After a few hours of unconsciousness, Izumi gradually began to regain consciousness. As he opened his eyes, he found himself surrounded by the familiar faces of his mother, Mihuru, and his girlfriend, Michan. Both women had been anxiously waiting for him to wake up, and when they saw him stir, their relief was palpable.
Mihuru: (tearfully) "Izumi, you're awake!"
Michan: (with tears of joy) "We were so worried about you!"
Izumi blinked as his surroundings came into focus, and he realized that he was safe with his loved ones. He managed a weak but reassuring smile.
Izumi: (softly) "Mom, Michan, I'm okay."
Mihuru and Michan couldn't contain their emotions any longer and enveloped him in a tight, tearful embrace, their worry and fear melting away in the presence of their beloved son and boyfriend.
Mihuru: (with gratitude) "We were so scared, Izumi."
Michan: (whispering) "I'm just glad you're okay."
The family gathered together, each member expressing their shock and fear over the events that had transpired. Jhon and Miyabi, Alice, Shuuto, Shihoko, Jake, and Chitose all shared in the worry and concern for their loved ones who had been affected by Sayo's sinister trap.
Izumi, feeling a deep sense of responsibility and determination, discussed his plan to go and rescue his father, uncle, and sensei. He wanted to confront the danger head-on and ensure their safety. However, Mihuru, his mother, couldn't bear the thought of her son risking his life in such a dangerous situation.
Mihuru: (with deep concern) "Izumi, it's too dangerous. I can't bear the thought of losing you too."
The sentiment was echoed by everyone present. They all agreed that it was too perilous for Izumi to go alone, and they feared the consequences if something were to happen to him.
Michan, despite her love for Izumi and her own concerns, stood united with the family's decision.
Michan: (supportively) "Izumi, we can't lose you. We'll find another way, together."
As the family and their loved ones discussed the situation and the decision not to send Izumi alone, two mysterious figures suddenly appeared at the front door. One of them was dressed casually, blending into the crowd, while the other wore traditional monk's attire. Their sudden arrival caught everyone's attention.
**Casual-Dressed Figure:** (with a confident tone) "We're here to help, young one. To aid you in facing the challenges that lie ahead."
**Monk-Dressed Figure:** (calmly) "The journey you're embarking on is perilous. We have knowledge and skills that can guide you safely."
**Izumi:** (intrigued but wary) "But who are you? How do you know about our situation?"
The room fell into an expectant silence as all eyes turned toward the enigmatic duo, waiting for their response and the explanation of their presence in this critical moment.
**Casual-Dressed Figure (Myamura):** "I am Myamura, and I have had the honor of being Amane's teacher."
**Monk-Dressed Figure (Elite):** "I am Elite, and I have had the privilege of training both Fuji and Itsuki."
The revelation that these two individuals had been the mentors of the legendary figures in the room left the entire family in awe and astonishment.
As Myamura and Elite activated their fighting domains, their eyes turned black, emanating an aura of power and determination. They assured the worried family that they would ensure the safety of their students.
**Myamura:** (with a resolute tone) "Rest assured, we will do everything in our power to keep our students safe."
The attention then shifted to Izumi, and both mentors observed him closely.
**Elite:** (addressing Izumi) "You are a perfect blend of your parents, Amane and Mihuru. You bear a striking resemblance to your father, yet your eyes hold the same captivating essence as your mother."
The acknowledgment of Izumi's unique combination of traits from his parents left him feeling both proud and humbled. It was a testament to the legacy of strength and love that had been passed down to him, and it filled him with determination as he prepared to face the challenges that lay ahead.
Myamura's words hung in the air, and the room fell into a stunned silence. His statement about Izumi's potential to become the 2nd generation legend left everyone in awe and disbelief.
**Myamura:** (with a sense of gravity) "I may be the 0th generation legend, and Amane is the first generation legend, but Izumi, you have the potential to surpass all of us and become the 2nd generation legend."
The weight of Myamura's words settled over the room, and all eyes were fixed on Izumi, who was processing this unexpected revelation. With a newfound determination and his domain activated, Izumi's dark yellow eyes shimmered with resolve. He turned to his family, a steely determination in his gaze.
**Izumi:** (with unwavering determination) "I will bring them back, and I promise you, tonight will mark the end of Sayo's chapter."
His words resonated with a sense of purpose that left no room for doubt. The family knew that Izumi was ready to face the challenges that lay ahead and that he would stop at nothing to ensure the safety of his loved ones and bring closure to the long-standing conflict with Sayo.
