"Hey Lucas you hungry?" Mark Draper a youth of 14 years Looked at the youth infront him, a tall 175cm long handsome blonde haired boy wearing a black tight fitted heath geared shirt and a kimono tucked to his waist and white trousers. This year Lucas is 12 years old but his tall and powerful body makes look like a 17-18 years old youth, in the past 6 years what he has achieved is nothing short of remarkable both his warrior and mage level is level 6, thanks to his higher mental aptitude he breezed through the ranks of mages and thanks to his spear training coupled with energy accumulation technique he achieved wonders in 6 short years he's known Nr1 genius in the family both past and now.
Lucas looked at the 2 boys infront him Mark and Ryan both are his cousins and smiled. Lucas nowadays always have coin in his hand that he tosses up and down, "yeah I've just become a level 6 mage let's go and celebrate I wanna visits the new restaurant in klemmer street" "I've heard rumors that a fire attributed saint that loves cocking opened it for his pleasure" Ryan said " but it's pity that not just anyone can eat his food" Lucas sighed and said. "That's why we came to you Lucas the nr1 genius in he imperial capital we came to hug your enormous thigh, I'll bet my left nut that they would give you face and serve one or two plates and after that you can share it with us" Mark said and stood there as he was some sort of mathematician who solved an hard earned math quiz. Lucas couldn't help a laugh these guys has been bothering him sen he was 8 years old they are really to odd balls but they are honest and loyal and most of all they don't stand on ceremony infront him. " Alright let's go to Adolfs restaurant"
"Best food I've had in a long time" Ryan claimed "indeed no doubt about that, you two I won't be available for the foreseeable future I'll be going to the tropical mountain range to train " Lucas said. " just come back in one peace we'd still need your big tigh to hug in the future" Mark patted Lucas shoulder and said. "Haha yeah I don't plan on dying there I'll still have a shit ton of things to do and accomplish" after that Lucas went to his parents courtyard, his father gave him an armor and the newly forged Spear that Lucas has requested, a spear forged with lightning attributed materials a weapon best suited for Lucas to grow with.
" Be careful son my best advice I can give is to never take unnecessary risk if you can avoid it, now go" Lucas could see how worried his parents were but they still let him go so that he can go and become stronger, every powerhouse had left behind a trail of corpses, this is the path he had chosen. After Lucas left a shadow came forth and bowed deeply to the couple, "Milinkaar keep your distance Lucas has a strong soul and might be able to sense you, unless his life is hanging a thin thread DO NOT INTERFERE" "Yes sir I will not let anything happen to the young master" And the the shadow left just as silently he came. "I trust Lucas but I don't trust the world, as his parents the least we could do is protect him in the early stage of his journey" Adrian said
When Lucas arrived in the foot of the mountain range he took a deep breath and went in, his Edict of destruction requires constant battle and killing to get a deeper understanding of its mysteries so this is the best place to train and hone is battle prowess. After a while of walking he sensed a spider that was about to launch an sneak attack he sidestepped away from the attack and got a good look of the attacker it was a 5th level magical beast after that he swung his spear and thrusted it, in the blink of an eye he had already penetrated the head of the spider he didn't bother to take the magicite core he came here train not to earn wealth he has enough of it at home. And just like that 3 weeks went by Lucas at the beginning was little clumsy but as time went on he became more proficient his battle sense continued to improve in an alarming rate, he killed several 6th level magical beast and two 7th level magical beast, in the daytime he fights and the nighttime he cultivates. After 4 months he met his first crisis, Lucas was standing there his arm bloody but his only focus was on the shadow Jaguar infront him an 8th level magical beast 'He's fast very fast I can't seem to keep up with him, luckily his attack is not as good as his speed otherwise I would be done for' Lucas instantly thought. Lucas took a defensive stance and at the same time he charged lightning from his body instantly chanting the 6th level magic spell thunderstorm descent, 'this should slow him down a bit till I get a good chance to finish him off.
As time went by Lucas felt warm current flow through his body at that moment he knew that he had broken through to the 7th level warrior, at that moment he thrust his spear after he had slowed the beast down a bit, Lucas penetrated the beasts skull through and through. Lucas instantly left the battle place and went to a remote place he heal up, he was not in a condition fight multiple monsters, the monsters would gather because of the battle and scent of blood.
After 6 hours of healing and stabilizing his 7th level strength, 'I've broken through to the 7th level senior mage?' He was euphoric "indeed in life and death battles can you get the most gains. Another six months went by and Lucas has firmly stabilized his breakthrough and familiarized himself with the level and learned 7th level thunder spell 'Lightning walk' a speed oriented magic spell, with this spell uplifting his speed his spear became even more deadly he killed three more 8th level magical beast. " pity there's none magic spells for Edict of destruction" Lucas sighed. Lucas is 13years of age now towering 182cm all his training and fighting made his body more chiseled and lost some of his baby fat. "My biggest gain in this mountain range is that I finally found my own way to the Edict of destruction, I finally understood what true destruction is, its to disintegrate all matter from inside out.
