Kim and Vas Allen followed the road to the country of Andra for a couple of days
Kim almost as if he has been holding in a question said
"Hey Vas, can I ask you a question?"
Kim said in a reluctant voice
"Yeah, ask away"
Kim thought for a few seconds before he asked his question
"What do you think the Grembling was talking about?"
"Whatever you mean?"
"I'm talking about the last thing he had said, about the beam of light coming up to him"
"Beam of light huh?"
"Mhm"
Kim stared at Vas, he noticed that Vas was thinking, almost as if he knew what that beam of light was
"Beam of light huh? I'll probably say that— it was a God…"
"God?"
"Yeah, that beam of light was probably an avatar of a God"
"Avatar of a God..? But why?"
"That is what I like to know as well"
Kim was confused by what Vas had just said
"What do you mean?"
"Well, God hates all of its creations"
"Most God think of us as small pests…"
"Where they refuse to interact with us, where they don't want anything to do with us"
"Yet that God, goes out of its way to meet with that Grembling…."
"…"
Kim stayed silent, he stared at Vas Allen
"A God huh?…"
"Yeah, what made you ask that?"
"Well when I was talking with the Old Man, I'd ask him how to use magic"
"He told me that we have to make a deal with God"
Vas Allen stared at Kim, he looked concerned
"He told me that I won't be able to use any magic…"
Vas Allen looks at the road ahead and then back at Kim
"Why do you want to use magic anyway?"
Vas Allen said in a low tone voice
"Because when we broke free from the Grembling, I felt so useless after that"
"While you were fighting that Grembling, I couldn't do anything but watch…"
Vas Allen didn't say anything
"I want to use magic because I don't want to feel that way again"
"I don't want to feel like I'm not needed…"
Vas Allen let out a long sigh
He hit Kim on the of his head gently
"Ow- what was that for?"
"Because that was one of the dumbest things I have ever heard!"
Kim strokes his head to where Vas Allen had hit him
"You don't need to do anything" Vas Allen reassured Kim
Kim stared at Vas Allen, not satisfied with his response
Before Kim can say anything. Vas Allen pointed out to Kim
"Look, over there!"
A wagon lies ahead of the road, Kim and Vas Allen run to it
"Hurry up kid, fix it before I hit you again!"
The kid struggles to pick up the wagon wheel
Vas Allen and Kim were horrified by what they witnessed
Vas Allen charged up a high-level magic spell
There he tried to hit the man with it, but before the spells came into contact with the man. A barrier has been put up
Kim's caught a glimpse of something moving in the corner of his eye
"Woah, you trying to kill us?" the Man said in a surprise tone
"How did you— leave that kid alone!"
"Why should we? We bought the kid fair and square"
Vas Allen's disgusted expression can be seen in front of everyone
"We…?" thought Vas Allen
"How did you block my spell?"
The Man chuckled "It wasn't me that blocked the spell… it was the kid!"
"The kid? He looks so young… and yet he's able to block one of my spells…" thought Vas Allen
"But why?" Vas Allen looks at the kid waiting for his response
The kid said nothing
"See, the kid enjoys this type of life!" the Man says in laughter
Vas Allen before he could cast any more spells saw that the kid had fixed the broken wagon wheel
"Look like it's our time to go— and If I see y'all two again, I'll make you regret it!"
Vas Allen and Kim stared at the wagon going off in the distance
"Arghhh!"
Kim could see in frustration Vas Allen's face
"What was that about?" Kim asks
"I DON'T KNOW!!!" shout out Vas Allen
"Vas not the type of person to easily get mad…" Kim thought
"Why was the kid protecting that man?"
Vas Allen said in an angry tone
"I-i don't know… maybe the kid was trying to protect us"
"Protect? Protect us from what?!?! It was just us, the kid, and that man!"
Kim didn't know what to say, he didn't want to make Vas angrier
"Ughh!!"
Kim can hear Vas Allen groan out of frustration
"Well, it looks like they are also going to the country of Andra…"
Kim trying to calm down Vas Allen
Vas Allen didn't say anything, he simply just stared at Kim
"Uhh- Vas? Do you want to rest for a bit?"
"No, no, I'm fine! Let's just go!" in a stern voice
There they walk in silence
Not one of them speaks
"I never seen Vas this riled up before" Kim thought to himself
"Could it be related to his past? I mean I want to ask him but I don't think I should…"
And was Kim right, he knew not to ask a person when they are in an angry mood
They walk and walk, and walks
The trip was silent, you could even hear the grass dance with the wind it was that silent
Kim and Vas Allen approaches a large wall
Kim is amazed
"Is this Andra?" Asked Kim
Vas Allen looks at Kim and stares at him
He reluctantly said
"Yeah… this is Andra"
Kim can still hear that Vas Allen's is still mad
"Do you know anything about the country?"
Kim trying to distract Vas Allen from what just happened
Vas Allen let out a sigh- "fortunately I do"
"Woah- tell me more about it!"
"Well, did you know that the country of Andra was the only one that didn't have a scratch during the " War Of The Great Tech?"?
" "War Of The Great Tech"? " Kim repeated what Vas Allen just said
Kim can see that Vas Allen's mood lifted
Vas Allen begins to talk about the "War Of The Great Tech" to Kim
Kim stares at him happily
"Looks like he's not angry anymore"
