Before leaving the village, Kaito knew he had to say goodbye to his parents and friends. He walked to his family's home, his heart heavy with emotion. His parents were waiting for him, their faces etched with worry and concern.
"Kaito, are you sure you have to go?" his mother asked, her voice trembling.
Kaito nodded, determination in his heart. "I have to, Mother. I have to protect the village and the world from the dangers that lurk in the shadows. I have to become stronger and learn how to control my power."
His father placed a hand on his shoulder. "We understand, son. We're proud of you for taking on this responsibility. But be careful, and don't forget to come back to us."
Kaito hugged his parents tightly, feeling a lump form in his throat. He then walked to the village square, where his friends were waiting for him.
"Kaito, don't go!" one of his friends cried, tears streaming down her face.
Kaito smiled, trying to reassure her. "I'll be back, I promise. I just have to do this. I have to become the hero that our village needs."
His friends nodded, trying to understand. They hugged him tightly, and Kaito felt a sense of sadness wash over him. He knew he would miss them dearly, but he also knew that he had to do this.
As he turned to leave, the villagers gathered around him, wishing him luck and safety on his journey. Kaito smiled, feeling a sense of gratitude and appreciation for their support.
With a final glance at the village, Kaito set off on his journey, ready to face whatever lay ahead.
