LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 56
|3rd POV|
Azazel leaves the mansion with a smile on his face.
"Why did you let them take her away?"
"Hmmm? Because it is her choice."
"You can force her to join us."
Azazel looks at Vali in surprise and says,
"Why are you this upset?"
Instead of Vali answering Azazel's question, a white gauntlet appears in Vali's hand, and they start to talk.
"It is because that woman has a high affinity with dragons."
Azazel looks at the gauntlet in surprise and says.
"What do you mean, Albion?"
"That woman has a high affinity for dragons. Any hatchling will love her, and even an adult dragon will fall in love with her."
"But that did not explain the reason why Vali liked this."
"It does. Think of it like this. Think of her as a treasure Vali wants, but instead of choosing him, he chooses the second dragon."
"Ah"
Azazel nods in understanding. He looks at Vali in pity and gets a glare from Vali. Unlike the canon timeline, where Asia already chooses Issei before she can meet Vali, this timeline is different. In this timeline, no dragon claims her yet, and when there is a chance of her choosing between Vali and Ryan, she chooses Ryan instead of him. It deals emotional damage to Vali, something he never felt before.
While Azazel talks about a high-class woman he can call for Vali, the young man thinks of a way to beat Ryan with his fist. Without him knowing, Ryan awakens something inside of Vali, the possessiveness of a dragon.
If Issei is his destined rival, Ryan will be the rival he declares.
Albion can only sigh when he hears what his partner is thinking. He liked Vali having a rival other than Ddraig's partner but did not want it to start like this. He has many partners who lose their lives because of this rivalry.
Rivalry born from jealousy will result in battle with a mind clouded with anger. This is another reason why many dragons were killed in the past when they challenged a strong bring to a fight when the dragon fancied something they had.
He still remembers a foolish dragon, a strong dragon, who dared to challenge the Dragon of Infinity, Ophis. The reason? That dragon wants to claim the Dimensional Gap as his home. He thought he could challenge that monster just because he had an affinity to Void, one of the most destructive elements.
Sadly for him, he died in the most humiliating way. Something that the entire dragon race tries to forget. He died because of a sneeze. Ophis releases a violent sneeze, resulting in this dragon's death.
Albion can only hope Vali did not lose his cool when fighting against Ryan. He loves fighting but hates losing. When his partner loses, that means he loses to someone.
"Azazel, train me more."
"I beg your pardon? You just get rejected, and your response is to train! What've I done?! How can my little boy become like this?! Me?! Azazel! He who slept with all races in this world had to have a son who did not like sex?! Father?! Why have you abandoned me?! Wait. I am the one abandoning him. Never mind. Father?! Is this your punishment?! Noooo!"
Vali can only sigh and punch Azazel in the face to stop his rant.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I open my eyes and am about to get up. However, I feel a heavy thing holding me back before getting up. I look to my right, and I can see Yasaka hugging me, and when I look to the left, I can see Asia hugging me.
Right. Yesterday was a holiday. Yasaka and I took Asia to explore the city. We visited a lot of restaurants and even theme parks. I mentally chuckle when I remember Asia's face when she gets on the ride.
I thought she would be afraid when we got on the roller coaster, but she only got scared for a few seconds before enjoying the ride. We got through all the rides in the theme park and ate a lot of food being sold there.
The day ends when the sun sets, and Asia has already spent almost all her energy playing. However, even when she looks like she is about to fall down, Asia has a bright smile that makes me glad to take her in.
She is a great and kind woman who does not deserve to die at the hands of a bunch of lunatics. I cannot allow that to happen, and I know that it is not my dragon side talking. It is my human side talking.
I shake my head and slowly escape from Yasaka and Asia without waking them. It takes a minute, but I manage to get away from them without waking them up.
I walk toward my bag, take some of the clean clothes, and walk to the bathroom on the first floor. I cleaned myself, put on some clothes, and got to the kitchen, where the servant was already cooking the food for me.
"Good morning, Sir Ryan."
"Good morning. What is for today's breakfast?"
"Lady Yasaka wanted something special for today's breakfast because of young lady Asia. Because of this, I decided to cook the complete set."
"Ah, I see."
A complete breakfast consists of rice, tamagoyaki, fish, a small platter of meat, pickled vegetables, miso soup, and either stir-fried or fresh vegetables. Of course, it is not a set rule, but a complete set Japanese breakfast is usually like that.
"Do you want to eat now or wait for the others, Sir Ryan?"
"I will wait for them."
While waiting for them to wake up, I can see the system appear in the corner of my vision. I mentally press the Y button and wait for the system to give me something. After waiting for a few seconds, I grunt a little when I feel my body heat up for a moment before it is gone.
I look at the system and read what I get. I did not know what kind of power I would get this time.
|Congratulations! You get [Chakra Seed]|
Chakra? Interesting. I did not know how much I would get but from the feel of it, it is not too much at the moment. I can feel the pathway around my body is not big but not small either. I don't know to whom I can compare it because I did not get anything other than the Chakra Seed in the middle of my stomach.
"Ryan?! When did you awaken your chakra?!"
