Time flew by like running water, within but mere seconds 22 hours had vanished. Sin was so engrossed in his enlightenment, he wasn't aware of being transported out of the Mystic Blade World. Instead the Mystic Blade Empress put him into big auto healing training ground, here Sin could wreak all the havoc and devastation he wanted to without any cause of concern.

After another day passed Sin had finally achieved the perfect state. Sins Mystic Unity, Sword Qi and Mana perfectly united into a single entity with Kaiser. Raising his Soul Weapon up into the air, Sin slashed down with terrifying might.

The entire training ground was cleaved in half, the spatial nodes in the surrounding area were cut through. Thunder boomed so loud, it rocked over 25,000 kilometers of the Grand Warrior Trials. The shockwaves sent out was so domineering, trees, rocks, mountains, rivers were completely devastated.

Sin had regained his clarity, and a smile was on his face. He was on a fucking roll lately! Sin had found the perfect name for this new technique, naming it [Thunder Lords Descent!]

Sin did a mental count, he had about 35 hours of time left. Which means Alannah must be hating her papa right about now. Sin hadn't cooked any 'yummy' food in so long, he was sure to be on the shit list. It had been 8 days in total so far, and he had yet to achieve his goal of killing the Dragon King.

After coming out of his thoughts, Sin had seen the Mystic Blade Empress. Sin kowtowed paying his respects to her.

"Thank you master for this trial. It had pushed me beyond my limits in many ways, and it had cleared my mindset of looking at stats to determine how strong someone/something is."

The Mystic Blade Empress smiled, she raised her hand bringing Sin back to his feet. "You have yet to receive your full reward. You have yet to become the Mystic Blade Disciple class, unless of course you feel you no longer need it?"

Sins eyes widened. "I NEED it!" he shouted, after getting a taste of the Mystic Soul, and Mystic Unity states as well as his Mystic Sorcery ability White Nebula. Sin was craving to have such a bad ass class! It was like being the ultimate hidden class, that surpassed legacy classes in MMORPGS! How could any man/women give up that desire for such an achievement?

The Mystic Blade Empress smiled widely. "Well then come here my disciple, master is going to give you the class as well as many boons. You have earned all that you are getting from me, while you're my first and ONLY disciple, I will not spoil you. But you do need to be rewarded for your monstrous growth and capabilities."

Sin walked over to his master, as he got close her right hand was placed on his heart, and left hand was placed on his forehead. Her hands were radiating white-blue plasma, the energy was soft but Sin could feel the destructive force behind it. If this was only the first step along his class, he was more than eager for the next stages!

The aura wrapped around Sin, his body was absorbing the white-blue plasma at breakneck speeds. Shortly after a cocoon of plasma had wrapped itself around Sins body. Inside Sin was going through excruciating pain that nearly made him yelp. His body was being decomposed and recomposed, the visual was gory watching his own flesh burst off his body. His muscles, veins, organs rupture and then heal at the same time.

This process repeated itself for 8 hours, but felt more like a lifetime to Sin. Mystic Blade Empress was staring in complete and utter shock, Sins body had devoured all the energy. She even had to refuel up and recharge her plasma cocoon 6 times within the last 8 hours. She herself was drained, just from helping her disciple achieve his class. But she was filled with pride, affection, and motherly instinct towards Sin. It felt like she was raising her own son to become a monstrous existence.

Sins process had finally stopped, and his body felt like he had just chugged down 40 Killer Grape energy drinks. After emerging from the cocoon, Sins body had white-blue plasma energy sparking around his body. Sins hair had raised like a porcupine, while his eyes had become a blue-white tint.

Sins logs were now waiting for his appraisal.

Sin whistled. "That's what I am fucking talking about baby!"

The Mystic Blade Empress stared at her disciple in shock. "Disciple are you sure you're okay?" She asked with a questioning gaze as if Sin were retarded.

Sin recomposed himself. "Sorry master, I was just super pumped up after looking over my stats."

The Mystic Blade Empress had a knowing smile on her face. "Alright, well you have 27 hours left. You better go down and see you daughter, don't forget your unresolved grudge either!"

Before Sin had the chance to ask more about his class and profession, his master had already kicked him in the ass launching him downwards. Before Sin was about to crash into the earth below, he instinctively went into Soul Unity, just as his feet touched the ground Sin used the rebounding force to hop backwards over 50 steps.

Looking up hatefully at his masters palace he yelled "That was unethical master! You're going to be the reason why I die!"

A giant blue-white fist showed itself in front of Sin, out of fear he covered his head and ducked as close to the ground as he could. After he realized a few moments later he wasn't smacked around, Sin looked up what he saw made steam billow out his ears.

His master had just flipped him off while her playful laughter sounded out aloud.

Before he could yell back up in frustration, Sin decided to be a smart man and stop what was about to come out of his mouth. While he was still thinking a multitude of curses, and hate crimes against his master he heard a little girls voice he missed dearly over this period of time.

"Papa papa papa papa!" Alannah came running towards his direction leaving a massive dust trail behind her. From 600 feet away, Alannah launched herself into Sins embrace. Sin caught her like a football before heaving her over his head and spinning around in circles.

"There's my girl, were you good for your auntie Ari?"

Alannah was all smiles, with the purest smile on her face. "Of course I was good for auntie Ari!"

Then Ariya appeared shortly after, she had heavy bags under her eyes and looked mentally disarrayed.

Sin seeing this looked at Alannah, and then he look at Ariya back and forth many times.

"Are you lying to your papa?" Sin asked questioningly.

Hearing her papa's tone Alannah pouted. "Forget that! Papa is finally back to make yummy food again! Auntie Ari sucks at cooking papa, she made me eat so many yucky foods!" Tears were practically flowing out of Alannahs eyes at the 'torture' she had to suffer through.

Ariya had just arrived and overheard this, her eyes turned slightly hateful. She looked at Sin, and then the 'peaceful' Alannah in his embrace saying a single word with traces of fear. "Monster!"

Sin smiled "Alright it's been a long 8 days, let's go and eat some yummy food!"

Alannah was the most enthusiastic about it, her cheers were louder than thunder. "Papas making yummy food! Hooray for papa!"

Sin returned to their camp and began cooking, the entire time Alannah was sitting on Sins shoulders drooling profusely. Sin was all smiles the entire time, he missed having his little girl on his shoulders.

Reiya was studying Sin the entire time, ever since meeting up with Sin for the first time in 8 days. Reiya felt the aura Sin was radiating unconsciously was suffocating. Sin was already a monstrous existence, it just went to further prove how much stronger Sin is now. To the point he can't fully conceal the excess aura leaking from his body.

Alannahs stomach was rumbling, Sin took out a plate and gave her some snacks to munch on before supper was ready.

Sin made a simple shrimp stir fry for supper. After giving Alannah her plate of food, she took her first bite and tears of joy came out of her eyes. After swallowing it she was more than happy.

"Papas cooking is so good!" Tears continued to stream from Alannahs eyes the more she ate. After everyone was done eating, Sin washed up the dishes. After that Alannah came bouncing over to Sin.

"Papa is so much stronger now! Papa come chase me and play tag!"

Alannah got a head start running ahead, Sin smiled and began chasing after her. "The big bad papa is gonna get his little girl!"

Alannahs laughter was sounding out, Ariya was watching this scene of father and daughter chasing after each other. Both were moving so fast, it was like watching mirrored images of each other interweaving and dodging.

Alannah was frustrated the entire time. "Papa that's no fair! Your white-blue eyes are giving away my trajectories!"

Sin was smiling as wide as possible. "Forget about that my daughter, try harder! Let your subconscious expand outside of your body. Focus your consciousness not on me, but the flow of my Mana!"

Alannah took her papas advice to heart, while Sin was under extreme pressure to get the feeling for his Mystic Soul state. Alannah was merely playing a simple game of tag with Sin, while learning three times faster than he did.

After 45 minutes, Alannahs eyes erupted with white-blue aura, her eyes became lifeless as her body followed Sins Mana traces. After about 15 minutes Alannah started complaining. "Papa my head hurts! There's too much environmental and particle movements, this is unfair!"

Sin stopped and went to pat her head, then he realized he was tricked and Alannah tagged his arm. Alannah stuck her tongue out at Sin and loudly said "Psych!"

Sin smiled lovingly before yelling out to Alannah "Come here you little cheater, papas gonna get you!"

Sin was finding it hard to tag Alannah now, she was truly a little monster. No matter how he operated in the first stage, there was no way of getting Alannah. Seeing this, Alannah was starting to get bold.

"Come on papa you slowpoke! You'll never get me at this rate!"

Sin combined both his consciousness and subconscious together. His aura immediately underwent a change, Alannah sensed it immediately when she tried to apologize, Sin had already picked her up from behind and started tickling Alannah.

Alannahs laughter sounded out. "Hey that's not fair, you cheated this time papa!"

Sin smiled "That's right Alannah, two people cheating doesn't make it right."

Alannah pouted but nonetheless she was still happy.

Ariya who was watching this all unfold was hit with a wave of emotion. She started seeing the image of Sirius overlap Sins, while Alannah had been Reiya playing tag with her father. Ariya truly felt guilty and sad, but what was done was already done. Reiya turned out to be a fine women, even without having a father figure in her life. This much brought a smile to Ariyas face.

Before returning back to the camp, Sin filled a big black pot full of water. After getting back to camp, Sin took out some wooden planks, stabbing them into the ground in a circular shape. After that he took out a bunch of dark coloured curtains, hanging it up with loops on the circular rod connected to the wooden planks.

Sin heated the water up up to a moderately warm/cool temperature, calling Alannah over she dipped her finger into it before saying "Perfect!"

Sin lifted Alannah up and over into the pot full of water, After splashing water at each other for a long time. Alannah was starting to doze off, Sin took her out of the makeshift bath, drying and dressing her.

Carrying Alannah back into the tent, Sin tucked her into bed goodnight. Alannah wrapped her arms and wings around Sins neck giving him a big hug. "Goodnight papa I love you!"

Sin hugged Alannah giving her a kiss on her forehead. "Goodnight my little angel, you sleep good. Papa will make a yummy breakfast tomorrow morning" Sin lovingly ruffled Alannahs hair before leaving the tent. Soon Alannah drifted off into the dreamland with a smile on her face.

After leaving the tent, Sin walked over to Ariya. Whispering into her ear.

"I am sorry to ask this of you, but can you watch over Alannah for tonight?"

Ariya wasn't mad at this, but she looked into Sins eyes and asked. "Are you claiming your debt with the Dragon King?"

Sin nodded his head. "Yes I am going to kill the Dragon King tonight. You two have gained plenty of points over these last 8 days. It's time I make up for my lazy bones, and get a hearty reward of points from killing the Dragon King."

Ariya looked at Sin with eyes full of tender emotion. "You be careful out there, Alannah was so heartbroken about you not being there in the mornings when she woke up."

Sin smiled. "Don't worry, with my current condition I can easily bulldoze snakey snake."

After that Sins figure vanished into the night sky.

Alannahs eyes widened up the moment her papas aura vanished. Her eyes revealed a sad look, but remembering her papas promise, she went back to sleep eagerly waiting for tomorrow mornings yummy breakfast.
