Something Ren never expected happened.
The tree responded!
An energy that looked similar to the one he had sent, but much more pure and powerful, passed from the tree to Ren's back. The boy was frightened at first and hesitated a little. And as soon as he hesitated, he realized that the energy was running low and trying to go back.
Even Ren's thoughts were very important. He took a deep breath and tried again, confidently.
This time he sent the energy from the tree to his dantian. The wild energy swirled around his dantian a little, then a whirlpool formed as usual. As soon as Ren started absorbing the tree's energy, something started happening throughout his body. It was as if for a second, every cell in his entire body trembled.
The pure and savage energy that had finally faded in his dantian disappeared. And Ren now had the Breath of Isra (passive).
Ren wanted to study the technique, whose direct effect on his body he didn't quite know. That's why he wanted to open his eyes. He was beginning to feel dizzy when he finally opened it. In fact, he was officially losing control of his body. Everything was speeding up, his heartbeat was slowing, and he was losing control of what he was doing.
Ren then let out a small curse, wondering if the so-called God Isra guy was an alcoholic. He wasn't sure, but he was probably drunk!
As soon as he realized this, he started to become unbalanced. He stood up and started using the wind steps like crazy. There was a great imbalance. He was already running in a random direction when he started doing his own thing. As he ran from place to place, he made his way towards the dark mountains to the south where he didn't normally want to go.
In fact, at that moment, it seemed like a very good idea to go to the mountain where there were countless creatures in the dark of night.
With boundless confidence other than dizziness, Ren was experiencing the first drunkenness of his life. On his first night of drunkenness, he wanted to jump among the deadly beasts and fight.
..
If he hadn't used his wind steps, maybe he wouldn't have gone so far until his head cleared. But when his head came back a little, he had already crossed one mountain and was advancing to the second. It was half an hour's jog from the mountain where the school's headquarters was located.
"Where am I?"
When a logical voice started to form in his head and he decided to turn back, he was sitting on the ground among giant trees where even the moonlight couldn't quite penetrate!
"God of Wind - ISRA. I will remember your name!"
Ren asked himself what was going on as his eyes widened. He couldn't tell when he stopped running and sat on the ground. Although Ren didn't understand it at the time, he had actually felt the effects of both drunkenness and flying. At first, his heart slowed down and his head was dizzy. Yup. This was drunkenness.
But then all of a sudden his heart started to speed up and his heartbeat went above normal. And this time things accelerated instead of slowing down. In fact, Ren didn't know that since this started, he sat for about an hour looking at a tree and sighing. (?)
As if waking from a bad dream, he suddenly came to his senses and realized that he was very deep in the forest. And he didn't know how far from school he was either.
A little frightened by the darkness around him, he opened his book and tried to look at one of the techniques he hadn't learned yet.
*Eyes of the Night (Side ability - Passive)"
Since there was very little moonlight, he lit a small fire with his hand. Then, with little energy left, he memorized everything in a short time. He had so little energy of his own in his body that even the simplest thing was straining. Ren needed a good night's sleep and a long meditation.
He was relieved when he realized that the technique was just a simple one, running a total of two energy channels under the eyes. There were no complicated parts or anything difficult. And without waiting, Ren immediately tried. Unlike all his other techniques, this technique was extremely simple.
He blinked a few times, waiting to get used to it. When he could finally see more clearly in the dark, he jumped in fright. In the distance, a huge animal with glowing eyes was staring at him.
Having felt over the past few months that he had a tragicomic life, Ren didn't know whether to cry or laugh at that moment. He had learned multiple techniques one after the other. Considering that he could learn them all without any problems, he realized that he was a very talented person. He did not think that under the same conditions other people could learn as smoothly as he did.
But…there was always a "but" in Ren's life. He was never even given enough time to enjoy what he was doing!
There was a huge wolf about 100 meters ahead.
Yes, it is real, angry, furry, and a mythical animal that adorned all the full moon stories. More than half of his feathers, bathed in the moonlight, glowed with a silvery light. A fast animal with a lot of animals by nature. A gigantic two-metre wolf that looks frightening even on its own.
Ren felt a heat hit his face. It was as if the temperature of the environment had suddenly increased and even the wind was blowing hotter. He didn't know how he got there, but he found himself here when the Isra God took the absurd nature energy into his body to learn the technique.
"Damn you, Isra!"
Gritting his teeth, he stood up. He thought about what he could do. And then he took a small step back.
Roar..
The moment his back step touched the ground, a loud growl was heard. The moment the growl was heard, this time a warmer and stronger hot air was felt not only on Ren's face but also on his body.
Even though the beast did nothing, it could still affect Ren badly with its eyes and snarling. He literally had the ability to scatter his energy around it in the form of a bloody killing intent, influencing it's prey.
Ren whispered to himself. "Even if something like a dragon emerges, I won't be surprised anymore."
When he felt compelled to take another step back, he took a step forward at the wolf, as if realizing what he was about to do. He growled once more with anger in his eyes.
Although Ren couldn't see the beast clearly with his eyes, from what he could tell from the bloody energy up to his face, this wolf probably possessed a rank II dantian. The energy that Ren felt was bloody and brutal, but compared to his own third-level energy, it was a bit weak.
Also, if the wolf was the third level, Ren would have no chance of surviving. Animals were stronger than humans at the same levels. And he dismissed the possibility that the Wolf would be the third rank. Ren had to deceive himself!
In particular, some types of predators can become strong enough to pose a danger to humans without entering the monster type. The wolves, which are abundant in these mountains, can be hunted mostly at level one and two.
Ren had seen these as he skimmed through the rule book he had read the day he had arrived. But Ren, who also read that there were third-level ones, childishly ignored this part.
I am only nine years old. I shouldn't have to go through this kind of bullshit!"
Ren was torn between running behind and running away, or fighting using his newly learned techniques. But he remembered that he was a mage, not a warrior. Even if he was at a higher level than this beast, he did not have any speed or strength advantage. There was no advantage at all. He did not believe that shooting a small colored fire from his hand would kill this wolf.
Somehow, he had to escape.
Very slowly, he took another step back. But the whole blood desire of the animal was starting to be felt much more clearly this time. And this time it didn't just take a step. The wolf walked to a clearing where Ren could see it more clearly and stood in the moonlight, keeping his red eyes on him.
Ren could see the wolf now, and his fear grew even more. He looked old and strong. He was carrying multiple scars and blood stains on his face. And that was enough for a 9-year-old boy like him to start crying with fear.
Although these stories took a long time, they actually happened in a few seconds.
Just as Ren was about to start running to escape, the wolf suddenly sprang up. Ren's heart was about to stop working out of fear as the frightening beast started running with all its might.
Ren had never been more frightened in his life as he stared at the wolf running towards him.
