Chapter 20: Peak of mortal boundary
The Seft family's reunion made Alfred happy, as one of his problems was finally solved. He pulled all possible strings so that he could find out about Kai's whereabouts.
What made him curious was, where was Kai all these years? Even more, how did Kai become a magic user? If he remembered correctly, Kai didn't have any magic channels, so how did he become a Magic Master? What happened to Kai in the while he was gone?
Looking at the Sefts, who were laughing and crying, Alfred could not bring himself to ruin the mood. "Maybe I will just ask later," he thought.
Kai, seeing the happy faces of his parents, felt a sense of joy from the depths of his heart.
"Son, where have you been all these years? How did you become a magic user, when the Town master said you will never become one?" asked Bolt looking for answers in Kai's eyes.
Hearing Bolt's question, Alfred who was standing at a distance also became interested.Bolt's question was the same as the one which had been bothering him.
Kai froze, he remembered what master Daoma had told him and looked at his parents.
'Fogive me mother, father. I will let you guys know the truth later. Forgive me.'
"Just make a half-real half-fake story. One which can convince your parents. Don't tell me you don't even have the brains to think up a solution for this. Why did I get such a pig-headed disciple."voice of shouting Daoma resonates in his head.
Seeing Kai's frozen face, Tarika reproached Bolt, "Dear its fine, Kai will tell us everything when he is ready to."
Hearing Tarika, Alfred felt as if a tub of water just fell on his head.
"Mother, it isn't a problem. All these years I have been with my master."
"Master? Who is he ? Is he also the same person who helped you become a Magic user ?" asked Bolt.
"Yes father. He not only helped me become a Magic user but he also made me a Magic Master." Kai said.
"So, where does this master of yours live anyways Kai?" Alfred asked as he joined in the conversation between Kai and his parents.
"He lives in the core area of the Forbidden forest. He is also the supreme ruler of the Forbidden Forest."
"Core area, you say? So there must have been many powerful beasts, right? So how did you manage to survive there when you first got sent to that place?" asked Alfred.
"My luck was just good, and when I got there, my master was passing by. He is the only human in the whole Forbidden Forest. He is a little strange at times but I cannot forget how he helped me achieve my childhood dream of becoming a Magic user." said Kai, smiling with a feeling of respect.
Though this story was fake, Kai came to know and learn many things since the time he accepted Daoma as his master.
In his one year with magic training, he wholeheartedly tried to absorb all the knowledge Daoma possessed, without leaving a single thing out, but the more he knew, the more he found that there were so many things that still needed to be learnt.
Hearing Kai, Bolt and Tarika were more or less convinced, but Alfred seemed to have became very serious.
The hall became silent.
"Is something wrong, Lord Alfred?" Bolt asked.
"Kai, whatever you said until now was true?" asked Alfred.
Kai, without any hesitation, replied, "It's completely true."
"Kai, you said you were in the core region of the Forbidden Forest and that there are many magic beasts there. Can you tell me what are the ranks of the magic beasts there and what stage is your master currently at? Kai, you must know that our town is near the Forbidden Forest. If something wrong were to happen, many lives will be lost. It's not only important to the town but the whole kingdom," asked Alfred seriously.
Kai looked at Alfred, who was standing by the table, with a grave expression, as if his life depended on this topic, while Bolt and Tarika were silent and the elder was sitting attentively while they talked.
Feeling the seriousness of the topic, Kai replied honestly, "The beasts in the core region are mostly between rank 4 and rank 6, and there are 6 half-rank 7 beasts, but you don't have to worry, all of them are trapped inside a barrier created by my master, who is above the Magic Champion stage."
Hearing Kai's reply, Alfred was shaken to his very core.
Thinking about the power of rank 4 beasts, he was already scared, not to mention rank 6, which were equal to the most powerful magic user in the continent. He swallowed his saliva, not daring to speak another word.
Seeing the frightened expression on Alfred's face, Kai didn't feel surprised after finding out that all magic beasts were above rank 3, which were rare in the continent, not to mention rank 6 ones.
Returning to his senses, Alfred looked at Kai.
"Kai, prepare yourself for a journey to the Capital. I have to go there to report this and you are coming with me as a witness."
Hearing Alfred's sudden order,
Kai felt surprised. "Why ? Can't you go on your own. I just got home. I want to send sometime with my parents"
Alfred shook his head, replied with a serious expression, "I need a witness. Even if the royal family doesn't believe it, you still have to go with me. It's related to the life and death of the Kingdom."
Hearing that Kai looked at his mother and father.
Tarika smiled,"if it's really related to life and death of people. You must go, don't worry about us; Just knowing that you are alive and don't well is more than enough. You are now a magic users and had a vast future ahead of you and cannot not always be beside us."
"Your mother correct son. We are going nowhere and you can return back after the meeting. We can wait for some for days and your mother and father are still young and does not need you to look after us."
Hearing that Kai turned his head and agreed.
Alfred was delighted and thanked his parents.
He knows that it's wrong for him to separate the son and parents who have meet after eleven years but he didn't have a choose; many lives are at stake here.
"Kai, you can go now. I will notify you when the preparations are ready for the journey."
Without giving Kai a chance to speak, he asked an elder to lead them outside the town hall.
Seeing the town hall's closed doors, Kai looked at his parents. It has not been a single day and he already had to go to the capital, leaving them behind. Though he wanted to go to the Capital, he didn't expect it to happen so quickly.
Seeing the sad expression on thier son face.
Tarika said "Let's go, I will make your favorite food for lunch,"she held Kai's hand and dragged him back to the inn.
On his way back to the inn, Kai felt as if a huge stone in his heart was finally lifted and a sensation of a breakthrough.
It's has been one year since he became a Magic Master and now he felt the shackles of the Grandmaster stage becoming loose. He could enter the Grandmaster stage any time he wanted now.
Retuning back to his house.
He spent the morning helping Tarika with her work and eating his favorite food made by his mother, making him delighted and happy.
It was currently evening, the sun was on the horizon as Kai was sitting in his room and preparing to charge to the Grandmaster realm. He opened the window, jumped out wearing his magic clothes and started flying. Quickly leaving, he landed 10 km away from the town, where no one would disturb him and sat on the ground.
As Kai sat down meditating, all his senses got cut off the world.
He could hear the sound of chains and a golden chain that was connected to his body suddenly broke down with a large noise as a surge of magic entered inside his body.
Within a single moment, the magic pool inside of Kai's body started to expand and Kai felt like his body was getting torn from the inside due to the sudden increase from 1000 to 10,000 magic power.
Slowly, the pain disappeared and Kai opened his eyes.
When he heard the excited voice of the spirit of myraid world ring who had been in great slumber for one year.
"Congratulations on your breakthrough master. You are getting closer to being able to meet the minimum requirements to use my power without using origin bloodline."
Kai can only nodded his head with bitter heart.
"Kira, Can I use the power of myraid world ring to change the destiny of my parents."
Kira is the name Kai had come up for this tiny girl spirit. Since, morning he has been thinking about using the ring power to change their body to be able to cultivate.
He does not want them to die like s mortal, when he has the power to change their destiny.
"I don't think that will be necessary, master."
"Why?"said Kai with doubt.
"They already have great destiny. Master may not be able to see thier destiny but do you really think. They can give birth with to you without with no background."
Kai nodded.
"I believe, they will have their fruitful incounter in the future. So, master doesn't need to do it nor do I think they are interested in world of magic user and satisfacted with thier current. I would also suggest you tell them everything which occurred in forbidden forest aside from your origin bloodline. After all, they are your parents and the have the right to know."
Kai placed his hand on his chin and throught for a moment and nodded.
"I would go with your suggestions."
Kira smiled and returned back to ring.
While he looked at the setting sun and
infused his legs with magic and jumped up in the air.
The pressure from his legs made a crater in the ground. With a whoop he activated the flight magic function of his magic clothes and zoomed towards the town.
Retuning back to his home, Kai enjoyed the delicious food made by her mother as they talked joyfully.
He asked them for thier forgiveness and used a temporary Rune magic to seal the entire room.
Tarika and Bolt were stunned, on the walls of thier entire house, golden symbols were folating around.
"This is a rune magic to stop the sound from going out of our house."
Tarika and Bolt looked at Kai who had a serious expression on his face.
"I am going to tell you what truly happened in the forbidden forest."
Tarika looked at Kai with sharp eyes,"I knew that you didn't told the whole thing clearly."
Kai had a bitter expression on hearing that,
"The truth is that I am the Supreme Lord of Forbidden Forest, Ruler of Magic Beast."
"Huh??"
Both Tarika and Bolt were surprised by the sudden revelation.
For sometime they remained silent and tried to digest the new information.
After a long period of silence, Tarika asked,
"Kai is it really true then who turned you into a magic user?"
"I really have a master and he is currently sleeping in this ring,"said Kai as he showed th his ring.
Bolt looked at Kai with confusion.
'My son really have hit his head, babbling nonsense. How can a person live inside a ring'
"My master is a ghost."
"Hahahahaha, that's not funny my son. Do you really believe ghost exist?"
Tarika looked at Bolt with sharp angry eyes as he coughed and calm down.
"So a ghost help you become a magic user?"
Kai nodded"It may be unbelievable mon but I am telling the truth. He has been living inside this ring for billions of years. He told me that our Continent is just a part of a larger world; the world were powerful magic users with power like God exists and needs my help to create him a new body."
Tarika looked at Kai with worry. She is a ordinary person and cannot understand much about the world of magic user and magic. She can now fully understand why Kai didn't revealed his identity as soon as he came back.
In these eleven years, he had experience things beyond the imagination of ordinary people like her. Living and fight with magic beasts who can talk and understand human language and become thier ruler.
It's beyond her understand, how Kai survived there for eleven years. Looking at her son and hearing him tell his story, she got a feeling that, she doesn't know anything about her son.
The person from the story seems like a unknown stranger to her.
Kai did hide information about his origin bloodline and it's side effects as well as myraid world ring.
Bolt was struggling to understand the kind of world, Kai had living in for last eleven years.
The fact that Kai cannot child due to his far superior bloodline was unreasonable think for Bolt.
Bolt suddenly wondered about his own bloodline. It was not like that they didn't wanted to have a second child after Kai but Tarika never got pregnant again.
'Do I also have a high rank bloodline compare to Tarika or Tarika bloodline is higher rank than me? I found her injured in near the outside range of forbidden forest with no memories of her past and slowly fall in love with her and married her. All these years she never had shown her willingness to regain those memories. Like she never wanted to regain those memories'thought Bolt with complicated expression.
After completing his story, Kai cancelled his magic and said goodnight to his parents,
as he returned back to his room to sleep.
Bolt and Tarika decided to think about it later and returned back to thier room to sleep.
