Chapter-50: Old Generation[AN: Yay, it"s already 50 chapters, new milestone for me. Thanks for reading this novel.]
(Jin"s PoV)
I was facing one old man and one beautiful middle-aged woman.
"It"s been awhile Great Grandfather and Great Grandmother."
These two couples were my mother"s grandfather and grandmother.
"Been really a while, last time you came to see us four years ago."
My great grandfather complaint. His name is George Pendragon.
"Shut up! This child is now busy with his youth. Don"t bark. Come here sweetheart, let me see how big you become."
Saying that she hugged me. Like her daughter-in-law and granddaughter she also spoils her children. Her name is Jessia Tiger.
She was my paternal grandfather"s aunt. But let me clear you, she wasn"t from the current Red Tiger clan but Old Red Tiger clan. In past, my grandfather was part of the branch family. Later, after Old Red Tiger Clan"s demise, Red Tiger Divine Beast bestowed Its protection to the last survivors of his bloodline who were my grandfather"s family.
[AN: Mark this paragraph, It"s a major flag for the story.]
In other words, Jessia Tiger was the last member of Old Red Tiger Clan. But she became queen of Red Sun Nation, so she was taken as outside of the Red Tiger clan.
In different history, people theorize, Red Sun Nation"s Red part didn"t come from Pendragon"s burning fire which is equivalent to the sun but from the former mighty monster Red Tiger Clan, who used to rule over the world along with current silent White Tiger Clan. That is one of the reasons Viscount Lister or other faction didn"t want to let Red Tiger Clan to comeback in their former vigor.
Pendragons and Red Tigers have a long history of friendship, that"s why you can see there are many marriage bonds which will also include me in near future. By the way, have I ever mentioned that my deceased grandmother was my maternal grandfather Uther Pendragon"s sister?...
Oh well, let"s not dig over the past. What important is, the future.
"There is something, I want to request you."
I straightforwardly asked this two.
"And what is..."
Great grandfather wanted to ask me with making a cold atmosphere but my great grandmother smacked his old head.
"Stop that, will ya? Ask us anything you want, hun."
"It"s like that, I have gathered some kids to make them able to fight, you guys are one of the best hand to hand combat specialist in history. So, I am seeking your help regarding that."
I want to straight with them as much as possible. Their age is more than 400 years, roundabout or sweet talk won"t work on them.
"Ho, making your own army?"
George Pendragon narrowed his eyes, great grandmother didn"t interfere this time.
"You can say like that."
"Even though we left the worldly matter aside and living far from Royal Palace, we are aware of the current affairs of this country. I know that Tower of Eden, that my great grandfather founded along with other three people and where I was once Head (Sect Head) of is no more, I know that Northern Dragons vanished from the world. I also know that you are engaged with Sera, sooner or later you will have a portion of the army from Kingdom as the future king. That"s why I am asking you, why do you need an army right now? There is no need to rebellion, then, are you trying to revenge against them who destroy your beloved sect?"
As a former king, he instantly calculated the meaning of my action. Not only that, he already knew that Northern Dragons weren"t the one who destroyed the Tower of Eden, so he took my action as revenge against the real criminals behind the sect destruction. But I answered,
"For now, I don"t know what to do with this army. I just want to make this army strongest and make my name as an individual in this world."
I didn"t agree with but I also deny that I will take revenge. George Pendragon was silently watching me. After some moments he broke out into laughter.
"Ha, ha,hahahahahahaha, you have grown, you have the ambitions that all sovereign sought for. If it was out of revenge I would have spank you right here. But I am a.s.sured to hear your answer, well then, I, George Pendragon the 22nd King of Red Sun Nation shall accompany you, in your journey."
He declared his alliance with me.
"Thank you."
I thanked him softly. This time I looked at my great grandmother.
"Hmm... I wonder if I can do that, I have lived a long life. My heart is not the same as before, so I may not able to train little kids and hurt them."
She denied to accompany me. She used to be a teacher of the Royal Academy and she was afraid by students because of her training method. As she aged, her heart became softer, but she can"t change her training method, because she doesn"t want to teach kids a weak method where they might die in slight mistake. So in the end, she stopped teaching. By the way, the fun fact is she was the private teacher of George Pendragon, that means she is older than him by more than a decade. And by remembering those days, George Pendragon shook his head, maybe, out of fear I guess.
"Then how about seeing those kids, if they can handle your training or not."
She raised her brows after seeing a sudden change in my forehead.
"This?"
My great grandfather expression was more astonishing.
"What"s that third eye? Don"t tell me!!!!"
Yes, I showed them the Rinnesharingan, but it wasn"t crimson red instead of a light blue eye.
"Yes, as you can guess, I have awakened the True All-Seeing-Eye."
Both of them were dumbstruck. The True All-Seeing-Eye, in legend it was theorized as strongest of all eyes (strongest in every kind of doujutsu this world has, of course excluding Rinnesharingan) as well as the final form of All-Seeing-Eyes (True All-Seeing-Eye is a singular word). It will not appear in any of the two eyes, but the third eye will be formed in the skull.
And that is not wrong, because I have awakened Rinnesharingan, along with it the True All-Seeing-Eye awake, the reason of the late bloom because my All-Seeing-Eyes was the true eye in the first place, it never woke either of my eyes because it is not meant to be awake there.
My Rinnesharingan is what triggered the True All-Seeing-Eye.
"He..he... hehahahahahahahah, at last, our nation will be prospered. Hahahahahhaha."
Oh boy, he is going mad. I cannot blame him. After all, he is probably seeing the golden future for his nation.
"As, I thought you have the potential to become strongest in our nation, no, this world."
My great grandmother commented.
"I don"t know if I can become one, but I have the confidence to walk that far. However, that"s not important right now..."
I open a time-s.p.a.ce portal.
"What"s this?"
She asked while narrowing her eyes,
"One of my ability."
I shortly answered. They will know what it is anyway sometimes after that. Oh, by the way, my great grandfather still in trance state, he is already predicting future despite his All-Seeing-Eyes is not future telling related.
Few moment past, and from that portal three kids appeared.
Bonus Short Story:
Mr. Third Person: Here is a short story, Jessia Tiger was Royal Academy Teacher, and because Royal Academy was directly handled by Royal Family she was hired as George Pendragon"s private teacher. That particular time Young George falls for his beautiful and demeanor teacher Jessia Tiger, who was also his older brother fiancee. As most of the Royalty does, he meant to be admitted at the Royal Academy. But at that time, the relationship between teacher and student was forbidden, thinking about that, he insisted to admit into Tower of Eden which was the 2nd strongest academy after Royal Academy. After becoming the best student of the Tower of Eden he proposed to Jessia Tiger, but she told him if he can defeat his brother then she will accept him. Hearing that, he threw the challenge to his older brother who was vice chancellor of the Royal Academy (King is the chancellor). Well, it was given that his brother also falls for Jessia Tiger"s beauty and not to mention she was his fiancee, so he didn"t accept the challenge and ignore him. But King took the matter in hand, and make them battle because he thought it would be interesting. When he makes it news to everyone, other sects also become interested and requested to partic.i.p.ate, King thought it will be more interesting and approve them, that"s how National Tournament born. By the way, Jin was the winning captain of the 400 years anniversary which was the 133rd tournament (In calculation it should be 399 years, but the 133rd tournament was delayed one year to make it 400 years anniversary, for that reason, the 134th tournament will be held after two years after the 133rd tournament which is in this year, of course, Jin will miss that.) Oops, let"s get back on the track, Likewise, you can guess, George became the winner of the tournament and Royal Academy not only couldn"t become 2nd or 3rd they became 4th. As promised, Jessia Tiger accepted George and they got married, after a few years later he became 22nd King by defeating his older brother yet again. It is still unknown to George that, Jessia Tiger also fall for him when she was teaching him, and she was the one who made the friend of George to encourage him to admit into Tower of Eden, after that she told George to challenge his brother, and she knew his brother won"t accept it that"s why she convinced her clan (Old Red Tiger Clan) to talk about it with King, and to her surprise King showed interest in that. And everything got right for her, and they live happily ever after.
