章 54: Meeting with the Master

"Tasty?"

"Mm…"

It had not taken long for his body to realize how hungry it was, and before he knew it he was wolfing down the food.

His family watched on as though he was some exciting zoo exhibit.

"Brother… I should let the master know you've woken up – he was strict about making me promise to do so."

Gengyo nodded without inhibition.

"By all means. I wish to see him too."

Masaatsu nodded his understanding before turning to leave out of the door.

His younger brother heaved a sigh as he stretched back, enjoying the feeling of being full. Aside from the dull aching pain, he felt very much alive, especially after two day's rest.

"Dad, will you help me in to see mother before the master comes?"

Morohiro nodded, slipping an arm under his shoulder and helping him to his feet. A wave of dizziness hit and he almost fell over.

"You alright?"

"Yeah, just a bit dizzy."
