Later, inside a room at the Aegis family headquarters, the boy was sleeping, still unaware of the events that had occurred since he was knocked out.
Suddenly, the boy's eyelids trembled, his mind was clouded, his body felt heavy, he could barely move to sit up, not to mention that he was very hungry.
"Damn, this feeling reminds me of hangovers after a crazy night in my previous world, heck, what happened?"
While trying to clear his mind, he realized that he was inside a strange room for him, although the mansion had many rooms, its decoration was very different from the one he was in.
"Better not jump to conclusions, at least until my head responds."
As time passed, his clouded head gradually cleared, with it the memories of what happened presented before him.
"Looks like they ended up taking me out of the mansion that day, damn old man, couldn't you treat a 4-year-old better?"
With this, the suspicions of him were cleared, he definitely should be somewhere under the influence of the Aegis family, although with greater security surely in their headquarters.
"I don't think the family after what happened 5 years ago will risk taking me to a place other than the headquarters, after all, it is their best guarded place."
The boy did not think much about the subject, after all, no matter where he ends up, for him it will be the same, what he should focus on is returning to the level of martial disciple and thus be able to compete with the other juniors of the family.
"Now that I fall for it, since I woke up I haven't felt the spiritual qi at all."
At first he did not give it much importance, he had come out of an environment with a high concentration of spiritual qi, so he thought that they took him to a place with a very low concentration of it, so he would have to try harder to be able to perceive it.
"Although my dantian is damaged, I estimate that it will take at least 2 years for it to fully recover without any outside help, so by then, it should reach the ninth level of refinement of the body, so as soon as my dantian recovers I will return back to the 1st level of martial disciple."
He calculated his time in this way because he knew that he could not advance at the same speed as he did in the library for 2 main reasons.
The first because the concentration in this place of spiritual qi seemed to be poor, so it would take him more effort and time to gather all that spiritual qi.
And second because his dantian was damaged, when circulating the spiritual qi, part of it would escape when it reached that part of the circuit, so very little spiritual qi would end the circulation, not to mention the effort that he would have to do to prevent the amount of spiritual qi from coming out of his dantian's opening from further aggravating his condition.
"It will really be hard to cultivate in those conditions, but it is better than nothing, although I don't know if I should start cultivating now or wait for the other children to join me later..."
Thinking about this, the boy analyzed his situation, his family knew that he had lost his bloodline and with that his talent when cultivating, but also, apparently, it prevented him from starting like the other children, since it was his bloodline that that it would allow him to reach higher realms before he was 5 years old, so it would be only natural for them to know that he shouldn't have any trace of spiritual qi in his body.
Reaching this conclusion, the boy decided not to start farming yet, at least until he was brought together with the other children and explained the situation.
While the boy was deep in thought of him, a sound brought him to reality, apparently there was a knock on the door.
"Well, at least they didn't take long, I'd better not let them wait."
So the boy got out of bed and headed for the door, but before he could open it himself, the other person stepped forward and opened it on his own.
Before the boy was a somewhat familiar face, who, thinking about it for a moment, remembered that he was with the group of the old man who knocked him out.
But now that he was looking at it more closely he could only have one thought in his head:
"It must be quite popular with the female disciples."
With an icy look, a face sculpted by the gods themselves, with sword-shaped eyebrows, a light complexion, black eyes that highlighted the characteristic crimson color of his hair, tall, which he estimated to be about 1.83m, of texture slim and dressed in a traditional Chinese tunic the color of her hair; the boy knew that if he was brought to earth, he would probably be chased by a large crowd of girls, that and adding that he was in the old man's group, made his first impression of him not good.
Daniel, seeing that the boy was staring at him, also did the same, leaving aside that the boy was taller than his age and his black hair with crimson spikes and streaks, there was really nothing that made the boy stand out from the crowd. others, that until he saw his black eyes, eyes that seemed to have a great depth, with an occasional sparkle, but above all a great emptiness that seemed that, if you were distracted, you would be sucked into it.
This surprised Daniel a lot, you would generally see that kind of looks in the elderly, who had already seen the world and their mental state was very high, so he was very surprised to see it in the eyes of a child who was not yet 5 years old.
But Daniel didn't think much about this and quickly looked away from the boy, saying in his usual icy tone of voice:
"If you are not missing anything, follow me, we will talk in a more private place."
Thus, without turning to see the child, Daniel left the room with an unknown destination.
The boy, seeing this, only mocked inside, his first impression of him was not good, he did not even introduce himself, he looked at him for a while and then ordered him to follow him, he really wanted to scream Who do you think you are? but he knew that this was not the earth, it could also be said that this was his "first conversation" with another human since he came to this world, so he held back and decided to follow Daniel in silence.
As they walked down the hall, the boy looked everywhere, he did not know if it was intentional, but he did not meet anyone else, not to mention that the path that Daniel had chosen looked like a maze, it was only 10 minutes after they stopped in front of a door that Daniel entered and motioned for the boy to enter as well.
"In the whole journey he did not say a single word, it seems that he is not the talkative type, so getting additional information will be impossible, *sigh*, with this type of people it is better to go straight to the point than to beat around the bush"
Thinking about this, the boy entered the room, it was very different from the one he had in the mansion with large decorations, here there was only a table, on which there was a small set of tea and a few dried fruits very similar to those of the earth, a cushion, and an incense lamp, so he assumed it should be for cultivation.
Watching the boy evaluate the room, Daniel realized that the only places the boy should know would be the mansion he lived in and the room he had just left, so he quickly said:
"This is a cultivation room, it is generally used when you enter seclusion, after all you need for cultivation is a heart dao, everything mundane is simply distraction."
Hearing this, the child simply shook his head, was that really the case? No matter how hard one tries to cut off worldly desires, as long as human nature is present it is almost impossible, for the child, instead of cutting them, it would be better to learn to live with them, but always keeping a dao heart, although clearly this did not say to Daniel, instead, he mentioned:
"I read about these rooms in one of the library books, I was just surprised that you brought one for me, after all, as far as I know, these rooms are generally private and cultivators do not allow them to enter theirs."
Hearing the child, Daniel was surprised, he did not expect the child to know about those things, but he also verified that the child was not ignorant, at least he knew the basics about the world, so he replied:
"You're right, but this is a room for general uses, it's not my real room so don't worry, rather, you should have questions to ask me right? I'll try to answer them later if I have the knowledge about it."
Hearing this, the child first took a seat on the cushion, took some dried fruits and began to eat them one by one and shortly after, he decided to ask:
"Where we are?"
Without hesitation, Daniel replied:
"We are at the Aegis family headquarters, to be exact, in one of the disciples' rooms in the center circle."
The boy was not surprised by this, it was more or less what he expected, but before asking him the question that he wanted so much he decided to play a bit.
"Who are you?"
Daniel hesitated a bit before answering:
"My name is Daniel Aegis, disciple of the central circle and I am 22 years old."
Hearing Daniel's age, it was the boy's turn to be surprised, Daniel looked like someone around 15 years old, so knowing that he was actually 22 surprised him, but then he remembered that when one passes a certain level of cultivation at a young age , this person would stop aging, maintaining their physical appearance.
"Daniel must be a genius even among the disciples of the center circle, well, not that I care, but let's ask this question, I would like to see him answer."
Thus, the child did not delay any longer and asked:
Who I am?
