Chapter 34 - Small Talk

G. Chapter 34

After comparing the visuals from the drone with the map, they found the place they are teleported to. They marked their position on the map.

" So which direction do you think we should start from?" Asi asked the opinion of her teammates.

Even if they had the map of the area, no one had the accurate location of the Yellow sour fruit. So every team must find their way to the Yellow sour fruit on their own.

The area where every team is teleported is a large land. They can be teleported at any place. The Teleportation formation is too big and no one can be teleported to their desired location.

So, everyone must find and fight their way to the Yellow sour fruit.

"My call. That way", Hosa immediately pointed towards the north-east. That's the direction he chose when the bells chimed. He's going to follow it.

Asi and Ahi turned towards where he pointed. Asi then turned her head to Ahi asking for her opinion.

" Why did you choose that direction?" Ahi asked Hosa without giving her opinion to her sister.

" I believe in my luck.*shrugs*. I think it's better than debating which direction to choose" Hosa said with a smile.

Ahi turned towards her sister and nodded.

Asi frowned, she concentrated her presence detection spell in the north-east direction.

Then she nodded," Okay. Let's go that way."

" Hey, I didn't get the chance to ask you before, which department are you from?",Hosa asked Asi, as they are moving forward.

" Earth Magic Department", Asi replied softly.

" Oh, earth magic. So you specialise in it.?", Hosa asked her.

" Yes", Asi nodded, as she paid attention to her surroundings.

" That's great. After healing spells I practice earth spells the most.", Hosa said with a cheerful smile.

" Oh! really", she looked at him.

" Yeah. Whenever my progress in healing magic stagnates or when I am free I practice with earth elemental spells.", Hosa replied immediately.

" Hmm.. what level of earth spells can you use?", she asked curiously. Not many people choose earth magic as their main element. Most people learn earth spells for just defence purposes. And then that's it, people won't put effort in earth magic afterwards.

"Level three earth spells, maximum. If I concentrate I think I can improve better." Hosa said as he pondered.

" Oh! You can use level three spells. Isn't it too much time consuming practising both healing and earth magic?" Asi asked him.

" No, it's not. Practicing those earth spells feels great. You can enjoy using and playing with earth magic. When I can't improve in my healing spells I just go out and practice earth magic. I mean we can practice earth magic without worrying about failures. But you can't fail with healing spells, it's dangerous. So I usually play with earth magic and stop worrying about failing", Hosa said with a faint smile.

" Yes, it feels good practising earth magic. Even if you fail, you can have fun practicing earth magic" Asi said with a gentle tone.

" What level spells can you use?", Hosa asked her curiously. This is something he didn't know from the information on her.

" Level five. I still can't use level six spells properly", she said after thinking about it.

" I heard, It's harder to grasp those high level spells", Hosa said to her.

" Yes, it is", Asi nodded.

" Sister, don't you think there's something weird?", Ahi interrupted them.

" Yes, it is. We haven't met with any wild beasts till now. It's suspicious", Asi said seriously.

" Also all wild beasts which came under presence detection didn't attack us", Ahi frowned.

" It's strange. All those wild beasts just ignored us and moved on", Asi said.

" Aah! Can I say something?", Hosa asked them.

" What?" Asi turned towards him and asked.

" You don't have to worry." Hosa smiled and said to them.

" What do you mean?", Asi and Ahi frowned and stared at him.

"I didn't inform you before but.." Hosa projected his information on his watch and pointed at his ability in the information,"Here, take a look."

Asi and Ahi read the content and widened their eyes. They looked at each other and then looked at Hosa.

" So, the wild beasts are not attacking us because of your ability?", Asi pointed at him.

" Yes", Hosa smiled at her.

" How does that work?", Ahi asked curiously.

" Well, if I am near to someone from the Beast Race they ignore me. But if I get close to them they will be friendly to me" Hosa explained in simple words.

They were surprised with his explanation. An ability like this is greatly useful in hunting. But the information didn't show that he couldn't kill them. Hosa kept the condition to himself and didn't reveal it.

Abilities are recorded in a person's information. They can choose to hide it too. Many choose to hide their abilities. It gives a surprise element to their attacks. They can also become their trump card. People try to hide their ability as long as they can. In time people's abilities are revealed to others.

Hosa didn't choose to hide his ability. He doesn't need to hide his ability. He has a passive ability and a massive obvious one at that. The other races are affected with him just standing near them. Beast Race treats him like a family and Demon Race undergoes panic mode. His ability can't be anymore obvious. Others can guess it easily.

So he added it to his information. But he didn't reveal the restrictions on his ability. Nobody would want to reveal the restrictions on their abilities. And the restrictions on his ability are too inconvenient to reveal to the outside world.

And his other ability "A Great Journey", he didn't reveal it even to his family members. That's some ability. A great ability he would say. Luck based abilities are unique. Many would eye him if it is revealed. So he didn't reveal that ability.

" 'A True Friend; A Vicious Enemy', a great name. Did you name it?", Asi asked him curiously.

" The ability felt like that. So I gave a name that justifies it." Hosa said with an awkward laugh. He didn't name it, it's the system. But he couldn't say that.

" Yeah, the name justifies it." Asi said to him.
