After a few minutes of exitement of their reunion, both the beasts calmed down and were sitting next to Alan and his group like a harmless domestic kitten's. Except, they were as big or even bigger than a war horse.
Alan explained their history and the promise he made to the little blacky to take her along with him on his future journey.
The King and the Queen, who had a sliver of doubt about Alan's capabilities to converse with the beasts vanished that day.
"You had grown so much blacky. I was amazed by the aura you have." Alan was found saying to the beast. In return the purring it made were simply unbelievable to the King, his family members and Daisy.
They were never aware that even a beast could act with such affection.
Alan chuckled. " Is it, don't worry it's also a type of training to make us strong, girl."
Again when the purring stopped, Alan shook his head with disbelief and turned towards Harry. " Master Harry, she wants the restriction bracelet. She is telling that, she also want to be as strong as me." Alan fondly scratched the beasts chin.
What? Restriction bracelets? King asked in shock and then turnes towards Harry, who grinned sheepishly scratching his head, acting like a kid caught while stealing a candy.
"Ah... Charlie, I might have forgotten to tell you this.... He then looked around others with an apologetic smile. " Actually my disciples are training with the most powerful Mana restriction tool available in the kingdom."
What....!!! Almost all the others, except Lilly and Irene exclaimed. The King even stood up in shock.
"Are you out of your mind Harry!!!? It will kill a person if he is wearing that thing for more than a few days. Even we get those thing off, of the criminals hands after a couple of days. How frequently are they taking it off? Twelve hours, once a day or every alternative day?
Harry was quite for a long time, not meeting the King's gaze. " Answer me you idiot. Don't tell me you are making them wear it for more than two days on a stretch?"
Harry turned towards his disciples with an embarrassed look and asked. " Have you removed it?"
All six of them shook their head and shrugged their shoulders in a nonchalant way.
Harry then turned his head towards the King. He had a proud and a devilish smile on his face. " Charlie, they are wearing it since the day they put it for the first time. Since.... more than two and a half year ago." Harry thought for a couple of seconds and announced.
The King sat back as if an invisible hand forcing him to sit back down. He then turned towards the six of them for the confirmation, when they nodes affirmatively. Charles let out a long and loud sighed.
"I thought he was the craziest person, He was pointing towards Harry. But you six are the craziest."
Harry burst out laughing at Kings comments and the six men smiled helplessly.
"Uncle Harry, do you have a spare bracelet. I want to try once. Me too master Harry." Daniel and Rodrick requested. Please.... They started pestering Harry.
Harry took out two bracelets and gave it to each of them. These are not as powerful as the others. But still it will reduce your mana reserve and strength by 80 percent.
Both of them smiled widely and put it on eagerly. Then the smile on their face vanished and they looked at Harry and others in surprise. They tried to walk but, it took a huge toll on their energy reserve. They started to pant after taking only a dozen steps.
How.... How could you guys wear it all the time. I am already feeling exhausted. Daniel started to pant heavily and removed his bracelet. Once it fell down, he let out an audible sigh and sat down in exhaustion.
Rodrick on the other hand was trying to do some stretching and after a few minutes he also took it off. "Phew, it's really taxing on the mana pool." He wiped the sweat on his sleeves.
"If you guys are this powerful with a restriction bracelet, then how powerful are you without one?", The Queen wondered out loud.
"Do you want to know Maaya?" Harry asked with a devilish grin.
"Yes....." Almost everyone said at once. Surprised, Harry looked around and found eager faces looking at him with expectation.
"Ok then, we will make them take that off today. Anyway its about time to end the training." Harry said. Then he suddendly put his finger to his chin in a thoughtful gesture and turned to King Charles, " I forgot to tell you all that, Alan is wearing two of those restriction bracelets."
The look he got from them was priceless. He was completely satisfied and had a proud expression on his face for letting the news out in such a dramatic way.
He started to walk to the opposite side. After walking for almost a hundred steps, he stopped and turned around. " Let me take out my restriction band first." After that, he started removing two black rings from his finger and a thin bracelet.
The Aura around him suddenly skyrocketed and made the ladies shiver visibly. They looked at him in awe!!!
Within a few seconds he started to retract his aura and after a few seconds his aura was under his control. His disciples were impressed by the improvement in his aura.
"Now Ben come here. Alan, put a shield around all of them." Harry pointed towards the King's family, Daisy and even Lilly and Irene.
"Wait? Alan can use the Shield magic?" King Charles asked in shock! Not only the king everyone else except Harry and the other five were in shock, as Alan had never used it infront of others.
Shrugging Alan waved his hand and a translucent dome formed around everyone making their jaw drop to their chest.
Ben went next to Harry and tried to open the latch of the bracelet. "Wait lad, it's better to take a few steps further away."
Ben walked a few more steps behind Harry after nodding his head. When he opened the clasp of the bracelet and let it fall down, the branches of the trees started to sway and fall from the energy that exploaded from Ben. His face was having a look of pure delight and after a couple of breaths, he retreated his aura to almost non existence.
"Such a hold over his energy. Unbelievable. Truely unbelievable." King was shocked and so were the others.
