Chapter 11 - Poison

'What are you talking about? How am I still alive then? When was I poisoned? Gizmo, explain in detail please,' Axel demanded, bemused by Gizmo's finding.[Let me Clarify the poison is not mixed with Hosts blood or body but a small dimensional pocket has been created just near the Host's nails, it is filled with a very lethal poison that the host can extract and utilize at any point in time, due to it being hidden I had a tough time finding it, but I found a mention of it in my old functionalities which were destroyed][I had to administer the poison within you after a particular event, that's all that I could recover regarding the functionality. This is most likely the work of That Old Man, he had tinkered a lot with my functionalities. As I told the Host earlier I am the stolen property of The Starship Empire, and the Old man must have been using me or versions of me for his own purposes/sinister plans ][But each version of the system is independent thus the host need not worry about possible issue, as now I work at complete discretion of the Host]Axel could take a breath of relief after Gizmo's update, he vowed to have his revenge on this mysterious Old Man (even Gizmo was not aware of the old man's identity, most probably by design).'Gizmo how strong is this poison and can I utilize it for my own purposes ? ' inquired Axel. [Loooking at the structure and lethality of the poison, it can kill most of the Elementalists and only the strong ones might be immune to its effects. If I had to put it into numbers then Elementalists below level 6 would find the poison lethal][Just now I have transferred the control of the dimension sac to the Host, now the Host has to just will it and the poison can be extracted from his fingertips. Just a word of caution, the poison is quite peculiar and should be studied at length before being utilized and also it has to be administered directly inside the body]'Ok, just one more thing stop calling me Host and simply Axel would suffice'While Axel was busy in his own world, getting to know about the world from Gizmo. A nine-year girl was quietly looking at Axel from a distance, hiding near the door to Axel's room.This 9 year old girl was Anya, the only person in the Blair's household who loved Axel and had vowed always to protect and look after him. The Adults of the Household had tried to dissuade Anya, they repeatedly told her that Axel was a waste and a cripple who might not be able to function normally throughout his life. But to Anya, her little brother was the cutest thing in the world and she wanted to be his old sis and protect him forever.Axel was informed of Anya's presence at the door. Axel knew about the feelings of his family for him and appreciated the love Anya had shown him over the years.Anya entered the room and hugged Axel for about a minute. "How have you been my brother? I know you can't understand me but I really wish you would get all better and play with me. Bro If you are scared that you might get hurt outside and this is the reason if you don't want to get better than let me tell you, you have nothing to worry. I will protect you forever, you know yesterday father had my affities tested. And you should be proud that your sister has a great affinity for fire Element. The priest even told father that I was a generational talent and can grow up to become even more powerful than mother. You know how powerful she is right. So don't worry Axel, whatever fears you have your old sis will take care of it for you, I just want you to be ok."
