Things were not really so bad. The enlargement of his body had resulted in an increase in his Strength as well. This had added one point to his Strength and his Strength had increased to 40 points. He did not seem to be happy about it though.
His clothes obviously had become a size smaller and his pants were very tight and short. He could also feel that his new shoes were a little bit tighter. Subconsciously he was trying to unbutton his clothes, but he could not, frustrating him. His power gathered and stirred up the atmosphere, causing a sudden fierce wind which blew everything in his bedroom, making a huge mess. He then ripped his clothes apart including the coat made from the demonic horse's mane and his plasma inner wear in anger as well.
Luo Yuan did the same thing to his pants, tearing them apart before laying in bed to look at the ceiling helplessly, feeling annoyed.
His two-meter height was still within the range of a normal human being's height. His life would not be affected at the moment but how would he look like in the future?
Perhaps the next increase in his four-dimensional senses would cause him to go beyond human limits. From his experience, this was going to happen very soon, probably within one month or a maximum of six months. He had no idea where he would go if this happened, wondering if he had to end up alone and his women would all leave him alone.
That night, Luo Yuan was tossing and turning around due to insomnia.
...…
The next morning, the mutated woman who sneaked into his room quietly was the first one to realize the change in Luo Yuan's appearance.
She was shocked looking at Luo Yuan who was sitting on the bed as she felt that she was not familiar with him at all. She retreated a few steps backward and nearly fell down as she stepped on a broken vase.
Luo Yuan stared at her. He then shifted his gaze. Without any facial expressions, he walked toward his wardrobe and chose the biggest clothes he had. He noticed that it was still slightly smaller as everything in his wardrobe was prepared according to his initial body size. There were not any clothes that suited his size, so he had to wear this first.
He headed back to his bedroom and activated his Will. The rubbish and broken pieces floated into air, spiraled up, and formed a ball.
Luo Yuan stripped the bed and the sheets joined the ball. He then covered the bed with new sheets that he took from his wardrobe and left his bedroom along with the rubbish. The women were all awake and preparing food.
Wang Shishi who came out from the kitchen was shocked and speechless when she saw Luo Yuan.
”Why are you stunned? Can't you recognize me?” Luo Yuan smiled despite being worried.
”You… You… You… How did you grow so tall in one night?” Wang Shishi stammered.
Wang Shishi's voice immediately attracted the others to come out. All of them covered their mouth in shock of what they saw.
”Luo Yuan, what happened?” Huang Jiahui asked in shock.
”I'm not really sure what's happening as well. Just that yesterday I've achieved a breakthrough in my abilities and now I look like this.” Luo Yuan said helplessly but he forced a smile.
He had no idea how to tell them about the true fact. It was impossible for him to tell them that this was just the beginning and he was going to become a giant very soon and they would look as small as an ant to him.
Everyone felt a sense of relief but was somehow worried about him. They had been living together with each other for so long. Regardless of how well Luo Yuan could hide his feelings, they could still vaguely feel it.
None of them continued asking. They looked stunned in the first place but now they looked like they had gotten used to it. The only difference was Luo Yuan kept quiet most of the time, causing the atmosphere to be silent and dull.
Luo Yuan felt that something was wrong and quickly got back his senses. He smiled and asked, ”What's wrong? Don't stop talking. It's just that I had some thoughts on my mind. Doctor Ye, don't behave like a guest, treat this as your house.”
Ye Qiuyu immediately put down the steamed bun on her hand as she was scared. She said softly while trying to swallow the food in her mouth, ”Yes… Yes, I will.”
”He looked scary but he is just the same as an ordinary man. Don't be afraid of him.” Wang Xiaguang told her as she stared at Luo Yuan.
Luo Yuan shook his head and smiled. The heavy atmosphere earlier was replaced by a harmonious one now.
He was aware that his abnormal emotions had influenced the women. He then decided to let it go as eventually, if things were meant to happen, it would happen. At least for now, he should appreciate his loved ones.
Luo Yuan then chatted with them and the women's anxieties had started to fade away.
After finishing his breakfast, he said, ”Enjoy your meal. I'm going out.”
He took his Zhanmadao and when he was about to leave, he said, ”Please buy me some plus-size clothes. My body had grown bigger and I can't fit into the old clothes.”
...…
As soon as Luo Yuan left the Hope City, he started to fly into the sky.
Without the synthetic clothes made by the demonic horse's mane, the air resistance now slowed down his speed. Fortunately, he used the leftover horse's mane to synthesize a belt and he wore it around his waist.
Despite his speed being reduced to half, he still managed to travel at a speed of one kilometer per second. Such a speed was more than enough to travel short distances. He would certainly use the space-time bubble or teleport if he were going on a long journey. With his abilities, losing all of his equipment would not have any significant effects on him.
The defense provided by his clothes was no longer important to Luo Yuan as his bodily defenses system could defend against most of the level eight creatures.
Luo Yuan flew very fast and before it was even 10 minutes, he had landed in the old nest of the Blue Dragon. He stared at the Blue Dragon that tried to escape as soon as he saw him before shifting his gaze toward the wisdom tree.
