Chapter 3 - 003~ Raion World: The New World of Magic

Li Kai had already calmed down, his soul was fully healed; the same could be said for his mental fortitude.

The room was filled, not only was the King Lionheart present, a few high elders, the three Queens and even a Radiant Master was present.

Shock!

Disbelief was written completely all over their faces.

"Just how could the dead come back to life?" They all wondered.

This was all but legends in this world, even a radiant Master could do no such thing, they were clearly astounded.

The King most in particular found it difficult to accept, a whole lot of thought flooded his mind.

"Wasn't his son dead?" He thought, right now he was lost on what to do or say he could only stare blankly at the rest of all of them.

"Dad, Mum, enough with all these questions, how many times will I say it? I was only just sleeping? Or tell me will a dead man talk?" Li Kai said as he laughed.

Clearly he was determined never to let a single soul Know that he was indeed dead or rather the son the all knew was no more.

He practically didn't understand this world, it had just been a few minutes since he arrived, until he fully understood what was going on his secret can never be known!

However, everyone was clearly shocked once again, the seventh prince was very known other than a cripple who is both blind and has no magical talent, he is a man of few words.

As he barely spoke even to his own mother.

His actions made everyone certain that something is definitely different about him but no one could place where this feeling was coming from.

Li Kai was Davi, what could they possibly find out?

"Davi you really are alive, that is great, this is good news, my son isn't dead… The seventh prince truly isn't dead, he was only sleeping, quickly spread the news!" Jane was clearly happy because this meant a lot to her.

While others found this pill hard to swallow, nothing could be done as an irrefutable proof was right in front of them.

Lionheart was left with a lot to think about, even though he felt something different. He was a father after all, this was the first time since Davi took his magical test that he had spoken to him.

 

Lionheart was even more concerned about the disaster this new would cause, it suddenly seemed like the Festo Kingdom was nothing but a joke to even fake the death of the seventh prince.

At Least one thing made Lionheart happy is that his son's mysterious awakening gave him an ample opportunity to repair his relationship with Jane which he clearly cherished.

Sigh

"I better get ready. I suddenly have a whole lot of trouble to attend, just spring out of nowhere" King Lionheart thought.

"I will take my leave, Seventh Prince, getwell soon, and meet me once you have recovered. There is something I need to talk to you about!"

Shock!

Once again everyone was shocked but most especially Jane. This was the first time the king had spoken to her son since he failed in his Magic Awakening test, it could be said that he disregarded his existence.

Jane was moved, but not by much she still felt resentment for the king but it had decreased even if it was by a tiny inch.

The king was happy at least what he thought worked, more so they really is an important matter to talk about. He only said it then to get Jane's heart which he clearly felt like he had succeeded.

"Yes! Father" responded Li Kai.

Li Kai looked at his mum and said…

"Mum, siblings, I need some rest. I have to sought through my thoughts. They are a bit messy" Li Kai said as he smiled.

Jane was too happy to care over such a minor detail, Rita and Russell seemed rather unenthusiastic about that too, what bordered them most was Davi.

Although he said he was sleeping they clearly would not buy it, it's as if they knew that something has differently changed but he just didn't want to tell them. 

Jane was even having thought that perhaps her son might have experienced a second awakening since the first one failed, but it was nothing but a thought sill she couldn't just get that feeling of her mind.

"Of course my son, if you need anything all you need to do is call I will be here the very next second!" Jane smiled as she caressed his hair softly.

Soon after the room was empty and Li Kai remained alone.

***

Not long after they departed, the news immediately spread again creating another huge wave.

Even the indifferent heads of various families could not help but think of this.

It felt as if the royal family was planning something, or there was an underlying message that they could not just grasp.

Within the Destro Family; "I don't understand the game the royal family is trying to achieve but as far as it aids my goal… annexing the whole kingdom isn't far from my grasp" The head of the Destro Family smiled creepily.

"I guess it is high time i speed up my plans, that place would soon be open and I must get a spot and only by having close ties with the king would that be possible"

"Haha… Enjoy your throne while it lasts, Your Royal Highness King Lionheart. Your day of reckoning isn't far off." Luther Destro the head of the destro family said gazing into the distant horizon from his corridor.

While this occurred in the destro family, similar instances played out in other families of dukes and several other powerful family that held political power within the kingdom

"What do the king hope to achieve by faking his son's own death? Or could it be a rumor? No! It definitely isn't the royal messenger clearly announcing the news. How can it be wrong?" 

"Perhaps it could be the fight for who would succeed the throne has already begun? No! That is unlikely, it's probably related to that place… King Lionheart, what are you planning?" Gavino Petal, Head of the Petal family thought as he pondered in his chambers.

Gavino was one of the few who rarely stuck into the affairs of the kingdom, He was already a Grand Duke, just two ranks lower than the king's, with this it could be seen how powerful the petal Family is.

"It's high time I pay King Lionheart a visit, I just happen to need a spot when that place opens" Gavino thought.

Not so long after the news had already subsided, it had already been three days since the Seventh Prince was announced to be alive, every one within the kingdom had already resumed its activities, like nothing ever happened before.

During this time, Li Kai remained shut in his room seeing no one, except when the maids would bring him food he was absorbed with himself.

Within these three days he had been able to understand a lot of things about this world from Davi's memories.

The name of the world he was transmigrated into is known as Raion World.

What completely astonished him is the fact that saint force or any related energy he used in his former world didn't exist here.

Raion was a world of magic where magic trived, and Mages reigned supreme!

Li Kai was happy that the body he happened to possess was Davi's, turns out he was also quite a scholar himself.

Although Old Davi was blind, and had an absolute zero aptitude towards magic, the only thing left for him was study.

With the best tutors of the kingdom, tutors of the kingdom read to him, and taught him how to write, gradually he learnt how to read but only by feeling the letters.

Davi could be regarded as an academic genius as his comprehension abilities were amazing.

Li Kai learnt many things and even he who has lived a thousand years came to admire Davi's fortitude and unyielding spirit.

Davi failed his Magic Awakening, together with the fact that he was born blind since birth, he was termed a cripple. This developed Davi's personality into that of a hermit. 

A Man of Few Words, hense his second reputation. This however would soon change.

It had already been years since he took the test, eight years since his father spoke to him last. At the age of ten, he was termed a cripple indeed Davi had led a sad life.

Li Kai didn't mind that, he was rather happy about all the memories he was able to annex from Davi.

Li Kai, learnt of the existence of Nen.

Turns out it could best be described as similar to the saint force from the world of forsaken saints.

It was the name given to magic energy in other words it is Known as Nen.

For you to be classified a mage, you must be able to feel Nen around you but to do that you must pass the magic Awakening test.

Which as you all know Davi failed woefully.

In Raion, there are Seven Ranks of Mages.

Magic Acolyte,

Magic Master,

Magic Grandmaster,

Magic Archon,

Magic Warlock,

Magic Sorcerer,

Magic Paragon.

With the last four only being legends in Davi's eyes, as he has never seen them or even know if they really existed.

Li Kai was shocked as he learnt of this, because based on their exaggerated powers he wondered whether a Saint sage such as himself could take on a Warlock or a Paragon back at his peak.

Sigh

"Just where in the world have I come to? And of all things a Prince? Just where did I go wrong?" Li Kai said. 

He was clearly dispirited over his misfortune, he could even sense a storm brewing around the corner, from his memories he knew the fight for the throne isn't far off, plus the first and second prince won't just let him out of this affair.

Clearly he had no intentions of becoming a king.

"I wonder what a dungeon is like? It sounds so similar to the tombs of experts I raised back in the world of forsaken saints I really can't wait to explore one of them" Li Kai said.

"Also the existence of this legendary Cursed Fruit, it clearly is worth investigating it's a pity that Davi's knowledge is limited and our kingdom is but a tiny land it can't even compare to other kingdoms not to tall of the empires"

"Ayo! Just why would you leave so many pieces out of the puzzle now you are basically forcing me to search for answers coupled with my personal problems" Li Kai thought.

"A pity I have a crippled body, anyway what do I need to be worried about, I could easily turn a mortal into a heaven defying cultivation genius back in the world of forsaken saints." Li Kai thought

"With a few heavenly resources… Tsk I do not even know if those exit in this world"

"Hmmm. What to do? What to do?" Li Kai deliberated.

"Ahh!" 

"Found it why not I just try my old cultivation technique, it's already two days, tomorrow I should go see Dad… then by midnight it is the ample time to cultivate"

"Hehe" Li Kai laughed at this thought all that's left to do was wait till midnight.

***

Midnight

"Why isn't it working?" Li Kai thought.

"I have tried cultivating a dozen times already!"

"I clearly felt some energy but it just vanished… Ahh what have I done to deserve such misfortune" Li Kai asked himself.

Just then!

In the middle of the night at full moon, in a room closed and no passageway for air. 

Winds howled and the candles flicked, faint rumbles resounded throughout Li Kai's body.
