Farewell, young warrior!

"Ah, I was waiting for you!" The man waited for Akira and called his name.

Akira didn't know him, but he knew his name. He felt odd, hence, so he believed he had one of those future sight abilities. He said it correctly, said the man without Akira said a word. He was looking forward to meeting him, so he left a message near his drawer in his room. The man said that Shirahoshi talked a lot about him and that it was a pleasant word. He wanted to meet him so he could have a chat with him. 

Akira asked if the princess was awake the whole time when he slept. He said that Shirahoshi didn't have to sleep; her abilities allowed her to stay active, so if she needed to replenish energy, she only needed to rest or just enjoy a cup of tea. 

He introduced himself as "Rakyu Tomi" as his name. He also said that he was a cavalry captain of the knights. He wasn't in a kingdom because he was the prince, and so he went to another kingdom to do things as a prince would. He explained it simply as "the prince's problem." Since he knew Akira's facial expression, he was completely clueless.

Akira shifted the subject of what he wanted to ask, and so he asked him to sit down on the chair and gave him a snack he bought from "Soudin Kingdom."

First, he wanted to talk about what she saw, he said that his ability was only able to see slightly to the future, he trained this ability to see the enemy's next movements. He said that Shirahoshi couldn't control her powers, the same as their mother could. He stated she had weird dreams that were soon to come for the right person whom she would meet, later on.

So he assumed that she was talking about Akira, he said this was because she talked about him on such a rare occasion since she never explained about a person with wordy words.

He said that she trusted him to save their father. He was amused that Akira had immortality. He said that every future she saw was accurate and there was nothing she couldn't see, but this was very odd for Shirahoshi, as she informed her brother.

Akira thought maybe Shirahoshi was overly exaggerated; his ability had meaning but he didn't know why. He said that he couldn't see the depth of his skills because every time he did that, an error occurred. Every single skill he saw was censored by unknown words. He thought this was because he hadn't leveled up yet.

He wasn't sure if it was a code or something unless it was true what she said about him, so he had to be wary of what may come. He stated that his system was meaningful after he thought it was meaningless.

After Kazoru explained about skills and abilities, he probably assumed that his ability was divine. The main ability had many excessive skills for him to use, but he could only see weapons, blood, and necromancy. Necromancy was useful and cool, but how was it related to blood magic? He only guessed that it only needed the enemy's blood when dead to be used.

Rakyu then explained what the systems were all about. He explained that the system had this level; the level was only for unlocking the limits of their abilities. If one was trained enough, one would get this level-up system. The level-up system only focused on skill points, not stats. If someone was trained and trained enough, they would raise their levels, so to speak, their stats.

The logic was that this was fair for those who had their abilities come from their family since stats could only be raised when one used their magic and trained themselves not by levels.

Akira was in utter bafflement. He didn't know what he was talking about. He knew for certain that when he saved Julia by killing that serpent, and leveled up and gained a boost in his stats.

Rakyu corrected that it was probably when he used magic or his main ability.

"I see; now I finally understand!" Akira finally realised something when he fought the serpent. 

He could regenerate parts of his body and use his main ability. Every time he regenerated, he gained a small boost in his stats. Akira assumed this was probably what the system wanted; when he regenerated, his body grew stronger so he could endure more and increased the level of his strength so he could last longer. 

"Incredible! You get stronger each time you fight. Such passive skills are undoubtedly rare among other warriors. "Incredibly, you could achieve far greater levels in all aspects by simply regenerating over and over." As Rakyu said, when one used their main ability or magic, their stats would grow, and he was also very surprised Akira had such an admirable passive from his immortality. 

"Yea, I wouldn't suggest me doing that. Hurts like hell." Akira strongly disagreed and stated that regeneration was agonizing.

Rakyu then cut to the chase of what he wanted to say. He asked Akira to hold his promise for him. He said to Akira that his boldness was praiseworthy, yet he wanted to lend his trust to him and wanted him to keep his promise.

He said that many kingdoms were like prisons, with many closed borders and many closed gates. He would like to help them, but their lives were at stake, and so was his home, if he was not careful.

The kingdom he wanted to help was these 3.

1. Syverian kingdom.

2. Elysian empire.

3. Ramusha kingdom.

These were the kingdoms that were strict and closed. He said that these kingdoms were like someone taking a hostage. He told Akira to one day free them or destroy their kingdoms. Though, he would probably become a fugitive afterwards...

He said the Elysian empire was very restricted and yet super strict. The Elysian empire was the worst, but he placed it at number 2 since Syverian was way worse.

Even though the Elysian empire was from another region, he couldn't believe that they were still active. He assumed they must have had a new leader. The Elysian empire should have been destroyed, but it was rebuilt.

Akira asked how he could say that.

"The empire had fallen before, and now it was rebuilt and became more powerful than ever. I'd say, ten times more worse than it already is."

"Wait, hold on, you're saying, someone rescued the country by taking down the whole empire?"

"Yes."

"Who was it?"

"One of the sons of the Algeyante kingdom. Sora Algeyante, the hero."

"He took down the whole empire with the help of his allies and friends. His name was known throughout the country. and would be forever hated by those kingdoms."

Akira was flabbergasted in shock when he heard his former mentor's name. He questioned the empire's motivation for subjecting the entire population of that country to suffering.

Rakyu clarified what they were truly after and that was absolute power, their obsession could rip the beauty of nature apart because of their obsession.

As for the Syverian kingdom, they were locked in by notorious criminals who killed their kings and were now locked in and led by those scums. The kingdom was large and was well known, but they were locked for 7 years until now. Outlanders were free to go inside the kingdom but mustn't help them. If they did, then they would be cursed for all eternity.

Their abilities were dangerous and horrifying. And as for the Ramusha, they enslaved many people there. Their king was the worst. 

He had this monstrous group called the Nine Knights. These knights were strong and could possibly be on the same level as a general. They had a very unpleasant political system for a wide and large kingdom that was the size of three islands.

Rakyu sighed, and maybe he was a little overtrusting since there was nothing Akira could do.

"I promise!" Akira answered boldly without hesitation and made Rakyu's eyes widen.

"Really? You're just gonna promise that even if it's impossible?"

"C'mon, thought you could see slight to the future, you should already know what my answers would be." Akira smiled.

Rakyu's hope was lifted and so he handed his trust and so Akira kept his promise. But before that, he wanted to say that there were also kingdoms that were like them. Akira nodded and so he wanted to know where they were.

Rakyu answered that they were from separate regions. He just explained these 7 regions since he didn't know what was the name of the kingdom.

1. Zenric (The country where Akira was living and where Celesta was)

2. Sameria.

3. Glavial.

4. Sanakur.

5. Juvlamn.

6. Ka'ar.

7. Elysia.

And that was all Rakyu wanted to say. Akira nodded, and so they did a handshake, and Akira swore that he would help these kingdoms.

And so Akira departed and said his goodbyes. Rakyu bent lower and placed his left knee on the ground while bowing and placing his hand on his back and in front of his chest. "Farewell, young warrior! For I, Rakyu Tomi Youmu, with my deepest respect, may you continue on a safe journey as I prayed for your safety." Saluted Rakyu.

Akira waved goodbye and so he left the kingdom.
