The Urban Dao Child. Chapter 39
Advertisement
Yang Dao and the ladies ate the ice cream contently and then they went back to their respective works. Mary got busy keeping a check of the settlements offered by the companies. You have to say that the efficiency was terrifying. Feng Yun drilled back in her mountain of files and document signing. Yang Dao on the side was reading research papers with leisure.
Suddenly something came to his mind and he picked up his phone. He made a call to his professor. The call connected after two rings. It was professor Newt who spoke, "Hello, Student Yang Dao?" he had his number saved obviously.
Yang Dao spoke, "Hello, professor Newt. Is it a good time to speak?"
The professor replied, "Yes, sure tell me."
Yang Dao: "Sir, I was thinking. If I did join the physics group, you mentioned. Will I be allowed to conduct some experiments?"
Professor Newt: "Well, it is not actually possible for a first-year student to be conducting experiments. What kind of experiment are you thinking about anyway?"
Yang Dao: "Sir, Atomic Fusion. If possible, can you be the overseeing researcher?"
Unfortunately, Professor Newt was going through an existential crisis the moment he heard the two words, ATOMIC FUSION. He was silent for quite some time. Yang Dao had to call out repeatedly. Professor Newt woke up and said, "We will discuss this when you get back to the college. It is not safe to talk about this over a call."
Yang Dao agreed and they set up a meeting for the evening. Yang Dao spoke to Feng Yun who was working, "Sister Yun, I am going back to the college. Do you have anything for me?"
Feng Yun raised her head and said with a smile, "If possible do come over to the courtyard on weekends." she would not say that she felt lonely but Yang Dao around made her happy.

Yang Dao nodded and said, "If I have time then I will call you to arrange a pick up for me. You take care of yourself and don't work too much. Bye-bye." he waved at her from the cabin door. Feng Yun returned the gesture. Yang Dao came to the terrace where a chopper was ready to take flight. Feng Yun had choppers posted at different locations in case of emergency travel.
Yang Dao had ridden this chopper earlier and the pilot knew how big Yang Dao's status is so he did not ask any questions and directly ignited the metallic beast. Yang Dao sat down in the seat and tied his seat belt. He kept the doors open. This method was helpful in his interaction with the elements. The chopper flew up and Yang Dao started his meditation for the time of the journey. He was headed to the sapphire lake residency. There he will change into something more comfortable and then rush out on his bike to meet the professor.
During his interaction with the wind, his range of interaction and perception increased by another 5 meters, reaching a total of 75 meters. Yang Dao was happy with this change. After an hour the chopper landed on the top of the building. Yang Dao disembarked and after thanking the pilot he came downstairs.
He changed into a sports t-shirt and shorts. The shirt was red in color and the shorts were black. Paired with red high ankle shoes. He walked to the balcony and found the bike leaning to the window. A slight layer of dust was visible on the surface. This aggrieved Yang Dao, he shook his head and with a dusting cloth cleaned his bike. Then he put on the helmet and gloves.
...
Yang Dao was riding his bike to the college. Before leaving home he asked Professor Newt for his address. Professor Newt resided in the teacher's dormitory with his family. It was for his convenience to commute daily. Yang Dao did not see the cycling club on the practice run and decided to pay them a visit later on. His speed was very fast and he reached the college in 40 minutes. He used his elemental skill to offset the wind pressure.

The teacher's dorm was actually a villa complex. Every teacher was given a villa based on their level of experience. Professor Newt lived in a two-floored villa. Yang Dao located it after some effort. He did not have a smartphone in his hand and could only look for the place in an old-school manner. He pressed the doorbell. After a few moments, the door opened and a little girl showed her head from the gap. She seemed to be only 5-6 years old and looked very cute.
The girl spoke, "How may I help you?" her voice was polite and sweet as honey.
Yang Dao took off his helmet and smile at her. He replied, "Hello, my name is Yang Dao. I am a student of Professor Newt. Is he home?"
The girl looked at Yang Dao and said, "Please wait here." and she closed the door. After a few more moments the door opened and Professor Newt came out this time. The little girl hid behind Professor's legs. The professor spoke, "Yang Dao, I thought you would come tomorrow."
Yang Dao scratched his head and said, "Sir, this topic is very important and I cannot contain my excitement. Thus, I came right away."
The professor smiled and spoke, "Come in."
Yang Dao walked in and left his bike outside the door. The house was decorated very simply. He spoke, "It is very warm in here."
Professor Newt understood what he meant but he just smiled and did not say anything. After inviting the boy to sit down, he left to get some water, the little girl clasped the professor's trouser with her little pink hands, following him like a tail."
Professor came back holding a tray with two glasses of water in it. Yang Dao took over the tray and let the professor sit down first. Yang Dao spoke, "Sir, we don't need to conduct actual research but simulations to collect the basic data. Can this be done."
Professor Newt nodded as he spoke after some lamentation, "It can be done but we will need the help of the computer operations department."
Yang Dao asked back, "Do you mean Professor Dew?"
Professor Newt nodded, "Yes, Professor Dew. She will be needed to design a proper reactor simulation program and only then can we go on with this plan. But why the sudden interest?"
Yang Dao spoke, "I have been reading about this since middle school. Since the day I came back from an educational trip from the Crypto nation. I have wanted to make them feel the same they made me feel in their nation. This is the best way to make them bow."
Professor Newt nodded and agreed with him. Then he said, "Indeed the Cryptonians are arrogant. Well, I support you. Let me call Professor Dew over and have a detailed discussion over this." He glanced at the little girl in his lap and said, "Candy, get me my phone, sweetheart." his voice was so soft as he spoke to the girl.
The girl smiled and went to his study to get his mobile for him. Yang Dao smiled as he saw the girl's smile.

Madness Led by the Hands
‘Great, no… splendid. It was for naught.’ ‘Naught? Depends. If your desire is to send an army of killers our family’s way, yes indeed. If it’s plain survival you seek, then no.’ ‘They don’t coexist?’ ‘What… don’t tell me you’re still all groggy from the fall. Perhaps in novels, but real life is much tougher–––many more times a drag than anyone can possibly imagine. If dusty history is not a reliable teacher for you, then the pandemic surely took that place. At least that one has the advantage you needn’t be literate to savvy how reality always trumps imagination.’ ‘Whatever you say, whatever you say. So… what now?’ ‘Now? Isn’t it obvious? Now we shall survive. And live a good life.’ ‘Ohh… pretty much everything here has something against this little weird wish of ours. Might you consider?’ ‘Then pretty much everything here is a goner.’ ‘Hm, I don’t like the sound of that. Too much trouble, you see. I’d prefer laying low somewhere safe.’ ‘…nobody told you it’s mutually exclusive, no–––or did you forget about that too?’ ‘Fine, then I wish my future enemies all the best.’ ‘They are undeserving of your pity.’ ‘Of course not. That unlucky bunch won’t ever comprehend the reason behind their demise. Just let me smoke in peace and offer my condolence in advance.’ ‘Idem, let me study alchemy, unobstructed by all, if possible. This also includes you. By the way, are you sure you smoke to offer condolences? It seems like an excuse to me.’ ‘I-it is none. Plain truth, you see?’ ‘Seriously, why did I even ask...?’

The Solstice Wars
In the grey-cloaked cityscape of modern London, student William Whiteswift has two secrets: the Fae walk among humanity, and they are just as vulnerable as us. His childhood was filled with them; they spawned nightmares and episodes, dreams and obsessions. The nightmares remain, of course, but the fae are his normal. Now, he heals them, for William is gifted. When he saves a faerie -- a humanoid fae -- from an injury he can’t explain, William is forced to let her stay. Finally, he may have taken on more than he can handle; Ainsel could uproot his life in seconds. Instead, she cracks a Pandora’s box of mysteries: someone just flipped her home on its head. And because of that, she did something unspeakable. And somehow, she doesn’t want to hurt him. The longer she stays, though, the crueler his nightmares grow. Worse, governments hide secrets, too: they know of faeries. To them, all fae are monsters fueled by solstices and equinoxes. As the autumn equinox approaches, the culling agency COURT hurries to track Ainsel down. With teams across the United Kingdom and Ireland -- iron-strong despite the region’s history -- they are nearing success. A world away, their country wounded, the faerie leaders hunger for justice. In the looming shadows of war and of Ainsel’s mistake, can a human and a faerie protect each other against their own kind? Could their plight mend rifts between bitter nations and bitterer people? Or will it, like past attempts at peace, shatter? Quick note! I hope you all enjoy the Irish (Irish Gaelic) words here and there! All are defined or explained within the text. This is my chance to show off speaking it at least somewhat decently. Still learning. ;D -K
