Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

A child appeared in a lonely life of an old bird.

A child most special she had seen in her long, tiring lives.

Someone special in many ways.

Abnormal, but amazing.

An anomaly that should have never occurred in this nigh-perfect nature.

A child of another world.

Someone who had suffered from the loneliness and cruelty of that world.

A child that survived with any means in that world and... this one, too.

He had no one but then; he found a family after he miraculously came into this world.

He was a reincarnation, but, even among those errors, this one had a great impact on the entire nature just from being present.

A linear timeline changed, making him a singularity that existed in many.

But this wasn't a bad thing.

Nature loved him and his life, though full of thorns, had light and feathers that would heal the bleeding feet.

His origin was similar to this old bird, same as me, one of the most powerful ones of this nature.

This boy, that survived death, fought with all his heart and reached the place she made to live after her long, boring lives.

The bird was old, far more than the boy could think, and it wasn't such a good thing.

Her dwelling, this magnificent tower, was just a structure she made out of her millennia-long boredom.

She had just lived in the wait for her time to come, but then, this boy appeared in her life and changed everything.

He was the perfect candidate she could find, and the perfect student she could ever ask for.

This old bird was strong and had unparalleled wisdom and knowledge that stood at the pinnacle of the world.

All this, and there was no one she could share this with... until he came.

With a mind similar to her own, a mind that could remember everything, and wisdom that was far more than what a child should have.

The most special thing about this boy was his desire to live.

His unparalleled desire to live in this world, go back to the family he had, and gain knowledge of this peculiar world of magic.

Even if she ventured into the world, she may not find someone as perfect as this one.

A student, a successor... and a grandson.

She had lived her life in solitude, not that she cared about being with people.

This old bird had seen the world for more than some gods now, making her a being incomparable to any.

There weren't many being like her in this nature.

But again... this didn't mean she liked this.

She, the bird… I had everything. All experience one would want, all riches, all knowledge one would need in this world.

And even though new things were discovered and found every day, there was no need for me to know them.

The world was now peaceful in most parts. It was quieter than those old days when a great war could break out at any moment.

Wars between same species, different races, the war with demonic race or even war with gods and others like me.

Those were times of chaos, forgotten from this world.

The times right now, the other races, the higher beings, and all were better than those old days.

I remembered everything just like him and everything, every moment, all those days were still clear in my mind.

At that time, I was just a powerless being that lived among other races and survived with anything it took.

At one time, I stood at the top of this world, looking down at every mortal creature.

Never have I before thought a life that just... passed for me after making this place, would one day have such happiness.

He called me grandma.

And he was the first being to call me that.

My natural enchanting beauty didn't work on him because he had a similar origin as me, but still, calling me grandma from the bottom of his heart was quite something.

The time I asked him to become my successor was nothing but my selfishness.

My one-sided desire to have the thing I had longed for in these long, tiring lives.

He did not know what it meant to be my successor, and even at this moment when he was cruelly tided by those strong chains, he was clueless about what was happening.

p His chaotic thoughts were pitiful, just like him.

He was still thinking about why would his grandma would do such a thing and… I hated myself for doing such a cruel thing to the one I loved.

I had taught him with all my heart.

From combat, and cooking, to other things like gardening.

He also learned with every fiber of his being and now had knowledge like no other.

Almost three years had passed since the day we met, and now he was strong enough to go back to his parents.

And I wanted him to go back as soon as possible, too.

I could have done this after living with my beloved grandson for some more.

But…

My love for him was undeniable, and there was no greater happiness in this lonely tower than to just play with him.

The countless time I laughed with him, the cute faces he would make, to the fun we had together.

There was no greater happiness for us than just being with each other but, he offered more.

He learned all my basic teachings in this short time and became proficient in them.

He taught me things he knew I already knew, but we delighted in these small things.

He loved me as much as I did, maybe even more.

And... he did not have any selfish reason like me for that.

He was a wonderful child and I should have lived with him for some more, but... the time has come.

For us to part ways and for me to fulfill my last wish.

But... before that.

Looking at my dear Eon, who was chained with those blue chains that would help him with what was going to happen in that place, I smiled warmly, like I usually did.

"You can go to the [Treasury] whenever you want after today, but this first time will be different. So, take care~!" I waved at him and he calmed down a bit after looking at this smile.

He understood me the most, as a master and as a grandma.

He knew I would never do something to harm him.

The chains that looked tightly covering his whole body weren't hurting him at all, but he was going to get hurt.

His very soul would scream when he enters that place, but if he overcomes that unbearable agony, he will have something few beings standing on the top possessed.

I knew he would be alive at the very least and so were the chains that would help his soul in the [Integration] process.

He will understand what I was doing right then and he will confirm the answer he always denied.

It will be some of the last gifts I would give him myself, but... today would mark the day his life would change.

Someone will go away from his life and... someone will come that he will have to protect with his entire being.

They will get along well, but I don't know anything that would happen to her.

All I could hope would be the two will be with each other, protecting each other with the same love I had for them.

He might meet her sooner than expected, but these two will have a bond of family.

If it was him, my student, my grandchild... and my successor, then they will hopefully be fine.

Well, I didn't know the exact future, so there was no need to think too deeply about this... a part of me will always be with him, so he should do just fine.

Only if he could act less foolishly, then he would be more perfect than now.

But, well, I helplessly loved that side of him, too.

"Good luck Eon. I know you can do it~." I waved at him and a golden magic circle appeared under him.

He had calmed down enough to hesitantly nod his head with a confident look that still did not know what was going to happen to him.

The golden light covered him, and his body started disintegrating into light particles.

"Good luck, Eon. I know you can do it~! Believe in yourself ~." I said my last words and... he smiled at this selfish grandma before vanishing.

51st floor was an amazing place and places that came close to it were numbered on fingers.

Well, he was going to suffer severely for some time now, so I could just pray he comes out alive from that one.

"Dear Eon..." it was unbelievable but, a being like me, someone that has seen countless wars, bloodshed, deaths, and all the negative shit of the world with stoic eyes, had tears lingering at the ends of those same eyes.

To make a divine being such as me emotional... only he could do this.
