Veena: "You see my daughters, I agree that you all are more stronger, talented, and older than Xiao Xiao, but I call her my sister because she earned my respect, probably will earn your other mothers and father's respect as well."
Sylvana asked curiously,"How did she garner your respect mother?"
Veena:"Well you see she was born in a very respectable clan not only that being the only daughter and the youngest child of the clan head she was spoiled rotten from birth. Yet when Ryuu was born like any other God level Divine body he was born without any spirit root, as such they thought him to be a bad omen, even his birth parents called for his death,,,,"
Shamiran shouted out in a anger,"They did what? How can someone be so blind?"
Nuwa:"Ignorance my child simple ignorance, God level divine body is so rare there is hardly any mention of it to common rabbles, to them even Legendary is something that exists in myth let alone Mythical and God tier ones. Plus you should know that only one type of God tier exists at a time only after the death of the current holder will the next one will be born. Thus their ignorance lead to their mistake."
Veena:"Absolutely correct my sister, even if that was the case because of his lack of roots they would have already abandoned them, to them their so called 'Honor' is important than raising some cripple. But, Xiao Xiao and her friend Zhu Zhu, were not like that they could not let an innocent to suffer, hence they left their cosy luxurious life and ran away with Ryuu, hiding and constantly moving from place to place living in backwater places, raising Ryuu as if he is her son. Then one day Ryuu's maternal great grandfather, told his clan to beg forgiveness and bring them back home, but their enemies got notified and attack them, your second mother rescued them and brought them here, but Zhu Zhu perished and Xiao Xiao is not only crippled but dying as well."
Veena took a deep breath and continued,"When I broke the news to Xiao Xiao, I thought she would be sad, but her main concern was Ryuu, when I told her Ryuu was safe she was happy, normally any cultivator no matter what would feel even a bit resentment but she did not, not only that even after I told her she would live 5 years maximum she seemed content as long as Ryuu was happy, people like her is rare very rare in our world. Thus I decided to make her my sister."
Antariskh:"She really is a nice person, and Ryuu is lucky to have her as his mother."
Everyone agreed at that, Nuwa then added,"Daughters Ryuu does not know anything about this, he knows Xiao as his mother, also he does not know she will die in 5 years time, do not tell him, he will learn from his mother."
The three sisters agreed to their mother's order.
Sylvana:"Tomorrow, Dad is going to teach him."
Everyone stopped walking, as they groaned," We hope he won't teach him something weird."
"Me too sister me too.", came another tired voice.
Next day,
Maheaswara: "Ryuu I will make you physically strong, normally I would make you do some exercise but unfortunately you are too young and it will hamper your growth, hence I will make help me out taking care of some evil spirits."
Ryuu's face became white as he heard the word spirit,"G-G-G-Gho-Ghost", as he turned around and tried to run with tears streaming from his eyes.
Maheswara sighed as he lifted Ryuu by the collar of his clothes, "Ryuu I will be there with you, I will not let anyone harm you" with that he carried Ryuu like a sack of potatoes and brought him in front of a weird looking box. The dropped him in front of the box. Then he seriously said to Ryuu,"Listen child everyone feels fear but only by conquering fear will you go stronger."
Ryuu sniffled and his lips trembled, but Maheswara continued,"Do not worry they are trapped inside the box in front of you. Moreover evil spirits are not ghosts."
Maheswara cleared his throat and continued,"Long time ago a big family of nice helpful moles used to live near a mountain faraway, but a bad man came used bad demonic arts corrupting them and turned them into evil spirits.", he took a pause in his story telling before seeing an enraptured Ryuu,"Now my young apprentice it is our duty to help this pitiful moles, so what say you will you hwlp me save them and reunite a parent with their lonely crying child, a brother with his sister."
He looked toward Ryuu in a dramatic flare as he saw a fire lit up in Ryuu's eyes as he stood up with determination, "Yes master, lets go and help them."
Maheswara nodded in satisfaction,"Well said child well said, now take this hammer stand in front of the box."
Ryuu picked with great difficulty a hammer which seemed bigger for someone his age and stood in front of the box.
Maheswara began with dramatic flair,"Behold my greatest creation,'HEAVEN SHAKING EARTH TREMBLING CHAOTIC ORDERLY EVIL SLAYING HAMMER WIELDING SYSTEM' a mighty tool to vanquish evil spirits", Ryuu watched his master with star struck eyes as he heard about such an awesome sounding tool, so awesome he couldn't even remember its full name,"Ryuu an evil mole will pop up in random from this hole on top of the box hit them with all your might, the black part will show a number, but remember child in order to save them you have to hit them continuously 5000 times if you miss even once you have to start again, until you finish it we will not do anything, now get ready and start."
Then from the 25 holes came an onslaught of moles popping up in random.
Maheswara watched Ryuu going at it with great determination, he knew it will be a long time before the five and a half year old completes this challenge, as he barely made up to 10 hit continuously.
Meanwhile, Veena and Nuwa both face palmed as they heard their husband's antics with the help of divine sense no matter how much time it passed their husband still cannot properly name anything, they will have to protect Ryuu from getting any bad naming sense.
