Training in the mountains

After a day has passed and everything has calmed down within the village, I went to Rose to talk about what she did to the high rank looking officer. I was kinda curious as to what kind of old business does she want with the human officer, but if she doesn't want to say it, I won't pry into it. From what I have seen so far about Rose is that she may look relaxed and a bit of a clumsy airhead sometimes but when it is her time to do a duty as chief, she is all serious, it's a completely different aura that she emits.

While I was walking in the halls of this big house, I start to think what I must do to get to the beastkin place like where the fox kin and the like. I started having conversation with Sora inside my head while walking, it is almost like parallel thinking because I can focus on walking and talking with others but also be able to have conversation with Sora at the same time, quite an amazing ability I should say so myself.

"Sora, I wanna go to a Human kingdom next but before I go and start messing with some humans, I want to have some fluffy moment so where is the settlement of the beastkins, I might as well surprise Himari~ AHAHAHAHAHA!" - Eisha

(Sora: You sound like a villain who is about to do something evil, well you do look like someone who needs to go to a mental hospital)

"I am a genius!" - Eisha

(Sora: wipe off that idiotic smirk off your face, anyways you can use your space control to instantly go there)

"Nope, I want to go on an adventure remember? so show me the path!" - Eisha

(Sora: to all readers, I humbly apologize of what has become of my master, Eisha)

"What?" - Eisha

(Sora: nothing you idiot sandwich)

Anyways, Sora gave me the directions I needed like a HUD or heads-up display of a map, but to be exact, it's a floating screen with the pathways, topography, and weather displayed. It is like those online maps used to get directions, traffic, and weather details but in this world, the locals don't need such a thing so I turned off the weather forecast function because this is an adventure journey.

After sorting out the functions and studying where I should go and of course, no more misunderstandings with the first impression. I have learned my lesson on my first meeting with the elves, probably.

I have reached the room where Rose is, and Hana was also there with Rose talking together like sisters again. When I approached them, they both thanked me for what I have done and after thanking me, I started to ask the questions I have in mind for Rose and I don't mind Hana hearing it because they are sisters.

"Who was the high rank looking person and what did you do to him?" - Eisha

"Took care of a pest, that's all~" - Rose

"Pest? are there insects roaming around?" - Hana

"No need to worry about it Hana" - Eisha

I avoided the topic since Hana sounded so innocent so I stopped and went with the other questions I still have in mind which is kinda worrying me on what kind of answers I will get. I asked Rose about the situation of the Beastkin as well as the situation with the humans in a bit more detail.

Rose answered that the elves have established a long agreement with the beastkin about alliance and trade. The alliance with the beastkin helped maintain the borders to be safe but due to high tensions with the humans, it is very difficult to maintain the safety on the borders. The alliance also provide each other support in case anything bad happens but luckily, I am here when the sudden war happened. Trade is something common, business matters.

Beastkins and Elves trade a lot of things from food to weaponry and magic. They trade a lot these things with each other and offering different things to support each other, but trade has been cut off due to the wars with the humans and of course, the safety on the borders.

It has become such a wide scale problem plus for it being political which I am not fond of so I won't go into that direction, I am not the type to go all political and listen to politician's empty promises though there are some that are good.

Remember folks, if a bee stings you and goes back to its hive, burn it all~ because you can't search each and every single one individually who did it, just burn it all to ashes or better...vaporize it so that not a single spec of dust is left.

After knowing what I am going to go through in my journey, I remembered the promise I made for Hana.

"Before I go, the three of us should go to the Galaeron forest" - Eisha

I just gave my casual smile which I hope is not bad, and we three walked to the Galaeron forest with some guards assisting us because it is still not yet safe, and I don't want to say anything right now because I used a mind magic to see through their memories and saw where their parents have died.

Hana once said to me that she wanted to meet her mother again, to hear her voice one last time, and I am sure Rose would want that too since she has been focused on doing what the previous chief or should I say, their parent's work.

Upon reaching the area in the Galaeron forest where their parents have died, I turned towards Hana and Rose only to see sadness and confusion in the face of Rose but for Hana, she is shocked like she is wondering as to how I know this place even though she didn't tell me. I just casually smiled and just activated the spell.

"Vale" - Eisha

After I said that word, two orbs of light started to float around before it starts glowing brighter and started forming shape. Both Hana and Rose are stunned once again when the two orbs of light started dancing around, glowing brighter, before reaching its final shape. The two orbs of light turned into the mother and father of Hana and Rose.

All four of them were crying, and as for the soldiers in the background, you can forget them because they became like statues so nothing to worry about.

(Sora: I think you should worry about it because they are here to protect and serve, not become like you or a statue)

I really want to set the mood out here Sora so please don't destroy it, and seeing them embracing each other together once last time, it reminded me again of Yoru. Ever since that night, Yoru would never leave my mind at all like something is telling me that something happened to Yoru but I can't seem to remember back in that nightmare.

I just left the four of them settle everything out since it is their last family time together before parting.

When everything went back to normal and having said their last goodbyes before their parents starts to fade away, I remembered my only family.

I really need to stop thinking about it because it is just bringing some painful sensation in my mind, and I just need to think of what's in front of me and ahead of me right this moment.

"Eisha, thank you..." - Hana

"Yup, thank you as well, Eisha" - Rose

"I am your friend so no need to thank me, anyways, I'll be going on my adventure, thank you for the hospitality, see guys again soon~!" - Eisha

I said my goodbyes to everyone else so I can become an actual adventurer, and I ran towards the mountain range and out the Galaeron forest in just a matter of seconds because seriously, my agility is out of scale after all.

Getting out of the forest, I suddenly had the idea to start training myself a bit because I don't want to be destroying everything I see, and learning some self control due to my broken powers can help me a bit on stealth as well as not killing anyone right away like what happened in the war.

(Sora: since when have you done anything stealthy, and even if you have to do stealth missions, I am sure you won't do it at all)

I am a stealthy person because I can create any spells and freely manipulate magic at will, and stealth is an option even if it says necessary in the mission because it will work out in the end anyways.

Before I pass through the mountain ranges and enter the territory of the beastkins, I wanted to try out a spell that I created just to intimidate and show my power when doing the so called 'negotiations' with the humans if necessary of course.

Twilight Zone turns the sky to a twilight and my golden eyes glow as well as my aura becoming visible to the naked eye so that even the people who aren't skilled with magic can even see the materialized aura of mine.

"This is quite a good one for me, time to use it!" - Eisha

When I started using it, the whole world got encased in my Twilight zone.

"Perfect!" - Eisha

(Sora: no it's not!)

It activated and done what it needs to do, and no harm was done in my worlds as well besides the whole world going dark for a few seconds, so I could say it is indeed perfect.

No one can tell me what to do actually, because I can just slap the king's face without any problem and I am immortal as well, so I can't die.

I did some more training like making the destructive power of a fireball a bit weaker to the point it is like a hand grenade explosion and I could easily increase its power to the point that I somehow turned the face of a mountain to a fiery mountain because it created a mushroom cloud and the rocks have melted forming lava that is flowing down.

"I hope no one has seen this from afar..." - Eisha

(Sora: anyone who is within the few hundred kilometre radius heard it you....I can't take this anymore, just please don't give me any headache and do what you need to do...)

"Will do~!" - Eisha

I continued my training in the mountain ranges without restraint and also not thinking of the consequences it will bring, as long as that I can control my power I will spend a few months in this mountain if I have to just to tone down my powers.

I tried various other spells like some kind of pressurized water spell that can cut anything, lightning that can hit a target I wanted though I miss the target sometimes, and improving my space manipulation skills so that if ever there's an emergency, I can instantly teleport to places I have been.

So far, I have been doing lots of research like a battle maniac or a crazy scientist but I am still okay and have not lost my sanity in this lonely cold place on the mountain ranges, and I have not forgotten about me going to the beastkin race territory.

I don't know how long exactly I have stayed in this mountain because Sora wouldn't tell me, but I could say I have stayed here for a long time already. My sense of time isn't very accurate unlike the elves who wake up early and can sleep late but have no problems at all, wish I could do that.

I have turned the mountain range into a testing site for my spells and magic. Some parts have melted and hardened because of extreme heat, others are in pieces or dust because of either explosions or slicing, and some have shaped unnaturally and many more things that makes a certain part of this mountain which is my testing site a surreal place.

"I am pretty sure when I leave this place and someone sees it, I will be embarrassed with all the failures and experiments with magic that I have done in this place..." - Eisha

(Sora: let me ask you something calmly...)

"Okay?" - Eisha

(Sora: ARE YOU TRYING TO DESTROY YOUR WORLD OR ARE YOU GOING TO WAR?!)

I answered Sora that it is for protection and 'negotiation', and I am wondering where the calm part even appeared in the question.

After all the experiments I have done on this mountain range, I finally decided I should head to the beastkin race and talk to Himari as well as the priestess. As I was about to leave, I blew up the whole testing site and destroy any traces of my experiments as much as possible. I have used powerful explosion spells and I also went full on otaku like mode chanting a poem just to do a spell.

After the site was completely destroyed, I used my abilities to the fullest and continue my journey towards the beastkin, and the time I have spent in the mountain was a whole year and not a few weeks or a few months, so I was a little shocked, I hope nothing changed for a long time I was experimenting.

"Let's go! Fluffy time here I come!" - Eisha

(Sora: Everyone, I truly apologize on behalf of the rude and idiot genius master, I shall be 'lecturing' her when I get a body)

"What?" - Eisha

(Sora; continue on with your journey)

and with that, I took the first step on my adventurer journey to see some cute and fluffy beastkin.
