Chapter 6 - Unbbreakable bond

Kazaris was sitting on top of a tree, watching the scenery. Karil came beside the tree, looking at Kazaris with curiosity.

Karil: "Are you always interested in climbing to different places?"

Kazaris smiled at Karil with pride and said: "It makes me feel superior, even though I lost my powers, it feels really good."

Karil: "Really? I'm afraid of heights, so I never thought of it that way."

Kazaris said in surprise: "But you jumped from a tall tower to commit suicide."

Karil: "Yeah, but it was really scary."

Kazaris stood up on the tree branch, holding onto the trunk with his hand, and smiled, saying: "Do you want to come up and see how it feels?"

Karil: "But I..."

Kazaris: "Don't worry, I'll hold your hand and make sure you don't fall."

Karil grabbed the tree trunk and tried to climb up. Kazaris took Karil's hand and pulled him up.

Karil got very anxious and said: "I'm scared!"

Kazaris held Karil's hand tightly to encourage him.

Kazaris smiled and said: "Don't worry, I've got you."

Karil was terrified and said: "It's so high up here!‌" 

Suddenly, Karil unintentionally put his weight on Kazaris, and they both fell from the top of the tree.

Kazaris sat up and pushed Karil back with his hands.

Kazaris: "Don't be such a wimp, scaredy-cat."

Karil cried and said: "Sorry! Because of me, you fell and got hurt!"

Kazaris stood up and suddenly realized he didn't feel any pain.

Kazaris examined his body and said: "It's really strange, I'm not hurt at all, I don't feel any pain!"

Karil: "Really?"

Kazaris looked at his hands and said: "Karil, hit me in the face."

Karil: "But I..."

Kazaris hit himself hard in the face.

Karil was upset and said: "What are you doing, brother?!"

Kazaris thought for a moment and said: "I don't feel any pain at all. If I don't feel any pain, it means I..."

Kazaris looked at Karil and said: "I'm going to the city library, I'll come back to train with you later."

Karil smiled and said: "Okay, I'll wait for you, brother."

Lyotan came into the yard and saw Karil sitting by the tree. He approached Karil and said: "Karil, where has Kazaris gone? I thought he was with you."

Karil: "Kazaris said he was going to the city library and would come back."

Lyotan put his hand under his chin and thought: "But I placed a seal on him to prevent him from using magic. What could he be researching in the library?"

Karil stood up and said: "Papa, I love you very much."

Karil hugged Lyotan. Lyotan smiled and said: "I'm glad you're not like Kazaris, I was worried he would teach you bad things."

Karil smiled and said: "By the way, Papa, when can I go to the magic school?"

Lyotan thought for a moment and said: "When you turn 16. If you have a lot of talent, you can get into the magic school."

Karil: "Do I have a chance to get into the magic school?"

Lyotan: "I don't know yet. You're a very special and unpredictable child. One day your talent might bloom."

Karil: "Papa, when did your talent bloom?"

Lyotan thought for a moment and said: "Well, my talent bloomed very late. Almost everyone was disappointed in me until one day, just when I least expected it, I was able to use a powerful spell for the first time."

Karil got excited and said: "What kind of spell?!"

Lyotan: "I can trap my opponent's hands and feet with magical circles so they can't escape."

Karil, even more excited, said: "Can you teach me?!"

Lyotan sighed and said: "Sorry, Karil, but this magic is very dangerous. I can't teach it to anyone."

Karil smiled and said: "Okay, if Papa says it's dangerous and I shouldn't learn it, I'll listen to him."

Lyotan patted Karil's head and said: "You're my good boy." He smiled.

Kazaris returned home with several books. He went to his room and spent hours reading various books and researching reincarnation magic.

Tanita was amazed by Kazaris's actions and said: "What a strange child, he's been reading books all day."

Lyotan frowned and thought: "What are you planning this time, Kazaris?"

Tanita smiled and said: "He's really a smart kid, he'll get into the magic school very soon."

Karil went to Kazaris's room, watching him curiously. 

Kazaris: "Why are you standing? Come sit."

Karil sat at the table, watching Kazaris with curiosity.

Karil: "Brother, what are you doing?"

Kazaris closed the book, looked at Karil, and said: "I'm researching reincarnation magic. I want to know exactly what happened to me."

Karil: "Did you find anything?"

Kazaris sighed and said: "Well, actually, I can never restore my true body."

Karil was surprised and said: "Why? Didn't you just get your body back?"

Kazaris: "This is a substitute body created using your mana. In fact, my real body was disintegrated in a big explosion, and nothing is left of it."

Karil got worried and said: "What are you going to do now?!"

Kazaris smiled and said: "As long as you're alive, nothing will happen to me."

Karil said in surprise: "What do you mean?"

Kazaris smirked and said: "My existence is tied to you. If you get killed, I'll disappear forever too."

Karil lowered his head and said: "Sorry, I've brought so much bad luck to you."

Kazaris got angry and said: "Stop apologizing to me. None of this is your fault. It's destiny, a destiny!"

Karil: "Destiny?"

Kazaris: "You're not bringing bad luck at all. You've helped me more than you think. So don't let people's words affect you so easily, and hold your head up high!"

Karil stood up and said with determination: "Please teach me to become stronger, I don't want to be a scared and weak child anymore!"

Kazaris smirked and said: "I'll make you my best student, I'll make you stronger than anyone else, and then together we'll take revenge on all these heartless people."

Karil clenched his fists and said: "I'll become the strongest, and then together we'll change this world, brother." He smiled.

Kazaris thought: "Even if I don't have any power, this kid could be a great successor for me."

The next day, Kazaris was secretly training with Karil, forcing Karil to run around the yard. Karil was very tired, out of breath, and couldn't move anymore. Kazaris came to Karil and said: "Come on, keep going. If you want to improve your magic skills, you need to strengthen your body!"

Karil fell to the ground, exhausted, and said: "I'm tired, I've been exercising since early morning..."

Kazaris thought: "This kid, even though he's very pampered, has more talent than I expected."

Karil sat up and said: "Today, you really became a real devil, giving me hellish training."

Kazaris frowned and said: "Well, because I really am a devil."

Karil: "Well, today you even have wings and horns. It makes you really scarier."

Kazaris smirked and said: "If I'm not scary, you won't listen to me."

Karil: "I thought you lost your powers."

Kazaris crossed his arms and frowned, saying: "I really don't have any power. This is my true form. I hide my wings and horns so people won't be afraid of me."

Karil smiled and said: "In a way, you're like me. That's why I feel comfortable when I'm with you."

Kazaris blushed and said: "Talking is enough, let's continue the training!"

Karil: "Okay, brother." He smiled.
