As I said this Roman looked towards Lu Xiaoran who was silent until now, I think he was contemplating something but nonetheless he starts talking about his life getting slightly emotional on some topics, but after he told me all of his story I came to a realization. FU#K his story is just like a story of a protagonist who was weak getting stronger after getting some opportunity and beating the villain who bullied him when he was weak.
In-fact the fiancée of villain after sometime fall in love with the protagonist joining his harem which he will surely build in future. This story is similar to a web novel story written by some Chinese writer in fact Lu Xiaoran's enemy is named Lin Chen and that is the most common protagonist name.
After telling me his whole story Lu Xiaoran looked towards me with expectant eyes and did something unexpected, he got on his knees bowed down to me and said, "I don't who are you or what are? Maybe you are a demon beast or some kind devil or something worse. But for me you are my savior who saved my life I can not ever able to repay for this kindness of yours. But as hopeless loser I am I still asked shamelessly for more help please help in getting stronger, help me to see my mother again, and to take revenge on that Lin Chen."
Saying that he fell silent still on his knees bowing to me. Sigh! sighing I strained my body and said, "Boy look straight towards me."
He flinched a little but did as he I said, he moved his head up while still on the knees. He looked towards me there for a second our eyes meet and his eyes I saw someone who is lost, lost in path of his of life he accepted his defeat and lost himself. But his not totally lost he still has a fire inside of him to regain what he had lost to meet his family again to get his revenge on people who is responsible for his condition.
He is someone who is looking towards me with hope. He reminds me of my past after my parents died in that pandemic, I was also like him lost in grief of losing my family not able to find any goal after that luckily, I was able to cope with that situation but from the looks of him he had worst situation than me as he was almost died if hadn't saved him.
In that moment of eye contact I decided that I will help him, I will show him right path in his life. So, I said to him, "boy you want many things but have nothing to return, why do you think I should help you?"
Hearing this he flinched a little but then with gritted teeth he said, "I don't have anything to give to you I am just a loser who is lost everything he had but I promise that once I had my revenge my everything will be yours."
Replying to him I said, "think carefully boy. What if after helping you I demand your life or your soul or worst if demand you kill your loved ones to sacrifice their life to me did you have courage to kill your mother who you desperately wanted to meet when you are dying."
Hearing this he shivered as if someone poured a bucket of ice water on him. He looked at me with a look of animosity as if he will fight me to death and said, "you can have anything but not my loved ones."
Feeling a little amused I said in a cold tone, "what if I still want that?"
Then he said, "then I will fight you and make sure you would not be able to hurt my family."
seeing his determination I smiled and said, "that's the spirit boy this is the thing that one should have. Listen, Lu Xiaoran I would not help you to take your revenge but I will make sure that you will get the most important thing you need right now."
listening to my reply he felt confused and said, "what is that thing that need most? I sit some kind of power or some kind of rare opportunity?"
Hearing his words I laughed internally, because now u felt like a sage who teaches a person and help a person to take correct path in his life, I think this would be my first step towards becoming a sage. I replied to him, "no what you need most is hope. A hope that you will able to overcome all these difficulties and rise again higher than before. And I will make sure that you would never lose hope."
After saying this I waited for his response he looked like contemplating about his life choices but then he showed a determined expression and said, "I understand now." Then he bowed deeply and said "master please accept me as your disciple."
??? I felt confused for a second but before I could reply something more strange happened I heard a voice in my mind.

I internally screamed not this again.
