After shopping and being quizzed, Teddy was tired out. He just wanted to sleep. He learned how to store his gear into his magic items bag.
The best part is that with just a thought, his magic equipment will attach to him. This way, no matter where he went, he could always be ready to defend himself.
He took a shower and went to bed.

During the welcome home party earlier, two women arrived in front of an abandoned house with part of the porch collapsed in.
"Well sister, looks like this cultivator spent a little time here before going to his next destination."
The blonde woman replied, "It seems so. Well it's not worth staying here. We need to move on if we every hope to catch up."
With that, the two women vanished without a trace.

The next morning, Teddy got dressed and ate a simple breakfast. Then he headed out with his mother to go job hunting.
His aunt, though rude, was correct. He did need to find himself a job. He really didn't have much qualifications so he couldn't be picky.
His mother dropped him off at a shopping center. There were plenty of various shops and restaurants that he could apply at here.
Teddy really couldn't lie about his history however there were certain things he could not tell. And everything he could not tell involved his cultivation and the cave.
He walked into a grocery store and had got a job application. He then went off and found himself a table to fill it out.
As he sat there a news reporter had approached him.
Apparently the news reporter had been following Teddy since he left the house. Teddy's return was the story of week and the reporter who snagged an interview would definitely hit it big.
"Theodore Wilson, how does it feel being home after so long?"
After the reporter asked this question, he thrusted a mic in Teddy's face and Teddy could see a cameraman in the background.
Teddy definitely didn't like this turn of events. He may not have had a chance to grow up in a normal life however he still understood this was rude.
Also he firmly believes that you should do unto others as you would have done to you. However Teddy wouldn't let anyone take advantage of him or anyone he cared about.
Teddy glared at the reporter and his cameraman. Suddenly a small balt of lightning came from the sky and struck the camera.
Though the cameraman was fine, the same couldn't be said for the camera. The camera was just about split in two long ways.
The crazy part is there wasn't a cloud in the sky. The lightning literally appeared out of nowhere.
Both the reporter and his cameraman were in shock. However this incident didn't seem to faze Teddy in the slightest bit.
The reason why Teddy wasn't fazed was because he was the one who directed the lightning to hit the camera. This was a good test of his control over the lightning.
You see if he could cause the lightning to hit the camera but not the one holding it, then he has pinpoint control over the lightning. However if the cameraman also got hit, then he would need to work on his control a bit more.
Of course no one but Teddy knew this. That's why the reporter, cameraman, and even some of the onlookers were in shock.
If they knew that it was Teddy, well things would get very difficult for him. He might even loose everything again.
No he can't risk it. Maybe one day the world of cultivators will be made a bit more public. But till then, Teddy must keep this a secret.
Nearby, two women were in the shadows staring at Teddy. Their eyes were wide open. Reason being, they saw everything unfold and knew it was Teddy that controlled the lightning.
You guessed it. These two women were the two that have been tracking down this cultivator who broke through to the ascended stage.
What shocked these two women was the fact that Teddy could control lightning. Only someone who cultivated one of the heavenly techniques could control lightning.
That made Teddy even more powerful than thought before. Also it made these two women desire to recruit him even stronger.
Now you may wonder why this is. There are two answers and they are answer is simple really.
First of all, the heavenly cultivation techniques were extremely powerful. In fact there wasn't a technique that could rival them except the underworld cultivation techniques.
Second, the heavenly and underworld cultivation techniques were considered extinct. It is thought that when the last of the heavenly and underworld cultivators died, their techniques died with them.
So you can imagine that what these two women saw was huge. And you could also imagine how it would effect any cultivator today.
As the two women watched Teddy, Teddy stood up and appeared to walk into an ally. Before the two could follow, a voice came from behind them.
"Why are you following me?"
The two women turned around only to see Teddy standing right behind them. They were shocked to see him standing there with an unfriendly look on his face.
It's obvious he's pissed. I mean, anyone would be upset if they found out someone was following them from the shadows.
These two women knew they had to tread carefully. Despite their own cultivation, Teddy might be able to beat them both in less than ten moves.
This is even more plausible if Teddy truly is one of the heavenly cultivators of the legends.
The brunette woman spoke first.
"My name is Mirella. It's wonderful to finally meet you. You look very young yet you're cultivation is so high. Are you a cultivator of one of the heavenly or underworld arts?"
The tone in Mirella's voice was very alluring. If it was for the fact that Teddy was cut off from the outside world since he was eight, he might have even fallen for her.
But as it happens to be, he has no concept of sex and thus not understanding the tone in her voice. Teddy just ignored her words and just stared.
The blonde woman got nervous. She looked at her sister and spoke next.
"Sis, I don't think flirting will work on him."
Then she turned to Teddy.
"Hello. My name is Seraphine. We belong to the Moonlight Glade Sect. We came seeking you out in hopes of befriending you. Don't mind my sister. She is a flirt but don't mean anything nefarious by it."
So these two women's names are Mirella and Seraphine. And they are part of a cultivation sect called the Moonlight Glade. Lastly the blonde named Seraphine stated that they wanted to befriend him.
Teddy learned a lot in this short exchange. And he barely had to lift a finger or say a word. The real question though is what's their full intentions?
Suddenly the spirit spoke in his mind.
"Cultivator, The Moonlight Glade Sect is an ancient sect. They date back before my time. One thing to note about the sect is that it's very old school."
A question started to form in Teddy's mind. But before he could ask the spirit clarified what it meant.
"The Moonlight Glade Sect has always done things the way it was done at the beginning of the first cultivation era. Back then to form an alliance, whether it be a sect or an individual, a man from one sect and a woman from another would form a dual cultivation partnership."
The spirit let this sink in before it dropped the last bit of information it had.
"Cultivator, I believe the purpose of these women being sent to you is for dual cultivation. The Moonlight Glade Sect sent two women instead of a man. This means that they intend to form an alliance like in the old days. And knowing that you might decide to take both as duel cultivation companions, they still sent the sisters. Showing how important this alliance is to the sect."
Teddy thought about the spirits words and wondered if the spirit might be on to something.
Almost to confirm his suspicions, Mirella decided to speak again. She could see a look on Teddy's face as if he was contemplating something. This made her and her sister nervous.
"Cultivator, we have told you our names. Would you be polite and at least let us know yours? If we are to form an alliance, one must know the other's name."
Teddy tilted his head and asked quizzidly, "What exactly do you mean by forming alliance? I've been cut off since I was eight years old. So I'm ashamed to say it but I'm not aware of how to form an alliance in the cultivation world."
Also when the spirit spoke of dual cultivation, Teddy had no idea what this meant either.
The two women's eyes became wide. Mirella flirtatiously chuckled because this grown adult has no idea about sex. Seraphine on the other hand blushed for the same reason.
Seraphine was a little bit more reserved than her sister. So when she realized the same as her sister this embarrassed her. Reason being is now these two women must explain the birds and the bees to a grown man.
