Reincarnation? (part 2)

After running for about one and a half hour, Bor finally arrived in the town gate. He used his energy to run all the way from the forest to the town that he managed to cut the time needed to travel from both places. After entering the town, he immediately walking towards Old Lig's house that located in the center area.

When he arrived at the front door of his boss' house, he knocked it,

"knock..knock." not waiting for long, there is someone opening the door. It was one of the maids working for Old' Lig's family.

"ohh.. Mr. Bor. Master told me to invite you to his study when you arrives." Said the maid.

"alright." Bor said.

Both of them heading to the study room, and the maid knocked the door,

"master, Mr. Bor has arrived." Said the maid.

"come in." Answered someone from the inside of the study.

Both of them entered the room. In the room, Old Lig sat on a chair and looked at the two. He said to the maid, "leave us alone."

"yes master." The maid replied.

After the maid left Old Lig pointing to the chair opposite of him telling Bor to sit.

"have you done what I ordered you to do?" Old Lig asked Bor as the former smoked from a pipe.

"yes boss, everything was done cleanly. Even if he doesn't die because of the wound and the blood loss, I'm sure the beasts in the forest will eat him after they smell his blood." Answered Bor. The night before the departure Old Lig told him to kill Elias after the pick the flower. It was done because Old Lig did not want to pay Elias the gold coin he promised the latter.

'just because of a single gold coin he told me to kill someone, I need to be more careful in the future, I don't want to make a mistake in the future that will make him order someone to kill me.' Thought Bor

"do you have the flower?" Old Lig asked Bor.

"yes, I do. But It's still a bud. We can't find any blooming flower." Said Bor regretfully.

Olg Lig's face showed a disappointed expression, but it was only for a second.

"while it is indeed regretful, but even so I heard it is still beneficial for cultivators under the intermediate level. I know how hard it is to find a single green rhine flower. Not only the cultivators who wants it, the beasts is rumored to also searching for it to help their cultivation." Said Old Lig consoling Bor.

"yes boss." Said Bor gratefully.

"okay then, go back and take a rest. Tomorrow you will accompany me to visit the lord." Said Old Lig.

"yes. Thank you boss. Then, I'm leaving." Bor replied.

Old Lig just nodded. He stay silence until he Bor closed the door.

'hmm.. you want something from me but don't have anything to pay me back. Now you paid with your life. So don't blame me for it, just blame your stupidity.' Thought Old Lig while he continued to smoke from the pipe

In the outermost area of the Man-Eating Forest, Elias's body still laying on the ground when suddenly one of his finger moved. Not long after he opened his eyes and started groaning because of the pain he felt before he lost consciousness, "ugh.....huh." But suddenly he came to a realization, that his body no longer felt any pain. This person is no longer Elias Janks the God Slayer, but the original owner of the body, Elias Pledl

"am I dead? It must be so." Elias said while touching his stomach where the wounds located. "I must be so dead, look, even my wounds are all healed." Elias started looking around to find in which place he is in now, the heaven or the hell. After doing it for about three minutes he found that place is so dark and he can't see anything. He tried to see his surroundings and recite one of the too spell he know in his mind, 'Torch', but to his surprise, the light emitted no longer illuminating the surrounding 10 meters ahead, it even illuminating kilometers of area in his surrounding. It is so bright that it gave him a scare.

"what the... is the heaven this amazing? Even an untalented guy like me is so amazing."

After he saw the area around him, it startled him, he is still in the forest, in the place where Bor left him to die. Before he said anything, another realization hit him, there is so many unknown memories and information in his mind. He never experienced those memories before, so he is certain that these memories are not belong to him, but he doesn't understand how these memories end up in his mind. He started to see through all these memories and found many things like battle auras, mass destruction magic spells, sword techniques, archery, blacksmithing, magic array productions, etc. He also found that the owners of these memories is someone named Elias Janks, the God Slayer, the one he know as a legendary figure in this world, not only him, there is also a blacksmith master, a great emperor, an alchemist master, a saint that excels in magic of all the energies, and the last is a supreme warrior. All of these five figures are unknown to him because according to the information he found in the memories, these guys are living in the ancient age, the era before the big disaster that erased almost every living beings in this world. Elias never knew about the ancient age or the big disaster, but from the new memory, he found that there was indeed an ancient era where energy cultivation both in magic and battle aura are at the peak.

Beside these knowledge, he also felt a great strength coming from his body and he can control it as he wished,it seems as the strength was always belonged to him from the beginning. All of these happenings shocked him to the core that he still stay silent with his mouth wide open until more than ten minutes.

It took tens of minutes to calm his mind. After he calmed down, he took the magical stone and looking at it. This stone that he thought as an ordinary stone turned out to be a very legendary stone in the ancient age.

The first time of it's appearance was in the early centuries of the ancient age. It was found by a dwarven blacksmith master, known as Olav. He first thought it as an ordinary stone, but after he accidentally channeled his energy inside the stone, he found out that there is a space inside it. He tried to observe the space and experiment with it. After hours of experiment and observation he came to a realization that gave him a pleasant surprise, the space was so large that after observing it for hours he can't estimate how large it is, another thing was that he can store an eternal object inside the stone. And since then, the stone became his storage item that was never became full no matter how much the objects he put inside. He always keep the stone with him until he died. Before his death, he tried to put his soul inside the stone, and he succeed.

After his death, his sons and apprentices who knew about the stone fought over it. After the passage of time, it grew to be known by the major powers of the ancient age. Blood was spilled over it, because of the stone, there were experts killing each other, and empires declaring war between each other.

Elias thought over it and coming to a conclusion that all of these are unimportant things for him. All he desired is a peaceful and stable life without anyone looking at him with disdain. He took the stone then started to walk, leaving the forest.

'now that I became so strong, there is nothing anymore for me to do. Let's just find a wife and have a happy family.' He simply thought, he never expected that in the future there will be waves of ignorant people trying to disturb his peaceful daily life.

'hmm.. what to do about Bor and Old Lig? Those guys have fooled me.' He thought to get his revenge on them, but immediately got rid of that thought,

'nah.. I don't want to do it, it's too tiring and troublesome. After all, if not because of those guys I won't have this power.' Elias opens his mouth to a grin, then his expression turned to a serious one, 'but for those guys in the army that caused my father's death, I will make them pay.' His eyes showing an expression that has never been seen in him before, it was an expression of deep hatred that had been lurking in his heart all this time. He remembered the grievances and sufferings he and his mother have faced. All those memories makes his blood boil.

He continued to walk to his hut. After around three hours of journey he arrived at his little hut. It was almost midnight. After everything he went through tonight, he felt a mental fatigue. After he enters his hut, he immediately lay down in his wooden bed. He fell asleep not long after his head touched the hard pillow.

Zyrindall Kingdom,

Zyrindall Kingdom is one of the northern kingdoms in Welsand continent. the kingdom shares border with Madura Kingdom at the east. This kingdom was ruled by the elf race and was founded a few hundred years ago. It is a strong country, but still far weaker than the Madura Kingdom.

In the capital city of Zyrindall, Ellofyl City, inside the royal castle, there is a handsome and slim man sitting on the throne hearing the reports of his ministries.

He is the king of the elven kingdom, Aydin Silkith.

In the middle of the meeting, a guard entered the hall and walks until he stopped in the front of the throne then he half-kneels. He remained silent until the king gave him the signal to talk.

"reporting, Your Majesty. The Holy Oracle told me to deliver a message. She humbly asked your majesty to pay a visit to Her Holiness, there is something urgent she need to convey to Your Majesty." The guard reported.

"alright. I will be there soon. Tell Her Holiness to wait for me."

"yes, Your Majesty." After he said that, the guard retreated and exited the hall.

"it seems that we need to finish our meeting for now. Let's continue the meeting tomorrow morning. Disperse." The King ordered all of the audiences, but there is still an old elf that remained in the hall, he is the Royal Advisor, Ammer Zanyl. He is the king's most trusted person, and someone that he treats like an uncle.

"uncle, what do you think about the thing Her Holiness wants to say to me?" The king asked the wise old man.

"I don't have any idea, Your Majesty. But it seems that everything she wants to say is something very important. Because it is very rare for her to ask an audience with Your Majesty. Moreover she even asked Your Majesty to visit her. It must be something really urgent. And I think it is unwise to make Her Holiness to wait any longer." The old elf answered.

"okay then, can you accompany me, uncle?"

"as you wish, Your Majesty." The old elf bowed slightly.

In a small forest in the outskirt of Ellofyl City, there is a small group of houses, these houses with moss, grass and flowers growing on them are the dwellings of the Holy Oracle and her apprentices.

The Holy Oracle's real name is Leena Ferineera, and old female elf that reached more than three hundred years old. She was from the same era as the previous king. She is a very respected figure in this kingdom, even the king respected her and can't order her around.

Two figures walked towards the biggest house in the middle of the group, they are the king and the royal advisor. Once they arrived in the front door of the house, the king wanted to knock the door, but when he about to lift his hand, the door suddenly opened without anyone opening it.

The elves not surprised, because they know that besides as an oracle, Leena is a strong mage. Opening a door from afar is just as easy as lifting her hand.

"please, come in." A voice inside the house said.

Both of the elves entered the small house and saw an old woman sitting on a chair near to the window.

"Your Holiness." The king greets the oracle.

"please take a seat Your Majesty, I will make a cup of tea for you. Oh sorry there is only two chairs in the house, and I didn't expect that the respected Advisor has time to visit my humble dwelling." The Oracle apologetically smiled, but in the eyes of the advisor, it is more like a grin than a smile.

"it's okay your Holiness. This old bone used to sit on a cozy and soft chair, so I can't sit on a wooden chair, it will make my body hurt." Replied the advisor while smiling. The Oracle just snorting while making tea.

"I apologize, there is only two cups in the house, so I only made two cups of tea, one for His Majesty, and because I am a bit thirsty I made this one for me. I hope the respected advisor will take no offend for this." The oracle said.

'you can drink the whole river if you really that thirsty, you old hag.' The advisor said in his mind, annoyed.

"it's okay, your holiness, I am used to..." the advisor about to reply when the king cut off his words.

"alright both of you. Your Holiness, is there something urgent that you want to confey." The king said. He sighed, and thought, 'how can I forget that these two oldies is a bit odd, always fighting each other like kids.'

The king know about the history about these two old elves. They were from the same era and always competing with each other since they were small. He heard about this story from his father, and personally experienced this whenever they gathered.

The Oracle chuckled, she looked at the advisor and gave him a victorious expression. The Advisor just replied with a snort.

"last night I have a revelation." The oracle said with a serious expression.

Both the male elves became very curious. They both know that aside from her oddity, she is a capable oracle, her prediction almost have a 100% accuracy. But if the things that came in the revelation were just trivial things she always ignored them. But now that she even calling the king over, it must be something big.

"there will be a big change in the world, not just in the continent, but the world." The oracle said.

Aydin and Ammer surprised when they heard this.

"can you tell us in detail?" the advisor asked seriously.

"I can't. What I saw was very limited. I saw a man with six dragons shadows above his head, he made me very scared, when I saw him it felt like he can see me. And I saw many lifeless bodies on the ground, blood, people crying over bodies, destroyed city walls, armies marching to a same direction." The oracle said while her face showed a scared expression. The eyes of the man in the revelation always haunting her since last night.

"it seems like there will be something big in the near future, and I feel like it will happen soon."
