章節 12: Interlude

Jackson Sylph P.O.V

Jackson Sylph was a busy man. How could he not be, when he controlled one of the world's biggest companies. But even if he was a busy man he was also a family man. That was why he was so excited when he had heard his wife was pregnant. When she had eventually given birth it was the happiest day of his life.

Before his son had been born Sabrina had warned him that he may act diferently than normal children. But he still wasn't expecting it to be so drastic. He had expected to take time off work to help April raise the kid, but it seemed like that wasn't needed. It saddened him, not being able to be there most of the time as his own son grew up.

He thinks that's why he had agreed to his sons ridiculous requests. Out of guilt, for not always being there for him. Giving a child free access to a gravity room was a horrible idea. It could have gone wrong in so many ways, that he was very lucky his son was so mature.

Agreeing to give his son combat training was even more ridiculous, if less dangerous. Not to mention the logistics of it were horrible. The scythes them selves were easy enough to make Sure it took a few days, but all in all, making a scythe with a shaft and blade that grew as Daniel got bigger, wasn't the worst with Sylph Co.'s space folding technology. The worst part was getting into contact with his old friend's scyther.

After his friend had died his scyther had gone off into the woods to live on his lonesome. Normaly this wouldn't have been a problem if he wanted any old scyther, but his friends had reached the peak strength he could without evolving and was probaly the best scyther around at using the line's natural weapons.

Although he knew the general area of scyther's location he could have long wandered off to another area by that point. Eventually he had to ask Sabrina for help in finding scyther's location, something she was only willing to do to help out her student.

When they had eventually found scyther it took forever to convince him to come along, and the only reason they succeded was because scyther had heard that there might be someone out there as interested in scythes as him.

Although it was certainly a hastle, when he saw Daniel's smile at the gifts he knew it was worth all the effort and more.

When his son had asked for a battle tutor he was once more happy to comply. He ended up contacting an old friend who he knew was currently in the buisness. The only problem with this was that they happened to have a falling out a while ago. Because of this Peter was reluctant to agree at first, but after hearing how amazing a trainer his son was looking to turn out to be, and agreeing to keep their distance from each other, he had agreed.

The only problem, was that even after all these years he still felt distant from his son. And he was sad to say that it seemed that wasn't a thing that would be fixed any time soon. For now all he could do, was his best to support his son. Plus his company had recently been researching a few trainer products that he is sure his son would be happy to test out.
