“Hahahaha what if I suddenly kill you though?” the man said

“Well that’s up to you if you want a fight” he replied

“Hmm, I like your attitude, say do you want to be my disciple?” the man said

“I don’t even know you so why would I just accept you, and what can you even teach me” he replied, actually he is still on guard against this man because his father told him before to be careful against strangers specially if he saw some stranger in this forest, he asked why but his father will just tell “him just listen to me”.

“Well my name is Kodus, now you know me, I can teach you many things and I can even get you out of this forest” the man said while grinning

*Is this guy so desperate or is he dumb? But it doesn’t look like the latter so maybe he’s so desperate? Well considering his options maybe I can actually just accept him? Since I don’t even know what to do in this forest anymore since my parents are gone, maybe I can just accept him but first I need to know his strength of course.* he thought and said “First of all why would you want me? And second, are you even strong enough to teach me?”

“Hahahahaha, you are actually asking if I’m strong enough to teach you? Of course I am and why would I want you? I just wanted to pass my knowledge and look for a loyal disciple at the same time, and I think you are capable of that, don’t worry if you wanna see my strength then look at this” as the man said that he suddenly disappeared from the spot before and reappeared on the back of the child. “Strong enough?” he asked

He was dumbfounded at the speed the man showed him, he just saw the man suddenly disappearing and then suddenly hearing the man behind him, he quickly turned around and he saw the man just right in front of him the man while still grinning, he was now looking at the man with a fearful expression.

“Hahaha, don’t worry I am just showing you my speed, now do you accept me as your master?” the man asked while smiling

He took a deep breath as he calmed his mind once again. “If you’re fine with a weak disciple like me then I don’t mind, I accept you as my master”

“Good, Good, You are now my disciple, but I don’t even know your name so tell me” the man said

“It’s Pirius, and can you at least help me bury my parents body first?” he said that as he looked at his parents body showing a sad expression again.

“Don’t worry let’s just finish this fast” Kodus said

Pirius saw Kodus suddenly waving his hand and the earth around where the body of Pirius parents where suddenly started sinking. It stopped sinking at around 5 meter deep as Kodus waved his hands again and the earth started covering the hole.

Pirius was shocked, He never thought that this man who he just took as master can actually do those kind of things, he did not even know what to call it, he lacked the knowledge to understand what his master just did, so he asked “Master how do you do that?”

“Oh you don’t know what magic is? Looks like you are more isolated than I thought” Kodus replied slowly

“No I don’t, how do you even do magic?” Pirius asked

“Oh, it’s simple you just need to imagine then let your mana do what you want, I will tell you more about it as we travel, come follow me” Kodus said as he started walking in the forest.

Pirius followed but he thought about his things left at his house but he quickly dispersed it as he followed his Master.

As they were walking Pirius asked “So Master what is mana?”

Kodus did not stop walking as he says to Pirius “Mana is the World Energy, Mana can be absorbed in our body, to be exact we borrow it from the World, It is known that after we die the Mana or Energy we absorbed will return to the World again, as to not lose the World Energy but there’s actually no need to worry because even if we don’t return the Energy to the World we won’t run out because it’s still producing it even as we talk. So returning the Energy we absorbed will actually just add more Energy making this World Energy Prosperous, but not as pure as before we absorbed it, so there’s a downside to it too.
