When he heard what Daniel said, Ryan couldn't help but look at the second year and wonder what he wanted from him and why he was telling him all this, although if he was to be honest it sounded great, but then so far he had gotten to understand everything came with a price, he definitely wasn't telling all these things just because he wanted to show off that he was now the strongest second year.
"I have managed to look at your file and everything about you, so far I can tell you are just like me, a weak person who needs help to become stronger. From your file, even though you have a symbiote beast the rank is too low, to be honest, even if you spend hundreds of years your symbiote bloodline would still not be able to evolve, and you would still be just as pitiful as you are now."Daniel said.
"Right now, although you're only ranked 1 now, you are still young and could make better decisions with your youth, if you join me I can change everything for you, is it strength, wealth, and power? Whichever you desire.''Daniel said and pushed the grilled meat towards Ryan, and then brought out three tubes filled with red liquid before placing them in front of him to see.
"I know you hate how weak you are and definitely tired of being looked down upon and always seeking help from others, but then like I said before I can help you and this costs nothing but your loyalty. Although, just devouring a magical beast wouldn't let you evolve, but with one tube of this liquid you can finally get out of being a rank 1, and then with two tubes you can be a rank 3, I don't need to tell you what would happen if you take three tubes right?"Daniel said.
"Imagine what you could do with the strength of a rank 4 symbiote bloodline, at that point you would no longer be looked down upon and even your troubles of being bullied would also go away, and many would be in awe of your strength, not only that eventually you would graduate at that time, the academy would even give you a good grade, and then you could join a strong private organization, earn a good wage for the rest of your life, marry a hot strong chick as well and then have children who would be proud of you and your achievements," Daniel said with a light smile on his expression, as he said all these.
Ryan's eyes gradually became bright as he heard those words, he seemed like someone who was beginning to be interested since he was now staring at the grilled meat intensely and the three tubes that were placed in front of him, just like Daniel had said these things were all he needed to become reborn and evolve, what's more at this moment they were right in front of him, yet he couldn't accept them.
No matter how hard he tried to ignore it, the message was clear to him. On his side he just needed to make a choice, the decision he made would either give him these things that had been staring at him in the face long enough or would make them disappear and never to be seen, Ryan couldn't help but break out a smile while he was beginning to sweat.
It was needless to say, this was about becoming loyal to him, and betraying his friends like he did before, all of these meant his good and wonder friends would hate him but to honest why should he really care about his friends or how good they were to him, he had already betrayed them once doing it again wouldn't make any difference right, after all, they would come to forgive him when they were done being mad at him.
What of all those words the old man Quzin had said to him? Weren't they loads of bullshit, after all, what does he know about life? does he even know what it means to always suffer right from birth, being looked down upon, because they think you weren't smart enough, you weren't strong all this because he was weak, being weak from birth, the constant ridicule, the unnecessary hate for no reason, and being treated as a worthless leech who was constantly leeching off others, weren't all these enough to make him choose the life before him?
Yet, Ryan was not sure he could do what they wanted him to do, it wasn't that he couldn't accept their demand but just that he had finally seen the light, the light were his friends that was his moral binding, binding the last shred of his heart and holding him back from doing what he would regret, he sat there with complicated emotions in his heart, it was the perfect opportunity for him to do as they demand and become strong yet he was hesitating.
Why? Because he knew he would never find such good friends again.
While he sat there many questions appeared on his mind, questions he was unsure about and had no answers but wanted answers to, was he supposed to trust the second years? the same people who had tricked him and gone back on their words, he couldn't help but think about Bernard at this point, as he thought of him he remember that day Bernard had saved him from those rank 2's, he wasn't strong yet he knew how to fight and could beat up a rank 2.
If he was to be him in this situation, what would he do? He was the only rank 1 he had seen that was weak yet so brave and fearless, but why was he the only one the second years wanted, wasn't it because he was so easily deceived and Bernard wasn't? Wasn't it because even in dark situations Bernard was always brave and fearless, as he thought up to this point it suddenly hit him hard as realization dawned on him.
What if he could be like Bernard? Become brave and fearless like him, don't give a fuck about symbiote bloodlines, and train with beast weapons instead, Ryan suddenly raised his head and began to laugh, while Daniel and Kanayo were wondering what he was laughing at and why he was laughing, that was when they saw him raise his right hand and then his middle finger stood up like a sore thumb, as he said something to them and that was the last thing he did before his consciousness faded away.
"Go fuck yourselves. I won't betray my friends again."
