In the days that followed, the village buzzed with excitement as the news spread that three children—Ron, Julian, and Olivia—had awakened their magic aptitudes. Their families were overjoyed, their homes filled with laughter and celebration.
The news quickly rippled across the territory
Many people began making plans to send their children for the next awakening ceremony.
As the initial excitement began to fade, the territory gradually returned to its normal rhythm.
During this time, Sarah took on the role as the teacher for the small school Sera had established.
The classes were held in the church once every 10 days, and the school quickly gained popularity. Children from across the territory began to attend, eager to learn.
Kevin arranged for a collection of basic textbooks to be sent to the village. These books were given to Sarah, providing her with the tools to expand her knowledge.
Soon, it is time for Kevin to leave Raven's Crest as he has completed his training.
Joshua, the new trainee priest who arrived on orders to take Kevin's place, learned under Kevin diligently.
Throughout his stay, Kevin had immersed himself in various scriptures, notes, and other subjects, all from the collection left by Priest Benedict.
The peaceful environment of the barony allowed him to spend hours in the shrine, studying and contemplating, deepening his understanding.
One day, Joshua observed Kevin, sitting back in his chair, legs casually crossed on the table, swinging leisurely as he wrote intently.
"Sir Kevin, what are you writing?" Joshua asked curiously.
Without looking up, Kevin replied, "I'm writing my final report to Priest Benedict, summarizing the assignments he entrusted to me."
(please read Chapter 13 to read Kevin's Report)
"May I read it when you're finished?"
"Sure."
Joshua stood beside Kevin without leaving.
After a moment of silence.
"Sir Kevin."
Kevin, still engrossed in his writing, responded without lifting his head.
"Do you want to ask something?"
"Yes. I've heard about the children who have inherited the artifacts. What should we do about them?"
"Leave them be," Kevin replied calmly.
"..."
"Should we not try to recruit them?" The new pastor felt befuddled.
"We should."
"Then...?"
Finally, Kevin raised his head and looked at him, "There's no need to hurry. I'm already mentioning them in my report. I am sure the higher ups will be interested."
He leaned back slightly, a thoughtful expression crossing his face.
"I've also informed them to leave them be for now.
"Let them live in this peaceful and innocent village for a few more years. It won't be long before they get dragged into the dirt and danger.
"The longer they remain untainted, the better their character will be in the future."
"But sir, if we do that, it won't be long before other factions come to recruit them?"
Kevin's eyes glinted with a knowing smile. "Don't worry. No one will come. At least not until the next awakening ceremony."
