Chapter 215 Autistic Little Boy

Bam!

His unconscious body hit the floor of the pod.

I truly have no idea what sort of shock a grown man with nerves of steel had to go through for him to actually faint.

I mean, the process of fainting from shock is pretty straight forward.

Extreme emotional distress causes the heart rate to drop drastically, which in turn causes a lack of oxygen to enter the brain, which in turn causes it to lose consciousness briefly.

The key issue for my big bro was the extreme emotional distress.

True, a little girl calling him Daddy was quite shocking, but for his battle hardened body and highly experienced mind to react that way meant that he probably had very high pre-set expectations and prior emotional build up with the girl, which when unmet, became a source of great emotional distress.

In other words, he knew the girl. Or at least, he knew about the girl and what she was supposed to be.

And what she was supposed to be was definitely not his daughter.

"Daddy! Are you alright?" The pretty little girl, who was back to being extremely vibrant and healthy, immediately jumped up and grabbed hold of my big bro's hand.

As she did that, the jacket that was covering her naked body slipped off.

I hastily turned my head away.

I was not someone who would take advantage of a little girl, much less a little girl with godly regenerative power who was probably the source of the incredible life energy for a three freaking kilometer radius.

A short burst of vitality surged from the little girl and immediately after that, Bruce Pang gasped and awakened.

"Daddy! Are you sick? Did someone bully you? I do not have my full power back yet, but I think I can still give every single life form here on this planet a good walloping if I need to!" The little girl said anxiously.

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

"Ah? Hahaha! I am fine! I am fine!" Bruce Pang laughed awkwardly. "Don't worry about me. More importantly… why are you calling me Daddy?"

"Why am I calling you daddy? Do you not like the word Daddy? Would you like me to call you Father instead? That's a little bit too formal, don't you think? Dad, perhaps? Or old man? But you're not that old. Or maybe… Papa?"

With that final word, Bruce Pang choked slightly and started to cough.

"You don't seem well. Are you sure you weren't bullied by anyone? I can detect very clear signs of distress and shock in your physical condition. Something must be pressuring you. Do not worry, Papa, I, Princess Augustine, will lay waste to anything and anybody who dares to make you feel so distressed!" The little girl declared. "This planet has nothing that can endanger me in the slightest!"

"Princess Augustine? This planet? Truth be told, little girl, I am a native of this planet. I have no idea why you're calling me Daddy or Papa. I do not have a daughter." Bruce Pang said very, very gently.

"Of course you have a daughter. I am here now, am I not?" Princess Augustine immediately said in an as a matter of fact voice. "And as to why I am calling you daddy, that's because your blood now runs in my veins. Physically and biologically, I am your offspring. It is only natural that I call you Daddy."

There was silence for a few moments as Bruce Pang and I tried to digest her words.

"I have a lot of questions." Bruce Pang finally said with a sigh.

"Ask away, pops! I haven't spoken to anybody for the longest time! I miss having conversations!" Princess Augustine said happily. "And why is that little mecha boy facing away like that? Is he autistic or something?"

"You can turn around now Justin." My big bro said with a chuckle. "He's not exactly autistic, but sometimes he does act like he is."

"Poor boy. Here, let me give you a gift." Princess Augustine said with an obvious trace of sympathy in her voice as I turned around to face her.

The jacket was back to cover her frail little body and she was looking at me with a pouty little face that was full of regal compassion.

Much like the Queen of the universe about to gift a poor little beggar a meaningless gold coin that would completely transform the beggar's life.

She stretched out her cute little hand and touched mine.

CRACKLE!

BA-DUMP!!!

CRACKLE!!

BA-DUMP!!!!!

Two powerful surges of electricity jolted through my body and caused my red mecha core to come to life for two brief moments before falling dormant once more.

"Wow. Your little mecha core truly is a lazy one. I've given him two shots of life energy, and still he wouldn't wake up! Haiya. I have never seen such a lazy familiar! If it wasn't too late for your to change it, I would definitely advise you to throw it away and sign a contract with a new familiar!" Princess Augustine remarked with a slight frown and caused a veritable explosion of questions to appear in my brain.

"Wha-whaaat???" I managed to stutter.

"Ah pops. Your little friend Justin here really has some brain defects. He doesn't seem to be able to understand what I am saying. Or maybe he has communication issues? Is he someone precious to you? If he is, I can try to help him a little bit more." Princess Augustine said while pursing her lips slightly

"Ah. Ehm. Yes, this little autistic dude is actually my sworn brother. Please help him as much as you can." My big bro said very loyally even as he dragged my name through the mud.

"Oh he's your sworn brother! Okay, in that case I will be serious in helping him. Hey autistic boy, I. Am. Going. To. Help. You. Okay? Don't. Worry. Everything. Will. Be. Fine." Princess Augustine said very slowly and considerately so that the little "autistic boy" would be able to understand her.
