Chapter 15 - Spirit Time Warp

"Well, Time Work Different, In Spirit Realm,and Physical World, I guess," the spirit spoke, shrugging off my question.

I stared at the spirit for a few moments, trying to comprehend what was going on.

"So what you're saying is that time passes differently in the spirit realm, and I've been here for three days?", I asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Yes, that's correct," the spirit nodded.

"But I don't understand how this is possible," I said, shaking my head.

That Spirit and I talk about course things, well I did learn new things about that spirit realm, but that was a good thing, I learned about a Magical Topic. But, did that spirit ever give name, does that spirit got name?

I ask slightly, " Hey Spirit, do you have a name?", I asked.

The spirit looked at me, puzzled. "A name? Why would you want to know my name?", the spirit asked.

"Well, if you're going to be my friend or mentor, then I should know your name," I replied, smiling at him.

The spirit chuckled slightly. "If you insist, then I'll tell you my name,"

The spirit paused for a moment, then continued, "My name is...Seth."

"Seth... That's a nice name. Your name is quite intriguing. Does it have a historical significance?" I asked.

Seth exclaimed," Yes, it does, actually. It was once the name of the God known as "Osiris". He was one of the oldest Spiritual in existence, and he was known for being very powerful. But he disappeared after a long time ago. Some say that he was killed, but others say that he left the world for reasons unknown."

"Huh, Osiris, was he your brother?" I inquired with curiosity.

Seth didn't answer, but I could see the look of sadness in his eyes.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to pry," I apologized quickly.

Seth continues to disregard my input, persisting with his own suggestions for change.

"Well, there are technique, I can teach you about mana," Seth slight out.

"What do you mean?" I asked, confused.

"Mana is the source of all magic," Seth explained. "If you can control your mana, then you can create powerful spells and abilities."

"That's great! Can you teach me how to do that?"

"Let me Showcase. If you loop your mana out and recycle it, it will build up your mana core faster than usual," Seth stated.

"Okay, how do I do that?" I questioned.

"First, you must find your center," Seth said calmly. "Then, you must focus on the feeling of your mana flowing through your body. Once you've done that, try to imagine a ball of energy forming inside your chest."

"I think I understand," I replied.

It was like to mediate your soul forces mana from your soul core.

However, I wasn't sure how to do that. I tried to do what he said, but I couldn't concentrate.

"Do you understand now?" Seth asked.

"No, I don't know what you mean," I said, frustrated.

"It's okay," Seth reassured me. "I'll teach you step by step."

"Okay, I'm ready," I said.

"First, you need to visualize your soul core," Seth explained.

"How do I do that?" I asked, confused.

I tried to do what he said, but I couldn't concentrate.

It took me an entire week to try and figure it out, master the basics, and delve into the advanced aspects, and I must admit, it was more challenging than I initially anticipated. The technique that Seth explained was quite tough to grasp and required considerable effort on my part. However, I persevered and dedicated myself to understanding it fully.

Eventually, after many days of hard work, I was able to fully grasp the technique.

However, I wasn't satisfied yet. I wanted to learn even more.

I spent the next few months studying the technique, learning its intricacies, and perfecting my understanding of it.

I must admit, it was quite difficult, but I managed to learn everything I needed to know about the technique.

I was able to use it effectively and efficiently in combat.

The technique that Seth explained was quite tough to grasp and required considerable effort on my part. However, following repeated trial-and-error, and meticulous revision, the technique is beginning to come together, albeit slowly.

Although the process of learning it takes a lot longer than one might initially expect, and in contrast to the relatively speedy process of learning the initial skills. After many week of hard work, I have managed to progress along the path towards gaining full mastery of the technique.

Since spending nearly almost half year in the spirit realm, It was nice to that fact, but how the heck, I have been able to survive this long. And do things- to get out of there, I wish I know way for get out there or find something useful.

"Seth, i finally did it," I said excitedly.

But, when I glanced towards him, the mysterious spirit just didn't show up, like he used too.

"Seth, I have finally done your technique," I cried out again, so I wander around cave.

Then Saw Seth, "Seth, Why you left me," I ask quietly.

"Well, young boys, i guess my time is up," said the mysterious spirit Seth

"What, you mean time is up?"

Seth looked at me, with a mixture of sorrow and understanding. I could tell by looking into his dark, bottomless eyes that he didn't want to say what was coming next.

"No…no…no….", I begged him to change his mind.

"Your time had come Hiro," Seth said sadly.

"I did have such a good time with you. It was fun spending time with you," Seth muttered as he stepped closer.

My heart burned with desperation; I didn't want him to go. "How am I supposed to learn magic without my mentor?" I cried out, "Seth!"

As his spiritual body began to fade away into sparkling lights, he gave me one last piece of advice, "Well, if it's time, Hiro, no maybe Mylo, then my time is up." With that, he disappeared completely..

I felt the confusion as I looked into Seth's dark eyes. How did he know my old world name? There was fear in my heart, as he stepped closer and grabbed my head like a caring parent.

"Your eyes still shine with the light of the universe," he whispered to me, his other eye half closed. His hand placed on my head caused an immense pain to rip through my skull. "You have been chosen to be the next Atres. Let me give you the powerful knowledge of all magical paths."

I watched helplessly as Seth's spirit seemed to drift away, fading like a starless night. I reached my arm out, desperate to reach him, but it all dissipated into sparkling dust that faded far too quickly.

When I thought he was gone forever, I fell to my knees and the tears began to fall from my eyes. But then something strange happened - the floor beneath me seemed to disappear and I felt as if I were falling out of the sky.

Fallen out through the sky, seemly as my eye water up tearly crying in flow of the wind, while my head start to spin. Could possible let me live up freely, but into saddness world, My loyal butler, my spiritual mentor had just vanished into thin air. The pain of his loss was immense, and I was unsure of how to cope with it.

It was heartbreaking to see them trying to protect me. I wished I could feel something else, something other than this misery. The wind swirled around me, lifting me up and taking me away from the forest before dropping me onto a bunch of trees that snapped beneath my weight. My body ached as I hit the ground, coughing up mouthfuls of blood. As I lost consciousness, all I felt was a never-ending stream of pain, and of course an immense sorrow.
