333 First meeting present
It was a game changing offer for Elliot.
He may have access to incredible new universe energies in the form of his Cosmic Dragon Energy. He may also have access to Ascendant Runes that made him ridiculously overpowered.
But at that moment, he knew that he was hopelessly defenseless should Primals disregard all costs and decide to go after him.
“You don’t have to accept her offer if you’re only looking to get a Primal to watch over you. I alone am sufficient for that purpose.” Primal Alexander’s voice appeared in his mind as though he was reading it like a book.
Elliot nodded at him gratefully.
If he had Primal Alexander’s protection, then answering Primal Lilian’s offer would be simpler. It would merely be a question of cost and benefit.
“You must be wondering what being my disciple entails.” Primal Lilian said gently.pᴀɴᴅᴀ-ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ.ᴄᴏᴍ
Elliot nodded.
“I have never taken a disciple before. And frankly speaking, before I saw what you did to your bear, I did not intend to.
As such, I do not have a set way of dealing with disciples, nor do I want to make one.
I am offering you to become my disciple because I want our fates to intertwine. How that takes form in real life will depend completely on you.
You can stay with me, or you can roam the universe, you decide.
As your master, I am prepared to teach you, guide you, protect you and open up doors for your success.
As my disciple, all you have to do is receive all those things, and give me your loyalty. pᴀɴᴅᴀ ɴoᴠᴇʟ
In essence, I want us to become family, the way I was my teacher’s family.” Primal Lilian said privately to him.
Elliot could feel her sincerity, her vulnerability, and her feelings for her own teacher which was bleeding over to the feelings that she was starting to form about him.
He found it a little bit strange that she could feel so strongly about him after only seeing a single act of kindness, but he suspected that she was probably very lonely, suspecting every new person who comes her way, suspecting every act of kindness she received, wondering if they were only so to get to her blood.
Seeing someone who actually got one and then giving it away so generously to his beast was probably a very, very refreshing breath of fresh air for her.
“I never had a master before, so I don’t know how that works. But I do have family. And I know how that works very well. If you become my family, then my family will be your family as well. I have two twin sisters. Will you accept them as family as well?” Elliot asked calmly.
He thought that it might be a little ridiculous attaching conditions to what must be a spectacular offer from a spectacular Primal, but he really thought that family members have to take care of each other.
It would be weird if he got himself a strong, Primal level family member but his sisters didn’t. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
He had no idea that his outrageous question was making every single living being in that massive arena boil with anger, indignation and disbelief!
“He got offered to be a disciple of Primal Lilian herself, and he wants her to take his twin sisters, no less, to be disciples as well? Is he f***ing retarded?”
“What a greedy little punk! He wants to suck Primal Lilian dry! Who does he think he is? I wouldn’t be surprised if she smacked his head off his neck right here and now! I know I would!”
“Ridiculous. I can’t believe such an outrageously greedy boy exists. To think that he is the only one that carries the new universe’s energy right now. What in all of heavens is lady luck thinking, gifting him with such great fortune?”
However, none of their opinions mattered.
The only person whose opinion matter was instead looking at him with a pleasantly surprised look on her face.
“You have twin sisters?” Primal Lilian asked with a surprised smile. “Where are they? Of course if you become family, they would be my family as well. It would be strange if they didn’t, wouldn’t it?”
The lower jaws on the floor were joined by upper jaws at that moment.
Primal Lilian actually accepted his stupidly greedy condition! And she got herself not one, not two but three disciples! And all three from the same family!
Preposterous!
Preposterous!!!
Elliot smiled widely at Primal Lilian and glanced around the massive arena.
“I think it’s big enough.” Elliot mumbled before he took out his Dimensional Fortress.
“They are in this Dimensional Fortress. Let me get them out-”
“I see them. Here, let me bring them out for you.” Primal Lilian said and waved her hand lightly.
Whoosh.
Whoosh.
Elliot merely blinked once and at the next moment, Jennifer and Jessica appeared.
“Hey bro! You could have told us before you got us out. What if we were in the middle of you know… uh… cooking dinner?” Jennifer pouted at him.
“Yeah bro, you usually call first. What’s the hurry? And what’s with this weird place?” Jessica asked as she looked around.
Both quickly discovered Primal Alexander, Primal Lilian and Lady Balastiera.
“Hey, he looks quite handsome, doesn’t he?” Jennifer crept to Jessica’s side and whispered lightly through the side of her mouth.
“Hmmmmm. He is a bit lacking compared to big bro. His aura is quite weak too, he must be someone big bro just saved or something.” Jessica whispered back.
“Hahahaha! Hello girls! My name is Lilian Harkless. Don’t blame your brother, I was the one who brought you two out. I saw that you were both merely meditating, so I whisked you out of the fortress just like that. I am sorry! Here, let me give you two a first meeting present as a form of apology, and to say hi!” Primal Lilian said brightly and produced two vials of blood.
