Chapter 6
I returned to the apartment to get my books, on the flight over I realised if i wasn't going to university I could live wherever I wanted. Grabbing the ring I looked around the apartment put a few personal effects into the ring and dissapeared.
6 Months later
Manipulating the earth around me I finish with the final room of my new home. A few months ago I set out to plan for the future, I needed to get a base. I needed to make or find a place where I could grow myself and perhaps others. I found it in the canadian rockies. Deep in the rockies I carved out a sizable amount of space and make various rooms and training centres.
I had created a massive entry hall first, truthfully I went a bit overboard. I made the entry hall the size of a football field. So I filled it up with stuff. Floating glaciers, Streams of fire flowing around the roof of the cavern. Small floating islands with trees and small ponds and rivers that changed into water falls. It looked magical, which was the point. I made various staircases to different section throughout the mointinan. Two sets of stairs led downwards to empty rooms, another set went to various large rooms that I made after learning formations. The rooms could be set to various scenarios for training purposes. I also made a space for a future library. The final room I had just finished was my personal room. It had a bed and a living room, and as it was located at the summit of a mountain a damn great view. I also made a space for a tv, for when I got one. The mountain had also been covered in defensive, offensive and illusionary formations.
Furthermore I had made huge progress in understanding my power. I had set rudimentary guidelines for my unique magics and in turn influenced the way they appeared in my soul. Fire I made its form change into a red and black plasmatic fire, its form now appeared as a large snake. Water changed to ice and the form of it in my soul became a ice hawk. Earth became more attuned with metal, this worked very well with one of my original techniques due to the fact the weapons I can now make are very deadly, It shape now appears to be a black silver tiger. Finally wind, wind I made scouting but lethal type of magic. It focused on speed, sharpness and stealth. Its form took as a winged wolf.
I sit for a small time after finishing my mountain base and meditating then I get up and prepare to somewhat rejoin with the rest of the world.
I pack some food rare and valuable gems, even some mana and ki stones into my ring. This would be my revenue. I quickly took off and flew to where my brother resided to catch up with the world.
Arriving quickly at where my brother said his guilds base was I noticed something strange. Apart from ruble there wasn't much else. This posed a problem to me. I didn't have a phone anymore as technology and mana, even ambient stuff don't really mix. Now when I say ambiant I mean just my ambient mana.

Noticing a few people on the ground below I change into normal clothes from my previous quicksilver like robe and descend.
Coming up silently behind a man who appears to be clearing rubble I tap his shoulder and we launch into a brief conversation. Essentially a few monsters had appeared drastically less powerful than the ape but still plenty powerful and this guild wasn't able to regulate the damages from the battle annihilating the city. I gained their new location and moved on, to texas as it would have it.
Flying in I see the place as it was described by the worker, big white and gaudy, I have to say i agreed with him nothing should be this white it was blinding. It was a compound in style with a huge wall encompassing it and had various buildings in the walls. I have no idea how they made it either.
I found my brother fairly easily, He was breaking up a fight between two teenagers. I landed behind him and waited. One of the kids saw me land stared in shock before pointing me out. Kline turns and looks.
“You jackass” Kline said after seeing me
“Nice to see you too” I grin back
“Sword master kline who is this person” One of the teenager piped up
“My brother” kline responded
“Sword master” I giggle
“It's a title” He responds with annoyance evident in his voice.
He dismisses the two kids and we go on a walkabout. He goes on to explain the current state of the world which was fairly interesting. Right now it was the guilds who ran everything and regular people could begin to use magic, with help from the guilds of course. Some guilds had aligned with the gods and the gods in turn could grant magic.
“So the god awful wall is from divine providence” I ask
“Yup, how's it look from the sky” He asks
“Like white shit” I giggle
Then i'm hit with something and go flying.
Normally something with that little power wouldn't even scratch me but i wasn't [repared so i went flying. Now this made me mad, I was never good with assholes and this seemed pretty assholy to me.
I could hear my brother arguing with the assshole, his excuse I made fun of the work of their great god and he in turn used the god's power to smite me. He then goes on to say he will provide a funeral for me because i was kline's brother.
I get up from the rubble and appear behind the guy and tap his shoulder. He turns around with a self absorbed smile and then when he sees me the smile disappears, because I smile right back and punch him in the gut. His body creates shockwaves as it travels through the air and goes through the white wall like it was made of paper. Kline looks at me with approval, and the entourage the douche had looks at me like i'm a monster.
Me and kline say our goodbyes and I hand him a communicator i made with some magic formations. I also told him he would join my group when I had a few recruits.
I then depart with a sonic boom and disappear into the skies.
I wait for the next day before doing anything else. Kline had notified me of a place in canada where lots of guilds had recruiting centres in which they recruited kids who wanted fresh starts or had nothing left, be the reason people of monsters.
It was a unused football stadium they hosted the recruitment in. I appeared over it when it was in full swing and waited to be noticed, once one saw me they all started noticing one by one. The mysterious silver titan who killed the first and one of the most powerful monster to date had suddenly appear above the recruitment arena. People would be dumb if they couldn't come to a conclusion along the lines of he's making a guild.
I grinned from above then descended, I had work to do.
