So far since I have left the village it has been 2 months, the woods have not been easy, wild animals everywhere vines and the occasional monsoon but I have been persevering and with the help of Mr Shinto and his jokes I have kept my sanity intact.
With all this time going by I have always had the same thing going on in my head, the voice of the spirit talking about my destiny and to find this Master Dave, but I honestly didn't know where to start or what to even do, First of all my skills with a sword were non existent and secondly this whole thing about ZENRGY and how to use it has been distracting me but I still persevered and started to train hard to improve my abilities and my mind.
Just as we were getting ready to move, I felt quite uneasy as if something or someone was watching us from a distance but I soon shrugged it off as nothing and carried on packing, we started walking towards an area in the forest where I saw some really ancient ruins that somehow looked quite familiar and had a very calming nature to them I even asked Mr Shinto if he has ever been in these parts of the woods before but he was just as surprised as I was, as we talked more about how old these ruins must be, Again I had that feeling that we were being watched I hinted it to Mr Shinto and we both started running deeper into the ruin to try and catch whoever was out there.
We ran quite far from the entrance of the ruins the area was huge, nothing like I have ever seen before every wall and pillar were telling a story of how the old civilization lived and created in this place I was fascinated that such a village lived in these woods I also thought that maybe I could be related to these people I just continued walking around while staying alert, as we were coming to a dead-end I felt the person or thing getting really close to us I turned around and there was a dark silhouette with long hair and tall body, At first I thought it was a really weird human shaped beast but then as it came close and then noticed it was a person and a really tall one at that.
He told us to explain why we was were wondering in the forest.
"Stop right there you two why are you traveling in these parts alone shouldn't you be in some sort of village or town by now?"
"WE ARE JUST WONDERING THESE WOODS JUST TO FIND A GOOD PLACE TO CAMP AND TRAIN THAT'S ALL."
"Kid ain't you supposed to be in some type of school or education you look too young to be roaming around these parts."
This guy had some nerve to call me 'Kid' I was 18 at that time sure I did look really young and had no facial hair but still that's no way near the look of a kid
He just continued rambling about how he saw us walking around this part of the woods and that we were in his way of patrolling the area, as soon as he finished to us talking Mr Shinto smiled and said:
"hmmm your uniform looks quite familiar, are you by any chance one of the King's Search and Rescue Force, you guys have some nerve coming here acting all high and mighty doing whatever you want with these woods,I'll show you what I think about guys like you"
Damn Things are getting really heated quicker then I have ever imaged.
