The Urban Dao Child. Chapter 184
Advertisement
Yang Dao glanced at the banner and then pedaled forward. His mind was filled with a lot of questions. He had read about this old professor invited by the university for a guest lecture. The reason was that the old man was a prominent figure in Nuclear physics.
The boy had a goal in his mind and that was to develop an Atomic Fusion reactor and this old man could help him a lot but the thing was; he had a lot many things to prepare and achieve before he can even think about an atomic fusion reactor.
With shaking off his thoughts, the boy came to the cycling club. He found a roller outside the clubhouse. Seems like someone forgot to place it in. This was obvious, as the door still had a padlock on it. He placed his bag down, and after setting up the bile on the roller, he warmed up.
His mind was focused on the constant muscle movement in his body. It has been a few weeks since he had been on a bike, so the body needed a few tweaks to get in perfect condition. Thanks to the source particle energy, he could adjust himself within just a few minutes.
He heard another bike approach and saw Ayaka Gust. He stopped the roller and got down from the bike. He bowed and said, "Good morning coach, and I apologize for my absence."
Ayaka said, "It is okay. I knew that you had some urgent work. Don't worry. Go on keep practicing."
Yang Dao nodded and got back on the roller. Ayaka found the boy was drenched in sweat when she arrived. She assumed, the boy must have been here for an hour. She nodded. Even though he was late, she liked he was dedicated enough to practice by himself. Although the winters were ending, the morning air still had a chill and few people liked this chill.

A few moments later, Kiya, Sasha, and Icarus all arrived. Yang Dao nodded to them, but he kept on pedaling. Icarus said, "Young Master Feng, you are a monster and your level has gone high again."
Yang Dao smiled and said, "Drama queen."
Icarus pouted and said, "You don't love me anymore. UMMMM"
Yang Dao chuckled, and so did the girls. Ayaka came out of the clubhouse and said, "Dao, Icarus, you two go to the circuit and do a few laps."
The two nodded and Kiya said, "Can we also lap with them, maybe we will learn something."
Ayaka nodded, and the group came to the track. Kiya and Sasha had been cycling daily and have improved a lot in the past few weeks. Yang Dao put on the helmet and ran laps around the circuit. He was pedaling single-mindedly. Ayaka took notes of his form and nodded. The boy was riding better than before.
Icarus was following Yang Dao on the wing position. He asked, "Do you want to go to the guest lecture today? They called some big shot I heard."
The latter was silent for a few seconds and then said, "Personally, I was not interested, but as a member of the physics club under Professor Newton, I might have to go. Also, there are a few things that I want to ask the guest. So, most probably, yes. Why do you ask?"
Icarus said with a smirk. "I want to spend time with Coach Ayaka. You can complete early and leave." his words had no meaning. Ayaka did not even let this cocky brat near her. Icarus just did not want Ayaka to get close to his best friend. Silly, but well okay.
Yang Dao nodded and with a flick of his finger, he changed gears and accelerated. His speed increase. The boy stood up from his seat and danced. In an instant, he shot forward like a bullet. Icarus did not even have the time to react when the former pulled a lead of five meters.

The sportsman inside Icarus's heart woke up, but it was too late. Yang Dao was moving forward like never. His muscles were packed with explosive power and strength to move forward. His eyes were focused on the track. Soon, he left Icarus in the dust.
Ayaka nodded with a big smile. Yang Dao had subconsciously deployed the air pocket and was moving like a wind on the circuit. He completed the lap and even caught up with Kiya and Sasha. It was just a blink when he passed them and went forward.
Icarus soon caught up with the girls as well. He saw their faces and asked, "You did not even hear him approach, right?"
The two girls nodded, and Icarus said, "Now you know the horror of this guy. But other than him. The world is filled with monsters, equally powerful and horrifying."
Yang Dao completed his laps faster than the others and he passed them 3 times. Ayaka was speechless. He came to her and said, "Coach, can I take a shower and go to attend the guest lecture?"
The girl could only nod. After all, academic growth was important as well. Taking a shower, the boy came to the auditorium. The whole physics major course was present here. Some scholar students from other streams were also here. Yang Dao's arrival attracted attention. The seats were filled. A few people offered him a seat, but he refused with a smile and stood with the rest of the non-seated students.
Soon, Aislinn Jasper led over a few men and women. These people were all researchers who met Professor Elliot after his lecture is done. After the guests arrived, Professor Newton stepped on the stage and said in a mic, "Settle down, please. Today is another big day for our university. We have one of the leading scientists and researchers in atomic physics, visiting our college. Please put your hands together, and welcome, Professor Elliot."
The auditorium was filled with clapping sounds. An old man holding a cane walked into the auditorium. The man had a majestic aura around him. His steps were steady, his back was slightly bowed but his eyes were clear and sharp. The wrinkles on his face showed the vicissitudes of time on his body.
Everyone stood up as they applauded this man. This man was someone Yang Dao respected.

Home of Laplace
I opened my eyes to an unfamiliar mountain peak standing tall above me like seeing a skyscraper from the street. Soon the chilling burn of the snow that covered me began to invade my senses and I flung my torso upward, sitting up straight. I grabbed my head in confusion as my eyes surveyed the area around me: The corner of a mountain wall stood menacingly in front of me accompanied by thin, dangerous looking paths on either side. The likes of which only adrenaline-seeking psychopaths would use. I turned my head backwards and felt my heart drop as what looked like an infinitely long freefall met my gaze. I was sitting on the ledge of a snow-covered mountain. "CRKKKK" A heart-shaking croaking sounded from above me further up the mountain and I jolted backwards at the impossibly loud sound. 'Shit, wasn't there nothing behind me?' The sound of cracking stone accompanied the heart dropping sensation of descension. As I plunged down backwards, the last thing I saw was the deep-set brown eyes of that blue-skinned monstrosity further up the mountain. ----------------------------------------------------- Levi Laplace is a former genius biochemistry student that died a simple and laughable death on earth. Having studied profusely and written many papers published by large firms he was well-respected and accomplished in his field. But that did not prevent him from having his own problems in his personal life. Having chased behind the back of science for so long he had neglected his social life, ending up lonely and without a partner in his early twenties coming out of his studies. He decided that the best way for him to rekindle his social prowess was to retire to teaching high school science in a small town. He never ended up falling in love as he dreamed but he did find surprising contentment from dealing with the troubled raccoons he taught on a daily basis. Finding himself summoned to a strange world by unknown forces he is confronted with harsh issues and the struggles of its people. Meeting many more problem children, he is moved by his sense of duty to help them find their path in this journey through life. As well as find his own in this dangerous new world. ________________________________________________________________________________________________ Chapter updates DAILY AT 12:00 PM EST (...Is the goal, sometimes a bit later in the day or the next day at 12:00 instead :P ) Definitely at least once every two days though!

I am...*sigh* a speck of dust.
Hey, I'm...well, I'm not human anymore so I don't suppose that name matters. Anyway, just call me D. Why? Cause I'm dust. Not like, "Oh, no one notices me, it's like I'm dust in the air", but like..actually just a speck of dust. Nothing exciting going on, no action packed fights or cringey romances. Just...dust. I have a little system menu and everything, like all the 'OP' protagonists, but I mostly use it for the notes feature. Like right now. So, if anyone ever sees this, like, if the System stores it somewhere or whatever, just move along. Nothing special here.
