Lord of the Truth



"...Jabba?" Robin narrowed his eyes and titled his head slightly as he studied the young man's features

In fact, there were no signs of resemblance between the handsome young man sitting on the ground in front of him and the Nihari Giant General Jabba. Had Robin not entered the tent psychologically prepared that he was coming to visit Jabba, he would not have scrutinized his features and recognized him!

"Master, you are awake!!" Jabba quickly stood up with a big smile on his face at Robin's voice and almost jumped to hug his master, but he seemed to remember something so he stood up again and gave a deep bow, "Thank you. I will never forget your kindness as long as I live."

"...Hurry and get up, what are you doing?" Robin spoke unconsciously, but he did not move to pick up Jabba. He even forgot to ask him what happened to him, only his eyes began to shine with a faint golden glow, trying to deduce anything from what he sees right now.

"If it were up to me, I would remain bowed before you for another hundred years, because thanks to you, I finally have-- Ah!!" When Jabba finally raised his back to look at his master's face, he screamed violently, then put both his hands over his eyes and quickly threw his head back.

"Jabba! Are you okay?! What's wrong with your eyes?" Finally, Robin regained some of his focus, so he took a few steps quickly and went to check on his disciple

When Robin entered the tent, he saw Jabba's eyes glowing green. That glow reminded him of something for a moment, but he decided to ignore that possibility since it was almost non-existent.

"I'm... Fine, I'm fine.." Jabba began rubbing his eyes vigorously. 

The soul-piercing pain that suddenly attacked him made someone like him who had stepped on countless corpses scream like a little girl. At that moment, he felt as if someone had poured lava into his eyes!

"What was that? What happened to you?" Robin asked again, his golden eyes still roaming over his student's body like crazy

"No, not at all. The pain has subsided now. Perhaps my body has not yet become accustomed to the new capabilities of my eyes..." Jabba slowly removed his hand from his eyes and tried to look at his teacher's face again. 

This time his eyes returned to normal and the green glow disappeared and he finally could see his master's golden eyes that he had seen countless times before, he shook his head with a sarcastic smile when he made the connection, "It seems there are a few things I'm not allowed to spy on..."

That terrifying pain that struck Jabba was when his fully activated eyes met the eyes of his master, and yet he was the one who fell in pain while his master did not even realize what had happened.

"Jabba, don't leave me guessing, what's going on with you? What's wrong with your eyes and why is your body like this? Did the Tree Father do something to you during the fight?"

Jabba smiled big when he heard Robin's questions. He looked like a little boy who had drawn a beautiful drawing and wanted to show it to his father for the first time, "Please look into my eyes." With that, Jabba lowered his head slightly to look at Robin's chest and again activated the green glow in his eyes.

Robin furrowed his eyebrows slightly at Jabba's actions, but nevertheless, he listened to what he was saying and began to examine his student's eyes, but soon he opened his eyes to the end and took a step back, "Is this the Initial Eye of Truth?!"

He said it himself but still did not believe it, he heard the words he said and did not believe that he said them... The green glow coming from Jabba's eye now was filled with vague, featureless patterns. Although he could not extract a single specific pattern from it, this was not the first time he had seen these patterns. It is similar to the ones in his energy-gathering center!

"Impossible... I passed on to you all my knowledge about the Law of Truth and taught you hundreds of minor and major heavenly laws over twenty years, and yet the truth did not choose you, Why now?!" Robin took another step and grabbed his student's head with both hands, his tone filled with panic and his eyes filled with shock, and even some remorse.

Jabba turned off his Eye of Truth so he could look up to his master's face again, a satisfied smile spreading across his face... He knew why his teacher was acting this way.

Not because he was afraid that someone would challenge his position, and he certainly was not afraid that someone would shake the history he had built. 

Jabba knew for sure that his master was panicked because he knew that choosing the truth had finally chosen him when it was too late. He finally got the Master Heavenly Law of Truth recognition after he built his pillars with the Major Heavenly Law of Gravity!

Even if he could use the Master Law of Truth now, it would be like using the Fire Path law to learn how to cook or dry his clothes faster, only as a side helpful law that supports his main one, which is Gravity. He would never be able to follow this path to the end. He would forever be using the initial level of the Eye of Truth to see the first stage of the rest of the laws, and perhaps the second level if he put in some effort, but that's it.

The matter was far easier to accept when the Truth had not been acknowledging him in the first place. It could be said that it was the will of fate or that choosing Jabba from the beginning for this role was a wrong choice and that he was better suited to the position of a general or a leader, but now that the truth had chosen him, Robin felt that his disciple has missed on something really big

Jabba let out a long, satisfied sigh, "There is no need to blame anyone for my late acquisition of the Truth, Master, especially not yourself. You have given me all your experience and knowledge and have not been stingy in answering any question. I am the one who got tired of waiting because I thought that what I did not achieve in twenty A year will never come and I chose to use the Law of Gravity to quickly strengthen myself. Secondly, isn't using the Initial Eye of Truth also good? I now have the same ability as the First Heaven's Chosen who changed the structure of Planet Nihari forever. He also used the Law of Truth too late and only possessed the Initial Eyes of Truth Throughout his short life, all my life I had heard about that entity and looked at him with reverence, but now I have the same power as him! Throughout the long history of the planet Nihari, there were only two natives who had this eye, and I am the third. Isn't this something to be proud of? ...And all of this is thanks to you, master. "
