After I sealed off the devil I trained to use the Devils Magic. But I couldn't activate it instead it was more like I could temporary widen my capacity of magic. With this it seemed more easy in a real fight. Since I could use now this to widen my capacity I should check how much I could widen it. Thus I drained all power from the devil and then used magic like there was no tomorrow. I found out that if I were to use the devil's power I could widen it by half. Meaning that I had temporary 1.5 times my normal storage. That's completely awesome! 0.5 just for defeating this tiny little guy and sealing inside me! That's a nice extra. As soon as I was finshed with my practices I again meditated for some days and then the two weeks were finally over. Then I said in a sleepy voice:' Done ~ ! Finally I was able to finish all what Lady told me!'. Meanwhile as I was finished with my training I was just around goofing off in order to await Lady Puncella. It was really nice having a break. Lady arrived at afternoon the sun also started to sink. That normally is a bad omen but I don't think so. At least Lady was here again and I could learn more from her.
Suddenly a guy I guess was behind her and then directly in front of me. He spoke with a somewhat gloomy voice and said to me:' You are her desciple correct?'. He knows me? Is he maybe a friend of Master? I don't know yet. Master looks really unhappy so I don't want to talk about it. I replied without thinking or a butch of lack of self confidence and told him:' Yes I'm Lady Puncella's desciple. I'm pleased to make your acquaintance.'. Without any delay he emitted black smoke which was similar to the cloud the devil helped me with. I instantly knew what I needed to do! I opened my mouth and used wind magic and tried to swallow everything inside my mouth. With a smirky voice and a high tone the man replied:' How are you little boy going to swallow my Greater Curse? Hmm?'. I still swallowed it and fainted. What happened after that I only know from the man himself as he told me afterwards. The man was now inside my head and could see the seal I had on the devil. He even tried to talk with it! The devil was really angry that now even an outsider knows about it being captured inside me. He was then walking around to look for me. He couldn't find me but he got to know my biggest secret. The fact that I'm reincarnated! He also doesn't know what occupation or character I had in my former world but he knew I was reincarnated as he heard thoughts from me talking about how I'm a reincarnated person and so on... Slowly blackish fog appeared around me and he again happened to be outside of me. The man than shouted with as much energy as a vulcano which is bursting every second:' Puncella this box here, your desciple, is the complete time deceiving you! He lied as he said he doesn't know who he is! Don't believe what he said! He even sealed a devil inside him! In the last 4 centuries noone of our kind was able to do this and this little boy was able to do that? He uses you and then he will toss you aside if he has no use for you anymore!'. I was found out even though what he said was complete bullshit he still knew I was reincarnated! I turned to Lady and said with a slow tone:' Lady Puncella, Master, he is right with the fact that I'm reincarnated but I really didn't know anything when we met. I don't want to use you! Believe me! Think about our first meeting! You were trying to fuse with me right? How could I use you in that situation? I accepted my fate but I wanted to spent more time with you!'. Lady Puncella then cried and said as she was sobbing:' You... Sob... You wanted to... Sob... Take advantage off me and then and then... Sob... Sob... Wanted that I teach you so you... Sob... Wouldn't be killed right? You used me to get away from the Treelord and then you used me to teach you and teach you my secret arts right? I don't want to kill you but I can't see or train you either. So leave! Don't even say a word! Just leave now!'. What has she said? I was ready to offer her my life at the beginning. But now she doesn't want me anymore! I was startled and felt completely sad I couldn't say anything to convince her that I'm not guilty. But I only could cry and witness my cruel fate again taking action. I cried and cried and left. When she couldn't see me anymore I cried like a little child. I really admired her. I wanted to stay with her, learn from her, tell her about me. And then one day she would start talking about herself. And her past.
As 2 and a half hour passed I began to walk away from the place where my Master lived. In my heart I still held her dear. Maybe one day we can meet again I thought. This guy who was with her all made it seem wrong. He was trying to protect her I understand the thought. He seems like a nice guy. But he committed an unforgivable sin. He seperated me and Lady Puncella! He needs to pay even when my Master stops me! The next time I see him he will pay! I thought and I pulled my face together I made a face that would be on a Halloween mask but here I stood making a face that would even scare the most capable guys. My eyes had even a red light with murderous intent emitting from each of them! But I didn't know as I did not have a mirror at that time. In order to protect myself my memories and my time I again started to train asi was before. I trained and trained and trained... I was very obsessed with it and was trading like an idiot. I trained from sunrise to sunrise without any break for 4 days. At the time the sun rose the 4th time in exactly that moment I collapsed. Meanwhile I even started to train in my dreams! I used more imagination of magic to complete and Master at least on aspect of it. All in all the time I spent in my dream was about 3 days and 6-8 hours which was a whole day and one or two hours in the real world. Thus I waked up and started to train again. My physical training was now much easier as I rested enough. During my daily training routine I often thought about what Master told me and felt nostalgic about it. That aside I began with my usual magic trading when I heard screams of a young person coming not far where I was so I ran over to look who was in danger and if I could help or not.
I looked closely and saw that it was a young boy who was sometimes looking at my training. He sometimes repeated it or if he wasn't capable he just witnessed. He was trapped in something like a plant. It was a plant monster that devours mages or people with affinaty in magic. It is a real weak plant my Master told me all about plants as she wanted to study with me making elixirs next. I couldn't recall the name of it but it was easy to rescue the boy and kill the plant. It took me mere seconds to deal with it all. The the boy bowed and said:' Hello my name is Durian Reed! Thanks for rescuing me! Can I help you with something to make up for saving my life?'. As I hear the little ones words I thought about his proposal:' Do you know where I can earn money with hunting and a place where I can rest?'. 'Sure!' he said. 'Come to my village! I will guide you there!'.
