I walked into it and calmed them down
"Mam , come on they are youthfully kids. They made a mistake so what??", I said with my deceiving smile and salesman like eyes.
"They are kids how is Roman going to cultivate and study if he is going to take care of the kid", she said.
Roman at that point said, "mom I don't care what happens? This is my kid and i am going to take responsibility for it."
"Shut up.", she screamed.
Then I said mam,"let us go to that corner and discuss it."
I immediately shot him a glance and told him to shut his mouth and comfort his girlfriend.
"Mam, see here what is her name??", I said.
"I don't know something like Elizabeth Hans"
She said.
I replied, "Mam as you know the girl is pregnant and they both made a mistake that's the bad part but there is a good side to it."
"What good side??", she asked.
I said , "The fact he is trying to take responsibility for her as a cultivator if a man doesn't take responsibility he will never progress."
"That.."as she was about to say I replied.
"But mam rather than becoming a throne in their side observe how they are doing things how is she in real life? If there is nothing wrong then you have found yourself a daughter in law who doesn't love him just cause status but for he himself", I said.
As she was a victim to my father's debauchery i could see she was becoming open to the idea so I decided to give her another one.
"Rather than doing this let's give them an ultimatum if they can reach spirit weapon forming rank in five years ?? They can be together. If not then you will find out both of their characters. How about it?? If they can't I will pay you $500,000" I said.
"Huh, why are you spending money on them??", she said.
" Investment mam investment. I am investing in the future call me the cupid investor." I replied.
"Hmm alright it will not be a loss for me so let's go and shake on that deal" she said and shaked my hand.
"If somehow that child turned out to be a massive talent in cultivator i can brag about it. Okay I have decided.", she said.
Then we both went to the living room and she said, "alright I have come to a decision of both of you can become spirit weapon forming rank in five years. I will allow this marriage."
To which Elizabeth and Roman looked at like I was their messiah.
Then, she said," I hope that you succeed." Before turning her back and going away.
Then brother and Elizabeth caught me and took me to a room.
"Thank you for your help", they both said .
I replied,"stop bowing and listen up."
"Brother I have better about $500,000 on both of you reaching that stage please with the love of God reach it.", i said.
"Then I will start cultivating immediately and advance first", said Elizabeth.
"No sister in law , you need to first take care of the child then you will still have three years to reach it. I know you can reach it " I said.
She looked at me and similed
"The one i am scared about is brother can you reach that stage easily??"I said.
"Who are you doubting?? Huh. I am your older brother", he said.
Then i took my brother and said,"no matter what don't treat her like a thing just like our father did. No matter what you do I will beat the shit out of you untill you get your head on the right side".
He looked at me and said, "no matter what I will treat her correctly."
I gave him a smile and went on my way.
...
As i was about to enter I saw my mother, now somehow her demeanour was different. She said, "I liked how you handled it thee good job and if you ever need money you can come to me ".
I was angry but I didn't want to stick to the past and keep being sad, so I said,"i am happy you are trying to change but it will take some time to get used to. I don't want us to end up in these state we both suck at communicating, so it's better if we communicated properly. You shouldn't take your anger out on Eli's mom when you are angry at dad."
"Why did you intervene? You had nothing to gain from it", my mother said.
"No that' s where you are wrong . I have gained their respect and dignity now I will only have to carve them to be the perfect pieces.", I said.
She looked at me worryingly and said , "no matter which side you are on. I will always support you. Please remember this." And left
At that point I realised my character of manipulating people is still there but I don't want to manipulate them this time. But if anybody intends to go against me I will crush them through any means.
....
I saw Eli standing infront of my room.
"Thank you for returning my mother's job and the $100,000",he said.
"How did you knew it was me?",i asked.
"Common sense but why are you doing this??", he asked me.
I replied,"investment."and proceeded to hand him the catalogue.
"What is this??" He asked.
I replied,"investment." And then ignored him and entered my room.
"Why are you acting so different now??" Eli said.
"But I always pay back what I receive so be prepared ", he said.
...
One day ago at night.
"Forgive me mother this is it. You have crossed a line nobody should have"
"Ahhh." Jen screamed (Aethel's mother.)
"What's going on what are these memories? I tried to do these to my son?? How can I ??
What horrible things these are??" Jen said.
"I will change no matter what I will change for you and be a better mother.", Jen said.
...
I entered my room and look at the elixirs i bought. I immediately took a bit out of the sion fruits and started cultivating. I made the first imag of the catalogue.
The first image was a cell .
Then I tried to make the second image which was a tissue of cell and then .
"Boom"
A explosion occured. I need to strengthen my core with dragon blood first and the try it with my remaining sion fruits.
I took.2 drops of dragon blood and suddenly I saw something. A chick dragon is born while the mother is adoring the chick . I saw and started cultivating and was easily able to make the first picture and the second picture.
Now I attempted the third one which was a body part and started to shape my inner world.
Tick tick tick.
All of a sudden a wonderful energy flowed through me as if my reserve has increased.
I continuously did the whole night to strengthen my core.
