Days quietly passed. Because of the attack from the governnt, it caused quite a lot of destruction in the clan. Many of the mbers were injured and nurous properties were destroyed.
In the hospital owned by Kalin Family, two people visited one of the patients.
"Jas, Uncle Charlie will be fine," Taro patted the boy’s head. "He just needs so rest because of overwork."
Jas nodded his head quietly. His eyes were locked onto the bed where Charlie lay. The man was still unconscious and there was an IV connected to him. His face was pale, but he was still breathing.
"I want Uncle Charlie to play with again," Jas sulked a bit.
Taro sat down as he watched his brother on the bed. When he heard the news that his brother was safe, he was ecstatic. However, upon seeing his brother lying on the bed like this, he felt his heart was crushed to pieces.
He was already used to seeing Charlie’s smug smile and stern expression. After all, this man was soone whom their family raised so strictly along with his older brother. If soone were to say the person who could follow those rules without batting an eyelid, he would point to Charlie. Aside from the fact that he didn’t have any talent in marketing, he was the one who followed the rules the most.
"He’ll surely recover and play with you again," Taro replied somberly.
Jas nodded his head. "I hope that Uncle Charlie can recover."
"Yes."
Taro flicked his gaze to the television. Just yesterday, he watched the news report about the fall in the Doha Family’s stock market. It was so serious that nurous people have to quit and search for other jobs. Right now, the Doha Family was in tatters.
He sighed deeply to himself. The previous proud and unyielding young master has gone. Replacing it was a mature young man, who determined that he would never do the sa mistake ever again.
’If I have the chance, I’ll rebuild the family.’
It might be an inconvincible dream. With the Wells Family at the forefront and Nali Family behind them, the Doha Family stood no chance. However, he didn’t want to abandon this dream. At the very least, he wished that his family could recover.
"Uncle Taro, where are the others? Brother Kevin and Sister Kanae say that they’re busy," Jas pulled Taro’s clothes.
Taro nodded his head. "They’re quite busy right now, so they can’t co here. Don’t worry. They’ll co to visit later."
"Mhm," Jas pursed his lips. He fixed his gaze on his uncle, unwilling to leave it to that.
Taro didn’t say anything else. Today is the funeral day for Master Rudy. Those two must have gone there for the ceremony. He couldn’t possibly pull them to co here just because of Jas. After all, Master Rudy was an important figure in their heart.
...
In the funeral, Kevin and the others were standing in front of a grave. Written at the tombstone was the phrase that described Master Rudy the most.
’The most unyielding man who fought his place in the rotten area of Black Street and the master of famous fighters in the city.’
Standing at the forefront was Patrick. He was the first disciple that Master Rudy ever accepted and grood. Ever since he was young, he had learned a lot of things from Master Rudy to the point that he morized them all.
"You’re truly a selfish master," Patrick opened his mouth. "Deciding on things without consulting others, fighting recklessly, not caring about others, you’re truly the most inconvincible master."
Others: "..." those descriptions could also apply to you.
Patrick shook his head lightly. "Still, you’re the best master in the world. I never regret the day I’m eting you even though you nearly killed in that exchange."
Dean chuckled. "He always did that in the past. Everyone who t with him and survived in the exchange has the chance to beco his disciple. However, not everyone accepted the notion."
"I know," Patrick rolled his eyes. "I have followed after him for years and walk on the path that he paved for . There’s no way I don’t know how he recruited Matt and you."
"You miss our little junior, though," Dean pointed at the back.
Patrick followed Dean’s finger and saw Kanae stood beside Kevin. The only disciple he missed was Kanae. They t in the most peculiar situation he could ever imagine. At the sa ti, it was the eting that left him awestruck because of the power she had.
He turned his gaze back to the grave. "Anyway, this is our parting, Master. I wish you happiness in the other world out there."
"This is not a parting for , Master," Dean looked at the grave. "You’re the most unpredictable master that I ever t. Because of you, I suffered countless tis in the past because of the weird training that you subjected ."
Others: "..." why did it sound you’re cursing your master?
"However, they’re all important phases of my life. Without your training, I can never beco who I am right now. It’s my foundation to overco the obstacle on the street and beco the leader of the strongest group –eh previous strongest group."
Kanae shook her head slightly. After a long ti, it seed that her senior still couldn’t get over the fact that she took the title from him. Even though it was Dean who allowed her to take the title, the man didn’t really want to acknowledge it.
Kevin glanced at Kanae. "Don’t you want to send your final ssage to your master?"
"There’s no need," Kanae replied. "I have told him everything that day."
Kevin glanced at Kanae’s serene expression and didn’t say anything else. On that day, she had reminisced about everything regarding her master, so she would not repeat them anymore.
If she had to summarize, she would just say two sentences.
"He’s the best master in the world," Kanae murmured to herself. Her eyes were staring at her master’s face. "Thank you for being there for , Master."
The other two still chatted a bit more in front of the grave. They talked about their past and their ti with Master Rudy.
When it was evening, a car ca to the place. From inside, a man with a suit ca out.
Patrick stared at the man. "Matt, you’re late."
"I can’t skip my work," Matt replied with a wry smile. "Sorry Master, I can’t co earlier."
"You’re talking about your work with the governnt?" Dean crossed his arm. "Why don’t you co when they’re attacking the Ryukalin Clan, Matt?"
Matt paused for a mont. "I’ll talk with you all after we left this place. But for now, I just want to focus on Master."
"It’s fine with ," Patrick nodded his head.
Matt glanced back at Kanae and Kevin. "In the discussion, I hope that they can be there too."
Kanae was stunned, but she nodded her head. By her side, Kevin stayed silent and didn’t reply.
