Sora: Don't overeat because we won't wait for you once we leave. Deshon: I won't, man, Sora, if you don't want to be a mage, you should be a full-time chef; since you don't have a goal in life. Sora: I do have a goal to watch Sophia become the goddess of all magic. Deshon: I mean a personal dream in life like becoming the strongest or whatever. What happens if Sophia obtains this dream? What's next for you? You need to think about yourself every once in a while, at least. Sora: I guess I want to become a great parent.
Deshon: That's an honorable dream, but how about something else. Sora: I think I want to be a master; I want to train people that have potential. Deshon: That sounds like a good goal in life. But always keep thinking about your dreams, but never settle for one goal in life. Sora: What's your dream? Deshon: I want to join the World Mage Association and become an A-Class Mage; also make my siblings respect me. Sora: I didn't know you had siblings. Are you the youngest or oldest?
Deshon: I'm the third oldest of five. I have an older sister and an older brother; I have a younger brother and sister. Sora: Where are they, and what they do; also, what are their names? Deshon: Well, they don't claim me and also don't want any association with me. Sora: Go ahead and tell me; I'm technically a royal, so this an order. Deshon: Alright, I will go in order.
My elder sister's name is Nia Worthington; she's an S-Class mage ranked seventh in the WMA. Also got recruited by Maina; she's a part of Maina's Angels. Sora: What's that? Deshon: That's the strongest or one of the strongest squads she has under her belt. Sora: How old is Nia, by the way? Deshon: She is twenty-two years old; my older brother Andre Worthington; he's an S-Class mage ranked fifteenth. He also was recruited by Maina; he's a part of Maina's Knights; he is only twenty. Sora: I didn't think you have people in your family on that level!
Deshon: Yeah, when you look at me, you wouldn't ever think that. Anyway, my younger brother Ace also goes to this school. He's a part of Maina's Knights like my brother Andre, and he's an S-Class mage ranked seventeenth; he is only fourteen years old. Sora: He's my age!? Deshon: Yeah, I'm only fifteen. It's funny he used to look up to me; now he hates me the most. Sora: Damn, that's tough! It can't get worse than this?! Deshon: Well, it kinda does. My younger sister Mia is only thirteen years old. But she is already part of Maina's Angel and the WMA and attends this school. She is an S-Class mage ranked tenth due to her achievements by defeating the criminal mage organizations; Kamui's second in command; killing most of the Sharks chain of command, and killed the Snakes' boss, and just recently killed the Celestial Dragons' boss. And a recommendation from Maina to rank her that high.
Sora: Shit! How are they that damn strong? While you're some D-ranked caliber mage! Deshon: Fuck you! And forgot one crucial detail about them; all of them are a part of The Crimson Leones Mafia Club. Well for Nia and Andre were a part of it. Sora: I know Worthingtons are a royal family, but your last name is Flowers. While your brothers and sisters have different last names? Are you some secret love child or something? Like do you guys share the same parents? Deshon: Yes, we share the same parents! Flowers was a branch family of the Worthingtons; until we got removed due to being on different sides during the last royal mage war nineteen years ago.

Nia came up with the idea; if we make a name for ourselves, we can join the Worthingtons. When she was at Rowan Academy, she met up with the family's head and struck a deal. If you make a name for yourself, then you gain the Worthington last name. If every single sibling makes a name for themselves, the entire Flower branch gets reinstated back with the family.
Sora: Why don't they claim you? It has to be a more significant reason than being weak. Deshon: They can't claim me because of their last names. The Worthingtons can't be associated with the weak folk. Once you gain the last name, you get to claim each other. I'm also forbidden to tell anyone that I'm related to them. Sora: So the main reason they hate you because you haven't made a name for yourself. And the rest of the Flower family can't rejoin until you do something. They can't even acknowledge our parents.
But if we're alone, then we secretly talk to each other. I shouldn't have joined the Twilight Tigers; I wished I joined the Crimson Leones Mafia Club; my brother Andre recruited me, but I thought Twilight Tigers were about to win the championship that year. I was almost right, but we lost to the CLMC (Crimson Leones Mafia Club) in the finals. I didn't even take it seriously until the finals because everyone has to play; I did the bare minimum at everything; I even told everyone I won't participate in the regular season and I will only play in the finals. So the spotlight was on me.
Ryder beat me like a damn slave in every game in the finals. I was the laughing stock by everyone, and Ryder made sure of it. He even made merch of him stepping on me with one foot. My beat-up face was on everywhere. You name it, they did it. They had my face on cereals, made an anime and a live-action movie. Ryder made sure that my life was a living hell! I want to beat the shit out of that bastard Ryder! Sora: Our parents were married, so he's not a bastard. You'd got your ass whopped, and it's okay man; you've learned your lesson the hard way. Deshon: I told him that I will fuck up his face next time.
Sora: Well, you can leave that one up to me. It's no way that you could do that, not even in your wildest dreams! You're not even powerful, not even a little bit, but you can improve; that's the great thing when it comes to practice. Deshon: Maybe I'm a late bloomer. Give me some time, I can improve rapidly. Sora: You can be strong, and you could lose to someone less powerful. Hard work can't outdo talent; that's something out of your control.
But if you do the hard work; and grow more powerful due to you being a late bloomer, the possibilities are in your favor. Deshon: What happens if I want to be the god of mages? Sora: Being the god of mages isn't a simple task. You have to be lucky, talented, very strong, also brilliant. Let me be frank, you only possess one of the things I listed. And that's being brilliant, but you barely have that. If I was you, I would go for being a B-Class mage ranked two. If you can't even surpass Justin, then just go for the goal I mentioned. Deshon: You don't know how strong your brother is! Sora: But I actually do; I felt it. I can tell if someone strong or weak, their presence alone was enough to gain my respect. And Sophia showed me some of the highlights this morning, and he's great as I imagined.
Sophia came out of our room and look very annoyed. Deshon and I turned around quickly to see her on the guard rail upstairs.
Sophia: Sky!!! If you don't, get your ass up here and get dressed before I strangle you!!! Sora: My goodness, someone is cranky this morning! I started chuckling as I went upstairs. Sophia: What's so funny!? Sora: It's clear that you want me to do your hair. I'm just saying that you could be more direct than relying on me to know what's on your mind. Sophia: Just get your ass in here! Sora: I knew it! I had a feeling when you looked in the mirror earlier, you had this dumbfounded look on your face. She started to kick me on the back until I stepped into the room. Once we got into the room, we head to the balcony that has a chair. I started to do her hair and getting her clothes set up.
