Chapter 9 - "New Friends"

After the incident the kingdom of Aleria and Argena requested an audience with Hiro to formally thank him for what he did. He somehow freed them for a while from the disturbance and extortion of other nations.

Both Kingdoms offered Hiro a reward but he refused. The capitals of the two went to celebrate for the whole week and peace had been obtained. He found out that these 2 nations were being isolated for decades. It's all because of the artifacts of Ancient War that they have in their possession.

Other nations want to take it. But because of a signed treaty sealed with Ancient magic other nations cannot fully attack Argena and Aleria kingdom because they are afraid of a curse put in the treaty.That who ever committed a full scale attack will suffer famine and drought.

So the less they can do is to harass and extort these two countries using a small scale of violence. But the duration will end one year from now. They started to attack more and more knowing that the end of Cursed Treaty is nigh.

He was being escorted by Althea the princess of Aleria and Rumia who turned out to be the sole heir of Argena Kingdom.. He spent his time with his new found friends they travel back and forth using teleportation magic.

They took him to a different place and sight seeing spot. Hiro was given a room in the Aleria palace and he felt amazingly happy sincecm he never experience this luxury in his previous life.

Sometimes he spent his time in the libraries and workshop learning about magic but there is no track record about spiritual power. He asked Great Siege and he learned that spiritual power was used during ancient times but its was being forgotten after the War ended.

Hiro saw a map of the of the world and the continent name is Panguea and it was consist of 9 nation.. Rumenis, Azure, Semeira, Haspin, Liberta, Fuscha, Drantell Argena and Aleria. The last two kingdoms are located at the edge of the continent.

But what took Hiro's interest about the map is.. It is somehow big and Panguea was surrounded by the ocean but it is somehow confusing with this huge map Only a small part was charted. There is something beyond this huge ocean or some unknown territories were uncharted. That was on his mind or maybe there is none and it was only a vast ocean. Who knows?

Hiro also learned that there are other kinds of species but he only encountered humans so far. Where are they? another question arises on his mind.

And a decision was made after learning about these things. He wants to go on a journey...

Both princesses were flustered and sometimes turning red faces due to Hiro's normal habit of hugging someone if he is very happy.

"Oi oi oi, don't tell me those 2 are having a crush on Hiro" it was Glenn who couldn't help but to be amazed by the Princesses reactions.

"Hahaha well i guess you are right knowing Rumia who is a shy kind of person started to talk a lot recently". replied by Zion.

"Evren my sister never gets along with another man except for and our big brother" Albertus added.

Hiro runs towards their direction while holding Althea and Rumia in both hands.

"Guys. Thank you so much for everything It's been very fun for me" Hiro told them.

"I know this is so sudden but i will go on a journey. And i want to give you guys a proper way of gratitude. It's the only thing I can do for you" he added.

"why so sudden was asked by Rumia who started to look sad.

"Yes why?" added by Thea who felt the same way.

The group was confused and asked him.

"I want to set on a journey to look for my sister if there is any chance that she was also sent here just like me" Hiro explained to the group.

They looked gloomy but they can't argue since it was very important for him.

"But before i go i want to give you guys a gift"

Hiro open his hand and a dagger appeared in his palm using materialization skills.

Hiro cast and anti magic field and they feel their magic was sealed.

The group was surprised and looked at him.

and he took Zion's hand "do you trust me?" Hiro asked him. Zion nodded at him. Hiro already knows how he gained his power as Ultimate Siege explained it to him and wanted to try something.

Hiro made a small cut in Zion's palm. and it bleed.

He then cut his own hand palm. He placed his own wound against Zion's wound. After a few seconds their palm glows emitting white and crimson colored light. The whole group was shocked that it was something that they did not know nor witness before.

When the light subside Hiro removed his palm and the wound stop bleeding and a black liquid like object started to heal Zion's wound. As soon as the wound closes Zion's body started to glow emitting purple aura.

Everyone was amazed and cannot believe their eyes. Zion started to feel a surge of energy. But it was different He felt more dense and he felt his body become light and stronger than it use to be.

"I used one of my skills to a awaken your spiritual energy. Aside from magic power there is a spiritual energy and it was 10 times more stronger" Hiro explained.

Then Hiro performed the same thing to everyone and they felt they became more strong mentally, physically and in terms of power they felt a huge leap compare to their previous level.

After performing the awakening Hiro removed the magic sealing spell in the area and explained that they can now use both magic and spirtual power. They cannot combined both but they can use at the same time using magic as manifestation of skills or spell and it can amplify but spiritual power. and so on.

"I sealed your magic power for a while so that the Muk wouldn't kill you in the process Muk eat everything that has active magic core"

He explained. Everyone turned pale and scared.

But with Hiro smile and since the process went well they pacified but had a sharp glance toward Hiro's direction who is currently restraining hisself from laughing.

"Please train your body, mind and soul to cultivate your spiritual power"

"In your current status right now you can beat those 7 swords easily and if you keep on training you can even rival the Warlord" Hiro added.

Everyone was amazed and surprised at the same time they were excited about the new power they obtained.

"I'll be going now thank you so much for everything" Hiro told the group.

The scene turned into a silent mode and sad air started to fill the whole garden of Aleria.

"Hey what's wrong?? Im not going to die I just going out for a journey".

"I'll be back after a few months wether i got a result or not i will comeback to my friends and it's you everyone"

"Promise?" a duet question by the 2 princess

"Yes promise" Hiro confirmed

And everyone cheer up and started to laugh again

They discuss a lot of thing the new power they had how can they improved it to protect their kingdom.

Hiro feel so happy right now. But deep inside his heart he miss his sister and he wanted to find her.
