CH 78: Mystery Of the Mysterious Man.
"Rey, what I'm about to tell you may sound like a blunt or something you won't believe to be true. But please listen carefully, as it is deeply intertwined with you and the destiny that binds you without your knowledge. My child, you're not a member of our Dragonstorm family," Jasmine said, trying to muster the courage to convey this revelation.
"Huhh~~~~!" was the only word that escaped Rey's mouth after hearing her words.
"Wait, do my ears need repair, or did I hear correctly that I'm not a member of the family or your son? Is it like an-anymore, or am I re-really n...not your son?" he asked as his eyes grew watery from hearing such shocking and painful.
Who could hold on after finding out they're not the son of the mother they loved with all their heart? Even if you manage to live with them, would you have the courage to call her mom or your sister, sis, without thinking that they aren't?
"Huh, what are you saying right now? I didn't say you're not my kid."
"Then is my father....."
"No, not even that, you dumbo. How can say such a thing?"
"So, we aren't the real duke family, or we're using their surname as a facade to get some attention or something?"
"Not even that. Try harder to let your imagination run wild."
"Argh~~~! Then why are you even saying that we aren't the Dragonstorm family?"
"No, I didn't say that we aren't the Dragonstorm family."
"But didn't just say it?"
"Yes, I did, but both Emmy and I are members of the Dragonstorm family."
"Then isn't this basically fu.... no, means, I mean I am not your child"
"No, you're my child." She said with a straight face.
"THEN CAN YOU PLEASE TELL ME THE WHOLE TRUTH? MY BRAIN ISN'T STRONG ENOUGH TO COMPREHEND THIS PUZZLE OF WORDS. Hahhh... Hahhh."
He said as he tried to catch his breath after shouting.
"Hush~~~, listen. The story that changed the course of life on Blue Planet happened when the bloodthirsty king, who came to kill all the other kings, reached the place where they were. He found them, and he was pleased, but those who were found were utterly shocked and scared by his appearance. He was covered in blood, with blood flowing around him in orbs, looking like a blood god. What happened in that room was something no one expected. The king killed all the other kings, not as told in the story. The story ended just like that."
She paused to see his expression, which resembled someone going crazy or mad after hearing the truth.
"Huh, if that's true, then why are we still alive? If our ancestors weren't spared by him."
"That part also changed when that man appeared."
"Again, 'that man.' Who is he, and what is his name that you all aren't mentioning."
"Rey, I wish I could tell you, but we are not capable enough to even know his name, much less remember it."
"So, one knows it then."
"Yes, someone did. He is in seclusion and is living until now to see the successor of that man for some reason."
"Do you mean to say the Blood Emperor of that time told in rumors?"
"Yes, him. He is still alive and well. He is already more than five hundred years old but still looks like a teenager like you."
Rey didn't understand, but he did recall someone like him from some anime and manga.
"Okay, so what happened after that when the King killed all the other kings?"
"Yes, so what happened was that after emerging from his revenge-driven madness, the King realized his mistake but he did not feel guilty for killing the other kings, but his heart was filled with guilt for killing innocent people in his quest for more power.
Just as he was about to kill himself, about finish off the final person on the Blue Planet, something happened that stopped him. A man appeared in front of him, changing his entire perspective on life even before he could do or say anything. With just a flick of hand, man accomplished something that even the Emperor could not achieve in his lifetime or anyone in our world till the end of the world.
And the thing he did was...."
