Chapter 54 - Life and Death/End and Beginning

The sun was slowly rising slowly approaching noon. The students in Orchid Academy began to slowly converge. Each student going to their designated rooms. The most talented class this year was in room 1 of the main building. They were the successors of the most powerful nobles and factions as well as the most talent commoners from the general schooling system.

The students walked in began to take their seats. Ye Ziyun was setting next to the window on the very first row. Next to her cave Shen Yue. The younger brother of Chen Linjian sat in the second row followed by a group of his noble lackeys. Xiao Ning from the wind dragon family sat near the entrance opposite side from Ye Ziyun. The couple of chairs around her were empty. She was known as the cold beauty and always seemed aloof making her unapproachable by everyone.

Du Zhe was setting in the row behind Xiao ning. Next to him was Wei Nan, Zhang Ming, and Zhu Xiangjun. They were much stronger than without Danny's interference due to the schools, training halls, and resources provided by the Commoners Union. To Du Zhe's group, Danny was a hero that provided them a chance to shine. He also protect their families making the commoner's district and slums the safest area in Glory city.

In the middle column 3rd row Nie Li was setting with his head lying on his arms on the desk staring through the window. Thanks to the Commoners Union the Nie Family broke free from being under the Hong Yue family. They joined the prodanny faction and were supported by both the alchemy and Snow wind family. The resources were enough for them to purchase the soul force cultivation skill spread by the Commoners Union. This allowed Nie li and many other youths in the family to reach the silver rank.

The last student entered the room and in the only empty seat in the last row of the first column(same side as du zhe). The teacher entered the room she was a sėxy woman with red hair. This teacher was Shen Xue the aunt of Shen yue. Once she went towards her desk, Nie li eyes shut for a moment. The rebirth of the future Nie li began....

**********

In the empty place Danny was fighting the Chosen, Near the eastern gate.

Time seemed to have slowed down. Danny's life flashed before his eyes as the blade was approaching his neck. He saw his mother, she would feed him a lot and take him to the library. He saw when she died, the terrible feeling he had. The tough life he lived in the wilderness. The first time in five years he ever slept on a bed in the Snow wind family. The many life and deaths fight. The improvement of humanity thanks to his appearance.

Then images of those important to him began to appear. Ay, Ye Yan, Ye Mo, Ye Zhong, Ziyun. His three thousand brothers lead by Ye Ren, Akuma, Falcon, and Chen Linjian. As he looked through them all he saw two people he thought he wouldn't see. His father from his previous life and the vague image of his mother That he only knew through pictures. He then began to see his previous life backwards from the time he died absurdly to when he was 3 years old setting next to the window in the hospital room. His father was yelling at the nurses and doctors to save his wife. The procedure had low levels of success and was pricy that they couldn't afford it. This was a memory Danny kept deep inside.

As he look at the scene in front of him he heard his mothers voice. This was the first time he felt that he actually forgot something as this moment felt new to him. The memory was always in his mind but it was hidden.

"Little Danny, You have always been a nice boy. Can you do your mom one last favor?"

The young Danny nodded his head.

"I want you to take care of your father and make him proud of you. I want you to always help people when you can. I know that you my little boy will become a leader of your time. Just remember that this sad moment is only temporary. So try your best and live with no regrets can you do that for mommy."

"Mom that's more than one thing but I'll try."

Danny saw his mother smile at these words then the scene changed to her funeral a few days later.

The knife was still moving time really slowed down for Danny to be able to see all that.

Danny tightened his grip on his spear as he eyes looked peaceful. He didn't want to regret anything so he will take this person down with him.

"Ay I'm sorry I couldn't make you your body and Ye Yan hide in the spear this way you live to teach the next generation."

Danny's spear began to move to the last Chosen member's ċhėst. Just when both people were going to strike each other. Spacetime froze for a fraction of a second. Danny's body that was already use to the elemental change in the environment adapted so it was not affected. Instantly noticing this anomaly, Danny took advantage of the change and moved his body to the side while grabbing the wrist of his enemy holding the blade. Then as if it never happened time began to move again and Danny's spear struck his enemy while the blade missed his neck.

After killing the last person Danny couldn't what happen. If every legend rank got this break of a second at critical moments then their survival was ensured. A legend rank can move 100s of meters in a second. For spacetime to freeze for a fraction of that was enough for him to move to the side dodging the blow.

He could help but yell," hahahahaha even the heavens doesn't want me to die. I still alive and kicking Hahahaha!"

"Danny your piece of shit why did you scare me like that. Come in your mind so I can beat you up!" Ay yelled.

"Hahaha I really glad your alive Danny. Looks like we really should go get those techniques from that Nie boy." Ye Yan said excitedly.
