Chapter 38: Super Leon?(2)
Blood pressure, pulse, body temperature, breathing rate, and heart rhythm—all exceeded normal levels. Muscle tension and a strange vibration in the body were also present.
Suddenly, Luxion spoke, quickly heading toward Leon:
"In the master's body, no abnormalities have been detected that could cause such a condition," he said, soon reaching Leon's room.
At the same time, Cleare and Legion also felt the same disturbance. Despite their duties, they immediately rushed toward Leon, while Luxion continued transmitting information about the situation to them.
What unfolded before Luxion was a scene he couldn't have imagined: Leon's body was glowing with a strange light. However, Luxion didn't let it distract him. He noticed that Leon's body had begun convulsing violently.
Quickly scanning Leon with his sensors from head to toe, Luxion prepared everything necessary to alleviate his condition.
First, he administered an injection, which instantly stopped the convulsions. Then, he moved on to Leon's heart, applying electrical impulses to restore its normal rhythm. Within ten seconds, his heartbeat stabilized.
The next problem was Leon's blood pressure, which was dangerously high. Using microdoses of medication, Luxion forcefully opened Leon's mouth and began administering the required substances to stabilize him.
By this time, Cleare had arrived. Together with Luxion, she began working to stabilize Leon's body temperature and breathing.
Cleare, assisted by the drones she had brought, started carefully cooling Leon's body, while Luxion dealt with his rapid breathing.
But as soon as they managed to stabilize him, his condition began deteriorating again. The convulsions returned—at first minor, but it was clear they would soon become severe again. His heart rhythm started to falter once more.
"I've never seen anything like this before," Cleare commented. "And I can't find anything similar in my database."
"There's nothing about this in mine either," Luxion replied, quickly giving new instructions. "Cleare, focus on maintaining the stabilized parameters, and I'll continue working to bring the master's body back to normal."
Luxion then began addressing the severe muscle tension. Robots under his control entered the room and manually started relaxing Leon's muscles.
During all this, a third AI, Legion, arrived, bringing a medical capsule with him.
Seeing it, Cleare and Luxion, with the help of the robots, carefully transferred Leon into the capsule.
The capsule immediately launched toward a waiting ship nearby.
As this unfolded, many servants from the Bartfort household noticed the commotion. Among them was Colin, who, upon seeing Leon's face twisted in pain, ran toward them.
"Brother Leon!" he shouted, almost in tears, drawing even more attention, including that of the Bartfort family members.
Noticing Colin, Cleare approached him to calm him down:
"Master Colin, your brother is feeling unwell. We're taking him to a medical facility to help him recover. Please don't worry—we'll take good care of him."
"Really?" Colin asked, looking at her intently.
"Really," Cleare reassured him. "Unfortunately, you cannot come with us. We need to focus entirely on treating the master."
Before Colin could respond, Cleare quickly left for the ship.
The ship took off and headed toward Leon's estate, which was located nearby.
Leon's lands consisted of large islands that looked like a fairy-tale resort. However, beneath the islands and in the mountains were massive factories working tirelessly.
The group made their way to one of the buildings, which functioned as a hospital. Thanks to Legion, who was equipped with advanced technology and knowledge of its creation, the hospital was filled with equipment capable of saving lives that conventional doctors would consider lost causes.
Without wasting time, Cleare, Luxion, and Legion utilized all available resources. Within ten minutes, they stabilized all of Leon's vital signs.
However, even after a full day, Leon did not wake up. His condition occasionally worsened, and the AIs continued monitoring him.
On the third day, a flash of light once again erupted from Leon's body. This time, it was clear that it wasn't magic.
When the light faded, Leon's body had visibly changed.
His muscles had grown stronger and more defined, giving him a level of physical development unachievable for a 14-year-old. His entire body seemed more robust. Moreover, it appeared as if Leon had aged 1–2 years overnight.
"Another strange anomaly," Luxion remarked.
"Something new and fascinating to study," Cleare said with a strangely enthusiastic tone.
Legion remained silent.
Leon didn't wake up until the following day.
