“It's actually funny when you think about it. So, I found out that my girlfriend who contributed immensely to my mom's death by taking and spending my savings meant for her treatment had moved her attention to a wealthy guy. That day at school I was on my way home after I just finished writing my quiz, and saw a young, arrogant douchebag proposing to her with roses, chocolates, accompanying money bouquet and other luxury goods. Before the whole school, she denied being in a relationship with me. Perhaps, she was afraid that admitting she was dating a loser like my former self would rub off negatively on her, especially now that she had finally found a very wealthy patron. Everyone around began to taunt me, and her new boyfriend humiliated me. Out of anger, I attacked the man, irrespective of the huge gap in our status. This was happening a day after I lost my mom, so my emotions were very unstable then, making me act irrationally. Why will I fight another man for an idiotic gold digg

“I can't breathe well.” Ryan muttered, gasping. Anthony quickly took his hand to check his pulse, while simultaneously sending streams of energy to probe his body. “My blood is reacting to his? Was it too strong or is it because it's of different blood groups? No, I used it to formulate the antidote and the quantity was not much, what the fuck will be causing this kind of problem?” Anthony thought, his brows pinched together as he tried to find a solution. The boy groaned again, and his body began to slightly change. “Something is blocking my chest.” He groaned in pain, making Anthony's attention to shift to his chest area. “Mmm? There are clumps of substances forming in different parts of his body. What could they be?” He quickly began to scan one of the lumps with his energy and a low shout escaped his mouth at what he saw. “The creatures are too much in your body, the virus or whatever, is squeezing out of your organs because of the drug's interaction. Endure it, okay?” An

There was silence for a while before the system spoke, apparently waiting to receive orders from an unknown person.“Of course, it can be used to swallow those demonic aliens, evil cultivators and even evil gods. However, you can't use it yet, you do not have the ability; you're still too weak. The energy requirements are enormous for you. It might end up swallowing you instead. The only reason you will be able to use it for treatment is because the immortal emperor already blessed and imbibed it with his energy to help control it and also sanctify whatever that enters the casket. So as long as it remains in the casket, it will do its work without needing energy from you. But if you bring it out for your personal use, you're on your own.” The system explained, just as the stone embedded itself into the casket’s cover.****“What's wrong with him? He's zoning out, as if he's no longer here.” Ryan said, trying to tap Anthony. Sean quickly caught his hands, stopping him.“He's trying to

Anthony took the boy's wrist again to check his vitals after listening to Sean's comments.“He's fine, just temporarily passed out due to the pain. Also I rashly withdrew the energy protecting his brain, maybe that's why he's asleep.” “You removed the energy protecting his brain? What if you missed one or two of the creatures and they bite their way there?” Sean asked with a scowl on his face.Anthony grabbed the boy's wrist and began to send streams of energy into his body to check him once more.“There's nothing in there, except for a few drops of the poisonous liquid deposited as a result of their presence in his body. In addition, lots of his internal organs are messed up thanks to those things, he's trying to rebuild, and expel poison. Apart from that, he's fine.” Anthony said and stood up to brew the final herb.He tapped the boy's face and he tiredly opened his eyes, looking so exhausted like one who went to hell and back. “So sorry dear, you need to sit up and have this to h

“Why are you shouting? Isn't it obvious? Since you're very busy with your sweetheart, I decided to help out till you return.” Sean said, not realizing how anxious Anthony was for the girl's life. “Sean-ah. How can you do this without consulting me? Do you even know the processes involved?” Anthony said calmly, not wanting to alarm the victim. “Of course, I know. I checked her body but her vitals were a bit unstable and some parts of her body looked strange. So, I proceeded to give her a shot of the antidote intravenously, but the creatures were not much in her body, so I managed to force them out through her throat. Only a few came out through her legs because of the prolonged periods of time she stood in that pit.” Sean explained, still discharging his duties unhurriedly. Anthony's eyes moved to her legs, and sure enough, there were deep holes on them. However, he didn't notice them at first due to his anxiety. He sighed in relief and looked at the girl who seemed unconscious i
