"be prepared to leave for the capital in three months" walking away from josh, he didn't care if Dio is found in the first place, its his son that insistent not him, getting to the door he spoke one more time
"josh 'Dio' will be angry with you where ever he is if you don't make it to the top like you guys always promise each other" ending his little inspiration speech he left a heart broken Josh to get over it by himself. starring at his father back he could only mutter under is breathe
"we promise to be at the top together as a brother but now am all alone, Dio why did you leave?"
in the wick mansion Reynard father was giving a speech to Reynard also, he is also heading for the empire academy
"Reynard you have to shoulder this burden on your own this time and bring our wick family name to light like your ancestor did, the heart family and the momo family both have a rare element in their family this time and the empire has picked interest in them already, we can't show any weakness, we have to show them that the wick bloodline is still at the top of power"
"yes father I will do everything to prove myself and bring our family glory once again like my predecessors did, like you did"
"Good, I have pull some string to get you into the empire academy since heart and momo family took your spot this time around, so make me proud and let the empire know that they has made a big mistake to choose them over us. make your preparation, you will be setting of three months from now"
"yes father" walking back to his room he ball his hand into a fist with frown 'josh I will surely deal with you as I did with that trashy friend of yours as for you Martha I will make you mine, I will make you bow your head down to me, let this race to the top begin'
'Damn that hurt, I have to find a way to start cultivating before I wear myself out already' Dio grumble to himself waking up from the exhaust past out he just went through
(you finally woke up, what happened)
"Am sorry for that, I exhausted my self and pass out, how long have I been out?"
(hmmm can't really tell but its more than a week, have been watching over you since then, but am glad you are awake, am about to die of boredom not going out to test my new strength and am starving too) *grrrl*
"now that you mentioned it, am starving too, can you get any rank one beast for me on your way back, I can take anything higher than that for now, my body can't handle the energy"
(sure, it's easy), blood flash out of the cave in a blink, he is so happy to finally get of guard duty and to test his new strength too
'waw, what a speed, I really am lucky this time that I didn't wear out, I need to take it easy, am lucky blood is just a rank three best, if he was any higher I will sure be dead by now'
sitting in a meditative pose, he push those thought to the side, he is more incline in finding a path for himself now, not every time lucky will be by his side to save him from wearing out.
'which path do I take now that I have a choice to choose my path, light, darkness, lighting, fire, wind, water, earth, light and darkness are rare and might be a good start but I don't want to just be rare, I want something unique only to me, what should I do, there are rare case someone have affinity for two elements and that is even rare than having light or darkness elements, I can start from here, having light and darkness or darkness and lighting, "fufufufufu" a rhetorical laughter burst out of Dio lip, though it still not satisfying, its better than nothing, wait why am thinking like a normal person, am not normal, normal people always end up been in heaven will, "hahahaha" heaven you just got yourself a troublesome rival, "hahahahaha" am not settling for two, am going for all, I will take everything you got, leaving you with nothing. Dio became like a mad man, laughing and talking to himself in the cave.
