The Devil's On Me

001. Sword side effect

Rania sat unsettled by the bed where there was Theodoric there still lying unconscious from earlier. After fainting on the street with a nosebleed. If you know his son will end up like this.

Rania will not force Theodoric to accompany him to the market.

The woman repeatedly grunted her runny nose, making several patients who were lying in the same room with Theodoric turn to him.

Rania was already sobbing softly by holding Theodoric's hand tightly, "sorry mom, son... Mom shouldn't have said such embarrassing things just now. Mom should be proud of you in front of those mothers. Even though there's nothing to be proud of about you," Rania said occasionally snorting her flushed nose.

"Mom didn't expect that you turned out to have this kind of disease. The proof is that you fainted and had nosebleeds," Rania said, still making her own poignant.

Some of the patients who were in the same room with Theodoric so looked at Rania somber. Feeling empathy with that mother of one who cries over her sick child.

Theodoric made a small move to make Rania suddenly stand up by looking at her son's face up close.

"Are you okay? You can recognize mom, right?" Rania asked worriedly as she shook Theodoric's arm lightly.

The young man who was not fully aware so wanted to just faint again. Even though he wanted to be sober in a calm state, but his mother always embarrassed him in this public place.

"I'm okay, mother. Can you stop moving my body? After a long time, my brain can be detached from the skull if the mother is this strong." Satirized his son with a sour expression.

Rania suddenly pursed her lips tightly, then pulled her hand away from Theodoric's arm. "It's really okay, right?"

Theodoric was silent for a while, the young man trying to remember exactly why he had arrived in the hospital now. The sword shadow absorbed into his body made the young man squeal in surprise. His mother was by the bed until she was shocked.

One of the patients who was taking a sip of minerals after taking the finished medicine spouted at the nurse who was repairing her infusion tube.

"What's the matter? Why yell like that?" Irritated Rania heard Theodoric still dilating his pupils. Now holding his chest in panic.

"Mother... something came in here, mother. It feels like I can't breathe freely." Racau Theodoric panicked making his mother also panic.

"Mother, call the doctor first. Wait a minute, my son." Rania said it had darted away leaving Theodoric fumbling his chest making the people in the room look at him strangely. Likewise with the poor sister whose beautiful face was sprayed with water by one of the patients.

A few moments later, the doctor came over with a stomping. The old doctor, probably the elder in that hospital.

"Doctor, my chest feels tight... like there's something in here." Theodoric said frantically pointing his chest at the doctor.

"That... for in the body of the father... There is such a thing as a heart, lungs and liver." Obviously the doctor with a slowed down voice.

"It's not, doctor... I also know that I still have a heart, liver and lungs. Only now my chest feels like someone is coming in here... just now I held the sword and kept the sword... siuuuuung into my chest keeps getting lost." The young man's story with his hilarious expression.

Rania just nodded in confirmation. Although he doesn't really understand what Theodoric said.

"So, you mean father--"

"I'm still twenty-five years old, doctor. Not yet a gentleman," Theodoric protested, still rectifying the doctor's talk beside him.

"Okey, so you mean... There is a sword that goes inside your chest. Is that right?" Theodoric nodded his head quickly.

"How to get in?"

"For sure, I didn't knock on the door, doctor." The young man's shackling made his mother immediately beat his head rough. "Obviously the right one," Rania growled staring at him fiercely.

Theodoric thumped faintly then thinned his lips, trying to get serious. "Just now on the way back, I found a sword. Out of curiosity I picked it up, after I held it I did feel that there was something strange about the sword."

Theo's pause for a moment, taking a faint sip. "Slowly the sword disappeared and absorbed into my hand. Then it glowed and went into my chest, doctor. I kept being thrown deep into the air then slamming hard, it hurt... doctor." Racau Theodoric was serious with his expression of fear.

The doctor nodded his head quietly, then turned to Rania. Then, waving a hand called Rania to come closer.

"It seems that the mother's child has hallucination symptoms or is not well, mom. Did the mother's child show this kind of sane deficiency before?" Rania gawked in place then subconsciously shook her head quietly.

"Bentar, so I mean my pediatrician is crazy. So?"

"It seems, mom." The doctor's retorted casually making Rania cluck roughly.

"Get up, we're home. How can a doctor say such a thing against a patient. My son is still sane, although it is a bit embarrassing and a burden on the family... It's not that he isn't sane." Ketus Rania did not accept then pulled roughly the infusion tube on Theodoric's hand making the young man wince for a moment.

Rania was still dragging Theodoric's arm away from the room there. Walked along the corridor with his turbid expression.

After they came to the front of the hospital building. Rania immediately smiled with relief by clapping her hands excitedly.

"How is acting, mother?"

"What?" Theodoric asked innocently not understanding his mother's question.

"Mom talks like that so you can run away and don't pay your hospital expenses. Great, right?" Theodoric gave a wry smile at that and then with a heavy heart chided at his mother who had stepped first.

"But, the matter of the sword you talked about repeatedly in there just now. Really?" Rania asked curiously making the child shake her head softly.

"No, I'm just making things up." Theo said lazily then stepped quickly with a rough sigh.

The young man stopped his footsteps, feeling strange on his body. He felt that his body was lighter than usual. Unlike before, just a 5-minute walk is tired. Now his legs seem to want to run around the world so excited and full of energy.

Theodoric and his mother walked home towards the house. The two were as usual, choosing to walk. Because their home is indeed not too far from the hospital building. It's only a few tens of meters away.

Theodoric thinned his lips, trying to rethink how the strange sword had gotten into his body. And his chest now seemed like something was hanging over there.

"How about that sword is a sword that belongs to a demon? I will become a follower of demons later, right?" He muttered himself then shook his head softly.

"No, it could have been just a hallucination. I must be tired, where could the sword just now come in and be absorbed into my body?" He continued still on his own.

"Try to think realistically," she said and then rubbed her hair back with a deep breath.

A few minutes later he reached the front of the house. Tailed his mother who had entered first. Theodoric went straight into the room without a word making his mother again comment from A-Z.

Theodoric was used to it. He also opened his hoodie, then accidentally exposed his singlet leaving his stomach exposed a little.

He widened his eyes in shock, then moved closer to the mirror watching his reflection. He pulled back onto his singlet and was surprised to see the changes in his muscular and burly body. Especially to the point of having torn bread as people say.

Theodoric took a rough sip, then opened the singlet completely. He again noticed the image of his beautiful body on the mirror making him blink his eyes in disbelief.

"What is this? How can it be?" He said gawking at himself by slowly smiling broadly then stirring himself in excitement.

After that he wiggled his hips left and right. Then twirled his head by making an instrument out of his mouth. The door to his room opened making he who was ducking with both hands raised high immediately jumped in shock to see his mother in the doorway.

"You... it's really crazy, kid." His mother said pretentiously sadly.

"Don't make it a habit to open the door of the room without knocking on mom. Disrespectful," she said snorting faintly then squealing the body making her mother widen her eyes in shock.

"Just a moment, you... you how come... have a good body like this? You... sports?" Theodoric again rolled his eyes at his mother's guess.

"Yes, I exercise every day. Not like you, mom? Which is just nagging every day." His insinuation then closed the door of the room quietly which immediately made the door slip out of angle.

Theodoric reflex held the door with his hands, blinking in shocked eyes. Even though he just closed the door slowly, but it was possible that it slipped out of the angle and almost collapsed. It was actually what happened to her body until strange things happened to her.

Theodoric muttered vaguely with a faint sip of spit, "is it because of the sword just now?" He said a faint ducking made his eyelids discolored and flared up like a fireball. Surely without the young man noticing.
