Chapter 45: I Are you done yet?
After the magician said the direction to the third battalion's camp, which was located near the Green Lake City. Soon after leaving the city, it was possible to see several soldiers patrolling the camp.
Approaching the camp, Elijah and Chloe were holding their stone badges as it was necessary for them to gain permission to pass through soldiers who were around the camp. With the help from the soldiers, it was easy where the new recruits needed to report.
"Ell, look."
Elijah and Chloe were extremely excited as all of the army's air which is very different from what it was on the academy. When they hurried towards the tent where they were supposed to report, they heard an familiar voice coming from within the tent.
"Do you think it's who i think it is?" Elijah looked at Chloe.
Elijah moved his hand slowly as to not attract attention from the one inside the tent to move aside the curtain so he could see who it was inside there.
In an unbelievable coincidence, just as he raised his hand forward, someone was walking out at the same time and an man in elegant clothes walked from the tent. Shit! was the first word to apear inside Elijah's head and he looked at Chloe and just as he thought, her eyes were red as she was about to cry. This was not strange for him because he knew who the man was and it was Chloe's Brother, Noah.
Just as he exited the tent, Noah saw two recruits waiting outside the tent. The first one was an boy, about sixteen years old light brown hair and clear grey eyes. The second was a girl who seemed a bit younger than the boy, had an emerald green hair and two big green eyes, the two of them seemed very close like relatives or lovers. But what intrigued the most was that the girl give him the same feeling as his lost sister, Chloe. And the boy beside her was also familiar to him.
But then he shakes his head as it was impossible to be them as this year they would be around twelve years old and these two seemed much older.
"So you two are new recruits, right? come here." An men's severe voice came from within the tent. It took them a few seconds for them to understand that the man was talking to them and hurriedly proceeded inside.
It didn't seem from the outside, but it was a huge tent filled with all sorts of army supplies, maps, staves and books. And just like he had thought, Chloe's father was also here and was wearing the battalion chief's armor.
And inside, he saw that all the other recruits were already there and there were more than eight logistics soldiers in charge of taking care of the equipment and different from Noah, he had recognized Elijah immediately because the first thing Henry did after arriving in the city was telling him about what happened in the enemy camp. So he knew about Elijah's return and the girl that had come with him. Then one of the logistics soldiers quickly took out a set of equipment composed of white robes, an simple wood staff, an badge with the number 3 engraved on the badge, and handed it over to Elijah while another soldier did the same with Chloe.
Elijah quickly took his equipment and looked through it. There were 2 sets of magician robes, including socks, shoes and a hood, as well a set of a thin leather armor who was for being used inside the robe and the although this staff was not even nearly as powerful and appealing as the other staff he had used on the test. This one was just a piece of runic wood with an small gem on top of it.contemporary romance
Looking around, he saw that aside from Chloe and him, the were twenty recruits. And from those twenty recruits, only 4 were men since the majority of the men of the kingdom did not have much talent for magic and ended up entering in the Warrior Division.
In the Magic Division, the magician robes were divided in colors with the white being the weakest and the purple being the strongest, but all robes had a special function that turned them black on the night so the could do surprise attacks without being noted.
Elijah and Chloe had also received 3 gold coins each as the Chloe's Father said to all recruits. "Welcome to the Third Battalion of the Magic Division. Those gold coins we have give you are your first yearly pay. You all have one day to return home and settle everything with your families, after this you will only be given once for month to go back so use it wisely. Then, gather back here by tomorrow noon. Remember, if any of lose your robes, you will not receive a third one for free and will have to pay for one, Understood?
"Understood!" Elijah immediately took Chloe's hand and walked away quickly and when they were back to the city he take her to a corner and asked with a concerned voice. "Are you okay? i never thought that your father would be our Battalion Chief. Do you think you can continue with this?"
"Yeah, let's go back and we think about this later." From the look on her face, Elijah knew the complexity of what she was feeling right now.
After entering his bedroom, he realized that haven't come for the entire night so he decided to use this time to cultivate.
Entering the Great Hall, he tested a few spells and when he tried to use his void lightning, the lightning got out of his control and hit the middle of the Giant Gate.
Boom!
With the lightning's power the first Rune had disappeared and a strange force rushed out of the gate and the moment when this force touched him, his entire body shocked as he felt he had unlocked something.
The strange force washed over him molding his body as every bit of energy being radiated from his body was disappearing and Elijah fell in panic as his power began to decrease.
"No!"
He was in the Divine Begging realm middle phase, but after a few moments he was back at the initial phase even with him trying to stop it. And when he looked at the transparent core on the other side of the great hall, Elijah saw it was cracking while a liquid flowed from it. Just as his power was back to the super human realm his core was already turned into an small lake floating around the grey vortex above his head.
Then he wakes up in the middle of a somewhere and lowering his head, Elijah saw that he was covered in blood while the body of dozens of people wearing demonic masks were lying around him.
And at this moment, he heard someone calling him from behind.
"Ryn, are you done yet?"
