The ruler of the Middle Continent

Chapters 4.

The moon shone brightly, the cold of the night wind pierced the soul.

That night, after feeling his condition stable Chen began to sit cross-legged gathering natural energy into the energy container that was just below the navel.

"Energies here are abundant" Guman Chen.

Not long after, there were footsteps slowly approaching him.

Chen opened his eyes and saw that Limba was already sitting not far from where he was meditating.

While throwing 2 apples, Limba said: "Eat first, maybe tomorrow morning your condition has begun to walk even though slowly and gradually, your condition at that time is very severe, maybe tomorrow morning your condition has begun to be able to walk, lucky you have a strong physique and your body regeneration is above normal."

"Thank you Master, I was lucky to have been born in a clan that possessed unique abilities. We Nan clan are able to change the bone structure at will and make it a weapon. This ability is also supported by our physical endurance and skin thickness that is slightly above average, even our regeneration is very fast considering the expertise of our clan is indeed related to what is inside our bodies. It is this ability that makes us a perfect match for close combat." Obviously Chen.

"Unique.. Uniques.. Very Unique.. A clan from the human race that has Unique abilities." Reply Limba.

"Alright, a little introduction to me." Limba.

"You know what race I am from but a little introduce myself." Limba.

"My age is so old, son, it's probably been millions of years. And of course you know, when an animal race can develop and live to be thousands or even millions of years old then we will evolve. I come from the Ancient Dragon Holy Beast Race, we are one of the strongest races because it comes from the saint beast race. In short I belong to one of the Core Race among the other animal races and I am the ruler of this forest that you enter." Limba explained in detail.

Chen was surprised to hear Limba's explanation, as it turned out that Limba was the ruler of the Deathly Forest.

"I'm sorry Elder" Chen was about to apologize directly and bowed a little but was stopped by a limb through a wave of hands.

"It doesn't need to be much of a joke, this incident should teach you one important thing. Life is hard, we are wrought to learn to be strong to live it." Reply Limba.

"There is no such thing as kindness, all of it is just a guise to justify what they think is right. Killing under the pretext of eradicating evil, Betraying under the pretext of fighting for justice, even destroying in the name of Peace. You're still too naive and your heart is so weak, it can kill you anytime." Limba.

Chen was only able to bow his head and contemplate the long advice of Limba, he was well aware that if he was not naive and could dispel doubts and quickly make a decision maybe he would not end up miserable like this.

"I'm still too naive and weak." Mumbled Chen.

Chen turned to Limba and said: "Chairman, will you forge this weakling and make yourself a useful being."

Limba just looked straight ahead, long ago He thought then Limba said: "I and you are different, you know what I mean. Teaching you is like killing my own race."

"I swear in the Name of the True God, if I will use my merits to do anything, let me die of humiliation and my soul be destroyed until I can no longer be reincarnated." Chen replied firmly.

Limba immediately turned to Chen and looked at him sharply, as if he wanted to see the earnestness of the young man's words in front of him.

"Make a Vow You Will Strive to Unite the Human Race and the Animal Race and let me Mark your Soul, if you betray then I will destroy your Body and Soul." Limba Speak Sharp and Firm.

"I am Nan Chen, in the name of the TRUE LORD who created the World and Its Content, I Will Strive to Unite the Human Race and the Animal Race in order to Live Together. If I am unable, then it is not my destiny to be a Unifier BUT if I BETRAY my words then I AM READY TO DIE WITH INSULT AND MY SOUL IS DESTROYED WITHOUT REST."

Dhuangarr..... Dhuang.....

Lightning snatched as if answering Chen's vow and would always hold the oath he made.

"Good." Limba said, then Limba injured a bit of his finger and shot a drop of his blood into Chen's forehead. The blood permeated without any residue and disappeared without a trace.

"I absorb it and let it mix with your blood." Limba.

Without much asking Chen directly meditated obeying the Limba command.

A month's changing days passed.

Many people speculate the two may be dead considering that after the search in the forest there was a large battle and destroyed almost part of the forest.

But the Patriarch of the Nan clan still wished for a miracle, even though his heart doubted that they were both still alive.

\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=

Under the bottomless abyss of the death forest, Chen was training hard to become strong.

The day that He went through was just practicing physically and listening to the advice of the Limba, constantly forging physically and learning about life.

He is aware now, being strong is useless if in the heart there is a lump of greed then there is no good in his life.

Every piece of advice and Limba Speech seems to be a living standard for Chen now, a lot of advice that He hears and keeps in his memory. Although it all did not increase his strength at all but for Chen every piece of Limba Advice was much more important for the foundation of his life.

5 Years passed.

Now that Chen was no longer his old self, his eyes showed calmness and decisiveness, the aura that emanated as if showing himself was not a child yesterday afternoon who was still full of experience but himself like a human who had lived for a long time.

In the cave there is now a tomb that reads "From the Useless Disciple, please be forgiven and promise Will Always remember Master."

\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=

A short time..

Every meeting will always have a farewell.

Those who die seem to be away and lost.

Those who live as if approaching and waiting for their turn to arrive.

Chen sat on a large rock, his eyes closed in his breath as if bringing calmness.

Still vividly reflected in his memory, how his teacher sacrificed himself by moving the Whole Force onto him.

From the beginning He was lied to, the blood that He absorbed was not a Soul Sign but the Main Essence of the blood of the Limba.

The mixed blood slowly evolved to make Chen stronger and more receptive to the power of the Limba.

All was planned by Limba, even when he received all the power of Limba it happened too easily.

5 Years of physical training only in a hard way, all for the sake of forging his body to be ready to accept all the power of Limba.

What his Master had planned from the beginning to the end of his life was truly a valuable lesson for Chen.

How to love, what family relationships are, how precious life is, and so important is sincerity, and what a bond means.

Chen realized, his teacher was really setting himself up to become a leader who was truly a leader.

Leaders who will not be feared but will be displeased and accepted sincerely by their people.

"Thank you Master, this useless student promises to try to unite the human race and the animal race with what the teacher has given and taught." Chen muttered, unaware his tears were dripping.
