"Ryuyong!!"
"Ryuyong!!"
'What am I going to do with this boy?' She thought to herself.
While Lina was trying to find Ryuyong, she saw her elder son Arthur and daughter Itsuki getting ready for their class.
She went near them and asked, "Has anyone of you seen Ryuyong?"
"Did you check the library? Recently for some reason, he has been spending a lot of time in the library," Said Itsuki.
"The library?" "What is he doing there?"
Lina then made her way to the library which is located near the main gate of the Yotsuba estate.
As soon as she entered the library, she heard a lot of books falling from the rack and someone yelling *OUCH!! *
"Ryuyong!!" Lina shouted and rushed inside the library to find him.
At the end of the room, a boy with black hair and beautiful eyes was sitting on the floor rubbing his butt in pain, "There you are," Lina shouted at him with a worried face.
"Are you hurt?" She asked him with a misty eye.
With a smile on his face, he said, "I'm fine mom, Sorry to have worried you."
Lina pulled Ryuyong into her embrace and then kissed him on his forehead and said, "stop worrying me like this."
"Anyways, what were you doing in the library?" Lina asked Ryuyong.
"Reading books, what else do you do in a library, mom?"
"Wha...What you can read these books?!" Lina asked Ryuyong with a shocked expression.
"Can you comprehend these books?" She asked him again as the books he was reading were about magic which was impossible for a five-year-old to understand.
With confidence in his voice and a big smile on his face, he said, "These books are too easy also reading and learning about magic is too fun and fascinating."
"One day, I want to become the strongest sorcerer in the world," Ryuyong added.
Lina looked at his determined eyes and understood that Ryuyong was serious about his dream.
"No matter what anyone tells you, make sure to work hard and achieve your dream, never let anyone drag you down!" Lina encouraged Ryuyong to which he nodded.
"Satoshi sensei is waiting at the training ground. Quickly go and change into your training outfit, and meet him there before he loses his temper." Lina told him as it was time for his sword training.
"Holy shi... I forgot I had training today. I have to reach there before he gets angry. I will see you later." Ryuyong then went to his room and changed into his training outfit and then rushed to the training ground as only a few minutes were remaining for the class to start."
---------------------------------------------------------
-----< In the training ground>-----
"Everyone take your position." A tall man with dark red hair and a big scar on his face told all the 25 students to take their positions in his bold voice.
"Everyone, Start your warmup. If I find anyone slacking off, I will make sure that person runs the ground 500 times understood."
"Yes, Sensei." Everyone in chorus.
------<25 Minutes Later>-----
"Today, we will determine which style each of you is compatible with and will practice from now on, I will call out each of your names, come forward and place your hand on the crystal."
"Before we start, let me remind everyone again, the sword style you practice need not be related to your magic element. For example, your magic element might be fire, but the sword style you practice can be anything. That said, not everyone is compatible with sword styles. You may or may not awaken a style."
"There are four styles in total red means fire, blue means water, yellow means thunder, and white means ice."
"Now, each of you will come forward and place your hand on the crystal to determine your style, understood."
"Yes, sensei." Everyone in chorus.
'I wonder what my style is going to be.' Ryuyong thought to himself.
While Ryuyong was lost, in his thoughts, he suddenly heard, "Arthur, your style is fire, and Itsuki, your style is ice." He ran to his brother and sister and congratulated them.
"Ryuyong you're the last one, come forward and place your hand on the crystal." With full excitement, Ryuyong ran to the crystal to find out about his sword style.
At that time many elders of the Yotsuba family came to the ground to see which style each of them has awakened. "Place your hand on the crystal." Satoshi Sensei told Ryuyong in a calm voice as he saw Ryuyong getting nervous with everyone staring at him.
He closed his eyes and placed his hand on the crystal.
"Wait, what?!" "Am I dreaming?" Ryuyong heard his Sensei and All the elder's shocking reaction. He then slowly opened his eyes and looked at the crystal.
"Black? Why is the crystal glowing black being there only four styles?" He looked at his sensei and asked.
"We always knew that you were special." Ryuyong did not understand why all the elders were praising him.
"Sensei, can you please tell me what black means."
"It means that you are compatible with all the styles, I never thought I will get to see a black crystal in my life," Satoshi told Ryuyong with a shocked expression.
"Ryuyong, since you are compatible with all the styles which one are you interested in?" Sensei asked him as he was capable of handling all the sword styles.
"I would like to learn everything, but first, I want to learn Thunder," Ryuyong answered.
"Good choice, if that's what you want to learn first then let's start your training. "
"Before we start, let me tell you It is not going to be easy since you are compatible with all the styles people will expect a lot from you, so you will have to work harder than anyone here, are you ready Ryuyong?"
"I'm ready, Sensei." Ryuyong confidently and boldly answered.
"That's good, this is not only for him but to everybody here from now on I'm going to make you guys work your butt off, so be prepared, is that clear?" With his loud voice, Satoshi sensei told everyone to be prepared to work hard.
"Yes, Sensei, we will work hard." Everyone in chorus.
