Nikolas Lightion started to walk towards his house. His family owns a big mansion with a few buildings and a large terrain with a small lake. Beautiful trees and a lot of perfect grass.
He still couldn't believe what is going on. Quite unexpected and extremely nostalgic.
Every corner, every place, everything is as he remembered it. Without a doubt, he's going to protect his beloved city putting his life on the line.
This city is the one his mother and family loved the most in this world. They sacrificed their lives to save everyone. He's not going to let their sacrifices to be in vain, not this time.
Now is different, he used to be a good for nothing before, not the case anymore. He's a supreme expert with vast knowledge and experience.
While he was walking to his house, several people whispered as he passed by the streets.
"There goes the loser, ¿Can you believe he is from the Lightion clan?"
"He's a disgrace for the Lightion family's reputation."
"How is it possible for someone like him to be from an elite clan?"
"Don't be stupid, the Lightion clan isn't one of the elite anymore, not with that good for nothing."
"His family must be wallowing in his grave for having a successor as useless as him."
"Have a little respect. We are alive thanks to them."
"It doesn't matter. The Lightion clan was one of the most powerful ones and respected, but they're part of history now."
"He's right. The Lightion family will never return to his golden age anymore, with a useless successor like him, the clan is doomed."
Most of these comments were from men or boys who envied the fame and history of his family.
A lot of people respected the Lightion clan, and for this very reason, they think it's a disgrace that the only descendant left of such a dynasty is a good for nothing with no talent.
Despite everything, Nikolas Lightion was quite popular with the girls because of his appearance.
He has good genes, and he inherited the beauty of his mother, which was a goddess between goddesses.
"I don't care if his a good for nothing or a weakling, he's very cute, and I like him." Said a beautiful girl to her friends.
"Do you like that weakling? Haha, you're kidding, right?" Said a boy in the group.
"Are you jealous? Yes, weakling or not, I like him. I think he's very handsome besides having a great style."
"I also like him. He's beautiful, seductive and he's very above you, like it or not." Said another girl from the group.
This guy with contempt and envy is Urie Hogma. He's the youngest brother of the first successor of the Hogma family, a big clan with a lot of talent.
They are known for their offensive techniques and their lava element.
Urie Hogma is a spoiled guy who always looks over others with a certain air of superiority.
He always gets what he wants by fair means or foul. This clan was never able to compete with the Lightion clan.
They were a clan with a low amount of members while the Hogma clan was always superior regarding numbers, yet they were always inferior. Because of this reason, they crushed their pride all the time.
Now that Nikolas Lightion is the only survivor and successor of the Lightion family, Urie Hogma can't help but tease him and make fun of him in front of everyone.
After hearing what his friends told him, fury invaded him.
"Why do they see him that way? I should be the one who gets the flattery. He's a weakling with no talent, not an opponent for me, yet he's far way more popular with the girls than me." He thought to himself.
With a devilish smile full of evil desires he told his friends, "I'll show you two how useless and fearful is the boy you both admire so much, just watch."
Aggressively began to walk to intercept Nikolas Lightion and show his superiority to impress the girls.
"Hey, trash from the Lightion family! What does a wimp like you walking with a head up high in my city?"
Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.
"Huh? I don't know what you're talking about right now. This city belongs to the King and not to the Hogma family, which isn't part of the royalty." Said Nikolas Lightion as he walked on.
Urie Hogma was speechless for a moment. He stretched his arm and grabbed Nikolas Lightion by the shoulder, "It seems you have some balls to talk to me that way. Your family is part of the past, so you need to speak to me with respect now."
Nikolas Lightion slightly turned his head back and looked at Urie Hogma with terrifying and cold eyes. He released a threatening murderous aura, "It's going to be better if you let me go if you don't want me to embarrass you in front of your friends."
A deep fear invaded Urie Hogma. He instinctively releases it quickly and stands motionless due to the killing intent that invaded his soul in an instant.
To all this, Nikolas Lightion continued walking his way without looking back, quietly with his hands in his pockets.
"Hahaha! So, that's how you do it? It only takes a couple of words to put you in your place." Said one of the girls.
"Am I afraid? I'm not sure what just happened, but I'm sure I felt a terrifying threat. My body doesn't stop shaking, and I can't move!" Thought Urie Hogma indignantly as his pride wilted into hundreds of pieces.
"I just felt sorry, a wimp like him doesn't deserve my precious time, I'm leaving." Said Urie Hogma as he started to walk leaving his friends behind.
"Now, I'm more impressed than before, for some reason I like him even more!" One of the girls said while other answered, "Right? The same for me!"
They don't know what just happened, Nikolas Lightion didn't act as normally does, his behavior was completely different as if were a different person.
For some reason, they saw him more mature, and because of it, they like him even more now.
Nikolas Lightion has black hair, a mix of straight and spiky. He has spiky bangs that cover his forehead, a little bit larger in the middle between his eyes. At the sides of his face, between his ears and eyes, he has long spiky bangs that reach the middle of the neck. Those are three spiky bangs, and the main one is big while the other two are smaller than the previous one in the direction to the ears.
In the back of his head, he also has spiky hair. Half is pointing slightly down, almost to his shoulders, while the rest is pointing slightly upwards.
On the top of his head, he has straight hair and not spiky. He inherited the beautiful hair of his mother.
He has green eyes and a well-trained body, physically. He wears a white long-sleeved t-shirt with a high collar, loose black pants that are tighter in the direction of his ankles and a black pair of ankle boots.
After a while, he arrived at his home.
A beautiful mansion, worth of an elite clan. When Nikolas Lightion entered, he stood looking around with certain nostalgic.
The grass, the trees, the buildings, he feels very calm to be able to see everything in its place as if nothing had happened.
Inside his room, there is a bag.
"Did I just return before I left? So, this is the time when I went traveling." Said Nikolas Lightion with a shocked face and continued, "This time I'm not going anywhere, I'll rebuild the clan and give it back the glory it deserves, and I'll earn respect from everyone once again no matter what."
He lay on the bed on his back with one arm behind his head and started remembering the invasion where his family died.
"Mother, you sacrificed your life for this city. I understand your feelings but did you think about me for a moment? After using that forbidden technique, there is not a single person alive except me. I would have liked to be with you more time. I was so young that I almost have no memories of you."
"Damn it. I'm not going to let anyone close to me die, not this time. I'll not stop until I fulfill my revenge and the welfare of all is assured."
Nikolas Lightion with a face of pure determination went to the main courtyard to train.
After looking at his body, he said, "I'm still not used to this body, it's my body, but at the same time it is not. Even though my head orders movements, my body will not be able to follow orders, it's not used to it. I'll have to train hard."
He tried some techniques but couldn't do anything. He had no Spiritual Energy, not a single drop.
At that moment, he remembered that his body has a very powerful seal that suppresses all its force.
This seal was made by his mother when he was a child. Nikolas Lightion was born with a threatening Spiritual Energy that could easily get out of control because he couldn't control it being so young.
Not only his life was at risk, but he could also hurt someone for lack of control.
It's a very complex seal which can allow the user to release small amounts of Spiritual Energy until it gets used to it. Sadly for him, unless someone with knowledge about the technique release each layer it will suppress the entire Spiritual Energy, leaving him as a normal person.
His mother died when he was very young, leaving the seal active.
It's the reason why people consider him as a good for nothing or a weakling with no talent. In other words, he's a normal person who can't use Heavenly Energy and doesn't have any Spiritual Energy.
The reality is different because the Spiritual Energy is suppressed and sealed.
His mother was an inscription master, the seal's level is very high and completely undetected by most people.
One must have a great understanding towards inscriptions to be able to detect the seal and even more, release it.
In his past life, he was able to meet his mother's teacher in the art of inscriptions. He was the one who detected the seal and released him from his nightmare.
Thanks to him, he was able to achieve the inscription master title as his mother so this time isn't necessary to leave the city.
"Without a doubt, I'll try to bring the Sage to the city. It's too dangerous for him and the rest to live in that small village." Said Nikolas Lightion as he remembered his travels.
He tried to release the seal by himself, but he couldn't do it because it's necessary to use Spiritual Energy. Normal people can't do any kind of technique.
"This is a problem, but I can't do anything about it now. I'm very hungry. I should cook something. At least, I have more experience now. I don't want to eat never again the crap I ate in my travels." Said Nikolas Lightion clutching his stomach and looking disgusted.
When he went to the kitchen to find something to cook, he found a box-shaped container on the table.
"This it was made by Victoria Wenix without a doubt!" Said Nikolas Lightion after opening the box-shaped container and continued, "I remember that she used to cook me quite often, but I don't remember when she gave it to me because I've been here for a couple of hours. Probably, it was before we left together."
"I left her alone today, I'm an idiot, but I was too overwhelmed by what was going on. I'll make up for it later. The food is delicious, what a nostalgic feeling, I missed this taste for a long time."
A warm feeling invaded Nikolas Lightion after eating her food.
