Delta’s POV

“Only one star in the sky can shine the brightest”

Ever since Devolos devoured Achilles' light completely and I took the title as the world champion, I have been the strongest blader in the world. Me and Devolos are known as the unstoppable duo. My mission as the brightest star in the sky was complete. All the bladers in the whole world know my name and a lot of bladers want to challenge me. But now.. I don't know what to do.

I have been winning against bladers around the world for 3 years now (Delta was 14 when he battled Aiger). It’s quite enjoyable seeing bladers struggle to beat me and see bladers lose against me at first, but now I feel.. empty. Beyblading now feels boring because the bladers I encountered are honestly all weak. Beyblading is supposed to be fun, right?? That’s what Valt always said..

My thoughts were interrupted by a robotic woman's voice, “morning Delta, somebody wants to meet you”. Oh, it was my robot assistant, Iris. I silently groan in frustration, I don't want to meet anyone right now but I have no choice. “This better be important”, I mutter quietly as I walk to the meeting room which is a room where I meet my guests. I wonder who it will be this time.

I finally arrive at the meeting room to see a familiar blue spiky haired person, sitting and waiting by the couch. My bitter attitude turns into a soft one. I was thinking of him just a few minutes ago, is this a coincidence? His head turns to look at me and he smiles warmly. “Hey Delta! It’s been a while huh?”, he said as he stood up, he put his hands on his hips. I smiled softly and nodded.

“What brings you here, Valt?”

“I just wanna see one of my students, that's all!”, Valt said with a grin. I smiled softly and sighed. “Of course..” We take a seat on the couch, I give him a glass of water and some biscuits which he accepts.

“Soooooooo how are you Delta??”, he said as he took a bite of the biscuit.

I thought for a moment, should I tell him how I feel right now about beyblade? He was my teacher after all. Valt looks at me as he tries to figure out what I'm thinking about right now. I decide to tell the truth, he probably knows what to do.

“I have always been well, but I feel a bit empty these past few months. I don't know how to explain it”, I said as I looked down at the drink in my hands. Valt looks at me with curiosity.

“Hmm can you explain this empty feeling a bit more Delta?? Maybe I can help you!”, he said softly. I think for a moment to arrange my words.

“These past few months, beyblading feels empty and a bit boring now. No offense. I love beyblading and beyblade is my passion but.. I feel like.. I lost my passion for beyblade”

“Hmm”, Valt hum as he thought hard about what I said just now. “I think I know why you have been feeling like this”, he said with a serious expression. I feel a bit nervous at his sudden change of personality. Valt only shows his serious demeanor when it’s about beyblade. If he's being serious not because of beyblade, there's definitely something wrong with him.

“The reason you lose your passion for beyblade is because… you don't have any friends”

“Wait what?” I was quite surprised to hear his statement. I feel a bit offended though. But he is not wrong.. I don't make many friends, I was too busy in my own world and beyblade. But really, what's the connection between losing passion for beyblade and not having friends?

“yes. Remember that you're so obsessed with being the brightest star in the sky?”

“I don't know what you're on about Valt”

“Just listen. Being the brightest star may be fun but sometimes being the only brightest star in the sky can be sad and lonely. It's better when there are other stars in the sky to share it with. It's not fun when you beyblade alone. Beyblade is fun when you do it with your friends. The night sky is better with more stars, you know!” Valt said with a soft grin.

I thought about what he said. I sigh and look at Valt “I guess you're right, thanks Valt”, I smile softly.

He smiles back and pats gently on my back. “no worries Delta! That's what friends are for!! But really, you need friends Delta”. I only answered him with a sigh. Is this a sign where Valt tries to find me some friends?
