《Last Ki Master: The New World [RB]》
Prologue: New Beginnings
Hello! This is the reboot of the story The Last Ki Master: The New world.
I''ve been given permission from the author who wrote this story. He has quit writing, which made me very sad because I really liked this story.
[http://www.royalroadl.com/fiction/1603] <- Link to original
He has given me all his excel work of the world, plot, skills, and characters for this story and another. I won''t follow his other story exactly, but I will be using a lot of the work he had already laid out!
Thank you! Since I''m on summer break I will be able to write a lot of chapters! Hopefully we''ll be at chapter 12 by the end of next week! :D
Enjoy!
Looking for Proofreader!
--
In a steel room shut off from the outside world sat a man who wore a long silk white robe with shoulder length black hair. He sat in the darkness as still as a statue. The air around him vibrated as Ki was swirling around him as he was trying to suck the Ki into his body to refine it into his Ki center using the forbidden technique [God¡¯s Meditation].
[God¡¯s Meditation] was a forbidden technique as it is extremely dangerous to use. If your body can¡¯t handle the influx of Ki, then the Ki Center will explode causing the practitioner to die a gruesome death.
This technique was found in the tomb of one of the greatest master in the history by a group of scholars. The scholars gave access of the technique to everyone to master without the government monopolizing it for themselves.
It was a noble idea at first, but once the technique spread all over world, it just caused chaos and death to many of the citizens and practitioner. They attempted to use it to with the fantasy of joining the ranks of the very few masters that stood at the top of the world. In the end all that waited for them was a gruesome death.
After all the deaths caused by the technique, the scholars were put in prison for mass murder. They were tortured and had their families killed in front of them. The truth was that the death of the citizens didn''t matter to the government; they just wanted the technique for themselves.
The government banned the technique and began doing experiments with the technique using all gender, age, and race. They wanted to find out the secret so they could make the ultimate warrior and conquer the world.
Only 4 people have been successful in mastering [God¡¯s Meditation]. 1 person died in the severe training. The next mentally broke down. The third was killed in battle during the war. The final one led the government¡¯s army with his overwhelming strength to conquer that world.
That person was Khan La, he was kidnapped as a baby in the hospital when they secretly scanned the entire newborn babies Ki center and found that khan¡¯s Ki center was abnormally large.
From age 1 - 4 the babies are given simple education and are being experimented with. If they are deemed even the slightest of being stupid they are killed in front of the other child as examples.
At the age 4 - 6 he was forced among thousands of other babies to learn the technique in a dark underground room. If you didn¡¯t learn it before the age 7, they would deem you as ¡°unfit¡± and kill you on the spot in front of the other kids.
By Age 7 only Khan and another boy had survive from the thousands of babies that were kidnapped.
From Age 7 ¨C 14 they are forced to do the same regime everyday of Warfare education, Ki Training, physical combat.
Age 15 Khan and the other boy met two other survivors. They were introduced to their new teacher Yaza age 72. Their teacher was a Rank S master level criminal who was recruited by the government to train the kids in his Ki style martial art.
He was ruthless and a manic, but he was a great teacher who knew the best way to killing people with the least amount of Ki. He didn¡¯t become a Rank S from sleeping with the president wife you know. He murdered masses of people while evading other masters and experts for the longest of time.
When the severe training began Yaza, he taught them his savage lightning style martial art that he made and mastered himself. He knew every fundamental because he was the creator and beat it into the 4 survivors.
Age 17 after mastering the basic they were taught an intermediate level skill called Lightning Pulse. It¡¯s a skill where you charge Lightning Ki into your fist and smash the fists together causing the Lightning go expel in a huge dome around you hitting everything within range.
The survivor who was from Khan¡¯s generation attempted the skill, but instead of expelling it outwards, it went inwards instantly killing the boy. The other survivor who was already mentally exhausted from the severe training broke down from the sight of their fellow survivor death and never recovered.
Age 19 Khan reaches expert level, the youngest in the history. The second person would be the other survivor at the age of 26 a few months after Khan. Third would be one of the great Ki master Razita who ever, who also invented the skill [God¡¯s meditation] at the age of 38.
Age 20 Following behind Yaza and fellow survivor Juki, Khan goes off to join the war front.
Age 30 the war rages on with no end in sight. Khan and Juki are promoted to Captain Rank while Yaza is promoted to Major of their battalions.
Age 33 Khan finally reaches master level being the youngest person ever to reach master level. Second would be Razita at age of 60. Third would be at the age of 64.
Khan felt his Ki quadruple and suddenly the battlefield becomes his playground.
Age 35 Khan Achievement on the battlefield piles faster than ever since becoming a master and is promoted to major.
Age 37 countries after countries fall after the might Khan who¡¯s unstoppable and he¡¯s promoted to Colonel, one rank away from general.
Age 38 Khan caught Juki and the members of his battalions trying to rape the princess of the country Gayle during a raid. He kills them all on the spot and then reported that Juki was killed in combat.
Age 39 Khan promoted to general for his accomplishment while his teacher Yaza becomes his second in command. He¡¯s placed head of the government army to prepare for the final battle again the combine forces of Halze, Yamal, and Poratory.
Age 40 Khan leads the government army into a final battle against the countries Halze, Yamal, and Poratory destroying the combine forces. The war finally ends and all the countries have been conquered with the government as the sole ruler of the planet.
Khan returns back to the capital for the first time in long time. He¡¯s revere as a hero by the citizen and is given the Heroes Medal one of the highest honor you can get.
His mentor Yaza decides that he has nothing left to teach Khan. Khan is happy to finally be rid of his master Yaza and decides to retire as commander, which allows Yaza to be promoted to general.
At the age of 41 Khan doesn¡¯t know what he wants to do as he spent his entire life doing nothing, but training and fighting.
Age 43 Khan had traveled the world. He saw the oppression of the government increase over the year and the people suffering. His mentor Yaza successfully over throws the government and become King of the lands.
Khan returns home from the call of Yaza. He is forced to marry ex-princess of the country and is placed under house arrest under the orders of Yaza.
He accepts his fate and goes under house arrest as Yaza threaten to kill the innocent people around him and that he¡¯s also surrounded by the remaining masters and experts.
Age 44 Even though Khan under house arrest he¡¯s never been happier in his life. Yaza gives him everything he wants, but what¡¯s more is that he felt a feeling that he never felt before.
That was love. He fell in love with the ex-princess who was 34 years old. The princess is average when it comes to looks, but to Khan it didn¡¯t matter to him. He didn¡¯t care about material objects and outward appearances of others. He was raised for the sole purpose of warfare so the only thing that mattered was his body.
He loved her sincerity and honestly. It was hard at first for them, but they were able to warm up to each other as they had to spend all that time together.
Since then Khan has been training in this steel room trying to see if there was a final level above master. He¡¯s been sitting there for 3 days without food and water, but he couldn¡¯t just leave yet as he had the feeling he was about to break a wall that has been plaguing him for years.
He decided to stop training and go out and see his wife since he doesn¡¯t want to leave her by herself for too long.
Khan pushes open the door and saw his wife sleeping on the couch in front of the training door waiting for him.
He walks over to her and on his knees he touches her soft skin and blonde hair with his finger; putting on a gentle smile. Before he met his wife he would have never been able to put on a smile like that.
She wakes up from his touch and looks at him while still half asleep and gets up to wrap her arms around him and kisses him on the lips.
¡°You kept me waiting again.¡± she says with a sad expression.
¡°I¡¯m really sorry Rin, I lose track of time when I meditate.¡± Khan responds apologetically.
¡°I¡¯m just happy you¡¯re back! You must be hungry let me make you something to eat.¡± Rin responds with a big smile
¡°How about we start with we start with desert first!¡± Khan says passionately while looking straight into her deep blue eyes.
he picked Rin up in a princess carry.
¡°What you have to have a proper meal first before desert¡± Rin scolded him.
Khan thought to himself is she was actually serious about that comment or not and decides to whisper what he really meant.
¡°Oh¡ Haha¡¡± Rin just gave an awkward laugh and nods while blushing.
After a night of heated passion, Khan felt like he could conquer the world again if he needed to! He kisses Rin on the cheek while Rin was still asleep in bed and gets up to go to the kitchen.
Khan decided to cook breakfast for them both as he a much better cook than his wife by not even a mile, but more like a planet size distance. He learned mastered survival cooking for the battlefield and gourmet cooking style of the capital as his master Yaza was a very picky eater.
That was the only way they actually convinced the crazy old man to go to the war was with the best food that a man can get. The problem was that whenever an enemy raided the base there was a likely chance of the cook being killed so the only solution they had was to have Khan to learn how to cook.
Even when Khan was commander and Yaza was his second in commander he still had to cook food for Yaza. All the new recruits were confused at first on what was happening, but understood when they told them that Yaza was Khan¡¯s master.
After finishing up breakfast Khan decided to carry the food to bed to surprise Rin. He imagined her beautiful smile from the reaction of him bringing the food to her.
As Khan walks back to the room with food his hand. He heard the sound of the window being smash. quickly he drops the food and uses his skill [Lightning Flash].
He instantly appears in the bedroom and saw someone standing on top of Rin with his sword in her chest.
¡°NO!¡± Khan screamed at the top of his lungs.
Whoosh--
Khan used the skill [Lightning Flash] again flashing in front of the assassin and smashes his face into the wall, instantly killing him.
He pulls out the sword from Rin back and burns the wound with lightning Ki to stop the bleeding.
¡°Rin!¡± Khan screams her name while clutching her tightly.
She doesn¡¯t respond.
Khan checks her pulse, but gets nothing. He puts his head on her chest, but feels no beating. Khan gathers Lightning Ki into his hand tries to get her heart to pump again.
This content has been misappropriated from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.
First try her body doesn¡¯t respond and he gives her CPR and goes for a second try.
Second try He still gets no responds and gives her CPR.
Third time she reacts and gasps for air.
Rin started coughing out blood and looks at Khan weakly while tears was pouring down Rin¡¯s face.
¡°You know I¡¯ve never been so happy in my life. Before I got married to you, No one ever wanted me because I was an ugly princess compared to my sister and as I aged people just looked at me with more disgust. You loved me for who I was¡± Rin says softly.
¡°Rin wh----¡° Khan tries to respond, but gets cut off by Rin''s kiss.
¡°Say you love you one more time¡± Rin pleaded.
¡°I love you Rin, please don¡¯t leave me¡± He answered.
¡°I love you too, don¡¯t forgot me, my hero¡± Rin whispers one last time into his ears
Her bodies go limp. Khan checks for her pulse one more time, but nothing. He desperately ties to revive Rin by jump starting her heart with lightning Ki again.
First Time: No response.
Second Time: No Response.
Third Time: No Response.
Fourth Time: No Response.
¡°Ahh¡± Khan tries to say something, but nothing coming out. His whole body felt heavy with tears pouring down his face. He kisses her one last time and gets up to head to the castle.
Before Khan jumps out the bedroom window he looks behind him.
¡°I love you Rin, Rest Well.¡± Khan says with a sad expression, looking at the body Rin.
He jumps out the window into the town street. The streets looked like something out of a horror movie. There was corpse and blood everywhere on the streets and walls. It seemed like all the bodies were fresh and were killed instantly without a sound.
Khan activated [Lightning Step] to increase movement. Everywhere he went was the same thing as Khan headed to the castle. The area where he was under house arrest was the area for the rich and nobles, which meant it was generally less populated making it easier for stealth attacks.
As he got closer to the main gates of the castle he heard screams in the air and saw Yaza royal guards killing everyone that was in the area.
Whoosh¡ª
Khan appeared in front of the gates in middle of all of the guards using [Lightning Flash].
He charges Ki into his fist and smashes them together activating [Lightning Pulse] sending all the guards around him flying into nearby buildings or the castle wall breaking all their bones in their bodies from the impact.
He ran past the gate and a swarm of 120 guards come charging at home with 4 experts leading them.
Khan charges Ki into both his hands preparing for his next attack.
The experts saw the Ki building up in his hand and quickly sent their attack toward him hoping to stop him from activating his skill.
[Hell Bird Fireball] [Earth Slam] [Tiger Fist] [Hawk Wave] [Tiger Roar], all the attacks hit Khan, but because of Khan natural Ki defense it does a small amount of damage.
Khan doesn¡¯t even flinch at all and rises his Ki charged hand that has static lightning coming out and squeezes it as hard as he can activating the Master level skill [Lightning Storm].
Lightning comes down from the sky and electrocutes all the experts and guards out in the open. All the experts just fall to floor with a thud and the guards who were mostly intermediate and advance level would have certain limbs explode depending the level is their Ki.
There was blood everywhere from the explosion of the limbs. From the dismembered bodies blood was slowly gushing down the stairs as Khan ran up into the castle.
In Throne room there was a large formation on the floor. Yaza was in the middle of the formation with a [Lightning Barrier] surrounding the formation chanting something in an unknown language.
In front of the Barrier was 3 master level experts and dead bodies in front of them who looked to have opposed the ritual.
The three master charges at Khan in high speed. When they get close in range Khan activates Advance skill [Lightning Armor] and Master level skill [Savage Lightning Dance].
[Lightning Armor] surrounds Khan with lightning statics protecting his body. It reduces damage along with paralyzing whoever attacks the armor with a physical attack.
[Savage Lightning Dance] Surrounds the area with a lightning field and allows the caster to instantly flashing anywhere within the field as if he was lightning itself. The field will also slow anyone movement and attack speed trapped inside and stop anyone else from entering or exiting.
The masters begin to slow down from the effects of the Lightning flying freely within the field. Khan flashes behind the 1st expert while charging both his hands with Ki. In his hand is two [Lightning Spear] is formed.
He stabbed both the spears into the back of the first master and he drops to his knees coughing out blood.
The second Master lunges at Khan, instead of flashing away Khan takes a step forward and knee the master in the face before he can grab on to Khan, knocking him to the ground.
The third master releases the charged Ki from his hands Master Level skill [Ki Tomb]. Khan feels a pressure surrounding him so he attempts to flash away, but his leg is still within range of the [Ki Tomb].
The bones in Khan¡¯s left leg are all broken. He¡¯s still able to flash within the barrier field and does so by flashing behind the third master and hitting him in the back with a [Lightning Punch] breaking his spine causing him to be paralyzed from the waist down.
Khan charges two [Lightning Spear] as the man falls to his knee, then to the ground face forward. Khan jams the first spear into the back of his head ending his life.
The second spear Khan throws at the second master who¡¯s barely getting up from getting smashed in the face with Khan¡¯s knee. The spear rips through the neck of the man. He tries to cover the open wound to stop the flow of blood, but is unable to and bled quickly bled to death.
The first man still on his knee is unable to move from his wounds looks at Khan.
¡°Ple¡ase¡.Sp¡a..re¡..Me¡± He weakly begged Khan.
Khan looked at him coldly as he walked slowly toward the guy.
¡°ah¡.Ple¡.ase¡.I¡¯ll......Gi.-----¡° He begs one more time, but gets stops as Khan snaps his neck like a twig, leaving the man¡¯s body to fall to the ground lifeless.
Khan deactivated [Savage Lightning Dance] as he limped toward Yaza.
Yaza looks back at Khan with a smiles.
¡°As expected of my pupil; you killed those three masters singlehandedly!¡± Yaza said joyfully.
¡°I¡¯m going to fucking kill you for what you¡¯ve done to Rin¡± Screamed Khan at the top of his lungs as he limps toward Yaza.
¡°I¡¯m sorry my favorite pupil, I needed to the blood of the royal bloodline for this ritual. The reason I kept you in house arrest in the same house nearby because one of my formations is under your house connected to this one. That¡¯s why I forced her to marry you to keep her there and alive from assassinations!¡± Yaza said with a laugh.
Khan never felt this angry in his life. His Ki started leaking out with burst static Lightning was appearing around Khan¡¯s body.
Once Khan reached the [Lightning Barrier], he used [Lightning Punch], [Lightning Spear], and [Lightning Storm], but nothing affected the barrier.
The formation started glowing as Yaza began chanting faster!
Khan used his bare hands to try and face a gap open, but all he could do was open a small gap just for his head to fit through. The flesh on his hands started to burn from trying to force the Lightning too long.
Khan wouldn¡¯t give up and kept pulling, but yield no results.
He dropped to his knee feeling dejected and begin activating [God¡¯s Meditation] hoping for a little bit of energy to help kill Yaza.
Khan looked at Yaza as Ki increasely entered his body.
¡°Why Yaza?¡± Khan asked.
¡°Because I¡¯m fucking 102 years old, what do you expect? I¡¯m a dying old man! I sent out my armies to create formations all over the world under the pretense of a festival so I can sacrifice all these pieces of shit so I can gain eternal youth!¡± Screamed Yaza.
As Khan continued to gather Ki he felt the wall from the peak of master level beginning to crack.
¡°This is why I took the damn job to become a government pig and play babysitter with you guys. I couldn¡¯t kill enough people by myself, so I thought maybe if I had some government influence I can do it. It¡¯s all thanks to you, my favorite Pupil!¡± Yaza says while laughing hysterically.
The room begins to as the formation grows even brighter. Yaza begins to chant even faster.
Khan wall that been plaguing Khan finally broken down. The room begins to rumble and Khan feels an influx of Ki entering his body.
Yaza just looks at Khan in disbelief as he continued to chant.
Khan looks back at Yaza with a smile, he¡¯s finally reached grandmaster, a level in Ki mastery that no one in history achieved
Khan stood up to rip open the [Lightning Barrier] with ease. He limps toward Yaza and puts both his hands on Yaza head as he still continued to chant.
¡°You got anything to say before I send you to the afterlife old man!¡± Khan screams at Yaza.
¡°I do, I finished the chant haha! Now eternal youth will be mine!¡± Yaza replies in joy as a tornado begins to form around them.
Khan charges all his Ki into his hand and sends as much Lightning through Yaza Body. Yaza body violently shakes and his body blows up covering Khan in his master blood and guts.
He fell backward as the tornado surrounded him closing in on him.
Khan had just reached grandmaster level and killed his mentor who has wronged him.
He didn¡¯t feel any joy.
He just felt empty.
He wanted to just hold Rin in his arms.
Khan thought about the moments he had with her, their first meeting, First awkward kiss, first time making love, and of course the first time she smile at him.
It was the smile that melted his Ice heart and made him feel a new emotion that he never felt before.
If he could, He would trade all his power that he worked so hard for. Just so he can be with Rin for one more day; No even an hour would be enough.
He cried as he laid there with the tornado closing on him.
When Khan opened his eyes it was brighter than before, he felt the gentle breeze blowing, and a fresh smell of nature instead of his burnt flesh.
He got up and felt no pain in his body, but he couldn¡¯t feel the power he had attain from the battle. He looked at his body and notice his body was that of a child around the age of 5-7.
He was surrounded by trees and wild life that was similar yet different from the ones he knew.
Did the ritual sent him to a different area? Instead of eternal youth, did it send him back to being a child?
In the end he didn¡¯t really care at all about finding an answer. He lost everything he worked for and the one he loved.
He just laid there as hours went by.
When the cold night sweep over Khan, he coughed uncontrollable as his body shook. He was young again so his body isn¡¯t as strong anymore, but he didn¡¯t care. He just laid there staring into the beautiful sky that was filled with bright stars and two moons until his mind faded into the darkness from the exhaustion.

Chapter 1: The young girl
Just as a reminder that this reboot will not follow the original story, but will hold some of the same elements. The reason is that I have no idea what he''s lacking in the last chapter, haha. I wish he told me.
Thank you!
Enjoy!
Looking for Proofreader!
When Khan looked around he was surrounded by endless darkness. He had no control over his body beside the movement of his head and arms.
¡®Is this a dream?¡¯ Khan asked himself.
Khan was suddenly blinded by bright white light. In front of him stood Rin with her beautiful blonde hair and deep blue eyes. Khan reached his hands out to her, but was a few inches short of reaching her. He wanted to scream out her name, but couldn¡¯t do so.
Khan watched as tears poured down her face with a sad expression as she turned the other direction to slowly walk away. He wanted to run after her to grab Rin from behind, but no matter how hard he tried he just couldn¡¯t move his legs. All he could do was watch Rin as she disappeared into the darkness.
¡°Rin!¡± Khan screamed as he woke up from the nightmare.
He was heavily panting as he felt cold from the sweat that drenched his body, but behind his head and around his chest he felt the warmth of another person embracing him.
In front of him, Khan saw a pair of plain brown eyes of a young girl with short black hair tied up in a ponytail staring down at him. She looked to be around the age 10 ¨C 12.
¡°Good Morning.¡± The young girl said tonelessly.
¡°Good morning.¡± Khan replied back awkwardly.
He wasn¡¯t sure what was going on, but honestly he just wanted her to leave he can hopefully die from starvation, the cold, or a wild animal so he wouldn¡¯t have to suffer anymore. Khan didn¡¯t want to start a new life without Rin, he rather just die to go hell for his punishment for the crimes he had crimes he had committed in the war. Maybe one day their souls will meet once more after he received his punishment. Of course that¡¯s just his wishful thinking.
Khan watched the girl quietly stare at him. He couldn¡¯t deny he was a bit curious on where this girl came from, why is she giving him a lap pillow, and how long she has been here. Khan decided it was best to not talk to the girl. Hopefully that would get her to leave him alone in peace.
After a few minutes of staring at each other without a word, Khan closed his eyes.
¡®She might leave faster if I pretend to sleep¡¯ Khan thought to himself.
He could¡¯ve just asked her to leave, but Khan hesitated. Khan felt happy because this was the first time anyone ever comfort him when he was depressed or injured. He knew that this girl didn¡¯t know he was depressed, but it doesn¡¯t matter right now because all that matter was the warmth he felt from her body.
The reason for his joy is because during his training for the government and deployment in the war, no one ever cried or felt extreme joy for Khan after surviving a life threatening injury.
They would just either yell at Khan for getting injured in the first place or just shrug it off as if it was a normal thing and send him back to training or the battlefield after he barely recovered. Yaza was the worst offender out of all of them.
A prime example would be when Khan and Juki was requested by another high ranking officer to help escort him to meet double agents they had placed in the enemy army.
The truth was that, the high ranking officer was actually a sleeper agent for the enemy army who was activated during the start of the war.
Khan and Juki were deemed as future high potential dangers. So the Officer used this chance to ambush them using the escort mission as a cover to get rid of Khan, Juki, and the double agents.
Then he would return to enemy country with all the government information after the ambush as he was under the suspicion of espionage.
The mission was a failure for the enemy because Yaza was sent to secretly follow behind and was able to stop the enemy from successfully killing Khan and Juki.
Juki came out with just a cut on his arm. All the double agents were killed before they could do anything. Khan was stabbed from behind from the Officer, but barely dodged just enough to have him miss the heart.
When Khan was on the floor bleeding out with Juki was trying to patch him up. Yaza just laughed and stepped on Khan¡¯s stomach saying how weak he was for being almost assassinated.
Rin was the only who truly cared Khan, but he never got injured or was depressed since he was under house arrest with her.
Another few minutes passed by as he pretended to be asleep. The girl didn¡¯t make any movement or sound. The only thing that could be heard was the rumbling of his stomach from hunger.
He felt something was being forced into his mouth. When Khan opened his eyes the girl was trying to force feed him red berries. Khan grabbed her hand.
¡°What are you doing?¡± Khan asked.
¡°You¡¯re hungry so I¡¯m feeding you berries.¡± The young girl replied tonelessly.
¡°I¡¯m not hungry.¡±
¡°Yes you are.¡±
Before Khan could respond his stomach rumbled louder.
¡°¡¡±
She tried to force the berries back into his mouth.
¡°Wait!¡± Khan yelled out.
¡°Yes?¡± The young girl replied.
¡°You¡¯re feeding me poison berries that young children can¡¯t eat.¡±
¡°Oh sorry, I didn¡¯t know.¡± The girl replied tonelessly as she tossed the berries back into the small brown leather shoulder bag she wore.
¡°Wait! I was wrong give me the berries.¡±
Khan was so focused on stopping her from feeding him so he can die from starvation that he could¡¯ve just had her feed him the poison berries instead to help him end his life more quickly.
¡°Sorry, just to be safe we¡¯ll just wait till we get home to get you food.¡± The girl replied.
¡°Don¡¯t worry about me, my family will come here and pick me up. Just leave me here.¡± Khan said.
¡°I can¡¯t do that. It¡¯s too dangerous to leave a young child like you in this woods alone.¡±
¡°Isn¡¯t it also dangerous for a young girl like you to be in this woods alone with this young child?¡±
¡°I can use magic.¡±
¡°Magic isn¡¯t real, I won¡¯t fall for those children story.¡± Khan replied.
Khan watched as the girl raised her hand toward the small tree in front of them.
¡°[Fireball]!¡± The girl said emotionlessly.
He saw a ball of fire fly from her hand, that was the size of a male adult head, hit the small tree to ignite it on fire.
Khan had his mouth wide opened as he watched this scene unfold in front of him. It wasn¡¯t powerful compared to the Ki attacks he had, but in the Ki world this was be extremely devastating because most Ki practitioner aren¡¯t able to expel Ki from their body for a long range attack until advance class, which took on average the age of 44 to achieve.
Support the creativity of authors by visiting Royal Road for this novel and more.
If young children could learn such long range attack like the [Fireball] she had just casted, then the battlefield would completely change.
Khan just stared with his mouth still wide at the young girl who had an expressionless face. It¡¯s been so long since he was surprised about something.
¡°Ok, we should go home now. My father will be worried about me.¡± The girl said.
Khan just nodded back to the girl as they got up from the ground. When they got up, she grabbed his hand tightly.
¡®Looks like she not going to let me run.¡¯ Khan laughed to himself.
Using a few harsh words Khan most likely could¡¯ve pushed the girl away, but he made a promise with Rin to be a much kinder man. Also he didn¡¯t feel like causing pain to a young girl who was trying to help him out.
He decided to find a way to run away later when she isn¡¯t looking so he can end his life.
¡°¡¡±
¡®I used to try my hardest to survive all my life, but now I¡¯m trying to my hardest to end it.¡¯ Khan laughed at himself again for this ridiculous situation.
Khan followed behind the girl with neither of them saying a single word. He let his mind drift off as he thought about Rin. The way she smelt, the sound of her voice when she called his name, and her warmth. The more he thought about Rin, His heart and body continued to sink heavier.
This was the first time Khan ever felt so strongly about someone death. Killing and the death of others felt natural in his life because he lived on the battle for his entire life.
After thinking deeply for what felt like an eternity, Khan was pulled back to reality when they stopped moving.
In front of Khan was a small mud cottage with a single door, two windows and, a straw roof. When he looked around at his surrounding, he noticed about 10-12 more small mud cottage that looked run-down compared to this young girl home. Beside those small mud cottages there was one bigger house that looked to be the head town official home, well, a church, and farmland on the other side of town. They didn¡¯t have paved roads, shops, garrisons, or a defensive wall. It was a rather undeveloped and impoverish village.
From behind Khan heard heavy footsteps. When he turned around it was a man in his 30¡¯s with black hair and brown eyes sprinting toward Khan and the young girl. The man wrapped his arms around the young girl when he reached her.
¡°Where were you? I was so worried that you didn¡¯t show up for magic class at the church!¡± The man said as he gasped for air.
¡°I was looking for food early in the morning when I found this boy sleeping on the ground.¡± The young girl replied neutrally.
¡°What, whose child is this!?¡±
¡°I don¡¯t know.¡±
¡°What do you mean, you don¡¯t know?¡± The man said to the young girl as he looked like he was about to have a heart attack.
¡°Give me a second father.¡±
Khan gazed back at the young girl who looked at him emotionlessly while her father was staring back and forth between Khan and the young girl.
¡°I should¡¯ve asked for this earlier, but what¡¯s your name?¡± The girl asked.
¡°My name is Khan.¡± Khan replied.
¡°Nice to meet you, my name is Yuna.¡±
Yuna turned her attention back to her father.
¡°Father his name is Khan.¡± Yuna said.
¡°¡¡±
There was awkward silently as Khan watched Yuna wait for a respond from her father.
¡°We have to return him to his family, Yuna.¡± The father said.
¡°No. I think we should avoid that topic. I decided to take Khan in to take care of him.¡± Yuna replied emotionlessly.
¡°What do you mean avoid it? This isn¡¯t something you can decide on your own.¡±
¡°Father, he isn¡¯t showing it now, but he has the same expression as you when mother, grandpa, and grandmother died. I will support him until his family personally comes pick him up or when he¡¯s healthy enough to take care of himself.¡±
¡°We just don¡¯t have enough food to support another member in the family.¡± The father said with a sad expression.
¡°He¡¯s a small child, I will give him a share of my food father. I will also forge for more food by skipping classes if I have to.¡±
Khan was grateful that she offered to protect him because this was the first time anyone ever wanted to protect Khan. When he was in the army, everyone assumed he was strong enough to protect himself so even as a general he would go to the frontlines without any bodyguards.
¡°Thank you Yuna, but I don¡¯t need any protection. I will be fine.¡± Khan said.
¡°No.¡± Yuna said bluntly as she clenched his hand tighter.
Khan gave up. He decided to find a way to escape later unnoticed. She can¡¯t keep a watch on him all day.
¡°Let¡¯s just go in the house so we can talk about what to do next.¡± The father said dejectedly.
Khan followed Yuna into the house as she pulled his hand.
In the house Khan saw a kitchen with a fire place, two counters to hold dry food, and plates with utensil on shelves. In the middle of the kitchen was a small wooden table to sit 6 people. There were three rooms with beds and wooden chest to hold their belonging.
Khan was seated by Yuna who sat next to him with her father across the table.
¡°My name is Russell, I¡¯m Yuna¡¯s father. Let me ask you a few questions if you don¡¯t mind young boy.¡± Russell said.
¡°Call me Khan.¡±
¡°Ok Khan, where is your family and where are you from.¡±
¡°I don¡¯t have family and I don¡¯t know where I¡¯m from.¡±
¡°¡¡±
¡°I think I¡¯m done for the day with all this madness from you and my daughter. I¡¯m going back to the field to work. Please stay within the village and I¡¯ll prepare dinner when I¡¯m back.¡± Russell said with a huge sigh as he left the cottage.
Khan turned his attention to Yuna who was gazing back at Khan as she continued to hold his hand.
¡°I¡¯m curious about magic, will you teach me some?¡± Khan asked.
¡°Yes, we can head to the church to get your affinity by the priest. He knows magic and can check affinities of others.¡± Yuna replied emotionlessly.
Khan got up as Yuna pulled him to the church.
