I've read the replies to my last post and i enjoyed the responses, almost all of which will be accepted. The person who said no romantic relationships, I'm going to add someone but the whole relationship is going to be one sided (i.e. only she's is going to like him).

After summoning my mount again and venturing for about two hours, I come upon the capital. The realisation hits me that a mount like this won't be easily accepted by the people. I dismiss my mount and start walking through the border of the forest.
To my right is a road that leads to the gate, the gate being easily seeable from here. The gate has a large amount of people in the front trying to get in, though the security seems to be surprisingly tight. The security probably won't let an eight year-old boy simply go through the gate, so I change my appearance with magic.
"{Permanent disguise}."
The small, blue, magic circle in my hand forms around me and my body turns pure white. It morphs into a 2 meter tall man with basically the same features as my previous form.
I slowly walk towards the gate, approaching the entry point.
"Keep in a straight line!"
The guard sighs after commanding us, I slowly funnel through the gate after going through several physical examinations, next comes the magical investigations.
"Quite an interesting eye you got there." A mage-looking man asks, he has pale skin and dark eyes.
"I was born with it, is there a problem?" I reply trying to find the meaning of his comment.
"Well it's most-likely a born magical ability. I'm going to cast examination magic to find the purpose of that eye."
"Ok..." I say quickly casting voiceless anti-investigation magic, well this magic only affects my stats.

"Well...it's definitely not in our records; Eye of Infinity allows the user to cast magic with his/her eye without using an incantation or magic circle, also allows the user to perceive souls and magic visually." The mage says explaining the ablility to use it.
(Crap, I forgot to read my abilities.)
"W-whoa, this could get you into the mage's guild instantly, I could recommend you if you want."
"No, I'd rather not get too tied to a place, I'm only staying here temporarily."
"O...Okay."
After that I was ushered through the area into the City.
The city was densely packed with stone houses with hay roofs. The main road had many vendors on the sides, and had different carriages, from High-class to low-class. I looked up at the sign hanging on a wooden arch.
'Market District'.
(Apparently even the nobles' servants get stuff from here.)

(3rd-Person POV)
In a room decorated with carved pillars and marble walls, a man sits at a table, along with seven other men.
"The mage the Aselund boy spoke of, cannot be simply written off!" A man whose face is covered in a veil, says.
"I realise that! But we cannot simply search the entire Empire for him! And besides a mage who can cast even ninth-tier magic can't be simply captured!" The youngest one there, a person who looks barely older than nine-teen, and also wearing the most intricate clothing there, also the emperor.
"Then what do we do?" the veiled-man asks again.
"All we can do; wait."
