Location

"Mother... why do we live in a forest?"

"Because the kingdoms don't like us."

"But your the nicest person I know, and father isn't like that, so what gives?"

"Honey... I will try to explain in the future."

"Explain what?"

"The reason for all of this."

Accidental Reincarnation.

3 months after Minshukus's defeat, he was back at the academy. all was well, and he was doing okay. Although he still wanted to know what happened to everybody in his village. He was slowly losing interest in the goal at all.

It was early morning, and Minshuku just woke up. He decided to go for a walk to prepare for the day. Wolfkami was still sleeping, so he made sure to be quiet when leaving. after leaving his room, he closed the door gently and went for his walk.

The morning was still fresh, and you could hear people begin to wake up. minshuku liked the noise, as it was better than hearing people screaming, or people with resentment towards something. just peaceful chatter and laughing here and there. He Quitley kept walking.

Eventually, he arrived at the field, Where caccha of all people were sitting.

"Hey." Caccha's Hey was filled with a lot of regrets, I guess it makes sense seeing as he has ignored minshuku for a while. Minshuku responded with a more awkward "Hello" Seeing as he didn't expect caccha. he didn't know whether to be pissed off or excited to see him.

"Listen, I know it's been a while, but I got some news for you." This was what minshuku was waiting for. The location of where this Truth Teller person is. "Is it good?" Caccha responded with a bit more cheerful "I mean it depends..." Minshuku was delighted. to be able to finally end this annoying curiosity, and find out what happened to everybody in his village.

"The location of the truth-teller... I know where his temple lies."

"So it's a temple hm? That's cool."

"I mean, sure. it's just there's one problem."

"What?"

"It's in Emperor Zhou's territory."

Emperor Zhou, or as He likes to be called, Lord Zhou, is known throughout the world as the strongest warrior known to man. it is also stated that he rarely uses magic, and relies on his two massive battle hammers more often. his battle armor has Anti magic spells on it to prevent Magic from harming him. It also just so happens that the Truth tellers Temple is in a forest that's in Zhou's territory, and only people in his main Squad can go in.

"You have to be joking, right?"

Minshuku heard a lot of things about Lord Zhou, mostly that he was a very cruel individual, and that it Is hard to get on his good side. Minshuku was practically shitting his pants at the thought of having to go to Zhou's territory. but he also wants to know the truth...

"I just wanted to let you know about Where the truth-teller is. now that I held up my end of the deal, I will no longer be acquainted with you."

"Wait, why?"

"Because I no longer have a reason to know you. you did your part and I did mine. now I'll be taking my leave."

As caccha left, minshuku stood there in shock. he didn't understand why Caccha wanted nothing to do with him anymore. but at least he got the info.

Minshuku walked back inside, not thinking about what happened when he saw Obtone. obtone rushed over to minshuku and asked him what they should eat for breakfast, but he noticed minshuku looked odd.

"Hey shuku, you good?"

"Yea, why?"

"You just seem odd."

"I'm going to the zhou district soon."

"What."

Caccha was shocked to hear that from minshuku, especially seeing as Minshuku didn't seem too fond of going there.

"I know where the truth-teller is. He's in the Zhou district."

"But I hear rumors and-"

"I Have to, but I need to end my curiosity."

"Minshuku.... it's... Dangerous."

"Will you come with me?

Obtone thought hard about this question. he didn't want to be alone, but at the same time, he was scared to death by Lord Zhou.

"MInshuku, You don't have to go... just stay here..."

"Yes or no."

"Minshuku, Please..."

"Answer the question."

"No."

"Obtone's fear of zhou outweighed his fear of losing minshuku. he didn't want to go to Zhou's district, as he feared he would lose his life."

"Okay then, ill be leaving."

Minshuku teleporter away, and Obtone stood there, feeling sadness, anger, but most importantly.... Regret. although he was surprised that minshuku just left, he did also kind of expect it. he just didn't think it would be right away.

"Alone... Again..."

Obtone stood there, and as the bells rang, everybody rushed to their classes, and obtone ended up being absent all day. Once again, he was left alone.
