Growing Up - Part 3

Moments later…

Within one of the many homes and residences scattered throughout the Kurama Clan's land, a boy was suddenly awoken from his slumber by a nightmare.

"Huh, *pant* just what is going on? Where am I?" asked Rin as he shot up and looked around himself, confused at the sight he saw before him as he only remembered being summoned somewhere before everything went dark.

Yet, as Rin began to calm down and rationalize within himself about what was going on someone knocked on his door.

"Rin, honey is everything alright?" Crystal asked concerned for her son's well-being as he has been suffering from a recurring nightmare for the past three nights.

"… I am all right, Mom just a bit startled is all," Rin replied as he got out of bed and walked to the bathroom to splash some cold water on his face.

"Okay, honey…" Crystal said with a sigh as she returned to her room and went back to sleep, before having to stop as she thought she heard someone scream out in pain.

'Hmm, I'm going to need some weed… if this going to keep happening.' Thought Crystal as she yawned while making the mental note to buy some the next time, she visited town.

"AARGH… so that's what happened," Rin muttered as he held his head after surviving the torment of someone stuffing your brain with ten years' worth of memories.

'Sigh… so in the end, she truly was not lying to me, huh? Yet, even after ten years I cannot help but wish I could have spent one more year in that hellish place.' Rin thought before entering the bathroom, causing the light to flash on as he got the shock of his life since during his time in the palace, he never really had the chance to stop and appreciate his hard work.

As he had to constantly complete one trial after another without pause like a lunatic, so it was just a bit surprising to see what he looked like after all these years.

Considering that he had a head full of healthy, long, and luscious silverish black hair, placid yet tired blue eyes, a lean but defined body, and a face that screamed prince charming. After all that baby fat Rin once had disappeared and was replaced by a defined jawline, narrow chin, rosy yet pink heavy-lower lip, and longer sword-like eyebrows.

"Damn, I look good!" exclaimed Rin before turning on the faucet and gathering some water into his hands. Before splashing it onto his face and grabbing a nearby towel so he could dry his face off.

A few minutes later…

After calming down and returning to his usually composed self, it was finally time for Rin to see how much he had grown in these last ten years.

'Hey, Rose can you bring up my current status please," asked Rin mentally as sat on his bed.

"Damn… hmm, I could've sworn I was stronger," muttered Rin in disbelief as if he were not just ten years old and most kids don't start cultivating until the ages of 5-10.

'Sigh, well I guess that just means I need to cultivate some more,' Rin thought as he smiled before saying thanks to Rose and going to bed.

[You're welcome, Rin, and goodnight!]

Meanwhile, in Multiverse Z: Sector 7 - Planet 9: (Pago) within one of the rooms of a floating palace, a teenager who just turned fifteen could be seen leaning on the balcony as she drank some hot chocolate. 

While gazing at the moon which mirrored her emotions at the moment, "Sigh… just why must it always be the future villains I fall in love with? Hopefully, the prophecy turns out to be fake as I would hate to be the one to have to kill you, Rin."
