Chapter 131 - If only (1/2)
Even though Nightin's feet was stamped on the brown haired youth's chest, the youth merely laughed at all this as blood leaked from his mouth ”Haha, even if you were to kill me right now, I would still keep silent about this whole matter!”
Nightin closed his eyes and stamped down harder before questioning again ”So, are you willing to speak now? You should know that if treatment is delayed any further, your arm will end up being crippled.”
The brown haired youth merely sighed as he said weakly ”I Javier at the age of twelve stepped into the Martial Spirit realm and was crowned as the number one genius in my family. Yet fate pulled a cruel roulette on me as my family head, who is my uncle sent me to the slave traders without sparing a thought for my feelings.”
”He did so just to ensure that the entire family would support his son with all the cultivation resources while lying to them, me being sent to a Demi-Rank sect was merely his conspiracy and yet my foolish family members fell for it, this included my dearest parents and brother.”
”For six years I was a test subject, I had to endure thousands of poisons testings and beatings, I was given the minimal amount of water and food needed to sustain my body needs, I was nothing more but a tool for them to hold life and death slaughter arenas for the psychopathic rich!”
”There would always be more dead bodies piles up together whenever I open my eyes, many of them had lost hope in life and plunged into the darkness or the grim reaper, yet I actually held on to that last ray of light and chain, awaiting for someone to pull me back up.”
”I was suffocating in the water and couldn't find a way out, that was until the day my young master broke into the slaughter arena and murdered all those slave traders, since it was an illegal gathering to begin with, everyone there was killed mercilessly with toxic acid beyond the average endurance of a human.”
”From that day onwards, I made a vow to protect my young master with my life and even cultivated till I faint daily, yet my meridians were already damaged and even though the young master helped me to recover mostly, I was merely a star specked with unremovable dust and left in the corner!”
Hearing Javier releasing all his pent up rage at once made Nightin soften as he asked ”If that so, then why do you still want to serve that young master of yours that much?”
”Because he treats me as his only brother and friend, others were shunning from him because of the way he handle cases, his character was direct and he would always pinpoint out even the slightest mistakes, this included the placing of utensils even during mealtimes. It may be irritating, but I view him the same way as he does towards me.” Javier explained as he began to smile at a point of time.
”Then have you ever thought of it this way, what if your young master treats you as a friend instead of a mere servant? Shouldn't you actually take the initiative to make him realise that he isn't alone? That someone is still concerned about his wellbeing?”
Nightin questioned and even pressured on ”You really think that the reason for your stagnant cultivation is because your young master isn't giving you any cultivation resources? It's because he knows that it wouldn't suffice and he probably has other plans for you in mind. The thing restricting you isn't your talent or damaged meridians, but your heart for cultivation.”
”Open your heart up and embrace the dark past, grow strong enough to fight alongside the young master who you treat as your brother and rid the world of evil!”
Hearing Nightin's rally cry, Javier felt the gate which had been sealed shut loosening up and he quickly delved into his consciousness and began to make a breakthrough.
Ahead of him were three doors, the first was red which reminded him of the bloodshed and lives which he has taken to survive up till now, but he merely closed his eyes as his fist smashed through the gate without any hesitation.
With the first gate being broken, he gradually walked up to the second gate as Nightin protected him from outside, it would prove fatal if he was interrupted at this crucial point of time.
The second gate, it was purple in colour and reminded him of all the memories that he's too terrified of, the poisons which he had experienced till now may have given him the immunity to most poisons, but the pain he had to endure wasn't worth it at all.
Even so, I won't allow something like this to stop my path anymore! Javier cried out to himself as he dashed and smashed through the gate without any hesitation and landed before the third gate.
