Chapter 4: Chapter 4, Ava

Pushing the cover slightly so my hands can pass through, I noticed that my hand was very pale apparently I haven't fully recovered as I am still empty of energy but I guess I could still move a little.

Pushing the cover to the side, I pushed my legs outside, when I thought I will welcome some sunlight on my face, what welcomed me was still darkness with a small source of light.

Deciding to stand now and look around for answers later, I managed to stand up on my two legs, but I found them thin and weak just like hands.

Finding that I would fall on my face if I stayed like this.

I burned 0.000001% of my bloodline energy to so spread some energy through my body so I can stand straight.

The moment I gave my bloodline the commend, a very small amount of my bloodline was burned, although normally such a thing would injure or cripple whoever has done something like that, for me, it is easy to recover from this as the amount burned is negligible and I can recover by devouring others.

Back to my body after burning some energy, the energy moved through my body at a lightning-fast speed and spread throughout my whole body giving me enough strength to stand on my two legs, and letting some color and muscles return to my body,

Not perfect but that will work for now.

Sensing something trembling near me, I looked down and found a young woman with black hair that was covering her head and her whole body while kneeling on the ground.

The girl was trembling and there was a sound of sobs coming from her.

Noticing the girl, I gave a soft smile in her direction.

Although normally a kneeling person shouldn't be able to see the smile while kneeling with their head down, the girl was focusing all her senses on the man's face the moment he came out of his coffin, so seeing the soft smile with her senses, she said in a trembling tone.

"Welcome Master."

I just have nothing else to say to her other than,

"I am back."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After walking up and getting out of the coffin, a lot of things happened.

Like tons of them.

…..

….

…

Who I am kidding?

I just slept for the next few days after walking up waiting to recover some of my energy so I can move around freely.

While my energy was recovering, my physical strength went back to normal after a day's sleep, so I don't have to worry about anything.

After sleeping for a while I decided to have a little conversation with Ava.

In one of the many rooms in the penthouse that I begin living in.

The ceilings are high, and the walls are painted in a soft, cream color that makes the room feel bright and airy. The floor is made of polished hardwood, and a plush rug covers the center of the room.

The floor-to-ceiling windows offer an unobstructed view of the city below, and the natural light that floods the room is complemented by the soft glow of the chandelier hanging from the ceiling. The light fixtures are works of art themselves, with intricate designs that cast beautiful patterns on the walls and ceiling.

The furnishings are the epitome of luxury, with a comfortable seating area. The sofa is upholstered in a soft, velvety fabric, and the cushions are plump and inviting. The armchair is a work of art, with elegant curves and a high back that provides excellent support.

The decor is a seamless blend of textures and colors, with marble accents, intricate woodwork, and stunning art pieces that add a sense of sophistication and elegance. The lighting is carefully curated to create a warm, inviting atmosphere that beckons you to stay and relax.

Overall, the room is designed to evoke a sense of comfort, luxury, and indulgence, with every detail meticulously crafted to provide an unforgettable experience for guests. Whether you're looking to relax, unwind, or work, this room is the perfect oasis of comfort and style.

Sitting on one of the sofas that are near the large windows that are overlooking the city, I was holding a cup of wine in my hands and looking at my reflection in the wine.

Black hair, black eyes, and a handsome face would draw people's attention to it. Although all of this looks good, he knows that this isn't his original appearance and that those characteristics that people may be drawn to are nothing more than a disguise.

He can change his shape to anything he wants. He can also change his gender to female if wants but whenever that thought would pop into his mind, he would just delete it as he feels nauseous.

He can change his outward appearance to anything he wants but he prefers this shape. As for his real appearance, although he has an idea of his real form after checking his new bloodline, he knows that there is probably nothing here in the Universe that can push him to take his real form, as taking his real form would push his strength to more monstrous heights.

"Master."

Hearing a soft sound from behind him, he gets out of his thoughts and threw away any thoughts about physical appearance as if this isn't an issue.

"Didn't I tell you to sit little Ava?" I asked the young woman standing behind me who owns this place.

She is a little girl I took under my care in the past after breaking my shackles, as for why this has its own story to be told later.

"But Master, I.."

"No but, you are considered my disciple, not my servant or a slave, so there is no reason for you to act like this, come sit in front of me," I said with a commanding tone.

"Yes, Master," replied Ava in a low voice, then she went to sit on the couch that is in front of me, she then focused her black eyes on me.

"So, tell me, Ava, how long has it been since you woke up?" I decided to ask since I noticed that she is waiting for me to talk and was focusing on me.

"Master, I have been awake for the last half million years."

"Huh?"

"What?"

"Then how long have we been sleeping?" I asked startled since she seemed to have woken up a long time before me.

"Master, we have been sleeping for a billion years," said Ava with a sigh.

"Then why did you wake up before me with a large amount of time?" I asked curiously.

Although a billion years may sound like a lot, I wasn't surprised, as such a long amount of time cannot be considered a fraction of what I lived, so I was just curious as to why Ava have woken before me with such a long time.

And a billion years seems right to me for my body's condition to stabilize.

"Well…"

Hearing Ava speaking, I got out of my thoughts and focused on her again.
