Well well well, what do we have here?, you favourite lazy author releasing 2 chapters in a week? The world must be ending.
Well the reason for that is I just decided to get a cheep laptop to write on it instead of my phone and it is way faster tbh, plus I had a few extra days of work so that helped.
Anyhow enjoy.

“Faster faster.” urged Levi as he rode atop Acnologia’s big form, which seemed to have gotten bigger since their fight, as they rushed through the sky at insane speeds, clouds zipped past them and the spirit world sun on their left almost blinding them with its light, in front of them was a flock of eagles speeding away from them.
How did they end up in this situation? After he accepted the parrot sage's invitation to stay in his domain Levi spent the first few days training, relaxing, and thinking of a way to get back home when he was suddenly called in by the sage.
Apparently, the parrots had a natural enemy in the spirit realm, the eagles, and the sage had asked his help to take care of that problem, of course the choice was his but he wasn't going to reject giving a helping hand after the help he got from them and staying in their home and eating their food for nothing.
And so that's how Levi ended up as a bird hunter along with Acnologia, at least he had gotten a quest for it.
[Quest: Hunt the enemy.
You have sided with the parrots in the spirit realm and they have asked your help to fight their eternal enemies, the eagles.
Objective 1: Kill 10 Eagles.
Objective 2: take at least 1 eagle hostage.
Reward 1: plus five cubic meters to inventory, 5000 system points.
Reward 2: +1 to wisdom and intelligence]
Seeing the second reward for the mission Levi couldn't help but get excited, that would increase his chi reserves, even by a little, which would help him switch into a physical body later when he finds a way into the physical world, it seemed that even the system was trying to help him.
Conjuring a bow and arrow Levi aimed before he fired a fast-moving arrow at one of the eagles hitting him straight on, of course, it helped that the eagles were just fleeing in a straight line which was almost like hitting a stationary target. Also, his weapon mastery seemed to include bows which made it all the more easier.
The bow and arrow were part of his Divine armament after he had leveled it up, if he had to describe this skill in one word then it was BROKEN, the more it leveled up the more weapons he would get access to and it wasn't limited to only one weapon per level, and even armor was an option, it seemed that his gate of Babylon dream wasn't too far away now.
All in all, weapon mastery and Divine armament were perfect for each other, just as he finished his train of thought the arrow hit its target.
[Killed a spirit realm creature “Eagle” +130 Exp]
Sadly it was becoming harder and harder to Level up, these small time creatures were still useful for the time being but before long he would have to find bigger prey.
Looking at the front he could only see one eagle left alive flying away from them as if his life depended on it, which to be fair it did.
Disabling the bow, Levi crouched before activating Limit breaker for barely a fraction of a second, this was something he had figured out during his stay here, it seemed that as long as he didn't abuse it like the first time he did limit breaker was actually a pretty useful ability, the most he will have to suffer if he used it this way was exhausting himself sooner and a little muscle ache that disappears with a bit of rest.
Relying on the boost given to him by limit breaker’s momentary activation he jumped as far as he could toward the eagle, shooting towards it like a bullet and scaring the poor avian out of his feathers. Acnologia was even pushed down by the force of Levi’s insane jump, releasing grunts and roars at him in the process as he tried to stabilize himself.
Sadly that jump didn't seem to be enough as Levi lost momentum a little distance away from the eagle who was getting away, ‘Shit.’ he cursed as he saw his target getting away from him, not willing to let all his effort go to waste Levi again activated Limit breaker for a split second before turning it off again, getting the boost he needed.
Ignoring the ache and discomfort it brought him he focused again on the eagle and conjured a golden shining net from Divine armament hurling it as far as he could towards his target and catching him in it perfectly, with his other hand he conjured a golden shining chain before twirling it around and swinging it at Acnologia scaring the poor dragon senseless as he tried to stop mid-air, fortunately the chain reached him and wrapped around his leg tightly stopping Levi’s fall.

“Sigh, that damn parrot is getting a killer deal of our little cooperation, he's definitely not providing as much value.” complained Levi as he hung from Acnologia’s leg with a chain, Acnologia also nodded at his words agreeing with him.
“Let's go down it's getting a little uncomfortable.” said Levi to which Acnologia nodded again, unfortunately for him the dragon didn't immediately descend straight down, instead he turned the way they came from and started going down slowly, covering a distance of about one kilometer before reaching the ground.
Before long they were on the ground and Levi finally understood why Acnologia’s came all the way here to land as he stared with a deadpan face at the dragon breathing fire on the dead eagles’ corpses they killed before, burning their feathers and cooking them at the same time before swallowing them whole.
“Ha-ah.” Sighing Levi went towards the trembling eagle he captured who was seeing what was happening to his dead comrades with frightened eyes and tightened the net around him.
Another useful thing that made divine armament godly in his opinion was that his conjuration wouldn't disappear unless he wanted to, they might take energy to conjure in the first place but after that they will remain unless he dissipates them.
Dragging the now tightly bound eagle Levi headed towards Acnologia who was finished with his meal, throwing the net in front of him and hopped on his back Acnologia understood without Levi needing to tell him anything, as he caught the net with bought his feet and flew back towards the parrot’s abode.

Levi was now on his bed in the room given to him by the sage, sitting in a cross-legged position seeming to be lost in meditation. He was in fact checking his quest rewards and the skills that leveled up, and he figured that meditation was the best cover for it.
Acnologia was laying next to him with his eyes closed, he seemed to be in deep sleep but Levi knew that he was fully aware of his surroundings and would be ready for action at a moment's notice.
[Quest: Hunt the enemy - COMPLETED.
You have sided with the parrots in the spirit realm and they have asked your help to fight their eternal enemies, the eagles.
Objective 1: Kill 10 Eagles.
Objective 2: take at least 1 eagle hostage.
Reward 1: plus five cubic meters to inventory, 5000 system points.
Reward 2: +1 to wisdom and intelligence]
The rewards for hunting the eagles were pretty neat, more inventory space was always welcomed, it was already starting to get cramped with all the stuff he was stuffing in there but now he could put even more things in it, at least time seemed to be stopped in his inventory so he could store food and fruits for as long as he want and enjoy it later.
‘There was also the addition of one point to both wisdom and intelligence adding 20 points to my Chi.’ he thought as he saw his Chi increase by 20 points.
‘As for the 5000 system points, although I don't plan to use them for now I am sure they will come in handy sometime in the future.’ he thought, a satisfied smile on his face clearly pleased with the rewards.
His spirit body was already at level 18, it was leveling up pretty quickly compared to the other skills, maybe being in the spirit realm helped or maybe being in his spiritual state gave him a boost, or it could be both, nonetheless, he wasn't complaining.
He was looking forward to what ability he'd unlock when he reached level 20 if there was an ability that is, with any luck it would be a skill to cross over to the physical world but he didn't hold any hopes, just as he was about to check his status screen as it has been a long time since he's done that
“Found you.” uttered a voice from behind making Levi’s hair stand straight and a shiver to go down his spine, he hadn't felt anything before the voice spoke, if it had wanted to kill him it would have been way too easy.
Acnologia was the same as he jumped from his sleeping position and growled at the new arrival, Levi jumped from his sitting position immediately and was next to Acnologia in no time conjuring a pair of knives and holding them in a reverse grip, but suddenly he was dumbstruck as he noticed the identity of the new arrival.
Acnologia was still growling and almost attacking the new arrival when Levi spoke just one word, “How?.” he said not able to believe what his eyes were seeing.
In front of him stood none other than Tobirama still wearing the southern water tribe clothes and with his hands crossed, he had a huge smirk on his face as he saw Levi’s reaction, he was obviously pleased with himself for managing to shock him as such.
“Good to see you too, master.” said Tobirama with a smile at the still shocked Levi. Acnologia had a confused expression on his face as he looked between the two, he wasn't stupid though and soon realized that the new arrival wasn't an enemy so he just went back to sleep not caring what they were going to talk about, it did though have an annoyed look on his face at his rest being interrupted that maybe only Levi could recognize.
“Honestly knowing you I shouldn't be surprised.” said Levi helplessly disabling the daggers and sitting on a table that was to the side, mentioning Tobirama to do the same.
Sitting down Tobirama kept staring at Acnologia with an interested expression with the latter not paying him any attention, “He's a friend I made during my stay here.” said Levi getting Tobirama's attention on him, and also Acnologia’s who also opened his eyes to stare at Levi before closing them again.
“So do you care to explain how you ended up in the spirit realm of all places and how you found me?.” asked Levi with a look of interest on his face, he really wanted to know how Tobirama had managed to do it.
“Ha-ah, where do I start.” said Tobirama, sighing with a tired tone before he started to tell Levi about everything that had happened since he disappeared.
***
An: Would anyone believe me if I said I didn't plan for Tobirama to show up here, it just felt right that if anyone can find Levi it would be Tobirama.
