Chapter 19 - dormant power

Hyemi;

First family's firstborn son;

"Mother, I think little Guai will pass out from so many shocks."

Hyemi informed his mother softly to not disturb the now resting child in his arms.

He was still in the room with the small Tau who had gurgled and waved his limbs in excitement as he waved a mybon feather above his head before closing his eyes from exhaustion.

"I think having her become shocked immediately will be better than one at a time."

Her face grew serious, looking in the direction the small girl had not too long exited.

"Second brother has handed the results over from her medical." Hyemi spoke up, broaching the subject he had wanted to clarify with his mother since the night before.

"Do not show them here. You should be aware that many eyes are watching."

With that said, both headed towards the main house directly to the study, which was a secured area that can only be accessed by those from the first family. Anyone who dared to trespass would become a pool of blood, dying cruelly.

"The file has both her blood type and the result of her diet from the last year. We have several types of blood, but her blood is uniquely different. Look mother at how it quickly it reproduces."

"Ah, has the medical team who had personally cared for her been dealt with?" The first madam, his mother, exclaimed a bit shocked. Normally it should be showing signs of breaking down, but it showed instead signs of reproducing. How strange.

"Second brother had them dealt with. At present, they are living on the estate with their family."

Hyemi replied in a stiff tone, while his eyes continued to focus on the blood sample in front of him. Immediately his mind seemed to think of something that made him sneer in disbelieve. No, something like that can not be possible. Because of this minor thought, Hyemi found himself forced to look away from the sample in pure distaste. Him?! Hyemi would stoop so low? Never!

"Good, and what else?"

The first matriarch did not think of such trivial matters. She must fully report to her grandsires about this child she wished to take as her own. This girl simply resonated with her somehow in a way she can not deny her.. As if she truly had been birthed by her.

"Her diet is more of the carnivorous type. They had said before that her diet comprises more protein in order for her to function fully. It had been the reason behind her falling in a semi-comatose state for those few days."

"Mmm... The cook sent to the third family. Has she been informed?"

"I have informed the personal servant Hua; so the information should be passed on," 

"Good, we now we have a daughter in the family. You have approved of her. I hope that woman does not cause any problems."

"Mother, she will not,"

"And that one who still sulks around the second family's first master?"

"Allow Bo to deal with her and those servants,"

Opening a second screen, he sent a message to the second family's firstborn. With that finished, he then continued to converse with his mother before she left to return to the little girl.

For a while, he stayed checking the files sent to him a bit annoyed that. They could find not one lead about the origin of this girl.

It was obvious her blood was not average. Her type can reproduce itself three times the speed that has been destroyed and inseminate seamlessly with another blending with its new host, but the results were nothing like what it can do with its original host. Now that she has a home he bet that it could even be much faster once they feed her well enough.

"Give my nephew he will probably begin-"

There was a loud cry suddenly. Hyemi looked down at the small child who seemed to have read his mother's mind.

The boy wailed; while he did, it felt as if a powerful force was being pressed down on him. Hyemi felt somewhat confused by this; the reason is, the small child is merely a newborn, not even that old. The first mistress, on the other hand, felt her eyes narrow, wondering what should be the next move while looking down at the small child's teary eyes.

"Mother, what is it?"

"He has the... No... I thought... It shouldn't be-"

"Spit it out! What is it!?"

"He has a dormant power. Do you know why our family is being hunted?" the mother asked in an uninterested tone. Of course he was aware. Both of his parents had innate powers, he knew that he had they had been awaken for some time now.

This was a sore spot for him. How many times had assassins had targeted him?

Shot attacked, or his car bombed.

All of these happenings were due to one reason, their enemy was many and hidden.

"This power is the reason it will threaten the balance among the different factions,"

"Mother-"

"It is not time for us to speak of this. Just return him to her. He is probably missing her, which in turn is upsetting him since she is absent."

"I will, but you need to let me know soon. I will reach my twenty-first.." Hyemi's words trailed off unable to finish them even now after asking a few suns cycles ago.

The first mistress watched him with a sharp look in her eyes before nodding and replying, albeit unwillingly.

"Mmm, I will take him away before he weakens the seal,"

In a blur, she was gone, leaving him alone.
