The Seven Monster Spirit

Chapter 08 - Path Each

3 Years have passed. Now Neron is 10 years old, many events that he has experienced in this village. Since he came to this village many fun things have happened, although his memory has not returned but since coming here the boy has restarted his forgotten life.

Today Neron sits in his room next to the window and gazes out, a beautiful view that meets the view with a peaceful and calm state of being common in this village, although it had become a common thing in this village but Neron's heart felt that something was different because both of his friends had left him because that was why in his heart he felt lost.

2 days ago Gerald came to pick up Ceithrine as if his mission was over. Ceithrine was thrilled to be reunited with her father. He has been living in this village for 3 years because his father left him, although at first Ceithrine was sad but because there were Neron and Hazel who helped her the girl was getting used to life in this village and also she managed to get friends who were the same age as her.

At the time Gerald picked her up in his heart Ceithrine was happy but on the other hand he also felt sad because he had to part with his friends.

Ceithrine was also very grateful to Neron that he had accompanied him when Ceithrine was here, according to him Neron was a good friend and also Ceithrine could also consider him as a teacher who had taught him many things. At that very moment they parted but they had a promise to meet again.so before keeping that promise Neron had to live his life as usual, Even though both of his friends were gone.

Ceithrine left 2 days ago and Hiro, the boy left yesterday. Because Hiro's departure was planned so many villagers who drove him were no exception Neron. The other children also take him along they may feel sad over Hiro's departure as they won't be able to play together again but judging by Hiro's smiling face and saying "I will definitely return to this village again, so look forward to my great magic and also I will definitely become the most formidable Adventure in history". Hiro does not go alone he goes with his mother, because his father is dead so Hiro's mother takes full responsibility for him. The two of them took a horse-drawn carriage carrying passengers who were going to the capital, not many passengers were in the carriage but because the place was narrow so they had to jostle. Children who will enter the Academy are usually 12 years old they will study there for approximately 6 years, the students there will learn many things. Since Hiro was only 10 years old so he still could not enter the Academy, the reason he left early was so that he could get used to life in the Capital because the atmosphere in the village and in the Capital was so much different that it was why he left early.

The departure of the two of them made Neron feel something he had never felt before, it made him feel helpless but all Neron now had to do was do the usual thing and keep moving forward.

Neron continued his practice of Aura and mana, now his abilities are growing and Hazel gave him a real sword that Neron could use and also Hazel also taught him other knowledge such as archery and spear techniques. His sword science is getting great but instead his training on Mana has not developed at all.

"Are you still unable to control Mana?" asked Hazel curiously

"Not yet, I've trained so hard but I haven't been able to sense the Mana that's on me"

"Maybe it's because of your practice or" Hazel thought for a moment and hesitated to say "You can't use magic" Hazel said seriously.

After she realized one thing Hazel asked once again "what do you mean that you can't feel the Mana that's on you? can you feel it in someone else?"

"Yes, but to myself I can't" replied Neron

"hmm that's weird, if you can't use where you shouldn't feel it at all but you feel what's in other people but not in yourself"

"Yes, I very clearly feel it's like measuring someone else's ability"

"So who do you think is so powerful?" hazel asked enthusiastically.

"if I were to measure it from Where of course Uncle Gerald and Hiro" Neron said confidently

"got with me ?"

"For Hazel it seems after them"

"Number 3 is not bad" Hazel stroked her chin "Ya Gerald is strong but I was more surprised that Hiro turned out to have talent huh"

Hazel remembers that Neron is now 10 years old.

"Neron you're 10 now, do you keep playing with the other kids?"

"Yes, why?"

"After the age of 10, children in this village will usually learn the work their parents do so that they can continue it or learn it as an aid to their future. So maybe now your chance to play is less and less"

"Hmm. I see" Neron felt a bit sad because his chance to play with his friends was reduced.

"So now maybe I can take you to the forest to hunt"

But after hearing Hazel's words, he got excited again.

Now Neron, Gobu, Ryan, Lyra and Syla are lying under a big tree where they used to play. The five of them did not have the spirit to play because Hiro and Ceithrine had already left this village so all they did was lie down and look at the clouds.

"Haaa this is so boring. Since they left we have lacked people to play" Gobu said in an annoyed tone

"but it's not like we've all gathered together" Ryan said

"But still, ever since they left I've been so uninspired" Gobu said as if explaining to Ryan.

"Yes me too" said Lyra

"I did too" said Shla agreeing with Gobu's statement

"Well, maybe now we'll meet less often, because we'll learn about the work that our parents do so our playtime will be less" Neron said. Hearing that Gobu remembered something.

"So about the job yes" Gobu said that and thought what he would do in the future

"You're gonna do it too, Neron?" ask Lyra

"Yes, since Hazel works as a hunter I will go with her to hunt in the forest" replied Neron

"Our father and mother became traders so we would learn about trading from our parents, Shla was right" Lyra told Neron

"It's true that we will go to the Capital to sell our gardening products and also the cuisine of his father Ryan" she said

"How long have you guys been gone ?" ask Gobu

"we only go once every 2 days and come back to pick up the merchandise" Lyra replied

"It's nice of you to be able to do work while walking around" Ryan said rather fearfully "I have to petrify my father in cooking but I always mess it up"

"I did, too, the first time I tried it my arm hurt from having to lift heavy iron and almost make trouble, luckily my father was able to stop it" Gobu said

"So you've tried that?" ask Shla

"Yes, it's because my father told me to but it's my fault I stopped and went to play"

"Fight all of you, because it might help us realize our dreams" Neron said encouraging his friends.

"Talking about dreams, what are your dreams?" Ask Ryan

They were all shocked and then laughed together seeing that Ryan became confused. They have never told each other their dreams. Neron only tells Ceithrine and Hiro about his dreams so his other friends don't know.

Gobu first spoke

"I want to create a powerful weapon that will be used by the Gold Imperial Knight Leader who can destroy a mountain with a single strike" It was a great and almost absurd dream because the power of a weapon lay in the person wearing it. Although Lyra tries to deny it but Gobu is optimistic about her Dream.

The dreams of Lyra and Syla are almost similar, each of them wants to set up a shop. The brother wanted to make a Bread shop and the sister wanted to make a Pharmacy. Even though they were always together the two of them always competed with each other.

From the Dreams that Neron's friends spoke of the most shocking was Ryan's dream, He wanted to become a fire mage and would join the Imperial Knight's army. Although a bit off the line from the work he did was like a dream. But Neron feels that Ryan can do it because he can feel the magic energy in Ryan's body.

And for Neron's Dream his friends believe that Neron is able to make it happen.
