Chapter 378 - Ring

*Vroom*

"Can't believe your dad built all this without anyone knowing."

*Creeaak*

"Helps to be at the top. I just can't believe how big this place is. We'll never find anything in this rubble."

*Scriiiffuuuaaffllle*

"What was that?"

"Just a Rat.

You know, why hasn't my Dad torn this place down? If it is such a big piece; then...."

"Ruby wants to hide the past from others; but your Dad clearly doesn't even know what that game is."

*BOOM*

"Now that was more than just a Rat.

Slowly now."

"Where is it? Where is it? Where is it?

I remember having it at one....aaaah. Here it is, but how do I....."

"DROP IT!!!!!!!"

*Tinggg…ding….ding*

"Hello Elwin. Couldn't kill me in public, so you came to do it in private?

You're more like your father than I realized. Always hiding what his true intentions were."

"I am nothing like him......…and you know that."

"Then just let me gather my things and I'll be out of your hair, and out of your life for good."

"But I don't want you to leave."

"You haven't done much to make me stay."

"Wait, don't leave."

"Take your hand off of my arm, or….."

"Or what?

Where are you even going?"

"You can't come with me."

*Shing*

"Woo!!!!"

"I'm not going to let you leave to go wreck havoc on another Kingdom, and just continue to walk away."

"Then why didn't you kill me?"

"I...…*Shiiin*

Just don't get into more trouble, and leave the Problems, for us."

*Cling*

"That's not my style."

"Then what is?"

"This.....is where you grew up?"

"Don't tear it down.

That's all I ask."

".............Then let's rebuild it."

"What?"

"I mean, your house will still be your house; but why not turn this into a school?"

"I don't teach."

"A training facility?"

"Mrs. Heartchild doesn't want me training."

"THEN WHAT DO YOU WANT?"

".....TO BE LEFT ALONE."

*Vroom*

"That...…could've gone better."

"She's right, you know."

"What?"

"She has helped us be free of our past, by defeating our Demoms, but what have we done for her?"

"You best not be thinking what I think you're thinking."

"Huh?

She dropped her ring."

"Elwin."

"I don't want to praise her as a hero or anything; just contain her from turning into a Villain.

What do you say?"
