Chapter 8: Coffee
Chapter 8: Coffee
[ If you can reach your original Earth, then you will be able to become stronger. ]
' Alright then tell me about the herbs, I will think of a way to gather them. Also when I return will I be in the same body as my last life? Will I be in my thirties? Will I still have that fucking illness? ' Lucian threw one question after another.
When he arrived near the coffee machine, he saw a man sitting next to the machine, to help people. And it seemed that this slightly old man had a cough and a severe cold.
He kept coughing and suddenly a long liquid came out of his nose, seeing Lucian walking in that direction the guard got embarrassed and was about to clean it off on his sleeve.
" Wait, it's fine you don't have to feel embarrassed about it, it happens with everyone so instead of getting your clothes dirty just put it all in this glass. " Saying this, he passed a glass to the man, after checking his surroundings for any CCTV cameras and blocking the view.
' I- Is he an angel? ' that man thought and squeezed his nose in the cup then he even coughed a couple of times and spat phlegm in the cup and just as he was about to throw it away Lucian picked another cup and spoke:
" It's fine you should rest since you look so sick you should just go home and I'll ask someone else to take over for the day, also I'll throw this cup away myself. "
Saying that Lucian moved the empty cup forward and the sick man placed the dirty cup inside the empty cup looking at Lucian with a grateful gaze, and then he walked away from there to use the restroom.
[ Y- You aren't planning to do that right? Right? That's just pure evil. ]
" Anyway, just answer a few of my questions I need to know their answers to decide if I should go there or not, that place has a lot of memories after all. "
While speaking, Lucian's expression became cold for a moment then he returned to his normal self and filled the cup with hot coffee, after which he placed a couple more empty cups under it since he didn't even want to touch it.
[ If you return to your original Earth, you would still be Lucian but you will have your current body. So no, you won't have the disease you had in your past life and you will return to a time when you were around eighteen. ]
' That is just perfect, I have so many things in my bucket list that I never got to do, so I should gather the herbs as soon as possible.
Wait, don't I have any family in this world, what about my parents? ' Lucian asked as he arrived outside Lily's office, he knocked on the door and then entered.
[ Yes you have parents, but you have already been sold to the owner of this company who is already your wife, so right now consider your wife to be your only family. ]
" At least you are fast, I'll tell you other tasks soon you can find a seat for yourself, GULP Hmmmm the coffee tastes different today. " Lily spoke as he drank the coffee, but wondered why Lucian had used so many cups.
" Maybe because there is a lot of cream in it, anyway enjoy your coffee. " Lucian said with a smile and then walked out of the room he sat down away from others.
' Damn my parent sold me? So it means that that woman owns me now? Haa and my body is still so weak even though I don't have that disease but just walking for a while is making me feel tired.
Is there anything good in my life? ' Lucian released a sigh, when he looked to the side he saw the old man from earlier saying thank you to him and walking out of there.
[ Actually, the main character is training right now, over a mountain inside a cave. And there is a good opportunity at that place that will be of great help to you, do you want to go there? Since this would be the best and only time you would be able to take advantage of it. ]
" Yes, but how do I get out of here? " Lucian spoke, and in the next moment, the door to Lily's room flung open, as he shouted in a very loud and angry voice.
" LUCIAN, Come COUGH COUGH here right now, tell me what did you mix in COUGH COUGH in my coffee? Ughhhh it feels like my stomach and chest are burning up. "
' Wait are men really so weak in this world that he got sick in such a short time with just that? ' Lucian thought and decided to use this guy to get out of this place.
" I don't know what you are talking about, since... " He spoke in an innocent tone, then he stood up and stepped near Lily's ear as he added with a twisted smile:
" I only added the spit of a man who was sick, anyway it seemed you really enjoyed the coffee. "
" Y- You... Why? S- Spit? No way, you made me drink that, I'm going to kill you. " Lily shouted and pushed both his hands forward to grab Lucian's collar.
His loud voice attracted the attention of everyone nearby, they were surprised to see Lily in such a bad mood.
And they were even further shocked to see him attack someone, there were mostly women with a few men working among them, after seeing the scene several of the women ran there to resolve the matter.
" W- Why are you hitting me, sir, I told you I was just laughing at a meme and not your name ughhh COUGH COUGH " Just then Lucian fell back while clutching his chest, as a trickle of blood came out from the corner of his lips.
