15 Drink The Blood
He was probably a college student a year or two older than David and Jane, studying while working part-time.
His eyes were instantly drawn to the man and woman.
Perhaps he was a little surprised because seeing them immediately made him conclude that they were a couple.
However, he didn't think too much of it.
He approached them with his eyes fixed on David and occasionally glanced at Jane's figure.
"Are you David?" he asked David.
"Yes!" David nodded.
After that, the man finally took out a key, and handed it to David.
"Let me take a photo as proof," he said.
He prepared his cell phone camera and took a step back.
David certainly didn't mind.
It was very short. The man left immediately after finishing, looking like he didn't want to be there any longer. After all, it's not a pleasant thing for a man to see a couple who seems to have every intention of making out.
When the man disappeared from sight, David smiled at Jane while showing her the key in his hand. He then inserted it into the keyhole.
With one turn, the lock popped open and the door could finally be opened.
"Jane, our apartment is very simple, please don't be surprised," David said as he pushed the door open, revealing what was behind it, a simple living room with a couple of sofas without much stuff.
If anything was striking it was its neatness.
In the corner, there was a closet full of science books.
"This is a nice place," Jane said, taking a step into the apartment.
She doesn't look uncomfortable or anything despite being born with a golden spoon.
She even looked around when she arrived at the apartment.
On the other hand, David closed the door but did not lock it.
He looked at Jane afterward, thinking that she was also very attractive when seen from behind.
Unfortunately, he didn't have the chance to hug her as Jane suddenly turned around.
She said, "let's start now, you just need to sit on the sofa and drink the liquid in the bottle."
Jane's eyes stared at David's shirt pocket because the bottle was in it.
"Does it have to be now?" asked David.
"It's more important than your desire," Jane replied. She had obviously guessed David's thoughts. The man still wanted to do something with her.
David pretended not to understand Jane's point.
He sat on the sofa and even put his feet up on it.
"By the way Jane, this won't cause explosions and such, right?" asked David.
From all the stories he had read, the awakening of superpowers like this almost always caused aura explosions that could even destroy houses.
David certainly needed to be prepared if it was going to make a mess of his apartment.
"Nothing will happen while I'm here. Not even the dust will move from its place," Jane replied.
"I can rest easy then," said David.
He looked at the bottle in his hand again.
To drink the blood, he didn't really hesitate even though it was the blood of another person.
He was also not worried about the consequences as he was one hundred percent confident in Jane.
The concept of Jane scheming with him was too impossible.
There was no reason for that.
After a few moments of staring at the bottle, David began to open it, which was surprisingly easy, just like opening a normal bottle.
There was no phenomenon after the bottle was opened. David didn't smell any special scent either.
The liquid inside the bottle looked calm. It didn't even look like blood despite its red color.
In David's eyes it was similar to the famous soda drink which was also red in color.
He looked at Jane who was currently also looking at him, looking calm and focused.
David no longer delayed, he aimed the bottle at his mouth, dropping the liquid inside onto his skull.
Due to the position he arranged, all the liquid inside the bottle fell directly into his mouth, but he didn't find any flavor in the liquid. He even felt like he had slept drinking anything.
However, when the liquid reached his stomach, he immediately felt a shocking change.
His consciousness seemed to be brought into an illusion.
He saw a vast sky and countless lightning bolts surrounding him.
Some of the lightning bolts were truly ferocious as they were in the shape of dragons or tigers.
They all seemed to be alive, watching David.
When David thought that everything had appeared, he found a huge faint face far above the sky.
The face had eyes full of lightning, looking down at him coldly.
His heart trembled from receiving that gaze.
In a short time, he felt like he was bathing in sweat.
Fortunately, right after that, his consciousness returned to reality.
However, he couldn't see anything as his eyes were tightly closed. Even he was unable to open them. His eyelids were too heavy to open.
Even so, he could sense his surroundings clearly.
All the objects in the living room of his apartment seemed to be in his mind. Even without seeing them, he knew where they were.
This was not because he was familiar with this apartment. He was sure that even if he was somewhere else, he would feel the same way.
All this was due to his sharply improved perception.
In his body, he felt a different power, seemingly trying to merge with the cells of his body.
Although it was something unfamiliar, he strangely understood immediately.
That power was completely a part of him.
If he wanted to use it, it was no different from moving his limbs.
It was just that it took a long time before he could open his eyes.
Perhaps after about two hours, his body finally calmed down, and he was finally able to open his eyes, which felt many times lighter.
