Apology

Kai was sitting outside his house, and had just read some things from the old book he had found in one of the guard's house, then he hid it again and sat cross legged.

' That Toot Bat's technique isn't as hard as I thought before, but one mistake could make my throat to explode so I need to first understand just how much energy I need to use. ' he thought, but the only reason he believed it is easy is because of his knowledge from his previous life about the sound attacks.

With all kinds of thoughts in his mind, he silently walked back to his bed and lay there before closing his eyes, now he had decided to go through an even more intense training.

After a sleep of only around five hours, he woke up at 6, Emily and Ron were still sleeping, then he sat up on the bed and began to train again.

But he was still being extra careful around his mother, two more days passed just like that while Kai went as hard about training as his small body could allow him.

On the morning of the third day, while everyone was busy with their daily tasks, they all heard the sound of several horses running after which they all heard the loud voice of a man.

" I'm here to represent Sir Rojas, I ask all of you to come out and give a few minutes of your time. "

When this man spoke, the hearts of all the people again became chilly, they were afraid that Rojas had sent these men here to punish them but the next words allowed them all to relax quite a bit.

" Sir Rojas would like to apologize to all of you for all the events that happened during his previous visit, under the sorrow of the news of his son getting injured he wasn't able to think properly and ended up doing some things that he regrets greatly, we are here to apologize and compensate all of you. "

After he spoke he gestured towards one of the men, who brought out a big bag that contained many pouches, each containing two silver coins, then they walked from house to house and delivered all the pouches, after apologizing once again he also told them that all the men who had accompanied Rojas that day were all heavily punished.

Most of the people felt happy after receiving the free money, but most knew better than to trust someone like Rojas, they knew that the branch family must have forced him to do all this, and he would definitely make trouble for them in the future.

Kai paid all this no attention and he diligently trained, while also spending time with his father and mother, he knew the only reasons he was easily able to kill that tall man was because he was very drunk and it was a sneak attack, he wasn't sure if he could have even fought him for more than five minutes before getting killed.

His days were passing fruitfully, but he also knew that just training here wouldn't be enough and that only by travelling to dangerous places could he find some benefits.

" Leo, do you want me to bring anything for your birthday? " Ron asked, it was already the night time and Kai's fifth birthday was very close, he was sitting beside his father while Emily sat in front of them.

" Hmm, The spicy snacks. " Kai said after thinking for a while, Emily nodded in agreement, she also loves those snacks.

" Okay, extra spicy and super crunchy snacks for the both of you. " Ron said, while patting Kai's shoulder.

" When are you leaving? " Emily asked, hoping that the three of them could celebrate Kai's birthday together.

" If I leave tomorrow then I'll be able to return in... Four days, perfect then we would be able to celebrate Leo's birthday together. " Ron said and hugged his wife and son.

" By the way I heard from a neighbour of ours that she had once seen something small moving in our lawn but since it was too dark she wasn't able to see anything. " Emily spoke as she remembered this, Ron pondered her words and then spoke:

" It definitely can't be a blazing monkey since those guys glow in the dark I wonder if there are other beasts coming in this area. "

Kai stayed silent, he could still remember this incident when he was just about to climb the roof of his house to watch the battle when he saw that someone was looking in his direction from the window of their house, although he was quickly able to hid but he was sure that she must have seen his shadow.

They had already eaten the dinner and after talking for some more time among them, they all went back to sleep, and just like usual Kai sneaked outside, he again took the book out of the bushes and began to read the next part, there wasn't much left.

" Everyone starts training from the age of twelve, only after gathering enough energy and proper technique are they finally able to create their energy centre, after which they are divided into the paths of martial artists and mages.

The power system is divided into 'Orders' for martial artists and 'Orbits' for mages, even though the names are different but they both possess similar strength.

These categories are further divided into tiers, each Order and Orbit has three tiers and the training of all three body, mind and energy centres is different. "

When Kai tried to read more about this topic, he found that the next pages were actually missing from the book, with a disappointed look he closed the book and fell into deep thoughts.
