Chapter 891 Become Ordinary
Zhen-Zhen's heart was not at ease. She suddenly got worried when she remembered what her father did for Tristan. This situation was somewhat similar to what happened five years ago.
"What happened here?" Tristan was also wondering as to why the room was enclosed with a barrier.
"Christian, my son...let us in," Tristan knocked on the invisible barrier, trying to call his son. "FaMo, can you break this?" he asked FaMo when no one responded.
FaMo shook his head. He couldn't break it. Among the five fire dragons, Blue was the one who could create the strongest barrier.
This time Zhen-Zhen stepped forward. She looked calm outside but deep inside, she was already worried sick about Christian and Grandpa Lu.
She pressed her hands on the wall of the invisible barrier. Then she closed her eyes, trying to sense Christian's movement on the other side. "Son, it's me, your Mom. Can you hear me?"
Zhen-Zhen's voice was solemn and sad. Tristan noticed it so he turned to her with a questioning gaze. "Wifey, is there something wrong?" Tristan held her shoulders.
Zhen-Zhen slowly opened her eyes and met his gaze. "It's Christian... I'm afraid... he is doing something to save Grandpa, in exchange for..." Zhen-Zhen could no longer say the next word.
Tristan could already tell what Zhen-Zhen was thinking. He just rubbed her back to comfort her. Tristan believed that nothing bad would happen to their son.
They were still trying to communicate with Christian when Zu Wan finally arrived, joining them.
"Grandpa!" Cassie immediately threw herself into Zu Wan's arms. "My twin brother shut himself inside our great-grandpa's room. We don't know what he is doing right now." Cassie confided her feelings to Zu Wan.
Zu Wan's eyes were filled with worry. His grandson was there, doing something they didn't know. What was the reason Christian locked himself up in that room?
Zu Wan turned to Zhen-Zhen and Tristan. "What is going on here?"
"Fa-Fa, I think... Christian is doing what you did before, saving Grandpa Lu. What if my son will also disappear?" Zhen-Zhen shared her feelings with him.
"Don't worry, Zhen. This is different from what happened to me 5 years ago." Zu Wan comforted her.
"Let's trust him. Christian will be able to save his great-grandpa and at the same time, protect his own self."
They were still waiting for Christian when suddenly the room slid open from the inside. Everyone's attention was caught by the person who emerged from the door.
They saw Grandpa Lu holding Little Christian who was lying unconscious in his arms. They were surprised to see Grandpa Lu awake.
"Christian!" Zhen-Zhen immediately ran towards them to check Christian's condition. He looked like he was just sleeping. Then a blue tiger cub showed up from the back of Grandpa Lu.
FaMo, Miho, and Scarlet were stunned upon learning that Blue had become a tiger cub. What surprised them more was that Blue lost his magical powers. They couldn't sense any magical aura from this baby tiger. His body shrunk into the size of a newborn tiger cub.
'What happened to you?' Miho asked Blue but the tiger cub didn't even respond to her.
'Eh? He didn't recognize us? Can't he hear us?' Miho turned to FaMo. They were communicating through their mind link.
"My Little Tian... He smiled at me after I woke up, then he suddenly collapsed in front of me. Let's call a doctor!" Grandpa Lu finally spoke up. There was urgency in his voice.
Zhen-Zhen took Christian from Grandpa Lu while Tristan hugged his grandfather tightly. They were glad that he was now okay. He didn't look ill or sick now.
Isabelle and Lucas called the doctor to check Christian's condition. Everyone was now focused on Grandpa Lu and Christian. They could tell that the miracle that saved Grandpa Lu was made by Christian.
They thought they would lose the old man. But now, here he was standing in front of them, looking so healthy. His appearance even became younger than his usual age. He looked like he was just a middle-aged man, not a very old man.
When the doctor arrived, he checked Christian's vitals. It was normal. After an hour, the result of his physical examination was also normal.
Zhen-Zhen also heaved a sigh of relief. Christian didn't disappear. And he successfully saved Grandpa Lu. Meanwhile, Grandpa Lu and the tiger cub, Blue, didn't leave Christian's side. He was very attentive to his great-grandson.
Zhen-Zhen and Tristan talked to Zu Wan including FaMo and Miho.
"I thought I was going to lose my son. How was he able to do this without disappearing?" Zhen-Zhen asked them.
Zu Wan smiled at Zhen-Zhen, tapping her shoulder. "It's because your Grandpa Lu is not injured by a divine dagger, unlike Tristan. Christian didn't have to use all his life force just to save him. But his action has a great consequence as well."
Tristan and Zhen-Zhen exchanged glances with one another. They were both clueless about it. This time, Miho and FaMo butted in to explain what happened to Christian and Blue.
"Blue lost his magical power. The same with young master Christian... he can no longer use his power. He has become an ordinary human being. Her life span was also reduced to lengthen his great-grandpa's life span. They both healed his sickness and strengthened his physical body." FaMo explained to them.
"And Blue had become a normal tiger cub. We can't communicate with him at the moment. We don't know if this is forever or just temporary." Miho added to support FaMo's remarks.
"So you mean... our son is going to live as a normal human being? He has no supernatural power now?" Tristan asked them exasperatedly.
Both Miho and FaMo nodded their heads. "Yes."
But instead of getting sad, Zhen-Zhen felt relieved. "I'm fine with that. As long as he is with us. Together with Grandpa Lu. The most important thing is... they are both alive and safe."
Tristan smiled after hearing Zhen-Zhen's remarks. They both glanced at Christian and Grandpa Lu. They understood Christian's love for his great-grandpa. He shared his life span with him. So they should respect that and just be happy with his decision. They loved them both.
"Don't worry, Mom and Dad. This time, I will be the one protecting my twin brother. I will get stronger as I grow up. I will protect our family against those guardian warriors!"
Tristan and Zhen-Zhen let out a soft chuckle, hearing their daughter.
"That is our job. For now, you have to focus on your studies and enjoy your childhood years. When the time comes, we will give you more responsibility," Tristan said to his daughter, patting her head.
"Yeah, just live and enjoy life. Don't think about those guardian warriors. We are the ones dealing with them," Zhen-Zhen added, caressing Cassie's cheeks.
"Okay, Mom and Dad. But can I request something?" Cassie asked them expectantly.
"Sure, what is it?"
"When I grow up, can I join the Fiery Eagles? I want to be a member of the Fiery Eagles!" Cassie declared.
Tristan and Zhen-Zhen fell silent for a moment before nodding their heads. They eventually agreed to her request.
And from that day onwards, Christian Davis had become a normal human being while Cassandra Davis continued to possess supernatural power that could control fire.
