2021-11-20 09:11:37Red closed his eyes to calm down. He relaxed his body. All the thoughts in his mind disappeared one by one. The beating of his heart slowed down as he felt a unique feeling that he only felt for the first time, tranquility.
The tear in his soul that is just recently mended still has marks, but at this moment a mark in the soul that is hard to remove is starting to disappear at a rapid pace.
As it disappears, Red can once hear a tearing sound from his soul, and the tearing this time is twice more intense than the previous.
At the moment in the foggy place, Red's glabella suddenly shines a piercing crimson light and starts 'absorbing' Red's reflection in front of him. Little by little the reflection is becoming fainter as time passes by and after a while, it completely disappeared but the crimson light did not disappear it shines even more.
"Congratulations to your awakening RED," the reflection mumbled before it fades into nothingness.
If Red were to open his eyes at the moment, one can see the crimson light within. From the glabella to the eyes, the crimson light penetrates Red's Soul and spreads into the tears that have just been opened. Seemingly infected, Red's soul also turned crimson, the crimson light then fades and disappears, slowly Red's soul seemed to digest and absorb the crimson light and return to normal. The tears have been mended as if they never existed before.
Red snapped his eyes open, He can see a spring with glowing water and an oversized white 'bird'.
Yes, a 'bird', of course from the perspective of Red, for this bird is none other than the Jade White Eagle King.
*whoooooosh*
A chilling wind blew and Red felt goosebumps, at this moment he was sure that he was back in reality.
The 'bird' felt the gaze of Red. It looked back at him affectionately. Strangely enough, Red can feel the affection of the 'bird'.
He looked around and realized that there is no one except the both of them. He wondered, why does he always ends up in a place foreign to him. The first one, in a foggy place. Then, here again.
He moved closer to the 'bird' and attempted to touch it. Surprisingly before his hand could touch the 'bird', it already moved its head towards Red's hand.
Red talks to the bird as he felt a closeness with it, "What is your name birdie?"
"Do you want me to give you a name?"
Surprisingly enough, the bird made a *gou gou* sound and nodded its head.
The Jade White Eagle King is not a king for no reason, it's intelligent. Not only did it save Red, but it has also seen something in him that caught its interest.
"Hmmm, though you are big I will call you 'Little White' "
As Little White heard his name and Red's remark, he suddenly glowed and shrank into the size of a regular eagle.
Red was stunned and speechless.
It seems that Little White can change size at will.
Red petted Little White's head.
*growl*
Little White looked at Red as he heard his stomach complain in hunger.
Little White returned to his original size. He looked at Red with longing eyes as he seemed to be asking Red to ride on his back.
Red understood what Little White meant and rode excitedly. Although he knows that it'll be hard for Little White, he thinks that there'll be no problem as they are not going up but they are going down.
Little White opened his majestic and flapped them elegantly as they swooped down.
Reds were amazed, the mountain peak they were in is indeed very high, it is a good hiding place and can be a good home, of course, it is a good home for those that have wings like Little White's.
They fly at a high speed but Red knows that in consideration to himself Little White reduced his speed by a great margin. In truth, the speed of Little White was not even one-third the speed of his top speed.
As Little White is an intelligent beast, it knows that Red cannot withstand his high speed as he cannot sense mana in Red's body as Red has not yet learned magic.
Of course, those that have learned magic have stronger bodies than those who haven't. Because in order to use magic you need to be able to store mana in your body. But storing mana is not an easy task because mana tends to destroy the body and corrupt the soul.
Although it is risky to learn magic, it is also worth it as it will let you ascend from the level of mortals.
An hour has passed since they started to descend and Red has been pondering to himself about the foggy place. How did he end up there and what is the reflection that he met?
Then he realized that there are fragments of knowledge and talent that he knew but he didn't before he fell unconscious.
He discovered that he can tell time. He can tell how long it has been, or rather, he can calculate time. He knows how long till sunset and how long it has been since sunrise. Though minor, what miraculous about it is that he can do it instinctively. Just like how you can hear all kinds of sounds even if you don't want to, the only difference is that it is in terms of time.
Though Red has not realized it yet, this is very important during battles. Imagine being able to calculate the time of your every action and the action of the enemy, if you are good it might even be close to foresight. as you can calculate when the attack will land and when will your opponent complete its preparation. It can be also considered as a weaker version. if foresight.
At the moment of realization, Red was wondering if this talent was from the foggy place or if it really was innate to him. Though he did not want to admit it, he also cannot deny the possibility.
He was thinking, "if this is all I got from the foggy place then the foggy place is not as great as I thought."
If his reflection was heard this he might have coughed blood in anger and disappointment.
From the calculation of Red, it has been four hours since they Started flying down. Little did he know that if Little White is flying in a straight line as they go down, they might have already landed. Little White is actually looking for a suitable city for Red to learn magic according to his memory and instinct.

Inside the forest, there was a lake that perfectly reflected the scenic view around it, the risen sun, the steep mountains, the tall trees, and the blue sky. There is only one word to describe this view, 'amazing'. This is the best place Red has ever gone yet, aside from the habitat of Little White, of course. On the shore of the lake, a young man with scarlet hair is roasting the meat of a wild boar and a white 'bird' is perching on his shoulder. The delicious fragrance of roasted meat can be smelled in the air and the beasts nearby that smelled the fragrance can't help themselves but to droll. But they dare not steal the roasted meat of the young man as their instinct told them of danger, even if they just show a bit of their greed towards the meat they will die in less than two seconds.

"This cabin was built for you, to be specific a waiting place for you," the old man added. "Eh?" Red was stunned and don't know what to say. He was flabbergasted and confused, how did they know that he will be here? Is this all a scheme? Was the death of his dear friend, Ienze, part of this scheme? His eyes turned crimson as he remembers the death of his friend, the anger and hatred that was hidden deep in his heart once again resurface and took control of him. But this time he did not hear the tearing sound from his soul, his heart beats fast as if it was racing instead. The blood in his veins felt alive. Every drop seemed to have a life of its o

"How can I become a magus?" Red asked. He was eager because part of him is telling him that he should become powerful. Or else, he would not know how he would die, and, aside from that, he would not be able to get revenge for his dear friend. "Not so fast young man. Let us first know each other" Red turned red from embarrassment. He was a little rash to ask, they did not even know each other's name yet. "I am Red, and this is Little White," Red introduced himself and Little White to the old man. The old man gave Red an odd look. How can Little White be little, his size is definitely not little. He is comparable to an oversized bird. With a wingspa

Right at the moment, Red finished testing the link between him and Little White, Kane came and asked him, "Do you want to become a magus?" Red excitedly answered, "Yes." "I forgot to tell you, there is a level beneath the nine cultivation stages. It is called the novice stage." "In the novice stage, you will be called novice magus, and a novice magus does not have a mana core. But, they still can cast spells, but it is so weak that sometimes it even fails." "But that does not matter, a novice is not called a novice for no reason. It is the preparation to become a magus. A novice's job is to familiarize mana, how it works and how can it be used or how to use it to trigger the elements." <

"Congratulations on meditating successfully for the first time," Kane congratulated Red as he opened his eyes after meditation. "You must be eager to cast spells now and by the look of it, you are suitable to become a magus." "But, before giving you spell models to study, check your spiritual space first." "Clear your mind of all thoughts and let consciousness flow to your spiritual space." "This is not meditation. So, at all cost, try not to sense the mana and the elements in the surroundings because they will bring you to your meditation world," Kane warned Red sternly as he emphasized the word 'do not.'

It took Red a week until he fully mastered the spells that he wanted. Unlike other novice maguses, every time he casts a spell, it is guaranteed that it will not fail unless someone somehow manages to disrupt his rune or someone manages to tamper it. At this time, Red finally made up his mind that he will travel to the kingdom of Middle Earth. He was confident that he could somehow protect himself without exposing Little White. He wanted to treat Little White as his trump card. But traveling is not easy. The distance alone is not something that can be trifled with, thus, he plans to slowly explore the outskirts of the kingdom's territory. And, if he was fated, he would be able to enter, and if not then that does not matter. He took the dagger from the cabin to protect

After the fight, Red discovered that his Spiritual Space has grown in an insignificant amount. He can also tell that the water in his Spiritual Space is a bit clearer than before. At the same time, every time he enters his Meditation World he can see the orange light clearer, which indicates that his understanding of the fire element has gone deeper. Red resumed his on his route towards the city. And, after a day of walking, he could already see the city from afar. Along the way, his sack bag has become bulkier. Aside from the spoils from the Three-eyed Grey Bear and the Dark Wolf. There are also spoils from his fight with the other beasts but these beasts barely reach rank one and were barely enough for him to sweat.

After selling his spoils, Red decided to take a look at the mission board and choose one, if there are suitable missions for him. He prefers escort missions because aside from getting to a new city, he can also get paid, killing two birds with one stone. The Mission Board has nothing in it except the papers that contain the mission. There is nothing eye-catching, it looked plain that of a normal board. Red scanned the papers with his eyes, some missions requested to hunt a beast. There is also a request to find a certain herb, to kill someone, to guard a residence for a short period of time, and of course, there are also escort missions. He scanned the escort missions and he discovered that the name of this

Thus, he might as well return it to where it would be useful.Tink!Indeed, with the addition of another World Pillar, the Threads of Fate had its power become a bit stronger.“So, that’s how it is.

Red flashed, but he underestimated the beam. He was hit by the shockwave and gained some injuries that were healed in a matter of seconds. However, before Red could get a breather, another beam was launched towards him. “This Bastard.” This time, he had learned his lesson. He flashed at the same time that the beam was launched. This simple action is not simple at all. It is hard to predict when will the beam be launched. If he flashed ahead of time, the eye will definitely hit him. At the same time, it was also the same if he is a bit late. Fortunately, Red had foresight. Pfft! Then again, there is another one. And again, Red dodged. This went on for a while. T

Both sides suffered many deaths. At the same time, although Red’s forces won, they are not in a good mood. They are grieving for their dead companions and family members. “Everyone, the war has always been cruel. However, I would like to express my sincerest apology. If not for me, none of them should have died in this manner.” At this time, Red is not merely talking. This is indeed what he felt.

Or perhaps, it even surpassed the ranks of a Divine Weapon. Of course, whether it really surpassed the ranks of a Divine Weapon or not, Red would not know. At this moment, the Token of Fate in his spiritual space vibrated as it wanted to leave. “Eh?” Seeing that, Red took it out. Then, in the next second, the vibration becomes a lot more intense. After which, an illusory figure of a middle-aged man appeared. The man is not someone familiar to him.

If Red cannot survive his attack, he cannot learn the spell and would die instead.However, to his surprise, Red appeared at his back and commended him.“Woah, that’s a lot of spells.”Red’s eyes were gleaming.“Old man, how generous of you.”Cough!As the old man heard that, he coughed out blood.

However, in consideration that you are against me, you will die. I will burn your branches to ashes.”Despite the taunting of the Shade Binder, the Tree of Knowledge is not a Tree of Knowledge for nothing. Just like an old man that was full of knowledge, the three of knowledge are calm and patient at all times.“Blood Forest!”It counter-attacked the spell of the old man.In an instant, the surrounding of the Tree of Knowledge turned into a forest of blood.

At this moment, Red’s talent in forging was displayed by the extraordinary abilities of the weapons that he had forged.With the weapons, on their hand, it was rather easy for them to brave their ordeal.Meanwhile, the Galleon of Destiny also kept attacking some of the weavers making them into the passive side. At the same time, those that were targeted by the Galleon of Destiny will either be injured or dead.At this time, Luna had decided to join the fray. Thus, she sat cross-legged and took out the weapon that Red forged for her. It was like an orb. Then, on a closer look, one could notice that it has patterns akin to the moon.Unlike the weapons of the five, hers did not need physical contact. All it needed is to control it from her visions.With a thought, the moon orb flew out of the Galleon of Destiny and into the sky.As it rose higher, it also grew bigger.

Red’s breakthrough is a thing that the Threads of Fate will not allow.Why? The two binders also did not know. And, there is nothing they can do about it.Well, they are hoping that the Time Binder will let them know; however, they cannot support Red because they are under the control of the Threads of Fate. Furthermore, they also want to break free from the Threads of Fate but the key to their shackles is in the Galleon of Destiny which was owned by Red, the heir of the Time Binder.Indeed, their situation is very complicated.
