Hidden Treasure and Rest {1}

"Now the last thing is to explore the treasury of this frozen temple…" I muttered those sentences softly as I loosened the grip of this beast's tail.

The little black beast landed on the ground easily without falling down. He looked at my mom with a childlike expression, he came near to her side. He gently rubbed his head to the sides of her legs. My mom kneels down to the ground and pat his head. Within a few minutes it was attached to my mother as her own pet. My mom was happy to play and care for her as a new pet. Unlike with Silvia and me, he didn't spat the fire onto her, instead he was enjoying the embrace of my mom.

My mom's maternal care is really strong like in the previous life. She wasn't bothered by evil existing in this world but instead she ignorantly stayed happily in this town. So it is true, true evil exists outside our outside world; she grew up in a small village devoid of such calamities. She's naïve due to upbringing, she doesn't belong to this bloody violent world. That's why I wanted to protect her and I'll bring her real son back to his life.

I was determined even more.

I cut off my internal monologue.

"Mom, take to the treasury and items in this frozen temple? I'm really tired, I need to rest to replenish my energy and we have to leave the village forever!" I said.

Hearing this my mother trembled a lot. "My son, this is the town where I was born and lived till now, naturally I'm bonded with this village. I know my child, you've great talent towards magic and to be a strong mage in this entire kingdom. But your mother doesn't want to leave this village and the people despite what happened before…" She clenched her fist until her hands became white.

"Mom, I don't want to argue with you." I said with a pause. "I want you to understand my point of view, didn't you also see what did to me and want you. To them, I'm a satan's child who killed their innocent children… They don't want us to enjoy it while they are mourning. Come with me, mom. I'll find a place where we can live peacefully. Please my mom do the first ever favour I'm asking from you!" I pretended to be begging and tearful as an ordinary 7 year old boy would be.

My single mother nodded her head after a moment of little resistance. And about Silvia… I noticed her teary sad eyes looking at me with untold pain coming from my playmate. I acted with sympathy and placed my right hand on top of her head and patted on back and forth like consoling a baby.

She isn't mature as I do and for certain reasons.

She might not be able to see me for a decent amount of time.

"Don't worry my friend, I'll find some time to meet you again and play. It's a better choice for all of us right now, please understand!"

There were tears coming from her cute little eyes. She's an innocent and immature child unlike me. She is one of Daris's beloved ones which I'll protect. More I realized as the time passed in the land that I didn't belong to this world and I belonged to my old world perfectly.

After calming her down, I grabbed her arm and started walking near my mom. Once again, I'd grabbed her hands and said, "I'd had enough of this coldness of this place, now we hatched this egg and go grab the last stuff here in this place!"

"Yes!" they said in unison.

We'd kept walking in the lead of my mom and that infinity beast which was in her embrace. The frozen temple had long chained routes of endless maze here and there, for someone new who would come to this place with no fore knowledge would surely get lost easily in these tunnels. But due to my mother's deep knowledge of this place, we'd be able to avoid any missteps along the way.

'Mom had come here often to have this accurate memory of this place. I know that she must have kept a lot of secrets behind Daris's back which he knew nothing of.'

I walked behind her and silvia.

[You don't like this place don't you. From your internal monologue, I can feel you're quite impatient to return back to the real world. This sense of urgency is good which can help you feel to reach the pinnacle of this world with more motivation.]

Cingar chatted in my head.

I had something to ask him.

'I know it will take decades worth of years for me to reach the pinnacle of this world in this body. When I return back to my own real world, would my mother already be dead or the time on the earth would accelerate as well with this world's time?' I asked

[Good question. There is a huge difference in time from your previous world and this world due to the distance and size gap in the different placement in the milky galaxy. The longer and wider the distance these two worlds will have slow time to accelerate between them. The earth is close to the sun and moon which cause the time to accelerate at a fast pace but this continent is faraway from them so expect quite a lot of slow time acceleration compared to the earth.]

I got convinced right now. So to keep it simple, my life here will take a few minutes on the earth's time. I sighed a breath, I can still see my mother and him… Ram Raghav again.

I was getting worked up by thinking about his name and image.

I increase the pace of my walking.

[You're not a failure. Compared to the geniuses, you are still pushing against your bad luck. That's an honorable feat for a non-genius like you. Those who crave history are hardworking and persevering people despite unluckiness.]

I heard the quote with silence. All I want is to keep pushing myself to the limit. I still need the power…

Author's note: I put more effort into completing today's schedule. Like Cingar, I'm going against my luck. I'm not planning to give up! All Hail to Fang Yuan's Perseverance!
