80.

The next day Leo and company dragged Rosalie to a lake near the mansion.

Rosalie was nervous when she was suddenly asked to use her ability infront of this many people. However she was close with Dalia and Arthur so she eventually came out of her shell and used her ability.

"Hey, I thought no abilities were allowed when we are having fun."

Dalia suddenly asked.

Leo shrugged, "We aren't using ours, otherwise the lake would be emptied out."

Makes sense.

Rosalie used her water ability to create a net and confined several fish to an area. With a 100 percent to catch one, the three of them competed on who could get more.

In the end Leo won.

"Hey, you cheated!"

Dalia glared at Leo.

"It's your fault to not know how to hook a fish."

"Normal people use bait to catch fish, not swing the fishing pole and pierce a hole through it before reeling in."

"In any case, I won."

Hmph!

Dalia scoffed. Rosalie was completely at ease and giggled when she saw this.

The three of them looked over and smiled as well when they saw her laugh.

"Rosalie, come on. Let's catch some more, I want double their catch!"

Dalia said pulled Rosalie to the lake.

Arthur was looking at Dalia and Rosalie with a content smile and suddenly said to Leo, "Thanks."

Leo was surprised and asked, "For what?"

"For helping Rosalie. It was mine and my family's decision to not let her come in contact with other Extraordinaries. We thought this was best for her."

"But thinking back, it was stupid. She was never meant to be ordinary. It's better for her to be true to herself than constrain her powers for the sake of living normally."

Leo smiled and said, "Extraordinaries need to train their powers as much as possible otherwise it will bottle up inside them and affect their emotions. When emotionally unstable this power might cause irrecoverable damage."

"Rosalie is kind by nature. Her power is a testament to that. It's better for her to know that she isn't alone, and she can act freely infront of them."

"Right now she is just a normal eleven year old kid."

Leo and Arthur looked over and saw Rosalie smiling happily while she helped Dalia catch more fish.

When it was lunch time they got back and Dalia happily showed off her catch to Lex and Catherine.

Rosalie was nervous to meet Lex and Catherine, however both of them simply rubbed her tiny head and eased her worries.

A few more days went by.

Leo bid farewell to Arthur and the rest. He only had some spare clothes and some cash.

"Alright, where should I go first?"

Leo checked a map Lex had prepared for him. It was marked in several places. These were locations of Lex's business. If he was ever in need of help he could go there and ask.

Settling on a destination Leo started to walk. Each step he took carried him several tens of meters.

Feeling the wind brush past his face Leo felt extremely at ease. He felt free.

...

Time passed by.

Leo travelled through the country. Sometimes he rode a horse, other times he ran. With the badge from Lex it was very easy for him to find lodging in settlements.

With each passing day his realm of mind was further refined. His sword intent was also further refined, though his domain's range didn't increase it's power showed a steady increment.

Right now Leo was walking through a port. He looked insignificant considering the number of people walking past him.

He searched through the crowd trying to find someone. After a while he spotted who he was looking for and took a beeline towards them.

"It's been a while guys!"

He grinned and waved at a group of people.

The group was of course his friends. Sam, Dalia, Arthur, Lex, Catherine and Edward was there.

All of them smiled when they saw him. Dalia stepped out and took a good look at Leo.

"You grew your hair."

Leo shot a look at her and smiled, "Yeah."

Before, he had short hair, now his hair was long and roughed combed to the side. With his piercing blue eyes and slightly tanned skin it gave him a particular grace. Several ladies were sneaking looks at him from time to time.

Sam patted Leo's back and handed him a ticket, "Here is what I promised."

Leo took it and thanked him.

"You didn't even give us a chance to throw a farewell party."

Dalia grumbled.

Leo said, "It's fine. It's the people that matters."

Edward held out his hand and shook Leo's, "Thank you for helping us before."

Leo waved his hand, "I just did my job."

"Hey, you didn't notice someone."

Suddenly Catherine spoke and stepped aside. Someone peeked out from behind her.

Leo smiled, "I knew Rosalie was there."

Though they only knew each other for a few days, Rosalie kind of got close to Leo.

Leo rubbed her head and said, "Thanks for coming to send me off."

Um.

Rosalie hummed.

Huuuuu..

Suddenly the ship's horn blew loudly. Leo looked at everyone one more time and said sincerely, "Thank you for taking care of me."

Everyone was reluctant to part with him.

"Will we ever see again?"

Arthur asked. Everyone had the same question in their minds.

Leo smiled, "Technology is developing very rapidly, transportation will be become much more easier in the future. I am sure we will see each other. If you ever come to my country you know where to look."

Everyone nodded.

Leo said his farewell and boarded the ship.

He waved to them from the ship. Soon the ship started to move and they became a shadow in the distance.

Leo looked at the vast ocean, he felt excited when he thought of seeing his friends again. The face of a particular person flashed in his mind and he couldn't help but smile.

Shinobu...
