Chapter 6 : Accident?

Timothee didn't know exactly what time he felt his body hurt so much that he unconsciously made him scream in pain.

His body felt as if he had been hit with a big hammer, his breath began again to catch on, he could feel his whole body covered in cold sweat.

But, for some reason Timothee felt like he was semi-conscious, his eyes were tightly closed and he held back the pain that wracked his body by closing his eyes.

Not long after, Timothee seemed to hear someone enter his room, but Timothee strangely sensed that the person was just staring at him from the darkness of his room with a smirk plastered on it’s lips.

Then, Timothee's vision darkened and he fell unconscious.

.  .  .

The next morning Timothee woke up with feeling well.  However, he was very surprised when his room became very crowded, all of the assistants in his house gathered in his room.

Timothee rubbed his eyes, he thought he saw wrong, but in fact everyone was gathered in his room.

It seems that because they sensed Timothee's movement, Giselle and Violette who were near him immediately woke up and were so excited when they saw Timothee was awake.

“Young Master, do your body hurt again?”  Violette asked, instantly examining Timothee's body.

“I will prepare food for you, Young Master!”  Giselle run out of Timothee's room to prepare some food, when she see Timothee was awake. 

Slowly the three other assistants of Timothee also woke up when they heard the noise caused by Violette and Giselle.

“I'm fine, don't worry."  Timothee tried to get up from his sleep but was restrained by Armand and Timothee decided to just lean his body.

“Are you sure, Young Master?”  asked Joseph – Timothee's assistant who was in charge of keeping security around the house along with his twin Jophiel – while walking closer to Timothee.

Timothee who saw the presence of Joseph and Jophiel in his room though, it seems that last night he was not a hallucination, he was really in pain last night.

“Why are you all here?”  asked Timothee distracting the question that had come to him.

“Of course because we are worried about your condition. This afternoon the healer will come to check on you, Young Master,” said Jophiel while explaining that he had called the healer to come.

“I'm fine, there's no need to call a healer here," replied Timothee, not wanting a healer to come to his place.

“Then let Violette make some medicinal herbs for you," replied Joseph, interceding with his brother and Timothee's argument.

Actually, Timothee didn't want to taste the bitterness of the medicinal herbs that Violette had made, but rather than having him examined by a healer, it was better for him to drink the bitter herbs.

“Okay, I'll listen to you," replied Timothee.

“I will bring you some medicinal herbs as soon as possible, Young Master.  But, before that, eat the food that Giselle is preparing for you,” said Violette, who had been silent all this time.

Timothee just nodded and Violette left Timothee's room to prepare some medicinal herbs for him.

After confirming that Violette was out of his room, Timothee directly asked his three male assistants about what had happened last night.

“Tell me, what exactly happened last night?"  asked Timothee in a serious tone.

“You don't remember, Young Master?"  Armand furrowed his brows when he heard Timothee's question.

“I don't know, I thought last night was just hallucinating and I didn't feel your presence last night," said Timothee explaining what he felt last night.

Joseph and Jophiel glanced at each other as they listened to Timothee's explanation, “You have no idea.  Last night you are in rage," said Jophiel curtly.

“That's why we are both here to stop you," continued Joseph, finishing his brother's words.

“Rampage?  I remember last night I just felt my body was in pain."  Timothee began to think about last night's events.

“What Joseph and Jophiel said is true, Young Master.  Last night you screamed in pain and instantly went raging when you saw us,” explained Armand confirming Joseph and Jophiel's words.

After hearing that Armand also said the same thing, Timothee became deep in thought as to what had really happened to him.  Suddenly it appeared to him about the system that was in him.

“System, I want to ask you something," said Timothee, communicating with System 666 through his mind.

[Go ahead, Host]

"What happened last night?"  asked Timothee with no hesitation to System.

[The curse within your body activates due to your exhaustion]

“Then why I don't remember?"  Timothee, who was still curious, asked again.

[Because the System makes you not to feel it]

Timothee became suspicious to System after hearing System's answer, he should have been wary of System's presence by his side.

After that, Timothee no longer asked the System, the important thing is that he now knows a little that last night's incident was related to his curse.

“Young Master, are you all right?  Don't think too much about it, what happened last night no one knows other than us who are here."  Armand tried to calm Timothee when he saw that his Young Master was lost in thought.

“Thanks to all of you, sorry to bother you, especially you Joseph and Jophiel, forgive me if I hurt you.”  Timothee apologized to all of his assistants, he was really bad to all of them.

“No problem, Young Master.  Then rest your body, we will return to guard,” said Joseph to Timothee before leaving Timothee's room to return to work with his younger brother, Jophiel.

Armand soon went to join them and let Timothee rest alone in his room.

At that moment, Timothee again heard the System 666 notification which he had not heard for a long time.

Ding!

[Daily Quest :

- Meditate for 30 minutes (0/30) (Uncomplete)

- Do plank for 15 minutes (0/15) (Uncomplete) ]

Timothee was very surprised when he saw that his daily quest was not as full as yesterday's daily quest, today he only had to do meditation and plank.

“System, are you feeling good today?  Your quest is so generous!”  Timothee said happily to the unusual this bastard System.

[System only gives a little pity to the dying Host]

Hearing System's insult made Timothee spit up his blood.  The basis of this bastard system has not changed, every day can only mock Timothee.

“Damn you, System!”  Timothee cursed back at the selfless System.

Surprisingly, Timothee didn't hear the notification that the system's favor points had decreased after cursing the System earlier.

Just as Timothee was about to ask System, he heard a knock on his bedroom door, and soon Giselle appeared carrying a tray of porridge as well as several small bowls of other side dishes.

“Young Master, your breakfast is ready,” said Giselle with her usual cheerful smile.

“Thank you, Giselle.  Just leave it here, I'll eat it,” Timothee replied, pointing to the small table next to his bed.

Giselle put the tray she was carrying in the small table that Timothee pointed and soon leave his Young Master room.

Timothee changed his body positions slightly to take his food tray and started eating his breakfast, he didn't think he was really hungry.

 Timothee set aside some of his dessert for him to eat later, he remembered that after this he would drink the bitter medicinal potion that Violette made.

And Timothee set aside his dessert to neutralize the bitter taste.

Ding!

Even though Timothee had tried to get used to hearing the voice, he was still surprised when he heard the System notification that suddenly came to him.

[Quest 3: Ask Violette to teach you how to make Potions]

“Some strange quest again.”  Timothee wanted to slam his head against the wall when he got this weird quest of his bastard system.
