《Rise of the White Dragon 》Chapter 103: Testament

"I'm going to propose to her. But now is not the time," Luan said, "Many things are happening, and it is not the right time for marriage."
Saulo was a man with many experiences. He could tell that there were many things that Luan did not say or could not say, however, he didn't try to get Luan to speak. Saulo was already very happy with his grandson; there was no reason why he would force Luan to say something he was not comfortable talking about.
"Grandfather, is there a larger place that just you and I can be alone?" Luan finished drinking the tea and asked.
"Yes, there is a dojo that I used to train Maira and Nilson when they were just teenagers. We can go there." Saulo got up from the sofa without needing the help of his cane.
"Yes." Luan stood up as well.
Saulo showed the way and Luan walked with him to the dojo that was outside the mansion just a little further away at the back of the mansion. It was a large dojo with tatami mats on the floor. There were some sets of armor and wooden swords that were used to train Kendo placed along the wall. The whole place was very tidy, prevalent, and was regularly cleaned by the maids.
"Grandfather, I'm going to start in an easy and slow way. Just watch me do it first, and then try to imitate me," Luan said.
"Okay, I'm ready anytime." Saulo was in serious mode. Even his aura had gotten more powerful; he was really dominant.
'As to be expected of someone who survived the second world war...' Luan murmured to himself in his heart.
"I'll start," Luan warned.
Luan's movements were slow and smooth. It was like he was doing a slow dance alone. However, Saulo was able to judge that every move that Luan made was without flaws, at least, he was unable to find flaws. Each time Luan moved, he brought with him a great sense of calm and power. It was ridiculous how strong he seemed to be while just making a few demonstration moves.

Saulo paid close attention and made the same movements mentally. He replicated all the movements that Luan had made in his mind and made mistakes a few times to his chagrin, but they were not complete failures. He managed to progress just by watching and did not even need long before he started executing them himself. He replayed the scenes of the movements that Luan made in his mind until he started getting close to getting all the moves right.
"Grandfather, now try to do it with me," Luan said.
Saulo nodded. "Yes, I'm ready to try."
The bones that didn't move properly due to Saulo's years cracked when he made some moves, but that didn't stop him from continuing. In fact, the more he did it, the less pain he felt. They were very difficult moves for him to do at his age, however, he was not an ordinary person and had also taken the two pills that Luan had given to him. That alone was enough to help him manage to complete the movements, albeit with some flaws.
Luan continued to help Saulo for the next two hours, but Saulo was an old man, and he couldn't go on any longer. In fact, having lasted two hours was beyond Luan's expectations.
"Grandfather, now sit on the floor and listen very carefully to what I'm going to say. Then try to say it in your mind while meditating," Luan said calmly.
"Yes." Wiping the sweat from his forehead with his hand, Saulo sat on the floor with his legs crossed.
Luan did the same and looked at Saulo as he started to say the mantra used in meditation: [Enqmcpo-vcglmt-edsfkeq-enftpqasnv-nãsosdohh...]
Although he did not understand a single word spoken by Luan, Saulo did not dare to neglect this and used all his attention to listen and memorize what Luan said to him.

'Heh... I managed to find out everything.' Luan let out a cold laugh as he fiddled with his laptop in his room. In the panel opened on his laptop, there was information about the fact that Vincent Cont made a will and Luan managed to find out who the three witnesses were, as well as which of them was left with the will. Luan took a while to discover this because it was not done in a registry office, but rather, somewhere private.

It was still 4:30 pm on the 14th of March, Sunday. Luan discovered the current location of the three witnesses who were present on the day the will was made and knew what was written in the will. Luan didn't go out in his car; he ran at a very fast speed that even the surveillance cameras only saw a figure passing by but couldn't even identify if it was a person or something else.
The first witness was a woman. Luan took the chance that she was alone in her house with the door open, and entered, and before she could notice, he made her pass out and began to change the memories of the day that the will was made. Her name is Jeovana Cont, sister of Vincent Cont. After finishing doing what he had to do, Luan left as quickly as he entered.
The next target was a man whose name was Cleber Aguiar, Vincent's best friend, or at least Cleber thought he was. Luan found Cleber doing a barbecue at his house, and when Cleber went to the bathroom, Luan came in and made him sleep. Luan then altered his memories, and left very quickly without being noticed.
'Now only the last one was missing and also the one with the will...' The last witness was a woman by the name of Roberta Amaral. She was close to 60 years old and lived alone and was at that moment at home. Luan managed to easily enter the house and saw her sleeping in her bed. Luan wasted no time and changed her memories too.
After doing this, Luan went to the safe, and with the information he got straight from Roberta's memories, he opened it. Luan didn't open the will; he didn't need to do that. He already knew the content of the will and knew what he wanted to change. He used a spell where he could change the positions of the letters written on the paper, and he could also duplicate the letters.
In the will he left, it read like this: [I, Vincent Cont, finding myself in my most perfect judgment, without any kind of inducement or coercion, took the initiative to make my private will, in the manner provided for in art. 1876 1st of the Civil Code, accompanied by three qualified and capable witnesses, who are here at this moment meeting with me at my residence. I will now manifest my declaration of last will, namely:
My name is Vincent Cont, 50 years old, born in Minas Gerais, holder of the General Registry n. XXXX, registered with CPF n. XXXX, necessary heir, my paramour Arlinda Silva, 50% in total. And the other 50% of my assets that I had at the time of my death must be donated to the charity of children with cancer. I appoint Mr. Roberta Amaral as my executor who will be in charge of enforcing this will, and may be paid at the discretion of the inventory judge.
In this way, and in accordance with the provisions of article 1876 to 1880 of the Code complied with by justice, asking the witnesses to confirm it in court, I thus end my private will, which, together with the witnesses, I sign in this city of Santa Catarina on the first of September, 2005 at eleven in the morning.]
Luan left Roberta Amaral's house and ran the entire way back home.
