9 Lives of Jotaro Kujo and Star Platinum

Chapter 6. Phantom Blood Circle. The first training.

As Giorno expected, the next town was fairly quiet. The warriors settled for a day in this city, renting a cottage within its boundaries. The large grove was an ideal place for training and replenishing drinking water. MYSTICS ARE RULE! trained with William for the first time, and as Robert said, Zeppeli turned out to be terribly demanding. They hadn’t had to stand on rocks yet; today they had the basics, namely William taught them to breathe properly and absorb solar energy. Jonathan and Robert watched the training.

“Feeling nostalgic, huh?” asked Robert, yawning.

“A little. I hope they can handle the load,” Jonathan answered.

“You managed it, they can handle it too. You quickly mastered all these tricks with solar energy,” the blond said.

“I had more time, Robert. And they only have a month” Robert burst out laughing.

“Heheheh, I'm more than sure that Jotaro won't let his comrades get exhausted. In addition, for travel you need weapons”

“Do you think that bows and arrows are not enough?”

“Yeah. We need swords, they also conduct Hamon”

“I think we’ll resolve this issue,” Robert smiled kindly and stretched, spreading his wings.

“I wanted to ask you a question, where did you get this scar?” Jonathan asked.

“Got it in a street fight, many years ago. But the one who left it to me bears scars from my teeth and claws,” Robert answered, smiling.

“Then you have found your animal form? Wow)”

“Then all the bandits realized that it was better not to mess with Speedwagon in battle,” Robert yawned, extending his claws.

“Robert, I wanted to ask you? Do you miss your home?” Jonathan asked.

“Honestly, no, Jonathan, I don’t miss it” answered the golden spotted tabby cat.

“Why?”  which Robert calmly replied.

“Nothing holds me there. Not the family I don’t have, not the memories, nothing. Friends, perhaps, but when I left for you, they managed without me”

“Have they told you about soulmates?” Jonathan asked.

“Of course, mom told me,” the blond answered, waving the tip of his tail.

“Is it true? And what signs did she tell you about?” As an aristocrat, Jonathan, of course, knew about soul mates. However, it seemed to him that he had been told about this phenomenon as if it were a cheesy fairy tale about a princess who must be rescued by a prince from the clutches of a dragon. They say that the connection between the souls of the princess and the prince is so strong that nothing can break it. However, if the question arose about the kinship of the souls of two men, they can hit hum really hard. Therefore, Jonathan kept this matter a secret.

“About all sorts of tedious stuff, like soulmate marks,” Robert began.

“Why do you think they are boring?” Jonathan asked.

“Because they're lying to us, Jonathan. And they don't allow you to be happy. Especially if the Chosen Ones are a couple of men” he said, wagging his tail with great irritation.  “And also, if you are poor, then that’s it, dry your oars”

Indeed, there was a huge scandal when people saw Robert in the company of the Joestars. Fortunately, Erina accepted the soul mate of her husband and best friend as a natural and interesting phenomenon. Life with Jonathan and Erina was an interesting start for Robert. He was able to reveal his talent for controlling fire and metal, was able to gain confidence and weight in society, and his girlfriend and soul mate saw how society generally relates to the phenomenon of the kinship of the souls of two people.

“It’s not fair that such a wonderful phenomenon is treated so disdainfully,” Jonathan snorted. “Hypocritical bastards.”

“Yeah, but we still managed it)” Robert purred  “And it seems that the training is over for today. Strange, it's only midday)”

“Apparently, Baron Zeppeli decided not to burden the guys,” Jonathan suggested.

“Maybe, although I believe that Jotaro “tactfully” hinted that they are not you, and they need to rest more,” Robert said, watching the tired young warriors approaching them, and did not ask them how the training went.

“Wash yourselves and rest. I'll be there soon” Jotaro said, sending his comrades into the house. They happily went to the cottage. The guy lay down on the grass, and with his head he felt Star’s mane.

‘Why didn’t you leave with the others? You’re exhausted too’ the gentle voice of the star cat sounded.

‘I want to be alone and think. To be alone with you, of course,’ replied Jotaro.
