"Separation " °•○●
Gan Villa..
As Ren ran with all his might, he was happy as if he had encountered a great treasure that had fallen from heaven. He didn't even care about the sickness in his chest and his physical incapacity. Thanks to the goddess he had just met, his belief that he would become a great sorcerer had increased.
He whistled past his house and ran straight to the largest of the warehouses.
In the Gan Villa, the warehouses don't all stay in one place. On the contrary, they are all scattered in different places. With many years of experience, they were aware that in the event of theft or natural disaster, smaller and more manageable warehouses are safer.
The main warehouse building, one of the largest warehouses, was located very close to the clan's main mansion. Ren ran to this warehouse and entered the door of the building that was ten meters high and hundred meters wide. Although he couldn't see his mother immediately, it wasn't difficult to search for his mother among the numerous employees around. In general, load carriers wear white and gray clothes. It is one of the clan's established rules so that they aren't disturbed while working under the sun.
After a short search, it was not difficult for him to find his mother among the white clothes. In the back, where there were shelves up to the ceiling, he found his mother, who was counting, struggling with a bunch of papers in her hands. The woman was so distracted that she didn't even notice her posture when she walked over to Ren and didn't move for a minute. If he hadn't turned his head to look at a passing employee, he might not have even noticed for much longer.
Hugging Ren, the woman was horrified by what her son had told her. While her motherly heart felt like it was breaking, she thought of a solution, yet the solutions that came to her mind were close to impossible. When she looked at her son's happy face, she saw something she couldn't understand.
His son didn't seem scared.
Saying goodbye to his mother and running home, Ren didn't pay much attention to the surprise and sadness of the woman behind him. After all, he was determined to get better.
He stopped by his house and packed as much food as he could get from the kitchen into his bag. He thought about his father for a few seconds, but as soon as he thought of his father, a great sense of trust and indifference took over his mind. A second later, he didn't care about his father's absence.
When he looked at the cheese, salami, tomatoes and a few pieces of dried meat he had packed in his bag and decided that it was just for two, he left the house. Passing by the main door, he saw Sirius and Munaka. The two had a heated argument with many children around them. They turned to look at Ren, who was running past them. But Ren, who had always followed them, didn't even turn to look at them. With a small smile and an expression of excitement, he ran out the door to wild and ignored the children.
At the end of the 15-minute road, a woman and a child were sitting in the cave and eating. And the room had a simple table, chairs, a wooden cabinet, and a bed. Never taking her eyes off the child in front of her, the woman kept waiting for the symptoms she expected Ren to develop in his body.
The woman had given eight drops of blood. The child's body should have started to warm up and developed, at least the disease should have been healed. Nuren ate impatiently while waiting for an evolutionary change that should happen in seconds. She was beginning to feel her patience running out now. Looking more closely at Ren's body, she could also see that the blood she had given had no effect at all.
With a smiling but weird face, she placed her hand on Ren's stomach and examined it more carefully.
Nuren saw eight drops of blood she had given had collected in Ren's stomach and converged in a single spot in the area of the disease. The large piece of blood crystallized and lay motionless in the area of the chest.
Not fully understanding what this meant, Nuren just decided that the boy's illness was not as ordinary as she had expected. The blood had come together to fight the disease and was adapting to the body, ready to act at any moment. Just like the protective antibodies in the body, they acted as an organism that would recognize the area they were in and solve all the problems and then develop the body.
After all, this blood was the blood of the sole heir of one of the most powerful families in the universe.
But if the blood was waiting for now, there must be another situation that Nuren didn't understand.
Until evening that day, Nuren talked about sorcery, warriors and how these roads progressed also expected a change in Ren's body.
But there was no change.
...
For three days, a boy woke up in the morning and excitedly exited the Gan family villa. He was leaving the villa at the same time as the workers who went to work and the warehouse managers.
Ren was on his way to his secret cave, which he hadn't told anyone within his clan.
For three days he had spent almost all of his time there. He spent time with the mysterious Nuren, whom he had just met. He was talking to her, training, and sometimes even playing games. This woman, who had no other issues other than a lack of shame, had been the perfect friend to Ren.
During this time, the closeness of the two grew even more. Now they began to share their deepest thoughts with each other. Especially though Ren knew that this rapid rapprochement was strange, Nuren, who had come from another part of the universe, did not find it strange at all.
The woman found it normal for people who were secretly destined to be close, to suddenly feel close to each other like this. And the woman was already convinced that she was destined to be close with Ren.
She gave Ren a present to open only when she went on a journey to continue her mission. She said that this gift was given to her by a family that was even stronger than her own. Ren was very curious about what was inside a sealed box. But he did not dare to open it. Nuren had become a very important person to him.
At the end of the third day, they came out of the cube. Saying goodbye, these two friends were sad. When Ren realized he couldn't hold back his tears, he suddenly turned around and left the cave. Standing by the tree for minute and not even looking at the view that he always loved, he headed towards the house.
Sighing in the dark cave, the woman felt helpless. She was angered by the burden of having to return to her family's assignment.
She wanted to stay here a little longer and see how Ren would grow up. Nuren or Pandora had the feelings of both a teacher and an older sister and someone in love, (though she was afraid to say it). Even though it was something frightening, the woman whose name in the universe was echoed as "Weixi de Nuren Auriel Pandora" couldn't dispel what she felt.
For the first time since her birth, this legendary woman, whose name resonates among the worlds as "Smiling Pandora or Laughing Reaper", felt that she wanted to stay somewhere. But with a sigh at her assigned task, she had to turn back and enter the earring.
Except for the metallic sound when the door was closing, there was no other sound. The cube closed its doors. And seconds later, the cave collapsed inward. The entire cave, along with the hollow next to the tree, was filled with dirt in a few seconds.
On the way home, Ren saw the children on the road. As the sun went down, the children sat on the ground trying to cultivate, imitating Sirius and Munata.
Ren watched them secretly for a few minutes, comparing what he had learned from Nuren with what these children had learned.
Then he shook his head and made a negative sound.
"They're so ignorant! I was too.."
He knew that if he hadn't met Nuren, he would never have become a mage in the future and would even die in a few months. That's why when he got home, Ren immediately went into his room and brushed aside the mess inside.
He put a soft and warm jacket on the floor. Then sat on it and took a comfortable position.
"I will become a powerful wizard and return the favor she has done to me. Maybe if I am too strong and she gets in trouble, I will go and save her. I will beat the bad guys by riding my dragon like a prince on a white horse..."
The little boy couldn't start cultivation that day. He couldn't concentrate because of his excitement.
When her mother entered his tiny room to invite Ren to dinner, she was met with a Ren who had fallen asleep on the floor.
He was only eight years old....
