Just as they parted ways, Rey received a message on his phone.
He took it out of his pocket to see who it was it was from his mom. In the message, something was written that began to change Rey's expression little by little as he started to run ahead like crazy.
The message was, "Rey, come home quickly. Something big happened right now", which made his mind go blank.
His mind wasn't working properly anymore as he didn't even consider any other possibilities. He just started to dash toward home to see what had happened.
'No, that shouldn't happen, right? Yes, it, right? If it did, then maybe by dying I can come back to save them just in like Aiden world,' his mind kept repeating.
His speed was increasing beyond its normal limits. His skill [Dash] was constantly used as soon as the cooldown ended.
Even before five minutes had, he was already in front of his house, his whole face red. Like a true madman, he no longer looked gentle as even his clothes were disheveled from the high speed of the air. His hair was messy as if it hadn't been washed for a few weeks.
With steps, entered the house and shouted, "Mom, Emmy, where are you both?" But no one replied, which made him more confused, and his heart was getting full of fear.
With shaking legs, he began to approach the kitchen, noticing that it was the only area where lights were off while others were working well and were all on.
Rey, with shaky legs, approached the kitchen, praying that what he feared would not happen, as he did not know what he would do if it did.
With deep breaths, he turned on the light switch. As everything came into view, he was so shocked that he covered his eyes with his hand, from which water was pouring down.
Perhaps the reason his eyes were watering was due to his insane speed just moments ago. Why would he be crying now?
The scene that caused his reaction was a large cake with candles on it, placed on the table where they always ate their meals. Various types of handmade decorations made from colored paper adorned the room.
Many balloons were set up in various places with a big 'HAPPY BIRTHDAY REY' sign.
Before he could do or say anything, he heard footsteps from behind.
He quickly looked back ready to bring out Zero to attack but saw his mom and sister coming with two popping sticks.
"Huh, brother, why are you here so quickly? Weren't you outside?" Emmy asked, surprised to see him there.
"Oh, I was just beside the house, so I came home quickly to see what happened, but this surprise is much better than a normal one."
"But son you look like you run a marathon just now to come home." Jasmine asked as she saw his state in which his whole clothes were messy while he was sweating also very much.
"Ah~~!! You ruined it all, brother." She said, stomping her foot, as Jasmine and Rey laughed a little at her minor anger. While Rey who was already getting crazy started to cool down a little.
"Okay-okay, don't be angry. I'll come back again, and then you can surprise me," Rey said as he started to head back with his paining leg, but she stopped him.

"Stop, brother. I not such a small kid to be happy by your fake surprised expression, so just leave it like that," she said as Rey watched her walk towards the table with a slightly sad face.
"Sorry," he said again, as Jasmine nodded and signaled him to come and cut the cake.
Without saying anything, he moved closer to the table and saw Emmy lighting the candles him to blow out.
After the preparations were done, Rey saw both of them ready to pop the sticks, and he blew out the candles and started to cut the cake.
A few minutes later, after all the cutting and eating were done, he remembered something went outside to bring the sweets he had bought for them to try from his inventory.
"Here, try this snack that I got from a store today. It is quite good, and I like it very much and thought you might like it too," he said as he handed them the box. They opened it and looked at twelve pieces of round white and yellowish sweets, possibly called KZC, which might be the company name.
As they both tasted it, Emmy's eyes sparkled as she took the box from his hand and started to eat them by herself, causing Rey to laugh a little.
While Rey and Emmy were fighting over the snack, Jasmine, who had been smiling, stopped smiling and looked both of her kids with a complicated expression.
'Now is the right time to give him that, but does it really have to be done, should I just let him remain unaware and live a normal life? Oh God, please don't let my son get involved in those higher society games,' she thought as she made up her mind and said,
"Listen, Rey. I wish to talk and give you something, so before going to bed, come and meet me as it is very important," she said ready to let his son face the destiny that man designed for him. Rey and Emmy, who were quarreling like small kids, just nodded. After that, she started to prepare food for dinner while both of went to watch TV.
On TV a match from a few martial universities was being shown. Both martial warriors were-Apprentice rank warriors of the physical.
The match had started a few minutes ago, and clash was still raging on both weapons clashed with each other. One was a sword user, while the other was a pole arm user wielding a wide, long-range pole stick with a curved blade tip spear-like weapon that Rey couldn't know name about.
Rey was concentrating on how the experienced fighters fought. The sword user's fighting style was refined but not enough to be called sword master. The pole arm user had some advantages, such as a big attack range and distance to avoid getting caught in the attack style his opponent.
The match was greatly tilted toward the pole user, but the outcome with single mistake changed. The pole arm user missed one attack, giving the sword user a chance, which he takes quite handily. He destroyed his opponent in a few seconds after taking some damage.
"It was a good match," Rey said as he looked at the time and found that they didn't even notice that over an hour had passed while they were watching. Emmy, who was also beside him, stood up to drink some water after watching TV continuously.
Rey decided to watch the news to see was happening in the five kingdoms and the empire.
The Blue Planet was a very large planet containing five kingdoms, were also ruled by an empire called the
The kingdom was ruled by six kings, each of whom had either reached or was about to reach the peak the Disciple rank. It was never certain who win the war until a secret was revealed: the sixth king of the Neptarion kingdom was entered the seclusion to try and breakthrough to the next realm. This caused quite a stir, as all forces decided to stop him before he could flourish and devour them. Consequently, five kingdoms joined forces to an attack on Neptarion. Their plan was full proof and on the verge of success, as the combined armies of the five kingdoms had reached the capital city.
But they were a few minutes late, as the king already attained the realm of Master, putting him beyond their reach.
What followed was etched history as the Bloody Day, an event that initiated the era of peace they enjoy today, but at a significant cost as what happened today was something much horrible which showed them the true power of a Disciple rank martial artist.
As the thing happened was.....
