"Have you noticed Kotaro?" After the welcome meeting ended, Cesar moved to the main topic.
"You mean the boy with the two different magic?" the dragon king guessed.
"You are truly the master of this forest, nothing is hidden from you here, he's Réonal's son," Cesar said.
"Even if he was the son of Réonal, no one has ever possessed two natures of magic." The Dragon expressed his interest: "If people knew about this, the whole world would follow him."
"This will happen inevitably. From the beginning, Kotaro's goal was to eliminate the Yamikara," Cesar sighed.
The Dragon King asked, "How did this kid learn about Yamikara? Didn't Réonal leave his family inside Pace City?"
"Yes, but they sent some of their members to assassinate Mrs. Cristina." Cesar replied.
The Dragon was surprised and sighed inwardly: "Hmph, is it his goal or destiny as one of the Shamak family."
"The reason I came to see you is that in the future, if Kotaro asks you for help, please fight with him." Cesar pleads insistently.
"Don't worry, I'll never forget the day Réonal and Cristina rescued me, helping their son would be an honor for me," the Dragon King agreed without any hesitation.
"Thanks, that's it, I'm leaving," Cesar turned away.
"Before you go, I want to ask you about the hidden tomb, did you find it?" The dragon asked.
Cesar's expression changed: "No, unfortunately. If we had, the Yamikara would have been wiped out long ago."
The dragon resented after hearing that.
"Okay, bye." Cesar left, transforming into a beam of light and darting back toward the center of the forest.
In the center of the forest there was no beast, only a wide expanse of grassy plains and a great river running through it in the middle. This calm environment allowed the three friends to practice for two years without being disturbed.
"Have you finished arranging your things?" Akina said in her soft voice. She was wearing a long white dress that extended below her knees and merged with her white skin, while her pink hair grew long and drooped from the length of her back to her waist.
"Yes, we are coming." The owner of the voice was Ryota, his hair had grown out a bit and had acquired a wound mark along his forehead.
"Finally we're leaving." Kotaro smiled and felt excited, the same old and lively Kotaro.
After finishing, a fourth person came, it was none other than Cesar: "Are you ready?"
"Yes, drive the way, uncle," Kotaro said.
Without saying another word, Cesar sped off and the other three followed him in the opposite direction of Pace Town, bypassing the center and into the woods as the first time two years ago.
The Forest of Monsters had two entries, the first was connected to the road that ran from the gate of Pace City, the entrance that Kotaro and the others used two years ago, and the second was at the other end of the forest, which Cesar now used to get out.
Cesar was leading the team and defending against the attacks of the monsters that were waiting for their exit from the center of the forest.
All the way no one spoke, only the screams of the beasts afflicted with Cesar lights could be heard.
After passing half way through, Kotaro broke the silence: "Uncle, do we attack too, monsters are not only dangerous but attack in groups and even you will face a difficult situation if you fight alone."
Cesar rubbed his chin and sneered: "Boy, you still have a long way to worry about me, if you want to help me shut up and watch."
Kotaro fell silent again and continued on the road.
After another day, everyone came out of the beast forest
"Finally," Kotaro stared, exploring the view around him.
In the distance he could see a chain of two or three mountains, before him there was no road like the first entrance before, but a wide field of withered corn that prevented anything from being seen.
"Okay well, everyone listen," Cesar said after a deep sigh.
"By the end of the two years of training, I have kept my promise to you, the three of you have become stronger so it's time to leave."
Kotaro frowned: "What departure are you talking about, won't you go with us?"
"Yes, uncle, we are used to you being with us." Akina cried and Ryota grieved.
"I'm sorry, I have other things to take care of," Cesar said with a sad expression.
"Thank you Uncle for everything, you have been like a father to us during these two years," Kotaro said honestly.
"Yes, we will never forget what you did for us."
"Thank you for putting up with my actions, uncle."
Each of the three expressed his thanks and gratitude.
"Before I leave there is what I want to say."
"First of all, Kotaro, regarding gravity magic, try to use it only when necessary, make it your trump card, if people know, you will get into trouble."
"I will."
"Secondly, regarding the Yamikara, there are three main organizations affiliated with it: Salamander oversees the areas of the east, Zero in the north and Leitein in the west, and for the areas of the south, which include the city of Pace, they were relatively safe from the authority of the Yamikara, because they were protected by the Gerado organization, but since they were able to assassinate Mrs. Cristina, that means they started to regain control of it."
"So be careful. Hit only when you are sure of winning, and there is no need to rush when making decisions. Show no pity to your enemy, nor does it harm making friends with good people"
"Finally, take care of yourselves," Cesar said his last sentence as he turned into a light and flew away from everyone's gaze.
As the flames of excitement rose in Kotaro's eyes, "Yes, Uncle Cesar, now the road to revenge will begin."
