Chapter 11

Mousa's OVERVIEW

At sunset, Mousa is walking with Kiran along a white path with lots of grass on each side.

Mousa: "So, my little Kiran, from today you will live in the main students' building."

Kiran stops walking with a surprised face and teary eyes, "Why? Are you angry with me because I fought with Yuki?" He starts to cry.

Mousa, trying to calm him down: "That's not it. Listen to me first."

After a while, Kiran finally calms down.

Mousa: "So what I was saying is that you will live with the main students to prove to everyone that you are the strongest hero."

Flashback...

While Baran and Mousa are drinking tea...

The sound of someone drinking tea. Baran: "What do you think about having him live with the main students of the sect?"

Mousa: "Why?! What are you thinking?"

Baran: "I want him to be a strong support for my daughter in the struggle for the clan leader position. A talent like his should not be wasted."

Mousa, stroking his beard, then smiling foolishly: "Kiran X Yuki, I like the sound of that."

Baran, angrily: "Haaaaa! Who said anything about marriage? If anyone approaches my daughter, I'll skin them alive."

Mousa: "Hohohohohohohoho!"

Then Mousa, with some seriousness: "Don't worry, a child like him with a free spirit won't agree to be confined in one place."

End of flashback...

Kiran, imagining himself as the strongest hero, then says excitedly: "That sounds amazing."

Mousa: "In the morning, you'll find Yuki waiting at the door of the building you'll be living in. Then, you'll come to me every day after your lessons for training, okay?!"

Kiran: "Okay."

After a while, they stand in front of a six-story house with many glass windows, following the same design as a pagoda tower.

Kiran looks at the building, and the stars in his eyes start to move and change color, creating a beautiful artistic scene.

Mousa, speaking to himself excitedly: "His eyes must have discovered something new. Come on, surprise me."

Mousa, speaking to Kiran: "Did you discover anything in the building?"

Kiran: "Nothing at all. Nyaaaaaahahahahaha!"

Mousa falls from the shock.

Kiran says: "I'm just excited."

Mousa: "Ahem, ahem, okay, go in and meet your roommates."

Kiran takes a few steps forward, then runs back to hug Mousa. Mousa sits down and hugs him back.

Mousa, in a soft voice: "Take care of yourself, Kiran. It's not like we won't see each other every day."

Kiran: "Yes, thank you for everything."

Mousa extends his hand forward, forming a sword proportional to Kiran's height with a single black blade and a handle mixed with red and black.

Mousa: "This sword is called Star of Fate. It adapts in size to its user. You'll use it from today until you fulfill our agreement."

Kiran, with stars and shapes moving wildly in his eyes: "A real sword!" He holds it, spreading his Qi around the sword, enveloping it in Kiran's impressive aura, then swings it a few times.

Kiran, looking at the blade: "Beautiful!"

Mousa: "I'm glad you like it." He gently pushes Kiran. "Go on, go."

Kiran, hugging the sword: "Okay."

Mousa: "Remember to assert your dominance and show them who the strong one is, but don't kill them." Then he gives Kiran a key and the room number. "Go on, go."

Kiran: "Okay."

3rd POV

In the dormitory...

The door opens, and some young men sitting in the entrance look at the newcomer, surprised to see a small child with strange eyes and hair hugging a sword.

One of the boys, with white hair and slightly muscular build, appearing to be 16, approaches Kiran.

The boy, concerned: "What are you doing here, little one? Are you lost?"

Kiran: "No, my teacher told me I should live here from today." He walks past the boy in front of him.

The boys in the back laugh, causing a vein to bulge on the boy's forehead as he reaches out to grab Kiran's shoulder.

The boy: "Kids these days have no respect."

Kiran turns to look him in the eye, causing the boy to step back a few steps.

The boys fall silent, watching their friend whose hands are shaking and sweating in surprise.

Kiran ignores them and walks to his room.

Alexander Overview

Alexander, talking to himself in shock: "Am... Am I afraid?"

He hears a noisy sound from the side but ignores it until one of his friends shakes him.

Ranja: "Alexander, what happened, man?"

Alexander stays silent for a while, then says: "I saw my death in his eyes. I'm sure if I had moved, I would have been killed by that child."

Samara, worried: "What exactly did you see?"

Alexander: "I saw myself staring into the abyss, and it stared back at me. Then I saw a glimpse of myself being cut into small pieces by that child."
