There is no cheat code for reincarnation? Then I will create one myself!
Chapter 4: Filial piety leads to strength?
It’s hard to tell the bald man’s age, but I’d guess he’s in his thirties.
Xiuyi's mood was extremely complicated at this moment. He knew that the choice he was making now was undoubtedly a crossroads in his life.
Due to the bald man's mood swings, Shuichi had to be extremely careful every time he talked to him, for fear that an inappropriate answer would anger the other party.
So what is the process of adopting a child in another world?
Half-kneeling on the ground, he clasped his hands and said: I am a wanderer and have not met a wise master. If you don’t abandon me, I am willing to be your adoptive father?
It’s a pity that there is no Fang Tian Hua Ji, otherwise it would be perfect.
"You don't refuse? Then I'll take it as your consent." The bald man gently stroked Xiuyi's short black hair: "Call me father and let me hear it."
Xiuyi felt bad when he thought about his father who loved him in this life.
But I am the fish on the chopping board and in order to survive, I have no choice but to acknowledge the thief as my father.
If he didn't climb up the pole, he might be knocked down in the next second just because he hesitated for half a second.
In any case, this body was born after the mother's ten months of pregnancy.
His father in this life had not treated him unfairly at all... Even if he took into account the possibility of reincarnation into another world after death, this world also had things he was attached to.
As a son, the least you should do is to provide for your parents in their old age and till the end of their lives.
Only the living have a future; the dead are just dead.
Reason overwhelmed emotion, Xiuyi suppressed his nausea, raised his head and smiled: "Sir..."
The word "Sir" made the bald man frown, and Xiuyi quickly changed his words: "Father, I just didn't react. I will change my words next time."
“Hahahaha…good, good, good!” The bald man laughed out loud and shouted “good” three times in a row. He swept his fingers over the faceless man and Shuichi who were still diligently making the [Relic] and said, “You laugh too, laugh too!”
Shuichi: "..."
The faceless man, who was wearing a black robe and had a shadow on his face, was obviously not a good person. He was very direct and actually held a rib and laughed out loud.
The faceless man's laughter is the voice of a normal human male, which shows that they are able to make sounds.
In fact, the faceless men should all be humans, but because of the special environment of the dungeon, they rarely speak.
Xiuyi had no choice but to laugh along.
Although he felt very happy at this moment, he didn't dare to show it.
After laughing, the bald man stroked Shuichi's head very sincerely and said, "Child, as a father, I have nothing to give you, so I will give you a piece of advice first... A good child must have his own ideas, remember?"
"Yes, I remember, father."
MMP in his heart but smiling on his face is a true portrayal of Xiuyi at this moment.
The bald man smiled so gently that it actually made this gloomy operating room seem less scary.
The bald man gently stroked the little boy's hair. The scene of loving father and filial son was very touching.
The next second, something strange happened...
The bald man raised his right hand and violently pulled out some of Shuichi's hair.
The scene was silent, no one expected the incident to happen so suddenly.
After a few seconds, bright red blood flowed down Shuichi's scalp, staining his right eye red.
"You are very handsome, which is your advantage." The bald man gently wiped the blood off Shuichi's face: "But as my son, you should not have hair, understand?"
“…I understand, father.” Shuichi lowered his head, hiding the anger in his eyes.
He took a deep breath, calmed himself, and asked in the calmest tone possible: "But you just told me to stick to my own ideas... I am very conflicted, father."
"Good boy, life is just a series of multiple-choice questions. If you don't do some of them well, you may die."
The bald man's voice was very gentle, without any threat at all.
"Father, why can't this world be like a math problem, with only one answer?"
"Because humans are complicated, kid. Even when the answer is right in front of them, some foolish people will still choose something other than the answer."
"I understand, Father. I will continue to grow my hair."
"Oh? Do you want to be a rebellious son so soon?"
"That's not the case, father." Xiu swallowed subconsciously and adjusted his mentality. When he raised his head again, he met the bald man's cold vertical pupils with an ignorant and filial look: "I found that father seemed very happy when he pulled my hair. In order to make father happy every time he sees me, I decided to grow long hair."
"You are such a good boy to your father."
While the bald man and Xiuyi were being affectionate and filial to each other, the faceless man continued with the work at hand.
He first placed the bones together and then introduced some unknown liquid.
When liquid meets bones, the bones automatically soften and become semi-solid.
The faceless man mixed these semi-solids together, added some liquid from other glass bottles, and began to stir them with his black-gloved hands, kneading them like he was making desserts...
This operation almost made Xiuyi vomit, but in order to save his life, or to please his adoptive father, he had to force himself to keep watching.
The feeling of fear inevitably grew in Xiuyi's heart. Although he still had reason, he could not control his heart from having wild thoughts.
Fortunately, the faceless man was obviously an experienced hand. After a dazzling operation, he successfully removed the impurities in the bones, turning the entire child's skeleton into a light yellow card the size of a playing card.
The moment the card was generated, the originally ordinary card immediately turned into black and red.
"My Lord! It's the [Cursed Relic]!"
The faceless man's voice was trembling, and it was unclear whether it was out of surprise or shock.
The bald man snatched the black and red card from the faceless man without hesitation. After carefully examining it for a moment, he snorted coldly, "Humph, trash is trash, even if the curse it leaves behind is so weak. I should not have let him die so easily. Wouldn't it be better to leave more resentment in the world?"
[Cursed Relic]?
This new term attracted Xiuyi's attention. He forgot the burning pain on his head and focused on the black and red card in the bald man's hand.
"Good boy, if you want it, I'll give it to you." The bald man handed the [Cursed Relic] to Shuichi: "The effect of this card can increase the effect of the Sealed Artifact by 50%. Correspondingly, when you are hurt, the damage and pain you suffer will be amplified by 100%."
Shuichi carefully took the [Cursed Relic] and looked at it again and again, but he could not see anything.
The bald man obviously recognized the confusion in Xiuyi's eyes. He tilted his head to the side and asked softly, "Can't you see?"
"Should I...see it?"
"Oh, I misunderstood you. I forgot that you haven't awakened yet, so I can't see the [Attribute]."
"Attributes?"
"Come, follow me, I will perform the awakening ceremony for you."
Having said that, regardless of whether Shuichi was willing or not, the bald man enthusiastically took Shuichi's hand and left the operating room.
