Douluo Dalu: My Martial Soul is VENOM

Chapter 2: Ch.: 2. Suotuo City, Job, Whale Rubber, Flender



"Village chief, now I'm going out." Man An says to old vilage chief who raised him with seriousness on his face.

"Alas, children will leave their parents after growing their wings, I can't stop you, but please don't forget to visit me, as I'm becoming old with time." Yu Shan said with a sigh and slightly trembling body.

"I will come every month to visit you village chief, don't worry." Man An said with sincere expression.

He was raised by this old man since he was few days old, so he will try to find a way to let village chief have comfortable life in these last years of his life.

He once thought to give him Fairy plants, but they are out of reach and even if he gets them, he is not sure whether village chief can absorb them with his this old body, but he has to try to find a way, if this way is not accessible than find another.

He hugged Yun Shan lightly and turned to leave with small bag on his back, with clothes in it.

...

After a few days.

Man An saw a big city which was very prosperous.

He entered the gate, good thing that this city hasn't started to take entrance fees, like Tiandou city.

After walking for a while he came to know this city's name was Suotuo City, where Shrek is located.

The good thing is that he can summon Venom as he wants and it will not take a bit of toll on his body.

Venom can stay in his body at summoned state like long time, not like other people whose martial soul will use soul power as long as they are in summoned state.

So he put the venom in his body, so he can become Venom anytime in dangerous situation.

He found that after he is possessed by Venom, he has enhanced strength, speed, reflexes, super stamina, super healing factory, tendrils and body manipulation.

But he found that after he is possessed by Venom his hunger will increase like nothing before.

He has craving to eat human brain, everytime he is possessed by Venom.

So he is eating chickens to put a hold on this brain eating craving.

He also intends to find Cocoa to make dark chocolate and Phenethylamine is like a Immortal elixir to himself.

As long as there is enough Phenethylamine and normal food he can fight as long as he want, before his mental energy is empty.

Man An asked a few people and came to knew where there are hotels, soul fighting arena, blacksmith and shops are.

He decided to work for someone to earn money to fill his stomach first.

While searching for a suitable shop, he came in front of blacksmith shop, but before he can enter it, sound of beating metals came and venom in his body started to tremble.

So he took a step back and turned to leave and find another shop.

He found a herbal shop with constant flow of people.

He entered the shop and asked one of clerk for a job.

After having conversation for a few dozen minutes, clerk agreed to give him a job.

His job was to cotegorize the herbs in shop, according to their names and gave them to prescriber as he wants.

...

Few months passed.

His life was running steadily, every month he goes to meet village chief and stay with him for few days.

He has a salary of three gold coins per month now, as he has made a trust between himself and shop clerks, prescribers and managers.

Today he was working like usual and taking out and categorising the herbs according to their works, he found a yellow crystal between them.

He picked it up, a sense of familiarity came to him, he wanted his thinking to become reality, while looking at this yellow crystal, which was as new as a new born baby.

"Hey doctor Meng, what this thing is?" Man An asked, showing the crystal.

"That thing is very powerful aphrodisiac, named Whale Rubber, but the pity is we haven't found a way to dilute it, so we can't sell it civilians and those novels and soul masters have their own connection so they will not buy things from us. If you want to give it to your Grandpa, I can give it you for ten gold coins." Presciber said what this thing is and joked in last.

"Really, here are ten gold coins." Man An quickly took out all of his savings and put the money in front of prescriber, who was stunned unable to react.

After a few seconds, his mind became clear and he took the gold coins.

"Well, I was joking and you took it serious, but if you want it, you can keep it, as I'm selling it you for cheap, with your talent if you found a way to dilute it, than tell us, I can increase your salary to 20 gold coins per month." Prescriber said.

Man An nodded and put the yellow crystal known as Whale Rubber in his pocket and began to work again.

After his shift ended in evening Man An left the shop and walked toward, blacksmith shop, unsummoning his Venom.

After entering the shop he found a blacksmith and asked him to melt this yellow crystal.

Blacksmith asked dwhat will he do with melted crystal.

He just replied he wanted to make a bowl, as this crystal is like a glass and there are already glass bowls in this world and inventors are those soul masters.

Blacksmith asked for a few bronze coins and melted the crystal and gave it back to Man An.

Man An quickly left the blacksmith shop, as he was feeling very bad, after awakening Venom, he also has weakness of venom, but it is not as strong as Venom.

Man An arrived at the cottage in slums of city and closed the door after entering it.

He quickly took out melted Whale Rubber and ate it after possessed by Venom.

His body suddenly started to heat up, but it quickly resided, than came a soft and warm feeling in his body, his body started to strengthen up.

He found that this Whale Rubber was about five hundred years, so this thing is melted easily, because more the older it is, more difficult to melt it.

After half an hour, warm feeling resided.

As his body was strengthened further, as for aphrodisiac it was stored by Venom, because it is also a type of poison and Venom can adapt to poisons slowly.

Next day Man An was walking on the street and found a new shop.

There was a man sitting in shop sleeping with book on his face.

Man An looking at logo of shop knew whose shop it was.

He entered the shop and started looking at products inside it.

After a while he found a yellow stone.

He picked it up and looked at shop manager sleeping.

He walked near him and smashed the yellow stone on table nearby.

Flender who was shopkeeper woke up jolted.

Although he knew that someone was in his shop, he didn't expected him to smash things in his shop.

"Hey boy, you're quite a brave one, if one of thing in my shop is damaged, you have to pay quite a big sum of money." Flender said with mean expression.

"How much this stone is?" Man An asked.

Flender looked at yellow stone, which he picked up in recent years.

"Fifty gold coins." Flender said wanted to cheat money.

"Okay ten bronze coins." Man An nodded and put the bronze coins in front of Flender and turned to leave with yellow stone.

"Hey boy are you playing with me, put the stone back if you don't have money to pay." Flender stood up and stretched his hand further to hold the yellow stone.

Man An didn't gave him stone, but Flender grasped his wrist.

Man An used his strength to take his hand out of grasp of Flender.

But Flender was Soul Saint so it was impossible.

"Hey you're cheating people, this stone is worth a two three bronze coins and I have ten bronze coins, looking at your face." Man An said.

Flender didn't want to argue with a child, but he was surprised as looking at strength of Man An, he used his soul power to check body of Man An.

He was surprised further as how can a six year old boy has physical body strength of spirit master.

Man An felt a probing in his body and was startled.

He felt anger in his heart and Venom possessed him.

Flender was surprised looking at towering two meter figure, before he can say something.

Venom punched Flender, who was surprised.

Flender just took two steps back.

Venom or Man An was surprised as he used his full strength just know.

"Boy you have quiet a persona, but I will teach you how to respect seniors." Flender made click with his fist and stepped forward and punched Man An.

Man An knew that he will be definitely blasted out so he waved his hand a tendril flew out and hold the street lamp and used force to jump out.

Flender's punch was empty, but he didn't care and jumped forward following Man An.

Moment Man An came out many civilian people were fear stricken and started running away.

Man An found that Flender is following him, so he used his full strength to jump to nearby building with his tendrils holding wall of that building, accelerating his jump.

Man An started to climb up building quickly not caring whether it was damaged by his sharpened claws.
