Chapter 2 - I am back!!

As the light flashed Ryu opened his eyes to see that he was setting in his old room

At first he didn't recognize the place but as he began recalling the memories of the past he rushed out of the room to see his parents.

This was one of his life long regrets that was haunting him…

due to the schemes of his fiancée at that time and her affair partner he lost his family by a strange accident at that time he was certain of the culprit but the system of judgement failed him, and was unable capture the idiotic couple.

-calling them idiotic is an insult to the idiots of the world they were beyond stupidity itselft… Ryu murmured

-I mean they even contacted the killer with their phones and even gave him their identites just because he said that was how the business worked…

-and just because they bribed the judge and some witnesses they left unscathed…

Well I had my fun while taking my revenge on them after, but that's not important for now.

As he entered the living room he saw three figures that had long become hazy in his memories, his parents and little sister.

He held his tears back and just sat at the dining table and listened to them talking.

- so how was your first day at school did you have fun with your friends?- his dad said

- yes!, I did make a new friend she was very cute and we talked alot during the day- the sister said

As they continued their small talks he just sat there listening to them with enthusiasm.

As his mother sat down she glanced at him startled as if she hasn't noticed him

-when did you get here I didn't hear you coming down, are you ok? you look like you have a lot on your mind.

Was it her motherly instinct or something else he didnt care but it touched his wounded heart deeply

-he stared at her for a long time before saying: sorry I just had a bad nightmare don't worry about it everything is fine

~I will make it to be fine, you won't have to be worried about nothing anymore…he thought

She glanced at him as if he was an open book and knew he wasn't going to say what's bothering him so to lighten up his mood she said: we haven't seen Meinu for a while how are things going between you two

As he heard the name his expression darkened for a slight moment

-we broke up please dont talk about her anymore…

As if he had dropped a bombshell on them everyone stared at him and said

What, why?

His answer shocked them just two days ago he was talking about his plans to marry her and building his life

Then his father said:

Did something happen with her?…you always keep things to yourself and never ask us for any help but if I find your answer unsatisfactory you will be punished..

Ryu understood his father's concerns and anger, the so called fiancée her family was the lifelong friends of his parent since school days thats how they were betrothed actually.

- I will tell you the reason but not now as its not appropriate..Ryu said as he glanced at his sister

His father understood his meaning and said come to my office after we had our dinner

After a while he entered his room exhausted, then he sat on his bed

-I haven't been stressed out like that even when I was fighting the heavenly demon… he muttered

I just told them some of the truth mixed with lies, its hard for them to accept that she was having an affair with some dimwit from a rich family, they watched us both grow up together,

I know my father the best, he will try to figure out if what I had just said was the truth on his own accord

-anyway, my plan really worked!, I had nearly forgotten the warmth of my family , but I dont have much time to waste,I need to start cultivating to ensure no problems will happen from now on

The earth that he knew was just a forgotten secret world in the northern plains, the concept of cultivation was nearly forgotten among the common people of the world, only in some old families with rich history you might find someone in the elementary realm

As the night fell he sneaked from his room toward the forest that was on the border of the city,

that place had special meaning to him as it was there where he first discovered the path to cultivation, after losing his parents and failing to bring justice to them, he wandered aimlessly in the forest to collect his thoughts , and as if it was some kind of twisted fate his steps led him to a cave where he found a grave with an old journal and some stones on top of it thats when his life changed its course.

- I don't really need the journal to cultivate, it's too outdated for my standards but the stones is a most to open my meridians, that was my reason for coming here.

As he sat down in the cave he started absorbing the stones one by another until the sun has risen.

The area around the cave has become surrounded by a dense fog that you couldn't see your hands because of it

As he straightened his back and cracked his knuckles he said:

- sixth stage elementary qi not bad, it's enough to deal with them for now. He has completely absorbed the stones and ant qi that he could collect from the forest around him that, which caused the area to be foggy

Cultivation had many stages but on earth with the thin qi it had, it was impossible to reach anything higher than the elementary realm

-now that I have opened my qi channels and can sense the area around me, Iam certain now that its not an illusion,

I am really back !!

Time to settle the scores once again..
