Doomsday: with unlimited warehouse system

Chapter 294 Emlyn

"Kid, did you see that?? Is this guy's strength enough to become your new master?"? Outside the valley, inside a decrepit wooden hut, the graveyard keeper reminisced about everything that had just happened in the valley and clicked his tongue.

Upon hearing this, a spark of fanaticism flashed through the eyes of the baby that the old man had pulled out of the grave, but it quickly dimmed.? Although it was a fleeting moment, the old man immediately caught it.? The baby shook his head, pretending to appear indifferent.

"He does have some strength, but he's just too young.? I'm one year older than you, how could I let a clueless youngster be my master?? This won't work.? I'd rather return to my Abyssal Graveyard and lie down properly."? The baby spoke as he prepared to leave the hut.

"Emlyn!"? Upon hearing him speak like this, the old man suddenly became angry and called him by hisname.

"Do you really think highly of yourself?? This kid is a once-in-a-century genius.? It's your fortune to have him as your master!? Let me tell you, don't think I'm unaware of what you've been doing in the graveyard every day.? You've been digging up people's ancestral graves to enhance your strength, haven't you?? This time, whether you agree or not, you have to accept it.? Don't think of harming my graveyard."? The old man glanced at the baby named Emlyn and surprisingly became angry.

Seeing the old man angry, Emlyn halted his steps and managed to conjure a smile on his face.? "What's the big deal with just a few ancestral graves?? When I shed this baby skin, I'll repay you with several ancestral graves."

"Nonsense!"? The old man began berating him loudly.? This left Emlyn completely speechless.? In fact, he was originally a graveyard keeper of the Abyssal Graveyard, just like the old man.? However, when the apocalypse arrived, he hadn't activated his esper ability in time and was killed by zombies.

The old man could only revive him through some mystical arts, starting from infancy.? However, he needed to gradually grow stronger in order to shed the appearance of a baby and mature.

To achieve this, the old man wanted Emlyn to receive more attention and even found several espers to be his masters.? In return, Emlyn was supposed to use his existing ability to assist them.

However, after the old man had changed several masters for him, all of them returned him because of Emlyn's explosive temper, which left the old man in a difficult situation.? David's appearance gave him an idea.? He believed that David, both in terms of strength and strategy, could completely suppress Emlyn.

This way, with David's help, Emlyn's transformation might be accelerated.? But based on the current situation, Emlyn hadn't truly realized David's strength.

Frustrated, the old man no longer hesitated and grabbed Emlyn's arm again, causing the wooden hut to disappear on the spot.? At that moment, David was busy sorting through the items in his system storage.

Suddenly sensing a presence in the air, he knew that the graveyard keeper had arrived.? So, he turned around and looked at the wooden hut that was faintly appearing.? The hut soon completely materialized before David.

Before David could approach, the wooden door was kicked open with a "bang" sound by the old man.? Then, David saw the old man holding a baby with one hand and walking towards him while grumbling.? The baby was also waving his fists, trying to punch the old man, but his arms and legs were too short to even reach the old man.

"Clive!? I'm not going anywhere.? I'm going back to the graveyard!? Hurry up and let me go!"

"Rubbish!? You must stay here today, that's what I say!"

"So you're starting to bully me now, huh?? Put me down and let's have a one-on-one fight!"

"Fight one-on-one with you?? Give me a break!? I'd beat you ten times over!"

The two of them bickered as they walked towards David, leaving him utterly confused.? What was going on?? How was it possible for a baby to speak fluently?? Moreover, judging by the voice, this guy had to be at least in his eighties.

Viola was drawn over by the peculiar behavior of the two and walked up to David, staring at them in confusion.? As she reached David's side, the old man looked up and said, "Kid, I'm giving you a handyman.? Just keep him around, and he'll do whatever you say!"

Upon hearing this, Emlyn got anxious.? "Clive, you old bastard, you're the handyman here, and your whole family is full of handymen!"

The old man completely ignored him, still holding him in his hand and waiting for David's response.? David scratched his head, becoming even more bewildered.? What handyman?? Keep him around me?? So he asked, "What do you mean?"

Only then did the old man remember that he hadn't explained Emlyn's background to David.? So, he briefly told David the story, helping him understand the situation.

In short, the old man wanted Emlyn to practice with him and the condition was that Emlyn must obey all of David's orders.

Emlyn seemed to realize that the old man was dead set on sending him away.? So, he stopped struggling and glanced at David coldly, saying, "Kid, I advise you not to meddle.? I'm not an easy person to deal with.? Be careful, or I'll take care of you."

Saying that, Emlyn clenched his chubby fist and made a threatening gesture towards David.? However, because he still had the appearance of a baby, this scene somewhat caught David and Viola off guard.

After calming down, David began to analyze the situation.? He had sensed a presence from Emlyn earlier.? Although it wasn't very strong, the quality was excellent, probably acquired through the ingestion of something.? This meant that when Emlyn shed his baby form, his strength wouldn't be negligible.

In that case, wouldn't he be gaining an additional helper?? Thinking about this, David silently nodded.? After wiping out the Shadow City, his next opponent would be the Zerg.? Since their strength was unfathomable, he needed to be prepared.? A helper was his top priority.? He intended to build his own combat squad in the Wasteland World, just like during the apocalypse.

Clearly, Emlyn was a good candidate.? After a brief thought, David readily agreed.

Seeing David's agreement, the old man finally sighed in relief.? Then, he threw Emlyn down in front of David and handed a small bamboo stick hanging from his waist to David.? "As long as he doesn't behave, use this stick to knock him."

Just as Emlyn was about to sneak away when he landed on the ground, David saw his attempt and improvised.? He picked up the bamboo stick and hit Emlyn's back with a crisp sound.? Instantly, Emlyn sat on the ground like a genuine baby, crying.
