Chapter 15: Day of Departure
Chapter 15: Day of Departure
As morning arrived, Kai moved his busy body around the cave while he stored all the necessary stuff in his magic ring.
Today was the day he was leaving the forbidden forest after 11 years, to go back to meet his parents and friends. Even though it's been so long, he had never forgotten about his parents nor there has been a day he hadn't missed them.
His master also said this is a reason that is holding him back from attaining the state of nothingness.
In this one year, he spent all his time studying magic and practicing. He had mastered all sorts of non-attribute magic arts, but Daoma still refused to teach him other attribute magic before he attained the state of nothingness.
"Kai, Kai, come here boy. I have something for you."
"What is it, Master? What are you giving me?" Asked Kai looking at master Daoma that was sitting on top of a chest.
"If I remember correctly when I last went to Master's laboratory, he told me to bring this chest with me, but I was not able to open it due to a powerful magic lock applied over it," Kai thought as he looked at master Daoma sitting on it.
"You are my first student. In this one year, you were able to learn all the non-attribute magic arts and knowledge of the Mortal stage. It surprised me to see your speed of growth, but there is still more to learn. It's just the basics, and in the outer world, there are countless magic users of your level. You are still at the bottom stage of the magic world.
"Listening to master Daoma's speech, which he kept on repeating again and again. Just how many times has he repeated the same speech telling him not to get overconfident?
"Master, weren't you going to give me something? Can we talk about this at a later time?"
"Ok... ok... I am just telling you this to remind you.
"After that, Daoma stood up and the magic lock on the chest was unlocked. Then, the chest opened with a clanking sound and the thing inside was revealed before Kai's eyes.
Looking inside the chest, a piece of clothing could be seen. At first, it seemed like it was a normal piece of clothing, but when one carefully looked at it, you could feel how unusual it was. Just when Kai looked at the clothing, it suddenly flew up and wrapped around Kai's entire body like a bandage and made him like a mummy. Then, a magic circle appeared on top of Kai's head and came down to Kai's feet and disappeared, making a black-robed Kai appear.
It was a black robe with silver stripes on the ends covering his entire body, and a hood and mask only revealing his eyes and giving his look a mysterious feeling.
After looking at the robe he was wearing, he looked at master Daoma.
"Curious about what it is? It's your gift. It's a magic robe, Kai. You should know that magic users have to go to many dangerous places and experience many dangers, so all magic users have life-saving treasures. There are times when one exhausts all their magic power, but they still need to struggle for their lives, and that is the time when the treasures become handy, although it's a little wasteful for you, who has such a vast magic power and an abnormally strong body for a magic user, it still has many functions like flight, invisibility, hiding aura, changing voice, changing face, mental attack resistance, and more.
If you ever wanted to kill a magic user enemy, you must first destroy his life-saving treasure."
When hearing Daoma looking at the robe, he smiled. "Master, don't you have any more robes of this kind?"
"What will you do with more robes? Is one not enough for you?" Said Daoma as he looked at Kai who was smiling at him.
"No, no, no, master, I was just wondering. If you have more, then we can later sell them when we go to the outer world, to make money."
"You should just forget that idea of yours. Just to make this robe and to collect materials for it, I had to go through many dangers and they were so rare, those Saint rank powerhouses would vomit blood after hearing about those materials, not to mention in this small outer world of yours." Said Daoma.
Hearing Daoma, he felt disappointed.
"Instead of wasting time, go and pack all the things you want to take with you when we leave. You will not be able to enter here again withing a year, as the key to open and get inside the barrier will require a year to charge."
After some time, Kai, with Daoma, stood outside the cave, and as Kai looked at the cave, which has been his home for 11 years, he took out a golden key from his ring.
"Why in the world we have to use that key? Can't we just use the magic transfer circle in the control room?"
"Stop your nagging and just the transfer function of the key, so we can go outside the barrier."Just as Kai held the key and sent magic power into it, the key started to glow and they disappeared from their spot. At the same time, on the western side of the outer region of the forbidden forest. "Finally! I am back haha! I am back, world! I am back, mother, father!"
"Stop shouting. You were just inside the barrier, not in some other world, so try to look for the direction back to your hometown or are you planning on spending the night in this forest?"
Hearing Daoma, Kai used flight to look at the sun.
"I remember my home is on the northwest side of the forbidden forest." He looked at the direction of the sun rising.
"The sun is rising from that direction, so my hometown is in the direction of my left hand."
As Kai looked to his left, he zoomed in that direction.
"Let's go."
