TIMESKIP (~ 1 MONTH)
The ship was moving slowly over a wide ocean surrounded by salt waters with a speed of about 8-12 knots. It is already night while the white moon seems smiling at me. The silence in the night other the sound of the wave makes our covered with the breeze.
A young man can be seen looking towards the horizon with eyes that seem to be looking for some answers in the deck. The young man was standing near guardrails and one can see the moonlight reflected in the ocean hitting his pale white face. The young man Victor Black. He travelling towards America with William for establishing a branch of Trident. Victor wanted some difference in his life, so decided to travel through the ocean which he hasn't experienced in his lives.
Victor (POV)
I lost all the forces and influences in the galaxy because I lost my way in power and killing. I had a goal to live a life of simplicity and joy when I arrived here. But I started war for my own greed for power. If anyone said that the previous life was good, I would agree. Because atleast I never was a person who killed others for his own benefits. I know in this world only strong can live, but I became a person who got arrogant with his growing power. Maybe I am not worthy of this power, that why the blood of millions of innocent lives died in my hands. I started SFC for growing power and influence for myself, but not for others. One who should have given protection to the civilization ended up giving quest for killing and war. What I am God, no first I am a human in the heart. Blood debts of all the innocents will be paid by me one day. I don't believe eternal life one day death will come for me. I think I should have helped the week but I used the reason of helping weak to kill million innocent lives. Every time, I see death I make unable to even sleep. The only thing I see in my sleep is the cry of family's members and their hatred towards me. Why I become like am I worthy of this power. Like God said I crossed my goal long ago but I still created the new goal. I should have controlled my desires, am becoming another evil god. No, I can't be like this I still have a galaxy to safeguard. No, I will kill them, I never can protect them. While I heard a sound.
"Why are you looking like you lost something?" William asked.
"No nothing I am thinking about the last 1500 years of the life of war and blood," I said. It pains me that I lost my way. William replied "No you haven't, you still know your way is wrong is proof that you haven't. You may have lost because you took responsibility for something you shouldn't have. You wanted to protect them, but fear through the power is the only thing that can control in the corrupted world."
"You should have continued your life. When you lived in Meng, you always said you never cared about others. But you are responsible for the happiness of those people." "You never were merciless. Leaving you alone was my mistake; I promised your mother to take care of you. But I neglected you and it made you lost the way in power. As a guardian, I am responsible for your decisions. I should have been with you when you have grown in power to guide." "Not everyone lived their life without losing their way in their life. But understanding what have you done wrong in your way shows that you have another chance to change your way of life. You can take any decisions; good or bad I will support it. But never regret the decisions you have taken. Regrets are not good for us, who has a long life. Just forgot and try to face the new day with a smile." With that, William went back to his cabin.
When William went away, Victor who never cried for anything other than Meng Yi's death can be seen with tears flowing from his eyes. After an hour Victor returned to his cabin to have good sleep.
But he never noticed that aura and divinity started to change within him as new life has born from the dead tree.
*Next day – Morning *Victor woke up with a smile leaving all of the regrets in the past. When he went out of the room, he saw women in her twenties coming out of the cabin opposite his with her sister.
Women who saw Victor started blushing but trying to hide it.
Not caring about her he moved to the deck of the ship to experience the morning breeze.
Women can only hide their embracement and moved in the direction Victor went. Victor came to deck saw William there speaking with the ship captain. He said "Good morning" and Victor also replied "Good morning" with a smile of pure innocence that can mesmerize anyone. The ship they are travelling was actually part of Williams Ocean transport company.
Victor saw the women who greeted him earlier with her family, realizing they should be travelling back to America. The father of the women is Charles and he was introducing himself and his family members to Williams. While knowing what is going to happen Victor slowly moved toward William. As predicted William called him to introduce him to them.
William said introduced me to Charles "I would like to introduce my son - Victor Black". Victor also introduced himself in good etiquette way. Charles introduced himself as Charles Bronson. His wife-Mary, his elder daughter Rose Bronson and the younger one in Anna Bronson.
William started talking with Charles about his family and his relationship with Victor. Victor was standing beside silently William all the time without a sound. From what they spoke the Charles and his family lives in America. Charles runs the textile factory in America. They came to Meng as a part of his business trip to Meng, while he took his family with him. They are now returning to America. It seems they saw a William who seemed to form a western noble family speaking to captain in the local language. So, he came to meet Williams to establish a relationship with him.
William introduced Meng Tian to Charles and his family as his good friend for years. The conversation got good and still going for half an hour. Without patients, I took my leave after waiting for some time. Seeing this William introduced me as a child who speaks less to others. Charles forgive me with a smile and continued his conversation with William. While his family also took the leave not disturbing their conversation.
