The One-Man Army (4)

After Admir and Mephisto left the Sunhaven Orphanage, Rowan then afterwards returned few minutes after they left..

He then asked Kenta where his old-man was.

Rowan returned to Sunhaven Orphanage after pranking townsfolk. He then enters the room yelling "Old-Man!" because he wants to send his goodbyes before Admir leave.

"Old-man? Hey old-man! Where are you? 

'Where's old-man and why is he not answering? Is he annoyed because of what I did earlier? Wait, did he left already?!'

Rowan continued to yell for "Old-Man", but Admir didn't answer because he left already, Kenta woke up from a nap because Rowan was shouting too loud then answered him.

"Father already left Rowan! And stop shouting, it's too loud!"

'What? So old-man really leave already? Damn, he didn't even wait for me to come back home and say goodbye to him'

"He left already! That damn geezer!"

Rowan grumbled while he was extremely upset.

"Calm down Rowan! He said something before he left.. He said that you should check your explosives."

'My explosives..?'

"Do you know why he said that?"

Rowan asked with a serious looks in his face, he knew Admir left something important for him..

"Nope! He just told me to tell you to check your explosives, now fuck off!"

"Seriously? You're a warfreak when you face me, but when it comes to other people, you're a scaredy cat?"

"Shut up!"

"Lol Scared Cat"

After Rowan teased Kenta for a while, he then checked his explosives down the basement, he checked and checked, then finally found a letter on an explosive that is located on a corner where Admir entered in a deminsional door.

It's too dark and Rowan cannot read anything so he used his ability "???'s Vision", he then saw a letter says.

"Hey Rowan, If you are reading this, I'm probably already off with Mephisto 3 days away from Ronterra, Mephisto will use his teleportation magic later.. You might be wondering why we didn't wait for you and why I gave you this letter, after leaving, you might be confused because this is not me whom you normally know, but in case you're reading this, it might be too late for me. So, I want you to know that I'm grateful with you and Kenta, I hope you take care of other kids and I hope you stop your pranks. -Your Father, Admir"

'Huh? Why did old man left me with this emotional letter? I don't understand, and it's stoo late for him? Why? Is he going to die?'

Rowan mumbled while he was in a state of confusion and worry. 

'No no, old man won't die of course, he's with a powerful mage and he's a former High-Holy Knight, so the odds of him dying are probably zero.'

'Old man might be talking about that it's too late for him to communicate with us for the next 3 weeks or more. Well, okay?'

'But is this really it? Is there nothing else besides this message? And he told me to stop pranking people? God, whatever I won't do as he says, but anyways I'll go inspect this letter to see if there's a hidden message behind this..'

Rowan used the skill "???'s Appraisal" and found an ancient text who seems to be a chant or something.

'What's this? A chant? Why is it on an unknown language? Perhaps, an ancient language?'

'Well, come to think of it, Admir has been forcing me and Kenta to study ancient languages saying that it will be helpful and beneficial for us if we decide to be an adventurer.'

Rowan while saying this had a little flashback of him with Admir.

'But I didn't study that time because I already had a skill that I can use in case I encounter an Ancient Language.'

Rowan then used the skill "???" (The skill will be revealed in the later chapters).

'Wha..! It really is a chant! Wait... where do I use this chant? Well, I'll trying chanting it here to try if something will happen...'

Rowan proceeds to chant the Ancient spell for a couple of times because he failed 2nd times... then finally, he succeeded on chanting the text that is in Admir's letter..

The dimensional door then opened up in front of Rowan. (It was the same dimensional door where Admir entered before)

'What..! A door? What?! It hasn't been here before..! I've been walking in and out inside this basement but never one time I saw a door like this? And what is this? Why can't I see inside?'

'Is it because of the chant admir left me? What??'

While Rowan was opening the dimensional door that Mephisto and Admir installed, Admir sensed that Rowan opened the dimensional door and was surprised that Rowan opened it up immediately.

'What...! Rowan opened the dimensional door this quick? '

'Well, Rowan. Goodluck finding the sword style and martial arts that suits you, I hope you use it well.'

Admir mumbled while he was in a horse smiling proudly.

"What are you smiling up for Admir?"

"Ah..! Nothing.. I'm just glad that you and I finally had a journey after so many years..."

"You're being too soft these days Admir, it is not like you... you've changed Admir"

Admir was surprised by what Mephisto said to him, he then smiled and said.

"Oh, really? Haha, I guess 16 years of life without a fight can really change a person huh?"

"I'm glad to see you this way Admir, I hope this doesn't change.."

***

After Mephisto and Admir in the outskirts of Ronterra Kingdom, someone saw them leaving with their horses and reported it to Rigurd.

"Are you sure you saw The Archmage and The One-Man Army on Ronterra's outskirts?"

"Yes, your highness."

Rigurd grimly smiled knowing that he finally found The Archmage and found out that The One-Man Army finally got out of the city...

'Admir..! HAHAHAHA~ You finall came out of your own "little orphanage" huh? I can finally kill you..!'

'You shouldn't have got out of the city Admir! Now, I can kill you freely without the townspeople you being massacred! Prepare to die Admir~'
