Heavenly Saga

"The great uncle of my master!?" Kraftvoll said with a shocked face.

"Yep. He's my old master! He took me in when I was orphaned due to an accident and he trained me to what I am today. It's a pity that I didn't have that much talent which is why I was not able to enter Verrater Academy. It's my only regret to not be able to reach his expectations."

Kraftvoll couldn't believe what he heard. He couldn't believe that a relative of the King was currently living in the Tellaro Village.

"So Owner Steph is my master's aunt? If they have that kind of background, why are they living in a secluded village like this?" Kraftvoll asked with all curiosity in his eyes.

Stark tried to enlighten Kraftvoll because he knew that he was still inexperienced in the ways of the world. He explained to him, "For them, living here is more comfortable than it is living in the royal capital. There, they have great power and authority but that doesn't mean that they have it easy."

Stark continued his explanation. "Along with their power and wealth, they also have great responsibilities at the same time. Master Stephen decided to spend his time away from those things. He wanted to spend the rest of his time peacefully." Kraftvoll quickly understood what Stark meant when he said that.

Stark smiled after realizing something. He said to Kraftvoll, "Kraftvoll, my boy, you already reached the Entry Seishin General rank, did you?"

Kraftvoll's face suddenly turned happy and he instantly answered Stark, "Yes! I've been in a slump for many weeks, but at last, I finally broke through."

Stark did not know whether to laugh or cry. He thought to himself, 'What an amazing child! I was double his age when I attained that rank! This is the real reason why those bastards of the Dark Alliance attacked our city back then! What a terrifying talent! Or maybe he was just driven by his urge to revenge, after all, his parent fell from the hands of those shitheads.'

Stark can only be amazed by Kraftvoll's terrifying talent. He thought of asking Kraftvoll about how he was since something like that happened to his biological parents, but he decided to not reopen old wounds.

"Kraftvoll, I said to you earlier that I am retiring as a soldier, right?" said Stark. "Yeah. How about it?" asked Kraftvoll.

Stark's face suddenly turned more serious than before. He started talking, "I decided to pass you my best seishin spell. You can use it now but you can only utilize its full strength when you attained the Seishin Sage rank." Kraftvoll's face suddenly brightened after hearing what Stark said to him.

"Really!? You're gonna teach me a seishin spell? I really loved the seishin spell that you passed to me back then, when I reached the Seishin Captain rank, Sir Stark!" he said with a wonderful smile at his face.

Stark was elated after hearing that one of his seishin spells was used by Kraftvoll. He said, "Really? I'm so happy that you have been treasuring the Fire Burst seishin spell that I taught you back then! Okay, it's decided then!"

"The seishin spell that I am about to teach you this time is the upgraded version of that seishin spell! Or to be precise it's the original seishin spell because the Fire Burst seishin spell is the downgraded version of this seishin spell."

Kraftvoll's face turned even brighter than before. He was filled with great excitement like he was when Stark said to him that he will teach him a new seishin spell two months ago. "Let's go to a place where I can teach it to you. Your talent allows you to learned a seishin spell when you're concentrating, right?"

"Okay!" Kraftvoll replied to Stark. Kraftvoll went shortly to his friends to say what he was about to do. Belle and the other representatives of their class nodded in response.

After that, Kraftvoll and Stark went on their way, where Stark can teach Kraftvoll the seishin spell he promised him to teach.

After they reached a tree, which was bigger than the previous tree Stark used to demonstrate Fire Burst, outside the village, Stark started to demonstrate the seishin spell.

"Get away from me, Kraftvoll. This will become a little messy," said Stark as he went to the position. Kraftvoll decided to follow Stark's command so he went away from him.

"Ye who represents destruction, heed my words, destroy those who refuse to yield to me, Explosion!"
