Gabriel woke up in small bed, he looked around but he was alone.
"Where am I" asked Gabriel confused. The last thing he remembered was reading the strange black book and then when he finally got to the last page, he passed out. Gabriel tried hard to remember what happened next but he couldn't. Suddenly he started to remember something, Gabriel was startled, as if memory's from a distannte paste that he couldn't remember came back, but the strange thing was that these memories contained somthing called "God's Mantra".
After calming down Gabriel started to recall that in the introduction book about Magi, that psychical training lost a meaning after one becomes a one star Master, after that one should start to meditate, to open the passages in his body. To achieve a better results magi used Mantras to meditate, the higher the grade of the mantra the more energy one can absorb and the higher the quality of the energy is.
"Could this be a Mantra to meditate" Gabriel knew that the people of powerful clans and organization started meditation even before reaching the Master level, to have better results. Only people of humble background started at the Master level when they were accepted in an academy.
Gabriel decided to give it a try, he sat down cross-legged and started meditating according to God's Mantra. Suddenly all the energy all around started rushing to Gabriel's body "What the hell all the channels in my body are opened, how is that possible? Is it because of the mantra or is the natural talent of this body?" Gabriel was astonished he felt like the energy here wasn't enough, like his body was and empty ocean and the energy here like a bucket of water.
In a another room, Sam was standing near the window and was staring at the moon with a grave expression. "How were we found out, was is Arnold again?" There days ago when they stopped Gabriel went to look around, and after a while Sam felt a strange and scary energy coming from the direction that he went. He rushed there and saw Gabriel in a pool of black, Sam took a healing pill and pushed it in Gabriel mouth. After that he took Gabriel and rushed back to the carriage and left and the fastest speed possible. Then he found a relatively big town. After checking in a inn and making sure that there was no hidden damage on Daniel, Sam relaxed a little. But three days latter Gabriel still didn't wake up. "There is no other way around, we will have to..." but before he could finish there was a loud BANG and two men in black burst into his room. Then they attacked at the same time, using daggers, one from the left and the other from the right.
Sam reached rapidly at his saber and attacked with an horizontal blow deflecting the two attackers, ever since he was poisoned his strength dropped to peak 3 stars Master from 1 star Magi Knight, these two assassin's where both peak 2 stars Masters, it would be tricky to finish both of them fast. "I have to move fast, young master Gabriel is in danger"
Meanwhile in Gabriel's room there was a body without a head. This assassin job was to capture Gabriel while the other two tied down Sam. When he got in the room and saw Gabriel cross-legged he made his move, but then Gabriel turned into a blur and his head explode.
"How strange, I don't feel nothing after killing someone for the first time ever" when the man made his move he seemed to move in slow motion in Gabriel's eyes, he got plenty of time to get up and deliver a punch. "There are two more fighting with Sam" Gabriel senses seemed to have improved dramatically.
Sam was in the middle of delivering a blow when suddenly the heads of the two men blew up, and a figure seemed to appear between them. Sam was astonished at this sudden turn of events he was in the middle of the attack and couldn't pull the saber back.
Gabriel looked at the incoming saber, then lifted his hand, and using only one finger, stopped the saber blow.
"Youn... You... Young Master Gabriel???" Sam seemed to have seen the most inconvincible thing in the whole world.
"We can talk latter, go and call Maria over then we leave." said Gabriel in a calm tone. Then he disappeared from Sam view. "There was one more hiding". Then Gabriel appeared outside the inn next to a man waiting in a carriage, he didn't notice the man at first becouse, the men didn't revel any killing intent, he didn't even had time to scream before Gabriel knocked him out. He lifted the man and went to the stables, where Sam was already prepering everything. When Maria saw Gabriel she said in a loud voice.
"Young Master you are ok, thank God, Master Sam after saying that we had to run didn't say anything else" Then she saw that Gabriel was dragging someone by a hand.
Gabriel threw the man in Sam direction and said "Tie him up and throw him in the back we will question him" Then he turned to Maria and said "Go inside the carriage and rest Maria, I will explain everything to you later" Maria was intimidated slightly when Gabriel looked at her but she still bowed and went in.
After tying the man and throwing him in the back Sam was preparing to sit on the driver's seat so that they could go, when Gabriel suddenly said.
"Wait, come here Sam"
Sam was confused, why was Gabriel not anxious to leave, there might be more enemies coming "Young Master is better if we go now" said Sam.
"I will not reapet myself come here" This time when Sam looked at Gabriel he was startled, he felt like he was a little bug in front of a giant, like the person in front of him could squeeze him with a finger, and his eyes that glowed with purple light seemed to be like the eyes of God staring at the whole world with disdain.
Suddenly Gabriel hand trembled and a purple glow appeared around it, then Gabriel made a move and delivered a palm strick in the middle of Sam chest.
Sam couldn't d react at all, he fell to his knees and started vomiting dark green blood.
"How is this possible" Sam was staring at Gabriel in disbelief, with one simple move he was saved from a poisen that even a 2 stars Magi Knight could do nothing.
"How far is the Imperial Capital" asked Gabriel.
Sam unconsciously bowed his head and said in a respectful tone "About two days if we don't stop Young Master"
"Good, we will talk when we get there, now let's go"
Somewhere else in a dark room a voice said
"The man we send didn't come back, they are probably all dead."
"It will be harder to get him in the capital"
"We will have to ask some old friends to help"
