Ryuu leaned on the pillow with a sake cup in his hand, a rather beautiful dance and song was being played in front of him but his mind was elsewhere.

A nudge from Maheswara brought him out of his senses who spoke scowl, "What is it brat? You have yet to touch your sake and your food, and that is unlike you."

Ryuu sighed before he spoke, "Nothing I was just thinking was it wise to leave like that, when we return they would murder us."

Maheswara simply snorted as he spoke, "When it happens, it happens there is no need to lose your pretty little head on this matter."

Ryuu looked at him as he spoke with seriousness in his voice, "But, still why you always seem to make them angry to the point where they wish to skin you alive and then boil your innards."

Maheswara stared at his cup for a moment before he spoke, "Truth or a joke."

"I would love the Truth, please."

With a nod Maheswara began to speak, "You see when I get them angry I do receive a tremendous amount of pain, but their face, when they are angry, is so otherworldly that I know anyone would give an arm and leg for it."

Meanwhile, Ryuu simply deadpanned as he thought, 'Yeah teacher is right, there face is so otherworldly that I would give an arm and leg and hope I am not in their crosshairs, a few parsec distances between me and them would also be appreciated.', as he thought about the time his teachers were angry with him a chill went down his spine, while he winced being reminded the number of times he was thrashed by them.

But, Maheswara did not notice his reaction as he continued to speak, "But do you know the best part."

Ryuu shook his head taken aback at the giddiness in Maheswara's voice as he spoke, "No teacher."

"The makeup s.e.x is…"

Ryuu dropped the cup as he placed his hand over his ears, as he spoke with a disgusted look in the face, "Stop stop, please stop giving me such a disgusting mental image, eww just eww, you dirty old man, I so do not want to hear about it."

All he received was a loud guffaw of laughter which soon vanished as Mahesawara spoke in a serious tone, "Ryuu since I have told you the truth I believe now it is your turn to tell me what is eating you up."

Ryuu bit his lips as he began to speak, "I loved her you know, I loved her very much even after all this a part of me wishes that it was all a nightmare that I would like to wake up, a part of me is glad that I have dealt her with extreme prejudice, yet again a small part hates myself for killing her in a cruel way, it is screaming at me for not trying to find a way where she could be alive, where it might have been that she was compelled in some way."

Maheswara frowned as he spoke, "I see, logically what should you do then."

"Forget and put the entire incident behind me, but it is so hard, every little thing reminds me of her the time I spend with her, I do not know what to do."

The duo sat quietly for a moment before Maheswara spoke, "I do not know how you are feeling because I have never felt such emotions, neither do I have the endure such experience, but the closest person who felt it was Sylvana, the blushing bride whose would-be husband betrayed her on the day of her wedding, she was cut down by him when they were taking the vows."

"Just after the incident she was like a zombie, unable to even show proper emotions, it was such a mess, but he was way older than you Ryuu, compared to her you are but a child and I hate it to see you suffer through the same fate and emotions."

"Love, love is a wonderful emotion that many do not even have the luck to experience, I am one of the lucky few who have received the love of such fine women, my son Pangu even so, but none of my children ever did, Antariskh is too vain and prideful to even consider someone her equal, Sylvana after the incident never let anyone in her heart, and as for Shamiran because of her constitution there is no man or woman who can get along without dying of poison."

The duo sat in silence for a moment before Ryuu spoke again, "I got intimate with her."

As Maheswara gained a curious look on his face Ryuu hurriedly explained to him, "We never had intercourse, but that one time it got very close, she tried for it and I gave into my l.u.s.t, but the only reason I stopped before it went too far was that I was suddenly reminded of how angry my teachers would be for breaking their edict and I stopped."

He took a deep breath before he continued as tears of shame pooled in his eyes, "But, I feel so dirty and I fill so ashamed for letting her touch me, I just I just simply wish if I can replace my skin, it I…"

Maheswara let go of his cup as he drew him into a hug, while Ryuu began to weep profusely, even if he felt his clothes getting damped, Maheswara did not let go of him as he gently began to pat him trying to console Ryuu who held him like a lifeline.

Maheswara spoke, "You know child if there is anyone is to be blamed for it, then it is us that you should blame, after all, we are the ones that failed to prepare you properly, and we are the ones who failed to train you against seduction."

As Ryuu looked up to protest as Maheswara was greeted by the red-eyed face of Ryuu, which made his heart clench, but he held firmly as he prevented him from it as he began to speak, "No no Ryuu, we are the one who had failed to properly instruct you, if we had then you would not have had to suffer so much, if we had then you would not have to feel so much pain."

He gently wiped out Ryuu's tears as he spoke, "Ryuu, you have grown up into a great cultivator but you're a finer man as such you feel pain for your deceased lover, but you should not blame yourself for her death since you did not murder her."

Ryuu breath hitched as he spoke with anger bleeding into his voice, "What are you saying teacher? I killed her, I squashed her dantian then pulled out her spirit branches with my bare hand before setting up her aflame, I watched as she screamed for mercy while turning to ashes."

Maheswara shook his head as he spoke, "No my child, my son, the woman who made you felt so much love and care for and reciprocated in kind could not be the one who had betrayed you, but the thing that betrayed you was the one who wore that woman's face, and that creature was the one who killed your love, as such son you never murdered the one you loved."

Once again silence descended in the room which was broken occasionally by Ryuu's hiccups from time to time while Maheswara simply held him trying to console him.

'At least I managed to get it out of his chest for now and with the help of my family we will heal him.'

Later that day Maheswara laid Ryuu on his bed, the entire time was mentally and physically exhausting to him and after a few more cups of alcoholic beverage, Ryuu had fallen asleep.

Maheswara looked at him with a melancholic smile on his face before he whispered out, "Have a nice sleep child."

With that, he left the room only to be ambushed by Veena, "There you are how co…", whatever she was going to say was stuck in her throat as she looked at Maheswara's face, it had been so long since she had seen that look, the look that made her unconsciously take a step back as a look of fear briefly passed through her face.
