Chapter 240

****

Skeleton appeared in the Old man's workshop, this was his pharmacy. The old man wasn't startled at his presence at all, it was as if he had expected his visit. "You don't seems surprise to see me"

(Laughs) "I am never surprised, you should have known that about me for years. I can't be caught unaware, I have lived for so long to be fully prepared" The Old man replied with a smile. On many occasions, patients who were injured would suddenly appear to him for treatment. He was a doctor and had already prepared his mind for any kind of interference.

"I see, my master summons your presence"

"Oh, is that So? I am currently preparing an important portion. You would have to wait for a few hours so it could be done" The Old man said, walking up to the furnace. Everyone, even Skeleton knew how obsessed the old man was with his formation of medicine and portions. Even the president himself would have to wait for him to finish all this first. "I knew of the fact that you would make a good person one day. You were bad, rotten to the Skull" The old man said looking at him

This rendered Skeleton speechless, what did the old man mean by the word "You are had and rotten to the skull". 

"What I mean is Core bit Skull, I don't know why I interchange those two words. It's really a big shame" He said sounding disappointed in his own self.

Few hours the Old man was finally fine with whatever portion he was making. After this he made himself lunch ajdtalked about a lot if events which happened before in history. Skeleton had to sit and hear all that story, finally the old man was ready to leave with him he just hoped that he wouldn't bring up more excuses. He didn't want to bundle up the old man and take him over to his boss by force.

(Sigh) "I have forgotten that I haven't taken my bath" The Old man said stretching his fore and hind limbs

"Speechless"

"Don't give me such a look, I would be done bathing in a jiffy. You don't have to be so tense okay?" 

Skeleton felt like tying up the old man and placing him on his shoulders. But he couldn't do that at all. His master would be displeased if she came across such things and he didn't want that to happen. He would just try his best to tolerate him, he could tell that the old man was trying to piss him off but he wouldn't let him.

Finally the old man was done bathing and now he was fully dressed up. Now skeleton was waiting to see what other excuse he would bring up. "Can we go now?" He asked

(Smiles) "yes we can, I am ready for sure*

(Smirks) Walking up to the old man he held the old man's hand and disappeared. The Old man was about to refuse but he couldn't, he could tell that Skeleton has reached over his limit

Finally the reached the three mistresses residence. Skeleton brought him I to the mansion. Going to the living room the only person he saw seated is Roselle. "Mistress, I had brought him over" he said looking around.

"Your master is currently resting, she shouldn't be disturbed. You can leave" Roselle ordered.

(He immediately disappears) 

"I am see and smell you old man, don't act any smart" Roselle said glaring at him. 

"He he he, I am not doing anything wrong am I? I was sitting comfortably in my workshop and someone dragged me over" He said finding a place to lay his butt

"I haven't permitted you to sit down yet" 

"You will, so much my waste my time? If I sit now or later, it's all the same thing, there's no different"

"Speechless" Roselle surprisingly did not find the man annoying, though his words were enough to get him beaten but she tolerated it. "Do you find me familiar?" She asked

"Though at my young age I met beautiful and pretty young ladies and I had a lot of fun with them, are you one of those ladies?" He asked with a smile. He spoke so proudly of those shameless as if he was praising himself for saving the world.

"Speechless" (smiles) "Old man, it's just a pity we didn't meet during those times you were playing around (she practically stressed the word 'Playing around') if I had I would have given you a good beating that you will never forget." She said, stretching her fists. The old man seeing this immediately shivered, he had never heard of how dangerous this woman before him was, but he had surely witnessed the power of the other two. He had two, this was because he had treated their injuries himself, so he knew better. This one could be worse than the others. He didn't want to get into a fight with her.

(Smiles) "Miss, you don't look familiar" he responded.

(Smirks) " Good then"

"Maids, get him something to eat" Roselle ordered. Looking around the old man saw nobody but since she gave the order it only means someone was attending to him. In a few minutes the maid came offering his popcorn and Soda, he was shocked by this. "This isn't food" he complained

"Speechless"

"This is just an appetizer, so take it," Roselle ordered. Hearing this he smiled happily, he hadn't eaten for days, so of course popcorn and Soda was not food to him. He immediately took it and busied himself with eating.

Roselle immediately connected a mind link with Selom. She knew she was already awake now "The Old man is here, come downstairs. Do you need a hand?" She asked

"I really need help," Selom said. We had woken up a few minutes ago and were having difficulty getting out of bed. She was so weak that her legs felt very heavy.
