9 THRONES

CHAPTER 6: I WILL WAIT FOR YOU

Luna was very surprised at Vann's words just now, she never thought that Vann was interested in becoming a cultivator. After all, Vann had attended school as a normal person until he was 17 years old like now, this meant that Vann had no interest in becoming a cultivator at all.

Everyone had the chance to become cultivators, no matter if they were rich or poor, as long as they had sufficient talent then they would definitely be accepted by the academy.

All the travel expenses towards the test site would be paid by the committee, so those who were interested in becoming cultivators only needed to come to the test site without needing to pay any fees.

After all what cultivators needed was not how much money they had, but rather how much talent they had. Because of this, everyone can get a chance.

But if they were not interested in becoming cultivators, they would not need to take any aptitude test.

The holder of the 4th throne is the one who made this rule before he lost his fighting spirit. According to the 4th throne holder, no matter how talented one was, as long as they were not interested in becoming cultivators then it was useless.

Slowly the shock on Luna's face immediately disappeared, she immediately understood the meaning of Vann's words through the stern look in her eyes now.

As a beautiful woman and the son of the 9th throne holder, in addition he also has an older brother who is an Emperor of 15 Emperors, and a younger brother, there are thousands of men who try to approach her for her background, talent or beauty. Therefore, Luna knew the meaning of Vann's words just now, because there were many men who expressed their feelings to her as Vann had just done even though what they said was different.

Despite knowing his purpose, Luna is not angry at all because she can find Vann's eyes to her not having any hidden purpose, Vann is purely fond of her because she is Luna.

A smile appeared on Luna's face "Are you sure? If you try to reach me or even become my partner, you must have enough strength. Even though my father didn't care who my partner was as long as it was a good man I chose myself, my brother had a tougher nature. He won't agree with me being with a man weaker than him, my brother having the power of an Emperor, are you sure you're still interested in trying to chase after me?".

Vann was not surprised by Luna's words. Not only that, Vann had from the beginning felt that he was now no match for Luna because Vann did not have the strength to protect her. Therefore, Vann was determined to become a strong cultivator until his strength was suitable to stand beside Luna.

Taking a breath, Vann replied firmly "I will still chase you! I may not have any proof that I can defeat your brother, but someday I will definitely have a stronger power than your brother. No, if it was for you, I would definitely try to become the throne holder though! Luna, don't you mind giving me a chance?".

Luna held onto Vann's face with a gentle smile "I love the determination you have in you, whether it's now or when you're trying to sacrifice your life against the Minotaur for your friends. Vann, listen to this carefully, I'm 12 now, you still have plenty of time. I'll be waiting for you! I don't know if you can become a great cultivator or not, but I'm sure that one day you will definitely become a cultivator that many people respect. Don't make me wait too long, Vann!".

Vann was surprised, thinking that Luna was the same age as him or even older because Luna looked too mature. But who would have thought that Luna turned out to be 5 years younger than him, he still had a chance of pursuing Luna's strength.

When Vann was about to say something again, Luna covered Vann's mouth by putting 1 finger in her mouth "No need to say anything more, when you become a cultivator, we are destined to meet again. Let's talk more when that time comes".

Without waiting for Vann's reply, Luna's figure jumped backwards and disappeared. With the power that Luna has, she can leave this place without Vann realizing it.

Looking at Luna who had already left, Vann strengthened the fist in his hand while saying full of determination "I must be a great cultivator, then we will meet again, Luna!".

...----------------...

At a place very far from the shelter area where Vann was just now, Luna's figure appeared above the sky.

Luna stood still above the sky while observing all the circumstances that were happening around her, after confirming that there were no more people threatened by the Minotaur like Vann, Luna decided to return to the Zodiac Academy. He was sent to overcome this sudden attack of the Minotaur along with some other students from the Zodiac Academy, now his task here is done.

Just as Luna was about to leave, the figure of a woman around 20 years old appeared behind Luna. This woman had long red hair that looked fiery, her eyes were also a red color that was very similar to Vann's.

Luna looked at this woman behind her, she immediately learned that this woman who appeared was 1 out of 15 Emperors as well. More precisely, this woman was sent by her father since Luna started cultivating to take care of her.

But over time, they got closer to being like a sister rather than a miss and her bodyguard.

"I don't know either, I just feel like Vann has something different from all the other guys I've ever met. Maybe someday, he could really become an Emperor or even a throne holder like my father. Besides, I feel Vann is a bit like Millennium Uncle", after saying that, the figure of Luna flying away went back to the Zodiac Academy quickly.

The woman who was keeping Luna frozen in the air due to Luna's last words, she stared in the direction where Vann was and shook her head "No, it shouldn't be possible, it must be just a coincidence".

Not wasting any more time, the woman flew after Luna.

...----------------...

5 Hours later, Vann walked back to where he lived.

He was in the shelter for a long time because they were not allowed to leave by the guards there until all the monsters were cleared, so Vann could only return home now.

In the shelter area earlier, Vann met Anto and Sania as well, they immediately ran towards Vann and thanked him when they met him.

When he met them again, Vann did not care at all for those who had abandoned him while he was fighting the Minotaur at school, what Vann had in mind now was only the figure of Luna that he could not forget. So, Vann was not angry towards them anymore, but Vann was not interested in continuing to talk a lot with them as well.

Arriving home, Vann found a man about 40 years old with short red hair who was sitting in the dining room of the villa

This man had almost the same face as Vann, except he who looked older.

Knowing that Vann had returned home, the man stopped his busy hand from picking up food at the "Vann table, have you returned? Dad made fried rice for lunch, let's eat! I heard your school had a monster attack today, luckily you were able to return unharmed".

This 40-year-old man is indeed Vann's father who has been protecting and caring for him since Vann was 5 years old.

Vann said directly to his father "Dad, I plan to quit school and become a cultivator!".

The smile on Vann's father's face froze, after which Vann saw something shocking.

Since living with his father for 12 years, Vann has never seen his father angry. That said, Vann's father was always smiling.

But Vann's father's face now turned cold, there was a trace of anger in his voice "Dad doesn't mind you trying to be anything, be it employees, teachers, athletes, actors and all the rest. However 1 thing that father would never agree to, father will not allow you to become a cultivator! You can be anything but a cultivator!".

Vann was a little in disbelief, he had never seen the face of his father who became angry like this.
