"So how do I get out of Davient Illusion?" Florian ask his father.
"To fight an illusion, you have to create your own illusion." What his father says puts more confusion on his face. He doesn't understand any of it.
"That will confuse Davient's illusion. His power wants you to think what the power's holder wants you to think, however if you think differently on what the holder's power wants it will confuse the power and make it switch illusion to reality in reversed."
"You are making it so hard to understand. Can you shorten it?"
"Let your father teach you." He nod his head as he agrees to let his father teach him.
"As a beginner, you have to close your eyes." Florian immediately closes his eyes the moment he heard his father. "Imagine this is not just a plain jungle, but it is full of training tools and material to enhance your power." Florian just nodded his head despite him not knowing a thing about training materials.
So there are such a materials for training?
Florian did everything to think of something that can be a tool or material for training. He started thinking of weight tools that his father might use, or some psychological books for Davient and some movies for his mother.
"Can I open my eyes?"
"Oh, right, sorry, I forgot about you." He looks with disbelief. He just saw his father lifting a rock and can be clearly seen that his father just forgotten that he is closing his eyes.
He once again roams his eyes on the area. The ordinary center of jungle really becomes something else. The trees are gone and those tall grass, there are plenty of things for him to see. He can see some small houses that are just made of bamboo,
There are also some swords, axe, arrows and things that can be used in fighting. He was amaze on how it looks like. But he can see that those are definitely not for his age. Maybe his father will just let him use a wooden sword that is suitable for his age.
"Then how will I know my power?" He looks at his father, still busy on lifting the rocks.
"I don't know." He really can't believe his father sometimes. If his father does not know how to know one's power, then how he will know?
"Then how did you discover your own? Then why am I even here?" His father shrug his shoulder that makes Florian blink twice.
"Just tell me, how did you learn your own?" Florian asks. His father pointed at his clothes design, a brown bare tree. His father's clothes all have those designs on them.
"This was placed on my clothes when I was at your age. No one knows how to exactly identify your own power. That is why we all depend on what your color is. Mine is brown, so mine is anything related to ground," his father explained.
"That doesn't make sense at all."
"Power does not make sense at all." Florian can't do a thing but to scrats his head.
"You know anything about red father?" Guidren looks at his son before letting go of the rocks that he was lifting earlier.
"No, our town doesn't own any red power. But..." his father cut his sentence before sitting on the ground. As to Florian curiousity, he also sat on the ground to listen to what his father is about to tell.
"I only heard about this on my father that was passed on his father and the saga continues." Florian nod his head, from his ancestors.
