Leopold walked with Diablo through the forest as they tried to find enough food for the group of six people that were now residing within the village. It had been a wild day for Leopold as he tried to calm down and reorganize himself.

He would never be able to reorganize himself...

"I still can't believe that Miss Emerald offered to cook for all of us!" Leopold exclaimed. "I wonder what a nobles cooking is like... The servants always did our cooking so I've never tried a noble's dish!"

"Indeed. Tis very good." Diablo agreed, robotically as usual.

"You really should try and socialize more..." Leopold observed. "Maybe then you'd sound less like you've been through a war... It's so depressing!"

"My apologizes, master."

"IF YOUR SO SORRY THEN FREAKING SPOT ALREADY!"

Leopold sighed as he looked around the bushes and trees for food. "It has been pretty strange here as of late... Emerald is MY childhood friend?! Which means that when I had that dream it was my childhood friends..."  Leopold's eyes widened as he thought of the dream he had a few months prior.

"Hey, Diablo..." he breathed, looking back over at the other male he was with. "About that dream I had a few months ago... Was it really a dream?"

The black haired male shook his head slowly as he looked at Leopold with cold, blank eyes. "I do believe that you had a vision during that event. It was as if something or someone sent you into the past."

"Who?" the blond haired boy asked.

"I do not know. If I had to guess, I'd guess that it was a powerful individual that surpassed the abilities of some of the strongest warriors in history. The use of time magic has not been seen in centuries..." Diablo answered.

Nodding, Leopold went back to looking for animals to eat as he thought to himself. Even if it was a vision rather than a dream like he had previously assumed, it didn't change much for Leopold. It wasn't like worrying about that would really gain him anything to begin with, so why bother caring? 

The two boys looked around the forest for a while longer before finally concluding that it was too late to keep looking for mammals that may or may not even exist. Leopold yawned as he looked over at Diablo.

"I have an idea." he said. "Instead of wasting my time here, why don't I just go to the Spirit Kingdom?"

"I don't understand what it is you are suggesting, Master Leopold."

Taking a deep breath, Leopold stretched his arms. "Well you know how I am a half spirit? It means that I can go to the Spirit Kingdom, a kingdom full of the Spirit race, whenever I want. And since I am engaged to the princess of the formerly mentioned kingdom, I should be able to ask for some food from them."

"Seems reasonable. Should I come with you?" Diablo asked.

Leopold shook his head as he walked over to Diablo, putting a hand on his shoulder. "I think that I will be just fine. You should head back to the village and tell Emerald that I will be there shortly."

Diablo nodded as he instantly teleported out of the area before Leopold could even blink! The blond haired boy sat in confusion for a moment as he thought about what just happened.

"Didn't know that he could do that... I should really ask Diablo about his abilities sometime."

"Well, I guess that I should get going." Leopold said aloud turning around. He took a deep breath before drawing a magic circle in the space behind him. "Spiritual Magical!"
