Chapter 1640 Threading On Dangerous Waters
"Hahahhahahha~... I can hear! I can hear again!"
"Baby... Is this what you sound like? I never knew you have the voice of an angel!"
"Wooooo~... My baby of 9 months, can finally hear us. I don't know what good my ancestors did in their lives to make my child get born in this era. But I thank them, and pray they continue to bless Baymard and his majesty with all their might."
"Yes! All Hail his majesty Landon!"
"All hail his majesty Landon!"
"All hail..."
"All hail..."
"Hail his majesty Landon!"
The father of all fathers, the founder of all godly technologies and the true savior of their lives.
All across Baymard, be it foreigners or citizens, several deaf people, as well as their families, all gathered in praise after watching a miracle unfold before their eyes.
That's right.
What his majesty Landon did, was akin to making a blind person see again.
Over the years, he and the many doctors, have done uncountable miracles like curing cleft lips, removing cursed parts (large tumors), and even making several people walk again.
Now, he even recover technology that could make a human recover one of their most important senses --Hearing.
So how can you not say it's a miracle? You have to know that the first time he heard of these hearing aids, they were the first to deny it flatly.
In fact, a majority of people thought it was fake.
Never in the history of the world, has anyone ever heard of a deaf person regaining their hearing.
Even though Baymard has continuously created miracles, many didn't fully believe the news, wanting to see how the first group of patients reacted to the so-called heading aids.
But this decision was what many regretted the most.
F***!
Are you saying the first 30 deaf patients had their hearing aids for free, while the next 50 patients had theirs at a 70% discount mark?
And what do you mean by saying the next 100 people had also been given a 40% discount?
Dammit!
Those who were in Baymard at the time regretted it to the point that their intestine turned green.
Mathew was amongst the group of those who registered back then at a 70% discount off.
So accompanied by his medical insurance, the total amount he had to pay was nearly nothing.
He only delayed the matter after registering, because he wanted to first communicate with his Emily.
Sure enough, the number of people rushing in from all over the UN empires was quite a lot. Even blue skin and dark skin people also rushed in like crazy.
Some people had lost their hearing after fatal battle injuries to the head, while some lost their hearing from accidents during childhood. And for some, like Mathew, it was right from birth.
Mathew's inferiority complex came from the fact that many thought he was damned by the ancestors, cursed to live without gearing as punishment for killing his mother at birth.
Everyone looked at him like a plague, but Emily never did so. She still remembered her mother's dying words and brought Mathew up by herself.
Thanks to Baymard, things started changing several years back, and no one in their hometown saw her brother as a plague again. Rather, they thought he was sickly and too pitiful.
Well, it was better than being stunned by little children or being booed at him now and then.
Ignorance was truly a harmful thing.
That's why to Mayhew, Baymard was more than just a place. Here, he felt more at home than back in his hometown.
It's not that he never had conflicts here. Conflicts between people were what made them human. And everywhere one went, even if it was in heaven, he felt there should also be conflicts there.
But no one mentioned his disability in fights. They treated him like a complete man, and not one that needed their constant sympathy.
All he wanted was to be treated like everyone else among his peers. And here they fulfilled his wishes.
(^_^)
Here, he had friends from both him the special school and ordinary schools.
Here, the 10-year-old Mathew felt like a complete man!
Like so, many were going crazy over Baymard's latest medical miracle. However, they weren't the only ones bubbling with excitement.

--The High Seas, Caronian Water borders--
.
BOOOM!!!
The storm at sea was a wild one. She went up in tempo, every wave clashing high with the strength of Poseidon.
The massive dark clouds and the vicious winds worked together in chaotic harmony, as they raised high waves of blue ever-changing mosaics that splashed in from all directions.
"Hold them down, boys! Man the sails!!!"
BROOM!
Heaps of water clashed against the magnificent wooden galleys, rocking them vigorously.
Dammit!
The men on the ships held the ropes as tight as they could, trying their best to control the situation.
Though it has been raining for several days now there hasn't been a storm yet. Buy today's waves weren't ordinary. And what was annoying was that it took them by surprise.
Son of a b**ch!
The ships were rocking too hard, and the fear was the troublesome waves that could topple their ships over if not careful.
There are no steering wheels invented yet, so they had to control things with all the men they've got!
"Mighty Mabel, coming in from the left! Everyone, he ready!"
Mighty Mabel... It described a certain wave's power. It was a universal nickname for sailors. Everyone knows the seas have a heart of their own.
In folk legends, Mabel is described as the sea's 5th daughter. She's playful but has a temper that could set an entire forest ablaze.
The wave was a deadly one, having a similar size to that of their ships. But it was unbeatable.
The rains poured hard on the men, as they got ready to defeat the monstrous waves coming at them.
For a moment, their senses were altered and their hair all standing exactly, as they watched countless fishes fly aboard their ships.
Everyone postponed themselves waiting for the right opportunity, describing the cumbersome wave closing in on them.
"Steady... Steady... Now!!"
Brrrrrmmm!!!!
The ships seemed to fly, as they found the perfect able to climb above the wave.
Success!
They did. But the war was over yet. It took another 2 hours for the storm to cease. And soon, the waters, though rough, were far more silent than before.
~Phew.
They survived. And though they were thrown off course, it wasn't a major issue for them.
As for where they were headed and what mission they were on, that was an even more confidential matter... One, they meant to accomplish.
And it involved the one they called her Majesty, Queen Penelope!
