Whitebolt and Rekka returned. Maids were shocked, but happy to see the boy back. Rekka ran to the park to see his friends, and unexpectedly, he saw Kaito has come back.
-Rekka, you're back! – Screamed Sora when he saw him.
-I am! – Rekka ran to them with a smile.
-Rekka, it's so nice to see you again! – Kaito ran and tightly hugged Rekka.
-Stop it, I can't breathe! – Said Rekka while catching his breath.
Kaito put him down and made a nervous smile.
-Sorry, my bad! Hehe.
They then all laughed. Rekka was surprised that Kaito was like before, not being depressed. For the whole day they played together like the old days. Kaito suddenly approached Rekka.
-Rekka? – He asked.
-Yes? – Rekka realized Kaito didn't have a joking tone.
-I thought about this for a long time but, - Kaito took a deep breath – I want to become an adventurer and be in your party!
Everyone's jaws dropped.
-What? – Rekka was in shock.
-Am I too weak... - Said Kaito in a sad tone.
-What, no! I was just shocked to hear that out of nowhere. Okay, let's become adventurers together.
-Wait, wait, wait. – Sora approached them – Don't you know how dangerous that occupation is?
-I'll want to be like my older sister and become a healer, so I can save as many people I can. – Said Maeko.
-Huh? – Sora was in shock – What's wrong with all of you, making decisions for the future so abruptly? – Sora looked at them and crossed his hands – Well, I think I have no other choice to join you all as well.
Rekka happily smiled.
-Let's all get stronger together! – He shouted.
-There is one problem... - Said Kaito.
-How do we get stronger... - Continued Sora.
An awkward silence suddenly fell.
-Let's enroll in the Battle Academy together! – Said Rekka with confidence.
-That's not a bad idea. – Said Sora – In the meantime, we can exercise!
They all discussed what to do and came to a conclusion. Rekka would teach them the basics. He returned home, trained a little bit, ate and went to sleep. The next day, when he was eating breakfast, Whitebolt told him.
-Want to train together?
-Sure! – Answered Rekka. He had forgiven Whitebolt.
They immediately headed towards the training grounds.
-So Rekka, last time when we were training, I was teaching you fire manipulation, did you master it.
Rekka made a confident smile and took a stance. He created two fireballs in each of his hands and threw them. In midair, he made them split. Rekka laughed and looked at Whitebolt. He saw was that Whitebolt was a shocked.
-You never cease to amaze me. – Said Whitebolt and giggled – Now then, what do you want to learn?
-Teach me your technique, please! – Said Rekka and bowed.
-Whoa, no need to bow down. Don't you already know how to use it?
Rekka created a short sword and swung it. On the third swing, it disappeared.
-So you don't know how to keep it's form? – Asked Whitebolt.
-Yes! What can I do?
-The answer is going to shock you, but, you just need to use your imagination. – Said Whitebolt in a laughing tone.
-What?
-If you want to create a spear, visualize it in your head and don't stop. – He created a spear in his hand – If you want to create a sword, visualize a sword, and so on.
-It's only that? – Asked surprised Rekka.
-Well, you need to need to make the weapons solid, but you only already learned how to control density of MP. It shouldn't be hard for you.
-I'm going to try.
Rekka created a short sword.
-Imagine the sword, imagine the sword. – He thought to himself.
He created the sword, this time, it lasted ten swings. He then created long sword, but it could only last one swing.
-Keep going like this and you will master it in no time. – Whitebolt tried to cheer Rekka up.
This kind of training continued a week. In the meantime, Rekka was teaching his friends the basics of magic.
*Meantime in Devils Wasteland*
-This is it! This will help me! – Jetos looked it awe at his opponent.
It was a Death Dragon. It was black with purple eyes, sharp teeth and was spewing purple flames.
-This can be a Threat 12, even Threat 13!
Filled with excitement, Jetos tried to attack it. He tried to piece it with Void Arm, but he could only scratch it. The dragon attacked him, but Jetos dodged it and counter attacked. The dragon flew up and started burning the place around.
-These flames are strong enough to hurt me, I guess I need to fight seriously. – He made a nasty smile.
His eyes suddenly from green, turned into purple light that covered the whole eyes. Purple mist appeared around the place. Jetos was able to move freely in it. After a long battle, Jetos couldn't hurt the creature. He stopped. The dragon turned the empty desert into a purple hellfire.
-Void Consumption, Emedis. – Said Jetos in a menacing tone.
A giant portal appeared below the Death Dragon. From it, Void Arms started to come out. The dragon tried to flew away and spewed fire on them, but they didn't take damage.
-You can't run away from the inevitable. – Said Jetos and laughed.
The arms caught up with the dragon in the air. Multiple of them tightly gripped the dragon and ripped it apart, painfully killing it. Jetos approached its victim and took out a large, black crystal from it's forehead.
-This isn't much, but will be more than enough. – He then hysterically laughed, opened a portal and went inside.
