"What's happening?why is there so many question marks on his status."

Draven who was in conversation with vilran asked with displeased voice

Mana technician who was frantically typing on holographic scene answered with stuter.

"I..I-don't know sir, orb isn't showing any signs of malfunctioning, it's not supposed to happen unless the user is S rank."

Technician said and stared at Eric.

Eric didn't say anything and just looked at the screen expressionlessly.

"What are you saying does that mean he is S ranker!?"

Ryland stood up and pointed at Eric. Not him everyone else were stumped as well.

Silence until someone from the back whisperd.

"It is possible after all Drake also reached S rank one year after awakening."

Even if it was said in low voice, everyone else heard it clearly.

But before other could continue Eric intervined.

"It's because it's nature of my arcane power."

"Yes that could be the reason why orb isn't working!"

Mana technician from before shouted as he found a way to escape From problem.

But many of the people were not satisfied. Yet they couldn't do anything ethier, it was not like they could force the child of flame beast to tell them them about his status window.

"What now, since we can't see his status window, we will not be able to confirm who is worthy among the three to be appointed as hire until tournament of power."

It was triston Alastair incharge of family matters in innercity who asked this question.

Now all eyes were on Draven, Draven took a deep breath and declared.

"Since there are three candidates for position no one shall be appointed as hire until the tournament. Instead all the resources and responsibilities will be divided into three equal part. Anyone has problem with that!?"

Everyone nodded and left the place to attend their business.

Ryland, Allvar and Cynthia bid there farewell as well. But before leaving Richard gave Eric a part in shoulder and said with disdain.

"Let's see if you can be this nonchalant next time we meet."

Eric's POV

"What's his problem?"

I started at the Richard's back and thought.

"Don't be bothered by him, he's just really competitive."

"Hmm"

"So what are you going to do now?"

Father asked me but before I could answer.

"Grr.."

We both looked at the side and saw Edward holding his stomach with embarassed expression.

"Sorry I didn't eat breakfast today."

"That's okay, I was getting hungry as well. Eric you are coming with us as well."

Father suddenly grabbed me and Edward by forearm.

"Let's go!!"

And before I knew it we were already flying up in the air.

'But I wanted to train.' with these thoughts in my mind I was dragged to the west part of the city Famous four it's entertainment and food.

And before long they landed in front of white building, if you could call it landing though. There was big hole where they landed and dust was floating everywhere.

At the side Edward was holding his mouth trying hard not to vomit.

While Eric just laid on his back looking at all blue sky.

'I saw it. I saw how he moved!'

Those were Eric's thought.

'When he grabbed me and Edward I saw how he moved! Using fire to propel himself, that correct step & that correct amount of flames which last long enough to make him faster but not noticeable by others.'

Eric kept looking at the sky ignoring the worried voice of his father and brother.

"This is power?" He wondered aloud

'I was never able to see how he left, there was just one blink and he was gone. But now I can see! I never realised it how strong I have become but… but there is no control I have so much powers but I can't use them fully why? Just because I don't have control. This is not right I have to start training again!'

"Eric! Eric! was landing too hard for you son?"

Draven asked worridely

"Huh?" Eric looked up and saw Edward and Draven looking at him with concern.

Realising the situation he was in Eric got up and dusted his clothes.

"I'm fine."

"Are you sure. I have to say since you came back you have been acting rather wierd?"

Draven stared at Eric up and down with clear suspicion.

Eric looked at Draven and answered truthfully.

"I'm fine, I just feel like I am not in control."

Draven eyes widened slightly and then he burst into laughter.

"Hahahahaha, don't worry about it, I'm sure you will be even stronger than me in no time. Now let's go inside."

Eric nooded and looked at the building at front. It was restaurant but there was actually no one inside. Other than its huge entrance everything about this restaurant seems mediocre at best.

"Jack! come out and prepare some dishes for me will ya!"

Draven shouted so loud that everyone started looking at tthe trio. Just then a tanned skin middle aged man walked out of the restaurant. He was so big that compared to him Draven could only reach his waist.

"Huh!? Why are you here again, no scratch that. now that you are here don't think about leaving here alive!"

As Jack was threatening them, brown tendrils of mana started appearing around his body, putting an unimaginable pressure on trio.

Draven didn't shy away and released his own Aura as well, and red tendrils of mana appeared around his body. but he was careful enough to protect his sons from both his and Jack's aura.

Meanwhile Eric was looking at the man awestruck.

"Michael jack O'Brien! From O'Brien family."

Jack looked behind Draven and saw black haired kid staring at him.

"You know me kid?"

"son of one of the four pillar of Midgard the Michael O'Brien, the Giant. You are known as the second biggest giant in Midgard fallin short by couple of meters from your father, born in year 2175 by second mistress of your father, but in year 2200 you were exiled from your home to the city of fog the warpor city. Since then there has been there has been no news about you."

Eric inhaled deeply after he finished.

"Damn!I just asked if you knew me you didn't have to tell the whole history."

Jack said with surprised expression and retracted his aura.
