'
Nathan gritted his teeth as he bore the pressure Helen put on him, Though not sure of his own survival he did not forget to curse Alex.
In his mind, everything happened because of Alex. He is the reason why he was not beaten like a bitch. If at that time he did not put his big nose in his matter, Everything would be fine.
He had gained support from that powerful person, After that, he should have had smooth sailing, But since he met Alex everything turned worse.
He even treated his own house like unwanted, Before when he liked any woman they came running towards in his arms and now? They are beating on sight.
It's all Alex's fault, He had the gut feeling everything that happened to him was directed by Alex, He didn't know why but this is a very strong feeling.
Also, there is another feeling he did not want to admit, which is fear. He had fear in his heart since the 2nd meeting with Alex.
Seeing Alex, He felt like he was comforted by his natural enemy. He did have the urge to run away every time he saw him, And now seeing his strength, He gets why even after his mother taught Alex a lesson was able to walk.
His mother might have fooled him by his weak appearance and she went easy on him, So he decided to go back home and ask his mother to pay one more visit to Karna.
But this time he wanted her not to go easy on him. Even if she had to punish him all night, He wanted her mother to do it.
'This??'
Helen wanted to continue beating Natahn till he would stop breathing but she was stunned seeing the technique he used.
"You guys have a gut, Even dare to peek into my body. You are very lucky that you are some of Isabella, My old friend's students. If not...well you know what would have happened, right?"
Helen lowered her pressure seeing that Nathan was in a desperate situation using the forbidden technique.
She knows that technique very well. It was her old friend who found it in ruins. As it's forbidden for the reason why Natahn didn't want to use it, It uses the future potential of the user.
But that is a half-truth. Even if it was using future potential it was not enough to label it as forbidden as in life and death. It didn't matter if you were drawing power from potential.
The reason why it's forbidden is that it not only draws potential from the future but also decreases one life and it also damages one's origin core, The thing that holds the life and potential of every awakened being.
So when she saw Nathan using that technique continuously to stay alive, She stopped fearing he might really die.
Before he was the son of Isabella was not a big deal, Though she did not want to spoil the relationship between families but she also did not care much about it.
But now an additional person, Her old friend being this man's teacher, She had given up taking out her anger on him, Anyway now she has calmed down, At least now she is not as angry as before.
'It's quite an effective way to reduce anger, I should find a few volunteers for this noble task.'
Helen is learning a new thing and that is beating people will lower her anger a lot and that too very quickly.
So as a mother of cold Alia, The first thought was to find some before beating rather than to buy a punching bag.
Which not only be cost-effective but also a lot more durable, Though not able to take shots from S-Rank like her but a custom-made strengthened tungsten punching bag for awakened will be a lot more durable.
But well, She is the mother of Alia, To whom even Alia is fearful, There is a reason for it.
"You two, Throw this trash away," said Isabella to keep her dogs on leashes. If not, I don't mind doing it for her."
Helen then looked at "bodyguards"/standing in the corner thoroughly enjoying her miserable condition of Nathan.
"Okay, Miss. We will keep our dog in check but if he crosses his line in future, Feel free to beat him anytime you want, We will not say a thing.
Our Young man thought the man was very feminine. His skin is also quite thick like his head, So he is going to need a few more beatings to get this thing in his head, So we will meet.
I have to apologise for the inconvenience in advance, Okay, We will take our leave miss."
Number one will not let go of any single moment that is harmful to Natahn, Though he still needs sharpening at this time taunting was way efficient but well he can still learn.
"??????"
Helen had question marks hovering above her head, She did not understand what just happened.
She deals with lots of people in her life, Most if not all of them either act fearful or threaten her, But she never hears this reply and that too from this person's bodyguards.
"Ba....ster...ds"
Nathan really wanted to beat the shit out of these two now, Why were they looking for trouble for him, What he ever did to them? Why were they targeted like a mortal enemy?
He felt like crying blood tears when he thought that he was the one who insisted on keeping them as his bodyguards. Did the dog have eaten his brain when he made that decision?
Nathan was in regret, While two of them came and carried him out as they brought him here.
"How can she teach disciple this weak?"
When Nathan and his bodyguards were gone, Helen murmured to herself, She knows the teacher of Nathan, That's why she also knows that woman never taught a random person, All her students are exceptional geniuses.
And more importantly, All of them are girls.
Her friend has an old minded. She thinks women are superior to men when it comes to ancient knowledge. That's why she only taught girls until now.
So she was confused about how a person with this kinda mindset could teach someone like Nathan, Who is not only weak but also a man.
"Forget it, That woman might have gone senile because of age."
Well in search of an answer, She came up with the most logical one and dropped the topic as there are more important things.
'He seems to have some problem with his use of power.'
Helen looked towards the entrance, Even though the door of it was closed, She was able to see everything from another side.
Her eyes were focused on Alex, Who now shivered to see Nathan carried out of her VIP ward.
She looked at him before. At first, she wanted to beat him to death when she had just woken up from her deep sleep.
But now that she saw him, Her heart softened, So she decided to make him hers anyway her daughter was lacking a father, So he would like a gift for them.
She fully decided now to make him her husband by any means necessary, After all, that man kinda takes advantage of her.
It's just a while looking at him. She saw an anomaly which worried her a lot, So she dropped the idea for a while.
....
Outside Alex shivered as he heard a system notification.
