Chapter 15: Destiny
As Revant gathered all the corpses, he recognized every corpses from his village.
The old village chief that adopted him and acts as his foster father, the kind auntie that smile ever so warmly, his two big brothers that always dote on him and taught him how to fight, that big sister that always pinches bis cheeks, the armless veteran old uncle that has a fierce countenance but a very kind heart, his guy best friend that was always in his side, the old grandma that always offer porridge, the little boy that always picks a fight with him, the little girl who always defend him from the little boy that picks a fight with him.
Every single one of the villagers he knows and remembers. And every corpse he gathered he recognized. Every singe one of them that he recognized further destroys his sanity slowy as he gradually drowns in insanity. Revant's current mind right now was in the brink of losing his sanity, his already dried up tears was replaced with gushing tears of blood. He gritted his teeth to the point of crackong it as he carefully placed each and single body in the ground and burying them.
With his mind almost broken, he suddenly felt a pat in his back. The pat was so natural and gentle that it actually pulled his mind that was in the process of losing its sanity, as if he was hanging in the very edge of the cliff that lead to an abyss but a hand appeared in front of him, saving him.
His blank eyes immediately regained its glitter, as if that pat gave him hope to walk towards the future with confidence and power.
Revant looked towards the owner of the arm. It was the bald man that appeared very ordinary.
"Kid, everyone suffer tragedies in life, don't let this consume you. I am very sorry of what happened, but everyone will face this eventually so accept it. Don't let hatred, madness and insanity consume you but instead consume them yourself, use it as you life fuel, your drive force towards your future that you yourself will tread and create." Saitama said.
Revant eges brightened as he recieved enlightenment from Saitama's word. He forcefully wiped his bloody tears and composed himself.
"You know, this world is just the same as my place. You know who will survive and stand strong in this cruel and merciless world?" Saitama asked with utter seriousness.
Even Bob himself was engrossed at his Master speech, although the speech itself is normal but when spoken from his Master, it exudes certain charm that can make one's blood boil.
Bob and Revant wondered at the same time.
"The Strong." Saitama mightily said.
Such word spoken by Saitama contains unbearable might as if it was spoken by the strongest man himself. Both of them felt their soul shake to the very soul.
Both of their blood right now was boiling, they were overwhelmed with feeling of wanting to become stronger.
"I am a professional hero, it is my job to save people. One who will disrupt me from doing my duties will receive my fist. That is why to avoid this tragedy from happening again, become stronger, be strong enough until you can protect the one you wanted to protect from the enemies." Saitama said with passion.
Of course, Saitama doesn't plan on letting those murderers go. He let them left to prioritize Revant first who was covered with serious injuries internal and external. Thankfully, his now disiciple Bob, that has a cool nickname 'Soul Immortal' healed Revant promptly.
"Ill keep that in mind." Revant bowed as his lifeless eyes was now brimming with energy.
Revant understood what Saitama said, what is done is already done. His village was massacred and there is nothing he can do about it. He already accepted the tragedy, although accepted he won't plan on forgetting it. Just like the bald man said, he will become stronger and stronger so that he will enact vengeance of today's tragedy, he will make them suffer a million times more than what he suffered. He will never ever let those people go but until then, he will cultivate.
Beneath Revant's energetic eyes, there hid an intense fury, hatred and desire for revenge.
As they got closer on finishing burying the dead, Revant's brows furrowed.
Revant gathered all the villagers bodies except for one.
"Destiny." Revant muttered.
Destiny was a girl his age he was very close to, she was the first to discover Revant in river near the forest floating and brought him back to the old chief of the village. Both of them was just 7 years old at that time yet Destiny with all her might carried Revant who was floating in the river unconscious to the village.
Since then Revant was adopted, Destiny became his bossom friend. Most of the day he was with Destiny talking and playing. Destiny was considered as the village princess and very beautiful with her sparkling golden hair and glittering emerald eyes. Her face and body that was not matured was already very beautiful, surely if she'll grow mature enough her beauty will surely cause a continental war.
Upon thinking of Destiny, Revant was delighted yet nervous at the same time. Delighted because there is a big possibility that she might still be alive, but nervous that although even if she might still be alive, she was not that well of.
Revant was thinking that maybe those murderers brought Destiny back and?
He doesn't dare to imagine what comes next.
Thinking of the possibility, Revant bloodlust came out again.
Feeling the sudden change of Revant after muttering 'Destiny', Saitama once again pat his back.
"Calm down kid, you need to be clearheaded to think of your next move."
With the voice of Saitama, Revant promptly calm down.
----
After burying all the bodies, Revant bowed as he greatly expressed his gratitude towards the two.
"Seniors, thank you for your generosity in helping me. I will greatly repay you both in the future. Now I must go." Revant said as he slowly turned his back towards them and walked away.
Bob and Saitama looked at each other.
"Now wait for a moment kid, why the haste?" Bob stopped Revant, he was intrigued and amazed by this kid due to his willpower and his way of thinking. Even in his realm, one can only find a handful of kids in Revant's age that can match him.
"I need to find another place to settle to, I heard from the old grandpa village chief that there is a kingdom in the northwest direction from here. I'll go there first and plan my next move." Revant said.
When he heard empowering speech of Saitama earlier, the former swears himself that he will quickly cultivate, find Destiny and then vengeance. But first he must find the murderers first to get some information. Even if the two experts in front of him offer some help, he will decline as he want to be exact this revenge himself.
"Well how about taking me as your master kid?" Bob suddenly offered. He already knew that Revant was a Peak Body Enhancer Stage but he wasn't impressed as they were common as clouds in his realm. Although a 13 year old kid having a cultivation level here might be considered as a genius, but it was very common in Bob's realm. There are even at Revant's age that are already Golden Core Formation. What moved him is Revant's willpower and his ability to control his emotions. He wanted to try and bet in Revant, to see if hardwork, determination and willpower can overcome geniuses like his disciple, Soul Fiend.
Revant was skeptical at first when he heard the offer, he didn't know what level of cultivation this middle-aged man in front of him is.
Seeing the expression of Revant's face, Bob immediately understood. He laughed wryly as he released an aura of Peak Golden Core Formation. Of course as an Martial Immortal, Bob can control and even disguise his aura to any cultivation level below.
"Kid, I am a peak Golden Core Formation. Even the highest level person that participated in the massacre of the village was only Rank 1 Golden Core Formation, I can kill him with just a finger." Bob explained to Revant.
Revant eyes glittered. He clearly felt the powerful aura Bob released.
He was already planning on finding a master or joining a sect after he arrived in his destination. Many would accept him due to his cultivation level in his age. He will be hailed as a genius and use that as a way of getting more resources to become stronger.
Never did he imagine that the expert in front of him was actually a Peak Golden Core Formation.
He didn't hesitate and accepted the offer.
