I wake up early and continue with my routine to go to the library and do my regular physical practices in the morning. when I returned home I found my Mom and Sister in the kitchen I see them and I know that people will show up to inquiry about servant Lau.
"Mom , Sister we should live ours lives if people show here asking , we will say that we don't know anything"
They nod with their heads, and life moves forward. I continue my morning routine everyday for one weeks my stast have been increasing under the training.

My biggest surprise was one morning when Travis voice alert me in my head.
" The intruder that not pay rent has create a new page"
I looked in my soul and found a page with a body techinque: Metal body , the description was the combination of the breathing technique with a mix of herbal baths and circulation of energy to the skin first and later to organs, this techique is in the mortal realm , but can be upgrade over the time.
I have been hunting every day and fishing in the shore with the pocket shade technique, that allow me to get small fishes for my family and I killed one rabit and a wild animal similar to a tapir, later I discovered that the meat was very beneficiary to low cultivators. I selled a part for 8 silvers; with the money I started. buying the herbs for the baths that were relatively cheap. I build in the back of house a big bucket where I could take the baths , Uncle Towen help me with the wood and was very surprised that I could hunt. He promised that we would keep the secret.
"Uncle Towen, you don't have to fight for the food anymore for us, besides in the long run they will discover one day that I hunt in the forest, but for now let's keep this between us"
at mightnight I decide to take the bath I put the herb in the hot water and start breathing and relaxing at the same time I could feel that some type of electricity started enter like needles in my skin I clench my teets and inside I was cursing the book , nobody put that pain will be involve in the bath I continue breathing and lose control of the time, until travis wake me up.
"Aran congratulations you should be in the Bone dense level 1
strenght. 3.5
agility 2.5
stamina 3.2
detrexity 2.9
metap body initial stage : skin protection layer increased"
I was happy that I could become a cultivator , at the same time.
"Who was the person that create that this tattered book"
The best time to test for attitude is at the age of 5 years where you go to a ceremony of spirituality awaken and potential, the old Aran was catalogued as a bad seed with limited potential, making that all the family pushed him to a side.
In this world exists two roads to become strong and at the same time they can mix
The first way is to become a Mage that start with elemental 10 levels , follow with novice of magic 5 levels, aprentice of magic 5 levels, and later the true magic user, initial mage, intermedio mage , and advance mage, the next range is the range of the powerhouses grandmaster star mage, grandmaster eon mage and grandmaster primordial magic bloodline. The kingdom higher user of magic alive in this days is a grandmaster star mage at the initial level and was in the capital.
The other path is Knighthood that start with 5 levels of tempering or bone dense, next levels are esquire level Bronze ( 3 levels), esquire level Silver (3 levels), esquire level gold (3 levels), true knights start from the next levels initiate kight, intermedio knight and advance knight, powerhouses are the next levels King of knights , Emperor of knights and Master Emperor Knights. The higest powerhouse in the kingdom is one at King of knights level 2 located in the capital.
Both paths have pro and cons ,mages lack strong body to fight and knights lack long range attacks , making many people develop both paths at the same time , now always one path will be stronger than the other making the user be place as a mage or knight.
I went to bed and morning arrived with somebody knocking in the door very hard. I went downstairs and I saw Elien and Aria opening the door.
"Good morning Lord , what can I do for you?"
Elien make a salute with dress , Aria was scared , but still step forward.
" Good morning father "
Kurt Longheart never salute me or looked me , like I was air, he enter the house with 2 servants and start talking like a big man.
" Elien , I paid already a magic academy to Aria in the capital with accommodation include for you and her, you will be parting tomorrow"
Elien with a tone of panic in her voice
"My lord I have two children , who will take care of my other son in this house in my absence?"
" I don't care , the house will be ocupaid for servants of manager Kai tomorrow, your son will have to leave the house and the clan"
Aria was terrified and in Elien eyes tears falling can be seen.
" Brother don't have a place to stay , can he come with us?"
" No, he is not part of this family anymore"
I step forward
"Mother don't worry I will be ok and Aria you should take the opportunity to go to the academy and become strong , you should take mom with you from this messy nest. I am ok with the decision of the Longheart clan, tomorrow I will leave this house and the clan."
I walk back to my room like nothing happened. I started to packing ap few things in my room taking the pelts of my hunting games. when I feel the voice of my mom
" Son ....Mom have failed to you "
I opened the door smilling.
" Mom come in ....sit in this chair....Mom I want to tell you that I am graceful for have a mother like you that always sacrifice for my sister and me. Abandon the clan is a blessing ....you know that I am a hunter, meaning that I will not die for starvation, take this money (3 bronze coins and some quartz)and the short sword, because I doubt that this family will provide adequate for you and my sister...I think that behind all this is the 1 wife doings"
" You are right son, promise me that you will write to us and I am still worry ...where you will live ?"
" I will go the town to see , who is renting a room ...don't worry"
she hug me hard and kissed my head many times...before leaving
" you have growth my son"
I could hear her steps....leaving is a good opportunity because nobody will think in us and the absence of servant Lau.
I took the pelts and decide to sell it the general store...I get 8 silver and 6 bronze coins....I decide to go to the blacksmith store that I bought the tomahawk and the knife and I saw the same beatiful read head girl in the counter.
" Good Afternoon, I am looking for a decent place to rent a room?"
" Little brother good afternoon....I know a
place but can be a little expensive for you"
" How, much ?....and what conditions the place offers because expensive means good conditions of living too"
" The price is a bronze coin a month and a daily diner meal include, you need to pay 3 months in advance , that is why can be to expensive for you"
" Could you tell me where is the place and the landlord"
" The place is here and I will be the person that you will be dealing....my name is Berent"
" well Berent I would like to see the room..my name is Aran"
She was thinking for a moment , and quicky started waking to the side of the counter until she went outside and we walk in the side of the store were a lateral door was push and she show me a single room wood construction.
" you will have protection here , because nobody comes here"
I could here the noise in the forge from here, but the place was good and I need a safe place...she show me the bath in the room that was a big bucket and two small buckets one for water and the other for feces.
I decide to take the place I pay her 3 mothns in advance when I hear a strong voice from a middle age burly man.
" Berent, what are you doing here?"
" Father I just rent to the little brother the room...he paid the 3 months advance"
"Ok ..welcome my name is Vulcan"
" Nice to meet you Master Vulcan..."
He just moved his hands and go back to the forge...i close the deal with Berent and returned home.
Elien and Aria were in the kitchen I told them that I have a place to sleep already and I gave 5 silver coins more to Elien for expenses...we stayed late talking and encouraging Aria about the opportunity that she has now..I can see her sad eyes ....I pad her in the head and left to the back of the yard.I decide to take a bath of herbs for cultivation and closing my eyes my mind was submerge in the breathing technique and the energy in my body...when I finished I went to my room and decide to sleep...
"Travis wake me up at the first lights"
