《Ascend to Be GOD》 Prologue and Chapter 1 - Birth (What is this sensation?) (I suddenly feel tired¡­ Felling like I¡¯m in some kind of cramped space¡­) I slowly opened my eyes. Now this is new. I was inside a jell-oh like substance surrounded by thin layered walls. Last thing I remember is that I was saving a lady from three rapists and was shot by one of them. I admit that I thought I died, but never thought that I would be waking up in a space surrounded by layers of skin like materials. Maybe this is like one of those sci-fi movies where some military organization or underground organization done some experiment on me. Sorry for them because if it where so, then I would kick their a** and escape from here no matter what. [Many may wonder why but I¡¯m what you would be calling a lone-wolf type. Why so because I like to be alone. This type of thought may be due to me being born as an orphan. Yes people my name is Leon, born in New York to a Couple who died when we were discharged from the hospital after my birth due to some guys tried theft and killed my father and raped and killed my mother] [I was raised in an orphanage which is a small one due to my parents being an orphan themselves. Well there was not much I cannot tell because it was an everyday life of an orphan except I had strong desire to become strong because soon after I learned the cause of my parents death. So I often did exercise and practice martial arts from a nearby Japanese old who I wondered sometimes too strong for his age. Don¡¯t think I did these for revenge. The law punished them, but i trained because I don¡¯t want to be weak like my dead parents to be killed by some maniacs. Believe me guys because its strong eats weak type of world] [I had education too and I put my mind in it. Because of my hard work on both studies and martial arts I was pretty high scored and athletic. I even learned boxing and karate in school. I did various part time jobs which helped me to learn various things like mechanics, electronics..etc in my neighborhood since most did not adopted me. Due to this I was made to be a weirdo but not bullied since I¡¯m strong] [After I finishing my high school I worked various jobs to save some money and get into a nice university due to my pretty good grades.] [Just finishing my part-time job on the night, I moved around to get a nice dinner for myself just to be found some manic rapists tried to rape a woman saved her and get myself killed or not. Maybe my dead parents cursed me for thinking them as weak] Well I have a weird feeling now because I¡¯m able to move around and feels like this is not some military facility since I can hear some woman¡¯s voice which is pretty soothing like she is singing. And what¡¯s more is that the language is different from English and I can sort of understand. Based on these facts and also something attached to my abdomen which supplied energy, I suddenly came to an conclusion that I have been reborn or rather reincarnated and that this is different world because I feel myself some kind of energy is surging with me. The author''s tale has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.Since its so I started to find the power source through meditation and it feels like its kind of ki or chi in martial arts term but slightly different and dared not to use it since I¡¯m still in the womb. After a month I was out of my mother¡¯s womb or rather born only to see the face of a women and a man bound to a chain in a wall with some ragged cloths and I¡¯m rolling on the floor with no one to clean the blood on my body. This is new! I have read manga¡¯s and novels where reincarnated people tend to find their parents or either some people show their mother with joyfulness and tell them the gender of the baby not like right now where I kind of understand that these people are in despair and I¡¯m in a caged room . Suddenly I heard some sound only to see three guys where two of them dressed in some iron armor and one in the center dressed in some high material cloth like priest in games. The priest guy came near what I thought to parents and snickered. Then in arrogant toned ¡°So my king in this stage you finally have been blessed with son it seems.¡± [Now I have confirmed three things: 1. My rebirth in another world since there are mostly hard to find a king in my world 2. My gender as Male and 3. The people that are locked in the chain are my parents and I¡¯m in jail] Priest: ¡±Now this is such a joyful occasion is it not, just that you, you queen and the baby is going to die the day after tomorrow.¡± Father (King): ¡°Brother I don¡¯t care if you take over the throne in righteous path or not but please don¡¯t destroy my hard work for the peace¡± Priest: ¡°Now now brother. The path of god in itself is righteous path and I the one who serves him and my actions is always righteous Brother or my soon to be ex-king hahaha (arrogantly)¡± Mother (Queen): ¡°Priest is it. Haha (smiling wryly) this is really a joyful occasion. The birth of the true ruler of this kingdom is it not. Did you come here for revelation for the prince?¡± Priest: ¡°You arrogant whore (shouting angrily).(Calmly)Well you are indeed the Queen. Even in this occasion, even with the fatigue of giving birth you still speak like this. But I think I told you that you and your husband will be executed with this infant and I¡®m the righteous ruler¡± Me: [This is sh*t. First I was killed while saving a lady and after my reincarnation to be executed after being born as an infant. But from the conversation it seems I¡¯m royalty and this shit head priest is my uncle] Soon my energy is depleted and the priest and the other two leave the room and I began to sleep. Chapter - 2 Naming Author: Thanks for reading my work to all. I¡¯m an amateur so please look after me in the future. Once again thanks for your kind support. ????????????????????????????????????????????-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 2 ¨C Naming While sleeping. I followed into the depth of my mind. Me: ¡°Its surrounded with nothing but blackness¡° Me: ¡°No¡± Me: ¡°I sense some energy¡± Me: ¡±This is the same energy¡± Me: ¡°Now what is this. It feels like I¡¯m in the middle of some light¡± Me: ¡°No, that¡¯s not it. This is the energy that is within me. Wow! I knew about ki but this is different¡± [You see my martial arts teacher taught about ki. It is like internal energy that is produced within the body. But this new energy is like something produced through my soul and like I¡¯m breathing itself] Me: ¡°Suddenly it feels like my hunger is solved. How?¡± In my mind, a voice is echoed ¡°Son. Son. Son.¡± Me: ¡±Yes¡± ¡°I am your Mother speaking. Can you understand?¡± Me: ¡°Yes. But how I am able to hear you? I¡¯m sleeping right?¡± Mother(Queen): ¡°Well aren¡¯t you a smart child(giggling). I¡¯m happy to give birth such a smart one. It is just that I am unable to cuddle you(sadly, tear dropping sound)¡± Mother(Queen): ¡°Well now, no time for self-introduction. There are two things I am going to do to you. 1. I will transfer the knowledge about the world and the knowledge about ourselves to your brain using magic 2. I will teleport you to a place which I arranged previously within the forest at the end of our country¡¯s border No need to worry my child that location is safe and I already arranged a maid there to take care of you. So be well my dear¡± After few minutes Mother(Queen): ¡°Right. I forgot one more important thing. I have yet to give you name. I will also give you the name which is I and your father decided it already.(calmly and warmly) Let people may call you as ¡®Woden Reinfield¡¯.¡± Mother(Queen): ¡° Woden,(sadly) you may think of ourselves as a horrible parents but please if you have an even ounce of forgiveness for us please forgive us for unable to embrace you and put you in this horrible state.¡± Me: ¡±Teleport. What is that?¡± [I got the gist of the situation but this Teleportation is what I think it is then why have they not used it? That is question I have now.] Mother(Queen): ¡°Woden, teleportation is a magic spell which helps to transport an object from one location to another. Don¡¯t worry you will gain my knowledge so you will know about it¡± [Dam mom I know that. But] Me: ¡°If so why don¡¯t you try yourself and on dad to teleport ? ¡± Mother(Queen): ¡°Well it¡¯s because teleporting a person is a forbidden spell. I will not transfer that spell to you. It is forbidden because the mana used for this will totally drain your life itself and only one person can be teleported¡± [So even here I¡¯m going to be orphaned. Now this is sh*tty situation indeed. Now what to do? I have energy but if I think what that is then we may able to do something] While thinking like that some light flashes [What is this? Lots of information is pouring inside me. Ahhhh!!!!!] Mother(Queen): ¡°Woden I have started to transfer the information to you. While I was talking with you I felt your mana. Its enormous for a human child and this will help you to synchronize the information passing to you.¡± Mother (Queen):¡± At first I doubted this spell will make your brain damaged but with your high mana you will able to handle it.¡± Mother(Queen): ¡±Be strong Woden. I only wish for your happiness and please try to save the people of this kingdom¡± Mother(Queen): ¡°You may realize you have a very high mana. But don¡¯t fret over not being able to utilize it to save us. It puts lot of stress on an infant. Train hard. Don¡¯t try to get revenge for us but save the people ¡± Mother(Queen): ¡°Child be strong and kind¡± Zap. *badump* *badump* *badump* *badump* Slowly opening my eyes. [Where is this?] [I was in the jail and having conversation with my mom. Then suddenly a light surrounded my body¡­] [No It can¡¯t be] [I was teleported] [Now I feel helpless] [Suddenly I have this large amount information] [So my mother died. I feel sad but not that much because I already was an orphan even in that world] [So this is Gaia. Well no need to fret over something that happened. Let¡¯s organize the information: 1. This world is called Gaia. The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.2. The races in this world are Dragons, Humans, Demons, Beastmen, Elf, Dwarfs and demi-humans live 3. Human rule over a separate continent in which there are three major kingdom namely
KingdomRulerSpecialityNeutralFriendlyEnemyWorship
TenriJoseph TenriTenri Magic Academy is famous and admits every other races.Sumai,Jonar,SeageReinfieldUslfarESHMUN ¨C God of magic and healing

4. Elven Continent is made up of four categories namely: a. High Elf ¨C High in magic, and worshipper of Gaia. They are royalties of elf and hate Dark Elf and lives in Celric country. b. Forest Elf ¨C Normal Elf but low in magic compared to high elf and high compared to humans and demi ¨C humans and worshipper of God of forest and gets along with other elf and beastmen and lives in both Celric and Higens Country. c. Wood Elf ¨C Like forest elf and lives in Higens country. d. Dark Elf ¨C Dark in color and doesn¡¯t get along with High Elf. They have low magic and mostly high physical power and lives in Wand country. 5. Beastmen Continent are made up of two countries Jar and Rei country and are composed of tribes based on their birth traits. 6. Dwellers Hills continent is a composition of hills and dungeons where Dwarfs live. Since its has high mineral proficiency, they are mostly fighters, craftsman.. etc. 7. Valley of Death and High Valley are hills and valleys where dragons and demi-human and other races live in the form of tribes. 8. Demon Continent unlike other continent has only one ruler i.e Reija DragSal and he rules with other ten of his follower who are composed of power that can rival High Elf. So this is how the Gaia is composed of] The other information that my mom passed on to me is the languages that are used in this with. The language in Human Continent are all the same and now I know Elven Language and Beastmen Language. The money system of this world is Copper, Silver and Gold. 1 Gold = 10 Silver and 1 Silver = 100 Copper It seems that other than the Human Continent, most of the races either don¡¯t follow god or either don¡¯t have name of their God. It bugs me of this God of this world because there is a blessing system in Human Continent which pushes even a commoner to a noble if he has a higher God Blessing. This blessing system also will help me to find which god brought me here. I will have to find this about later. It seems there is Slave system in this world. The one who my mom arranged to take care of this place i.e the person who is starring me right now with eyes wide opened looking at me like I¡¯m kind of some weird infant because I haven¡¯t cried or done anything since i came here is a Women slave. Well I will just cry and get some sleep so that she don¡¯t think of me as a weirdo and I have to process lot of information which are still slowly entering into memory] Me: ¡± Waa, waa, waa¡± Slave women: (getting flustered by sudden crying baby)¡±Sorry young master for starring at you¡± (fidgety run outs of the room and gets some milk for the baby) [I started to drink the milk and get some sleep] ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Author: Thanks for Reading. :ahhh: :ahhh: :ahhh: :ahhh: :ahhh: Chapter - 3 History & Slave Author: Thanks for reading my work to all. I¡¯m an amateur so please look after me in the future. Once again thanks for your kind support. ????????????????????????????????????????????--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 3 ¨C History and Slave Deep in my mind while sleeping. Getting into the depths of my memory. [My mother¡¯s name is Maria Reinfield who was born as a noble with high magic proficiency and is one of those genius in the Tenri Magic academy. It seems after graduation, my mom joined Adventures Guild and had lot of adventures and met my father Grey Reinfield while acting as a guard for a noble lady who came to marry my dad. It seems it was love at first sight for my dad and when he proposed to my mom not to the noble lady there was a lot commotion until they found out that my mom belongs to one of the High Noble Family of the Tenri Kingdom. My mom¡¯s parent are dead while doing some magic experiments and the estate was transferred to her Uncle, who in greed of the money, sent my mom soon to Tenri Magic academy. Well she didn¡¯t care for her property and had fun in the academy. Now, my father who is the King of Reinfield ¡®Grey Reinfield¡¯ was a man with inborn talents for both combat and magic, but not getting high due to the power he possess, was a kind man who was loved by people and few nobles and was hated by large number of nobles due to my father¡¯s policies in ruling and his brother ¡®Den Reinfield¡¯ since he was not able to get the throne from him. Den Reinfield who took another route by becoming High Priest using the hatred of the noble for my dad caused lot of commotion when my father thought of a peace treaty towards the Demon Kingdom to avoid bloodshed in the name of ¡®Holy War¡¯ towards Demons. When the treaty was about to be signed in which even the Demon Continent also liked it, Den used this as a sign and usurped the throne and put both my father and mother who is pregnant in a jail by using the nobles. My mother, Maria Reinfield unlike my father had both kind and cunning personality. When she became Queen she was aware of the hatred towards my father of various noble and his brother, she secretly found a place surrounded by forest and sea and created a building without anyone knowing, using her previous adventures connection. She then bought a slave who had a disease which causes Mana Depletion due to some poison that slave took from some circumstance. Her name is ¡®Ellen¡¯ and is a demi-human born to a noble and a beastmen slave. Ellen will die within four years so Maria bought her and gave her only one command i.e if they were not able to escape from castle, if any commotion takes place, she will transfer her child to this place and Ellen will take care of the child until she dies. Since Mana Depletion disease can¡¯t be cured Ellen who was in despair and when she was bought by Maria she found a ray of light where she can die a painless death under the kindness of Maria] Slowly opening the eyes. Ellen lying next to me. Snoring sound [Man I thought she died when she was lying like that, only to be found alive when she snored (chuckles)] [From the information I have and through the time estimation (seems like my previous world), this lady will die within 3years and 5months] [So when I was almost four she will die. Well that kind of sucks] [So unlike my father who is strong and kind, my mom is strong as well as kind and cunning] [Man, how much did she predicated the unfold events. Truly it sucks to be her opponent] [So this huge power I have within me is Mana, eh. And it can be increased using meditation, hmm] [Well that suits my situation. I can¡¯t walk so I can just meditate and get used to it] [While at that I have to process a little more information from my mother. Let see: Guild System - Well as the name sounds it is comprised of people with a particular goal or job and is situated in every continent in Gaia 1. Adventures Guild ¨C This guild as the name sounds, formed for adventures and jobs are mostly compromised like hunting, guard, labyrinth and dungeon clearing, etc. and earn money from it. There is ranking system from F to SSS and the jobs can be taken based on the ranking of the person. Various Continent Soldiers doesn¡¯t attack adventures except during war times. Anyone can enter at the age of 15. 2. Merchant Guild ¨C As the name sounds, group of merchants who mainly control the economics of each continent on background. Merchants also go to various continents and are not attacked by the soldiers of each continent except during war time. 3. Mercenary Guild ¨C Are group for mercenary who mainly participate for war and raids and also act as guards. They are mainly favored by Jonar Kingdom and Demon Continent andWand country but other countries only allow them if there is a job for them. 4. Dark guilds ¨C Is a combination of Slave Merchants, Thief¡¯s and others who follow dark sect. Except Slave Merchants other parties are not welcomed by any other countries except Uslafr country. 5. Magic Guild ¨C Combination of Council of Mage from Tenri and Other Magicians from all over the continent. Favored by almost every continent except Uslafr Country. Can only enter if they have high magic proficiency or through Tenri Magic Academy. Royal Road is the home of this novel. Visit there to read the original and support the author. Well other than these information Maria passed be three spells which can only be after I become Five and one spell which I can use it now. 1. Status Hide Spell ¨C Used to create fake status which can be used in any Guilds. This spell known only to the Royalty and helps to hide from informants. 2. Teleport object Spell ¨C Which is a lower version of teleportation spell that can only be used to teleport objects. Well that sucks. I want to teleport too. Alright I will research on it later. 3. Status Spell ¨C Helps to view status. Status can be viewed through status card provided in the Temple. But using this spell I can generate my own status card 4. Telepathy Spell ¨C Helps to talk to people through Mind voice. It seems she is the one that invented this spell through various research[wow! mom I thought you were an adventurer but a researcher] It was already invented in theory but the one who invented the practical use is Maria which earned the title prodigy. This is the only spell which I can use now] Got exhausted with all these information. [I need some food] [Alright let¡¯s use telepathy on Ellen and ask her food. But how to use magic and telepathy?] [What to do? Since I can¡¯t speak. Dammit!!!] [Calm down Leon. No its Woden now] [Since I don¡¯t know have a clue about magic all I will do is cry so she will give me food] [Mom really even though you transferred me the spells, you didn¡¯t even bother to transfer me the very basic knowledge on how to use magic?] [Really are you genius or scatter brain] Me: ¡°Waa¡­ Waa¡­ Waa..¡± [Mom did you send me to the wild without any surviving skills or want me develop my surviving skills. I really don¡¯t know what she really thinks] [Really. If it were any other child it would¡¯ve died due to the pain in the brain while processing these information that has gone two days] [Maybe I¡¯m lucky that I was reincarnated with my old memories intact, else even I would¡¯ve died] [Ah, I forgot. Today is the day of execution of my dad] [Shit I want to know what happened] Ellen¡¯s POV ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [Now what should I do?] [Young master suddenly started to cry and I can¡¯t even cuddle him fearing my disease may affect him] [Well I will go and get the food. If he doesn¡¯t stop crying even after that I don¡¯t know what to do only to pray the god.] While preparing food Woden [But he is a weird child. I know Master Maria is weird because she built a cave like house in this remote place near the Reinfield Border Forest and order me to take care of her child that she will teleport in case of emergency] [Even so I can¡¯t complain. When I was sold as a slave by my father, who is a noble, who used me as a meat shield when some assassin came to kill him. Because of him, the deadly poison entered my body only to know that I will die within four years] [Master Maria is the only person who bought me from the Slave trader and arrange medicine for me which easy my pain till I die] [My Master never even bothered to tell me her family detail. She just told me that some people target her and her husband which she was in life threatening situation. At first I thought that that she too will use me as a meat shield when the situation occurs but she gave only one order which is to take care of this place and young master when the need arises which pulled me from despair] [Well what do you expect from a demi-human slave born to a noble and to his slave beastmen. My mother who comes from Dog Tribe of the beastmen got into debt and sold as a sex slave and died while giving birth to me to that noble. He didn¡¯t treat like his child but a free sex slave] [Really his own child. Well I was glad now that I¡¯m free from but this situation is pretty dire] Giving food to Woden [Why? Because I¡¯m taking care an infant who carefully observes each and every corner of the room including me] [Well, I will die within three years anyway] [Now I need to go to nearby village to restock the food supply and medicine] Woden sleeps [He is cute when he sleeps though. From what Master Maria told me his name should be Woden and she hadn¡¯t given any information about herself and didn¡¯t contact me even when she transferred the child here] [I have no idea how she did but from her instruction if Young Master Woden arrives here alone then something must have happened to them and the Rights of Slave will be transferred to him] [Well I didn¡¯t thought young master Woden will an infant] [Well he is my Master now who I have to take care till my death] --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Author: Thanks for reading........ :panda: :panda: Chapter - 4 Growing Up Author: Thanks for reading my work to all. I¡¯m an amateur so please look after me in the future. Once again thanks for your kind support. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 4 ¨C Growing Up Three months have passed. A child, sitting on the floor and doing something which most children wouldn¡¯t dare to do. His entire body is glowing and little by little solidifying. Slowly the light is covered his whole body and stabilized around him. Then he started to sit there as he closed his eyes and started to meditate. It seems as if he has a habit of doing this daily when no one is around the small cave house he is living in. An hour has passed and light surrounded him slowly and he calmly opens his with an exhausted look. Woden:[Well this is really exhausting] Woden:[But this started to help me understand on how to use magic] Woden:[Is my method really correct. Alright today I will finally try to use telepathy on Ellen ones she came back from shopping] Woden:[Just remember on how my mom talked to on that day] Woden:[But from the stories from Ellen on how she met my mom, I kind of understand how she didn¡¯t freaked when she used telepathy on me and how our conversation went on] Woden:[She is a women with scatter brain and does what is on her mind and doesn¡¯t bother to hear other opinion. Well that helped me tough] Sound of someone walking into the house. Woden:[Ah. Ellen came home] --------------------------------------------------------- Ellen¡¯s POV Ellen:[Finally finished shopping for this month ration] Ellen:[But really, that old coot, his eyes are really awful. Always looking me pervertedly] Ellen: ¡±Ah. Master Woden. I came home after finishing shopping¡± Ellen: (Smiling) ¡°Really. Seeing Masters cute face helps me calm down¡± Suddenly a childish voice echoed on my mind ¡°Ellen¡­ Ellen¡­¡± Ellen: (Startled by the voice, she soon carefully picks up Woden and tremblingly)¡±Who is there?¡± Woden:[So it is successful. All right] Woden:[mind voice]¡±Don¡¯t be afraid Ellen, It¡¯s me Woden¡± Ellen: (Once again startled by the reply and Looking at Woden and placing him carefully at bed)¡±Demon that has possessed my Master, get out¡±(Yelling) Woden:[mind voice] (He was happy because unlike his mother she didn¡¯t gladly accepted that a child can speak)¡±Don¡¯t worry nothing possess me. It is just that my mother Maria has transferred he knowledge to me that I can speak¡± Ellen: (Unable to understand what just happened) ¡°Really. Master you are not telling me lies right?¡± Woden:[mind voice]¡±No. Not at all. Even you should know what kind absurd my mom is right¡± Ellen: ¡°Ah, that¡¯s right. If its master the she should be able to do these kind of things, since she is absurdly strong¡± Woden:[mind voice]¡±Well I know little about her absurdness from what happened to me and also from your stories and she passed me this spell to talk to others¡± Ellen: (finally calm)¡±Yes. Wait then master could speak like this since the day he arrived here. And can even use magic at this young age¡± Woden:[mind voice]¡±No no, just recently I got this information and learned only how to use this one¡±(Even she will find weird if I say yes) Ellen: ¡±Is that so. Well master must be genius like Master Maria right. Then I want to only one thing master. What happened to Master Maria and your family since she didn¡¯t tell me much about herself and only placed me here after I got purchased¡± Woden: [Dang, I want to collect information but it goes other way around. What to do?] Woden:[Alright, I will do this, mind voice]¡±Well if my memory serves correct, it seems my parents are friends with this kingdoms king and since there was danger lurking around them I was transferred here after I was born. So Ellen what happened after I have arrived? and why are calling me master since my mother should be you master right?¡± Ellen:[Wow master sounds like an adult. Well Master Maria herself is weird so I can¡¯t expect her son to be normal either. Is weirdness a family trait or something?](In her own thoughts) Woden:[Oh no she started to think. This is not good, mind voice]¡±Ellen¡± Ellen:[startled again] ¡°Sorry master. If what you said is certainly true then Master Maria should be dead by now because the Slave Master seal is on young master wrist. You can see the sign in your left hand wrist. And from the day you arrived lot of things have change. First is this countries king ¡®Grey Reinfield¡¯ is executed after two days from your arrival and the queen is dead in the jail due to miscarriage. Now king¡¯s younger Brother and also High Priest ¡®Den Reinfield¡¯ is currently ruling the kingdom¡± Woden:[ Sh*t . I didn¡¯t notice the sign and those f*cking a*sh*les. So they make it like I was never even born eh](in his own thought) Ellen: ¡±But really, its awful out there you know master. Well I know you can¡¯t understand what I¡¯m about say but the kingdom is doomed I tell you¡± Ellen: ¡±Ah, Now I understand, why Master Maria didn¡¯t even tell me about herself except that she is a SS-Class adventurer and a Grand Mage, so us not put in harms. So master, what are we going to do? I will die in three years and you will be only a three year old child. How are you going to take care of yourself? I¡¯m worried because Master Maria is like a savior to me you know¡± Woden:[Ah so she thinks of my mom as her savior even though she is her slave. I can¡¯t understand the concept of this world] Woden:[mind voice]¡± We will think of something. Ellen please prepare me food I¡¯m starving due to exhaustion¡± Ellen: ¡±Right. I will prepare some right now¡± Woden[mind voice]:¡±One moment Ellen, what is this sign means?¡± Ellen: ¡±Ah, that¡¯s the sign I¡¯m talking about. It shows that you are my master and I¡¯m your slave because I too have the same mark which is magically connected. Until this sign is lifter or contract ends I can¡¯t attack you directly or indirectly and I will die if master dies, unless if the condition states that after you die i either become free or the contract is passed to someone else¡± Woden:[is that so, wait that means she will die if I die, mind voice]¡±Then what happen if I die right now ellen¡± Ellen: ¡±Well I will die too, I think so. Because mostly when the slave contract transfers to other person it comes with unconditional i.e the slave will die. So if you want to change the condition then we have ask any slave trader to change the condition. But master can¡¯t since he doesn¡¯t have a stats card and you are still child.¡± Woden:[mind voice]¡±Thanks. ¡± Ellen:¡±I will prepare the food then¡± Woden:[First thing first. I got to learn how to practice thins magic thingy and also come with some sort of plan so I can be take care till my age is Ten else I may end up like slave] -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- It¡¯s been a year now and Woden is finally able to walk and talk normally. Woden:¡±Whew. I was able to walk normally now and also speak. Now I don¡¯t have to use magic every time if I need to ask something to Ellen now¡± Woden:¡±Where has she gone now? Ya, she went to the village to get this month portion and her medicine. Alright I will practice my magic now that no one is here.¡± This content has been misappropriated from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere. Woden started to gather up his mana and infused with water to create Water Ball Spell. He knows how to use magic from the conversation with Ellen past these days and since she can¡¯t use magic due to her illness she gave a vague idea from which Woden started his own theory from the spell he used for Telepathy and started to practice it. Due to his theory, he doesn¡¯t need to recite the Spell to use magic rather he has to have a clear imagination of what kind of effect he wants. Through practicing secretly he was now able to do elementary magic effortlessly and what¡¯s more is that he can increase his fire power based on his will. At first there was a lot of exhaustion due to heavy usage of mana to increase fire power but he found another way by using the mana around him and was able increase the output of the spell using his mana very low. Woden returned home finishing magic practice After five minutes Ellen enters the house with the rations and medicine Ellen: ¡°Good afternoon Master. How was your day? You didn¡¯t leave the home right. The village became worse than before and there are lot bad vibe around the village now¡± Woden:[I want to see for myself]¡±I just sat near the door and watching the birds Ellen. So is it awful out there?¡± Ellen: ¡±Yes master. I¡¯m afraid we must evacuate this place soon or else we may get in trouble sooner or later¡± Woden: ¡°No Ellen. This is a safe place since there are barriers around the house placed by my mother And I¡¯m a child, which will cause problem if we get into any troublesome situation¡± Ellen: [Thinks for a minute and her face turns blue and nods strongly] Woden: [(deep in thought) Even if she thinks of me as weird I don¡¯t mind. Right now safety is more important than anything else. I don¡¯t care how people may think of my actions. Survival of the fittest is the world no matter where tough and I need to improve my training but I¡¯m still stuck because I don¡¯t have information based on magic and this body needs two more years to practice my martial arts skill. Really my situation gets f*cked up day by day] Ellen:[Really is master a one year old child or what. Every time he speaks it is as if I hear an experience adult speaks his thought. Just what is he? Or any demon possess him? I can¡¯t judge him at all. That¡¯s right I forgot an important thing]¡±Master, Happy Birthday, you were asleep while I was gone for shopping and I couldn¡¯t wish you¡± Ellen kissed on Woden¡¯s forehead which startled Woden and blushes Woden: ¡±Thank you Ellen¡± Ellen: ¡±And Master Maria gave a pouch to present to you on your first birthday. Here Please¡± Ellen gives the pouch and Woden opens it. He finds a key in it. Woden: ¡°Ellen did my mother mentioned anything about this¡± Ellen: ¡°Ah, yes master there is underground room and this is the key for it. But it can be only used by you Master. She told me to give this to you as your birthday present¡± Woden: ¡°Well then shall we find what is in there?¡± Ellen: ¡±Yes Master¡± [There is an underground room which was not used or rather I thought it¡¯s just a store room but this is. Let¡¯s see what it holds] Woden opens the door and startled by what is in front of him. Ellen too is startled by the seeing the room. Woden: ¡°Do you anything about this Ellen?¡± Ellen:¡±Ah, no master, this is the first time I¡¯m coming to this room and Master Maria said it can be only opened by you. So I didn¡¯t bother to check on it¡± The room which startled them is a collection of objects like various books; cloths for Woden varied on his age even the girl version, gold, silver and copper coins, weapons like swords, staffs, magic staffs, bow, and even various crafting material, magic items etc. And there was a table and a piece of paper on it. Woden takes the paper and an image props out Maria:¡°Dear child I¡¯m Maria your mother, if you are reading this means you are alone with Ellen then. Well at first Happy Birthday!. Now I will tell you about this place at first. It is a safe house designed by myself. Even your father doesn¡¯t know about this. The items here are even purchased by my money earned from my adventuring and research materials. I have done this because of safety precautions. Things must have gone wary out there then. Well you don¡¯t need worry about it. Walk your own path. There are various manuals from how to read to higher level magic concepts. Child I will ask only two things, judge the world by yourself and take action and be strong and kind. Live well my dear. Good bye¡± Image vanishes and letter gets disappears. Tears flow from woden and ellen comforts him. After an hour or two Woden starts to browse the items in the room and Ellen started to prepare the lunch. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There was a heavy rain pouring outside the forest. Woden goes from kitchen to refill the water in a bowl. Ellen is coughing a lot and is put in the bed. Woden hurriedly comes and cleans the sweating areas in ellen¡¯s face Ellen: ¡°cough. cough. Ah master three years fly¡¯s very right¡± Woden:¡±Yes Ellen. It¡¯s alright don¡¯t speak too much. I have read every book in the room but I¡¯m unable to find a cure for ellen. Sorry¡± Ellen: ¡±I¡¯m not worried about that master. I¡¯m worried about you. Even though you have a mind comparable to adult you are still a child master, how are you able to live from now on? I¡¯m worried about that master. The situation is ¡®cough, cough , gasp, gasp¡¯ in other country side as well on the village(interrupted)¡± Woden:¡±Stop Ellen. Don¡¯t worry about me. I will train hard and be able to live on my own without any problems. Ok. So close your eyes and take some rest. Please¡± Ellen:¡±Yes master¡± [Yes it¡¯s been three and half years since I was born in this world. I started to work my a*s of by reading the books in the room so I can improve my understanding and power of my magic. It seems only one elemental magic like fire, earth, water, lightning, air and void can be used based on the affinity of the person. But I can use every elemental magic to its fullest. And I don¡¯t need to recite any spells since and also using the mana in the nature i was able to create even new spells which not by most of the magicians do, because it may cause mana poisoning due to the nature of the mana being pure on the surrounding. But this didn¡¯t affect me and I also found that elven magic also has similarities to my own theory except that they can only use half of the nature mana. These books my mom presented holds lot of information but the magic academy holds even more than this. But even with these I was still unable to find cure for ellen and now she is in deathbed] Ellen: ¡±(mumbling) Don¡¯t look worried master. One day you too will become a great person than Master Maria and I¡¯m sure of it take care master (closes her eyes)¡± On that night Ellen died and Woden disposed the body by burning her so that she may not become some kind of undead at morning. Woden then takes bath while staring at the sky. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Author: Thank you for reading the chapter Chapter - 5 Journey Author: Thanks for reading my work to all.

A kid with 12 years of age, a body without an ounce of fat in it, in the chair near the lake, reading a book while placing a fishing pole in the lake waiting for the bait to be caught. From the forest an animal, looking like a lion with the height of a horse approaches the kid and sits near him. Noticing the animal he pats the animal and it makes a pleasant face even though from the looks of it, it can be proved that it is the Lord of the Forest. Then the kid checks his status card which has astonishing status for a kid Name: Woden Reinfield Age : 12 Race: Human Level: 10 Class: - HP: ¡Þ MP: ¡Þ STR: 250 AGI: 260 INT: 200 WIS: 150 Title: Fallen Price, The Immortal Woden:¡±(sighs) Every time I see it I¡¯m getting goose bumps. Just what am I, a human and an immortal. I can understand my status on strength and other stuff but not my HP and MP. (Sighs) Well pondering around is not going to help me either¡± A fish took the bait. Woden:¡±Alright I caught a fish. For tonight I¡¯m going to have these fish and fruits I have already collected¡± After dinner, woden gazing at the stares It¡¯s been nine years after Ellens death. Woden started to live in the place by hunting the animals for food and started his physical training which was very smooth compared to his last life. He then began to explore the forest and located couple of village on other side of the forest. He didn¡¯t visit any of those village because anything may happen to him till he attained 5years. When he gotten to his 5th birthday he first produced his status card which gave him a shock because of the HP and MP which is infinite. At first he thought that he done something wrong during the spell cast but changed his mind after seeing title ¡®The Immortal¡¯. Woden thought of getting the status card from the temple so that he could verify it again but that thought is also halted because some troublesome situation may occur if the palace knew about his name and the status. There are some doubts on his status because of the exhaustion from using magic but that too is cleared when his age started to progress. The metal exhaustion created by using magic doesn¡¯t have anything to do with mana depletion. When he first realized this he was grinning for a while because what kind of invincible person he turned out to be. Woden started to train even more which resulted him to improve in both physically combat and mana combat. At the age of seven when woden went to hunting he came across the lord of the forest. From the encyclopedia that were in his books he got the species name Tyron, which is lion type animal at the size of an Elephant and has speed of cheetah and power of compared to an elephant on earth. He thought of testing himself by battling it, which he used both magic combat and physical combat and he won with overwhelming victory at the cost of the Tyron¡¯s life. When he thought of burning the corpse the child of the tyron came near it and started to lick the body. Woden is not a kind person but he is not a guy who doesn¡¯t have compassion to animals either. He picked up the child with him and started to raise him with him so he could have company. Unauthorized usage: this tale is on Amazon without the author''s consent. Report any sightings. When woden began ten he started to visit the neighbor villages by wearing ragged cloths and bought rations for himself and started to collect information about the past seven years from various merchants he visited. At first the merchants were suspicious of woden but when some sees him selling the loots from the hunt they thought that the child is supporting himself by hunting in the forest and also they got interest in him due to his bargaining skills and negotiation skills with the customers and merchants. Some merchants asked woden to work with them for selling goods for low pay. Woden got himself job at pharmacist shop and blacksmith shop and sometimes works at other merchant shop on free time. Till now woden worked his ass of at various places and found information on what is going on the central continent of the Reinfield and found the reason for the poor condition of the villages. Since Den Reinfield cannot become King due to him being a high priest he placed a puppet king from the high noble family named ¡®Sull Cali¡¯. After that they started to send soldiers to wage war against the Demon continent but were defeated. Out of goodwill towards the previous King of Reinfield the Demon Emperor ¡®Reija DragSal¡¯ left the soldiers only with the warning that the next time they will be devoured. Because of this is humiliation, the kingdoms name was tarnished and also the tax was heighten to compensate the money used in war. Many people left for various countries for settlement and other kingdoms in the human continent severed their ties with Reinfield. The noble family who supported Grey Reinfield are either sold as slaves or killed of being traitor towards the temple and the kingdom. Many countries stopped accepting people from Reinfield due to over population and also caution toward the actions led by Reinfield during the usurp of throne. Since nowhere people are leading devastated life. From collecting all these information woden thought of his mother¡¯s request to bring peace to the kingdom. But Woden needs army and various supports from various people to do this. So woden thought to travel from the forest at the when attains age 12. The next day after his birthday Woden:¡±Now let¡¯s pack few things needed for travelling and devise a plan to over throw the kingdom. [After few minutes of thinking, he thought of a plan. First become famous from each and every country and get audience with the kings of other kingdom and draft an army to over throw the kingdom and become king.] Well easier said than done¡± Woden:¡±Jack, Jack ¡± Calling his pet tyron Woden:¡±We will cross the hill so I could cross the border. Jack you must take me to other side of the hill and once it is done protect my house¡± While giving orders to his pet woden covered the entire cave using earth magic and closed so that no one will find the place except for him. With a small bag of clothes and few copper, silver and gold coins and duplicated status card which hides original wodens information and with two iron blades in the hip woden climbed on the back of jack and started to travel to Tenri Kingdom by crossing the hill. After crossing the hill, woden ordered jack to protect the place. He left walking the grassland before him In the smell of a new adventure. ------------------------------------------------------ Chapter 6 – Tia and Nail, The Bandit Queens Author: Thanks for reading my work to all. I¡¯m an amateur so please look after me in the future. Once again thanks for your kind support. ????????????????????????????????????????????-------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 6 ¨C Tia and Nail, The Bandit Queens A breeze was gracing a young boy lying on the ground which showed his face. The eyes of the boy gave a predator sensation around the animals that are retreating from him to save their own life. The boy¡¯s stomach gave a loud sound as if it was demanding to fill it. Suddenly the boy realized that there are some people fighting few meters ahead of him. The boy stood and started to run in the direction of where the sound came with the eyes determined to find food for him. A merchant group with hired guards fighting the bandit group which attacked their caravan. In the bandit group a girl was casting magic calling on of her comrade ¡°Tia, take care of the rear guard¡± and Tia casting body enhancement spell on herself ¡°I will take care of it, finish the last group Nail¡± responded to the mage Nail. The boy was watching their actions concealing in the forest and when the bandit group finished their action he made his move by approaching them muttering ¡°At last food¡±. Tia and Nail where happily chatting with their group and suddenly ordered their group for attack formation while gazing a boy who looks almost their age, approached them muttering something. Tia: ¡°Who are you? Leave your belongings and die¡± stating a dialogue and not waiting for the response castes body enhancement spell and approached the boy with high speed to attack him. But the boy saw her approach and dodged quickly from the slash and hit her solar plexus with the palm and released ki by doing a step in and defeated her. When the group saw this they immediately surrounded the boy and were cautious not to underestimate him. This irritated the boy because he was in hunger. When one of the approached him the did a step in and hit blocked his slash and hit his chin with his palm which made the man kneel down and dodged another slash from other side using a stomp kick and broke the knee of another guy and the did a back flip to avoid the fireball sent by Nail to attack him. The boy was even more irritated now because of the mages action since he doesn¡¯t have any experience in fighting a mage and also due to the lacks of information about Nail. When the boy was staring at Nail, two guys started to attack him and another one prepared a bow to attack him. Realizing this, the boy used ki all over his body and did a tornado kick on one guy by hitting his head and the other guy when he approached with his sword, the boy uses punch counter wrist turn very fast and took his sword and throws it towards the archer which make the archer to dodge with surprise since he didn¡¯t expected this kind of attack. When this was all over the boy was hit behind with a water ball which he didn¡¯t realize due to him distracted by the fight and made him unconscious. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The boy wakes up from his unconscious state only to find out that he is tied in a hut with his underwear and the mage lady in front of checking his belongings and giving oreder to others and finds commotion in the near hut. When one Bandit Guy1 came inside the hut Nail: ¡°Did you send the information to uncle? So how is Tias condition, is she alright and what are the injuries?¡± Bandit guy1: ¡±Madam we sent message about the boy to Sir Helius. Lady Tia is not that well. We don¡¯t what that guy did but her breathing is unstable and coughs blood¡± Suddenly mumbling from the boy which makes Nail to outburst her anger towards him Nail: ¡°(slapping the boy) What did you do to her?¡± The boy: ¡°(low voice) Don¡¯t worry I know what is wrong with her, Just give me some food. I haven¡¯t eaten for nearly seven days. If you give me food, I will say about the injury¡± Nail: ¡°Alright bring some food for the prisoner. Now tell me¡± The boy tells her what injury was caused to Tia after his hands are freed and food is given. Nail watches the boy devouring the food placed in front of him and starts to inquiry about him. Nail: ¡°So boy your name is Woden?¡± Woden: ¡±Before asking that tell me your name lady?¡±(eating the food) Suddenly a Bandit Guy2 entering the hut Nail: ¡°What is it? Don¡¯t disturb while interrogation¡± (angrily because of the interrupt) Bandit Guy2:¡±Sorrry Lady Nail. Sir Helius is on his way. He asked to wait till he arrives¡± Nail:¡±Is that so. Well there is no problem then¡± Bandit Guy1 entered the hut Stolen content warning: this content belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences. Bandit Guy1:¡±Lady Nail. Lady Tias injury are healed and she is currently eating meals.¡± Nail: ¡±That¡¯s good then. Please thank the healers on my behalf then.¡± Bandit Guy1 leaves the hut Woden seeing all this Woden: ¡±Well I will on my way then¡± Nail: ¡°You won¡¯t be going anywhere¡± Casts some magic and restrains him but Woden breaks the restrain and glared at her Woden:¡±Look here kid. I don¡¯t know who you are but don¡¯t think you can capture like you did the other time¡± A guy with 40 years of aged look enters when this was going on Guy: ¡±Now now, everybody relax. What is all this commotion about? Bring some meals here will you¡± The new Guy Orders other guys and everybody followed his words. Nail: ¡±Welcome Uncle Helius. This is the guy who is the cause of the commotion¡± Helius: ¡°Is that so. Lad sit down will you. Let¡¯s have a small talk¡± Normally Woden would just rushed away from this place but after seeing the swords hilt in Helius he thought something is not right so to get information he sat and order another set of meals for him Helius : (Looking at the status plate of Woden) ¡°So Woden is it. Where did you get this plate from?¡± Woden: (without knowing what he asked) ¡°Well the temple of course¡± Helius:¡±Not that Lad. This is a fake. Do you think I wouldn¡¯t know about this after seeing this? Now answer my question properly¡± (pointing his sword towards Woden) Seeing this Nail was surprised and Woden too. But when swords is pointed towards him with killing intent he too started to emit his killing intent which surpassed Helius and both Nail and Helius felt that started to sweat. Woden:¡±Don¡¯t point your sword at me old man. First state who you are all and I will answer your question¡± Helius:¡±Alright Woden. Everybody except us get out the hut.¡± Ordered the others and again ¡°first tell us whether you are spy or not then I will answer you¡± Woden: (stopped emitting his killing intent)¡± Well I¡¯m neither a noble nor a spy ok old man¡± Helius: ¡°(smirking) Well then. Hello I¡¯m Helius Leopold Leader of the Rebel Army of Reinfield, is that information ok¡± Woden:¡±(lol) What I see is Bandits not some rebel army old man. But that didn¡¯t explain who you and that lady over there isn¡¯t¡± Helius:¡±Alright, Well before this I severed as the Captain of Royal Guards for Reinfield is that ok now¡± Nail: ¡±Well my name is Nail Theopold and the one you attacked is my sister Tia Theopold and we are known as Queen of Bandit in this Kalpa region and we belong to Rebellion Army of Reinfield. Is that ok¡± Suddenly Tia entered the hut and started to attack Weldon. But Helius stopped her and now she is sitting in the room with grumbling in the room Helius: ¡°Come on Tia. I know you are mad but please control yourself.¡± Woden:¡±Hey you are one who attacked me first. What are so angry about now?¡± Tia stared at Woden with the killing intent but he doesn¡¯t fazed by it. Nail calmed down Tia and the conversation started Helius: ¡°Is the information ok lad. Now state about yours and how did you get a hold of this status plate¡± Woden: ¡°Is that ok old man you stating about rebellion against a Kingdom to a stranger¡± Helius: ¡°Well I know you are strong but for some reason I want to trust you¡± Woden:¡±(chuckles) Well my name is Woden and the status plate is generated by me using spell¡± Helius: ¡°(astonished by the reply) That can¡¯t be. Only the King and Queen know about this spell. How can you know about it? I¡¯m positive even the current King of Reinfield doesn¡¯t know about this spell and either High Priest. Tell me who you really are kid¡± Nail and Tai hearing this too were astonished by this information since they doesn¡¯t know about it. Woden: ¡°How did you know of this old man?¡± Helius:¡±Well I got this information from Queen Maria Reinfield before I was relived from my post. (Angered due to his lose tongue) That is not the issue here. How did you that spell kid? Answer me now¡± And Helius thought that he is being played by a kid, stood up with his sword drawn and by seeing his action Nail and Tia too stood up to attack Woden Woden: [(in his thought) so mom planned something] ¡°(lol) Well old man, my name is Woden, Woden Reinfield, son of Late King Grey Reinfield and Late Queen Maria Reinfield and (infusing mana to his vocal cord) Kneel Before Me (lol)¡± Suddenly Helius, Nail and Tia kneeled without them knowingly and sweat formed in their forehead and their eyes were wide open by the action they did unknowingly and Woden laughed at this. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapter 7 – Questions and Answers Author: Thanks for reading my work to all.

At first i named the current King of Reinfiled with the name Sull Cali but changed to ''Sull Ichi'' for stories convenience sake. ????????????????????????????????????????????--------------------------------------- Chapter 7 ¨C Questions and Answers Ron, Capital City if Reinfield which consists of 100 Noble family and 50 High Noble Families. In this there are four High Noble Families which dominates others. The other people who live in this city are mostly high ranking officials in the army and Kingdoms government.

Inside the head Temple of Qadeshtu , a man around his mid-30s is anxiously waiting near the High Priest room with a paper. And enters the room when he is called. Den Reinfield: ¡°Sit Jain, What is this urgent matter you want to discuss with me?¡± Jain: ¡°There is a problem I came across when I was going through the document of Slave Trading, your Excellency¡± Den: ¡°What is this you speak of? (With narrowed eyes)¡± Jain: ¡±Your Excellency, the slaves which were sold twelve years before were high numbered compared to other years sir¡± Den:¡±What do you mean?¡± Jain:¡±Sir, The slaves that were sold to slave merchants were higher compared to now and the number exceeds around 500 sir¡± Den: ¡±Well that really is high and also the incident happened on those days, that is really something to worry about. Did you find the information of the slave traders, sellers and buyers?¡± Jain:¡±Well about that, the slave merchants are directly connected to Dark Guild and also belongs to Uslfar Kingdom. So acquiring information about them is next to impossible.¡± Den: ¡°Jain, I appointed you personally as the Head of Reinfield Merchant Guild but you say this now after twelve years and whats more is that not even worthy information.¡± Jain:¡±(flustered by the angriness of Den) Sorry my Excellency, but due to the war expedition and governing the Guild and other stuff I was unable to gather information and due to the long time it became harder to gather any more than this¡± Den: ¡±Excuses after excuses.

That f*cking Queen. Is this what she planned?" ---------------- At the rebels hut After Woden declared himself as the son of the previous king and queen, he told Helius, Nail and Tia not mention about it and left for bath since he didn¡¯t take bath for more than seven days. The bathroom was pool type and he started to ponder of the obtained information. Woden:[(in his thoughts) Well now mom. What kind of plan did you work out? Are you trying to build resistance force or planned some other thing. I just can¡¯t understand anymore. If you planned all these why didn¡¯t you escape from the fortress? You didn¡¯t even passed these information to me](suddenly two tub falling sound echoed in the room) Immediately Woden took fighting stance thinking that some enemy entered the room only to find two girls standing there covering the private parts in towel with the blushing when looking at the naked Woden. Tia:¡±(flustered) What are doing here at this hour and nakedly¡± Woden:¡±Well I¡¯m taking bath. And what are you people doing here. I¡¯m positive I told you guys that I¡¯m going to take bath right¡± Nail: ¡±Sorry I didn¡¯t except this. Well take your time we will come by later¡± Tia left the room pouting and Nail left while seeing him once again and smiled at him. Woden:¡±Ruined my thoughts. And what¡¯s with these girls. Whatever. I can ask about the details from helius. Let¡¯s get moving before some other people ruin my mood¡± After changing, Woden visited Helius to obtain more information Woden: ¡°Hello there. May I intrude you?¡± Helius:¡±Sure. More like I want have a long chat with you myself¡± Woden:¡±Is that so. Well, first I want to know what happened in the palace before my birth and what are the instructions given to you by my mother. Then I will answer your questions. Ok?¡± Helius: ¡°Surely or rather this is also one of the instructions given to me by Queen Maria in case I meet you. Alright to begin with King Grey Reinfield is a very powerful yet a kind king towards everybody and also a person who thrust everyone likewise. Well that habit also allowed other kingdom to have a friendly relationship with ours and even Demon Kingdom too trusted us. Well King Grey doesn¡¯t like to wage war against Demon Continent in the name of God but also this will cause a heavy loss to ourselves too. Den on the other hand even though he knows about this but pressured King Grey to wage war even though other kingdom liked to in peace¡± Support the creativity of authors by visiting the original site for this novel and more. Helius:¡±(preparing something to drink which indicated a long talk) Well Queen Maria who is not naive like King Grey first collected information about Den and his connection and what he after. You see, Queen Maria found out that Den and main High Noble family collaborated and aiming the throne. Queen Maria passed this information to King Grey many times but King refused saying that he trusts his brother and also some noble may be jealous towards the success of the Den becoming High Priest.¡± Helius: ¡±Well Queen Maria knew she could not change the King so she devised a long term plan when even the Kingdoms people started to spread bad rumors about the King which indicated the usurp of the Throne.¡± Helius: ¡°Well before saying the Queens plan, I would like to know what you know about the political regulations on other kingdoms¡± Woden: ¡°Well all I know is that these days Reinfield is not welcomed friendly on other Kingdoms and also each kingdom has a large influence towards their specialty guilds¡± Helius: ¡°Well that¡¯s true. But you doesn¡¯t know their inheritance policies it seems. Well I will tell you about it. The kingdom Reinfield, Jonar, Seage and Uslafr are ruled by their respective Royal Families where as the kingdom Tenri and Sumai operates in different way. To put simple their respective guild leaders are the ruler of the kingdom too. Well more than that the Tenri Kingdom was ruled by the Head of the Council of Mage and Sumai Kingdom is ruled by the Head of the Merchant Guild and there is no inheritance policy in there. Queen Maria who is from Tenri Academy is also one of most outstanding member of the Council of Mage which offered her to be the next head of the Council of Mage. But she refused it after she met King Grey and they respected her even more so. Do you know why?¡± Woden: ¡°Well for not being greedy for the power that is held by the Council of Mage right.¡± Helius: ¡°Well that too and also there is no rules in becoming Queen of both kingdoms and yet she didn¡¯t accepted and also helped them even after she became Queen of different country. Well I will say the plan devised by Queen Maria now: 1. Sell the well trusted Nobel families as slave and place them away from the kingdom and train them to be rebels in different location 2. Most trusted royal guards were replaced and send them to the rebels and create an army to take back the throne Well a problem occurred when the trusted Noble families said that they too will fight to death rather than being rebels and compromised that they will sell their children¡¯s and their young family members as slaves. At first we royal guards too objected if being relived from the post but Queen ordered us so that we will train the young ones and guide them properly in case they were unable to win Den and the other parties and also guide the Child of Queen too. That is you my Prince¡± Saying so Helius bowed to respect him Woden:¡±Well, don¡¯t Helius. Right now you are but a Bandit and Rebel Army Head and I¡¯m just a brat who just started to travel the world. But here is my question or doubt, how did she did these and why she didn¡¯t escape from the fortress and why you people didn¡¯t tried to help my mother or father and why such an elaborated plan?(he narrowed his eyes towards Helius)¡± Helius: (flinched for a second and started to wonder) [is he really a 12 year old child. I mean what kind of child can make a killing intent that is capable of even me to afraid and also make to kneel me with just words alone and also his understanding capability] Woden: ¡±Helius you have all the time to pounder in your own thoughts after our conversation ends. Please answer my question?¡± Helius:¡±Sorry. Well about that to being with first I will answer you how Queen achieved her objective without the kingdom noticing it. Since she has lot of influence on the Council of Mage and she asked her old connection from adventure to contact the Slave Traders from the Dark Guild directly from Uslafr itself. The Dark Guild from Uslafr follows a particular code i.e they will never reveal the information about their clients no matter what that is to say even the Head of Dark Guild cannot do that and also they do what they want for the client if the right amount is paid unless it doesn¡¯t break their code and other policies. So using lots of money from Council of Mage by selling her research rights and adventure days and from the trusted noble, she contacted many Slave Traders and arranged the transaction of young ones to different people mainly worthless or money greedy people and was later assassinated by us since we are the ones who selected these people. Later the Council of Mage helped us by sending few trusted teachers to train the young ones¡± Helius: (sips the drink and signs)¡°As for rescuing King and Queen we were able to rescue them from the fortress safely, my prince (smiled)¡± Woden:¡±(surprised to hear the news) What do you mean my mother was rescued?¡± Helius:¡±Well you will know when we see them, my prince. They were placed safely in a secured location. I will take you there now and I will also tell you about how we rescued them on the way¡± ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Author: Thank you for reading the chapter Chapter 8 – Reunion Author: Thanks for reading my work to all.

So what we did is placed ourselves in every fortress we knew around the Kingdom. On the day you were born, it seems queen did a forbidden magic right?¡± Woden:¡±Yes. That¡¯s how she was able to transfer me¡± Helius:¡±A problem occurred due to that. You see, when Queen Maria used the spell, there was a light that shined all over the fort and luckily few of our men were on the lookout. They suspected something and inflirated the fort and everybody in the fort are unconscious. So it was easy for us to locate the King and Queen and we rescued them. Not but them we were also able to find few nobles of our side and rescued them and hidden them. But we didn¡¯t find you.¡± Helius:¡±There was a huge uproar among Den and other nobles who opposed us because most of the men in the fort are either dead or unconscious. So Den and High Nobles decided to cause a fake death of Queen and a fake King to execute. They created some units to secretly search for the missing people. But that party too was disbanded when most of the people found in the fort died¡± Helius:¡±Even few nobles rescued by us died too. But those who were alive remained unconscious for more than five years. We halted to proceed our plans and from the help of the Tenri Kingdoms we were able to diagnose the problem and treated them¡± Woden:¡±What is the problem?¡± Helius:¡±Most of the prisoned people were very weak. They were unable to sustain their mana. When Queen used the forbidden spell there was some interference and it caused heavy disturbance in mana pool to every people in the fort. Those who had very good disposition were able to sustain their life and other are dead.¡± Woden:[(in his thoughts)is it something to do with my mana pool]¡±So why did they faked the death and the execution? Don¡¯t tell me so that they can get the throne¡± Helius:¡±Yep. You see, the throne can be given to the four High Families when there is no heir to the throne. Technically it should have gone to Den but high priest position can¡¯t be transferred to another unless he is dead. So there you have the answers for what and how.¡± Helius:¡±So now I have answered all your questions. Please answer mine. Where were you? Who trained you in both combat and magic? What have you gone through to have that kind of killing intent?¡± Woden:¡±I will keep my promise. The first two questions can be answered by mom. And the last question is you will eventually find out when we speak to my parents.¡± Helius:¡±Oi. You didn¡¯t answer my questions at all. And King thinks that you were dead. But Queen is reaching what occurred on that day even till now to find your safety¡± Woden:¡±Didn¡¯t I tell you. When we get to meet them every questions will be answered¡± Woden closed his eyes with a happiness that he is not alone anymore. Tia and Nail kept quite during the conversation and were kept a look out for any problem and animal that attack them while travelling. Helius was not contempt with the reply from Woden, so he was sulking but eventually he became happy as he imagined how happy the King and Queen will be when they know that their son is alive and well and strong. After a few day of travelling, Woden who was sleeping now was awakend by a sudden sound of tree falling from near the cart. Woden took jumped out from cart and took a fighting stance and he saw a man with a same feature as him with aged around 30s and a bit build up body with an axe on his hand. Helius got down normally and bowed down to the man before him and ¡°Good day my King¡±. Woden knew from those words that the man before him is his father. Grey: ¡±Good day Helius. So who is this lad in front of me taking a battle stance?¡± Helius:¡±My King, Please forgive his rudeness on my behalf and we have a very important matter to discuss in the presence of Queen too.¡± This story originates from a different website. Ensure the author gets the support they deserve by reading it there.Woden:¡±Oi old man who asked you beg for forgiveness for my behavior. And you fallen King I can be how rude I want to be. If you what it takes to make me bow show me with your might and not with words (taunted his father)¡± Grey unknowing that the boy in front of him was his son ¡±you got guts but no manners and don¡¯t taunt like that kid¡± furiously took a battle stance and started to emit killing intent. Woden on other hand was smiling[(in his thought) well so he got a good mind despite his fall on status. Now let¡¯s check his strength]. Helius, nail and tia were surprised by the turn of event and helius tried to interrupt but stopped when he saw Wodens smiling face and thought to himself [well is this kid trying some bonding that he missed all these years]. Woden approached very fast and took a leg swipe. Grey was surprised from the attack but dodged swiftly and throws the axe axis aiming at woden. But woden swiftly catches the axe and throws it aiming for Greys leg but before he could, greys approaches woden and punches him. Woden took the punch by slightingly moving backward to avoid full impact and was blow a bit back and he balanced himself ¡°Well old man you got power alright¡± Grey was astonished by the battle sense of woden when he avoided the full impact of the punch and felt a familiarity towards woden and stopped emitting the killing intent and ¡°Child who are you? Your battle sense and the unfazed expression from my killing intent awes me.¡± Woden:¡±Che. And here I thought we could have a bit fun.¡± Hearing the commotion from outside a woman, who looks same age as Grey, left the room she was in and hurriedly came and found the boy that was battling her husband. When she saw the boy tears flow down from her eyes and ran towards him and hugged him and ¡°at last you came . I waited for more years to meet you finally.¡± Seeing his wife¡¯s action Grey ¡±Woden. Are you woden¡± and rushed forward and hugged his wife and woden and tears flowed down from his face with a smile that showed from the a face that regained energy which lost all these years. After a teary and happy reunion everybody got into the house and wodens mother didn¡¯t let go of him for a while. After Maria calmed down everybody sat on chair. Woden:¡±Mom when helius told me that you guys regained conscious after five years why didn¡¯t you visit me in the forest?¡± Maria: ¡°Sorry woden. Your father was way down both physically and mentally and he only regained his old self a bit after two years. And he insisted on saying that you were dead and we must prepare to regain the throne. Since I too doubted your death because of the incident I started to research about what interfered and the situation on the Reinfield with other Kingdom became worse which stopped me from going to the forest house. I regret my decision even now but before I find proof of your living I can¡¯t risk the life of others by going there since my presence is very important here in Tenri.¡± Woden:¡± Well you should have at least asked some of your friends to reach out to me. What is done is done and it also helped me to improve a lot.¡± Grey: ¡°Forgive me and her son. It is because of my incompetence that led to this situation¡± Helius:¡±Now prince. Please answer my questions which I asked before.¡± Maria: ¡±What questions were they Helius?¡± Helius:¡±My Queen it is about the survival of prince. Because if somebody knows about him, we will be in danger.¡± Maria: ¡±Oh about that. You see helius, I have arranged a place so to keep him hidden and arranged a slave for him to take care until he becomes three and she will die after three years because of mana depletion¡± Woden:¡±As for my strength and other stuff¡± he started to explain about the life style he led on the forest, knowledge gained from his mother and books in the house and also the meeting with Tyron. Helius was astonished and he is unable to find a word to describe about woden. All he thought was Woden is genius and he also found the reason for the arrogance and courage and strength of woden form his explanation. After they had lunch, woden asked his mother about the phenomenon happened on the fort and she too was unable to find a concrete reason but just said ¡°May be your mana interrupted during the teleportation spell because of the sudden injection of the knowledge transfer spell.¡± Woden on that slept with his parent side and for the first time in his life he had a bright face while sleeping and slept without cursing anyone for the misfortune he had till now. ------------------------------ Author: Thanks for reading the chapter Notice of Dropping the Novel Author: Sorry everybody, my computer is beyond repair and my friend who lent me his PC for a couple of chapters is moving to another place.
