The Destined Odyssey - Volume 1

The Whiz's Place

Seeing Whiz far from his place they all were shocked. Everyone thanked Whiz for saving the boys. Idash, Raven and Coy saw each other faces and giggled. "Why are you laughing you brats? It is because of you we are in this position!" shouted Gust. He again got a smack on the head from Ignite. "Shut your mouth" warned Fencer. Boys ran behind Fencer and smiled seeing Gust's face. His face was filled with frustration. Seeing his face Nebula, Terra, Maple, Magus and Gonas laughed. Magus healed all of them for the last time, everyone's wounds were recovered. Once again Gonas went close to Whiz and said "Thank you very much..... You saved my child and the boys." His eyes were filled with tears with emotions of happy and relax.

Whiz smirked and asked "Do you really don't know or are you trying to make any bluff" to Gonas. Gonas and others were confused with the words of Whiz. They did not understand why he was speaking like that. Whiz moved forward, as he was moving a light vapour were coming out from his body, his face was very serious and the feelings of faithfulness, respect, love and loyalty were shown on his face. No one has ever seen this side of Whiz till now. The Whiz who did not bow to Demon king or the Supreme god had bowed to the three boys and said "Meeting you three is my pleasure, please allow me to take care of you." All the others were shocked seeing Whiz's behaviour towards the boys. "You might have mistaken them for some others..." said Maple. Idash came to Whiz and whispered in his ears "We are still kids, please move with the flow and be our teacher." The boys smiled and kneeled before Whiz and shouted "Please teach us everything you got." Whiz then released something from his hands and uttered some spells, with that everyone had forgotten the things of him bowing to the boys and the boys speaking to him maturely.

When everyone regained their consciousness from Whiz's spell, he was in front of the boys standing and seeing at them with a smile on his face. Gonas and other again thanked him for saving the boys. "Magus..!" called Whiz. "hm" responded Magus. "Bring Apep, leave these carts here. No one should know the direction of our journey from here." said Whiz. Magus agreed and summoned his pet Apep. Magus lifted his hand and signed Apep to become big. Apep become so big that everyone can be seated on top of him in a line. They all climbed on Apep. Magus was sitting on its head, after that the boys with Fencer and everyone settled Gonas was sitting at last. Whiz was flying in the front, Apep was following him. "These snake tracks may give others way to us, don't you think?" asked Gust to Frigid. "See what is happening below you" said Frigid and pointed to the ground under Apep. Apep was crawling not on the surface of land but in the air above the ground. Seeing this Gust was shocked, his eyes got bigger and his mouth was wide open. "Magus is an Arch Mage and that man in the front Whiz is the most intelligent man in the world, do you think they are stupid to leave the carts behind and making us to travel by this snake" said Ignite.

Soon they reached the south-most part of the forest. They could see nothing but many trees growing together as one making a big trunk. They stopped near that trunk. Magus disappeared Apep. Everyone stood on their feet. Idash was on Fencer's shoulders, Raven and Coy were in his hands hanging. Gust was still in the mode of travelling, he was thinking something and did not realize that they stop thus, he fell on his butt without standing on his feet and shouted "ahhhh." The boys laughed at him. "Keep yourself here, you fool" said Ignite and smacked Gust again on his head. Whiz showed them towards the trunk and asked them whether they could see anything or not. "No" said everyone. "Yes! there is a big tree trunk" answered Gust and giggled. Everyone saw him with annoyance on their faces, the boys again laughed. Gust got one more smack on his head but this time it is from Fencer. "Why is it me every time getting beating, What I said was true, there is a tree trunk before us." said Gust with absurd tone.

"Only the well Trained can see what is actually present there, You people have power but not the control. Let me take you to my place first. There you will be training every day until you see what is present here." said Whiz. He told them to stand in a horizontal line in front of him. Everyone stood in a line. Whiz called Magus and told him to change them cloths with magic. Magus did as he was told. After that whiz spelled some chants on each one and he said "This will allow to hide your identity" and asked them to follow him. Whiz took them to a place which is a bit away from that tree. There that place looked like a very small village with some 20-30 houses. He said "This is the place where I live. These people are the once who only know about the tree present there." The village was very beautiful and people were very kind. They all welcomed them with a warm greeting and smiles of their faces.

Whiz called a man and told him to make rooms for everyone and prepare dinner for them too. Also mentioned that they will be staying there for few years. "Yes, Patla." said the man. Whiz told them to go with that man and take rest, will talk tomorrow about everything, and left them in that man's care and went to his hut. "Hello, my name is Firm. Let me take you to the guest rooms. Please follow me. The man took them to the guest rooms to stay and showed them the place to take baths separately for men and women at the back yard of the rooms. They all took bath relaxed in the hot water and then came for dinner. They had all types of food, they also had meet for dinner. After so many days they had a full meal for dinner so they all ate to their full and went to sleep. As usual boys slept with Fencer. Ignite, Gust and Frigid in one room, Nebula, and Terra in one room, Gonas and Maple in one room and Magus is one room. That night they had slept very soundly and peacefully after many days.
