Chapter 29: Walking Beside Him

While Bella was gone to deliver the orders to the CEO ugly which was close by, Virus called Ella saying "Hey beauty, How about going out to eat something delicious?"

Ella then replied, "uh... sorry Ai, I'm really busy right now, I've got an exam tomorrow, some other time maybe?"

Hearing this Virus checked and saw she was studying.

He then replied, "It's okay, we'll just go another time then, good luck with your study, bye."

After that Virus closed the connection and started walking outside, on the way Bella also came back and joined him.

Together they started taking the elevator down. Inside the elevator, Bella started talking "So master the car I prepared this time is ..."

But she was interrupted by Virus as she was talking "No need for a car this time, let's walk in the city."

Hearing this, that she's going to walk with her master in the city Bella became really happy inside but thinking about something she asked "But how are we going to pick up Ella without a car... ."

"I just called her, she said she has an exam tomorrow which she needs to study." Virus said.

Then he said with a mesmerizing smile on his face which made Bella's non-existent heart almost stop beating "It's just the two of us."

After they got out of Virus' building they started walking side by side.

Any passer-by after being stunned to the point of never becoming the same person again thought they were a heavenly match and they thought they were a couple on their date.

'They truly worth each other.'

'It's like God made them be complementary... like they were made to complete the other.'

Thoughts like these ran through the mind of most of them after they came out of their stupor and daydreams.

As they were walking Bella asked, "So master, are you having fun?"

Hearing this Virus answered coming out of his thoughts "Well, even though it's a little fun playing around and slowly dominating the economic world while doing some cultivation besides that, it's still also a little boring, I mean mankind is too weak right now and they're not the true challenge I'm looking for, at least not the human beings of right now."

Hearing this Bella was stunned as she said "I meant... are you having fun walking... "

"..." "... Oh... yeah, it's fun." Virus answered without any change in tone.

After that there was a time of silence before Bella asked again "Master, previously you said something about cultivators or something... it got me curious since then but I hadn't asked... I mean what did you mean by cultivator."

"Cultivators are those who Cultivate to become more powerful, we can say they cultivate by gathering spiritual energy of the world, it's kind of something beyond science, but not exactly that either." Virus replied seeing her curious.

"WOW, Even though I suspected that would be the case when you said something about cultivators I didn't think it was actually this, I assumed just maybe when you said 'cultivator' you were talking about someone who cultivates something, a plant for example! I mean I thought cultivators existed only in movies or in those novels! But hearing they do actually exist... !" Bella said amazed.

"Well yeah, they do exist." Virus replied, "and that's exactly what I used that Injection for, though I haven't truly started cultivation right now, I'm laying my foundations for that at the moment."

"I see... um... master, can I be a cultivator too?" Bella asked with shining eyes after digesting the things about cultivators really existing.

"... With this body of yours, you cant." Virus said.

"I see." Bella said a little downcast.

Seeing her disappointed face Virus continued "But don't worry, after I'm strong enough to defend myself, I will make a true physical body for you too my lil Bella, at that time... you can cultivate."

Coming out of her downcast mood immediately, she became excited, not because of being able to cultivate but because her master would make a true body for her "Truly??? Master's gonna make a true body for me later?"

Virus answered in a very matter-of-factly way "Of course I will, I always wanted to make you a real body when I'm on the same level as you, when I can protect myself against threats. So bear with this body of yours till then."

"Okay master, I'll protect you with my everything on the line master." Bella said with determination and excitement, looking forward to that day.

After that, they continued their walk together side by side, while Bella glanced at her master from time to time.

Finally, they found a nice looking restaurant as they were walking and they decided to go to that restaurant to eat.

After entering and being led to sit at a table, both of them chose the food they wanted and ordered them to be served.

Even though Bella didn't need to eat, she could still enjoy and appreciate the experience of different tastes by trying different food, as the taste was literally the same as when you tried it with a true body.

But in truth, it wasn't the same as when you tried a food with a real body, maybe because the real body had real hormones or maybe the soul that made the difference.

According to Virus' experience, although the taste was the same, the non-existent difference between the taste of food with a real body and a robotic body was like the difference between heaven and earth, it simply wasn't the same, it was like a human with a soul and a human without a soul.

This was something a person would get only if he/she went through it and experienced it for real.

While they were eating, a beautiful blonde lady with blue eyes walked toward them, not taking her eyes off of Virus for even a second on the way, probably entranced by him.

After coming beside them she said looking at Virus "Hello, handsome... "

Taking his eyes off of his food for a second he looked at her blue eyes and replied without any change in expression with a cold tone like he was looking at and talking to nothing but a lifeless worthless object "What is it?"
