CHAPTER - 8
Mother: (Sad) Exactly, Gabriel can't use any of this, and for him, the academy has been hell until now...
Narrator: Gabriel was listening to all this with anger and tears.
Dav: (Boasting) And here I was, thinking it was something big.
Did you forget who you're standing in front of? The number one loser without powers, at least in the past [;-;]
Father: (Thinking out loud) Now that I think about it, that's true!! You had no powers, mana, or aura!
How did you do it?
Dav: It's a long story, so I'll just tell you a small part of how.
- 10 minutes later -
Father: (Pale-faced) That was so horrifying to hear that you almost made your mother faint...
Dav: Gabriel, come here.
Narrator: Gabriel approached... Discouraged, sad, and without any more hope in his eyes, he looked his brother in the face.
Dav: (Looking at Gabriel with blood-red eyes) Do you want to become strong?
Gabriel: (Without a second thought) Yes!.
Dav: It will be a little painful, so come closer.
Narrator: That night, Dav used mana conversion and transferred part of his mana to Gabriel.
Dav 10% > 0% | Gabriel 0% > 10%
It was a somewhat painful process, but it was worth it.
Dav also made sure Martina and Marco went through the same process, ensuring that none of them had any problems with their aura and mana.
He gave a small portion of his strength and power to his nephews so they could become strong and defend this world one day.
Conversion:
2% > 0%
0% > 2%
Dav asked Gabriel to try to focus, feel the mana within him, and use his aura by concentrating.
Gabriel succeeded without any problems, and Dav saw with his own eyes his nephews’ auras turning golden yellow.
The family was astonished and left speechless.
Dav: (Demonic face) After summer vacation, we'll retest your evaluations.
For now, we'll train together for these two months [kekeke]
Narrator: Everyone was terrified hearing this… seeing the classic monstrous, smiling face that Dav had at that moment.
Unauthorized duplication: this tale has been taken without consent. Report sightings.
Mother: (Cheerfully) Don’t die, Gabriel ??
André: (Laughing hysterically) AHAHAH, Martina, the same goes for you!
Cris: (Waving as if it were the last time) Marco, remember that your uncle is a monster. Good luck.
Narrator: The kids were speechless and terrified… but full of energy and ready to train!
- A few hours later in the attic -
Dav: (Thinking sadly) It's been so long...
I trained here every day from when I was 8 years old until that day...
Mother: (Carrying many blankets and pillows) I brought you some clean blankets. You know, no one touched your bed for the past 10 years, so it gathered dust...
Dav: (Hugging his mother with tears) I missed you, Mom. You were my only thought throughout the raid.
Narrator: His mother hugged her son with tears in her eyes and told him that everything was okay now.
If another problem arose, her hero Dav would protect her once again.
Lying in bed, staring at the ceiling, Dav wondered if all of this was really over.
The raid
He needed more information.
Dav (Thinking) before leaving mom said to contact Matteo.
He should tell me more since he's a guild leader in Milan for business.
After training all my nephews and my brother, I'll make sure to meet him.
Narrator: Matteo wasn’t just his cousin but also his best friend since childhood.
So he was speechless when he heard that he had become a guild leader.
- The next day -
Dav: (Kicking them out of bed) Weaklings, it's training time, wake up!
Marco: (Half-asleep) Uncle, but it's 5 in the morning...
Dav: (Irritated) I know what time it is, you little shit!
Move your ass and get ready, or I'll show you a hellish training session on the first day.
Narrator: He said it with a murderous intent in his voice...
Dav: Oh, Gabriel, you're already up! That's my brother!
Go wake up the sleeping princess and get something to eat.
I'm going to pack your bags for the next two months.
Gabriel: We'll be away for that long, brother?
Marco: (Sad) I won’t see my family for two months...
Dav: (Throwing a slipper from a distance) Crybaby, hurry up and eat!
Dav: (Thinking) Bags and luggage are packed. It should be enough for exactly two months.
I'll take them to the deserted islands of the Pacific.
We shouldn't have any problems with fruit and fish.
It should be uninhabited, so training won't be an issue.
The Tetepare Islands will be perfect.
(Shouting) Are you ready, brats? We’re leaving!
Marco: (Tearing up) Without saying goodbye to our family?..
Dav: (Laughing) Exactly! Let’s go.
Narrator: Dav created a barrier, one of his abilities, and trapped his nephews and brother inside to carry them through the air.
He arrived there in 4 hours.
Dav: It’ll be a long flight, but with my speed, it won’t take more than 3-4 hours.
- Arriving at Tetepare Island 4 hours later -
Martina: (Eyes wide, staring) What a beautiful island!! I want to take a swim right away!
Marco: (Smiling, shouting) WoW, I can sleep here under a beautiful sky while eating fish!
Gabriel: (Imagining) I’ll get a perfect tan! The girls at the academy will love me!
Narrator: They suddenly felt their uncle/brother's killing intent as he looked at them with weapons drawn and a wild smile on his face.
They froze...
Dav: (Demonic gaze) If you don’t want to starve, I suggest you pick up these weapons and start training, you brats!
So…
B E G I N.
Narrator: They trained day and night non-stop...
Exhausted and drained, they didn’t allow themselves to stop unless their uncle/brother told them to.
There were also duels between them, such as swordsmanship and magic battles.
Dav: (Thinking) They're really giving it their all.
Should I make them do another thousand push-ups?
(Shouting): Hey guys, another thousand push-ups!!
Don’t even think about running away, because you can’t! MUAHAHAHA.
Marco: (Resigned) Mom, Dad, I’m going to die here... Thanks for being with me...
Martina: (Shouting) Stop whining! Everyone is suffering here!
Dav: (Thinking) Gabriel is doing great! He finished a thousand push-ups in 30 minutes and immediately started practicing sword strikes.
Dav: Gabriel, do it at least 50,000 times this month and don’t stop!
Martina, focus on activating spell circles the whole month.
Marco, concentrate and release lightning continuously without killing anyone.
(Thinking) It’ll be a long two months.
- One month later -
Gabriel: (Thinking) I can’t feel my hands anymore...
How many strikes have I done? Ah, right...
49,899 thrusts.
(Finally happy) I FINALLY FINISHED!!
I wonder how the others are doing...
Narrator: A huge earthquake shook the ground as Gabriel landed his final strike, splitting the tree in two.
Dav: (Excited) Soon, we’ll have our fight.
With that ever-present smile on his face...
(Shouting) YOU HAVE 3 DAYS TO REST AND EAT PROPERLY!
Soon, it’ll be our duel.
Me against all of you.
