Chereads / The Sage Rat / Chapter 31 - One Day

Chapter 31 - One Day

Another beautiful morning dawned. The bright sunlight filtered through the leaves, illuminating the space around the rat village. The Sage Rat, after a long night of pondering new ideas, woke up and began to continue writing in its journal. The pages were filled with notes about knowledge and valuable lessons learned from life and its experiences.

Once the Sage Rat had finished writing a few new pages in its journal, it felt inspired to upgrade the Encyclopedia Ball. Previously, the Encyclopedia Ball was kept in the Sage Rat's backpack, but now it had been upgraded to fly freely. This new feature made it easier for the rat to access knowledge anytime and anywhere.

As it contemplated what improvements could be made to the ball, the Sage Rat recalled the journey to find the raven flock. It realized that the Encyclopedia Ball was still lacking in knowledge as it had never been informed about immortality. But now, everything was different.

Speaking of the raven, the Sage Rat suddenly remembered the remaining Peach of Immortality tucked away in its backpack. It knew that by consuming the peach, it would achieve immortality in terms of time, meaning it would never have to face death due to aging or illness, but could only perish from physical harm.

However, what was even more important was that it had forgotten to present the peach to the Sage Raven, a creature it greatly respected. Unable to let this continue, the Sage Rat decided it had to act immediately. It hurried down the mountain, carrying a pre-drawn map and the remaining Peach of Immortality, filled with determination.

On the way, the Sage Rat gathered the most trusted rat to assign this important task. The chosen rat was entrusted with securely holding the gift, preparing for the journey to the dwelling of the raven flock. Though this would be a new journey for the chosen rat, it felt confident because it knew this mission was not merely about delivering a gift, but a symbol of knowledge and connection between the beings in this world.

After everything was prepared, the chosen rat set out on its way, facing the challenges alone. The Sage Rat stayed behind, watching the silhouette of its friend gradually disappear behind the trees, filled with hope for a meaningful and successful encounter with the Sage Raven.
