563 Chapter 560:A Glimpse Of Past And Future 3
The woman listened attentively as if she was hearing a great fantasy story.
After the narration was over, the woman gave Kevin a profound gaze.Not knowing what to say, she just sighed and tried to ease the situation and muttered”You have it hard.”
On looking at his eyes and observing his facial expressions over the time, she was sure that the boy did not fear her contrary to the way he acted.
Surely, he was startled and taken by surprise.But that’s it.Instead of fear, it could be said was survival instinct.Before dying he wanted to make sure to pay back his family, that’s the sole reason for him begging for his life even if he was unwilling to so so.
“Come here.”She beckoned him.
Kevin standing up, walked towards her.
His movements were a bit awkward,making it easier for the other side to discern that he was being forced.
Kevin glanced at her cautiously.Though, she was breathtakingly beautiful Kevin made sure not to offend her by staring at her too blatantly which made him look cute.
The woman tilting her head, extended her finger and tapped on Kevin’s forehead.
A jolt passed over his body.
Kevin, whose expression faltered, wondered what was this tingling sensation suddenly felt heart wrenching pain.
A thumping pain appeared in his head.
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!”
He clutched his head unable to handle the searing pain trying to rip his body apart.Stumbling on his feet,he fell down and rolled on the ground screaming wildly like a wounded beast.
Veins bulged all over his body and his eyes became bloodshot as blood leaked from his tears.
After writhing in pain for a few minutes,his screams died down.Kevin whose vision was dim and fuzzy felt his stomach churning and twisting.
His stomach bloated and then he vomited the things inside it.
BLEURGGGHHH!
After emptying the content,he fell on the ground lifelessly staring at the woman who was looking at him with a blank expression.
“Wha..What did you do to me?”Kevin murmured faintly, feeling as if he was going to die.
The woman twisted her lips speaking with a slight grievance.
“I just helped you and you are blaming me.”
“Just look at your puke.”
“Huhh!”Kevin gasped in surprise and tilted to the other side only to find blackish substance on the ground.
From it,he saw small wriggling worms.
Seeing this he sucked in cold air.His expression distorted,as he found the worms disgusting.
“These are gu’s.A type of worm that will suck your mana inside you and grow until they kill you.The only reason you are alive is because you are cripple.If you have mana,you might have already been gone.”
Kevin’s eyes widened with disbelief and his gaze interchange between the woman and worms.
This…This was too much.
Not only have they crippled him without knowing,they also transplanted these worms in him for further precaution.
In some way or another,his family was hell bent on killing him if ever awakens.This was beyond reasoning.
It didn’t make any sense for them to be so weary of him which meant they might be doing so willingly and enjoy bullying him.
For a moment he wanted to cry but he had no tears to shed.He wanted to let others know of his suffocating pain.
When he was small,he didn’t know the reason for being so wondering if his conduct was not good,he always tried to be pleasing to other eyes.He tried his very best to behave well and not to worry anyone but no matter how hard he tried he never got any love.
Except for Charsi who was loyal to him,there had been no one who thought of him as human.
Thinking about all of this,his hatred for his family has reached a new all time high.
Kevin then looked at her and cupped his fist.
“Thank you Miss,you are my life saver.Please tell me anything you want.I will try my best to repay you.”
“Miss,who are you?Can you tell me your identity before that?”
The woman pouted seeing the kid addressing her as an old woman.
“I don’t remember who I am or what am I doing here?The only thing I know is that I should slumber here until my body degrades but since I have woken up I wanted to enjoy the outside world.”
“But since you will go outside after a few years.You need to take care of and ease my boredom now after which I will accompany you on sight seeing and after having my fill perhaps I will sleep again.”
“Do you understand?”She asked, seeing Kevin giving her a bewildered look.
“Yes!”Kevin nodded obediently and asked”What will I call you?”
“Though my name is Hestia,you are not allowed to call my name.”
“Just call me master.”
“I can probably teach you some things.Also I have fixed your mana vessels,you are no longer cripple.”She spoke with a beautiful smile which made him a bit embarrassed.
A person who can fix mana vessels of cripples and cure them with a single touch is in no way simple.
Kevin reminded himself to not displease her otherwise,she might just make him disappear.
That’s how his training begins.
…….
The Mini Dimension was self sufficient.
There were all kinds of trees here and most of the food could be found on them.The Royal garden was filled with vegetables and fruits which can be used as food.Inside his storage ring there were more storage rings which contained food supply for several years.
On top of ready made foods,there are also raw,meats eggs and various other things that one can cook and eat.
So,his daily morning started with cooking.It was weird seeing the woman who had been in a coffin for an unknown period of time nagging at him to have her share.
His cooking was bad,still at least it was edible.Fed up with his bland cooking Hestia decided to take matters into her hands only to end up with burning the food to charcoal.
After that Kevin would get an earful for being so useless and would be asked to learn cooking as soon as possible.
After that Kevin would start his morning workout.
First he would start with basic training to strengthen his body followed by sword techniques and swings.

He would work out till afternoon after which he would rest and tell stories performing various acts to please Hestia.
In the evening ,he would sit and start meditating.
Days went on like this followed by months.
Being satisfied with Kevin ‘s progress,Hestia one day patted him and said”Kevin,you really have a god level talent.Gods have blessed you with great potential.”
“I am proud to have a disciple like you.”
Kevin, who was happy to hear her praise, suddenly frowned.
Hestia was startled by Kevin’s expression.
The atmosphere became heavy and there was chillness in his eyes.Kevin clenched his fist to the point that blood oozed out from his skin as his nails dig in her pals.
“Disciple what happened?”Hestia asked worriedly.
“God…Huhhhh…What a joke.”
“God…If I am said to be blessed,then I don’t think anyone would get curses.Instead of God’s child I am just an abandoned bastard.”
“If not for the prophecy, how can my fate be like this.The one who prophesies may be God’s servants who wanted to dig my grave.”Kevin cursed, trying to suppress his anger.
Hestia felt a bit hurt seeing Kevin pouting.However,she found him quite cute in his angered state.
She wrapped her hands around his neck and muttered”Oh My Disciple!You are quite hot headed,aren’t you?”
“Who knows if the person who prophesied is a scammer wanting to take you down.Don’t think about that,just get stronger.One day when you stand on the top of the world,you will know everything that has happened behind the scenes.”
“Maybe God has his own reasons.”
“You are destined for greatness and I assure you of that.”
Kevin heart softened hearing her praises.
His teacher was annoying and always troubled him but on the other hand,this was the first time some praised and cared for him.
Kevin didn’t know whether she truly cared for him or it was just an act.If it was an act then she is a master level actor.
However,no matter what after tasting the sweet taste being cared for,Kevin was really afraid of being abandoned again.
Thinking that one day,she may get tired of him,he started to work harder than before.
One day,when Hestia leaned on the chair made by a disciple reading an interesting story written by him,she suddenly fluctuated.
A gentle smile bloomed on her lips as he saw the golden glow over Kevin’s body.
While Gu was detrimenatal,after being taken out the amount of mana left in the body was stored and would give a tremendous boost in being awakened.
BOOM!
Kevin’s body jolted due to the fierce blast.His muscles seemed to be rearranging themselves along worn bones.
Soon,a golden cocoon encased him for a few moments which glistened and illuminated the surroundings.
Finally,the cocoon dispersed.
As Kevin opened his eyes,he found every fibre in his body screaming with energy.Before he could examine the changes,he heard a soft voice.
“Congratulation Disciple!You directly stepped in the mid Disciple stage.”
