The Urban Dao Child

Chapter 212 - Unlocked.

The boy finished eating the food with others and then he rode his bike back to the mansion where everyone seemed to be waiting for him. He sensed something wrong from the vibe. He asked, "What happened?"

Kiya walked up to him and said, "You are viral on the net." she showed him a video of him eating and chilling with the workers. The boy drank a lot of yogurt and milk when the laborers came to toast to him. He told them that he was still underage and that the laborers should take it easy as well.

He asked, "Why are you all upset about it? Is it a bad thing for me to do this?" he was totally confused by this reaction of theirs. Ayaka sighed and said, "Dao, did you call your people back in the city?"

Her words made the boy feel even more worried for some reason. He did not say anything else and quickly took out his phone, only to find that the thing was out of power. Recalling his routine, he remembered how he had forgotten to charge the phone. He dragged the phone in Kiya's hand and with his memory he called, Yurika's number.

The phone rang and the other side asked, "Who is this?" Yurika sounded exhausted.

Yang Dao asked, "Rika, are you okay? Is everything fine over there? I am sorry I forgot to charge the mobile. Did my video cause you, people, some major trouble? Showed I ask the people to take it down?"

Yurika said, "Dao, baby, calm down. Take a deep breath and listen to big sis." she paused and waited for him to take a deep breath. The boy followed her instructions.

"YOU, PROBLEM CHILD. WHO THE FUCK TOLD YOU THAT IT WAS SOMETHING BAD? ARE YOU SURE YOU DRANK YOGURT AND MILK AND NOT LIQUID COCAINE? URBAN HERMIT MY ASS, YOU GET HOME AND SEE HOW I BREAK YOUR SOFT ASS INTO A BLOOMING FLOWER." Yurika yelled and the boy moved the phone away from his ear.

His face was blushing. Suddenly he heard a calm voice, "Yurika, calm down." it was Mary who spoke. She took the phone and her voice came to Yang Dao's ears.

"Young Master, you do not worry. things are all good here. The reputation of the company soared because of your video and the views are still growing. We all are just busy here. You go and train hard. I wish that you win the event to support our hard work." her voice was calm and consoling.

Yang Dao did not realize that he had some tears in his eyes. For some reason, he was very scared from the moment Kiya spoke to him. The boy was worried that if something happened to the people back in the city what would he do? His fear came out in the form of the tear from his eyes.

This single tear surprised people and they felt guilty. After all, this was all just a prank they planned they never imagined that this boy would get scared. Yang Dao wiped his tear and said, "Please, excuse me." and then went to his bedroom.

He did not wait for anyone to say anything and ran straight inside his room. The boy sat down in the corner of the room. He seemed to have recalled how he missed his parents when he was a child. He was still a child but he did not miss his parents anymore. Those old memories came to him like a tsunami.

He drowned in it and tears kept falling from his eyes. Yet he did not sense comfort, the boy grabbed a cushion and after covering his mouth with it he bawled his heart out on the fabric. He did not care about the people outside. At this moment, he was aware of his turbulent heart and how he needed to let it calm.

The night went by in a snap and the boy fell asleep in the corner. After crying for the whole night he had finally calmed himself. He realized that in this world of mortals everything must end at a certain point in time. Whether you accept it with a smile or with tears that is up to you.

The sun rose on the horizon and the boy woke up sluggishly. Yang Dao stood up and walked to the washroom. He freshened up and walked out of the room. His steps were calm and his eyes were tranquil like usual. He met everyone at the dining table and greeted them with a good morning. Somehow his voice did not radiate the same cheerfulness as it used to be.

The old lady of the Orlenko family, Anastasia Orlenko, said, "Child, are you okay?" she was concerned about this boy for unknown reasons.

The boy smiled at her and nodded. He seemed to have reverted to his introverted side again. After breakfast, the team rode the bikes on the mountainous terrain and moved forward to their goal. Yang Dao was unlike the past, his body today carried an extra weight of seventy-eight kilograms. He did not want to interact much with the people and kept moving forward.

Kiya and Ayaka who pranked him were totally guilt-ridden. They had no idea about how to approach him and apologize. Yang Dao actually did not want them to apologize to him. He had come to understand a very important thing last night, if anyone was to come and apologize to him, then the boy would actually thank them.

They kept riding until it was noon. Yang Dao still stood in the middle of the stream. Unlike the usual, Kiya did not rush to give him food; more precisely, she did not have the guts. Nika picked up the food and with some hesitation, she walked to the river bank.

The book looked up to her and after taking the plate he said, "Thank you."

Nika nodded to him and turned back, suddenly she turned back and said, "They are all feeling guilty about the prank last night."

Yang Dao smiled as he looked in the distance and replied, "Last night they made me realize that everything in this world must come to an end. Their prank made me realize that life is unpredictable and worrying too much about it will make me vulnerable. I actually feel grateful to their prank."

Then he started eating the food. Nika was now facing him and her eyes described all the surprise she felt. This boy can take something like that and make it sound so positive. She wanted to open his scalp and check how his brain worked. Before she could leave, Yang Dao asked, "Can you tell them to not worry? I just want to be at peace for some time."

Nika nodded and then she left. She talked a bit to Kiya and the rest. The people gradually calmed down. The boy ate his food and they started to ride again. On the way, he looked at the laborers from a distance and kept on riding.

This routine continued for the next ten days. The weight Yang Dao carried in his weight suit increased to a staggering ninety kilograms. He was still with the team but the position shifted to the back. The boy was using source energy to push forward. This routine did not only increased his cycling capabilities but also his control over source energy manipulation.

...

There were only two days left before the team returned to Jade City, Ayaka told Yang Dao to ride alone on his own. The boy followed her instructions and just as he was about to put on his weight suit. He was told, "Let go of it. Adjust to your new skills and strength."

...

Last day of the training camp was a race. The race would start from the mansion and the team was given an extension of thirty minutes. Yang Dao would have to catch up to them within 15 minutes, otherwise, he will not be able to get through the pack and will lose.

During these ten days, the village reconstruction and the helping hand branch in the region was already set up. The boy spent almost all his evenings with the leopard and her cubs.

...

At this moment every one stood at the doors and Ayaka sat on the peak of the highest climbable mountain in the region. The thing was twice as high as the Ruby Peak. Mina Orlenko volunteered to monitor the start of the race. Yang Dao sat on the seat of his bike and the team stood in front.

Mina Orlenko said, "GO!" and they all kicked off together. The Dao Child sat back watching them vanish in the distance. Anastasia Orlenko, the old lady, said, "Child, don't worry. You can do it."

Nika's father had came back and he told his mother the whole thing. After spending a few days at home the man left for another business trip. Due to his intervention the marriage farce came to an end. The old lady had started to see the boy as her own grandson. The boy also did not shy away from her and the two had gradually became close.

The boy smiled and said, "Don't worry Grandma. I am calm. This thing is not enough to shake me."

The lady smiled as she patted his strong back. She just said, "Unlock your heart child, and the world will unlock to you."
