By taking this boat we had arived at Irin. I was oficially free. And Asura was as much as a heaven as i expected. Green all around and what's more, there was no extreme heat! The contrast even, i felt cold! But not too much. It wasn't extreme heat, but instead okay weather. It's hard to explain.
I had made quite a bit of progress, getting to understand all saint classed magic wasn't too hard. To make my progress even further, i had learned to move both my hands whilst gathering mana, wich, translated, would mean i could now try to move my whole body. Something i have already done once, but only when extremely concentrated. It had been after i had sat still for an hour and gotten in a zone like feeling. It would not be long before i could move on and (Probably) gain even faster mana gathering.
*He already has faster mana gathering through even training it. But it is only 1.2x more then normal. As such it gradually goes up untill it's 1.5x or later when he trains even more 2x etc. But it can be said that training by moving also makes gathering a slight bit faster, but not as much as it will be when he can move his whole body.*
Now there were 3 steps left. Move my whole body with my eyes closed, move my body with my eyes open but still concentrated on gathering and then, the dreaded time of no more need to concentrate at all. The process took me a year, but through my understanding of gathering, i think i can do it slightly faster next time. But enough of my progress. Luna has also made some!
She has broken through to voiceless, but has only learned to do it with water. She made slower progress then me, but i started earlier and with a slight jump start. With that in mind, she has tried wind magic and gone on to learn to read with trouble. But atleast now she can unravel atleast the incantation by translating herself. Something she had told me she would do on her own, as my helping would just halt her progress in reading. By reading however, she has also learned a bit of writing. So it's all good.
With that in mind, it will take 1 month to come to Ars. Our end destination. I only chose this place because it was the safest and filled with the most opertunities. Becoming one of their guards isn't a pipe dream anymore. After all, i still have my sharp swords, wich i, at times, still sharpen with the sandstone. I wouldn't be surprised if they can become so sharp that they go through stone neither. And i have trained my body a slight bit aswell. So that battle aura can be used even better, because on top of battle aura, a person must also have a fine build to further enhance the strength of battle aura. With pride, i can say that with a pretty big amount of my mana, i can move so fast that i can't be seen. I would say that this is all thanks to the fact that i am pretty in sinc with my body and have perfect balance in my body. I can move my body in any way without the thoughts of "Will i fall? Will i fail? Will i stumble and mess up?" Or aswell, i have no second thoughts about whether to do something or not. Together with that, i am balanced all round between the left side and right side of my body. This balance is what makes it possible for me to make unexpected movements. But Flexibility complements it all aswell. Over all, i have found out that god might not have blessed me in the luck department, but sure has made me a battle freak, capable of making a lot of things possible. But over all, it's my determenation that has made it possible. If i had not learned to control mana, i could have never utilised all my talents that i did have. No, in truth i am lying to myself. The sole reason i could become this strong was because of granny.
Ultimatly i was blessed aswell... Everything down to my race is something that all crystalizes in the fact that i am blessed. But i also know that i have worked hard aswell. Every day i used all my magic. Wich must mean i atleast had something to do with it right? Eitherway i will need to use all my mana all the time. Since now i am young. If there is something i learned from Verdads book, it's that she didn't have a lot of progress after her 35th in the quantaty of her mana. She started at 10, and peaked her growth at 15. But had stated that for a lot of other mages it was the same. Unless you had a super rare gift wich would allow for longer growth. But she also mentionned that it depended on your race. As her race would stay younger longer, her mana would grow for longer then the humans in her group wich stopped at 20. And then there was a second factor wich she told was a super rare gift that allowed for more growth and faster growth in exchange for battle aura.
*Yes it's the laplace factor. Seth has it aswell, but has been extremely blessed being given only the good side of it. Having longer mana growth and faster. For him this means he will grow untill his 40th. (35th being where the snake races growth stagnates. A trait he gained by being a hybrid with more genetics going towards the snake race).*
A lot of this made me happy. Since i could gain a lot of mana and eventually get the most mana in the world probably. If i kept going with using ALL of my mana all the time, i wouldn't have trouble with emperor class magic. Even being able to use it multiple times. But with my mana gathering technique wich would never stagnate, i could also regenerate it SUPER fast! Wich in total meant that i could use a nigh-infinite amount of emperor class magics! I could SPAM emperor magic!
*He doesn't say Spam ofcourse. But i don't know another word for it*
This thought made Seth exstatic, but also scared. Why would god allow him all of this power?
*Because your my oc hohoho... And no one is reading all of this anyway. And eitherway it will take a very long time for Seth to reach this level anyway. So Seth isn't op just yet!*
"Shall we get off... the boat?"
"A-ah yeah... if we got back i would be arested"
"Yeah... still not sure about how i feel traveling with a criminal"
I looked down for a bit
"A-ah, no, i believe you! It was just a tease!"
"N-no, it wasn't that. Just... thought of someone"
The word criminal made me think of Jueles. I just couldn't believe her. She did all of that..? To be honest, in my head i still refuse to believe that was her talking. But i know that thinking that would delusion myself. And it wouldn't be a bother. As long as i was banned, i couldn't see her anyway. And i would be banned for quite some time. Perhaps forever. And i wouldn't mind it. If Jueles really regreted what she did, she would have come after me. Or sent me a letter. Or atleast, at the very least, told me she remembered and given a small smile. That alone would have been enough. But i am through with thinking of her. It's really past now. A new page in my diary, in my live, was about to be flipped.
I was about to go through the city, but i stopped for a second
"So what now?"
"Hm?"
"Will you go to the great forest?"
"A-ah, no."
"What?"
"No i won't. Following you seems more fun for now. And i can go to the great forest after some time aswell. My gut just tells me to follow you"
"And if that won't work out for you?"
"Then i made a wrong choice"
"Hmph, fine then. But i promise you this. Whilst i am still breathing, i will bring you to the great forest one way or the other"
"That's a promise then"
"Yeah... a promise..."
*Small flashback to around 6 years ago*
"Hey Seth?"
"Yeah?"
"Will we be friends forever? No matter what?"
"Yeah!"
"Is that a promise?"
"Yeah, forever and ever Jueles!"
*Back to the present*
Forever and ever... you can't tell me you forgot Jueles... i refuse to believe it. So why do you hate me..?
