"Angus, you're already awake. aren't you?" Asked Jacob.
Not getting any response from his sleeping son. Jacob creates a [Firebolt] on his finger before trying to launch it at his son.
However, at this moment Angus shouted, "Don't shoot.. Don't Shoot!! I'm already awake, okay. How the hell do you know that I am faking it?"
Looking at the awakened son, Jacob disperses his [Firebolt]. "Nah, I don't know I just have a feeling that you are already awake." Replied the duke carelessly.
"@$%%$^#@ Tch.. forget it. So, I didn't kill anyone, right?" Asked Angus in a serious tone while still lying on the bed.
Before the duke replied, he told his shadow guard to guard the door. "It's okay no one dies, judging from your tone, you already know about that 'berserk' state."
"Well, you could say that I know some part of it." As Angus tries to think hard how to explain this situation to his father.
"What do you mean by that?" Inquire Jacob more.
"Ahh… It's just that... I feel there is... something in me." Angus tries hard to avoid giving his true answer.
"Hmph... " The duke looked at his son seriously.
After a few moments of silence, "Since when do you feel this strange thing?" Asked the duke more.
'Did he truly believe it. Well, technically I am not lying.' Thought Angus inwardly.
"I don't know. I'm just aware that there is something in me and I can't control it." as Angus answered vaguely.
Hearing this the duke immediately replied, "I see, I guess this is also one of the reasons why you never try hard, right? Are you afraid to hurt those around you?"
'How come he concluded something like that? Well, it's better this way.' Thought Angus silently while nodding his head to his father's conclusion.

"Alright, I get the gist of the problem. But, still that didn't answer about your knowledge to medicate my wound. So, care to explain to me, my dear son?!" As Jacob asked seriously.
"Err… Well, I read in a bo...." [Angus]
"Angus!!" Shout Jacob as he releases his aura to his son.
"B-but that's true I read the method in a book (in my past life) and developed it further." Anwer Angus hurriedly.
Sensing that his son is not lying, "So, you are truly developing this technique alone?"
"Y-Yeah (in my past life)." replied Angus.
"T-that's… great!! No, it's wonderful." Jacob is happy that his son is such a genius.
'Since Angus was always smarter than his peers he may truly have found this technique.' thought Jacob inwardly
Before he finally realized something, "Wait, that means I am your first patient?"
"Y-yeah… (in this world) well, is that something wrong??" Replied Angus.
'This kid!! He makes his father as his genuine pig' Thought Jacob inwardly.
Alright, don't tell anyone about this before my return, Okay?" As Jacob pat Angus's shoulder.
"Urrgh…" Angus's grimaced in pain from his father touch.
Noticing this, "How is your body?"
"Ahh… it's nothing major. I just got muscle pain all over my body. Probably need more a week before it goes back to normal." replied Angus.
"Good, just don't overtax yourself. Wait, you are not using this as an excuse to laze around, right? Asked Jacob in a stern tone.
"O-Of course not, father. I truly can't move my body now." Angus replied hurriedly
"Alright, then I will be leaving. Also don't create something unnecessary problem before I come back." As Jacob goes out from the room.
After Jacob leaves, Angus feels a huge relief.

'Haaa… luckily my father misinterpreted my vague answer. Well, none of it matters. Now, I need to check my body first.' Thought Angus as he scanned his own body.
Suddenly, Angus found a massive hidden energy located at his abdomen. The energy is similar to his previous inheritance massive chi.
It is very big but also hidden well so no one beside him could sense this massive energy. Unless some people try to examine his body in depth will know about it.
The energy is like a thick gas of misty ball, the deeper he tries to inquire the thicker the mist and make him unable to see through it. After looking at this familiar misty ball, he knows immediately what this is.
'This is the heritage chi that I got from my master in my previous life. How come I get it suddenly? Moreover, didn't I use this chi to self destruct myself in the past?' Thought Angus.
After trying to think for a few minutes, Angus gives up to find the answer. It is not because he didn't want the answer but because he himself never truly knew this misty ball chi.
Even after doing countless research for years in his past life, Angus never truly uncovered his heritage, true power, origin, or its capabilities.
One thing that he knows from his predecessor is to use this chip like a sort of external chi battery. It could give inexhaustible chi towards the user.
However, it needs to be refined first before could be used otherwise it will consume the mind of the user like in his previous berserk state when Angus fought his father.
Some people with weak constitutions could even burst into piles of meat immediately because they cannot endure the power of it.
'Huff… I guess I got lucky to survive despite using this chi.' Thought Angus inwardly
Other than this its usage as external chi power, he never managed to uncover this misty ball chi its other usage.
After that Angus put his mind aside and began to look at his system. It's because his system also somehow recognizes this energy. He hopes he finds his clue about this in his system.
'Let's see my status first.' Thought Angus as he summoned his status panel.
Host: Angus Victory
Age: 8 Years Old
MP: 91/91
Foreign Energy: ???
Strength: 12
Dexterity: 12
Intelligence: 15
Vitality: 19

'Ehh… The system really is not helping at all. Well, at least my body broke through some bottle neck. Let's think about this later. Now, I just want to go back to sleep.' Thought Angus before closing his eyes.

Of Frost and Steel
After being kicked out of home by her own parents, Emily found herself living in the house of an old woman while working as a plumber to help pay the bills. Her slightly unusual but still very normal life came to an abrupt end one day when an incoming car crashed into hers. When she next opened her eyes, she found no ambulance or hospital room waiting for her. What she found were instead the faces of beings much larger than her who were not entirely human, and the opportunity to live a new life, free of her old one. WARNING: This fiction is dedicated to a friend of mine who spent twelve years of her life hiding who she was because she feared the reaction of her family. For this reason it contains LGBT themes, although they won't be the sole or main focus of the story. The story contains sexual themes, but I will try to keep them to a minimum or make them "fade to black". Chapters will be around 1000 words long and without a fixed release schedule, for the moment.
