Chapter 5 – First Journey Begins!

Hello there, sorry for the late chapter release, i was busy studying.

Heres Chapter 5!

Damon saw how his parents were looking at him, his mother was crying and his father was looking at him with a feeble look, he was cursing himself for not being able to defend his family, their mansion was burning and horrible screams of could be heard from inside, than Desil took him and escaped, while escaping he saw his parents standing there, around them was dozens of masked figures, in a moment he saw how his parent were stabbed, it was for only a moment but he saw it, “NOOOOOOO” he screamed and suddenly opened eyes, looked around and saw Headmaster who was sitting in front of him.

“did you saw a nightmare?” asked Headmaster with worried look, “no, just memories of the past” said Damon while looking at the window, his eyes showed slight sings of tears, Headmaster knew what Damon mean when saying Memories of the past, Desil told him about his past, he looked at the boy and thinked for himself “at such an young age to see the whole family being massacred” Headmaster sighed and looked at the young boy.

“what happened to him?” he was asking about mike, not like he was worried about him or something, it was just interest, “Mike’s every part of the face is broken, he fainted from the shock and still haven’t woken up, he was healed with healing magic, so he will not die”.

Damon sighed, it was good that he wasn’t dead, because if he died his family will seek revenge, for now Damon was not strong enough to have enemies, “his family ….” He said this two words and stopped, “his from noble family that have some influence in the city, but you don’t have to worry I will take care of everything, I understand how you feel but for now you are still weak and have huge potential, until you became stronger try to refrain yourself.”

Damon felt warm in his heart, he understood that Headmaster was worrying about him, he nodded and smiled a bit, “for now go back to your dorm and have a good rest” Headmaster said it with a smile and tapped Damon’s shoulder.

Damon returned to 303 dorm, Lark and Troy were back and waiting for him, he opened door and saw 2 boys sitting together with worried faces, “Damon how are you, are you injured anywhere? Did Headmaster punish you? What happened?” Troy and Lark asked with curiosity, Damon smiled and sat down, he told them everything about his past, he knew that Troy and Lark were his best friends so it was okay for them to know, when they heard whole story, Troy and Lark were heartbroken and feel sorry for Damon.

“Anyway you have us, we three will forever be bros and you can count on us” said Lark with a huge smile on his face, Troy nodded, on Damons eyes there were traces of tears, he then smiled and hugged them, with a smile they too hugged him tightly and then they chatted all the day.

When Mike’s father find out about his son, he rushed in Felix Institute, with rage he wanted to know who did it and slice him in thousand parts, but Headmaster told him that it was his sons fault, and when talking he felt pressure coming from Headmaster, from that he realized that his family must not seek revenge or they will be making Felix Institute their enemy, so this incident ended like this.

1 month passed and Damon was already 3rd rank warrior and 2nd rank mage, everyone were astonished about his growth, this days were peaceful, no one made trouble for him, so he could concentrate on training, he made big breakthroughs in fire and wind elements, as for lighting he didn’t knew anything about it so for now he was only concentrated on fire and wind.

Damon was reading many books past month and gained some knowledge, he read many books about magical beasts and wanted to go to magical beast range for training, he needed to experience real danger to became strong, when he told about this to Troy and Lark they were against it and wanted to persuade him, but soon they realized that he already made up his mind, so it was meaningless to persuade him.

If he wanted to leave Institute for training he needed to get permission from Headmaster, so he went to his office and knocked, “Come in” voice rang out from inside, Damon entered and saw Headmaster talking with some man, he had slim body and brown hair, on his face there was a scar near the left eye, he was wearing typical green long robe, when Damon came in headmaster said to man with a scar “Oscar, we will continue out conversation later, you can go now” man named Oscar nodded bowed slightly and said “yes milord” he then left the room.

“what is it Damon, do you need something?” said headmaster and smiled, “Headmaster I want to go to the Magical Beast Range for training,” when headmaster heard this his smile changed and frown appeared on his face, “Damon Magical Beast Range is dangerous place, I cant let you go there, you might die there,” said headmaster, worrying could be felt in his speech, Damon understood this, “headmaster I know that you are worrying about me, but if I didn’t explore danger and fight if with my own strength I won’t be able to became stronger, I know that it is dangerous place, I will be careful and will not make rushed decisions, when Desil left he too told me that for me to became stronger I need to experience real danger and overstep it.”

when headmaster heard this he didn’t knew what to say, it was true that for one to became stronger he needs to meet danger and be able to fight it with his own strength, but Damon was still 9 years old kid, Magical Beast Range was dangerous palce where even adults feared to enter.

When he looked in Damons eyes he understood that this boy already made up his mind and there was nothing that can stop him, he saw unwavering determination in his eyes.

Headmaster let out a sigh, “I know that you are worrying about me and I am grateful for it” Damon looked at man who was sitting on chair and with a hand on his head thinking what to do, headmaster then stood up smiled and said “I understand, but you must remember one thing Magical Beast Range is very dangerous place, not only beasts there are humans that rob and kill each other too, I can’t stop you but remember that you must always be on guard and be wary of everything.”

Damon nodded and said “thank you Headmaster, I will be careful and remember your warning” he then turned around and left the room.

Headmaster was looking at Damon from window, then he let out a sigh and left room.

Damon told everything to Troy and Lark, they were unhappy about the fact that their bro was leaving and he was going in a dangerous place, but they could do nothing about it, still guys smiled and said, “Damon you must be careful there, stay away from danger and come back shortly” they hugged him tightly.

Damon said goodbye to friends and took his bag, there were some food and dress, he then left Institute and started traveling to his destination, From Felix Institute to Magical Beas Range there was 5 thousand kilometers, Beldal City too was 5 thousand kilometers away from Falric City but it was on another direction

Like this 9 year old boy, around 1.3 cm tall, with black hair and deep black eys, wearing black long robe with symbols all over and red scarf around his neck, started his first journey.
