"Brrrr… Are we there yet? I am freezing here."

A shivering Zywia complained as Su-Min chimed in, "Me too."

"Me three now pick up your pace, the faster we move faster we would reach there."

Zywia sighed at Ryuu's words as she spoke, "Yes yes, let us move faster with the hope the future me is not as much frozen as the current me."'

Frost Flames rolled her eyes at that as she spoke, "Well as long as you are in this level I doubt you would be entirely free from freezing, but at least if you hurry up we might return to the warmer caves faster."

Zywia pouted before she increased her speed she spoke in a mocking voice towards True-Spear, "keep up or I will leave you behind."

True-Spear's eyes narrowed at that as he chased after her, but as Zywia neared Ryuu she whispered to him with seriousness in her voice, "Ryuu pick up your speed, I have something that I wish to discuss with you."

Ryuu raised one of his brows curiously as he increased his speed and within a few minutes the duo had created a great distance between them and the others.

"So what do you wish to say sister Zywia?"

Zywia bit her lips before she spoke with a frown, "Brother Ryuu as you can see that True-Spear and I wish to further explore our relation."

Ryuu shrugged at that as he spoke, "Well congratulations on that, though why are you telling me with such a serious look on your face?"

Zywia sighed as she spoke, "Our families are old, extremely so, as such we are both expected to uphold moral obligations, status and honour that come along with it, and I do not think that my family would agree with forming any sort of relationship with him."

Ryuu frowned at that as he spoke, "I would like to correct you on a few things though, my teachers' family and your family are ancient, not mine, even though my teachers' have raised me since I was a child, my only family is dead."

Zywia nodded at that as she spoke, "True, it might be so but blood does not make you a family and you know it well, you might say you are not a family but you treat them as such, you love them as such and you would die for them as such am I wrong."

Ryuu simply shook his head with a smile on his face, "No you are right, the only thing that I do not share with them is my blood."

"On top of that you are their legacy, their life works being taught to you, so even after you deny everyone will view you as their child."

Ryuu nodded in acceptance as he spoke, "So what do you want me to do?", his eyes widen as he spoke with disbelief, "Do not tell me that you want my help to elope, well I have never helped someone run from their home, I believe seeking my sisters' help would be prudent, they have experience on that matter."

Zywia scowled at that as she punched him playfully on his shoulder as she spoke, "No you will help me convince them about True-Spear's character and that he is a good and loyal choice."

Ryuu frowned at that as he spoke, "Why do you think that your family might not approve of your relationship?"

Zywia sighed at that as her face gained a melancholic look on her face as she spoke, "Ryuu, compare my family with him and tell me does he have any chance to court me."

"No Zywia, he will not have any chance your brother would be a big hindrance, not to mention I do not know how your family would treat him, someone who does not believe has as much backing of powers as us."

"My parents would not care about someone's status as long as he has something unique, and True-Spear does not have something unique except he loves me, he does not have a Divine body nor does he have anything extraordinary, except he is a strong cultivator but there are others that are superior to him in every respect."

"Even compared to us his spirit veins are trash, I doubt my parents would spare a glance at someone having only 63 spirit veins, while I was born with 72 and after certain someone operated I now have all 81 of them."

Ryuu scratched his chin a bit that as he was reminded about a similar operation he had undergone when he was a child, his 108 was changed to 169, and he still remembered how painful the whole process was.

"Maybe he is trash compared to us but at least he is hardworking, you have to give him that, Zywia"

"True, but as climb up higher even a single Spirit Veins would make a difference between moving up a rank and not."

Ryuu could only not solemnly at that, it was simply mathematics in reality, the more the taps the faster it would fill the bucket, and he was blessed with having a rather large number of them.

"His future would not look so bright if you look from your parent's position no matter how much he might claim to love you and you return the claim, no parent is going to let their only daughter marry someone whose future does not look great."

Zywia nodded at that as she spoke with a small humourless chuckle, "Let alone accept him they would accuse him of trying to be a gold digger, using my family's resources and reputation for his gain."

Ryan looked up towards the sky as he could not help but ask out a question that had been in his mind out loud, "Zywia I might sound annoying asking the same question over and over again but are you sure he is the right person for you? Are you sure that he is not using you?"

Zywia gave him a dazzling smile as she spoke, "I am sure Ryuu, I am more than sure that True-Spear loves me as Zywia and not because who my parents are."

Ryuu nodded at that as he spoke, "Well fair enough though please do not take some rash decision in your relationship at least while you are still in this place."

Zywia nodded at that as she spoke with a frown, "So what about you and Frost, you seemed to be willing to explore a relationship with her yet you are hesitant."

Ryuu closed his eyes for a moment before he spoke with a sigh, "I do not know Zywia, a part of me wants to pursue any relationship that might be possible with her, but at the same time I am afraid as well as I feel a bit disgusted at the idea."

Zywia tilted her head as she spoke with confusion in her voice, "Disgusted? I can understand the feeling of fear but disgust sorry but can you elaborate please."

Ryuu ran his hand through his hair as he began to speak, "Well I do not know, but I was married in my last life you know, I was married to the most awesome and fearless woman, I have so many memories with her in my head, it just feels so wrong to be with someone who is not her."

Zywia placed a comforting squeeze on his shoulder as she spoke, "Well this is a new life, not your old one, those people you knew are all dead, you have a different family, different values everything is different because this is a new life, so you should start anew instead of chasing after dreams that might never happen again."
