37 Gone

Jax could be seen returning towards the forest he once trained in. His emotions and thoughts were racing, to be honest, it was quite a mess. He didn't know why but he felt that he had to leave the sins for a bit and get everything sorted out. When Eien told him to gain control over his Bankai he felt that he really needed to.

The place where he wanted to achieve this was back with his master. But when Jax arrived at the wooden cottage that he lived in for 10 years, it was empty. Nothing Luciv was nowhere in sight. The only thing that was there was a letter with a golden ring on it. Jax walked up to the letter and picked it up it was a regular letter, but for some reason, it felt so heavy to him. A minute later the letter suddenly got wet, and it continued to get wetter.

The reason for this was what contents were in the letter. What stood there made Jax cry not just some lonely tear no he was full on crying. Jax decided to re-read the message just to be sure of its contents,

"Jax when you find this that would mean you have returned. I'm glad that you didn't forget about me haha. But when you see this, it would also mean I'm no longer in this world. Don't worry i didn't die just yet well, to be honest, it probably won't take too long. I saw you grow up I saw you develop in the young man you are today and to be honest, it makes me proud. I don't have too long left in this old injured body of mine, so after raising you, I came to a conclusion. I want to die without regrets just like you.

I'm going after the man that killed my mother I could have done so for a long time but what strength does that man posses now? I don't even know myself. I just wanted to have someone inherit my techniques and then leave. But I'll be honest I got so much more than that i didn't just get a simple disciple.

No, I got a boy that I think of like my grandson. Jax the ring before you is something I made it is simple, and the only use it has is that I can feel your life force and if you are in danger. I will promise you no matter what world im in as soon as I feel you being in danger I will come and save you. I hope you live a life worth living may you find that which you seek my dear disciple. I hope to once see you again."

Silence was in the wooden cottage not even the animals outside made any noise. The only sound that was there was that of someone putting down a letter. Tears in his eyes Jax grabbed the ring his hands shaking. He slid the ring onto his finger, and surprisingly it fit perfectly. 'he made this custom for me' Jax thought while smiling.

After that Jax walked out of the wooden cottage. When he was outside, he looked in the distant sky while he screamed. "THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING" hoping that his master would hear his words.

- In a world unknown to the normal humans –

An old man could be seen smiling he turned his head while he whispered, "be safe" when the old man turned his head again he saw the back of a dragons head. "Let's go" was all the old man said before the Dragon rose up and started flying, "yes Luciv-sama."

- In the devastated ruins of the Vaizel fighting festival –

A group of people could be seen a blonde haired guy was looking around him. "Where is he," Meliodas asked he had just gone berserk, and his sword was just taken, and now his son was gone. A girl turned towards Meliodas, "he left" Elizabeth told the group and started to recount the events that had taken place. Meliodas looked rather calm at everything, and so did the rest of the group.

Elizabeth suddenly talked, "maybe it's for the b" before she could finish her sentence Meliodas silenced her. "Don't go there" he said in a rather angry voice. Even if he loved Elizabeth for thousands of years, she still shouldn't cross the line of insulting his son. He loved her but if he had to choose it would be Jax after all he was like his own son.

The phrase, "the love for your child is unconditional" was true in Meliodas case. It didn't matter to him if he had killed Veronica and Griammore at the moment all he cared about was his son's safety. He tried to sense where he was, but he couldn't even detect a thing of him. "please be safe" was all he said before he turned around and walked with the group. It was time to fix the situation in Lionnes 'they can be revived soon' was all Meliodas could say.

In the forest, Jax could be seen sitting on a tree while he grabbed Eien from his back and called Rose. "Its time for you two to get stronger. Eien I will achieve your Bankai and Rose we will try to evolve you" he said while patting the birds head.

Jax jumped down from the tree and started to run,

"let us explore what this world has to offer."
