Chapter 905: Becoming a Disciple
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After hearing Jorge’s words, Connor’s eyes flashed with a trace of surprise.
Subconsciously, he looked down at the pill in his hand and then asked with a puzzled expression, “Is this pill really so miraculous?”
“There are plenty of incredible things in this world, you just don’t know about them!” Jorge replied calmly.
After a moment of hesitation, Connor spoke in a deep voice, “Are you sure that taking this pill will make me stronger?”
“It’s not about making you stronger, but greatly improving your physical fitness,” corrected Jorge.
“How do I know if what you’re saying is true? What if this is a poisonous pill and you’re trying to deceive me?” Connor asked cautiously.
“Why would I deceive you?” the old man responded calmly.
“You have no reason to deceive me, but there are many people who want to kill me. I don’t know who is trustworthy and who isn’t…” Connor looked at the pill in his hand, his expression hesitant.
Although he believed that Jorge wouldn’t harm him, he had encountered too many assassins recently, and he couldn’t guarantee that Jorge was completely trustworthy.
Jorge said seriously, “If I really wanted to harm you, I could easily kill you now. Based on your current skills, it wouldn’t be difficult for me to do so…”
Hearing Jorge’s words, Connor raised his head abruptly and looked at him. He felt that what Jorge said made a lot of sense.
After all, he couldn’t even defeat Jabba at the moment, let alone Jorge himself. So, if Jorge really wanted to kill him, there was no need for such a big charade.
“I can give you a few days to think about it. Becoming my disciple will undoubtedly bring more dangers to your side. This pill itself is a gift from me. Whether you take it or not, it’s up to you. I won’t give you any advice. So, you can take the pill with you, go back, think it over, and then make a decision!” Jorge said softly after seeing Connor’s indecisiveness.
Standing in place for a couple of seconds, Connor felt that Jorge probably wouldn’t harm him. With the increasing dangers around him, the earlier he became Jorge’s disciple, the sooner his strength would improve.
And the next time he encountered the assassins sent by the Rockefeller Family, he wouldn’t be so embarrassed.
“I’ll take it!” Connor said quietly to Jorge.
“Have you made up your mind?” Jorge looked at Connor, calmly asking.
“I have!” Connor nodded lightly and then reached out to take the pill out of the box. He looked at Jorge and asked, “Can I just directly swallow it like this?”
“Yes!” Jorge nodded in response.
Connor couldn’t help but take a deep breath as he held the pill. His expression appeared somewhat nervous.
After all, he was just an ordinary person who didn’t even know about the existence of martial artists before he met Jorge. He had no knowledge of pills either.
Even though he now knew about the existence of pills, he had never taken one before. So, he still had some concerns in his mind.Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
“This won’t have any side effects, right?” Connor asked uncertainly.
Jorge shook his head and said helplessly, “I don’t know if this pill has any side effects. After all, I’ve never taken it before. But you can rest assured that taking this pill won’t kill you, at most, you’ll just have to endure some hardship.”
“Endure some hardship?” Connor paused for a moment, then furrowed his brows and asked, “What kind of hardship?”
“The main effect of this pill is to eliminate impurities in your body and improve your physical fitness. But if you want to improve your body, you’ll definitely have to endure some hardship…” Jorge explained patiently.
“Forget it, all this talking won’t make a difference now. I’ll know what’s going on once I take it, right?” Connor muttered softly, then picked up the pill and threw it into his mouth.
After throwing the pill into his mouth, he felt like he had just swallowed the most bitter medicine in the world. The bitterness was so intense that it made him want to spit it out immediately, but he managed to resist the urge and gritted his teeth, swallowing the pill directly.
After taking the pill, he moved his body briefly but didn’t notice any changes. He couldn’t help but furrow his brows and asked Jorge, “Old man, are you just fooling me? I don’t feel anything at all.”
“Do you think this is a TV drama? The pill needs at least half an hour to take effect once it enters your body, so don’t be impatient…” Jorge replied helplessly.
“Oh, I see!” Connor nodded lightly and looked at him, asking, “Alright, I’ve taken the pill and done everything you asked. Can I become your disciple now?”
“I already told you earlier, if you truly want to become my disciple, it might bring you some danger. Are you still sure you want to become my disciple?” Jorge looked at Connor and spoke slowly.
“Of course, I’m sure!” Connor nodded without hesitation, then continued, “I’ve put in so much effort, collected medicinal ingredients, and taken the pill, all because I want to become your disciple. Are you having second thoughts now?”
“I never said I’m having second thoughts. I just wanted to see if you really wanted to become my disciple!” Jorge said with a smile.
“Of course, I really want to become your disciple…” He said helplessly to Jorge.
“Alright then, since you really want to become my disciple, kneel down and pay respects!” Jorge said slowly.
“Kneel down?” He was taken aback after hearing Jorge’s words, then chuckled and said, “Uh, old man, we’re already so familiar with each other. Can we skip this kneeling part?”
“No, this is a tradition!” Jorge shook his head directly.
“What tradition? I’ve never heard of such a tradition before,” Connor furrowed his brows and asked.
“When a martial artist takes a master, they must perform the ritual of kneeling and paying respects…” Jorge said solemnly to Connor.
