chapter 12 : Mutated body

"Ah!"
The next morning, Helena Lu woke up with a scream. She jumped out of bed in an instant, first checking her clothes to make sure they were still intact. Then, she looked at Eiland, who was also sitting up in a daze.
Helena Lu glared at him irritably. "What's with all the fuss? You scared me." She got out of bed, and when she saw Eiland's condition clearly, she was momentarily stunned. Despite the room being at 18 degrees Celsius with the air conditioning on, he was drenched in sweat. What kind of constitution did this guy have?
Curious, Helena Lu asked, "What happened?"
Eiland wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a bitter smile, "I had a nightmare."
"Serves you right!" Helena Lu scolded. She then walked into the bathroom. Eiland remained standing in place, speechless. The past events turned into a series of nightmares, eroding him. If he were of weaker character, he might have already collapsed.
"Bang!"
In Eiland's extremely unstable emotional state, a glass of water in front of him suddenly shattered. This startled Helena Lu, who was in the bathroom. She quickly came out, surprised, and asked, "What's going on? Why did the glass break? What the hell did you do?"
"Gulp!"
Faced with Helena Lu's questions, Eiland didn't speak. His eyes were fixed firmly on Helena Lu's chest, and he struggled to swallow, feeling a dryness in his throat.
At this moment, Helena Lu was wearing a silk nightgown, which was already close-fitting. While washing her face or brushing her teeth, she accidentally splashed water on her clothes. Eiland's reaction made it seem like even saliva was about to escape his mouth. This scene... was incredibly stimulating.
Eiland thought that any normal man would have this kind of reaction in the face of such a situation.
"You... pervert," Helena Lu said, raising her hand to slap Eiland's face. With a "smack," her small hand landed on Eiland's big hand. Helena Lu struggled, and in the process, both of them tumbled onto the soft bed.
Moreover, Eiland remained on top of Helena Lu. He could now feel even more distinctly the softness and fragrance on her.
"Get off me... mm..." Helena Lu tried to speak but was muffled by Eiland's hand. She made a gesture of silence, mouthing, "Don't say anything, who knows if your mother is eavesdropping." Then, she gently released his hand covering her mouth.
"Go away!" Helena Lu glared fiercely at Eiland, who then calmly got up from Helena Lu's body. He thought to himself that even though he was a rough man, he still needed to maintain some gentlemanly manners in front of a beauty. Forcibly taking advantage was not a good idea!
"Eiland, remember, this isn't over," Helena Lu stood up and hastily walked toward the bathroom, being in there for a long while.
Eiland smiled wryly. As the instructor at MuLan Middle and the principal of a young, beautiful woman who had become a school principal at the age of twenty-seven, there was an insurmountable gap between them. So, although there were occasional ambiguous moments between them, Eiland knew that there wasn't much possibility between him and Helena Lu.
Perhaps, after leaving here, the two of them would have nothing to do with each other.
Eiland didn't dwell on such matters any longer. He collected his thoughts, calmed himself, and entered a state of almost inward focus. In fact, the shattering of glass just now was not without reason; it was caused by his will.
This was a secret in Eiland's heart. After surviving the snow mountain battle, his body underwent significant changes. Especially his will, which became exceptionally strong. He even felt that under his own will, he could directly take a person's life.
After surviving the snow mountain battle, what Eiland hoped for the most was to live a peaceful and comfortable life. However, since he discovered how powerful his will was, he somehow felt that he might never be able to lead an ordinary life again.
"Knock knock~"
At this moment, a knock on the door came, and Lin Hui was outside saying, "Helena, Eiland, are you awake? If you are, come out for breakfast!"
Eiland went over and opened the door. Lin Hui stood at the doorway, her face beaming with a smile. It seemed that she was very satisfied with Eiland and Helena Lu's "performance" last night, so she spoke sweetly to Eiland. She glanced into the room and asked, "Eiland, is Helena awake yet?"
"Aunt, Helena isn't feeling well. She's in the bathroom now."
Usually, if a mother heard that her daughter wasn't feeling well, she would be worried. But Lin Hui smiled and said, "You young people, always causing a ruckus. You should take care of your health, you know." Eiland coughed awkwardly and said, "Aunt, don't worry, I'll make sure Helena takes care of herself."
At this point, Lin Hui waved her hand and said, "Taking care of oneself is important, but you two should also work hard and strive to get married soon. It would be nice for us old folks to have a grandchild soon!"
"..."
Eiland was temporarily stunned. So, this was what Lin Hui meant?
"Haha, look at how anxious I am. Did I startle you?" Lin Hui laughed and said, "Although this is our first meeting, Eiland, Aunt has absolute confidence in you. You're a good kid. Aunt hopes you two can get married and have children soon. By the way, since we've met, when can you arrange a meeting between us and your parents?"
Eiland shook his head and said, "Aunt, I'm an orphan. I don't have parents."
"Oh, I'm sorry, Aunt didn't know..."
"It's okay, I'm used to it. It's not so bad without parents. In the future, I can be the son-in-law who visits you."
"Haha, then I've gained a son for nothing. Aunt can't ask for more." Lin Hui was actually genuinely happy about Eiland's words. After all, she gave birth to two daughters. Thinking about the future when both daughters would be married, she and her husband would be lonely at home. So, if a son-in-law came to visit, it would be much better. Therefore, in Lin Hui's heart, she was becoming more and more satisfied with Eiland. Now, she was even warmer towards him.
Eiland returned to the room. Helena Lu had already come out. He hurriedly went to wash up, afraid of facing Helena Lu's anger. Then, he quickly went to the hall to have breakfast with everyone.
