Derik couldn't help but ponder on the Rakuzen's words as he watched him leave. He couldn't help but imagine if Cyrus were by his side now, many things would have been easier. What would have happened if everyone from his childhood team were still with him, Kira, Daemon, Cyrus, Karl, and Donald. Back then they did amazing things even though there were only kids and lacked power. A smile appeared on his face as he refused to feel regret now! Things happen, people drift apart, and what determines a man's worth is if he can get his shit together and move forward.
He may have lost many friends on the way but he kept moving forward and that's all that matters.
At least that's what he believes!
BOOM!
