20 Chapter 20: Divine Sign

They took the road and crossed the full ice. After half a day's walk, they had reached the frost forest. It was a large forest with a tree bluish by frost. In this forest there were some animals like frost as well. He looked like a sparrow but with a blue feather and a white belly. Prometheus was getting tired and he didn't feel the slightest sign of a divine source. He was desperate.

- Nicolas how long will it take us to find a source?

Nicolas did not answer and continued to walk. He too was beginning to lose hope. The last time when he found a divine source it was by chance, he was only lucky. Now he realized that to find a source, only luck counted. He even thought that a source might have appeared where he had been. But Nicolas did not let him get disappointed and took a deep breath.

- God will let us know Prometheus. I never said that finding a source was easy, only that it was possible.

On his side Brutus was lost in his thoughts. He imagined himself cooking a plump deer. Drool was coming out of his mouth. But after a while this drool froze, which brought Brutus back to reality.

- I'm hungry, we have to hunt!

Nicolas and Prometheus agreed with him. They had to have prayed with them for food supplies. There was not much left after two meals of Brutus. Nicolas stopped walking.

- You're right. We will set up camp and you Brutus during this time you will look for us to eat.

Brutus did not keep waiting and ran away into the forest. He looked like a child who had been played. Nicolas and Prometheus continued walking for 5 minutes, until they found a clear space to set up their campsite. After 20 minutes the tent was set up and Prometheus returned home. Prometheus was shivering, the cold wind from the ice mountain passed through the bearskin tent. His feet were frozen and he was beginning to lose all sensation on his face. However, he remained determined and began to do a manipulation exercise. Prometheus grabbed a piece of wood and started to levitate it. The stick was shaking a little and had trouble staying stable yet it was turning around on itself without stopping. This exercise was known to be one of the easiest. Yet Prometheus felt comfort and pride when he saw that he was succeeding in a mana manipulation exercise for the first time.

An hour later the spiritual energy of Prometheus was totally exhausted. He couldn't even levitate the stick anymore, he had a headache again. Prometheus got up with difficulty because he had used too much spiritual energy. Then he left the tent, in front of him he had Brutus. He had just returned from the hunt and his arrival at the camp was noisy. In these hands were 5 rabbits and a small plant that Prometheus had already seen. This flower was often used by Nicolas as a seasoning for food.

Not far from there two shadows were hiding in the dark.

- They still haven't found anything....

- Yes.

- It was a bad plan.

- No, it makes perfect sense that they don't find a divine source in a day. But be patient and we will be rewarded.

- But when?

- When God decides.

In the middle of the night, Prometheus woke up, he had just felt the flow of divine mana. These flows all converged on the same place. Prometheus grabbed his sword and woke Brutus and Nicholas.

- Get up! Get up! I think I found a source.

Nicholas looked at Prometheus with a serious look. "You're sure about that." Then he closed his eyes and activated his mana brain. A frosty blue aura forms around his body. Then he opened his eyes again. "You're right, Prometheus. "Nicolas got up and pressed the pat." Brutus hurry up! ». Brutus still had his eyes half closed, he had trouble waking up. Nicolas struck him hard on the skull. "Hurry up. »

A few minutes later Brutus Nicholas and Prometheus came out of the tent. They were dressed and began to run following the flow of divine mana.

Ragnar and Rolo, who continued to observe them from afar, were surprised.

- They're moving, Rolo's watching! I told you, God put them in our way so we could follow them.

- Shut up, Ragnar, they'll hear you.

- quickly you have to follow them.

Ragnar and Rolo started running. Suddenly their bodies were covered with an electric blue aura. Their speed increased. They were moving so fast that their bodies had become almost invisible.

After running 2 kilometers in two minutes, Prometheus was out of breath. But in front of him was a small pond. A white vapour was emanating from the pond, the water seemed hot. The water was bluish and covered with a fine aura of frost. Nicolas looked at the pond with joy "It is a divine source, we found it! ». Brutus also stopped running but he didn't seem to be concentrating on the pond... "you don't hear any Patty noises..... " But before he had time to finish his Phrase, two shadows came out of the forest.

Brutus tried to put himself in a fighting position but he didn't have time. A green flask exploded at the foot of Brutus. Nicolas turned around and opened his eyes wide. "A FLASK OF ACID. ". But too late. The flask exploded on Brutus' feet. His legs were touched. His skin was corroding his bones were emaciated, Brutus fell to the ground he shouted.

- AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Brutus had just lost his legs. He almost died. Rolo flew like a lightning towards Brutus with a broad smile. "Death awaits you muscle ball." Nicolas didn't take the time to think and drew two Rolo green arrows. Rolo backed away to avoid the arrows, he stood proudly in front of Brutus' body with a broad smile. Nicolas leaned over and pulled an arrow again towards Rolo. When suddenly Ragnar came out of the shadows and rushed towards Prometheus. He had a poisoned dagger in his right hand.
