"Umm, what's this for?"

"Well, some things here little kids better not seeing."

"But you're also a little--"

"Let's go. Don't take the cloth off until I say so."

"Okay."

Arthur along with the girl he saved from the slave traders begin to distance from their current position with a cloth covering the girl's eyes, just in case she wanders off and see something bad.

Arthur takes it off as the girl can see his face. Arthur smiled as he waved and bid farewell. Though a little hand grabs his ragged shirt and seeing it he looks at her as she got a scared expression indicating that she doesn't like to be alone. Arthur asked her,

"Isn't elves safe in this area?"

"Um, my parents said that kids will get eaten by hounds or tree golems."

"Ah... Okay... Well, how long would it take to get where you live from here?"

"I- I don't know."

"Uh... *sigh* Just wait here. I'll gather some supplies for us. I hope the trip won't be too long."

"Okay."

Arthur proceeds to go back to the carriage and begin to search. After he found what he needs, he checks his bag and goes back to where the little girl was.

'I only hope that the elves have something that can take me back to the Human Kingdom.' Arthur thought as he looks at the little girl who plays with the beautiful butterfly and some fireflies around her.

Walking towards the little girl, Arthur gives something to her that resembles clothes.

"Here, I found these clothes inside the carriage and assume these are yours. Wear these cloaks too over them as it might be cold."

"Thank you."

"Well, Let's get you back home then." Arthur said as he smiled at her.

Oliver who's now not wearing a blindfold was at Beast Glades training as yesterday he creatively levitates in the air. It was only possible because of the enlightenment he got from the 'Portal'. Using the Mana as the energy, he Percept and imagine that his feet have some sort of Zero Gravity Boots.

The effect was great since he can walk in the air that looks so cool if somebody has seen him, but this effect consumes greater mana. So after learning that he began to hone it as he creates something that'll enlighten him.

When Oliver learned that it consumed all of his mana faster that he only levitates for 7 seconds, he began to manipulate the mana where his perception can only reach. With this manipulation, he can never run out of mana even if he was Low Ranked Core. Even the Mana in the atmosphere have low output, with his eyes that can see the detail more clearly, all he needed was it's important and manipulating it then leave the other.

Oliver also noticed that his Mana Core was diluted with something that has a low probability of crippling every Mage living in this world. It was so low that it can't be noticed since it depended on every user. To Oliver that can see it began to remove it as he levitated above the ground in meters.

Oliver also trains something by using the Space and compressing it to what his limit can do. He also trains his heal-like ability little by little, like Orihime Inoue from bleach using Mana as energy. In all this multitasking training, he temporarily paused his physical training as he reached 13 in str, con, and dex.

Oliver trained this every day slowly as he doesn't want something to happen by pushing his body over the limit. Sure he will train progress will faster but it'll damage his soul and body. Even if his soul attribute was hidden, because of his system, it strengthens along with every attribute.

Oliver plans to do this every day and after his body is adapted, he can add other training little by little.

In these months Oliver was lying down in a grassy plain where he's training, he received some messages that came from Arthur telling him he was okay and alive. He smiled at this as Arthur may be confused why he was not at Alice and Reynolds.

Oliver spoke slowly to himself "I'm glad you're well, brother."

After that Oliver continued to train after the voice was gone, he levitate's in the same height used before. In these months he encountered some little problems where he got to hide and move from his previous location since adventurers hunt Mana Beast.

'*sigh* I've got a long way to go. Now ow that I know he is safe, I can train to the degree that I am a fail-safe.' Oliver thought as he goes back to his lotus form to train again.

"Um, who's that last little boy, Art?"

"Hmm... Oh, that? He's my brother. I didn't know why he is not with Mom and Dad but I'm glad he's still the same before, haha." Arthur answered while he wipes his tears with a smile.

"Huh? why is that?"

"He is lazy." Arthur said as he looks at the Old Elve signifying he is ready.

In those past months, Arthur and Tessia have been friends as they travelled and reach the Elven Kingdom that makes Arthur not being able to go back home as Tessia used the portal that can't be activated again.

With that Arthur was convinced to stay and met Tessia's Grandfather. He got tested to see if what Arthur said when he was asked was true. For a child that was less than 5 years old, he can't be that good at fighting unless it was an unexceptional talent.

His name is Virion Eralith, who was a hero who defended the Elven Kingdom between the war of Humans, and the former king.

Arthur's decision was not bad as he might die if he can't control his 'Beast's Will'. He was offered that Virion will be his Teacher since it is his first time seen a young mage Awakening and have Beast Will on top of that.

"Then we'll start tomorrow." Virion said as he continues "By the way, did your brother awakened the same as you?"

"Oliver? He was delayed months but he is lazy and has some problems-- he was annoying too and lazy." Arthur said as his facial expression changed slightly.

"Yeah, I noticed. We'll let's get going, shall we?" Vision said as he puts on a smile while standing up and looking at the Old Elve Woman who's expression was normal.

Though it is but with Virion's strength he catches a glimpse at her face and decided to leave it for later.
