Chapter 7
Claris guides them to the captain camp office to take the sealed demon. As they run on such a hurry and desperate for a few minutes they finally arrived at the captain office while exhausted.
"Captain Galand!!! ''said claris''
"!!! Knock first you dumbass. Oh claris? And. You two are awake now then.
"Captain Galand where's the demon? ''Rein asked''
"Ehhh the demon what of it?
As Rein and Claude is desperate as they asked Captain Galand, however, Galand is confused
"Well I still have it, I was going to send it to the kingdom for the king.
"Um...we need it so please let us take care of it ''Claude stated''
".....what!?....well I see that you three were the ones who stopped the demon however it is still dangerous. I can't hand it to any of you.
Calude and Rein pleaded for the captain however the captain doesn't wanted to and henceforth the Captain made a Contract.
"Okay I will give you however you three must show us your power and how did you defeat and sealed the demon and accompany us to the kingdom of mistia. ''Captain Stated''
"....
The captain stated his wish for them so they can have the sealed demon. However the two are hesitating because it will involve them to such authority and noble power struggles that might in danger them.
However Captain Claude only wants to see their potential and make them live to the kingdom for the kingdom to gain benefits.
The two of them is deciding to agree or not to the contract. And so the three of them came into a conclusion and ,Claude stated their answer
"Captain we will only agree if. We will be free to do whatever we want once the contract is over. And we do if Gen is here with us, however he still asleep so please give us time.
Using Gen To buy time aside, They thought that if they will agree they might become a vassal for the kingdom and their journey and mission might not be finished until the calamity comes.
And so they came into a conclusion that if they are finally at the kingdom and tested their abilities they will be free to leave, and captain Galand replied.
"Sigh... Okay I agree to your demands.
"Okay captain. Then when are we going to depart ''claude asked''
"Soon because we captured the demon
"Okay captain
The four of them talked about four hours wasting their time because they have nothing to do and so, claris made a move
"Rein your single right?
"What the hell did I just said! ''she thought''
".....why do you ask. Well I do ''Rein answered''
"Ahhhahaha it's nothing really haha''
"Yes his really single! ''She thought''
She said with ab awkward voice however she's very happy in her thoughts as she confirmed that Rein didn't have a girlfriend. And then Rein asked.
"By the way Claris are you fully recovered to your injuries?
"Ah yes! I am!
"Woah his worried about me! ''she thought''
The two were having a fun conversation. Meanwhile Gen is still unconscious and is inside to his dream
"Where I'm I. What happened. Right the demon. Where is it. What is this place.
As Gen looked around to the empty space with nothing but darkish colour he sees the sage of Magic Gaius.
"Gaius! Where I'm I? Why are you here? I'm I dead?
In the state of confusion He asked Gaius desperately however Gaius answered.
"No Gen we're in your dream.
"My dream?
"Yes.
"But why are on my dream?
"Using magic of course. Magic binds the reality you know
Gen and Gaius talked to each other, however Gaius has something to talk to.
"Gen you collapsed due to creation of magic.
"I did?
"Yes creating a magic requires 10 mages to create a small spell such as fire ball.
''However you created an advanced magic alone.
''That's why your unique and thankfully that the mana bank jacket that I gave you became useful, because when you created the magic spell on that time all your magical energy has been consumed so when you casted the luminous Cage spell it used the mana on the jacket or else, you be gone Mad and unreasonable.
Gaius explained Gen on how Good is Gen is and so Gaius warned him.
"Gen I know your impressive but don't abuse your power. Using too much magic might turn you into an unreasonable monster.
"Huh.... then.
"I know so I will give you this my ability
(Copy magic-it makes you copy a magic easily) it's one of my best skills, however, as you know my power is restricted because of the Gods, so it has three limitations.
"Really but why?
"Because I choose you as my inheritor. With this skill you will be able to learn magic easily and you don't have to create a spell that might kill you. All you need to do now is to cultivate your mana.
"...okay thank you Great sage Gaius..
Gaius finished transferring his skill by touching Gen's head the skill transferred and he bid farewell.
"See you next time Gen. I don't have time.
"Yes see you next time.
And so Gen wakes up inside the tent alone and he wondered where is everyone. He wandered and found a knight and asked.
"Um sir. Did you see my companions?
"Yes they are on the captain's tent.
"Thank you.
Gen finally knows where they are and so he goes to the location to find them. An hour later Gen arrives seeing them four talking
"Hey!
"Oh your finally awake! ''Said Rein''
Gen arrived and created a conversation. And so they greeted him from waking up.
"So what happened when I was asleep guys? ''Gen asked''
He asked because his curious after the events and felt left out, therefore Rein and Claude answered his question.
"Well nothing much we just secured the demon. ''said Claude''
"However we will go to the kingdom soon so prepare, I feel there's a lot of events will happen ''Claude informed''
Claude explained to Gen about captain Galand contract with them.
"So we will go to their kingdom ''said Gen''
"Yeah.
Gen felt and filled with excitement as he is about to explore a kingdom that he only sees in fantasies.
"So when are we going to depart ''He asked''
" tomorrow ''Claude answered''
"Oh then let's sleep ''Gen Commented''
Gen was very excited that he recommended to sleep early to depart tomorrow to the kingdoms capital.
The next day.
"Okay let's go! To the capital! ''Said Claris''
They started to move with one platoon of knights and leaving the others for the camp
On the middle of the travels a monster appeared.
The monster was a huge bull with a Fury red eyes and black leather with the size of a truck
"Moooooo!!!
The monster bull began to run towards to them however Claude said he will stop it alone and he also wanted to test his abilities
"Flare wave!
Claude uses his spell to burn the bull however the flames were not enough at least it slowed down the gigantic bull therefore he use his flare burst spell
"Flare burst!
He ignites the monster bull by flames however the bull were tough. The bull was defeated about 3 hours on the first hour Claude exhausted his spiritual energy and the other two hours were the flames and the pain from the burns.
"Free bull meat! ''said Claris''
As they say to rest and eat. and to camp Gen asked about the kingdom and the capital.
"Captain? What is the name of the kingdom?
"It's mestia kingdom. It is famous for its king himself because of the feats and achievements he accomplished.
"Oh like what kind of achievement?
"Hmm...the most famous is he defeated a dragon and the second is his daughter was a chosen hero. however his daughter is specialises on a dark magic that controls the dead. therefore his daughter ran away to the palace and nowhere to be find.
As the Captain answered Gen's question the topic became a little heavier as they hear about the princes who ran away. Untill they asleep.
Two weeks later they finally arrived at the kingdoms outskirts and sees a lot of small houses that looks like from medieval era.
However they are heading straight to the capital there fore their traveling well be extended for a day. They arrived at noon on the barracks .
"Alright you all can rest I will be reporting to the royal palace ''said Captain''
"Okay Captain ''Claris commented''
The captain walked away to report the incident to the abandoned village however he will be hiding about the demon for a while as he promised.
"So this is the barracks huh. I want to explore the capital. Right guys ''Gen Stated''
Gen said that with a little excitement shown on his face therefore Claris agreed as the guide.
"Okay I guide you three follow me.
Claris offered guiding them not just for kindness but also to be able to accompany Rein on the trip.
"Let's do that tomorrow I want to sleep besides it's almost night ''Claude commented''
Claude said to rest for now with a tired expression from all those events and travels
"....okay
They agreed therefore they cannot stroll to the capital, and so Claris said with a exited expression especially for Rein.
"Oh you three must be hungry. I will cook. just wait for a moment.
Claris walked out to the room and goes straight to the kitchen to cook. The kitchen were huge theres about fifty cooks cooking various food for a hundred soldiers however Claris have a space special just for her to cook.
Claris lit the fire on the Magical device using a mana stone a stone that have a magical power therefore Claris wondered on what to cook.
"Hmm what should be better... AHH wished I asked them about the food they prefer.
And so three hours have passed claris came back to the room with nine kinds of food.
"Wha- there too many claris!
Rein said it straight with worry because it might be wasted because they cannot eat that all.
However Claris on three hours before was lost in thought on what to cook therefore she thought that to cook lots of different variety of food and so this moment came.
"Ahhh. Wel I don't know what kind of food you like so I cooked a lot. It's okay if you don't eat it all you know it's my fault...sorry.
"No! I will eat this all it took you three hours you know ''said Rein''
Claris said to Rein that it's okay to waste if however Rein said to eat it all or her efforts will be wasted.
On this moment Claris felt starstruck from Rein words as as she blushes.
"Well...let's just eat while it's hot.
She started to eat silently feeling a kind of pleasure from Rein eating the food she cooked.
"Okay. Let's eat ''said claris''
However Claude and Gen were listening them the whole time felt left out as they were forgotten on the room
Rein tasted Claris cooking and so the other
"Oh so how's the taste Rein?
"Hmmmm....it taste
