Early in the morning we prayed again asking for help from God, the only reply that I got is to continue what I was doing because I was doing the right things for the issue at hand. He reminded me that he cannot intervene directly with the affairs of men but he will send dreams to his remaining followers to search for me and approach me to help us if they can.
together and eating breakfast, we went about our business.
Father tended the fields while Mom and Vi cleaned the pond and fed the fish with leftovers. I try to help as much as I can, cleaning the house as well.
Man, being a kid is tough work! I look around and try to sense if there are people evil people nearby, nothing. I sweep the backyard leaves.
Afterwards, we all left home and went fishing with the kids. I proposed to divide the fishes based on the needs of the kids, so that all of them were satisfied.
"Good work son." Father patted my head. Mom gave me a kiss on the cheek as well. I blushed in embarrassment. She just laughed.
--------------------
We then ate lunch prayed and got dressed up to go to the Adventurers Guild. Vi went on to train, while mother and father applied as adventurers, to the astonishment of the people there. As rehearsed, dad said that they training to help find the kids as the others are doing.
The atmosphere relaxed and while being held by mother and covered with a blanket, I cast my holy spell on the crowd.
Some people recoiled and looked around, I guess there are lots of evil men here or under the influence of Damon.
I memorized their faces and attributes, I call one group, Tom, Dick and Harry, 3 nasty looking dudes in matching dark adventurer cloaks.
There is also another group who has a dark aura about them but wears regular adventurer gears.
I call the guys Surly, Barney and Toe. Surly looks like he's going to punch someone, Barney looks like he got left in the panty as a kid and Toe looks like he fell flat on his face as a baby.
I now have 6 suspects. We need to find who they are, where they live and if they have patrons or not.
Later, I heard the good news that my parents are qualified as to be trained as adventurers. Father has innate talent for fire based spells and he has high physical stats. Mother, while having weak stats, has an innate talent for healing and nature spells.
So, there are fire based spells, holy spells, nature spells and healing spells. What other spell categories are available I wonder?
We waited for Vi to finish her training and then went home.
We ate dinner and discussed what we found out. I told them about the 6 people who are tainted or under the false god Beta and we discuss what to do with them.
"For now, practice in the Adventurers Guild and hone your skills Mom and Dad. Did you find out the spells available in the Guild?" I asked.
"The Guild instructor said that scrying spells are available for people with nature affinity like your mom or by people with arcane or wild magic.
She can also learn the talk to animals spell, a level 1 spell that she can learn easily, providing she raises her magic points so that she would be able to cast the spell. It needs 10 magic points to be cast She currently has 5 magic points. She needs to either raise her level or practice magic to increase her magic points." Father explained.
I can practice casting nature healing spell or nature growth spell so that I can raise my magic points and level. I will keep on practicing and see how fast I can increase my level." Mother said.
"Vi, on the other hand, does not have other elemental magic affinity except for light spells. Maybe she will have more elemental affinity when she levels up . I told her to practice her light spells as much as she can and maybe she would be gain other elemental affinities so she can unlock other spells."
Vi nodded. She looks sad and dejected so I tell her that if she gains another elemental affinity, I will cook something good for her. Her eyes lit and she look motivated already.
We later discussed on how we can build the underground shelter or base or how big it is.
We can only support the walls by thick logs and flat wooden walls and can fit 8 people at least where we can practice magic and also put a table inside to have meetings. My father will start working on the underground shelter tomorrow.
With that, we prayed again thanking the maker and turned the lamp lights off.
We are making progress, I just hope the kids are still alive.
