MIGHT AS WELL BE OP
Chapter 39: Father and son talk

Anthony woke up feeling refreshed and unhappy at the same time.

Today was the day the academy opens but he didn't see his mother for an entire month.

He left his bed and went through his normal morning routine of bathing and admiring himself in the mirror.

After he was done, he went to the divine realm and saw they were all ready for a new life.

He nodded with a smile and with pride.

Then he threw ten bank cards at them, each taking one.

"That's a bank card containing one billion quark each, do some shopping before arriving at the Academy, with your new faces now, you can't wear such simple clothes and accessories, you have to wear clothes that match your faces and power" Anthony said with a smile on his face.

They were orphans, where could they see money to buy clothes that only rich people buy and wear.

Although with their current strength getting such clothes were as simply as breathing, it would still be taking their points in the Academy, as they couldn't move right now to make money outside the Academy, so Anthony was just helping because it was a simple matter.

Of course such money came from the system, money is also consider a resource, so he could covert his point into hard cash anytime he wishes.

Since it was just money, that didn't improve anything in his body or rank, the ten billion he withdrew didn't even put a dent on his expenditure at all.

They all thanked Anthony from the bottom of their hearts.

"That's enough, see you all in the Academy, remember I want to see you all in the class S and in the top ten when the ranking gets rearranged, of course one of you will have to fall out of the top ten, since i will always occupy the first rank, but if you feel you can defeat me, you are welcome to try" Anthony said with a devilish smirk

Of course none of them were delusional to think they could win against Anthony, they all had a smile of defeat on their faces.

Anthony snapped his fingers and they all disappeared from the divine realm.

All of them appearing in their respective houses or wherever they lived in place of the clone originally used to replace them.

Anthony also disappeared from the realm as he thought of his subordinate.

Anthony appeared in his room with a smile on his face and was startled as he saw his father sitting on his bed looking at him.

"What's with the smug on your face" he asked

Anthony coughed awkwardly while answering "nothing, nothing"

"You have been sneaking off for a while now, where have been going to, did you get a girlfriend without telling your father" Michael said with a smile

"Ohhh... My baby monster has finally grown up, he got a girl without even telling or confrontating me"

Michael was acting heart broken, anybody who saw him now would doubt he was the same 'Sword Saint'.

Of course there was no way Anthony would be going in and out of the divine realm without Michael noticing, he is a power house for a reason.

This was the reason Anthony used clones whenever he was going into seclucion.

But whenever he was just going in and out, he would not use a clone.

Anthony didn't know what to say to his father's acting that deserves an oscar.

"I have just been going training and hunting to hone my skill in real battle, training alone does nothing at all" Anthony replied

Michael frowned while saying, "it's good that you want to train but always notify me if you want to leave, the 'Forsaken cult' may have stopped for now but I'm sure they won't let you off, as they haven't killed you the biggest headace"

"Also the other families are restless right now because of your talent, they have been attacking our business for a while, so be careful as you would need security for any assassin they send" Michael concluded.

Anthony didn't really care about the other families in the human domain, if they went too far, he was sure his father and mother would take care of it, they just haven't moved cause they are still doing small things that was considered child's play

"How did you respond to the attack on the business" Anthony asked

Michael smiled and said "Simple, wipe out their own business, if they push it more, I will happily oblige and take it a step further"

Anthony could tell that his father wanted this war to happen, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry, other people would be trying to avoid this or just push it a bit then step back.

But his father was different, he wanted to use his son as an excuse to fight another family to extinction, this was just too funny

Of course Anthony didn't tell his father about the assassins he encountered, if he did his father might take it as an excuse to wage war on them, you can never be too sure with him.

This was an absurd concept in itself, but battle maniac are always the hardest to predict.

Anthony shook his head, wondering what kind of family he was born into.

They are loving one moment, acting funny and playful, but the next moment they are ready to wreck havoc.

He sent silent prayers to the other family incase they went and did more than they shouldn't have

"So tell me my dear son, how many elements do you have, you were using different types during the exam, you used fire, ice and space, lightning, do you have another my baby monster" Michael asked with stars in his eyes

"I only have as many as mother" Anthony said

"I don't believe you" Michael refused to believe such bullshit.

"Why spoil the fun father, you will see it soon" Anthony said with a smrik of suspense

"Also father stop calling me monster baby, that sounds weird" Anthony said

"Why should I, you are my monster baby aren't you, have you seen anyone with your talent around here" Michael said with a smirk.

Anthony's lips twitched, he was speechless

"But it sounds weird to me" Anthony replied

"This world has always been survival of the fittest, whoever has the bigger fist is right, if you want to change your name, you would have to defeat me in a spar or battle" Michael said as battle intent seeped out of his body

"So your plan is to battle your freakish son for your desires and see what he is hiding right?, indeed old people are always scheming, even against their own son" Anthony said

"I just want to check your progress, you have been cultivating too much, your rank basically flew to the heavens, I would have to spar for you to learn something" Michael said

"As if I would believe you, if I wasn't you son, you would refine me into a potion in other to take my talent from me" Anthony countered

Michael shook his head at his son's antics

"So when do you want us to leave for the Academy, we can leave now if you want us to"

Michael said

"Hmph, you just want to drop me off so you can go and battle immediately with your wife to test your new strength" Anthony said

Michael sighed and disappeared from Anthony's room, his son caught him twice in a row now, he had to run away.

Anthony shook his head, from what he saw from his father, it was as if his father was a sword in itself, he sat firm and unmoving but ready to make a move anytime.

He sighed at this monster of a father, then threw the thought out of his head.
